“15 Smoking Guns”: Is Mahmoud Khalil a THREAT to America?

The Left and Legacy Media insist that anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil, a green card holder who helped organize protests at Columbia University in the wake on the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel, is just “supporting Palestine.” But Capital Research Center Investigative Researcher Ryan Mauro argues that the evidence is clear: he poses an actual threat to Americans’ safety and should be deported. Ryan lists 15 “smoking guns” that Khalil and his activist group, Columbia University Apartheid Divest, support taking radical action against Western civilization. They seem to have an affinity for arson, his group called for a repeat of the Oct. 7 attack on US soil, and one group in the coalition even declared itself a literal part of Hamas.

GLENN: Ryan, welcome to the program, how are you? Right, hey, it's great to be with you.

GLENN: It's great to be with you. This is an amazing article, the 15 smoking guns, that show, this guy is clearly a terrorist threat.

I think I got to number three, and I'm reading this. Like, how is this even an argument? How this guy even here, still? Honestly, why isn't he even in jail, here in America? Can we go through these, one by one?

RYAN: Yeah, absolutely. And I think -- I would preface this by saying, honestly, we're thankful that he's deported, and we can all applaud that. But we shouldn't necessarily be impressed by that.
(laughter)

GLENN: It is a pretty low bar here.

RYAN: It is. And the fact that the Trump administration hasn't involved to any degree that I'm aware of. Those are the monitored groups. That's why I have this information available. They came out with this, and kind of got put on the defensive. And now Mohamed Kahlil, a group he's a part of that we will talk about, is more powerful than ever. All the pro-Hamas seditionist groups are fundraising off of this.

GLENN: This is crazy.

RYAN: And this is -- they didn't work with those to justify what they were doing. They just kind of did it.

GLENN: Okay. So let me take this point by point with you.

First point, Kahlil's group seeks to incite and carry out terrorism on US soil, including copying the October 7th atrocities.

RYAN: Yeah. So the group that he is a leader of, Columbia University apartheid. Which is actually a coalition of 100 student groups.

They post odd their social media base. Multiple times, that they were telling their comrades, involved in this little intifada. Primarily to the United States.

They talk about Israel. To, quote, look to the tactics of the Palestinian resistance, which were inspired action, and to rise like a flood. When they think flood, what they're doing, is they're referring to the October 7th attacks because Hamas refers to it as Operation Jerusalem Flood.

So that's how that would be interpreted. October 7th, good idea, for US soil.

GLENN: Number two, his group praised the October 7th attacks and Islamist-backed violent uprisings in Bangladesh as part of the global intifada against American imperialism.

JASON: Right. So they view themselves as part of a global intifada that is both Marxist, Communist, actually some anarchist elements, and Islamist. It's all one thing.

They view this as a part of a network.

GLENN: His group said, quote, we must genuinely threaten the state, I imagine that's America.

So much, we are killed, jailed, tortured, disappeared, and targeted in America. End quote.

RYAN: I think they -- the goal is doing that. To approve a sacrifice. They called it to achieve liberation in America. What they're doing, they and their comrades talk about, they refer to America as turtle islands. And basically, if a native -- what they're saying, just as they want to replace Israel with an Arab state of Palestinian, their goal is to replace the United States with a Native American state of Turtle Island.

GLENN: Give me a break. First of all, can we just -- I'm sorry to do this here. But let me --

RYAN: Go for it.

GLENN: Can we stop with the Native Americans were so much better than every other human being alive?

They were humans.

They were warring all the time, just like every other race and group of people. They were enslaving. If they didn't kill you in war, they enslaved you after war.

Please, can we stop!

Humans are humans. This -- this ridiculous -- well, these were Native Americans. And so they were perfect.

Shut up!

Grab a book. Read a little history. Okay. I'm sorry. Go ahead.

RYAN: No. Thank you, for saying that. Especially -- a lot of these people, they hate religion.

But they model the characterization of Native-Americans on Jesus Christ.

When you look at, they describe it as a gay man. And Native Americans have decided. Because they were pure. They were killed by capitalism. But anyway --

GLENN: So is there any -- I mean, are people that stupid, that they think, that a Marxist, communist, Islamist group is going to hand over America?

To the Native American nations?

Are they that -- I mean, really?

RYAN: I mean, watching the way the protesters talk on their personal social media pages.

A lot of this is performative.

GLENN: Yeah.

RYAN: And it's more about they feel scared for the future. For legitimate reasons. They feel there's no safety net. They feel no one is coming to help them.

So they drive to which ever group is talking about the most far sweeping change.

It's not what they're -- and then saying, oh, that's a great idea. Let me join that group. It's more, I'm scared, because my God, what am I going to do? I don't know if I can -- and they speak the language, and they bring them in.

GLENN: Number four, Kahlil's group called for attacking the military and the police, en masse. And dismantling the state infrastructure, assuming it's America.

RYAN: Yeah. And you can tell. Because on a lot of these posts, these are several together. So they do keep bringing them back to America.

They will cite the violence in Bangladesh, or what Hamas did as an example to follow.

So that particular post, after going over and praising the Bangladesh were attacking the police and military and surveillance state.

They have the obligation to beat them there. After saying, this is -- they escalated in this way.

GLENN: So if this isn't -- if this hasn't been bad enough for you to shut the pie hole. To say, this guy, he's just a freedom fighter. There's no hope for you. Let me go on. Number six. Kahlil's group seeks the eradication of Western civilization!

RYAN: Yeah. I mean, what more can you say? It's right there. And they talk about burning a lot of things down, too. You'll notice that patterns throughout these points. The example they gave is a lot of burning down prisons, burn down this, burn that.

They're a big fan of anarchists. Or arsonists. Arsonist terrorists.

