Will Biden’s border crisis TRANSFORM America FOREVER?

A crisis on our southern border has been ongoing for years now, only getting worse when President Biden took office. Now, with the end of Title 42, the border crisis may escalate to the worse levels this nation has EVER seen. Texas Rep. Chip Roy tells Glenn that the state is ‘under siege.’ So, is Governor Greg Abbott doing enough? Rep. Roy and Glenn discuss what SHOULD be done to end this crisis NOW and how the rush of migrants into America could fundamentally change our country forever…

GLENN: We have Chip Roy on with us.

Hello, Chip. How are you, sir?

SPEAKER ONE: Well, Glenn, our state is under siege. And I think the American people are (?) forcing Republicans to take action. But this administration is leaving us stranded.

GLENN: So I don't understand formative we were just talking about Abbott.

I sure would like Abbott to start leading a little bit more than he is. I know he is starting to ship everybody out from Texas to other states.

But that just hurts other states as well. This is an invasion. You can't have four hundred thousand people coming in every month.

And expect to keep your country. You can't. So --

SPEAKER ONE: There's something like 30,000 apprehensions over the last three days. Trying to get (?) a few folks down at the border. Giving me, you know, sort of the latest and greatest.

Or latest and most terrible. And what I'm hearing right now. Is the PBS and national guards folks. The are actually on the front line. Trying to turn away and hold people back. Jocular. Good.

SPEAKER ONE: While Border Patrol is especially (?) by basically kind of order of the DHS. So we've had this kind of flip, where it's actually Texas folks trying to keep them from crossing.

And Border Patrol pulled back to process.

GLENN: So we -- you're the second source we have on this now. So I believe we just had somebody else on. That that's the word they were if we go to.

And they believed it when they saw it. (?) so if you're if we go to that as well. Maybe then the governor (?) is taking charge of the border.

SPEAKER ONE: Well, look. I think it's all a tough call here. I do think the and DPS. Have been trying to throw everything they have (?) you're either striked over. And literally danger to turn away. And return people. And basically force your way in front of Border Patrol.

We don't have the resources. We don't have enough people. We don't have enough folks. And so it's hard. Right? They'll just move to another place. And Border Patrol will usher them in.

And, by the way, this is (?) which they crapped on this last week. Instead of giving more resources to the.

And instead, they're passing freaking (?) gambling bills. That's your freaking (?) you should have given more support to the governor. And didn't do it.

GLENN: So I just talked to Wade Miller. For citizens renewing America. (?) and he said, that if the calls other states, they can send resources down.

SPEAKER ONE: Certainly. I just (?) is probably correct on that. I know Wade well.

And I think there's a number of states I know that are willing to support. I'm confident Florida. Would support.

And look, by the way, God bless Florida. They just passed legislation. They passed the sneakily verify bill. They passed other strong immigration (?) that DeSantis signed. Then they just had a court strike down these migrants. With nothing more than hell. Please show up one day.

Not a required notice to appear. So at least they put an injunction on that for two weeks. So they want to help.

Look, we have to do everything we can, in Texas. I want a call (?) who don't have that

We need all states to kind of work with Texas, to step in the breach. Because Border Patrol, DHS. They're pulling back.

I want to be clear, the Border Patrol agents on the line, they want to do their job.

It's the freaking it's to at DHS that are holding them back.

GLENN: We were just talking about China's invasion plan, for Russia.

And it was to send a million people over the border. To surrender their guns. And to surrender to the Russians.

After 5 million people across the border. And surrender. Russia is overwhelmed.

And it collapses. And they win without firing a bullet.

This is exactly that strategy, if you believe somebody is trying to collapse the United States of America. And I happen to believe that.

SPEAKER ONE: Well, one thing we know for sure. I got reports yesterday from Chinese nationals.

They're running across.

We know that Border Patrol is now being pulled back to due process. They're unable to process between ports of entry.

We know (?) we know we have people from all sorts of places. You know, connected. Foreign terrorist agents. (?) we know exactly what's happening in terms of the border.

And we know exactly what, you know, evil a lot of people around this world want to do.

The problem is, what people haven't come to friendships yet.S is we don't give a rat's rear end (?) and they want to undermine our country. They are literally at war with the American people.

They're undermining our nearly. They're spending us to Tet. They're opening up our borders for (?) from fentanyl to terrorists in China. And you can only conclude that it's purposeful. There's no other logical conclusion.

GLENN: Chip, I will tell you. Next week, I am laying out a plan. A constitutional plan, that we have talked to scholars and attorneys.

And attorneys general about it. And it is something that we do to fight back.

