Will AI & Drone Warfare be the Next Atomic Bomb?

The New Jersey drone mystery has gotten Glenn thinking: Is this American military technology that we’re just not admitting we have yet? Either way, with the rise of AI, Glenn predicts that the next war will be breathtaking, unlike anything we’ve ever seen. Just like the atomic bomb changed the world forever, so will the AI, drone, and quantum computing weapons that may be released in the next war. Glenn lays out what he believes it will look like and why it will likely make us say, "Dear God, what have we done?"

GLENN: So I want to -- we asked what's your name again? Yeah. Bob.

Justin Buttrill, our chief researcher. Former military intelligence.

STU: Or Bob.

GLENN: Or Bob. Sometimes called Bob, Jeff, whatever. But I wanted him to stay in.

Because we were talking about quantum computing. And how far that is. Stu, explain what Google just did again.

STU: So they came out with the new chip. They have announced. They have this chip called Willow.

It was able to complete a problem in five minutes, while the same task would have taken today's supercomputers ten septillion years, which is longer than the universe has existed.

GLENN: Okay. Okay.

So, by the way, think of that. That's what that can do in five minutes.

You have a problem, you're dealing with. You're like, you know what, let me sleep on it.

Do you know how long that is, to a quantum computer?

By the time you get back, it's like, who are you again?

STU: Right. It's already evolved.

GLENN: It's so far ahead.

So everything is about to change.

We started to talk about this.

Because of the drones over New Jersey. And New York City.

They're -- we think they may be something -- new technology, that we have. And -- and others may have.

That we have reverse engineered.

That's what has been planted in our heads here for a while.

But war and everything else is -- is going to change.

And this time, it's going to be -- even if it doesn't get to nuclear war.

It's going to be horrifying.

Absolutely horrifying.

Everything that we have.

Aircraft carriers, everything else.

It's done. Done.

Now, let me take you through this.

The British, when we fought in the revolutionary war. They were like, what, these animals.

They're savages. They won't line up, so we can shoot them. Right?

We used you're brains, instead of everybody else's bodies.

And we won. But that changed war.

Then the next war we had, that was really horrifying was the Civil War.

And that was horrifying to Americans. And I know from diaries in the family.

My great, great grandfather, who fought for the union was -- he came back. He was in Andersonville. And he came back, and he was never the same.

And people weren't the same after that. Because of the 600 thousand dead, in our country, at a time when we had how many million?

Three. I mean, the blood was just everywhere.

Then we -- we had other wars. And they -- everybody was pretty much okay.

And then the big one was World War I.

Because we went out on the battlefield. Remember, the Gatling gun was not used in the Civil War. Because everybody thought it would be a waste of ammunition.

Wow!

That would have solved things pretty quickly if one side or the other would have had that.

But we come with a Gatling gun.

And we bring it on the -- you know, on the back of a wagon.

Dragged by a horse.

Okay?

In World War I. That's all mechanized. And no one saw that coming. No one knew what that was going to be like.

People had started to make tanks.

We started to use air warfare. We started to use gas, and science.

All of this stuff was used. And people came back, and literally were shell-shocked for the rest of their life.

They had never seen anything like that.

The quickness of death changed war forever.

Then World War II happens. And we fight it pretty much the same way.

What affected people, for a very long time, was war. They were affected, just like everybody else in every other war.

And every other epic.

However, you were -- you were really set back, if you walked into one of the concentration camps. And you saw how science was being used.

Or you witnessed -- witnessed the explosion of the atomic bomb. You never recovered from that.

And I know this used to be top secret. This is from major Robert A. Louis.

He was on -- was it the Enola Gay, that bombed Hiroshima?

So he was on the Enola Gay, and he was the navigator, I think. And his job was also to make notes of what was happening.

This is his -- this is the original text, from the Enola Gay, in his handwriting.

He says, 0730, we are loaded. The bomb is now alive. It's kind of a funny feeling, knowing it's right in back of you.

Knock wood. We started our climb to 30,000 feet at 0748. Well, folks, it's not long now

At 18,500 feet, I sat on autopilot for the last time, until bomb's away. I checked with the crew at 20,000 feet.

So far, everything is satisfactory.

We've just reached our altitude at 0830. He's saying with a report primary, target is the best target.

