Former CIA head says GOP is most DANGEROUS force in WORLD

The New York Times recently published an op-ed that framed Republicans as a threat to the nation. But then a former director of the CIA, Michael Hayden, took it another step forward: In a tweet, Hayden said he hasn’t witnessed a political force more ‘dangerous’ than the GOP. Um, WHAT!? In this clip, Glenn explains why his words are BEYOND outrageous and are terrifying, too: ‘We're on a staircase, and every step you take is going down deeper and deeper and deeper.’

GLENN: By the way, the panopticon is a jail. Look it up. You can look this up.

It doesn't have any pictures of the guy's nose. The panopticon is a prison where the guards -- it was a circle, and the guards were in the center. And so they could see every single cell at all times and know what was going on.

It was deemed inhumane. Because you cannot live like that. This -- this is the world that we're headed towards. That your entire world will be a panopticon.

STU: I just want to point out, as you mention the surveillance that leads to imprisoning millions of -- of people that are innocent and ruining their lives in prison camps. That our former CIA director said the Republican Party was the most dangerous and contemptible organization. Is that where you were going?

GLENN: That's exactly where I was going. No, no, no, no. That's exactly where I was going.

STU: General Michael Hayden said, I agree. And I was the CIA director when someone said the Republican Party was the most extreme and violent ideology around the world, that they have never come across a political force more nihilistic, dangerous, and contemptible than today's Republicans. Nothing close. The CIA director said, I agree. And I was the CIA director.

And think of the -- China is just one example.

GLENN: Let me just give you this. The New York Times, Charles blow is the guy who started this. And this is an opinion piece, saying that Republicans, forget the label. That's people. Your neighbors. I would not say this. In fact, I correct people. I was just on stage this week.

In Salt Lake. And they were talking about things. And I said, look, we have to look at the people on the other side. And we look at them as the enemy. We cannot do that. There are some that will not change. They will never get it. And they will always work to destroy and overthrow and burn things down. Those people will have to be tried in a court of law. Everyone else, we cannot make them in an enemy, that we see them, our neighbors. The same way. Because they're not. They're different it. And -- and this is not what the left -- the leadership and the main thinkers, and those former CIA director. New York Times. Republicans are America's problem. We must stop thinking it's hyperbolic, to say the Republican Party itself is now our threat to democracy.

I understand the queasiness about labeling many of our fellow Americans in that way. Yeah. Only half the country.

I understand that it sounds extreme. And overreaching. But how else are we going to describe what we're seeing?

Now, so you know, I'm not a Republican. I've never been a registered Republican. I voted for everyone from Donald Trump to Joe Lieberman. Okay?

I'm an independent.

But I will be an M -- a Republican to everyone who would write something like this. So independents don't think that you're immune from this. Republicans are the threat to democracy, because of their preferred form of democracy. One that excludes and suppresses, giving Republicans a fighting chance of maintaining control. That is the danger. For modern Republicans, democracy only works and it is only worth it when and if they win. Republicans have searched for multiple election cycles for the right vehicle. And packaging for their white nationalism. Religious nationalism. Nativism. Craven capitalism. And sexism.

He said, it is -- they're running headlong, in their bigotries. And intolerances and oppressions. Okay.

So that's what they think of us. That's who we are. Now, I want you to know, that the guy who wrote that was born in 1968. So I'm four years old than him. So we've lived pretty much the same kind of life. And seen the same things.

This means, that he has lived through, I'm speaking globally. Not in America. Globally. He lived through the tail end of the Soviet Union.

And the gulags. And the torture. And the deaths.

He lived through Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini. And what they're doing today, with the tortures. The disappearances. The death. Throwing homosexuals off the roof of buildings as their punishment in current day Iran.