GLENN: I have a former Prime Minister of England, Liz Trust coming in, today, for a show. And I can't wait to talk to her because I would like to hear her opinion on, what the hell is wrong with all of you people over in Europe, and in England.

How do they not see that they're going to be an Islamic state, if they don't turn this around, right now.

And it may be too late.

I mean, how -- how are we missing this in the West.

RYAN: I think, part of it, is that there's an ability to recognize the degree to which all of the extremes, all the seditionist elements are kind of coming together.

It seems like, in people's minds. They're in separate boxes.

How the Islamists -- sad, but it's not that high.

GLENN: Oh.

RYAN: They're not putting together the anarchists. The white nationalists are increasingly in there. You put it all together, and you rook at the polls that show how many people support them and you add them up, then you will see the totality of the problem.

GLENN: Gosh.

Number seven, Kahlil's group asked violent extremists abroad for help in organizing uprising.

Number eight, his group asked for help from militants in the global south, in achieving its goal of eradicating western civilization. And fighting the fascism, engrained in the American consciousness.

RYAN: There's the Antifa reference. See, it's all coming together.

The antifascism, Antifa reference.

GLENN: Kahlil's group, number nine, threatened to shut down Columbia University, unless it eliminated the police presence on campus and severed all ties to the New York Police Department.

Which if they did that, just in Columbia, that accomplishes so many of the other goals.

RYAN: Yeah. Right. And just it's amazing that the schools even tolerate -- even the threat. How are you led to this on campus, at all.

GLENN: Kahlil's group really likes to see things set on fire. I love that one. Explain.

RYAN: Yeah. That's what I was alluding to before, where they're giving specific examples of what was going on in Bangladesh, that should be replicated. And how they set fire to the state broadcasting networks headquarters. And they set fire to the prison. They set fire to the government offices. Set fire to the state vehicle.

Then there was an arsonist terrorist in California who tried to firebomb a federal building, he firebombed a cop car.

Lit a building on fire. Looted a building. On college campuses. And that's all fine and dandy. They said, that's a wonderful thing, and everyone cheers.

GLENN: Number 11, Kahlil's group had terrorists teach Columbia students.

RYAN: Yeah, so he put together a virtual event. That future to leaders of this group. That anyone that knows this stuff. Thirty seconds, you would know this is a front. For the popular front for the deliberation of Palestine, which is like the Marxist counterpart to Hamas. They work together, and they're both backed by Iran.

To -- and there's some academic exercise. We heard the viewpoint, anything that was challenged. No, just come in, and tell the students what reality is. And that's what they did. And they taught the students that hijacking, that was done by the terrorists, are an inspiring thing.

GLENN: Number 12, Columbia protesters were told to riot by a Chinese communist party entity. And they complied hours later.

RYAN: Yeah. Yeah. Just the -- all you can do is laugh at it. It's so absurd in some cases. So over 100 protesters from Columbia University, went to the headquarters of people's forum, which we know from the Capitol Research Center profile on them, is heavily, if not completely funded by the Chinese Communist Party. Like the leader is over there in China and in Asia. And this is all known and proven.

And so they said, you know what you guys should do? You should riot. And then a few hours later, Kahlil's group goes and they riot. So they're incited by the Chinese Communist Party in that instance.

GLENN: Again, we're talking about a guy, Columbia University student that is -- that is really behind a lot of the stuff, that was happening in Columbia University. All of this really, you know, Jew hatred. Israel hatred stuff.

And the people on the left are going, you can't do that. How dare you do that. Well, yeah. You're -- you're either part of the problem, or you just are ill-informed or uninformed.

You're living in a self-contained box of ignorance. Where there's three more left. And I will get Ryan to comment on those in just a second. First, let me are just take 60 seconds to break and tell you. I've watched the real estate market spin out of control. Right itself. And then spin out of control again. Dozens of times. Over and over and over again.

And it's a minefield to say the least. And any real estate agent that can navigate it halfway well is a successful one.

GLENN: We're talking to Ryan Mauro. You can follow him on X, @RyanMauro.

His website is Ryan Mauro. That's spelled M-A-U-R-O. RyanMauro.com.

And we're down to the last couple of points that you're making in this great op-ed on -- on the Blaze News and Blaze.com.

Let's see. We have 13. Kahlil's Group -- their stated goal is to topple all institutions that benefit from colonial, racial capitalism, and dismantle the state.


JASON: Yeah, so it's an anti-government group, just like the left likes to talk about, the crazy right-wing militia type forces. But then it happens. The Islamist Marxist friendly group, saying the same thing, and civil rights icon.

GLENN: Kahlil's group boasts about vandalism of campus property.

RYAN: Yeah, and I included that just to show people that the same people that do that type of thing, you can't just dismiss it. Like, it's all part of the same thing. So there's broader implications. It's not just about the spray paint.

GLENN: The last one. Number 15, a large part of Kahlil's coalition declared itself a literal part of Hamas. Oh, my gosh.

RYAN: Yeah, so the Students for Justice in Palestine, which is biggest group behind all of these protests, and, by the way, I already spoke to you. I completed by study for Capital Research Center. Where I found over 150 pro-terrorism groups, were behind the protests.

Literally, 150.

So this group is one of them.

And so Kahlil's group is a coalition, and probably the biggest group within his coalition is sue for justice in Palestine, which is nationwide. Which is the biggest group involved in all of this stuff. It's kind of widely known that they celebrate the October 7th attacks, because people were shocked. But people were so shocked, they didn't read the rest of the statement that they put out.

Because the rest of the statement, they actually say -- let me clarify something. The resistance -- we're not saying that we're in solidarity with them. We are saying, we are part of them.

GLENN: Jeez.

