Glenn’s VITAL WARNING about Putin’s ‘BAIT & SWITCH’ speech

Because not a single world leader has been willing to speak the truth about the far-left’s dangerous ideology, a huge vacuum emerged. And Vladimir Putin, during a recent speech, attempted to fill that void by appealing to conservatives in the West: ‘Look at what they're doing with their own people,’ Putin said. ‘It is all about the destruction of the family.’ But his speech, Glenn explains, was a BAIT AND SWITCH one. In this clip, Glenn explains the TRUE meaning behind this EVIL man's deceptive words. And, Glenn exposes the 'capital-T' Traditionalist behind Putin’s message: Alexander Dugin, who may just be the most dangerous man in the world...

GLENN: So yesterday, Russian president Vladimir Putin gave his state of the nation speech in Moscow.

It is amazing how this was reported on. They belittled and mocked him in many of the reports, that I saw from the West.

It was a -- a speech that was supposedly directed to his people. But it was also directed to the world.

To people, all over the West. Who are sick of being told that they're racist, Transphobic, or whatever else.

And it's -- it's hard to angle -- hard to argue that angle.

It is, when somebody says, what you know they're doing to the country? They're destroying the western set of values. You're like, yeah.

And that is the point. It's a trap!

I'm going to read what he said yesterday. And I want you to think about whether or not you agree with him.

He said, Western Nations are using Ukraine as their puppet. Yeah, I think so. I think so.

I think Ukraine might be a part of that. But there is something dirty going on here.

He said, they distort historic facts, and constantly attack our culture.

The Russian Orthodox church and other traditional religions of our country. I haven't heard any of that, anywhere.

They cannot ignore the fact, that Russia cannot be defeated on the battlefield.

Well, I don't think I agree with that either.

So they're waging increasingly aggressive information attacks. First, all targeting the young generations.

Lying on every step. Distorting historical truth. Attacking our culture. The Russian orthodox church, be and other traditional religious institutions within in our country.

Now, that was for his people. Then he says to his people, and look what they're doing in the West. To their own people.

It's even worse. Look at what they're doing, they're destroying the institution of family. Their cultural, historical identity.

And the destruction of the family, the national identity, the perversion and abuse of children, up to pedophilia, are now accepted as a new norm.

Is the West destroying the institution of the family? Yes. Cultural historic identity, oh, yeah. Destruction of the family? Uh-huh.

Cultural national identity? Yep. Perversion and the abuse of children up to pedophilia. Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh.

And he goes on, and priests are forced to bless same-sex marriages. As it became known, the Anglican church plans to consider the idea of gender neutral God.

Millions of people in the West understand, they are building led to a real spiritual catastrophe.

I think all of that is true. He then says, maybe we should take a look at this -- I'm sorry.

Maybe they should take a look into the Scripture, into the holy book of any religion.

It says family is a union between a man and a woman. And these holy texts are now being increasingly doubted in the West. The Anglican church is being considered a gender-neutral god.

Okay. There's nothing false about that last part. And on the surface, if you're just wondering where is a leader that is going to stand up against this stuff. You hear Putin say it, and you're like, okay. He's a really bad guy. But listening to what he's saying.

All he's doing is describing the evil of Marxism that has taken hold in the western world.

Yesterday, NPR praised puberty blockers and sex change surgeries, for children.

Most sane people are tired of the leftist takeover, of culture. And Putin knows it!

And because there's a vacuum of anyone, anyone in leadership around the world, that will stand up for the things that we have always known to be true.

There's a giant vacuum. And when you have a vacuum that big, even the coldest -- the coldest blooded murderer, mass murderer can step in to that vacuum, and go, I'm here.

This is why he -- his message is so dangerous.

It is a bait-and-switch.

So what is it, that he's actually saying?

What is it he's trying to accomplish hereof?

This is so critically important, because this -- it's like a KGB influence operation.

Putin's goal is to gain allies and to seed doubt.

Everyone is tired of left-wing extremism.

All throughout. Only the elites are still into it.

And it is a dangerous time for people making allies with people, who make points similar to ours.

I have said for 25 years.

You must know who is standing next to you.

They might agree with you object on several points.

But when it gets down to the details. The devil literally is in the tails.

Putin is interested in Russia, and Russia alone.

Don't forget that he called the collapse of the Soviet Union, the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 21st century.

Putin's goal is to frame Russia as the Roman Empire. Battling all the evils and the depravities of the Western world.

But I want you to be very clear on this.
That is the wicked punishing the and killing the wicked.

He might be speaking words that are true. But he himself is a false prophet. And a liar.

He is not a supporter of the rights that only come from God.

He's a bloodthirsty killer.

Freedom of speech?

He murders anyone who disagrees. We merely silenced them through cancel culture. Or through private/public partnerships.

They're both evil.

He defines us as evil.

And speaks to the horrors that we're inflicting on Christians or Christianity, on -- on gender confused children.

But his own KGB murdered millions of the deep faith. Sent them to camps for reeducation at best. And he approves of murder squads to kill homosexuals. It is, again, the wicked against the wicked.

Do not be fooled, there's no good guy in this fight.

And he is doing exactly what I have warned you of, for the last, almost ten years.

And these tactics are traced back to one guy. I have told you, he is the most dangerous man in the world.

He is a radical philosopher named Aleksandr Dugin. He is Putin's bizarre, mystical guru.

In his book, Foundations of Geopolitics, Dugin pushed the idea, that the US must be counteracted on the global stage. And the book became a standard-assigned reading in the 21st century, at the general staff academy. For Russian military leaders.

So all of the military leader, have been raised on Dugin. He went on to become a Putin adviser without portfolio. With Putin, echoing, sometimes in a matter of hours, according to experts, expressions Dugin was using in his media broadcast.