He lived through China's Tienanmen Square. He lived through Iraq's Saddam Hussein. He lived through the Rwandan genocide. He lived through Milosevic in Yugoslavia. Osama bin Laden. Al-Qaeda. The Islamic State. What's happening today once again, in Afghanistan. Bashar Assad. Hezbollah. Hamas. Vladimir Putin. The concentration camps and slavery in China. And for him, today's Republican Party is worse than any of those, quote, by far. Our good Democrat neighbors who have been swept up into craziness. Craziness. We have to be able to say to them, look, you may not be a Trump person. I get that. But you're not one of these people that say, me, your former friend. Your neighbor. Your daughter, your son, who you've now said, I want nothing to do because you voted for Donald Trump. Or you're a Republican. Do you really? Because this is where we're going. It's not just that I can't be friends with you anymore. You are now putting me into a category, that is more violent and extreme than any of that.

If I actually don't stand up now, and you actually believe that, let me ask you what's the next step?

What do you do with 50 percent of the population that you now believe is worse than the people that ran the gulags, throwing homosexuals off the buildings, torturing women, using them as slaves? What do you do with people that you say, are worse than those who are maintaining slave centers and internment camps. What do you do with those people? Because you certainly can't live next door to them.

See, people don't understand, we're on a staircase. And every step you take, is going down deeper and deeper and deeper. And darker and darker.

You have to ask yourself: Okay. If I believe this, what's next?

And if they say, oh, there's no slippery slope. You remind them, that you probably were the person that said, look, I don't have a problem with gay marriage. I'm not a homophobe. Okay? If they want to get married, they can get married. Fine. But let's not change the whole system because the next thing that will be happening, is we'll say that men are women and children and pedophiles, that's their own decision. And your neighbor most likely said, you're crazy. That would never happen.

That's the slippery slope. You cannot accept people who are saying this. Put them on record right now. I'm your friend or former friend.

You have to stand against this. Because they didn't just say Republicans. They said, Republicans and our neighbors. Back in a minute.
(music)
So right about now, the economy being what it is, I'm guessing you would be perfectly fine with selling your house and moving to, hmm. I'm trying to think where you could move, where it would be safe.

Here's an idea. Move some place, where it's a very small town. Just a group of farmers. I know. They're in trouble too. Group of farmers. People who just find a religious community. I don't care what they are. I would live with the Amish over any police with Philadelphia and New York. And, quite honestly, if they made me wear the black thing and even the bonnet.

And they're like, no, you're a girl. Come on, man. No, we're only saying that, because you're not really Amish, and we want you to wear the bonnet so we can make fun of you. I would wear the stinking bonnet. All right.

Sell your home. If you need to, you need somebody who is really good at doing that. Because it's starting to get dicey. On the home front. You want the best price. But you also want to be able to find the best home, wherever it is, you're moving to. RealEstateAgentsITrust.com. Go there now. RealEstateAgentsITrust.com.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: We were just talking about the former -- the former director of the CIA, saying Republicans are the most violent extreme political ever -- ever covered.

STU: Dangerous. Nihilistic. This is --

GLENN: Most dangerous and nihilistic he's ever seen.

STU: You -- people say this a lot. And I think it's overstated. This is one of the most unbelievable moments that I can ever remember in politics.

GLENN: Okay. So I would say -- I started saying that this morning, when I started reading this. That this is the most unbelievable thing. We say this all the time. I think we need to say this on this one. This is the most dangerous thing I have ever seen.

STU: Yeah. Think of -- a CIA director.

This is a guy who saw footage of Assad's regime. Firing chemical weapons. At innocent people, and gassing children. This is a person who knows with all sort of detail, Boko Haram, kidnapping children.

GLENN: Al-Qaeda.

STU: Al-Qaeda. The Chinese government. The Venezuelan government. The cartels.

GLENN: ISIS.

STU: In Central America.

Think of the horrible things. North Korea.

GLENN: This guy has seen it all. That's why it's more dangerous. If Joy Reid would have said it, we would have rolled our eyes and said, of course she said that. It still would have been bad and dangerous. But this guy is --

STU: Yeah. Intimate knowledge of all this. And power.

GLENN: And power.

STU: It's one of the most -- the most dangerous moment I've ever seen. This man had this power. This is incredible.