Everything is going well. So far, it looks like we're making the bomb run at Hiroshima. Right now, we're 25 millions from the empire. And everyone has a big, hopeful look on his face.

Okay. It won't be very long before it happens, now.

So he says, they will be -- because he's taking minute by minute about what's happening.

And he writes at the bottom of page five. There will be a short intermission while we bomb our target. So they drop the bomb. They have to be up at 35,000 feet.

And they turn the plane, you know, they're trying to beat hell away from it.

But they also need to observe it.

He said, here's a brief blow by blow, description of the bombing run.

We turned off our IP, and had about a four-minute run on a perfectly open target.

Tom scrutinized, on his briefed AP, and let go.

For the next minute, no one knew what to expect.

The bombardier and the right seat jockey, or pilot, both forgot to put on their dark glasses.

And therefore, witnessed the flash, which was terrific. Then in about 15 seconds, after the flash, there were two very distinct slaps on the ship. Then there was physical affect, we felt.

We turned the ship, so we could observe the results. And there in front of our eyes, without a doubt, was the greatest explosion man had ever witnessed. Three exclamation points. The city was nine-tenths covered in smoke of a boiling and large column, a white cloud, in less than three minutes.

It undulated with buildings and fire, as they were blowing up. Then, that undulating cloud, reached 30,000 feet. And then went to at least 50,000 feet.

I am certain the entire crew felt this experience was more than any human had ever thought possible.

It just seems impossible to comprehend.

Just how many in Japan, did we kill?

I honestly have the feeling of groping for words, to explain this.

Or I might explain, my God, what have we done?

So right before they drop it, he says, we have smiles on our face.

Three minutes after they drop it. He says, my God, what have we done?

So this was the next big change in war. But it was really, up until the '80s. It was theory. Nobody had really seen it.

We knew it was going to be bad. We were afraid of it.

But only the people who actually witnessed it, said, dear God, what have we done?

Okay. That changed war.

That changed everything for -- since that day, we have all been saying, let's just not get to nuclear war.

In the '80s, we all learned from that -- that movie, the day after, which was on TV.

And Gorbachev, and Reagan both came together and said, this can never be fought. Because it can never be won.

And we thought we were past it.

Now we're there again.

But that's not what war may look like, this next time.

It may get there, quickly.

But that's not what war -- war this time, is going to take the breath of everyone away. Because it won't be humanized.

It's beyond mechanized. It's computerized.

And so now, it will happen at such a rate of speed, you won't be able to comprehend.

Do you agree with that?

JASON: Oh, completely.

And what's interesting to me, in hearing you read that, I'm actually more interested in his comments before they dropped the bomb. Less so, on afterwards.

Because before, remember, if you watched Oppenheimer, the scientists didn't know what was going to happen. They said, it will either be a big explosion. Or a chain reaction. The entire world will combust. And we're all dead.

So they didn't know. What's about to happen?

Very similar to today! And going along on your theory of, we're getting rid of the old weapons before these new weapons are unveiled.

GLENN: These new AI weapons.

JASON: They don't what an they're about to set off!

What era this unleashes. What's going to happen.

GLENN: Do we happen to have the audio?

We played it a few days ago. Guy from San Francisco told me about buying Bitcoin. Marc Andreessen.

STU: You remembered because of the billion dollars you lost by not listening to him.

GLENN: I think it was 2 billion now that I would have been worth, had I listened to Marc Andreessen with personal advice. And I'm like, eh. What does he know?

Ugh! Anyway --

STU: A lot, apparently.

GLENN: A lot. Yeah, a lot more than me.

We had it a couple of days ago.

Let me take a one minute break.

See if you can find it real quick.

Because this is stunning, what the White House told him.

It's why -- you notice, all of a sudden, Silicon Valley was like, yeah, you know what, I think I prefer Donald Trump. There's a reason. And he's the first to spill the beans on it.

GLENN: It does not make sense. We're just looking up on CNN, talking about these drones. The White House says that they're -- they don't know what it is.

But there's nothing to worry about.

How could you possibly say that?

JASON: That New Jersey rep, I think he's a Democrat. He said, this is unacceptable. That we can't identify them.

Some of them.

