Is THIS Why Hunter Biden is Joining White House Meetings With Joe Biden?

Hunter Biden has reportedly started to join White House meetings with his father, Joe Biden. But what expertise does he provide? Could it perhaps be an expertise in a white powder that would keep his aging father awake during those meetings? Glenn and Stu speculate. Plus, they discuss how some in the media and Democratic Party are insisting that the President is fine: Deny what you see! And is Kamala Harris going to make a move to become the Democrats' presidential nominee?

STU: Because I will say this, I don't want this man to step down. I want him to be the nominee.

I want Joe Biden to be the nominee for the democratic party. And it's wrong to have him have to step down.

He's the right man for this race.

He needs to stay in it.

GLENN: Yes. I -- much to my own eternal shame, when I do put politics ahead of everything else, I agree 100 percent.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: With you. Because it's not really going to get better with Kamala Harris.

STU: Oh, no.

GLENN: Imagine her, answering the phone at 3:00 a.m. No.

STU: Good God.

I will say, and I think she did that in her previous jobs when she was working for mayor in Los Angeles. I think if you kind of go to the real future of the country, my initial reaction was similar to yours. And I've sort of evolved, Glenn.

GLENN: Yeah, okay.

STU: Which is, I'm really terrified for the next six months of Joe Biden being president. Should he step down immediately, for the good of the country?

Of course he should. However, if he does so, it's more likely, we have four years and six months of a president who is putting our country in danger. One that might be Mora wake. Might be more coherent in speeches.

But is also very, very damaging to the future of our country.

And so I'm kind of at that point now. However, you get these people out of office.

For the next four and a half years. Or four years. Is almost more important that happen what happened in the next six months, fingers crossed.

GLENN: Well, I have to just point out.

We have a puppet president. And we've told you. We've asked you, over and over again.

Who is actually running the country.

Well, it's a conspiracy theory. Because Joe Biden is so healthy.

He doesn't even need Viagra. He's having sex all the time. He's just so alert. And -- no, he's not.

STU: He even said something to that effect, didn't he?

He even sort of referred to that idea, that it was like his sex life was super active still.

GLENN: Yeah. Uh-uh.

STU: To show his virility. Not sure how that's going on the last few days. But good luck, Joe.

GLENN: Yeah. There has to be somebody that can put him on the back of a horse with his shirt off just to show his virility, like Putin did.

But, you know, he's -- he's not running the country. And that's the reason why Kamala Harris was selected.

Because she can't run the country either.

And we know this now. You notice the administration hasn't missed a beat. They just keep going. They're doing what they're doing. He doesn't know. He's not making the decisions. The question is: Who is? Who is?

If the president of the United States is having CPCs. (?) starting. Waked up at 11 o'clock in the morning.

Having a meeting, and now and then going to bed at 4:00, who is running the country?

My gosh!

STU: Yeah. And, Glenn, you should point out, those preparations which took place over six days for the debate. Never started before 11:00 a.m. And Mr. Biden was given a time for an afternoon nap, each day. This is according to the New York Times.

GLENN: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

STU: The only example they could come up with, had they were pressed with examples where he was really, really on top of things. Was him screwing over Israel. Which is when they were in the middle of all these missiles being fired at them.

He was on his game telling Netanyahu, no, you're not allowed to fire back. That's the only thing they could come up with.

Of course we had no evidence that was true. But the fact that he was inspired to be awake by screwing Jews over isn't necessarily something that gives me more confidence.

GLENN: You know, Jake -- did you hear Jake Tapper yesterday?

Jake Tapper accused the Democratic Party of engaging in Orwellian tactics. The opening of the show, Tapper called out the Democratic Party for engaging in a discernable pattern of lying to the public.

He argued party officials want Americans to not believe what you saw and what you heard with your eyes. And your own ears last Thursday night.

He said, quote, the party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

It was their final, most essential command, end quote.

You know where that comes from? George Orwell's 1984.

And that is true. But it's not just on this. America needs to wake up. It's not just on this. Listen to this story from space.com. Boeing star liner capsule is performing well, on its first ever naught mission. In fact, it will likely be able to stay in orbit beyond the initially envisioned 45-day limit. Now, wait a minute. Now, wait a minute. It's performing so well, that it's going to stay up there! You know, for a while. Maybe up there for a long while. And we might leave it up there. And then we will return those astronauts home on some other vehicle. That is not as good as the Boeing star liner. The star liner. They still haven't figured out what why the jets weren't working. Why the -- you know, the positioning jets around the side -- like 28 of them, just didn't work. They can't figure out why. Plus, it was leaking helium.