JASON: They cleared themselves to be part of a designated terrorist organization, Hamas and you just say the other groups that are involved in October 7th.

They're part of all those groups that illegally -- illegal to be a part of. And here's the kicker that I just recently found out.

Do you know who else is a member of Kahlil's group?

GLENN: Satan.

JASON: Ilhan Omar's daughter.

GLENN: You have to be kidding me.

JASON: She was arrested for her activism with this group. She tweeted that she is an organizer with Kahlil's group, Columbia University Apartheid Divest, and the Students for Justice in Palestine chapter at Columbia.

So think of it this way. Students for Justice in Palestine, since they are a part of Hamas, and then Ilhan Omar's daughter is a part of Students for Justice in Palestine, what does that say about it?

GLENN: What does it say about Ilhan Omar?

JASON: Right.

GLENN: So are these -- because the language is so Marxist. It's strangely almost disarming, instead of it being Allahu Akbar. Which -- what is his center? Marxism? Revolution? Or crazy Islamist?

RYAN: They come all insane. Because I monitored all these extremists, all these divisionists. I call them the seditionist movement. But I bring them together. From the anarchist to the Communist to the Islamist to the white nationalist.

And I can't tell the difference in -- in the -- between them.

They switch out the nouns. But it's all the things. Revolution. Discovering along ethnic, racial, political lines. US isn't a legitimate state.

It's more this guy is aligned with the PFL, the Popular Front Liberation of Palestine, which is backed by Iran. But it's kind of like -- it worked in tandem with Hamas, or as close as they could be. But they're Communists.

GLENN: Unbelievable. I can't thank you enough for everything that you do. I mean, you are fighting the good fight. And doing all the heavy lifting on it, and I really appreciate it.

EXPOSED: Why Democrats are DESPERATE to impeach Trump over Iran!

Some Democrats are now calling for President Trump’s impeachment because he bombed Iran without congressional approval. But were Trump’s actions legal? Former State Department Special Advisor for Iran, Gabriel Noronha, joins Glenn Beck to explain the truth about the strike. Plus, he details what Iran might have had concerning nuclear weapons.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Gabriel, welcome to the program, Polaris National Security President, former State Department special adviser for Iran.

Did the -- did the president need to have congressional permission before striking Iran over the weekend?

GABRIEL: No. He remembers.

It would have been nice to have the strength of the president's hand, when he does have a congressional authorization for the military force. But the Constitution grants him the powers as commander-in-chief, to take all necessary actions, especially in a limited fashion like he just did.

There are no forces being entered into. There's a conflict. There's no boots on the ground.

This isn't us invading Iraq and toppling the government. This is a limited taking out their nuclear program.

And so he's under full legal authorization. The Constitution grants him to do this.

GLENN: And they -- they have never said anything about ISIS when he went after ISIS and shoved them down. Right?

I mean, we didn't hear this argument.

Why, all of a sudden, is this one so different than all of the limited strikes we have seen from all of the presidents recently?


GABRIEL: You know, you go back to Libya, 2011.

You go back to ISIS, 2014, 2015. Same scenario.

They -- actually, in those cases, those were even more intense military conflicts that we were involved in. And Democrats didn't say anything.
Republicans -- a few Republicans said a few things. But the reason here, is because they want to find something to attack president Trump for it. But there's nothing on the policy. Because this went so well. So they're going after the legal crush, just because they don't have anything else.

Here's another thing. I was in Congress for four years. There were votes by tells me, where they said, we want to strip the president of the ability to attack Iran.

And they introduced amendment after amendment after amendment. And they all failed. Not a single one passed. I saw probably a dozen of these attacks over my years there. All failed.

Either in the markup process on the House floor, the Senate floor, Congress. So Congress had the opportunity to stop this if they wanted, and they have always said, no.

We want the president to have the ability to strike Iran, when it's necessary.

GLENN: And, you know, I have to tell you, the world has changed. It's not like I have to send a ship to go sailing across the ocean anymore. Within 36 hours, we can leave, you know, our base here in America.

Be over in Iran. Drop bombs. And be back at home. You know, in time for dinner the next day.
I mean, it is -- it is very, very different.

And I think it's only logical to say, the president should have a limited ability to -- not declare war. But to respond, or to do a limited strike, if it is in the national interests.

And then, if it -- if it turns into something else. You know, Congress can reprimand him if they want.

Or isn't there something in the Constitution, that says, 30 days, or 60 days, they can shut off all the money.

If he hasn't declared war or gone to Congress, they can just say, we're shutting off all he money. So that's not accurate in this particular case.

Because you would have to have ongoing things. But a president just can't start a war. Congress can't. Correct?

GABRIEL: You're right. So back to 1973, at the height of the Vietnam War, Congress had been concerned that a lot of that had been unauthorized. So they passed what was called a War Powers Resolution. That gave two things.

First, it said, within 48 hours of military enforcement entering a conflict, the president needs to come to Congress and basically tell them, look, legal authorization was used.

And so I expect Trump will do that today.

There will be a legal report filed.

The next thing is that, Congress said, they have 60 days, to pass an authorization for force.

Or if it doesn't happen, then the president has to withdraw the forces.

But here's the thing, the Supreme Court has never ruled that resolution constitutional. And every single president since 1973. Democrat and Republicans.

Have all asserted that is an unconstitutional resolution that was passed in the lay.

So Congress has the option. If Congress wants, they have the power of the purse.

At my point, they can defund any war. They can defund the Pentagon, if they wanted to.

And they can force the President to bring (inaudible), and Congress has never done so. Because Congress basically has passed the buck to the President.

GLENN: Right.

The -- the idea that the president has to go to the gang of eight. And alert them, before anything happens.