But then he follows it right back up, just like you said. With, yeah. But we're not concerned that it's --

GLENN: How would you not know it's a public safety rep?

Unless someone high up told you, hey, don't worry.

GLENN: So weird. So weird.

So let me show you how close we are to absolute insanity. This is Marc Andreessen, on Bari Weiss. Just I think, last week. Talking about a meeting, last fall at the White House, talking about AI. Listen!

VOICE: We have meetings in DC in May, where we talked to them about this. And the meetings were absolutely horrifying. And we came out, basically, deciding we had to endorse Trump.

VOICE: Marc, add just a little color to absolutely horrifying. What did you hear in those meetings?

VOICE: They said, look, AI -- AI is a technology, basically, that the government is going to completely control. This is not going to be a startup thing.

They actually said, flatout, to us. Don't do AI startups. Don't fund AI startups. That's not something we will allow to happen. They will not be allowed to exist. There's no point.

They basically said, AI will be a game of two or three big companies. Working closely with the government.

And we're going to basically wrap them in a -- I'm paraphrasing. We will wrap them in a government cocoon. We will protect them from competition.

We will control them. And we will dictate what they do.

And then I said, well -- I said, I don't understand how you will walk this down so much. The math for AI. Is out there.

It's being taught out there.

They literally said, during the time Cold War. We classified entire areas of physics. And took them out of the research community. And like entire branches of physics basically went dark and didn't succeed.

And that if we decide we need to, we will do the same thing to the math underneath AI.

VOICE: Wow.

VOICE: And I said, I just learned two very important things. Because I wasn't aware of the former. And I wasn't even aware that you were conceiving of doing it to the ladder.

And so they basically just said, yeah, we're going to take total control of the entire thing, and just do.

VOICE: For the listener, what was their argument?

VOICE: Well, it's -- so this gets into this whole like, these debates around AI safety. AI policy.

So there's sort of several dimensions on it, and I'll do my best.

So one is to the extent, this stuff is relevant to the military, which it is. Like, if you draw an analogy between AI and autonomous weapons, being like the new thing that will determine who wins and loses war, then you draw an analogy to the Cold War, that was nuclear power, and that was the atomic bomb.

And the federal government. The federal government didn't let startups go up and build atomic bombs. Right? You had the Manhattan Project. And everything was classified.

And at least according to them, they classified, down to the level of actual mathematics.

And -- and, you know, they technically controlled everything. And, you know, look, that determined a lot of the shape of the world.

Right? So there's that. Then there's the other -- that's part one. Then look, I think part two. There's the social control aspect to it.

Which is where the censorship comes right back. Which is the exact same dynamic we've had with social media censorship. And how it's basically been weaponized, and how the government became entwined with social media censorship, which is one of the real scandals of the last decade.

Like a real problem. A real constitutional problem. Like, that is happening at like hyper speed and AI.

And, you know, these are the same people who have been using social media censorship against their political enemies. These are the people who have been doing de-banking against their political enemies.

They basically, they want to use AI the same way.

And then look, I think the third is, I think this generation of Democrats, the ones in the White House, under Biden, they became very anticapitalist.

And they wanted to go back to a much more of a centralized, controlled, planned economy. And you saw that in many aspects of their policy.

But I think, quite frankly, they think that the idea that the private sector plays an important role is not high up on their priority list. And they think that generally companies are bad, and capitalism is bad. And entrepreneurs are bad. And they've said that a thousand different ways.

And, you know, they demonize entrepreneurs as much as they can.

GLENN: I --

STU: Huh.

GLENN: That's kind of like the Pentagon coming out and saying, oh, by the way, UFOs are real.

Let's move on. I mean, what he just said is -- you know it's true. And the first one is the only one that you go, okay. Well, I kind of see that.

I don't want people making nuclear weapons. But you're not going to -- it will only be very, very, very big companies, because it will be quantum computing, with AI. That will control everything.

So that will only be government level or Google level kind of companies.

That's scary enough. But then when you put on top of that, you put what he said, then there's the social control aspect.

Oh, my gosh.

The world is about to change. And, you know, where I started, the show today was -- you know, we -- we -- we have to know the truth. This is why Dow Jones and everything else is so important.

They need to declassify all of this stuff.