I don't know if they were having birthday parties up there. Why they had helium. But it was leaking helium. And now they're trying to convince us. No, no, no, no.

It is so good, it can stay longer than the 45 days. Yeah. That's right. Probably because the astronauts are like, I'm not getting into that Tet trap. I'm not getting back into that thing.

But deny what you know. Deny what your eyes tell you. Deny what your ears tell you. Deny what you know. That is the problem now, Biden said, he fell asleep on the stage. He fell asleep -- when did you fall asleep on the stage? And so now they're going to fix it. Because, yesterday, apparently hunter Biden is joining Joe Biden for all of his meetings now.

Hunter Biden.

STU: The crack addict.

GLENN: Well, I mean -- the only explanation for that is, yeah. Hey, Dad, do you need a bump? I can -- do you need to wake up? Yeah, I have something here for you. That's the only explanation. The people in the meetings are saying, we're confused. We didn't have any idea why Hunter Biden is now in the meetings and taking notes and discussing things, mand like taking the lead for dad.

What are you -- we -- what!

STU: I don't think -- look, there's a lot on the line here. And I don't know that I would recommend this course of action.

But he has this interview coming up with Stephanopoulos.

Do you consider a bump before it?

Do you just -- do you give it a whirl?

We know regular Joe Biden doesn't work. What if, you know. I mean, what -- what could possibly go wrong?

I don't think it could be worse than Thursday night!

I think maybe, you give the guy, a little bit of juice, and see what happens.

I mean, you know.

It might be a fun -- a fun story.

GLENN: An unnamed source from the White House said, Hunter Biden popped in to a couple of meetings.

And phone calls with the president. That he had with some of his advisers. Another person familiar with the matter said, the reaction from some senior White House staff members. Has been -- what the hell is happening?

Yes. Now you know what the hell the rest of us feel. What the hell is happening?

Hunter came back with the president from the family weekend at Camp David and went with the president straight into a speech prep. Hunter's presence in and around his father's meeting comes amid questions about whether Joe Biden should continue his election campaign.

Good Lord. Oh, yeah.

What is happening?

25 House Democrats are preparing to ask Biden to withdraw now.

STU: Jeez. Can't let the -- you have to stop this bleeding, somehow. If you're Biden.

If you have to figure out a way to shut these people up.

Get them through the next couple of weeks.

Get them through the Friday interview.

Let them see how good it will be. Delay. Delay. Delay. If you're Biden right now.

I don't know how you can do it. The momentum makes it impossible. He's toast.

GLENN: He's toast.

If he fails this Friday, George Stephanopoulos interview, if he screws up at all, if he zones out. If he can't express himself. If he doesn't look vital and invigorated, he's done. He's done.

STU: And we're going to learn so much about this. Because, I mean, you look -- the New York Times is all in, on him being gone.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: Every single story, is not only like, all these people are saying, behind the scenes, he's terrible. He can't speak.

He can't get through meetings. He's another anecdote. Here's another unnamed official.

And then over and over and over again, and then how can he be replaced? How would this work? Every story is about this, Glenn. And I've never seen any story like it.

Because we all know what the New York Times can do. And normally does in this situation. Lie. They don't report these anecdotes.

They don't tell you what these people are saying behind the scenes. They form the opinion, they want you to have. And that is what they're doing again here. And Stephanopoulos' approach in this interview will be fascinating to watch.

Because obviously, he can help take him out. If he presses him. If he goes after him. If he really makes this uncomfortable as possible. He could end the campaign.

Or will he do the old school thing, which they've been doing for as long as I've known every Democratic media member, and just soft-pedal it.

When he has a bad moment, step in. Cut him off. Help him. What do you think happens?

GLENN: The press is being used by somebody. I don't know who is in charge of anything anymore.

But the press now is spreading the narrative. That it's over.

He's got to go.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: He's got to go. So we'll see, does the press get their way? And when did they decide?

You know, they decided that he was fine, up until last Thursday. And then all of us were liars and, you know, misinforming. And using disinformation.

And Russia, Russia, Russia.

To -- to mislead, the nation. In thinking he was incompetent.

Then he went from -- he's Superman to, good heavens, we have to get him out of there.