GLENN: But we would never do that. Oh, wait a minute. We have the Japanese internment camps. The entire country said, don't enter the Japanese, until an event happened. Pearl Harbor. And then it didn't matter what the facts were. A demagogue president whipped them up into power, and we interned the Japanese.

Exposing the dangerous roots of queer theory

In this explosive conversation, Glenn Beck and Liz Wheeler expose the disturbing roots of gender ideology and queer theory — and how these radical ideas are directly targeting children. From the shocking origins of queer theory, where pedophilia and child pornography were openly defended, to Planned Parenthood’s new role as one of the largest distributors of transgender hormone therapy, the truth is undeniable: this movement is not about freedom or equality, but about dismantling families, corrupting innocence, and profiting off of our children’s pain. What we are witnessing is nothing less than a satanic ideology dressed up as compassion — and it’s spreading like wildfire through schools, culture, and medicine. Parents, you need to hear this. The time to protect your children and fight back is NOW.

Here’s how INTENSE JFK’s Presidential Fitness Test was

President Trump recently signed an executive order to reinstate the Presidential Fitness Test and the media is in a frenzy. But Glenn and Stu look back at the history of these tests, including JFK’s version of the Test that seems IMPOSSIBLE for modern Americans. But Glenn has a secret reason for why he’s confident in his pull-up abilities…

GLENN: What is the -- what is the new physical -- the president's physical fitness, you know, plan?

STU: Well, the thing that RFK Jr and Hegseth were rolling out the other day. I don't know if it was the full test or anything, but they were issuing a challenge to America, to be able to do 100 pushups and 50 pullups within five minutes.

GLENN: That's crazy.

STU: Thank you! That struck you as also crazy.

I don't think there's ever been a time in my life, that I could do that. Let alone now with shoulder problems. And much too much weight.

GLENN: All right. But that was before I needed this walker.

STU: I don't think there was a time in my 20s or my teens, that I could do that. But that -- in five minutes? Fifty pullups?
GLENN: Both of them in 5 minutes.
STU: Yeah, both of them. So it's not like 100 pushups in five minutes. It's both tasks within five minutes.

GLENN: No. No. That's not true.

STU: RFK Jr. is just doing it in jeans.

GLENN: Yeah, well, RFK, he's -- he's a weirdo. I mean, he is. Come on. When it comes to fitness, he's a weirdo.
STU: Yes.
GLENN: I mean, he's done this his whole life. He's like 800 years old. He can still do it.

STU: Yes. Depressive, I will say.

GLENN: I don't know. He's a sex machine.

STU: Oh. That's been a problem for him. Yes, that's been an issue in his life. Yes.

GLENN: Okay. All right. Go ahead.

STU: Separate from the president's physical fitness test.

GLENN: Right.

STU: But, I mean, they don't, they don't really think we're going to do that, right?
Like, I mean, how long would that take you to do?

STU: I think for me, it would take a good month. I think a month, I could probably get two pullups a day. That would get me around, a little over 50. So I could do that. Plus, the pushups. A solid month, I could get that done.

GLENN: You could do more than two a day. You could do more than two a day.

STU: You know, Glenn, I've got to say. I think -- I will throw a number out there. No science behind this, so just as a guestimate.

I would say 40 percent of the population can't do any pullups. Maybe 30 percent. Thirty percent of the population can do exactly zero pullups. Precisely zero, so an infinite amount of time would be a correct answer for a third of the population.

GLENN: I think you're -- I think you're being -- I think you're being a little too optimistic. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. Maybe 60 percent.

STU: Right! Pushups are one thing. I mean, I think almost anyone can do a pushup. One --

GLENN: You can do a pushup. Yes. Yes.

STU: Singular pushup. And if you can do one, you can wait long enough, to do a second one.
And at some point, the hundred gets done. That's not the case with pullups. Pullups, you can sit there and think about how much you want to do a pullup for a really long time. But that doesn't make a pullup happen. If you've got a certain amount of weight on you. You're not doing a pullup. It's not occurring.

GLENN: I have no idea, how many pullups I can do.

STU: I have an exact number of pullups, you can do.

GLENN: Do you? You think so?