But it is time for Americans to really dig into the Constitution and into their state Constitutions. And find out exactly what could be done. Because we're -- we're in an endgame here. At some point, this will overwhelm.

I mean, I've said it -- look at the growth of Texas. Of Houston.

Of Austin.

At some point, these cities are no longer Texas cities. And I contend they already aren't. They're no longer Texas cities.

When we had massive immigration at the turn of the century, through Ellis island. You were at least given, you know, the -- the books on how to become an American.

They were stressing, you have to fold in. And become an American. That's not happening.

You cannotted amillions of people, to your population. Without -- that don't know, nor care anything about your history.

When our population doesn't know or care about our history. Or our system of government.

You will change fundamentally. And you will never be able to go back to a -- a constitutional republic.

Because no one will know what it is.

SPEAKER ONE: All of this is purposeful. From the education system. To the borders. From what they're trying to do to attack our financial security. Just go down the line. And there's literally no other explanation for it.

We have to, you know, stand up and hold the line.

And I applaud you for going down that road.

We have to do it as a free people. We won't just sit back and allow these tyrants in Washington, to undermine our God-given freedom. That's what's occurring.

I want to be clear. I'm not going to allow that. As a free citizen. I'm going to protect my family. My children, (?) from the tyranny of this out of control government.

Right now, as a member of Congress. My duty is to move the ball (?) it may be too little too late approximately Republicans for 20 years. Have pissed (?) because they were in the hip pocket of the gosh darn chamber of Congress. Well, finally (?) we've finally passed a strong Border Patrol bill. And I'm proud of it.

It's a good bill.

GLENN: What does it -- what does it say, what does it do?

PAT: So the bill is -- literally, Glenn. I wouldn't enabling up. It is the strongest Border Patrol bill ever passed. It would make very clear, that the secretary. A future secretary that is not corrupt for a border. (?) for any reason he or she sees fit. That's a really important edition. It's like Title 42. But across-the-board. And not related to health.

Number two, it would fix all the (?) it would fix the unaccompanied children problems. It would fix the family unity separation problems created by courts.

Examine most importantly, it would require, it would be (?) very specific in the statute. Overtaking other laws. It would say, you may not release, period. Unless someone is having a legitimate claim being adjudicated. And I'm sorry. Not unless -- you may not release period. But you must be detained, or you must be in Mexico. While a legitimate is a asylum claim is being adjudicated. Period.

That's (?) the end of it. It's a good bill. It has E-Verify. But only if we pass the policy changes. It has more -- you know, again some of this is set up for a future Republican president. If our country can even last 18 months. And God, ladies and gentlemen, elected. (?) I'm not sure we can.

If we don't throw ourselves in front of this train now. Which raises (?) and the president.

It races questions about what the states do. And it raises questions (?) about the debt ceiling and the spending fight.

I don't see how I as a responsible Texan. Can move forward either the debt ceiling bill. Or spending bill.

If we don't address the border crisis. It's an absolute (?) security.

It's endangering Texans. We'll see how this unfolds. We have to use (?) by September or both.

To secure the border, as well as other things.

You know, stop pistol braces. Stop the World Health Organization. Stop the spending of money we don't have. Recklessly. Stop the stupid production act tax credits. In view of the fact we did most of those things, in our bill that's passed and sent oar.

Although, we still need to address (?) the pistol braces. And the border.

GLENN: So let me ask you. I just talked to Mike Lee about an hour ago. He said, Congress, you did your job. And you put the rains act in the budget.

And I said to have, just shooting from the hip (?) I think that's worth even raising the debt ceiling some compromising on this. To get the rains act.

I think that reigns in the US (?) government agencies in a way that would be extraordinary.

Do you agree with that or not?

SPEAKER ONE: Yeah, totally. (?) any regulation that has economic impact. Or impact greater than $100 million. Then it has to go to Congress for approval.

Roughly that's the dumb speak version of it. So it would (?) the bureaucrats can do. Without congressional engagement. We've ceded too much authority to him.

So, yes. It's an extremely. (?), yes. I get slapped around from Twitter. From the conservatives who I understand they're frustrated. Because they're -- they're assuming we're doing what Republicans have always done.

We're not. The speaker's agreement in January. What we did in the debt ceiling fight. What we did in the border bill. This border bill is righteous. Conservative. And strong.

The debt ceiling bill we passed. Is awesome. It's chalked full of all sorts of great stuff. That we sent over to the Senate. The question is: Too we have the back bone to not (?) blink when we get up to June. Deals can be made to move the ball down the field. (?) those Inflation Reduction Act, (?) hip pocket of liberal elitists. 90 percent of the dollars going to corporations. They make over a billion dollars. That funds the construction of the gas industry. You'll have a grid that's undermined. Your freedom is taken away.