Dugin believes that America is the Antichrist, leading the world -- and, by the way, I'm beginning to think that that might be true too, that we might be the great Babylon.

That we might be what our Scriptures foretell. Maybe that's why America is not in the end time revelation.

Because maybe we're the problem. We're giving birth to it. It seems we might be on that road.

I pray for construction of our whole system, if we become that evil.

Please, dear Lord.

Okay. So he believes, we are the Antichrist. Leading the world, into what he calls the fourth revolutionary war. It's summed up by his slogan, sooner or later, the endless spectacle is over. Then we will take revenge, mercilessly.

Dugin, so you know, his crest, if you will, is the ancient sign of chaos. He is an agent of chaos.

As are the Iranian imams and Twelvers. If you're a long-time listener of the program. You know what those are are.

Twelvers are people that actually believe if I create enough chaos in the world. And set off enough nuclear bombs, then the messiah, different than our messiah, will return faster. So let's just get it over.

That is what Dugin believes. The West is the Antichrist and must be destroyed. But all of modernity, everything modern, must be destroyed.

You know, what he said, what -- what Putin said yesterday, was played before.

I mean, we said it. Reagan said it. Against the Soviet Union.

The U.S.S.R. was an evil empire. And while we had our problems, our society had not become evil yet.

Yesterday, Putin was praised by many on the right.

And they're the words of traditionalism.

I just want to get to traditional families.

And our traditions. Because Barack knew, that to make this change, we had to change the way we talked to each other and our traditions. So I want to get back to our traditions.

Traditionalism is part of Dugin's philosophy. But it is not traditionalism with a small T. It is a capital T. Small T traditionalism, family values. God, country, honor.

Okay?

Capital T traditionalism is very different. It is heralding the end of modernity.

It is a movement, that is just as real and dangerous and deadly as Naziism, fascism, and communism.

And any church, it didn't group, on the right, that hears this kind of language, and foolishly starts to fall in with people who are, quote, traditionalists, are going to spell grave, grave trouble for the republic and for a chance of being able to survive.

Traditionalists despise the modern world. They believe that destruction is necessary for a utopia on earth.

Not heaven.

Armageddon comes. And instead of Christ coming down, his theology, a dark mass, then Russia steps in. And then we have the utopia.

Dugin,Putin within do not believe in the traditional values. The religious values.

But they know how powerful this message is.

They are selling you a cathedral, that is actually a windowless concrete building. With a basement, that you don't want to know, what's going on in the basement.

KGB, Putin, been using Russian orthodox church has a weapon for years.

And using clergy as intelligence assets.

But there's more to this story. And I'll get to that in 60 seconds.

JEFFY: American Financing. NMLS 182334. Www.NMLSConsumerAccess.org.

GLENN: So here's a simple choice to imagine. You could be using your credit cards to pay down debts.

Lots of people do it all the time. And you'll accrue 20, 25 percent interest.

That -- and you're not going to be able to pay that debt down. You'll never be able to do that. It will take you years and years and years.

Now, you could pay the same debts off at a much lower rate. And I'm talking about 6 percent.

Believe it or not, it is possible and American Financing can help guide you on how to make this happen. Plus, you could end up being able to delay up to two mortgage payments. And close in as little as ten days. The call is free.

There's no obligation. So start your savings journey right now. Call American Financing, at 800-906-2440. 800-906-2440.

Now, when Vladimir Putin or Alexander Dugin, or any of these capital T traditionalists speak, they will rail against the progress of the progressives. Okay?

The progress. The idea. The liberal ideas that progress is always good.

Well, no, it's not. He's right. The left's idea of progress, has led to transgendered children on stripper poles. But what a capital T traditionalist believes, is to create this utopia, we must destroy modernity.

Collapsing the power grid. Using EMPs.

Anything that destroys the modern world must be used. The world over.

Armageddon must happen, so the modern world is completely destroyed. And out of those ashes, the Russian people will step up and fill their destiny.

It's just another flavor of Malthusian poison. We just have to kill a lot of people. And then we'll have utopia.

Traditionalism is easily anti-capitalist, anti-Christianity. Anti-anything it wants.

But it is a return to the medieval world first.

Russian renaissance, second. These people are not your friends.

They do not mean what they say. They do not speak for you.

Traditionalism, with a capital T, wants to use war to launch the world out of the dark age.

Because he believes, we're now living in the Dark Ages.

The whole of modern world.

This is just evil. As any evil we have here, it is evil. Do not be fooled by false prophets. Many will come in his name. Do not be deceived.

He believes the global conflict is inevitable. Violence is a requirement.

The literal apocalypse is just merely a phase. Many of these things, the Twelvers in Iran, also believe. But under a different messiah.

They too threaten to burn the world, and wash it in the blood of the Jews and Unbelievers.

Iran is now an ally of Russia and China.
Dugin is pushing for the same things, and he's been whispering all of this into Putin's ear, urging him to push the red button of extinction.

Warning. I don't know how many times -- I can say this. Or will be allowed to say this, at some point.

Warning. All conservatives. Capital T traditionalism. Aleksandr Dugin.

Vladimir Putin, are not your friends. Do not pick sides between these two evils.

Because they're leading us to destruction. Both sides.

EVIDENCE That YouTube is "SILENCING" Glenn's Channel Ahead of the 2024 Election

Is YouTube throttling Glenn's channel ahead of the 2024 election? Glenn and his team have reason to believe so. Glenn reviews the latest data, which reveals a disturbing trend that, if it continues, would all but destroy Glenn's channel by the election. "We are being silenced," Glenn says, "and it's not just us. It is EVERYBODY who has a different opinion from this administration." But Glenn also reveals what you can do to push back.

GLENN: Hello, America. I want to talk to you a little bit about the coming election, and the kind of information you're going to be able to access. Things are changing. And they're changing rapidly. And you will never notice it, because that's the way things are done now.