We need to know, what we can trust. What's true. What's not.

Because otherwise, everything runs out of our control, entirely.

And we need to be able to trust and know, are we being manipulated, or not?

And the answer right now is absolutely yes.

The Globalist Elites' Dystopian Plan for YOUR Future | Glenn Beck Chalkboard Breakdown

There are competing visions for the future of America which are currently in totally different directions. If the globalist elites have their way, the United States will slide into a mass surveillance technocracy where freedoms are eroded and control is fully centralized. Glenn Beck heads to the chalkboard to break down exactly what their goal is and why we need to hold the line against these ominous forces.

Barack & Michelle tried to END divorce rumors. It DIDN'T go well

Former president Barack Obama recently joined his wife Michelle Obama and her brother on their podcast to finally put the divorce rumors to rest … but it didn’t exactly work. Glenn Beck and Pat Gray review the awkward footage, including a kiss that could compete for “most awkward TV kiss in history.”

Transcript

GLENN: Now, let me -- let me take you to some place. I think kind of entertaining.

Michelle Obama has a podcast. Who knew?

She does it with her brother. Who knew? It's -- you know, I mean, it's so -- it's a podcast with two brothers. Right?

And -- and it -- they wanted to address the rumors, that they're getting a divorce. And this thing seems so staged.

I want you to -- listen to this awkward exchange on the podcast.

Cut one please.

VOICE: Wait, you guys like each other.

MICHELLE: Oh, yeah. The rumor mill. It's my husband, y'all! Now, don't start.

OBAMA: It's good to be back. It was touch-and-go for a while.

VOICE: It's so nice to have you both in the same room today.

OBAMA: I know. I know.

MICHELLE: I know, because when we aren't, folks things we're divorced. There hasn't been one moment in our marriage, where I thought about quitting my man.

And we've had some really hard times. We've had a lot of fun times. A lot of adventures. And I have become a better person because of the man I'm married to.

VOICE: Okay. Don't make me cry.

PAT: Aw.

GLENN: I believed her. Now, this is just so hokey.

VOICE: And welcome to IMO.

MICHELLE: Get you all teared up. See, but this is why I can't -- see, you can take the hard stuff, but when I start talking about the sweet stuff, you're like, stop. No, I can't do it.

VOICE: I love it. I'm enjoying it.

MICHELLE: But thank you, honey, for being on our show. Thank you for making the time. We had a great --

VOICE: Of course, I've been listening.

PAT: What? No!

GLENN: They're not doing good. They're not doing good.

Okay. And then there was this at the beginning. And some people say, this was very awkward. Some people say, no. It was very nice.

When he walks in the room, he gives her a hug and a kiss. Watch.

Gives her a little peck on the cheek.

PAT: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

GLENN: Does that --

PAT: Does that look like they're totally into each other?

GLENN: Well, I give my wife a peck on the cheek, if she walks into a room.

PAT: Do you? If you haven't seen her in months and it seems like they haven't, would you kiss her on the cheek? Probably not.

GLENN: No, that's a little different. That would be a little different. But I wouldn't make our first seeing of each other on television.

PAT: Yeah, right, that's true. That's true.

GLENN: But, you know, in listening to the staff talk about this. And they were like, it was a really uncomfortable -- okay.

Well, maybe.

PAT: I think it was a little uncomfortable.

GLENN: It was a little uncomfortable.

It's still, maybe. Maybe.

But I don't think that rivals -- and I can't decide which is the worst, most uncomfortable kiss.

Let me roll you back into the time machine, to Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley. Do you remember this kiss?
(applauding)

GLENN: He turns away, immediately away from the camera. Because he's like.

PAT: He was about to vomit. Yeah.

GLENN: It was so awkward. When that happened, all of us went, oh, my gosh. He has only kissed little boys. What are we doing? What is happening?

He doesn't like women, what is happening?

And then there's the other one that sticks out in my mind of -- and I'm not sure which is worse. The Lisa Marie or the Tipper in Al Gore.

VOICE: The kiss. The famous exchange during the 2000 democratic convention was to some lovely, to others icky.
(laughter)

GLENN: That's an ABC reporter. To some lovely, others icky.

And it really was. And it was -- I believe his global warming stuff more than that kiss.
(laughter)
And you know where I stand on global warming.