All to enrich liberal elitists. The reigns acts. All these things. (?) they're good stuff.

Let's be clear. Our border is on fire. They're literally destroying every aspect of our way of life.

Not even talking about the woke weaponized (?) over the Pentagon, for example. So we'll have to take these fights through.

And Lord willing, land the plane with a Republican president. And get in and gut this place.

GLENN: I will tell you, there's not a chance that I will be in Washington any time soon. But the next time you're in Dallas, I owe you the biggest Fred Flynn stone dinner I can find. Thank you. (?)

VOICE: Just keep it up be with man. The American people are on to it. (?) I hope it's not too late.

If you're listening to this, we have to get engaged. We have to do this. Do it for your kids (?) fought for this country. (?) of bastion. You know. Don't just talk go enforcement just wave the flag on July 4th. Dadgum it. (?)

GLENN: Representative Chip Roy from the great state of Texas. And anyone who says dadgum it, you listen to him

The REAL reason Trump seized an OIL TANKER off Venezuela's coast

The United States has seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela that President Trump said was siezed "for a very good reason." While Glenn Beck doesn't know the official reason, he believes Trump is sending a clear message with this action - not to Venezuela, but to China...

Transcript

GLENN: Okay. What do you know about the oil tanker that we seized yesterday.

STU: I mean, very little of what's in the news, that's it.

GLENN: Oil tanker. Yeah. What oil tanker?

This oil tanker has been a bone of contention between us and Venezuela for a very, very long time.

Because they are taking oil, basically to China.

And we have said no. And they've also been doing it with Iran. And taking some Iranian oil with this tanker, et cetera, et cetera.

It's -- a -- it's a troubled oil tanker.

So finally, Donald Trump just said yesterday, enough is enough.

That is not -- that's a message to China!

That's all that that was. You know, we -- we are -- when you look at what's happening in Venezuela, here's what I want you to understand: The world is profoundly changing.

Now, I would have been telling you this, had Kamala Harris been in. I would have been telling you, the world is profoundly changing. And it's going to go into a global structure.

And we're going to have one world government. And then China and Russia. And there would be that.

The West would go into one world government. That's what I would be telling you today. I'm telling you now, we're going -- we're going into another kind of reset.

Not The Great Reset. But a different reset. And this one is going to go to nation states. And the United States is protecting itself and setting up. You remember the chalkboard when I said, you know, the -- the disease from the Islamists and the anarchists. And the socialists and communists would spread around the world?

The last part of that chalkboard is not that it would spread around the world, but it would try to collapse the systems.

Okay?

Our systems, both east and west are collapsing as we know it.

And, you know, another chalkboard I put out, about 2015.

I wish I had Glenn AI up right now. Because I could go find it for you. I think around 2017, I put a chalkboard up. And I said, there are two things left. There's collapse of the currency. And there's war.

And they always -- one happens before the other. But they always go hand in hand. Usually, what happens, when you get into an end of an empire.

A dying empire, which we are. When you get to there, what happens is, you usually have the rising power, which many will believe, is China.

But it's not.

The rising power comes up, and they will make a first strike.

And they will strike us in some way or another, to put us out, and then they rise up to the top. Okay?

That's usually what happens. This time, there is no rising power because China is bluffing. We're bluffing. We cannot get out from under this debt.

The entire world has this debt. So there's a debt explosion that's going to happen. How that shapes up. How that turns out. I don't know.

But war will come with it because it is going to be such a profound change. Now, what's happening is, we're not going into one system. We're going into two systems. There will be one system for the east, and one system for the West. I'm convinced of that.

What Donald Trump is doing is, everything that's happening in Venezuela. Yes, it has something to do with drugs in our own streets. Et cetera, et cetera.

But mainly, it is saying to Iran, Russia, and China, get the hell out of our hemisphere.

You're no longer welcome here. That's why Russia and China were -- were coming into the Japanese airspace just yesterday. And we in Japan had to push them back. They're not trying to start a war. They're checking us. They're putting us in check. Because they're going to do the same thing to that hemisphere. They're going to say, okay. Fine. You have the West. We have the East.

And that I think is what's come. And how that works out, it -- it always -- war and currency collapse. Those always go hand in hand.

I -- I don't know this time, because you're -- you're going to lose. I mean, we're going to lose South Korea as an asset. South Korea is going to be -- it will fall to the Chinese. When that happens. What happens to Japan?

Do they fall to the Chinese too? What happens to Taiwan? Does that fall to the Chinese? Let me bring Jason in on this. Do you agree with what I'm saying so far?