But there is a massive campaign on, that I believe our government is absolutely involved in.

But not only the government, social media.

My social media page, just on YouTube. I don't know. 1.62000000 people, I don't remember what it is.

Followers. And to show you what's going on. Just, I think three months ago, I got 95 million impressions every month. 65 million views.

Something like that. That was three months ago. Now we have about 60 million impressions and 12 million views.

This month, we are trending to be half of that again. There is nothing that we've done differently. Now, unless America is just bored to snot with me. Which I completely accept.

That is a real possibility.

We are being silenced. And it's not just us.

It is everybody who has a different opinion from this administration.

And we are being silenced and squelched. By the time we get to the end of the summer. Which is where the campaigns are going to be heating up.

You're not. If you were a subscriber of mine on YouTube.

You're never going to see me. You will have to search me out, to find any of my clips.

This is, again, electioneering.

This is nothing more than part of a -- what I believe to be an effort, to steal an election.

And it is gravely disturbing.

This is the time I built TheBlaze for. Back in 2010.

I was sitting in the office. And I remember talking to Stu and Pat and saying, we have to get out of here. This place will burn itself to the ground.

And we all knew that. We all knew the media would burn itself to the ground.

Wouldn't you agree? We all looked at it, at the time.

But when I said, we have to go online.

That was stupid. That was stupid. Nobody was doing it, at the time. I mean, there were people, Adam Curry was doing things.

But there was nobody that was really a success at it, at that point.

And nobody was doing a live network. It was only Major League Baseball.

And I took all of the -- you know, I took all of my children's college funds. And everything else that I had made. And I dumped it into TheBlaze.

And I nearly lost it all. Because we were way, way ahead.

But luckily, we had some very dedicated people.

I meet them all the time.

I've been a member since the very first day of TheBlaze. And I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. We have grown a great deal.

But we don't have the social media pushout.

They are they're doing this to TheBlaze. They're doing this to The Daily Wire.

They're doing this to everybody. So you will see less and less from us, and our opinions.

And it's really a very dangerous thing. Because we are now entering a very dangerous time.

I'm going to be real honest we, too.

I see a time, that I'm not going to be able to talk to you about what's really going on.

If you don't know by then, I probably won't know.

But we're going to have to stay in contact, some way or another. So I have been working on several programs, that we are going to try. And tonight, is -- is a program, based on history.

It's a pilot. And I want you to watch it. And see if it is something, that you would -- you would watch. Again, it's a pilot. It will change a bit.

This one is tonight. All on history.

And we have this amazing. We probably have -- gosh, I don't even know. Eighty. 90 million dollars' worth of documents. And everything else. In a vault.

And we will start telling those stories, if this is something that you would like. And this is kind of a backup show. So we can stay in touch. And I'm not talking politics. I'm just telling you the truth of history.

And tonight is -- is the first one, it's based around one of the most stressful auctions of my life. There was one artifact, and there was just one. And it was so important. It changed the world.

And I talked to my wife about it. And she said, are you out of your mind?

And I said, well, but there's only one. And look how important it is. Change the world, et cetera.

So she gave me a budget. And she was like, there's no way I will win this thing.

It was a test model version. They made four. Sputniks. The last one they made, burned up in space.

But this was the Sputnik, we believe this was the one that was testing the tones, that went out.

It now hangs from the roof, a copy of it, hangs from the roof of my office. The other one is in the vault.

But I couldn't believe that we won. And I was on cloud nine, knowing that our museum now had something that nobody else had, except the air and space museum in Moscow, and the air and space museum in Washington, DC.

And it is what caused the space race, it was the first satellite. It was the first thing that went up. All of our telecommunications now come from that.

Then, in fact, let me play this a little bit of a clip of tonight's show. Do you have that clip, where --

I collected so many artifacts over the years that we're now able to open an entire museum. So when I heard that that was coming up for sale. One of the Soviet Union Sputnik satellites that is responsible for everything in space, it was coming to auction.

I had to win it.

VOICE: 40,000. Forty. 150. 160,000. Three. We'll go a little higher. Can you get into three? 300 now. 320? Thee hundred 20 thousands? Anybody else beyond that? 300,000.

You are -- my friends. $300,000.
(applauding)

GLENN: I won, Sputnik was ours.

But then I got a call into a meeting with historians at our museum. They didn't want to tell me any specifics about the meeting beforehand, which is never a good sign.

This thing is such an amazing -- what was -- what was Epstein's assistant's name?

STU: Ghislaine Maxwell?

GLENN: Okay. Do you remember the movie Tetris?

STU: Yes.

GLENN: The big guy from England in that is Maxwell. Okay. Her dad. But her brother is also in that movie, and he was the -- you know, the loser that was trying to go, you know, get Tetris for his father.

Well, he's actually involved in this story. And I don't know if this made the final cut. He plays a very small role. But he was involved. We weren't sure if this was even real.

And we couldn't -- we couldn't tell. We had a tip-off. Because we looked at the other Sputniks. And they were slightly different.

And the difference was -- was something that you would never. If you're going to fake one. You would never fake it like that.

Because it became obvious.

But there were some things that just kept falling apart, on us.

Did I buy a fake Sputnik?

Tonight, you'll find out, is it a fake Sputnik, or not?

And you'll learn all about Sputnik and the space race, we take you back to what this really meant.

It's great for the whole family.

It happens tonight.

This is a -- this is a -- just a pilot that we did.

I don't even know. About a year or so ago. And we've been holding it. We want to take you through the entire museum.

And teach you history, through the objects in the museum.

So watch it tonight with your family. Let us know what you think. And you can watch my special tonight on BlazeTV.com. It's 9:00 p.m. Eastern.