Overnight.

And now they're rushing and saying, he's got to go. He's got to go. I would like to know what the plan is.

I mean, we're talking about all of our future here.

What is your plan? You know, they -- they -- they're now talking about maybe we do a mini primary.

And we kind of do it like speed dating.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: What?

It's not speed date for the leader of the free world! Speed date.

STU: It's interesting. It does to me, feel like the Kamala thing is the most likely thing. I mean, there's a lot of intricate, logistical reasons for that, mostly revolving around money. That make that so. But still, it's like. If they try to go down this road, and turn this into some big spectacle. I don't think that's necessarily going to help them. And you see a lot of people who are leaking against Biden are saying wonderful things about Kamala. Now, some may speculate. As we have said, since the very beginning. There's no way, this four-year presidency ends without Kamala Harris taking a shot.

At winning this. She is the most ambitious, selfish person in Washington, DC. And she, I guarantee right now, her people are all leaking against Biden to make this thing happen.

GLENN: Of course they are. Of course they are. And you know what is weird? Is so far, there is not a big push for her. Only Clyburn. Only Clyburn is really jumping on the Kamala train.

STU: Which is huge.

GLENN: Everyone else is kind of quiet about it.

Yeah. That's enormous. He's the guy who got Biden to pick her.

STU: And he's the guy who got Biden elected. Remember, Biden was losing in South Carolina. That endorsement is what turned around the primary in 2020.

So that is a -- a huge part of this.

So let me ask you this, Glenn. Maybe you can answer this after the break.

You are going on vacation, next week.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: When you come back, is Joe Biden the democratic nominee?

GLENN: Okay. If he holds his own on Friday's George Stephanopoulos. If he's okay and he doesn't make any critical errors. And he doesn't look bad, he's still the nominee.

STU: Hmm. That's a big question though.

GLENN: I know.

If he does poorly, it's over.

STU: This interview, you think is the entire ball game. At least for the moment?

GLENN: Oh, yeah. Yeah. And they might turn to, you know, Dr. Hunter.

Seriously.

I mean, if you have -- if you have this, and you're Joe Biden, I mean, you don't try a little cocaine? It's the end. It's the end. It's the end.

STU: I like this. It's possible he might just try -- look, they've already found it in the White House. I don't know why everyone understood (?) was more of a crack guy. It's a different form of what they found in the White House.

Maybe Joe has taken the other path. I don't know. But I think you're right though.

This is -- this was his attempt to say, let me put something on the board.

You're going to see me in real time. You're going to see how I perform. And judge me by that.

There are 100 reports today, that I read this morning, Glenn. From insider tip sheets. And all these other things, of people saying Friday is too late.

It's Wednesday!

They're saying Friday is too late.

GLENN: And you have a holiday. And tomorrow is a holiday.

STU: When was he supposed to do the interview?

I guess he could do it on Tuesday.

They're saying, yesterday. Yeah. We know the Stephanopoulos thing is coming. That's too late.

This is how committed they are to this.

GLENN: Yeah. And I am -- you know, I just don't -- I mean, I'm on with peers Morgan today. And I know he's going to argue (?) with me on Ukraine like, oh, gosh. Shut up, man.

You know, and he's going to call me a Putin apologist and everything else.

Because if you disagree with him on Ukraine. You're a Putin apologist.

And I was thinking about my approach with this. And I think I'm just going to say, first of all.

You know, we're never going to agree. So why are you doing this?

Why?

But the second thing is, peers, you've never understood America. Never (?) you conflate American conservatives, with, you know, the far right, in France. And they're completely different.

And what you don't understand, America has fundamentally changed. Conservatives have fundamentally changed.

We don't trust the government. And this time we have a list of things to show us. No.

I don't -- I don't trust the government. So when it comes to Ukraine. It comes to who is president. Who is running the country.

I have no idea.

I have no idea.

And all possibilities are out on the table. Because we're seeing things that we have never seen before. I would just say, it's time for people to take responsibility of their open actions and their own life, right now. Because I don't trust anyone, in power.

Glenn Beck exposes media hypocrisy over Trump's White House renovations

Glenn Beck breaks down the absurd outrage surrounding President Trump’s privately funded White House renovations and exposes the double standard that the media refuses to admit. From FDR’s taxpayer-funded swimming pool to Nancy Reagan’s privately raised china, every president has upgraded the people’s house. But when Trump uses his own money to restore historic rooms and fix century-old fixtures, the press calls it “grotesque.” Glenn lays out the forgotten history, the hypocrisy, and why this outrage says more about today’s media than about Trump.