Does that mean before the decision is made, or right after the decision is made?

I mean, I know he went to, you know, the leaders of Congress. Just minutes before the bombing started.

And, quite honestly, if I were the president, I would have done exactly the same thing.

I can't trust members of Congress. Look at what they're doing.

These members of Congress, they're so radicalized. They're marching in the streets. To the people burning our cities down.

I don't know what I would have done. Other than exactly what Donald Trump did.

Did he violate any laws or anything with how he handled himself, with the members of Congress?

The leadership.

GABRIEL: No, he didn't. So the gang of eight for folks who don't know is the Democrat and Republican, Senate majority leaders, minority leaders. House leaders. And the leaders up in the Intelligence communities.

Now, there's a tradition, that sort of the big secrets get briefed to them, things like Chinese espionage, Russian nuclear war, but there's not any legal requirement on this. And I'll tell you, when president Obama killed Osama Bin Laden.

There wasn't a notification to Congress on that either.

GLENN: Didn't hear anything about that.

GABRIEL: It's more of a tradition of deference to Congress. If you want to tell them, special things, you can.

But there's no legal requirement.

It's really just the way sort of things are often done for big intelligence things.

This is a military operation, more than an intelligence operation.

So I don't even think they're supplies in this case

GLENN: So let me ask you about something like people like Steve Bannon are saying right now.

They suggested that our Intel was Deep State. War informed by Mossad.

What Intel did you receive during the first Trump administration, that would leave you to believe that this is a sincere threat to American interests, not just a -- a justification to help Israel?

GABRIEL: You know, a lot of it, you don't even have to get the intelligence reports from.

It's the fact that they promised at the highest levels of leadership, they promised to wipe Israel off the map. They promised to destroy America.

So they have pensions there.

In terms of capability, what we saw, they were retaining the secret archive of everything needed to build a nuclear weapon.

And they never declared that during Obama's Iran Deal. And so even in Obama's Iran deal, they were breaking that from day one, about having the secret archive.

And then they had a bunch of nuclear scientists working on weaponization activities.

On the kinds of things that you need to actually physically assemble warheads and make something explode. And so all of that has been public knowledge for years. And so with -- you know, with respect to -- our Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard. I think it's ridiculous that any country would get to the 99-yard line of getting nuclear weapons.

But say that they don't intend at some point to cross into the touch down zone that defied logic, frankly.

GLENN: Correct.

You know, I'm hearing from both sides, that Trump was negotiating. I think trying to negotiate.
And the other side, Iran says, they were never serious. In fact, we would show up. And then they would never show up.

Can you give me any insight on what the negotiations were actually like, prior to the strikes, and do you think things are different now.

And if so, how?

GABRIEL: I think President Trump was genuinely interested in solving this the diplomatic way.

I will tell you, he gave them very generous terms. He gave them a lot of what they had asked for.

He came back a long ways from his position of 2018 to 2020. Where he had those 12 demands on Iraq.

Here he only had three or four things that were really essential.

But what the Iranians did. And they have always done this.

They tried to negotiate every syllable point.

They tried to get more and more and more.

Every time they would agree to something, they would come back and renege on it. This wasn't the behavior of someone that wants to solve this. This is a behavior someone that wanted to delay for time, and wanted to try to extract every concession. Not the behavior of someone that genuinely wanted to live in peace with the United States and Israel.

GLENN: I am so impressed with the team around Donald Trump.

Especially with Marco Rubio. I didn't know what to expect from Marco Rubio.

As a secretary of state. I think he's been just outstanding. What had you had his message be to Iran now?

GABRIEL: You know, I think it would be this. You guys have the option to respond logically, or respond emotionally.

The logical path would be to say, look, all our air defenses are gone. Our ballistic missiles are mostly gone. Our nuclear program is gone.

It's time to negotiate the terms of surrender, in a way that gives us sanity. In a way that allows our government to survive.

And to save our people from more destruction and economic misery. That would be the logical step.

And the emotional step is: We're going to go, attack American bases, extract revenge.

And I think what Secretary Rubio should do, is lay out really clearly for Iranian leaders the consequences of that emotional path.

And say, if you do this, you will have your leadership wiped out. You will see the rest of your ballistic missile program wiped out. And you won't get good terms of negotiation.

So if you can box in Iran's leaders, give them a good off ramp, saying, hey. Here's a realistic path that you can take to preserve your interests. And to maintain peace.

But don't take that hard path.

GLENN: Okay. So Rick Grenell said, he spoke to somebody. An Iranian source on the ground.

Who said, things on the ground are really, really bad. They're locking everybody up in their house.

You know, it's marshal law.

They've already rounded up a group of religious dissidents that they say were spies for Israel.

But executed like 100 of them over the weekend.

They've arrested hundreds -- hundreds more. The -- I can't remember the name of the religious police.

It's Iran. Can't remember. Maybe you know.

GABRIEL: That's probably the besiege. Probably the besiege.

GLENN: Yeah. Yes. Exactly right.

And they are on the streets, pretty mercilessly right now, checking everybody's phone, their car. I mean, it's very dangerous.

Do you think there's a chance, that the people can rise up and why hasn't the president encouraged them to rise up yet?

GABRIEL: You know, I think the Iranian people want to get rid of this regime.

But I will tell you, hearing some Iranians myself, I hear, they're pretty afraid for themselves.

They are having to evacuate their teams. They're trying to find a shelter. They don't know what what's going to happen. And so they probably won't take to the streets. And go over to the government right now.

But a month from now, this war is over. That's really the time where they could see their whole leadership crippled. And say, we want a new future.