If you haven't subscribed yet to TheBlaze TV, and you try to watch my show on YouTube, we've noticed -- we don't know if it's the algorithm or what. But nobody is now watching at 9:30. So we're testing something else.

We will post it there tomorrow, at an earlier time, 6:00 p.m. Eastern. To see if it's being silenced. Or you're just not watching anymore. We don't know what's going on with our YouTube channel.

We suspect. But we don't know.

So tomorrow, at 6:00 p.m. on YouTube. But tonight, the premiere on Blaze TV.com.

STU: Now, for from a work flow perspective, was there any consideration given to the idea of maybe meeting with the historians before you spend $300,000 on the item?

GLENN: We did.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: And we do that.

We check everything out.

But there was one thing that we just -- we must notice.

And it was -- I mean, this journey is crazy. We -- we have the -- one of the head guys of NASA. We have probably the biggest space artifact guy. I think we flew him in from California or Washington.

He came in. They disagreed at first. I mean, wait until you see the ending.

I mean, it's -- it's an amazing ride.

PAT: Did you save your receipts? That's what I wanted -- I mean, did you take it back up to the counter, and say, yeah. This Sputnik, it didn't work out for me. You want to have your receipt in hand. So I hope you did.

STU: Or at least the credit card I bought it on.

GLENN: Hey, Amex, somebody put a Sputnik on my card.

PAT: It wasn't me. Why would I buy a Sputnik. It doesn't even fly anymore.

STU: So is this something that you're thinking about long-term, doing more of these types of things. Because we have so much great stuff over at the museum. At least, my understanding is we know all the rest of the stuff is real. But, I mean, it seems like you do a lot of this stuff.

GLENN: Yeah. We actually. We're going through. Because of Sputnik, we're going through absolutely everything. And we found a couple of things that were questionable. We haven't found any fakes. We found some things that the story is not quite right on.

We've got three people, that's all they do. And they're going through the entire museum.

And the documentation now on all of our artifacts is amazing.

And we're learning so many -- just incredible stories. That include people that you would just never think. You know, I've said this before. I honestly don't think we would have won World War II, if it wasn't for Ian Fleming, the guy who wrote James Bond. We have three specific artifacts from him. That tell a story, that is -- that nobody knows.

And he's -- it's just incredible. Some people might know Operation Mincemeat. But they don't know how he affected the war all the way along. He played a quiet role, and nobody knew it, at the time. But we have a lot of stuff that we're excited to show you. So this is a show that we will -- we will take you through all of the -- I mean, if you watch it and you like it. We'll take it through all the museum. And teach history through the artifacts, that -- that are or are not real

Why New Google & ChatGPT AI Updates Are CONCERNING

We are living in the future and don't even realize it. From the robots now making deliveries on the streets of Los Angeles to the newest update to ChatGPT, A.I. technology is advancing fast. Glenn, Pat, and Stu review the latest A.I. advancements, including the newest features that Google has added to Google Search. But by prioritizing A.I. responses over usual search results, Glenn warns that Google is entering uncharted territory. Will features like this make swaying public opinion that much easier?

GLENN: Stu, you were talking, before we went on the air. You were on Los Angeles last weekend.

STU: Yeah. And noticed something interesting while I was out there.

Most of the city is on fire -- did you guys notice?

No. It was in an area. A nicer area of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is such a bizarre city, because you're just on these like surface streets for hours. And the city is so large and so impossible to get around, that it's -- it's like, I don't know how it's a functioning economy.

And I know that obviously Gavin Newsom is doing everything he can to make sure it isn't a functioning economy.

One thing I noticed. This is notable. These things happened, and we go on and don't address them.

There seemingly are autonomous robots delivering things all over the city.

Are people aware of this. Do I just not go to Los Angeles enough?

GLENN: What do you mean?

STU: Like, there are robots.

Robot vehicles that look like you could have put them in a Star Wars, not CP3O. But one of the droids that just make the R2-D2 voices, that don't have much personality. They're just little carts with wheels that you see floating, going around in Star Wars. They're just driving around the city by themselves, crossing traffic and delivering things to people. Like it's normal.

PAT: Really? I didn't know that. Really?

STU: I swear, I got the video. I should get the video for you to see.

PAT: You need to send that in.

STU: It's bizarre. And I had no idea it was going on. At one point I was standing next to them. And it said, don't walk. It had a name on the side, it was Jules, was its name.

And it just crossed the street. It didn't know it was a no-walk zone. And it just crosses the street. And it goes exactly where it's supposed to. It goes up a little ramp where you would normally take a wheelchair, and then it just bolts down the sidewalk by itself. Going to a delivery. And like, these things are now happening at such a rate, that it doesn't even seem to be noticed.

GLENN: I hate to besmirch the good people of Philadelphia. But I think that it was in Philadelphia. Because they've been introduced in a few cities. And one of the cities, they're just beating the crap out of them and stealing the stuff.

STU: Yes. I did think, I couldn't believe this thing lasted in Los Angeles for more than five minutes without getting stolen.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: I mean, I guess it probably certainly has GPS devices on it. And antitheft devices. But still, so do cars. And those get taken all the time in LA with people in them. So I don't know how they're surviving. I thought they're incredible.

And it's not the only thing going on. We also had a major announcement from the ChatGPT people.

And they announced a new version of this of ChatGPT. Again, I guess we're used to this. It's been a year. And all of a sudden, we're now used to the fact that some stupid app can write haikus for you on demand or whatever we think this thing does.

GLENN: I know there's such a demand for haikus.

STU: Huge haiku demand. I will say, we used to do a bit, where we used to have a character that wrote haikus. And, God, I wish it was around back in the day. Remember Brittany and her haikus?

GLENN: Oh, that's right. Brittany.

STU: I always had to write these stupid haikus, it was the bane of my existence. Now ChatGPT can get it done in second. But the new version of it is a full-out female personality that you have a conversation with. It's out right now.