STU: Yeah. Yeah. I have the exact number. I have to calculate -- AI has been running a report on me. It came up with zero.

GLENN: Right. Right. Really?
I can do. I mean, this is so pathetic. Listen to this. I bet I could do three. You know, you could do three.

STU: In a row? Proper form.

GLENN: What do you mean in a row?

STU: I mean, holding on to the bar, without letting go, you're doing three. There's no way. I don't think so.

GLENN: I think I could do. Well, with proper form, I don't know about that. I don't know about that.

STU: I'm not saying it has to look pretty. You have to get your chin up above the bar. It can't be one of those things, where you're a quarter of the way up there.

GLENN: So I can do one and rest for ten minutes. I could do another one.

I think I can do that.

STU: If you -- I'm not saying, you jump up, and you pull yourself up as you're pulling up. Full hang --

GLENN: See, you may not know this.

But you know what, I've done the DNA test. Have you ever done the DNA test that tells you all about your genes and everything else? Mine came back with something remarkable, and I have to share. You might feel bad, next.

(OUT AT 8:29 AM)

GLENN: You know no idea what who you're dealing with. No. You don't have any idea who you're dealing with here.

I got my DNA test back like 10 years ago. And we all -- we all took it, because we were looking for things. And so we all took it. My DNA test came back, and everybody in the family, their test made total sense. Like, oh, yeah. That makes...

Then we read mine. We have to find -- I have to find. See if Tania has it still. We should have had it framed. I swear to you, they -- they mixed me up with somebody else.

Somebody else is like, wait a minute. I'm this pathetic? Mine came out and said, you have the muscular structure of a -- of a -- something like a -- an elite athlete. You have the abilities and agility and everything else of an elite athlete. And I'm like, there's not a chance. I don't have any of that!

I don't even know if I have muscles. I have to check once in a while, and go, do I have muscles still?

Doctor is like, I don't know. Can I? Ask just press against my hand on the leg. I don't know.

You know, I don't know how to do that exactly. So --

STU: You sure it said elite athlete and not elephant? I mean, if they misspelled it.

GLENN: It was.

I was having eye problems at the time.

STU: No!

GLENN: I mean, we read it. And I was like Tania, I believe that for Tania.

Maybe they switched me and Tania. Because Tania is really strong. She'll kick your butt.

She works out every day. All of that. Me? Never. Never.

And it kind of makes me wonder, when I get to the other side, and the Lord went, okay.

So what did you do with your life again?

Because I gave this incredible body, and you wasted it the whole time.

And I'm like, you should have been more clear, okay?

You should have been more clear. I -- maybe I could have played basketball. But I tried once. And it was embarrassing. It was embarrassing. It was like sixth grade. And I'll never live -- I don't even want to think about my time on a basketball court. Okay? So don't -- don't start with me. You should have made it a little clearer. When I first started to do stuff. And I think that's fair. I think that's a fair argument. In my defense. In my defense, Your Honor, God, you should have made it a little more clear.

STU: Yeah. I mean, if they really wanted us to do this, then the 11th Commandment is 50 pushups, and -- or, 50 pullups and 100 pushups, right?

Like, put it in a commandment if you really want us to do it. You have to be more specific, we're Americans.

GLENN: Okay. So let me give you the top of the list for the JFK Presidential Fitness Test. Okay? This is what you had to do in high school. In high school.

Thirty-four pullups. Bar dips: Fifty-two. What's -- because I believe I did that. A long time. And I don't recommend it.

STU: It's not a barhop.

GLENN: Oh, it's -- oh, bar dips. Okay. Okay. All right.

Bar dips: 52. Handstand pushups: Fifty. What are handstands?

STU: Oh, my God. Handstands.

GLENN: I can't even stand on my hands. Is that I'm doing a handstand and a push up? Because that's not happening. You're not human.

STU: Yeah. You're balancing yourself on your hands. Your feet are above your hands on the wall. Like a wall. And you're doing --

GLENN: Oh, so you're balancing yourself. That makes it a little easier. Still impossible.

But a little easier.

GLENN: Impossible. You could do precisely zero of those.