GLENN: All right. So let me give you some perspective on this White House nonsense. Nonsense.

Every time a president dares touch the plaster or paint of the White House, the press loses its collective mind. And seeming, unless the name is Obama, we have seen this happen over and over and over again.

So let me give you some history.

When FDR built the East and west wings. Okay. Those were not there before FDR.

The east and west wings built by FDR, Washington reporters acted as if he were electing a palace while the people starved. I looked up the headlines. These were fabulous. Now, I think you could probably make the case, with the East Wing. Because it -- it included a swimming pool that was just for FDR.

Examine it was all paid for bit taxpayers. And at the time, America was in the Great Depression. And bread lines were circling the blocks. Families lived on ration books, and the government was picking up the tab for the president's expansion of the White House, which included a giant pool for him. Yet, history has been kind to him. And now, The East Wing is revered.

All of the buildings, the press cried outrage over them. They are the now the same buildings they are crying outrage now. Except, this time, the east wing is too historic to change. Just how dare he do this. So let me give you a first of many huge differences here.

What Trump is doing will not cost the American people a dime. Not a dime. Even when the press and those on the left admit that it is private funding. They say, yes. But it is a grotesque waste of money.

Wait a minute. From the people that just took 294 million dollars from billionaires. Over a quarter of a billion dollars, for The No Kings movement, you're lecturing me on what people should do with private funds?

Please, give it a rest. Okay. So not a cent of taxpayer money is going into this. It's privately funded by him and those friends that he's called and said, "Can you help us out on this?"

Okay. Privately funded. The second difference is, it's not for his use. There's no swimming pool. There's no tennis court. You know, there's no Obama basketball court. It's not for his use.

And even, you know, if it had things that the President would use in it. It's not going to be completed until after he leaves office. After he's gone.

So it's not private. It's being funded privately. It's a state dining room and ballroom.

The only thing private about this is the funding. We should all be celebrating this. America is getting an upgrade, and we're not paying for it.

And don't get me wrong. If this was done by really, anybody else, including George Bush or any of the Republicans, presidents past. I would probably have a bigger problem with this. But I am -- I am under an agreement that I cannot share all the things that I know about what the president is doing, and has done to the White House.

Not for any other reason of, he just -- he's not like that. He does not want credit for really great things. I can tell you -- no, no, no, no.

STU: What are we talking about here?

GLENN: No, no. It's weird. It's weird. He doesn't like that softer side of him. It's weird.

STU: Yes. So let's clarify about it. He absolutely does want credit for really great things. He takes it all the time and a lot of times deserves it.

GLENN: Right. But not in this --

STU: But this is a different type of thing?

GLENN: And I looked at him, and I had to sign this.
And I'm like, "Why? Why?" Because I signed a non-disclosure. And so I know what he's doing. I have seen what he has done, up front personal. And there is no one better to work on the White House than him. Okay?

No one better. He's upgrading things that -- that and he's doing it the right way.

Yet, the media, their outrage, it's identical to 1933.

Only, this time, the facts don't fit the fury.

Okay?

Let me remind you of another scandal at the White House.

Nancy Reagan and the White House China. Okay?

Let me give you the headlines from this one. Quote, out of touch Nancy spends $200,000 on plates. While Americans starve!

Americans were starving in the 1980s? Really?

Reagan royalty dine in luxury, as cuts hit the poor.

This was for White House China.

Now, the press made her look like she was royalty and she just couldn't eat off of everyday plates. That's not the truth.

And I know the truth. Because before the White House butler.

And this was under George W. Bush.

The butler who had worked there since the Johnson administration, the White House butler is the head guy!

Okay? He oversees everything in the White House.

I spent the day with him. And just talked to him as I really wanted to do, a podcast or a video with him, but he wouldn't.

And his stories were unbelievable. And he told me a story about the White House China. Because we went down. And he was showing me all the China and everything else from all the different presidents. And he said, you know, one of the best first ladies we ever had. That I ever worked for. Was Nancy Reagan.

I said, really? Even with the China thing, huh. Because she was out of control.

He said, no. Let me tell you that story. He said, Nancy came to him and said, what does the White House need? Because every President -- most of them -- some don't steal the furniture.