JASON: Yeah. Pretty much. I definitely think we're entering into a stage of hemispheric control. And the tanker situation is a perfect example of everything that we've been talking about since this whole Venezuela thing started. You look at tankers and sanctions since, I think, 2022 under the Biden administration.

And what they discovered then, was that the Iranian Republic Guard Corp was sending direct orders basically to the people that were involved with this tanker, to take Iranian oil, eventually over to Asia, which pretty much means China.

And then make money, that they were filtering back to Iran. Well, another player in that, was this extremely Russian oligarch. The Russians. We know he's not doing this on his own.

We know that Russia is involved in some way. So you have all these players involved in trying to control assets or at least use the hemisphere of America to do this thing. To pull it off.

You have Russia. You have the Iranians. You have China.

All these people are operating in our backyard. It was crazy. Did you see the Venezuelan opposition leader Machado?

GLENN: Yes. In Norway?

JASON: Yes.

GLENN: So she was -- she was -- they forbid her for leaving Venezuela. She just gotten the Nobel Peace Prize. She's the opposition leader, and the Nobel Prize just went to her for peace.

And she showed up. I don't know what's going to happen to her when she goes back.

JASON: Yeah, she was asking directly because of this situation and everything going on with our build-up, you know, in South America. If she supported a US invasion, a ground operation or something like that. And she goes to an invasion. Well, Venezuela is already being invaded.

Who did she give us an example of the invasion? She named specifically, Hezbollah, Hamas, and other international terror organizations.

And drug trafficking organizations.

This is known to everyone. This is not just about drugs.

Now, do I -- I want to make this clear. I'm not advocating for us to go in and do any kind of war. I don't want involvement.

GLENN: I don't want that. I don't want that.

JASON: But what you're saying about hemispheric conflict is developing. Like, there's no stopping it. Now is the chance of how do we maneuver ourselves into where we can -- I don't know. Somehow influence. Or not -- like, I don't want to get involved in this whole China/Taiwan thing.

If any of this sounds beneficial, or at least I don't know, optimistic, is that now these players within that hemisphere. Like Japan.

Japan, they have the number three economy in the world. It's around that area.

They have a juggernaut economy. It's not doing well like all the other are not doing well. But they also have a major military, that is not authorized to do offense operation. I mean, they are a perfect check to China. Why are we always the ones that are the first people they call to go and handle a situation? Regional powers are emerging, like Japan.
GLENN: See, this is the exact opposite.

This is what people need to understand. This is what needs to happen. It is going to happen. It will either going to go into China and their sphere of influence and the West as a global, you know, one world order.

Okay? Those would have been the two powers. That is coming. Would it have collapse or possible war. Yes. Because everything is changing. And to get people to change that much, probably would mean some war.

So what's happening is Donald Trump has just said, no. Nation states. Individual states matter.

That's where the people are. They want their own representation in their own state. And so the United States is standing up for that.

And so you're going to see, for instance, in the Eastern hemisphere. You're going to see Japan, Australia, they're going to have to stand on their own 2 feet. Because we're not going to be able to do it.

So they're going to have to stand on their own 2 feet. When it comes to this hemisphere, Donald Trump is making sure that we have you all of the -- all of the resources locked down. All of the rare earth minerals locked down. Everything that we're going to need to survive as a hemisphere. Because at best, we're going to go into some sort of a Cold War. Would you agree with that?

JASON: At best.
GLENN: At best. Yeah.
JASON: Yes. I tell you what, Glenn, we talked yesterday on the TV show about the year 2027, which we're about to start a clock on the 12-month countdown to 2027.

So many predictions have been made about that year, 2027. For one, China being able to or being ready to take back Taiwan. That's huge.

For the other, artificial intelligence, all the experts that are now predicting 2027 as being the year that that starts. Where we finally kind of realize, okay. There's definitely no going back now.

This is the main geopolitical and educational and everything goal for every single nation state like the race is on.

Well, I guess, at that point, it will be -- it will be decided. This is the person that is the first one to the race. And will control it.

That's the countdown that we're on right now.

Erika Kirk's BIGGEST CONCERN as Charlie's alleged assassin heads to court

Erika Kirk joins Glenn Beck to address the conspiracy theories about the assassination of her husband, Charlie Kirk, as his alleged assassin heads to court. She also discusses Charlie's final book, "Stop, in the Name of God," and reveals what she believes Charlie's TRUE legacy will be.

GLENN: Let me just say something that I -- I had to check with somebody. It can't be true. Yesterday was the three-month anniversary of Charlie's assassination. And here's why I had to check: It's only been three months? It feels like it was a year ago, almost!