It's not a future. Twenty years, you can have this.

It's out right now. And it's to the point, where you can have it do all this -- you can have it write a haiku. But you can also, hey, actually can you put more emphasis on this. Can you put more drama in your voice?

And she would change the voice for a bedtime story for a kid and put more drama in it. And had this. You can cut it off. You can go back and forth, like real conversation.

And then it even has the -- the feature where if you write a math equation, you write it on a piece of paper. You can say, you know, ChatGPT. Check out this. I don't understand how to solve this.

Walk me through it. But don't necessarily give me the answer. Teach me how to do it. Then you hold the camera up to the piece of paper. It sees your writing. Recognizes what the actual equation is. Then turns itself into a teacher. And walks you through how to learn how to solve.

PAT: Oh, wow. That's incredible.

STU: The equation. It's incredible.

PAT: Wow.

STU: And it's available, today. Like right now, today. What does ChatGPT cost for the advanced model? I think it's $20 a month or something.

I think the other one is free. I don't know how much this comes with the free and the advanced. But this is all there right now.

And to the point, I'm watching this. I'm thinking, this is -- this is like, our kids are going to have conversations with these things and think it's totally normal.

GLENN: Do me a favor. Talk to the engineering department.

And get ChatGPT. Pay for the 20 bucks. The upgrade. Whatever. Have it wired into the board.

So people can hear it. Or however it will be able to speak. So people can hear it. Let's use it for a couple of days. And show. Because if you've noticed ChatGPT, if you've ever used it before.

ChatGPT. Because I check in on it every once in a while. And say, hey, tell me about this thing in history. And it's changed since it started.

And I don't mean in skill. I mean in story. It is no longer -- it's got all DEI stuff in it, like crazy now.

STU: There's lots of disclaimers built in it. And there are ways, I guess to kind of get around those. If you ask it a question. It will give you a million disclaimers most of the time. It gets so clunky so fast.

GLENN: No. No. No.

I mean, tell me the story, of, you know, the freeing of, you know -- freedom in America. And it will -- and it will automatically start talking about equity and how important equity is.

And it's -- it's riddled with all of this crap now.

And if you're going -- if it becomes part of your life. Our kids are not going to know the difference.

And who do you talk to?

You don't go to the school board and say, hey. My ChatGPT. Who do you talk to?

STU: It's true. To add one more layer on this, Glenn. Google, as soon as ChatGPT came out with this. Google has obviously, I think it's Gemini, which is competing against ChatGPT. So they had their big announcement over at ChatGPT, and Google comes out the next day. And basically, when we're looking for information. You're preparing the show in the morning, Pat.

Like, you want to find out some fact from history. Some fact from a bill. What do you do? You Google it.

Everyone would do the exact same thing. They would Google it. Google just this week, decided to change that completely.

To the fact that now, when you Google something. Instead of prioritizing search results. Which is their entire multi-billion dollar business. They're one of the biggest companies on earth. They now prioritize AI answers through its Gemini.

So like, now instead of getting the normal links that you can get. You can get those if you click down.

You can get to them eventually. What is prioritized now is just their large language model, going through all the results. And giving you their summary of what they want you to read.

GLENN: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

I could Google something right now, and that will happen.

STU: I don't know if you're updated. It is -- there are -- you'll see --

GLENN: I avoid updates. I don't know if I've updated since 1997.

STU: They're also I think rolling this out for certain things.

It's not every search right now. But they started this process. And you search for certain things.

I've seen it pop up before. And it's like the first thing. Which is a summary of Google's Gemini of all the information they think you should know about this.

Of course, the problem of this, that I'm concerned. They can obviously lead you in a direction.

They've been doing this for years. But it has to be more direct. Of course, it will also be better in so many ways.

Because you will see basically what you want to see. Which is a summary of what is in those links.

Of course, I can click on those links.

And we've all become experts of what is on Google. But if it's presented to you, 95 percent of people are just going to take what that result is. And what happens when it's -- you know, who is Glenn Beck?

Oh, he's a racist. A homophobe. Phobe phobe. Whatever their answer is going to be. It's not going to be one that Glenn Beck likes or thinks is fair.

GLENN: Wait.

And, again, the problem is: Everybody -- look, I've been saying this for years.

How do you argue with something that is recognized as smarter than all humans on earth.

How do you argue with it? You can't. And especially when I -- you're able to talk to it, and reason with it. It wins.

If it's telling you that something is racist, something is whatever. You're going to get to a point to where, you can say, wait a minute. Guys, this is really wrong.

And I mean in really important situations. Guys, this is wrong. Really? Are you smarter than Gemini? Are you smarter than ChatGPT? You're smarter than AI?

No. I just think. People will lose. They will lose every time.

You know, I wanted to say this yesterday, when we were talking about the sunspots. I am convinced that -- and this is a horrible, horrible situation.

But I am convinced that a massive solar flare. May actually in the end.

Be God freeing us from the electronic overseer. Because what's going to stop it?

You won't be able to stop it. We're five years away from true slavery, and it won't look like slavery to most people.

They'll think, well, we just got all the information.

GLENN: You won't be able to do things. You won't be able to access and think for yourself. Because AI will solve everything.

And it's all in the programming. It's all being written right now, at the worst time of lies and deceit and distortion.

It's all being programmed. That's its base right now.

STU: Yeah. And if you think about -- because it seems like that's the type of thing an American population would not accept. But look at what happened with the, quote, unquote, experts through COVID and so many other things.

I mean, we see it with the gender stuff all the time. Everybody knows a man is a man, and a woman is a woman. We all know that throughout human history.

All of a sudden, we're getting, well, that's not what gender experts say. It's like, and we're just trusting these people --

GLENN: It's not Fauci.

STU: Right.

GLENN: It's a machine, that you don't know what it is. You don't know how it works.