And one of the things that is really good right now, which is really smart. Is they are destroying the internal government bureaucracy that is used to depressed the Iranians. You know, the gestapo stations, for lack of a better term. All the units which torture people. Arrest people. Murder people. Their high-tech surveillance.

They're showing all these institutions, which used to be the ones that masked the Iranian people. And so they're paving the way, that if the Iranians decide to take to the streets down the road, that they will be empowered. They will be able to gain momentum.

And that they would be actually successful in those efforts to overthrow the regime. Go ahead.

GLENN: Go ahead. No, no, no. Please, go ahead.

GABRIEL: I saw President Trump, I think yesterday, he sort of provided an opening for the regime change.

And he started saying, look, if the government will not do the smart thing, the Iranian people should take control of their own future. And change the regime themselves. So that's the first time we've seen that from President Trump in the administration reviews. Sort of encourage the Iranian people, to overthrow this regime. I think that's a smart thing to do.

I don't think we can get a full resolution, to the nuclear threat, while this regime is in power.

GLENN: Right.

Polaris National Security president, Gabriel Noronha is with us now.

Gabriel, I have hope, that this could be a Poland situation, if the people would rise up and the regime is toppled.

But we have not seen that anywhere else in the Middle East.

Is it possible. Is it probable that the Iranian people would choose to go away, and become more, what they were in the 1970s?

GABRIEL: It is possible, yes.

I would probably only give it a 35 percent chance. Here's why, I put it that low.

It's the Iranian leaders, unlike like leaders in Poland, unlike even Gorbachev, are willing to use as much military force as necessary, to kill those protesters, and stay in power.

And that makes it really tough for them.

What you don't have in Iran, is you don't have a military group, that has power, that has guns.

That is able to overthrow the regime. The regime would basically have to collapse under its own weight.

Under its own corruption. And under its own weakness.

GLENN: And if it did.

GABRIEL: But you won't have it removed.

GLENN: If it did collapse, would it be taken over by other extremists?

Or is there at least an even shot, that the people could have it?

GABRIEL: You know, there's a good shot that the people would have it.

There's a large number of Iranians, who all they really want is a secular government that is at peace with its neighbors.

That doesn't pursue a nuclear weapon.

That allows the Iranian people to thrive, build a future for themselves. That's what I hope happens.

It's a small possibility. But it's what we can work for and hope for.

GLENN: And pray for.

Great, Gabriel. Thank you so much.

Thanks for your service to the nation, and thanks for the update. Appreciate it.

HORROR at home: Why the FBI can no longer track Iran’s terrorists

“We’ve seen this movie before,” Glenn Beck warns after President Trump bombed Iran. The last time Islamists attacked America, the country united to destroy them. So, Iran may want to think twice before retaliating. But will Iran care about the consequences? Glenn explains the dark truth about Iran: this isn’t a “Muslim” nation. It’s an evil, fascist regime.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: All righty. We've seen this movie before.
And, you know, this weekend, we've struck without any fanfare, just really clarity, and resolve. We struck, at the heart of Iran's nuclear facilities.
And I want to speak really plainly here.

Iran is not just a rogue state. We have a rogue state in North Korea, and it's bad.

What Iran is, is the nerve center of Islamic terror. They give 700 million dollars a year, to Hezbollah. $100 million to Hamas. That's almost as much money I think as we give to Hamas.

They drain militias from Gaza to Venezuela. Did you know that Hamas was in Venezuela? Yeah. Why are they trending in Venezuela?

I think you know the answer to that. The IRGC's -- the Kuds force, personally loyal to the Ayatollah Khomeini.

They run global assassination plots. They have tentacles across the Middle East, Europe, and now here. They plotted the demise and the assassination of our president, President Trump.
I thought it was very restrained of him, not to target their leader. Seeing that their leader targeted him just last summer.

And while we're sitting here and we're arguing about pronouns, and all of the ridiculous things that we are arguing about, they are busy building drone factories in Syria. And terror tunnels under Gaza. And sleeper cells in the West.

We have so many sleeper cells because of Joe Biden, that our FBI cannot keep up. I have heard. I don't know if this is true.

But I have heard this weekend, that we can't keep up with the terror cells that we have here in America.

It is so out of control, that we no longer have time to really track down and stop the terror cells outside of America. So what happened this weekend, is we opened a gate.

But I want you to understand, in 2023 alone, the US Border Patrol caught over 8,000 special interest aliens, people from nations linked to terror.

And the FBI just lost track of them!

Now, they are arresting them in record numbers, from what I understand.

I hope that that is true. And I hope we can catch them before anything happens. But these are not nameless nobodies. They are trained. They are embedded.

And they are waiting! Not just here in America. But all over the world. And when America pushes back, what happened? The media immediately screams Islamophobia. Why?

Because that's a made up thing in the first place. I think CAIR made that up. Islamophobia.

I'm not afraid of Islam. I'm afraid of those who want to impose the Koran and the hadith on everyone, by force.

Now, you should have a phobia against that. You should be phobic against that. Let me say this as clearly as I can. This is not about Muslims. This is about Islamists.

There is a difference. A Muslim, like a Catholic. Practices a faith.

And an Islamist imposes a regime. And that is happening here in the United States. A Muslim may pray, forgive, assimilate. But an Islamist believes you must bow or die.

That's what I'm against. And I think every American should be that way as well.

Oh, no. But we're just two Islamophobia. We're just too filled with these -- with our hatred of anything that is different.

Well, do you remember back in the day, when we were going after a guy named Osama Bin Laden? And at the same time, we elected a guy named Barack Hussein Obama. Obama. Osama. Hussein. Saddam Hussein.

I mean, it doesn't seem like. It seems like, we can chew gum and walk at the same time.

Seems like we can differentiate between the two. That's not bigotry.

It's grace. Because that's who we are.