Doesn't it? Is it just me?

So much has happened. So much has changed. And I have to tell you, I pray for the TP USA staff. And I think about them every day, because of the evil that they have been facing.

It's just absolute evil. And I want to talk to Erika. I mean, she addressed that yesterday. I -- we don't need to go into all of that. Because I really want to focus on Charlie's last message.

Welcome, Erika.

ERIKA: Good morning, sorry.

GLENN: No.

ERIKA: Just emotional. Good morning.

GLENN: It is -- gosh. Three months. And, you know, what you said yesterday -- and we don't have to go into this. I don't want to spend a lot of time on it. But it's -- it's evil what is happening.

ERIKA: I know.

GLENN: My wife and I -- I honestly have thought about my wife so much because God forbid something ever happens to me.

ERIKA: Yeah.

GLENN: I don't know how you handle this, Erika. I don't know how -- to be dragged into, you know, you were involved in the death and all of this crazy evil stuff.

ERIKA: Oh, it's sick.

GLENN: God bless you. God bless you.

ERIKA: It's sick.

GLENN: It is.

ERIKA: My family means everything to me. Turning Point USA has always been in our life and has always been so good to Charlie, and Charlie was so good to his team. Everyone loved Charlie!

GLENN: Yeah.

ERIKA: I get that everyone wants -- everyone wants an answer to this evil. And sometimes the answer is very clear.

GLENN: Yeah.

ERIKA: The truth is very clear.

GLENN: No. Are you worried -- one question, and then we'll go into what the real answer is. Are you concerned about his assassin is in court today? Are you concerned about being able to have a jury that's not been tainted?

ERIKA: No, it's -- it's a real thing, Glenn, and you get this: A lot of people don't.
And I think that we need to do a better job of educating our citizens about our court systems.
A lot of people don't know how an actual trial plays out. I am very curious about how the United Health Care case plays out. We are living in a day and age where social media can absolutely impact, I feel, it can. The reason I say that is because I don't want a attained jury pool. I want justice for my husband.

Any time we have leads. Any time we hear anything, we send it to the authorities. We're not messing around. None of us are involved in my husband's murder. None of us!

Turning Point USA, myself, any of these other crazy accusations, none of us!

And so, I want our team, who is on this case, to do what we hired them to do. And take care of this.

And the unfortunate part is that everyone is acting as if the case and the trial is going to be tomorrow!

It's not. Glenn, you know this.

The case is not going to be. I mean, in full transparency, we're looked at end of '26? Beginning of '27, probably. I -- I mean, this is not something that is going to be happening tomorrow.

Say that again.

GLENN: Well, it's -- I mean, how do you get a jury, with that much time, and what's happening.

And, quite honestly, I don't need you to comment on this happen. But I think mental illness is involved in -- in some of this stuff that is online. Honestly, I feel bad, it's mentally -- it's mental illness.

ERIKA: Yeah. Glenn, I'm not going to waste my time, combating people, going toe to toe, calling people names.

GLENN: Yeah.

ERIKA: I don't -- I don't -- that's just not me. That's not how Charlie operated. There's no reason for me to go down a dark place like that. I am so tired of the fracture. What drives me nuts is that Charlie -- he has worked and provided and has blessed us with so much -- like literally, his book. He's blessed us with so much wisdom.

So much -- he's just such a good thought leader.

He blessed us with laser focus on the mission! On saving this country!

But instead, we're so focused on who did what?

Yes. We will figure this out. Yes. This was a murder case. He did not die in a car crash.

Yes. That will be handled, but my husband's legacy is not about his murder. My husband's legacy is what he left behind.

GLENN: And it's -- it's -- it's -- you know, I just did an hour. I through out all the stuff that I was going to talk about. All the stuff in the country. The debt and Venezuela. And China all of this stuff.

And I went in a different direction. Just about the meaning of life.

Because we're losing touch with life has meaning and value. And the same thing, I think here. You know, we can talk about a million things.

But -- and I know this.

You know, he writes about the Sabbath and honoring the Sabbath.

And I have to tell you, if I didn't honor the Sabbath, I would have been dead a long time ago.

When I was at the apex of work. I used to have two staffs. One in the day, one at night.

Charlie was the same way. There's just not enough hours in the day to do everything. If I didn't shut down, and concentrate on God and my family for one day, total shutdown. I wouldn't have made it.

And -- and that's what Charlie talks about in this book, and I know you've talked to people, you know, you have -- you have broadened this. So you can get people who are not religious. But can you talk to people who are religious?