That was the most awkward kiss I think ever on television!

PAT: Yeah. It was pretty bad. Pretty bad.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

So when people who are, you know -- these youngsters.

These days. They look at Barack and Michelle. They're like, that was an awkward kiss.

Don't even start with me.

We knew when we were kids, what awkward kisses were like.

PAT: The other awkward thing about that.

She claims, there was not been one moment in their marriage.

Where she's considered reeving him.

GLENN: Yeah.

PAT: She just said a while ago. A month or a year ago, she hated his guts for ten years. She hated it.

GLENN: Yeah. But that doesn't mean you'll give up.

PAT: I guess not. I guess not. Maybe you enjoy being miserable.

I don't know.

GLENN: No. I have to tell you the truth.

My grandmother when I got a divorce, just busted me up forever. I call her up, and I said, on my first marriage.

Grandma, we're getting a divorce.

And my sweet little 80-year-old grandmother, who never said a bad thing in her life said, excuse me?

And I said, what?

We're getting a divorce.

And she said, how dare you.

I said, what's happening. And she said, I really thought you would be the one that would understand. Out of everybody in this family, I thought you would understand.

And I said, what?

And she said, this just -- this just crushed me when she said it.

Do you think your grandfather and I liked each other all these years? I was like, well, yeah.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: Kind of. And she said, we loved each other. But we didn't always like each other. And there were times that we were so mad at each other.

PAT: Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh.

STU: But we knew one thing: Marriage lasts until death!

PAT: Did she know your first wife?

GLENN: Okay. All right. That's just not necessary.

No, Trump’s tariffs ARE NOT causing inflation

The media is insisting that President Trump's tariffs caused a rise in inflation for June. But Our Republic president Justin Haskins joins Glenn to debunk this theory and present another for where inflation is really coming from.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Justin Haskins is here. He is the president of Our Republic. And the editor-in-chief of stoppingsocialism.com.

He is also the coauthor with me at the Great Reset, Dark Future, and Propaganda War.

So, in other words, I'm saying, he doesn't have a lot of credibility. But he is here to report -- I don't even think you're -- you're -- you were wrong on this, too, with the tariffs. Right?

JUSTIN: Well, at some point, I was wrong about everything.

GLENN: Yeah, right. We are all on the road to being right.

But this is coming as a shock. You called yesterday, and you said, Glenn, I think the tariff thing -- I think the president might be right.

And this is something I told him, if I'm wrong. I will admit that I'm wrong.

But I don't think I'm wrong.

Because this goes against everything the economists have said, forever.

That tariffs don't work.

They increase inflation.

It's going to cost us more.

All of these things. You have been study this now for a while, to come up with the right answer, no matter where it fell.

Tell me what's going on.

JUSTIN: Okay. So the most recent inflation data that came out from the government, shows that in June, prices went up 2.7 percent. In May, they went up 2.4 percent. That's compared to a year prior. And most people are saying, well, this is proof that the tariffs are causing inflation.

GLENN: Wait. That inflation is -- the target is -- the target is two -- I'm sorry.

We're not. I mean, when I was saying, it was going to cause inflation. I thought we could be up to 5 percent.

But, anyway, go ahead.

JUSTIN: So the really incredible thing though. The more you look at the numbers. The more obvious it is, that this does not prove inflation at all.

For starters, these numbers are lower, than what the numbers were in December and January.

Before Trump was president. And before we had any talk of tariffs at all.

So that is a big red flag right at the very beginning. When you dive even deeper into the numbers, what you see is there's all kinds of parts of the Consumer Price Index that tracks specific industries, or kinds of goods and services. That should be showing inflation, if inflation is being caused by tariffs, but isn't.

So, for example, clothing and apparel. Ninety-seven percent, basically.

About 97 percent according to one report, of clothing and apparel comes overseas, imported into the United States.

GLENN: Correct.

JUSTIN: So prices for apparel and clothing should be going up. And they're not going up, according to the data, they're actually going down, compared to what they were a year ago. Same thing is true with new vehicles.

Obviously, there were huge tariffs put on foreign vehicles, not on domestic vehicles. So it's a little bit more mixed.