We are a nation, that at times, is bigoted.

And at other times. Has grace.

But grace can very easily become suicide.

So let me talk to you here about some things that Islamism brings in plain sight.

Okay?

In Iran, girls are married as young as nine. Are you for that?

Have you seen any of the videos of the young girls, that are married off at nine years old?

And how they leave with their 50-year-old husbands? In 2024, last year, a bill was advanced in their parliament to codify it, again. Just to make sure everybody is okay with that. Let's codify it again. In Afghanistan, 53 percent of the women were married before 18. 21 percent of the women are married before 15!

Honor killings.

Another super, duper classic from the people who bring you Islamists.

They claim 5,000 girls and women every year. Are burned, strangled, or stoned to death, by their own family.

In Paris, 77 percent of the solved rape cases in 2023 involved foreign-born suspects.

Why?

Because the hadith says, it's okay, as long as they're an infidel. You can do whatever you want to them.

In Sweden, over 58 percent of the convicted rapists were immigrants.

In Germany, asylum seekers made up less than 2 percent of the population, but have 8.5 percent of the crime suspects. This is not immigration, that we're dealing with. This is ideological importation.

If you're a Muslim and you're Westernized, you fled tyranny. Because you know this story better than I do.

Because when Islamists take power, they kill you first.

They don't come after me first. They kill you first.

Because you have betrayed Islam, according to their twisted ideology.

Yet, you still pray five times a day.

They stone your daughters. They throw your homosexual son a rooftop. They burn the apostates like you.

They behead converts. They erase liberty. They erase women.

They erase all dissent. This is not a faith!

This is fascism, in a turbine.

What we're going up against in the world, is not a faith.

If anything, if I want to put it in the category of faith, when you're talking about Islamists. And Islamism. It is evil.

It is the faith of the Antichrist. I'm convinced of it.

Now, that doesn't mean Muslims. That means, those who want the regime to impose this.

And we in the West, America in particular, we are asleep at the wheel.

Look at Europe. But here, in America, let's just stick to America for a second.

Our cities are being overrun with antisemitic mobs, calling for an intifada.

That means, basically, revolution, and a killing of anybody who disagrees with them.

Our campuses echo chants from the river to the sea. Which means, wipe out all Jews.

That's what that means, you dopes.

Our government, overwhelmed, can no longer chase Islamic terrorists. Outside of our borders. Because they're inside of our borders now.

But let me tell you -- let me make a warning, to both the Islamists and honestly, to ourselves.

You want to see America unite again, let one of these mobs or several of these sleeper cells cross the wrong line.

It's one thing to march with the flag and chant death to America. It's another to go into our malls, into our homes, into our schools, into our places of worship, and just start killing people.

We're divided. Uh-huh. But right now, there's at least 100 million Americans who know what's at stake.

They're wide awake. You start doing this, and Americans aren't going to follow. Americans are going to stand up against you.

Not all. We have our crazies here too. And it's -- what we're standing up for is not just our nation. It's our civilization.

It's our daughters. And their right to live free and unveiled.

It's the ability to walk the streets without being told, we've provoked our own assault.

And let me tell you, I think America is done importing abuse and calling it tolerance.

We're done.

I, for one, will always welcome those who love liberty, and want to support and live under the light of liberty.

But it's time for us to stop bowing to those who wish to destroy that liberty. And to the Islamists that are here, you might think that we are weak, you might think that we are distracted, but I believe you are terribly wrong.

See, we've seen this movie before. And it had a different ending.

It went into softness and tolerance, and everything else.

We didn't know how to define our enemy back then. We just thought, hmm. Muslims.

Trouble on planes.

At least, that's the way we were painted.

But most of us didn't know anything about the Middle East or Islam, or anything else.

And we couldn't believe that, you know, they could come over here, and do any more than just the hijacking of planes.

We never imagined 25 years ago, what could happen to a place like Europe, or our own streets?

We never, ever imagined at the time, that we could see hundreds, if not thousands of people, in the streets, fighting and setting fires for communism. And Islamism.

I was called crazy for saying that this would happen in 2008, '9, '11, '12. And here it is.

We've seen this movie before. But I promise you, we've written a new ending.

And this is a warning not just for Islamists, but also for all of us.

We have got to guard our liberty.

Because they start causing trouble on the streets.

I mean, real trouble.

You start to have a Beslan here and there.

We will go fascistic overnight.

And we can never become the thing that we despise. Fight it. Those things we despite.

We have to be very, very careful. But it starts first, with moral clarity.

Do you believe it's okay for a 9-year-old to be married off in an arranged marriage?

I don't.

I think it's pretty career.

Do you believe it's okay to stone a woman for adultery? But the guy gets away. Do you believe it's okay to stone anybody to death?

Do you believe it's okay to behead infidels, or behead anyone who disagrees with you?

You don't have to be a member of Islam. You can be a communist. Is it okay to line you up against the wall and shoot you, because you don't believe in communism.

These ideologies have an awful lot in common. And it's all on the dark side and death.

The time to think things through, is right now!

Most people don't want to even look at this. Most people don't want to think this could happen.

But I urge you to look at what's happening in Europe.

I don't know if we're going to do it this week or next week. But I hope the Wednesday night special, either this week or next week -- I hope it's this week, if we have time -- is to show you the footage that is coming out of these mass demonstrations, and the craziness that is happening over in Europe.

You need to see it. I mean, I -- I wrote out a show last night. I will present it to the producers today, to see if we can pull it off this week. But I don't want to say very much.

I just want to show you what's happening all around the world.

Because it's very clear. We've been invaded. And in our tolerance, we are about to lose the Western civilization. So, Iran, you should be put on notice.