I know a lot of people that are religious, that do not honor the Sabbath. Why is it so important?

ERIKA: Right. So it's interesting, we live in a day and age, where people are trying to separate the Old Testament from the New Testament. You cannot pick and choose portions of the Bible. They -- they -- they -- the New Testament, like, everything is being fulfilled. You can't separate any of that.

GLENN: Yes.

ERIKA: The one thing Charlie would say is that it is one -- it is one of the only commandments where if you don't participate in it, you are the one who is missing out on the blessing, not God.

GLENN: True.

ERIKA: And for Charlie, just like you, you know how it is. Long days. Long hours.

Trying to balance it all. And, yes, you can to some extent. But there is going to come a point where you're on the verge of burnout.

And you have a decision to make. Are you going to blow through your adrenals, spike up all your cortisol levels forever, and just try to wear it as a badge of honor, like I'll sleep when I'm dead?

Or are you going to do what you are doing and what Charlie is doing, where you are literally so intentional about your time, down to the millisecond, because you know that that's all you have.

You don't know how long you'll be here. But that you know you have time. And you are in control of your time, and you are in control of how you use your time.

And he was very good of knowing, okay.
If I can just turn off my devices, turn off the noise, and honor the Lord, I can reset. I can reset my brain. Give myself a second to not have to be attached to this.

And whatever my virus is on the internet, and -- and the politics for that day. Like give yourself a break. And the thing is that if you think that you can't, and you're a Christian and you say, "Oh, well, I have this really important thing going on." You are proving right there that you are also breaking a commandment.

GLENN: Yeah, it does.

ERIKA: You are involving idols in your life. You're putting other gods before the one true God. And so obviously, there are caveats here. Meaning, if you're -- you know, if you see someone drowning, you're not going to just watch them drown.

There's caveats of preserving life.

There are common sense.

I know common sense is not common.

Work with me here!

Right.

So, you know, it's one of those things that Charlie was very intentional.

GLENN: I -- I blew out my adrenal glands.

And it was -- it's not a fun thing. And I still was honoring the Sabbath. But it's just go, go, go. Go.

Part -- I don't know. But there were times that Tania. And she was the key for me.
We would get sloppy. And I would say, honey, I have got to fly here. I've got to do this.

This is -- you know, and we would get sloppy for a while. And we would bring it back. Et cetera, et cetera.

Did you guys go through a period, where -- did you just nail this, or did you have periods where you were a little sloppy? And you're like, "Okay. I've got to pray?"

ERIKA: No, we had -- and that's the creative part. Charlie was never legalistic about this. He wasn't. If you can't get a full 24 hours, work it through your week. Maybe you sunset your device at 5:00 p.m. up until the next morning.

Back in the day, when we didn't have email, people knew they couldn't reach you. You did have a home line. I think we should bring back house phones. Make house phones great again.

But I just feel that, you know, there's a way for you to be able to do this and not put pressure on yourself, where you're letting yourself down.

That's what I don't want to have happen, is where you're letting yourself down. So if you say, you know what, I will be doing this on Wednesday. And I will be doing it for these specific amount of hours. Just -- just be easy on yourself. Give yourself some grace. Start out with an hour. Start off with two. Then from there, then you grow, and you become more and more intentional. And then the people around you, will honor that.

Then you're setting your own boundary, to where they even have a chance to have a Sabbath.

GLENN: We're with Erika Kirk. It is -- yesterday was the three-year anniversary. I'm sorry. The three-month anniversary. It feels like three years at times.

ERIKA: It feels like three years.

GLENN: Doesn't it? It's got to, for you. It feels like forever ago. It's crazy! Charlie's final book is out. It's called stopping in the name of God.

Why honoring the Sabbath will transform your life. You guys made the decision to honor the Sabbath on Saturday. Why would you do that?

Can you tell me? Why did you find that important?

ERIKA: Honestly, it boiled down to schedule-wise for us. Charlie always made sure to build that day in specifically. Because he wanted to be prepared for the week ahead.

And he loved having Sunday as his planning take. I'm actually sitting in his office. This is his home office.

And I have not been this here for a very long time.

And I've just been -- that's part of the reason I keep looking down. It's not that insular want to look at you. Just, there are so many treasures here. For instance, this piece of paper.

He wrote on everything. He has papers everywhere. This says, it's the priority -- it says family, children, legacy. Kids, number one.

Versus careerism, consumerism, and loneliness. That's interesting. I could spend hours on -- at this desk. But what my point is, with things like that. Is he would sit here on Sundays, writing, using his journal. Like, going through all these drawers.

And he was preparing for the week ahead.