Every president tries to leave the White House better than they went in. So she said, "What is it that the White House needs? I'll raise the money for it."

He said, "We need a complete set of state china. We don't have enough, you know, matching plates for official dinners. So we have all this mismatched stuff, and it looks like terrible." So she, again, didn't use taxpayer dollars. She raised private funds so the White House could have a matching set of China for foreign dignitaries when they come. Well, the press turned her into an absolute villain. And the butler told me, he said, "I begged her. I begged her. Please, let me go public. Let me defend -- let me tell the press this was me, not you." And she said, "I'm a big girl, this comes with the job. Now, you just do your job. I'll take the heat from this."

Now, that used -- that's the kind of strength that people used to really respect in America. But, you now, not if it's coming from a Republican. That's the kind of dignity that Melania showed when the press tore her apart recently on absolutely everything.

But before I get to that, let me just -- let me stop at Hillary Clinton. Because she's one of the loudest critics of what's going on. Okay.

The ballroom. It's an outrage.

This is the same First Lady who upon leaving the White House, carted off more than $250,000 of White House furniture! The only thing that got her to routine it was the backlash in the press. By the way, her staff also, if you remind, and her husband, they left penny vandalism behind. Prying all the Ws off all the keyboards. Before the George W. Bush team arrived. So they vandalized and stole furniture. Let me show you the flip here. When Donald Trump arrived, and he entered office the first time, what he found was a greatly aging White House and executive West Wing. Okay.

The -- all the doorknobs were mismatched. They were loose. They were cracked. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Worn carpets. Almost century-old bathrooms that desperately needed updating. In America's most symbolic home, can we have some nice bathrooms here, that just work, they are not 100 years old. You would want that in your house!

He took out of his own pocket, to restore these things, in ways that were absolutely appropriate and beautiful for the White House.
The doorknobs alone, he had them cast. Custom brass doorknobs. Engraved with the presidential seal. They are some of the most beautiful doorknobs, I've ever seen.

I can't imagine how much they've cost him. Okay?

They were not cheap.

But you weren't built for it.

You most likely don't even know any of these things. Okay?

Because it's the people's house. He's restoring the people's house. And trying to make it nicer. With Trump, however, no good deed goes unpunished.

Just the doorknobs alone, beautiful and historic. Okay. Just that. But let me tell you when Biden's team came in. Those very fixtures, the doorknobs, some of them just mysteriously disappeared.

Souvenirs for the adults who were back in charge.

The Forgotten Meaning of the 'Pledge of Allegiance' | Glenn Beck's Patriotic Wake-Up Call

Glenn Beck revisits the true meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance revealing how each word holds the key to restoring America’s moral and spiritual foundation. More than a schoolroom ritual, it’s a sacred promise: to defend liberty, pursue justice, remain united, and acknowledge a higher power beyond government. Have we forgotten what this pledge really stands for and what it asks of us as Americans?

Transcript

GLENN: What is the solution to fixing our country?

Let me take this line by line.

I pledge allegiance.

Those first three words, that's a solemn vow. Okay?

That's -- that's not a casual statement. It is a binding promise.

You are pledging allegiance. And allegiance is more than just an agreement. It is loyalty!

It means, I choose to stand. I'm going to stand here. I'm going to stand with. I'm going to defend. And I'm going to uphold something. I pledge, more than a promise. I pledge allegiance.

And I'm going to do it even when it's hard, even when it costs me. I pledge allegiance. That is not lip service. That is a declaration of devotion to the flag! The flag is not just cloth and stitching.

And you are not pledging your allegiance to that piece of cloth.

You're -- you're pledging can't allegiance to the flag, which is the embodiment of an idea. It is a visual representation of the nation itself.

When I pledge my allegiance to the flag, I am pledging not to the fabric. But to the principles! The history. And the sacrifices that that flag represents.

Every fold, every star, every stripe, is a reminder of lives given, dreams pursued. And a promise kept through centuries of struggle.

I pledge allegiance, to the flag.

Of the United States of America. We look at the United States of America now, and you see that kind of just as words on a map. The United States.

That's not what the United States is. That was never what -- what it was designed to be.

Okay?

The United States means separate, sovereign states. That has joined this union by choice, into one republic!

It reminds us that our strength is not found in our diversity.

It's -- nor is it found in our uniformity. It is found in our unity. The United States of America.

That's diverse people. Diverse cultures. Defers communities. That are all bound and share the principles of liberty and law.

