Glenn: Why would I pay far-left colleges to RUIN my kids?

Ideological companies — like Disney, for example — are taking their masks OFF. They no longer care if consumers are aware of their far-left, corporate policies because business executives believe we cannot live without them. Glenn says it’s the same way with the vast majority of colleges and universities, which is why he refuses to pay for his kids to attend one (except for ONE particular college...). After all, Glenn asks, why should parents PAY academic institutions to RUIN the values they’ve worked so hard to instill in their children?

STU: That's the thing I'm struggling to understand about Disney. Because there are companies, who do care.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: There are left-wing companies.

GLENN: That care.

STU: That care. And all they want to do -- Ben & Jerry's is a good example of that. They just don't like the Jews. They're ice cream. They're just not fans of the Jews. You know, the mint chocolate chip they have, does not like Jews. And that's just the way they run their operation.

GLENN: Wow. Wow.

STU: That is what they stand for. They've been really clear about it. As clear as you possibly can be. Please don't buy our ice cream, Jews. That is their stance. And their new slogan, by the way. If you happen to be in a convenience store today, you'll see it on the containers. Please don't buy our ice cream, Jews. It's not confirmed. But I'm pretty sure.

GLENN: All right. Huh. That's strange.

STU: But that's an ideological company that makes ice cream. Disney. Is Disney an ideological company that makes children's entertainment? Or is Disney a company that wants to make a lot of money, and thinks the best way to do that, or to appease its own employees here in the United States.

GLENN: No. It's an ideological company. It's an ideological company. And it always has been.

STU: But how can an ideological company that, for example, believes in wokeness among gays, be expanding in Oman. Why would they be going to -- they're trying to expand their operation in countries that will execute you if you're gay? An ideological company, wouldn't do that. They would -- that's putting profits over your ideology, is it not?

GLENN: Yeah. I don't know.

(laughter)

I don't know. I'm really going to surrender on that. Do you ever get that way, where you're just like, I don't really care at this point? No. It's really not on the top of my list.

STU: See, you really do care about Disney, though. More than literally anybody that I know.

GLENN: Yeah. I do.

STU: You've followed it. It's been an inspiration in your life and career.

GLENN: Walt Disney taught me -- Walt Disney and Orson Wells were the guiding guys of my life. Both good and bad.

STU: So that's a major, major part. To understand them now. Because you went through this phase, where it was Walt Disney, with this incredible vision of a company.

GLENN: I mean, it's always been an ideological company.

STU: Yeah. Back in the day.

GLENN: He was an American. Who thought America was a special place. That had special ideas. And laws, that made people free, to dream and do. And so he built his company -- that's why -- that's why all of those old shows, that, you know, you used to run around the Mickey Mouse Club time. It was always good versus evil. It was, you know, Johnnie Tremaine. It was stories. Davy Crockett. Stories of America.

And that's what he really wanted to do. And, you know, he really wanted to shore this all up. And shore the family up. I really think he saw today's America coming.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: He knew that the family and children. If given the proper tools and truth, would be able to navigate anything. And America would be the shining city on the hill. They've destroyed that. They don't believe that. They don't believe that anymore. They believe they'll be the shining city on a hill for another kind of flame. But it ain't truth.

STU: So after at some point, the ideological beginnings of Disney, under Walt. They fade away. And the criticism of them, when I was a kid. I feel like, was just churning out merch and crap.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: To maximize the amount of money. They were just a profit machine.

GLENN: Correct. Correct. And internally, they started, as they grew bigger and bigger. They started embracing all of the leftist ideas.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And that infiltrated to every level, eventually. And now, they're -- they're ideologues. But they also are businesspeople.

STU: So they bring in the cash, but -- because you look at.

GLENN: Why are we still talking about this? I said I surrender.

STU: Well, I'm just trying to understand. Because I think you look at their mainstream releases. Right? Their big budget, you know, explosive, 100 million-dollar type of releases. They don't go down these roads, all that much. I still think a lot of them are pretty acceptable. Now, when you start looking at this, that they're throwing on the Disney Channel. And some of the stuff they're targeting betweens with. And that sort of ilk of their programming. They go farther and farther and farther down these roads.

GLENN: Yeah. Because parents are taking their kids to the movies. And watching it. Because they're in the dark, and they're watching it with their kids. Television, mom and dad generally aren't watching, you know, Disney Channel online.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Or, you know, Disney TV. They're in -- maybe mom is in the kitchen, doing some stuff. Once in a while, she'll be like, wait. Wait. Hang on just a second. What is happening?

STU: Is part of this too, that these mainstream, $100 million releases, are being shown in Oman. Where the tween high school dramas, they make for Americans are not. They're not getting imported to Saudi Arabia.

GLENN: No. No.

STU: So these big things are. So they keep those pretty safe. And that's what makes me, you know, again, I know you've surrendered on this already. But that's what makes me think they are more than judging the playing surface, than a hard-core ideological company. I think they're filled with a lot of hard-core ideological people, particularly on the creative side of things, as we saw in these videos this week.

GLENN: Always have been.