He was putting on his armor for battle, metaphorically. And he took that time on Sunday after being with the Lord on Saturday and with the family to really get his mind right.

I was even going through one of my kid's binders, like their baby books. And out came a letter that Charlie wrote to my daughter, that she is supposed to open on her 16th birthday. And I never forget when he wrote that. He was so excited. He was like, one day, she will be able to open this.

I was like, yeah. You know, it's so interesting, because I look back now, and I'm thinking, in some way, we operate -- like the Lord puts it in us to operate the way we operate, without even knowing.

Because he knows what our mission is here. And so the Lord put in Charlie such a haste for time. Meaning, I'm not going to run. I do not want to waste time. Everything was intentional.

Everything.

GLENN: Can I ask you, and please feel free: I don't mean to pry. So please feel free to say, I won't answer this.

ERIKA: No, no, no.

GLENN: But I know -- I know the tour. That was the first stop of the tour, and I know you two had met with your priest the night before. And did -- do you think Charlie knew to some degree and had made the conscious choice that I may be taken out early? Not saying that he knew that that day. But that he had any inkling that this might come this way, and that he intentionally hose to move forward with faith in God?

ERIKA: It's interesting. Because we always -- we have -- I mean, I still -- I have unbelievable amounts of death threats. My kids have kidnapping threats. Death threats. Our whole team has death threats. We knew that there was always going to be a threat. But Charlie and I always. We promised each other, we would never live in fear. And he would assay, if they're going to get me, they're going to get me. But he was not messaging people the day before saying, "I'm going to be murdered. They're coming after me. Someone's going to kill me."

He didn't say that. And I had a cell phone. Didn't say that. And so what I do know is that we believe in the power of prayer. What I certainly was know is that we believe in our sovereign God. And what I do know that that night before, we did what we usually did before tours. We said our prayer. And we asked the Lord to protect us. And we asked the Lord, that his will be done.

That's what we did.

GLENN: Is it true that nobody knows, I mean, except for the family. Nobody knows where he's buried, because of what you are afraid people will do?

My gosh.

ERIKA: Why -- why do I need to have people coming to a private place that's for my in-laws. This is their son. This is my father -- my -- my -- the father of my children. My husband.

My own parents. Like, I -- I want to be in peace when I go and pray with my daughter and my son at my husband's gravesite. I don't need photos taken of me. I don't need people coming you up tapping me on the shoulder.

GLENN: God bless you.

ERIKA: We have a beautiful place that we will be making for the public, yes. And people may ask, well, why did you put on display, X, Y, Z when all this happened? Because you know what, if we didn't show the behind the scenes of everything that happened, and all that stuff, they would have still said, why didn't you show behind the scenes?

If you do show behind the scenes, they're going to say, "Oh, this is terrible." You can't win.

GLENN: I know. I know.

ERIKA: I'm not here to win. My audience, my audience is the Lord and Charlie. That's it! That's my audience.

GLENN: Erika, I love you. You have my support. I was there with you at the fundraiser on Saturday, and we just love you and appreciate you. Thanks.

Bold Predictions for 2026: UFOs, A Deported Congresswoman & More!

Global power is shifting, and 2026 may be the most disruptive year in decades. As Glenn Beck, Steve Deace, Liz Wheeler, and Jason Buttrill lay out—from a China–Taiwan flashpoint tied to Venezuela, to the explosive rise of UFO/NHI disclosure, to the possibility of a U.S. congressmember being denaturalized and deported—major geopolitical, cultural, and political shocks are converging at once. Meanwhile, pressure is mounting inside the Trump administration, voter patience is thinning, and the world is racing toward a new strategic realignment. These aren’t far-off hypotheticals. These are the indicators shaping the next year of global conflict, domestic upheaval, and institutional collapse.

How Glenn Beck's "AI George Washington" went VIRAL and Caused a Leftist MELTDOWN

The Left is erupting over Glenn Beck’s new “George AI,” a completely fenced-off system trained only on Founding-era writings, the Federalist Papers, and the documents that shaped the United States. Critics insist it “sounds like Glenn,” but the AI doesn’t even know who Glenn is—and it doesn’t know any modern figures, media outlets, or political movements. What George AI does know is the worldview of the Founders, and that’s exactly what seems to be triggering its opponents. When the tool is asked about today’s issues, it responds entirely through the lens of 18th-century principles, often echoing truths that modern politics can’t seem to handle. This video breaks down why the backlash is so intense, how the AI works, and what it reveals about the widening ideological gap in America.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: By the way, the left is losing their ever-loving mind on this George AI thing. There's more. I think it was trending again today. On one of the -- I mean, what -- I don't understand it.