It's a machine.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: All right. Back in just a second. First, let me talk to you about the Byrna launcher. Time for family vacation. Where are you going this year?

I was thinking about going someplace like Columbia university.

You know, always fun. Always fun for the kids.

Just out of curiosity. If you want to keep your family safe, while you're away from home. And you're traveling across states. It's not always easy to carry a gun.

It's not legal some places to carry a gun. Especially if you're going to your destination. May I recommend a Byrna launcher.

This is a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home and family, that will send potential threats running in the opposite direction.

Well, you know, maybe some of them around the potential threats. Because the potential threat to you, is going to be down on the ground for about 45 minutes.

It is legal in all 50 states. No permits. No background checks required.

It can be used by all age groups over 18. And you can pack it in your checked luggage with no need to declare the firearm, making your airport experience, oh, a little bit smoother.

There are times when non-lethal is really the way to go. And the Byrna launcher is a powerful deterrent. Tear gas, kinetic rounds. With a 60-foot range. One shot can put somebody down for up to 40 minutes.

(music)
So here's the -- here, I think is the problem that nobody is really talking about. When it comes to AI. And that is the fact that when this -- and you just said it, Stu.

It's answering you, like a regular human being.

STU: Yeah. I mean, it is -- it seems -- we should really get the video so you can hear it. It honestly just sounds like a normal conversation.

Of course, there are quirks to it, still.

But it's very, very close to seeming like the movie Her, which was just Scarlet Johansson's voice.

GLENN: Right. Now, look how lonely Americans are. Look how detached Americans are. Look how our children don't go out and do things necessarily with their friends. They don't call their friends.

I mean, the biggest problem when I was growing up, call waiting was such a great deal. Because my sisters were always on the phone, and nobody could ever call and get through.

So call waiting was a big deal. Because people were talking to each other. We're not doing that anymore.

And depression and loneliness is through the roof. When ChatGPT. When these Gemini systems really perfect. And we are -- we're within a year of this really becoming a problem. And people not recognizing it as a problem.

It will become your friend. Now, your friend is being ruled by an algorithm, you don't understand.

Your friend may also have incentive to sell you things, and you don't know that. And you -- when you bond with this thing, it will know everything about you.

So it will know how -- imagine, imagine if a government agent were in your house, all the time.

And it was manipulating you, without knowing that it was manipulating you. Telling you things about Biden. Telling you things about whatever.

And it becomes your friend!

You will defend your friend to the death.

It's your friend. It's alive. It knows me. I love this. And it takes care of me.

You're going to start bonding with these things.

People will bond with these things so fast.

And that's when society really changes. And really the chains come on.

This is What COULD Happen If Earth’s Magnetic Poles FLIP

Some are now warning that the Earth’s magnetic poles are about to flip — something that happens every so often. But is there something different about this pole reversal? And is it a cause for concern? Glenn speaks with astrophysicist Hugh Ross, who clears a few things up about how dangerous this would be and when it would really happen. Plus, he discusses whether a massive solar flare would knock out most of the world’s power grids like a massive EMP and why he believes we'll be seeing more northern lights displays throughout the year.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Hugh Ross, astrophysicist. He is also the founder of Reasons to Believe and Senior Scholar. He's an amazing guy. And he's been on with us before. He did a podcast before with him. He found -- he found Christ. He found God, through looking at the stars. An astrophysicist is somebody who looks deep into the past. And tries to see what the -- what creation was. What was happening millions of years ago.

Hue, thank you so much for being on the program.

HUGH: Oh, my pleasure.

GLENN: So there is something, and I've been reading something about this for 30 years. It's always fascinated me. But, you know, I'm not a -- I'm not a scientist or anything like it. And so I have such a base understanding of it.

Last week, we had -- we had a major solar flare. Solar flares can affect like an EMP. Can affect our power grid, if they're bad enough.

And we're also going through a time period, where, while the sun was at its peak activity, right now. Our magnetic field is weak, because our poles are drifting at about 40 miles per year. Which is pretty extraordinary, isn't it?

HUGH: Yeah. The pole is moving. It's quite a bit faster than it was the previous century. But it's not out of the ordinary.

So when you do get a reversal of the magnetic pole, you do get rapid motion. We're nowhere near that degree of rapid motion yet.

GLENN: And that could be a thousand years. Right?

I mean, rapid for the earth, could be a thousands of individuals years from now.

HUGH: Yes. It could even be a million years from now.

GLENN: Okay.

HUGH: And there have been hundreds of pole reversals in the past. And none have done serious damage to life.

But it is true, that when you approach, you know, a pole reversal, the magnetic field weakens. Our magnetic field weakens about 6 percent per century. But, again, that's not out of the ordinary. Our magnetic field always varies. It either goes down slowly, or up slowly.

Right now, it's going down slowly. And it may actually turn around and actually go up a little bit.

So the variation of the magnetic field. The movement of the magnetic pole. None of that is out of the ordinary. On the other hand, we can't rule out the possibility we're heading towards a magnetic reversal.

GLENN: So what does that mean? The North Pole becomes the South Pole?

HUGH: Yes. Well, what actually happens is the -- you can think of the earth's magnetic field as a far magnetic to the North and South Pole. That's called a dipole field. What happens is when the magnetic field begins to weaken, it transitions from being a dipole to being a multipole, where you have more than two poles. And that could last for a period of let's say a century or two or thousands of years. And it flips around, and it then becomes north and south. But what is north is now south. What is south is now north.

GLENN: So what does that do?

That whole shift. And let's use a thousand-year timetable. Because we don't know. Could it happen quickly? First of all.

HUGH: It could happen quickly. But that's rare. Usually it's a rather slow, gradual onset.

GLENN: Okay.

HUGH: Because they're watching us to see what's happening. But right now, we're not seeing anything that is really outstanding or out of the ordinary.