America is not just a place. We have to reframe this.

It's not a place. It's not a map.

It's a covenant between free people in individual states, to -- to build something greater together than any of us could do, by ourselves. Or as a single state.

Maybe except for Texas. But that's a different story.

And to the republic, for which it stands.

This line is crucial!

We are not a democracy. Because a democracy always devolves into mob rule.

Okay?

We are a republic for a reason.

And what a republic means is that you are governed by law. Not whims. It means, our rights are -- are not the subject to popular vote. They are endowed by our creator. And protected by a constitutional system, designed to guard them, even from the passions of the majority!

And the flag stands for that system. The balance of our liberty and order.

One nation. One.

Not fractured by reason. Region. Not fractured by race.

Not fractured by ideology.

Not red states and blue states.

But one single nation. Made up of 50 sovereign states. All different.

This is a reminder that despite our differences, we share a common destiny, a common goal.

We rise together. We fall together.
And that oneness is not automatic. That oneness has to be chosen by each generation, by each citizen.
And defended. And renewed by every generation. One nation under God.

People try to make this all about a theocracy. It's not about a theocracy. This is humility. This is a humble admission that our freedom and our rights come from a source higher than government.

Therefore, they cannot be taken away or changed by government.

Because the government doesn't have the power. They're not issuing the rights.

They can't control the rights.

They can't take the rights away or add new right. Those all are issued by a power greater than man. And certainly, greater than government. It's a reminder also, in humility, that power must be restrained. That we are accountable to more than just ourselves.

It's the acknowledgment that liberty without virtue will collapse!

And that virtue requires something greater than yourself, or greater than man!

One nation, indivisible.

When I was a kid, I always thought, it was invisible. I don't think it is.

But indivisible. This is not a description.

This is a challenge. And one that we have forgotten. Indivisible means we don't allow hatreds. We don't allow division.

We don't allow ideology or faith to rip us apart!

It means that even when we disagree fiercely, we hold on to the bonds, that we have all chosen, as individual sovereign people. And sovereign states. To bind us together.

We hold on to those bonds, that make us one people.

We don't secede from one another. We do the hard work of staying united. Because division is the surest path to tyranny. With liberty. This one has gotten so screwed up over the years. Everyone thinks freedom means, I don't know. Freedom to do whatever you want.

Liberty is not license. It's not doing whatever you want, whenever you want.

It is the freedom to live by conscience. To -- to speak truth. To pursue happiness without coercion.

It's freedom that has been purchased with blood and preserved with vigilance. It's the foundation that everything else stands on. All other rights stand on that.

And it must be exercised responsibly or it will be lost. We are not exercising it responsibly. That's why we're having so many problems. We misunderstand liberty and justice, the next line. Justice is not revenge. Be it the Democrats or the Republicans. Be it Joe Biden or Donald Trump. It's not revenge. It's not equity or equality of outcomes. That's not justice.

Justice is the fair and impartial application of the law. Blind to wealth, to power, to politics.

Justice is glue that holds liberty with responsibility, together! And without it, without justice, freedom devolves into chaos.

With it, even the weakest among us are protected.

That should be the goal for all of us, is that kind of justice.

And the final two words are the most radical.

For all! They're also the most difficult. For all.

Not just those who look like me. Not those who think like me. Not those that go to my church or don't believe in God.

Not just those who vote like me.

Not just for the deserving. The ones who followed the rules with COVID. They got the shot!

No. Not those who are popular. Liberty and justice are promises extended to every soul, because the worth of this nation is not measured by how it treats the powerful.

How it treats the popular. But how it treats the least among us. The most despised. The poorest.

The most invisible.

As a kid, I said the Pledge of Allegiance a million times. I still say it.

But I don't think any of us think of each word and why it's there.

It's not a poem. You're not reciting a poem. You're making a personal commitment.

And this is the solution to fixing our country. You want to fix the country?

There's the grand dream, right?

There's the big dream. How?

When you think small, think every single line of the Pledge of Allegiance. Because that's the answer!

No matter how you voted, if you believe in those lines and understand what each line and each word means and why it was chosen, now, you can make a personal commitment.

You can make the commitment to defend liberty, when it's under threat. To pursue the -- to pursue justice, when it's inconvenient.

To remain united, when division is much easier and much more popular.

To place principle above party. And creator above state.