Aright. So you had to do 50 handstand pushups.

Or one arm -- 30 -- no, sir.

Twenty-six one-arm burpees in 30 seconds. Is that a one-armed push up?

STU: No. Well, you're bracing your yourself like you're about to begin a pushup in a burpee with only one arm, which that's not that difficult.

But then you're doing. Then you're like, you move your feet towards your hands. And then you jump up in the air basically. And then you do it repeatedly.

GLENN: No, no, no. That's ridiculous. No.

STU: There's a law of gravity. You're not supposed to violate it. If it was a recommendation of gravity, then maybe jumping would be appropriate. But it's not. Follow the law.

GLENN: In 48 seconds, you had to do a 3300-yard shuttle. Now, I've been to the airport. I think I've done a 3300-yard shuttle, but it depends on who is driving. You know.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Rope climb. Try this. Rope climb. Twenty feet, hands only! Sit start.

STU: That's what I remember from the president's physical fitness test. And I remember looking at that rope, like, no chance I could get up that thing.

GLENN: I remember looking up at that thing. Humiliation. Humiliation is coming my way. I'll never kiss a girl, because that ain't happening. I'll get maybe 10 feet up. Maybe. Maybe.

STU: And you were right for 24 years from that time, approximately.

GLENN: Agility run, 17 seconds. Extension pressups, what? What?

I'm sorry. Why am I so tired reading this?

Extension pressups. What's an extension pressup, 8-inch? You had to do 100 of them.

STU: Let's see. Exercise. An exercise for low-back pain involving lying on your stomach and pressing your upper body up with your arms while keeping your hips relaxed and down on the mat.

GLENN: Oh, I could do that know. 8 inches.

STU: The last part of it, relaxing down on the mat.
GLENN: That's what my doctor says I should be doing. What?

STU: I can do relaxed and down on the mat. That part of it --

GLENN: Yeah. I could do that -- I'm the only guy. I took yoga for a while, like three weeks. My wife is like, yoga. You could do yoga. Let's just do yoga together.

I did. And the yoga instructor said to me. Because we were doing a plank.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And she came and all I remember her waking me up. And saying, I think you're the only person I've ever -- ever taught that fell asleep in yoga. And I'm like, it's just so relaxing. Just let me sleep. Let me sleep.

STU: That's interesting, that you did yoga. Is there any footage of that? Any video that we could post? That would be good for --

GLENN: No. There's not. You had to do pegboard. Five trips of pegboard. And I think that's when you have the two pegs.

STU: Yes, it was a board.

GLENN: You have to take it out, and put it up, right?

STU: This is American Ninja Warrior. No way.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

STU: This is amazing.

GLENN: Try this one: You had to do a 45-second handstand. I've never been able to do a handstand. Never!

STU: Never.

GLENN: And I'm an elite athlete. I'm an elite athlete. Try this one: A man carry, 5 miles.

STU: What? What do you mean a --

GLENN: Five-mile man carry.

STU: Is a man carry as obvious as it --

GLENN: I think it is.

STU: You're carrying --

GLENN: If I'm going to carry that man, you have to carry me that man for five miles.

I'm not sure, I can't carry any man for any miles. I mean, if I am -- if I am a firefighter, count on burning in the house. You're going to burn in the house. Because I can't carry you out. I can get in there and go, yeah, I will have to leave you.
I will have to leave you here. I can't help you, sorry.

It's also getting really hot in here. I have to go. You had to do a five-mile jog. An obstacle course.

You had to swim prone for a mile. You had to swim underwater for 50 yards, any strokes, two minutes. Deep waterfront, hang float, with arms. What? What is a deep water hang float with arms. Wait. Wait.

It's a deep waterfront hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes.

What kind of al-Qaeda PE class was this?

STU: Who has access to -- who has access -- like, you're in the middle of the country, you may not have a deep water body nearby. This is -- are you sure this is an actual test?

GLENN: This is the actual test. This is the actual -- what is a deep water front hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes? Can you look that up?

STU: A deep water hang float is an aquatic hang float done in the deep end of a pool with the aid of flotation device, such as a noodle or belt.