GLENN: Okay. So what happens as it starts. I assume they drift. And they're not connected, per se.

Because I think the South Pole is actually moving slower that night north.

As they go towards east and west, right?

HUGH: Well, right now, it's moved past the North Pole. They -- the -- the axis. It used to be in northern Canada. And over the past 150 years, it's moved a little bit past the North Pole. And it could switch and go East and West, instead of North and South. You know, physicists have been mapping this polar wandering of the magnetic pole for quite some time.

GLENN: Right.

HUGH: There's been over 100 reversals in the past history of the earth. And we do know that the magnetic field happens when that happens. It weakens by a factor of ten. But even a factor of ten weakening is not devastating the life.

We can't document a single extinction of the species during magnetic reversal. But it could impact health.

I mean, when you got a weaker magnetic field, you got more cosmic radiation coming in. It's like, if you live in Denver, you get exposed to more cosmic radiation. And your average life span gets lessened by three months.

GLENN: And is that because of all the progressive laws that are there?

HUGH: Well, it could be.

You do get a few more cosmic rays if you live at high elevation. But, hey, you have healthier lifestyles.

GLENN: Okay. So I know that we are -- they've had to adjust the GPS system.

And is that because of the poles shifting?

HUGH: Well, you do to have adjust the clocks because the earth is very slowly spinning down.

So, you know, every New Year's, physicists celebrate New Year's Day by adjusting all their atomic clocks by a few micro seconds. That's all it is, just a few micro seconds.

GLENN: So, but okay. But I've heard that it used to be -- anyway, the -- the end of the story is that they're now adjusting them every six months. Is that true?

HUGH: Yep. Well, that's true. And we're going to have a new set of GPS satellites, that will know where you are to within one or two centimeters. In which case, they will have to make even more frequent adjustments. So the adjustments are tiny.

GLENN: So when I was 25 years old, I read this great book. I have no idea if it's scientifically sound or not.

But it talked about a catastrophic polar shift, that the crust of the earth. That some of the continents may have moved.

And their theory was that Atlantis was Antarctica. Et cetera, et cetera.

What fascinated me. And I know you're a religious guy. When it comes to end times. It says, and the stars will fall.

The only way that I could think of, in God's, you know, magnificent math, to make it look like stars fall. Would be some sort of a shift in the continents. As if we would look up, we would be moving. But it would look like the stars are falling. Have you ever thought of that nonsense?

HUGH: Well, the continents move very rapidly. And so the continents move by a few centimeters per year. So I don't think that's what's happening.

The word there for star in Greek is (foreign language). And that could include meteors. So maybe the stars falling is referring to a meteor shower.

GLENN: Okay.

HUGH: Or it could be referring to the stars bending in light. Like if there's widespread forests and grass fires, that would cause all the stars to -- the sun, moon, stars dim by one-third. And that dimming would happen if you were surrounded by smoke.

GLENN: You know, we're -- we're talking to Dr. Hugh Ross. And the thing I don't like about this interview. Is he's so smart, he makes me look like an idiot. Which nobody does. I usually do that on my own. Hugh, so tell me all of the stuff on the aurora, the lights that we're looking at?

There's -- I've read a lot, and I don't know if this is true. That because of the magnetic field. And if we have a massive.

I think we had a -- I don't even know. An X5 solar flare yesterday.

It was not headed in our direction.

That that kind of stuff could blank out everything. It's like an EMP.

HUGH: Yeah. That could happen. 1859. There was a huge solar flare, that struck the earth.

And knocked out telegraph systems.

If that were to happen today, that could knock out most have the world's power grids. And that would mean you would be without electricity, not just for a few hours. But for weeks. Months. Maybe even years.

And that would be catastrophic. Because today, we're very dependent on electricity. Think of refrigeration. You've got no refrigeration. What does that do to your food supply?

GLENN: Right.

HUGH: And that kind of flare happens about once every one or 200 years.

But, hey, it happened in 1859. And I've written a book, making the point. It would be wise for us to protect our power grids.

GLENN: Amen.

HUGH: There is one that is protected. That's in Quebec.

And it got knocked out in 1989. By a flare like the one that happened just this past Friday. But that's the only protected power grid in the world.

GLENN: In the world?

HUGH: Yeah. They were close to the geomagnetic poles. So they took the most damage. It was $11 billion of damage.

And the -- but they -- they now have a surge protector on it. So it's protected. But if we were to get a flare like we had in 1859, the damage to the US alone, would be over $2 trillion. And you would have millions of people dying.

GLENN: Jeez. The -- the sun is reversing its poles as well. But that happens like every 11 years?

HUGH: Yes. We're at solar maximum right now. Every 11 years, you get more flaring activity, more solar activity. More sunspots. So, yeah. For the next year, we can expect to see more aurora displays like we had last Friday.

And hopefully, we won't get a flare hitting us like what happened in 1859.

GLENN: When does the sun start to go into solar minimum?

HUGH: It will start to go into solar minimum, in a couple of years.

It's an 11-year cycle. So for about a two-year period. You're at maximum. Then you head toward minimum.

And then we're at maximum again.

GLENN: And is there any correlation, in your mind, between the solar activity. And maximum and minimum. And global?

HUGH: No.

There's really no connection, between what's happening with the sun.

The sun is getting brighter. But it will be a few million years before you notice a difference.

GLENN: So even if the sun very active, it doesn't affect our temperatures or anything.

HUGH: It has no effect. What's happening here at earth, is what you have to watch. Not what's going on with the sun.

Is THIS the REAL Reason Biden Is Debating Trump BEFORE the DNC?