I pledge allegiance to the flag. This is not a vow to the flag. It is a vow to a living idea. That free people bound together, under God, humble under God, can govern themselves with liberty and justice for all.

Did Trump just THREATEN WAR with Venezuela?!

President Trump just promised to hit Venezuelan cartels “hard” if they “come by land” because he blew up all their drug boats. Is Trump hinting at a coming war with Venezuela? Or is there another message he’s conveying to Nicolas Maduro? Glenn Beck breaks it down using historical artifacts from Operation Valkyrie, the historical World War II operation that the Tom Cruise movie was based on.

GLENN: So can we talk about what's happening in Venezuela? I told you yesterday or the day before, I can't remember. I'll find it on the podcast.

But I -- I laid out what was happening in Venezuela. That the president is changing the entire structure of the world. You know, the WEF took 30 years ago to do it. You know, the UN took 30 years. He's trying to do it in thee. And I told you for years, what they're doing is they built this framework inside of the framework of the United States and the West. And they have populated it with all of their little droids. All of their -- you know, government officials. All over the world.

And when -- when it's ready, they will collapse the system, and it will fall into that system net, which will be one global order.

We know it. We've documented it. It's absolutely true. Say what you want. We have the facts.

The president knows that that's not the American way. And so he knows that we're in the same kind of situation, but he is dismantling that safety net, and putting together infrastructure inside that I don't think people really understand, that put American sovereignty back in its rightful place. And he is preparing for things like war with China, which we should be doing.

I don't want a war with China. That would be the worst thing that could happen. But we should prepare, because they're planning on it as well. So just like we did with Russia.

I don't want a war with Russia, but can we have Detente? Let's not be sitting ducks.

And so that's what's happening in South America. It's more of a target of Russia, and mainly China. To make sure that China gets the hell out of this hemisphere.

And the war on drugs, I think, is just a -- a nice excuse. And, I mean, yes. We have a problem with drugs, and so we're doing that.

But I think this goes much, much deeper than the drug cartel. This is what the president said yesterday in a press conference at the Oval about this. Listen.

DONALD: This is a national security problem. They killed 300,000 people last year, drugs. These drugs coming in. They killed 300,000 Americans last year. And that gives you legal authority. We have a national security problem -- really. And I will say this: When you look at the people we're dealing with, and we know them. We know the people coming in. We know the boats, we know everything else.

We're allowed to do it. It's in international waters. If we don't do it, we're going to lose hundreds of thousands of people.

Now, they'll be coming in by land a little bit more because they're not coming in by boat anymore. There are no boats in the water. There are no more boats. We know the boat almost immediately. You know, it's pretty unusual, when you see someone with a fishing rod and five engines in the back of the boat. You don't need that to go fishing. Wait. Wait. Wait.
GLENN: Listen to this.
DONALD: And we will hit them very hard when they come in by land, and they haven't experienced that yet. But now we're totally prepared to do that.

GLENN: Hmm. What did he just say?

STU: We're going to hit them very hard when they come in by land. Now, is that just border enforcement, or is he saying we're going to war in some way?

GLENN: I don't know. How do you interpret that know.

STU: I mean, just believing and understanding, you know, what he's been up to over the past nine months.

I mean, I certainly -- it seems to me, that he's saying, we're going to make sure they do not come in.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: You know, I don't know.

It's got to be some message he's sending to Venezuela.

GLENN: Okay. Good.

Because I think this is what he's sending.

I think the overwhelming -- you're. Think of Maduro.

You're Maduro. Put yourself in Maduro's shoes. You have B2 bombers, flying over your head.

You have the United States Navy, surrounding your country.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And you have the president talking about this.

How -- how well do you sleep at night?

STU: Not very well.

GLENN: Not very well. Why?

STU: You're worried that they can come in and invade. Or try to depose you.

GLENN: Why else might you not sleep at night?

STU: You know, you don't have blackout blinds.

There's a lot of --

GLENN: Because you have -- you have people in your own country. And in -- possibly in your own government.

That you haven't liquidated yet. That don't necessarily agree with you.

That would like the power. That maybe don't want to be a communist country like Maduro et cetera, et cetera.

STU: Right. Because there's big opposition forces in Venezuela.

GLENN: In Venezuela.

So you're not only worried about the outside force.

You're worried about the inside force. Your own people who are close to you. Killing you and toppling.

I brought some -- I brought some stuff in. I heard a quote. And I asked for some stuff to be brought in.