I don't understand it.

STU: They are fired you up, and I don't know -- it's a fascinating thing, and you talked a little bit about this yesterday. I don't know if you're able to run the test. One of the fascinating parts of this.

Not only is it not echoing you.

GLENN: Yep.

STU: It is unaware of who you are.

Which, again, I wish I was.

GLENN: It is fenced off.

A lot of America is saying, right on, brother.

I'm with you, preach.
The -- the -- the way it's built, is it is only built on these specific documents.

It's only their writings.

What influenced them at the time.

The founding documents. The Federalist Papers. Et cetera, et cetera.

They keep saying, say what Glenn Beck should say.

Maybe that should tell you something. It doesn't know who I am.

I said that, and yesterday afternoon. You called me and said, does it really not know you?

We were just having a conversation. Does it really not know you. So I called Jason, who was on a plane.

And said, hey, Jason, can you have access to George AI?

What happened?

JASON: I had really crappy Wi-Fi, first thing I plugged in and said, who is Glenn Beck? And it's -- I won't give all the details for how this all works right now. But basically, what it spit out immediately is I can't even generate content on that, because I don't have data, Glenn.

GLENN: Doesn't know who I am. Has no data on me. So I asked him. Ask, does it know CNN? Does it know Anderson Cooper?

Does it know Donald Trump? Does it know the United Nations? The WEF? Does it know any of these people or any of these organizations? What happened?

VOICE: Same exact answer for every single one of them. It was actually so crazy. Well, does it know who anyone is? So I'll just pick a random person from George's era.

I just picked John Adams. Okay. So who is John Adams? And George AI spit out this amazing.

GLENN: Amazing. You sent it to me.

VOICE: Did you read this first paragraph? This is George AI.

He's saying, let me tell you about the reluctant architect of a republic. He goes, let me take you back the time before powdered wigs were considered cool before independence was in, before anyone had the audacity to name a country after ideals.

There was this man from Massachusetts. He didn't care much for fame. Didn't sparkle in debates and couldn't charm a crowd to save his life.

But give him a quill and a cause, and he would change history.

That's who John was. He goes on.

GLENN: I saw another -- I saw another piece of that, that was just -- it was just all the facts on him.

I mean, I'm reading it like I didn't know that. I didn't know that. I didn't know that.

JASON: So good.

GLENN: George AI, which begins January 5th in its own way.

I mean, we are being very careful with all of our AI. We -- it's going to be beta testing for quite some time.

And you will have access to the -- the -- the products.

As of January 5th. But you won't recognize it a year from now. But we just want to make sure that everything is safe.

And Stu asked me earlier, well, then how do you ask it. If it doesn't know anything. How do you ask it, you know, things like, what about this story? What about this story?

What about this story?

You have to put that story in. You have to say, here's a story, according to, you know, the Founders and the founding documents, what would you guys say is the problem here. Or how would you fix this, if this was happening in your society?

That's -- that's how we could compare things. You could you put in. You know, new laws, bills, anything else.

I put something in the other day. Was it yesterday or day before. Where we were talking about, oh, whether the president could fire somebody from his administration.

And the answer, I said, if there's anything in the Federalist papers, and it came back. Like, there's nothing in the Federalist Papers, per se.

However, Hamilton said, and -- and it went on. And it was like, I don't know what context he said that in, in the Federalist Papers.

I would have to look, thank you for showing all of this.

But it was exactly the answer that we're looking for. It's really a remarkable tool.

And it doesn't know who I am. So all of you lefties that are so freaked out, that it sounds like me, maybe -- maybe -- just maybe, that's something you should ponder.

Because it only has access. This is not a large language model.

This is a -- a fenced off server, that only has founding era you documents. Founding era information.

Ow, things that influence them. Things that came from them.

That's all it can relate to.

So if you're saying, it sounds like Glenn Beck. Maybe you should say, why do I hate Glenn Beck so much? If I claim to love the founding of our country?

If I claim to care about our Constitution.

JASON: One of the ways you can use this as you describe. A recent story of Donald Trump's new national security policy.

And I was running through tests with George. And just seeing what it would think about it.

GLENN: What did it say?

JASON: I won't go through the entire thing. It's pretty long. But just, from the very opening paragraph. You know, it's interesting. I'm trying to figure out, so many words of saying, when did the obvious, or stating the obvious become controversial?

GLENN: That's exactly what -- oh, my gosh. That's exactly what I said about this on the air. I read the policy on the air two days ago.

And I said, when is -- when did it become the obvious, it's like so revolutionary?

So controversial.

That is amazing.

JASON: Crazy.

GLENN: That is amazing.