In this position, the flotation twice supports your upper body, while your legs and torso hang freely beneath you.

That can't be what it is.

GLENN: You can do that.

Deep-end of the pool.

STU: Can you bring a margarita?

GLENN: Man, this test is no big deal.

What! No way. No way!

Here's the last thing on the test.

A vertical tread in an 8-foot circle for two hours!

No way.

STU: Vertical tread in an 8-foot circle?

GLENN: So you're in the water and you're treading water in a circle for two hours. Two!

STU: This is not -- what?

This is not the test.

GLENN: It is. Now, I told you, this is the top of the test.

This is the top of the test.

So this is for the ones who could do all the other tests.

This was the top of the test. The bottom of the test is not that much better. Here's the entry, okay? Let's see. Pullups, 2/6/10. I don't know what that means. Pushups, 16, 24, 32. Bar dips, four, eight, and 12. Situps, 30, 45, and 60. Broad jump, 6-foot, 6, 6, 6. And 6, 9.

To jump 6 feet? I don't even know if --

STU: That one is possible, yes. Glenn, I know it sounds incredible. But, yes. That one is possible.

GLENN: Sounds incredible. You know, I think we should have the average person Olympics. I really do. I really do.

STU: Oh, I would watch that.

GLENN: I would watch that every time.

You see them coming. And you're like, hmm. That one -- three feet. I'm giving him 3 feet. 200-yard shuttle. Agility run. Rope climb, 18 feet, hands only. 880 yards in three minutes. A mile in seven minutes. Pegboard, six holes. A 50-yard swim. Forty -- 40, 50-yard swim in 36 seconds. Man carry, 880 yards. No, thank you! No, thank you!

Look at -- look at what we've gone down. That's the bottom of it. And I don't think most Americans could do that.

I couldn't. Well, I could. Because I'm an elite -- I have the body of an elite athlete.

STU: No. You could not. Now, of course -- let's just say, this is supposed to be for a high school kid. Right?

So this is the prime of your athletic life. Could you do some of these things? Probably.
GLENN: Go into high school.
Go into any high school, and ask them to do this. There's no way. And all of the kids would be.

STU: Well, that's kind of what the reaction would be.

GLENN: Don't get me wrong. I would have been there too. And my parents would have said, suck it up. Just do it.

So nothing has really changed.

STU: That's been the reaction to this proposal too, of bringing this back. Right? The media is covering this. Like, it's going to embarrass children.

You know, I mean, I do remember it being like, I can't do that. I'm not going to the top of that rope. That's not happening.

That's sort of life. Right? Sometimes you can do things. Sometimes you can't do other things.

GLENN: That's why you have to learn how to injure yourself.

You know, how many stairs can I throw myself down, to not do serious damage, but enough to get me out of PE.

STU: Yeah, you have to fake an why are. You have to learn from LeBron James. Act like you got hit in the eye. And fall down like you were just stabbed over and over again, like you were in an athletic competition.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Whitney Webb: How You Can BREAK FREE of the Chains of the Elites

Are you truly free, or is your life quietly controlled by systems most Americans never question? In this eye-opening conversation, Glenn Beck speaks with investigative journalist Whitney Webb about how the Elites, banks, and global systems have created modern forms of enslavement, all while the public remains largely unaware. They discuss the urgent need for local self-reliance, alternative financial systems, and taking personal responsibility to protect yourself and your family. This is a wake-up call for anyone who believes freedom is guaranteed, and it’s time to see the truth and act before it’s too late.

Claire Abernathy was just 14-years-old when doctors told her parents she’d take her own life without hormones and surgery. They promised “gender care” would save her life. Instead, it left Claire with irreversible scars, broken trust, and a lifetime of regret. Her mom was told she was required to comply. No one ever addressed the bullying, or trauma Claire endured before being rushed into medical transition. Now, years later, both Claire and her mother are speaking out and exposing how families are misled, how doctors hide risks, and how children are left to pay the price. With federal investigations now underway, their story is a warning every parent needs to hear.