You start unleashing these people, on our streets, you start coming in here, and you start doing terror.

What was that, Toby Keith? Will put a boot up your ass.

That kind of American will show up again, in righteous indignation, and we will put a boot up your ass. Because there's at least 100 million of us, that are not going to live under that kind of tyranny, ever.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

If a Nuclear Missile is Launched... THIS is What the President Does

If an ICBM containing a nuclear weapon is launched at the United States, the President would only have approximately 6 minutes to act prior to impact. In the event of this horrific scenario becoming a reality, what does the President do in that time? Author and nuclear expert Annie Jacobsen joins Glenn Beck to break down this situation and how it would actually play out behind the scenes.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett ALMOST gets something right

Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett has declared a “mental health crisis” in America because of Donald Trump. Well, she’s ALMOST right, Glenn Beck explains. But Trump supporters aren’t the cause of the crisis… Has she seen what just happened at the Oregon State Capitol?!

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: I don't know what planned for this weekend, but I'll be out protesting. They arrested 75, or sorry. Seventy-six illegals, including Tren de Aragua members in Fort Worth. And I've got to tell you. I'm a little upset about it.

I was just -- so what. They're in a gang!

I mean, our gang. Did you ever watch that, with the little hanky? What's the difference? So here's cut four. This is from Fort Worth.

VOICE: Areas of Fort Worth with high crime rates were targeted in a two-month initiative called Operation Showdown.

Seventy-six people were arrested on firearm and drug crimes.

VOICE: Many of the individuals arrested in this operation are convicted, violent felons. Others are in our country illegally, and have suspected ties to the Venezuelan trans national criminal organization, Tren de Aragua, also known as TDA.

GLENN: Yeah. Known as TDA for people who can't pronounce it. Anyway, I -- you know, why are they just persecuting these poor people that are just coming in for him?

And they're bringing their gang. Because they're like, hey. I just want to melt into the society.

You know, I will bring the best from my country, TDA.

And I will melt into this one. And then I might kill some people, et cetera, et cetera. But I don't understand.

STU: This is where Trump got it wrong.

I mean, he was saying that they're sending us their worst. These are their best criminals. They're fantastic at it.

They're really, really good gang members.
And I'm glad they're here.

GLENN: Yeah. Me too. Me too.

Now, let me take to you Oregon, to the Capitol, where the House of Representatives, on the floor of the House of Representatives, in the Oregon Capitol, did a circus drag show. Here it is. Cut five.
(music)

STU: What the hell is this?
(music)
(laughter)

GLENN: What are you talking about? It's two guys dressed as women. You know, one without a shirt on apparently, and just dancing with blue hair.

STU: What the hell is happening? At the Oregon Capitol in front of the House of Representatives. It's like that typical C-SPAN segment with the ridiculous drag show going on.

And they're not doing anything, except canceling to seemingly prerecorded music.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: Wow.

What a skill that is. What a skill.

GLENN: What I love is just all the guys that are just sitting there. I mean, look at that.

They're just sitting there. Most of them aren't even looking.

They're sitting in their seats at the Capitol.

Okay. Mr. Speaker!

Can we get back to some business here?

STU: They're all in that weird.

I remember when Oprah had a show. And there would be awe musical performer. And they would feel the need to show Oprah dancing around.

And it's super awkward.

That's all their not what you do, when you're sitting individually in a seat.

She is trying to act like she's into it.

She never knew the word.

That's kind of what it looks like to people.

They're sitting there, trying to decide what the appropriate reaction is to this.

By the way, the answer is to walk out. That's a good one.

GLENN: Yeah. That's a good one.

You get up and you walk out.

So you are living in Oregon.

You might walk out and be stoned to death.

Probably should have walked out on that one.

I just -- I wonder, you know. Oregon.

What?

What are your electing officials doing? If you want to go to a drag show, that's fine.

But why in the middle of the workday?

In the state House of Representatives.

I -- was this a lead-up to I like silky blue hair votes.

Or what?

What is this?

STU: Hmm. It's a great question.

Where -- where do you think we are?

I was talking to Steve Deace yesterday, on your show.

And he -- we were talking about where are we in this situation with the -- the woke trans, you know, LGBTQQIA2+ thing.

Are we -- is it still advancing, the way that it was before? Have we turned it back?

Are we, you know, at a standoff?

Where do you think we are?

GLENN: I think we're -- I think we're turning it back. And it's going to implode on itself very soon.

STU: That's pretty optimistic.

GLENN: Listen to this.

Under a new leader, Ken Martin the Democratic National Committee has been plagued by infighting and a drop in donation, raising alarms from Democrats as they try to win back power.

Just moments into the tenure of the new party leader, Kevin Martin, the Democratic National Committee is finding that the situation has grown so bleak, that top officials have discussed whether they might need to borrow money this year, whether to keep paying bills. Why do you think that's happening?

Why do you think that's happening?

I will tell you, why that's happening.

The same reason why it's happening. New York City Pride parade loses corporate sponsors. Why? Why?

You can blame it on the economy, but that's not what's happening.

You have this. Jasmine Crockett, yesterday. We have a mental health crisis in this country. Because everybody, no matter how you affiliate yourself should be against a Donald Trump.

Wait. Wait.

That's the mental health problem?

STU: Right. I was going to say --

GLENN: Can I show you the footage again in the statehouse?

STU: I was going to say, the fact that Jasmine Crockett got elected shows, she is correct, we have a mental health problem in this country. Just to back you up on this, on the New York Times as well. We've reached rainbow capitalism's end.

GLENN: Yep.

STU: And it's from like -- you know, you know, LGBTQIA activist.

Who talks about how all these parades are losing money.

They're hundreds of dollars in the hole. Because these companies are not coming out and supporting them.