STU: But they're not acting this way, all the way around the world. They're acting this way, because they seem to --

GLENN: They don't act this way, when they were still hard-core. Hard-core ideologies for the left. They didn't act this way, until they felt the tide has changed. We're now in control.

STU: Right.

GLENN: You notice all these companies are coming out, and taking their masks off. They don't care anymore. They just don't care. You will do what the big corporations say, because you can't live without us. I can't wait to get to my farm, so I can prove them wrong.

(laughter)

I am just -- I'm sick of it. I'm sick of it. They are taking our children, down this -- this path. I mean, I -- I am not sending my kids to college. I will not do it.

STU: Really?

GLENN: I will not do it.

STU: What if you could find a college, and there are some, that seem to have good -- you know, good programs?

GLENN: I would send them to Hillsdale.

STU: Right. Like Hillsdale is an example.

GLENN: That's it.

STU: There might be -- there might be others. We have talked to --

GLENN: Yeah. I'm not going to.

STU: You just don't want to take --

GLENN: No, I'm not going to take any chance.

STU: They're going to go on their own if they go.

GLENN: Yeah, you're 18. You could do what you want. I'm not paying somebody to destroy you. And to destroy everything that I have worked hard to instill in you.

STU: I have to say, I think more and more people are getting to that.

GLENN: I hope so.

STU: I'm there. I mean, I've always felt like the credentialism of college, is completely overvalued anyway.

GLENN: Yeah. What are you -- what are you -- Stu. Have we ever -- ever, ever, went, oh, well. He went to college for broadcasting. Oh, so we should listen to him.

STU: No. But we weren't a dumb business. I got to --

GLENN: No. We are in a dumb business.

STU: Right.

GLENN: But are they any smarter than us? No. Because they don't learn anything that is real. Nothing.

STU: This is stealing I think Bryan Caplan's example here. But like, if a person goes to college, and they have all A-pluses. And on the very last day before graduation, they resign. Don't show up for graduation. Don't get a degree. And the next person comes through, and they get all D-minuses all throughout college, but they squeak through and graduate. The vast majority of this country, would hire the guy with the D-minuses.

GLENN: Of course.

STU: Because they would say, they have a degree in college. That is the dumbest. Any individual person, with a sense at all, could look at that situation, and say, obviously. The person who got all A-pluses all throughout college, is the one you should hire. And yet this system is set up, so that the person with the D-minuses will get hired in almost all situations. That's insanity. That's insanity. It's got to change.

GLENN: And how many people do you know that are wildly successful, that maybe went to a little college or no college, and then if they went to college, they dropped down. This is a waste of time.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: I mean, how many women's studies, you know, ethnic studies, you know, sexual studies, you know, do I really need? Do I really need to be able to do business here? To be able to -- wait a minute. I'm working for a bank. I need women and children's studies for what reason? No.

STU: Right. Well, this is a problem, I think too. In that, you see the way -- look at the way our situation is set up right now. You have these big tech companies and they go to these fact-checkers, and the fact-checkers ask experts to get what the right opinion is.

GLENN: Where do they get those experts?

STU: Right. Exactly. And this is the problem. There are no conservative gender study experts. Now, there is obviously an argument on the conservative side for these issues.

GLENN: But there's no experts.

STU: Debra Soh, we talked to before. She's not a conservative. But she at least has some rational thinking on this.

GLENN: But they've kicked her out --

STU: They've kicked her out. When they get people who go against the grain, they kick them out.

And generally speaking, a person who is conservative, is not going to college -- to want to study gender issues. It's not within our interest set. But if we don't have experts, at all, that are ever provided. When these journalists go to the fact-checkers, there's no one to ask.

GLENN: Right. This is the problem. We have made people who have gone to college, and have a degree. They are the experts. No matter what they believe. Over somebody else who can maybe not go to college. But has really tracked -- take economics. Economics. We are going to the experts. To solve inflation. The same experts that caused inflation. And while us nonexperts said, you can't do that. It will inflate the money. The experts said, it don't. It won't. This time, it's different. We said, no, it's not. Now, I don't have a degree in economics. I do have something called a brain cell. You must have none. And what happens? We go to the experts. And as it collapses, because of their recommendations. And their systems. They are the only ones we'll go to for the answer.

STU: That's a real problem.

GLENN: That's insane. That is the definition of insanity.

STU: And we've reached, I think, I would think. Is the peak of this. Just over the last couple of weeks. One of the most highly educated people in our society, about to be named in the Supreme Court. And thinks she needs to go to a biologist to find out what a woman is.

GLENN: Yep.

STU: This is completely bonkers.

GLENN: Check the pants. Check the junk. I mean, I would have even given you. I can't -- hang on just a second. And checked in her pants, okay. I know how to define a woman. I would have taken that. You know, a moment of hesitation. But not that answer.

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…

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

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.

STU: Coming up next, Glenn attempts live pullups on the air. Stay tuned!
(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

THIS is why self-reliance may be your ONLY protection from SLAVERY

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's warning: The dark side of gender care EXPOSED

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.