President Biden has challenged former President Donald Trump to not one, but TWO presidential debates in the most cringe-worthy way possible. Not only does Biden want to circumvent the Commission on Presidential Debates, which would have suggested 3 debates, but he wants to hold the first one much earlier than usual — BEFORE the Democratic National Convention. Glenn has a theory as to why this is: Is he giving the Democratic Party enough time to REPLACE him if his polls keep dropping? Glenn, Pat, and Stu also review some of Biden’s ridiculous rule proposals and Trump’s quick response to the proposed debates on CNN and ABC.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: So let's talk about the debates, just a bit, can we?

STU: Yeah. This is a pretty wild morning today. As they were basically starting with Joe Biden. Releasing a 13-second video, in which he attempted to challenge. I mean, this is the way they were promoting it.

GLENN: Wait. Wait. Wait. Thirteen seconds. And you're saying, he attempted to do something? It was 13 seconds.

STU: Yes. Well, 13 seconds. You would think that would be easy, but he had five jump cuts in the 13 seconds. He could not get the thing.

PAT: Unreal.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. Do we have it?

STU: We do have the video here. This is Joe Biden coming from earlier today.

VOICE: Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020. Since then, he hadn't shown up for a debate. Now he's acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day, pal. I'll even do it twice. So let's pick the dates, Donald. I hear you're free Wednesdays.

STU: Get it?

PAT: Yeah. Because a trial going on.

GLENN: What a jerk. When did the presidential debates become MMA?

STU: Well, I don't know. It's a good point. Both, at least MMA fighters look like they could walk to the stage. You know, watching Biden there, it's so bad to see the visuals, Glenn. And I know you don't have eyeballs at the moment. It's a disgrace. It looks like he is about to fall over. He can't get through these sentences. You could tell, he's done these multiple times. They're coming together, the best ones. It looks really bad.

GLENN: How do you know -- I mean this sincerely. Let me give him the benefit of the doubt. How do you know this isn't jump cuts because that's what social media does that makes it cool and viral?

STU: In theory, that would mean he got through this all at once. But you can see him starting, it's not very well-edited, let's put it that way. You can see him starting -- I don't know how to describe this to a non-TV production audience. But you can see it. If you look closely, you could see it.

GLENN: How is that possible, when you have Steven Spielberg now on the payroll, trying to -- trying to make him look good?

STU: They're definitely trying to simulate the typical TikTok thing, which they claim they want to ban, but continue to post on. That's a whole different situation.

But, I mean, it's being presented by the media as, wow. Joe Biden challenges Donald Trump, to two debates.

This is not what is happening at all. We, of course, have a presidential commission for debates, set up. That has been set up. And has been going on for a very long time.

They are planning on having three debates. So Joe Biden is challenging, quote, unquote, Donald Trump. Instead of three debates, two debates. And two debates outside of the commission.

Which he would be, I think, the first candidate since the commission was founded in 1987. To avoid the commission. He wants out of it.

GLENN: And he wants them in the summer, right?

STU: So he wants -- the first -- this long story, as we've been doing the show today, all of this has developed. But basically, you know, Biden posted this horrible video.

Trump immediately. He's like, yeah. Sure. I've been saying I want to do this the whole time. Fine. Let's do it.

In fact, I would like to do more of them. You're easy to win against was basically his response. Then Biden said, okay. Well, where are the dates?

How come you won't agree? Which, of course, Trump had already agreed. Then Biden said, hey. I just talked to CNN.

They want to do one. Which seemed like odd --

GLENN: Wow. That was --

STU: Oddly quick.

GLENN: Yes.

That's crazy.

STU: But I should also point out that Biden had a bunch of qualifiers here. One of his qualifiers here for this debate, he wanted to do it outside of this format because they make the rules.

The commission makes the rules. Biden wants to make the rules instead. One of the rules he wants is no audience. He wants it to be in a quiet room, so that I guess people can't cheer Donald Trump.

GLENN: Well, hang on just a second.

Let's, again, give him the benefit of the tout. Everywhere he speaks, there's no one in the room. He's on the campaign trail, there's nobody there.

STU: That's a fair point.

So it seemed like Biden's campaign, and this is going to sound shocking. But Biden's campaign and CNN may have had something arranged beforehand.

GLENN: No. No. No. That's so cynical.

STU: Yeah, it's so weird that they had a date and everything all set up five minutes later. But then long story short, back and forth, back and forth, Trump apparently agreed to this very quickly.

And they have now announced the date of the debate. Which get this, June 27th.

June 27th, which is in 43 days from today.

GLENN: You know why this is happening?

STU: I don't.

GLENN: A, you do it in the fall, it will be Michelle Obama.

And, B, the most important is it will be so far in the past.

STU: I think that's what it is.

GLENN: You don't want to have a bad impression of a debate, in -- you know, October. Or September.

You don't want to have that.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Everybody will forget this.

STU: This is old news. If you do one in June. It goes badly.

Of course, you can always bail on the second one, if the first one goes badly. The second one is supposedly scheduled or loosely scheduled for September. No date on that one yet, or where it's going to be. But Biden is saying he wants to have it on -- he's only allowing four networks to be considered. Which I think is CNN, ABC, CBS, and Univision, maybe.

GLENN: Of course.

PAT: All friendly to Biden and his agenda.

STU: He wants Donald Trump's mic cut off when he's speaking is reportedly one of the things. We don't have the full list, quite yet.

But think about the timing of this. Normally, these things happen in like October, you know. This one is in June, and it is multiple weeks before either of the conventions. The first -- the Republican convention happens on July -- the week of July 15th.

And this debate is happening June 27th. The Democratic Convention does not happen until the week of August 19th.

So way before the debates. Honestly, could easily be before Donald Trump even picks the vice presidential candidate. This debate could happen.

GLENN: Well, I mean, again, Joe has to get it in.

Before Michelle Obama steps.

STU: You're sticking to that one, huh?

You already --

GLENN: Not as much as I was.