But new vehicle price are his staying basically flat. They haven't gone up at all. Even though, there's a 25 percent tariff on imported cars and car parts. And then we just look at the overall import prices. You just -- sort of the index. Which the government tracks.

What we're seeing is that prices are basically staying the same, from what they were a year ago.

There's very, very little movement overall.

GLENN: Okay. So wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

Wait.

Let me just -- let me just make something career.

Somebody is eating the tariffs. And it appears to be the companies that are making these things. Which is what Donald Trump said. And then, the -- you know, the economist always saying, well, they're just going to pass this on in the price.

Well, they have to. They have to get this money some place.

So where are they?

Is it possible they're just doing this right now, to get past. Because they know if they jack up their price, you know, they won't be able to sell anything. What is happening?

How is this money, being coughed up by the companies, and not passed on to the consumer.

JUSTIN: Yeah, it could be happening. I think the most likely scenario, is that they are passing it along to consumers. They're just not passing it along to American consumers.

In other words, they're raising prices elsewhere. To try to protect the competitiveness with the American market. Because the American market is the most important consumer market in the world.

And they probably don't want to piss off Donald Trump either, in jacking up prices. And then potentially having tariffs go up even more, as a punishment for doing that.

Because that's a real option.

And so I think that's what's happening right now.

Now, it's possible, that we are going to see a huge increase in inflation. In six months!

That's entirely possible.

We don't know what's going to happen. But as of right now, all the data is suggesting that recent inflation is not coming from consumer goods being imported, or anything like that.

That's not where the inflation is coming.

Instead, it's coming from housing.

That's part of the CPI at that time.

Housing is the cause of inflation right now.

GLENN: Wait. Wait. It's not housing, is it?

Because the things to make houses is not going through the roof. Pardon the pun. Right?

It's not building.

JUSTIN: No. No. The way the CPI calculates housing is really stupid. They look basically primarily at rent. That's the primary way, they determine housing prices.

GLENN: Okay.

JUSTIN: That so on they're not talking about housing costs to build a new house.

Or housing prices to buy a new house.

They are talking about rent.

And then they try to use rent data, as a way of calculating how much you would have to pay if you owned a house, but you had to rent the same kind of house.

And that's how they come up with this category.

GLENN: Can I ask you a question: Is everybody in Washington, are they all retarded?
(laughter)
Because I don't. What the hell. Who is coming up with that formula?

JUSTIN: Look. I mean, sort of underlying this whole conversation, as you -- as you and I know, Glenn.

And Pat too. The CPI is a joke to begin with.

GLENN: Right.

JUSTIN: So there's all kinds of problems with this system, to begin with.

I mean, come on!

GLENN: Okay. So because I promised the president, if I was wrong, and I had the data that I was wrong, I would tell him.

Do I have to -- out of all the days to do this.

Do I have to call him today, to do that?

Are we still -- are we still looking at this, going, well, maybe?

JUSTIN: I think there's -- I think there is a really solid argument that you don't need to make the phone call.

GLENN: Oh, thank God. Today is not the day to call Donald Trump. Today is not the day.

Yeah. All right.

JUSTIN: And the reason why is, we need -- we probably do need more data over a longer period of time, to see if corporations are doing something.

In order to try to push these cuts off into the future, for some reason. Maybe in the hopes that the tariffs go down. Or maybe -- you know, it's all sorts of ways, they could play with it, to try to avoid paying those costs today.

It's possible, that's what's going on.

But as of right now, that's not at all, what is happening. As far as I can tell from the data.

GLENN: But isn't the other side of this, because everybody else said, oh. It's not going to pay for anything.

Didn't we last month have the first surplus since, I don't know. Abraham Lincoln.

JUSTIN: Yes. Yes. We did. I don't know how long that surplus will last us.

GLENN: Yeah. But we had one month.

I don't think I've ever heard that before in my lifetime. Hey, United States had a surplus.

JUSTIN: I looked it up.

I think it was like 20 something years ago, was the last time that happened. If I remembered right.

It was 20 something years ago.

So this is incredible, really.

And if it works.

You and I talked about this before.

I actually think there is an argument to be made. That this whole strategy could work, if American manufacturers can dramatically bring down their costs. To produce goods and services.

So that they can be competitive.

And I think that advancements in artificial intelligence. In automation. Is going to open up the door to that being a reality.