They say -- this is interesting. Bark Box. You know Bark Box?

GLENN: No. I'm proud to say no.

STU: It's like a subscription box where they send your dogs treats and toys every month.

GLENN: No, let's just say no.

STU: Just so you know, if you have a wife and a pet, you're probably subscribed to it. They sent an internal message in early June, where they said, quote, we have made the decision to pause all paid ads and life cycle marketing pushes for the Pride kit available immediately.

We need to -- excuse me. Effectively immediately.

We need to acknowledge that the current climate makes this promotion feel like a political statement, than a universally joyful moment for all dog people.

Now, I don't know if dog people means the people who own dogs. Or people who identify as dogs. I could honestly go the other way on that one.

GLENN: Rough call. Rough call.

STU: It's interesting, a lot of this is -- these are just capitalist decisions, right?

They're not decisions saying, hey. We agree that, you know, mutilating your child is a bad idea.
It's just capitalism kind of people saying, wait a minute.

They don't believe that. So we don't want to push it. We don't want to be known as the dog treat company, that, you know, stands for pride.

We just want to be the dog treat company that everybody likes.

GLENN: What a surprise.

STU: I think that's a good move.

It's not necessarily a lasting trend though.

GLENN: No.

STU: Because it reverses itself --

GLENN: You're always going to have people that just go where the -- where the popular movement is, where they can make a buck. Okay.

You will always have that. You know, but I hope that some people have learned their lesson. That, you know, stop it. But here's the real problem. The real problem is that you're not having a massive movement.

They would be -- they would be -- the coffers would be empty. If it wasn't for government graft. And insider, you know, trading, if you will.

Our tax dollars for their power.

The -- the sad thing is, that this pathetic was made during Occupy Wall Street. I'm absolutely convinced of it.

Occupy Wall Street. It just didn't disappear or fade out.

Wait. A year after Occupy Wall Street, the leader of Occupy Wall Street is an honored guest at the WEF, which is nothing, but politicians and giant corporations?

And he's like, you know, we found out, we're real allies.

It happened because all of these fringe groups, that were cobbling together, their power. With Occupy Wall Street.

All of the big corporations, all of the big businesses.

All of Wall Street.

They all got together and said, you know what, leave us alone.

We'll help fund your crazy things we really believe in. We'll fund all of these things. Just leave us alone!
And it was right after Occupy Wall Street. That all of these corporations, that were just being pounded in the streets, all of a sudden, they're good guys. To all the Occupy Wall Street.

To all the leftists. They're all fine with those guys then. And what do we see? We see them just pour money in the coffers of all of these left-wing groups. BLM.

Everybody did it. That's all that was. You know, but the American people see that. But they also see crazy things.

Wednesday, Maxwell Frost, he's a Florida Congressman. He suggested granting citizenship to every illegal alien in the country, because if Republicans don't want illegal aliens in America, the fix is simple. We just make them legal.

Okay. We're an immigrant-filled community. We're a community filled with people.

And, yes, people are going to have different statuses. And I want my Republican colleagues that say, I don't want any undocumented people in this country.

I actually agree with you.

So let's document everybody. That's how we fix this problem.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Really, honestly, the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Is that in line with the American people? No especially when New York City. I'm sorry. New York. US attorney in this morning.

Was -- was walking in the street. He had just left his office. He's -- he's strolling by a Hilton Hotel.

Suddenly, he spots a man behaving suspiciously. He says, I have my eye on him.

I turn back, I'm in front of the Hilton. I'm standing there. And I'm looking at him.

And he starts yelling at me. In a language I don't understand.

Then he pulls out a knife. And lungs at me.

Now, they know who this guy is. He's an illegal alien. And they think this illegal alien knew exactly who this guy was.

Well, they didn't kill him, like they killed the insurance -- the medical insurance CEO.

So they don't have a hero here.

But this guy is being shipped out.

But, you know, here it is.

Again, the -- the uber, uber left, that is empowering all of this stuff.

There was a viral video that was out for ICE.

A detainee. And everybody was like, he was a dad.

And his wife was about to have a baby.

And they just scooped him up in the middle of the night.

And look at how bad this is.

GLENN: Well, yeah.

I mean, the problem is, you know, he was in a gang. He was convicted of murder, attempted murdered. Sentenced to 82 years in prison. He served 14 years.

But he was married to a US citizen. But notified by ICE that he had a report for deportation on June 12th.

So he was, you know, gee, I mean, it was just a murderer. It was just a murderer. That's it.

Meanwhile, the ICE facility in Portland, under daily siege by Antifa militants and riots, as they spread.

You're seeing now, 400 threats, in coming, to members of the ICE over and over and over and over again.

And nobody is doing anything.

I mean, they -- there's a 500 percent increase, in assaults. Not just threats. 500 percent increase in assaults.

While trying to arrest illegals. Okay.

All right.

This is not -- this is not what the American people want. This is not who the American people are.

It's not.

It's not. And I am absolutely convinced that there's something else also going on here.

And that something else is that, I don't know who it is.

China, Iran. Russia. Any of our enemies. Any of our enemies. We have enough of them.

They are stirring things up, I mean, is it a coincidence that last two weeks, it was all about the violence and everything else about the left?

And then their No Kings protest goes off. Then all of a sudden, this week, we're turning on each other. Everybody on the right is turning on each other.

Is that just a coincidence, really? Or are we being molded and shaped? Are we being pushed by foreign adversaries and adversaries here in the United States that want to see us turn on each other? Can't do it. Pay attention to what's really important because most of this stuff is not important. But pay attention to what's really important. If something is trying to split you up from people you already trust, don't listen to them. I don't care what they say, who they say they are.

They are not a friend of the republic.