And if you listen to the Trump administration talk. People like Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce. They have said, this is the plan.

The plan is, go all in on artificial intelligence.

Automation. That's going to make us competitive with manufacturers overseas. China is already doing that.

They're already automating their factories. They lead the world in automation.

GLENN: Yeah, but they can take half their population, put them up in a plane, and then crash it into the side of the mountain.

They don't care.

What happens to the people that now don't have a job here? How do they afford the clothes that are now much, much cheaper?

JUSTIN: Well, I think the answer to that is, there's going to be significantly more wealth. Trillions of dollars that we send overseas, every year, now in the American economy. And that's going to go into other things. It's not as though -- when this technology comes along, it is not as though people lose their jobs, and that's it. People sit on their couch forever.

The real danger here is not that new markets will not arrive in that situation. And jobs with it. The problem is: I think there's a real opportunity here. And I think this is going to be the fight of the next election, potentially. Presidential election. And going forward.

Next, ten, 20 years. This is going to be a huge issue. Democrats are going to have the opportunity, when the AI revolution goes into full force. They will have the opportunity like they've never had before.

To say, you know what, we'll take care of you. Don't worry about it.

We're just going to take all of the corporate money and all of the rich people's money.

And we will print trillions of dollars more. And you can sit on your couch forever. And we will just pay you. Because this whole system is rigged, and it's unfair, and you don't have a job anymore because of AI. And there's nothing you can do. You can't compete with AI. AI is smarter than you.

You have no hope.

I think that's coming, and it is going to be really hard for free market people to fight back against that.

GLENN: Yes.

Well, I tend to agree with you.

Because the -- you know, I thought about this.

I war gamed this, probably in 2006.

I'm thinking, okay.

If -- if the tech is going to grow and grow and grow. And they will start being -- they will be responsible for taking the jobs.

They won't be real on popular.

So they will need some people that will allow them to stay in business, and to protect them.

So they're going to need to be in with the politicians.

And if the politicians are overseeing the -- the decrease of jobs, they're going to need the -- the PR arm of things like social media. And what it can be done.

What can be done now.

I was thinking, at the time. Google can do.

But they need each other.

They must have one another. And unless we have a stronger foundation, and a very clear direction, and I will tell you. The president disagrees with me on this.

I said, he's going to be remembered as the transformational AI president.

And he said, I think you're wrong on that.

And I don't think I am.

This -- this -- this time period is going to be remembered for transformation.

And he is transforming the world. But the one that will make the lasting difference will be power and AI.

Agree with that or disagree?

JUSTIN: 1,000 percent. 1,000 percent. This is by far the most important thing that is happening in his administration in the long run. You're projecting out ten, 20, 30 years ago years.

They will be talking about this moment in history, a thousand years from now. Like, that will -- and they will -- and if America becomes the epicenter of this new technology, they will be talking about it, a thousand years from now, about how Americans were the ones that really developed this.

That they're the ones that promoted it, that they're the ones that does took advantage of it.
That's why this AI race with China is so important that we win it.

It's one of the reasons why. And I do think it's a defining moment for his presidency. Of course, the problem with all of this is AI could kill us all. You have to weigh that in.

GLENN: Yeah. Right. Right.

Well, we hope you're wrong on that one.

And I'm wrong on it as well. Justin, thank you so much.

Thank you for giving me the out, where I don't have to call him today. But I might have to call him soon. Thanks, Justin. I appreciate it.

The ONLY Trump/Epstein Files Theories That Make Sense | Glenn TV | Ep 445

Is the case closed on Jeffrey Epstein and Russiagate? Maybe not. Glenn Beck pulls the thread on the story and its far-reaching implications that could expose a web of scandals and lead to a complete implosion of trust. Glenn lays out five theories that could explain Trump’s frustration over the Epstein files and why Glenn may never talk about the Epstein case again. Plus, Glenn connects the dots between the Russiagate hoax, the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, and the Steele dossier related to the FBI’s new “grand conspiracy” probe. It all leads to one James Bond-like villain: former CIA Director John Brennan. Then, Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, tells Glenn why he believes his former boss Brennan belongs in prison and what must happen to prevent a full-blown trust implosion in American institutions.