This is from project Valkyrie.

You if know anything about project Valkyrie.

STU: I will say, it's one of the greatest moves of all time.

STU: I have to watch it. No matter what point it's at.

GLENN: Me on top.

STU: It's a Tom Cruise movie, I don't know what year it was. It's about the plot to kill Hitler.

And what was it? '44.

GLENN: Right before. Forty-three or 44.

STU: Yeah. I think it was 44. This is the actual document.

GLENN: I have the order from Himmler to round him up. Yeah, November 44, okay? Right before the end of the war.

STU: Yeah, and they came very, very close to succeeding.

They -- they put in effect, Operation Valkyrie, which was a Nazi-era plan to be able to, if something like this happened, to be able to protect the Nazi regime. They kind of used that against the Nazi regime, and tried to take that over.

GLENN: And why did they do it?

STU: Well, they had -- there was a core of people who believed. Separate cores, in a way.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: A core of people that believed that Hitler was a bad guy. And that was -- they needed to take him out.

Now, there's different beliefs in there.
Some of them were like, "Hitler is doing things that are horrible. We need to stop him."

Some of them were like, "We're about to lose this war. This is about to go against us. We better on the right side of this. And be able to say, 'Hey, we tried to do something about it.'"

GLENN: Okay. So now let me take that very idea. Okay? R they failed.

This is -- this is signed by Himmler. You can see right there at the end. Signed by Himmler.

And you can see how they tried to burn it, as the Germans left. Okay?

We have all the documents from project Valkyrie. We have the death warrant.

Remember the general who stood up, and it was -- it was part of it.

But he wanted to kill.

Remember?

Don't kill them yet.

And I can't remember which general it was. But he was up on the balcony.

Watched him die. He killed him all.

We have his -- signed by Himmler. His execution order signed by him as well.

He got it in the end.

They figured it all out.

But what the president is doing right now, is what the president of the United States did in Germany at the same time. We're coming.

Look at the overwhelming force that is coming. We know who you are. And you're going to capitulate. Now, we're prepared!

To go on ground. Now, in 1944, we were. And we had to.

I believe what he was saying there yesterday, is you try to come across our border, and we will kill you.

Okay?

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: I don't think he's talking about ground troops in Venezuela.

STU: Yeah. That would be shocking.

GLENN: But you don't know. Do you?

You just don't know.

STU: 100 percent right.

GLENN: Again, it's the president.

I've always said, I wanted the president with a twitch eye for our enemies. Somebody that they go, I don't know. I think he'll do it.

I think he might be crazy. I think he might just do it. Okay?

That's how you get people to capitulate.

I think what he's saying here. And I think this whole thing is saying to the General Becks of the time, in Valkyrie. He was one of the guys who was going to be. You know, he had to get out of the country at the very end, because he was going to be picked up before Project Valkyrie. And he was one of the guys saying, we have a government.

We have a government. We're going to be able to have when the -- when the -- when Hitler is dead, we will assume the roles of the government. We will call the allies and say, you don't need to come in.

We've got it. We're your friends. We're your friends.

We agree with you. I think that's part of this strategy with Donald Trump.

I think he is trying to make everybody in that part of the world, who is against the United States.

Who is for communism. Who is in bed with China. Who are dealing with drugs.

I think he's sending a message. We're going to kill you!

Now, you can either help us on the inside, and then we'll let you clean up the mess.

We'll let you turn the country around.

Or you're part of the problem.

I don't know if that's true. But history always rhymes. And -- and Donald Trump knows how to project power. He knows how to -- I mean, look what he did with that rocket man.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: He didn't blow him up. But he kept him in a cage. He made friends with him. And like, kept him in a cage, in his first term.

STU: And people with -- would try to put him in a box with this sort of stuff. It's different strategies with this kind of people. The strategies he used for little rocket man. Totally different than what he did with Maduro.

And Maduro, you have to go back to the history of his first term. Where they outwardly tried to overthrow, Maduro.

And this is one of the very few things he agreed with Bolton, while he was working there.

Bolton said, that was basically a coup attempt.

He basically attempted that.

And he basically said, hey. We're now recognizing the opposition. Leader.

We went pretty far down that road once.

This is something we've focus odd for a long time.

GLENN: We cannot have an ally much Iran and China in Venezuela.

Just can't.

You cannot do it.

They have the terrorist camps with Hamas and Hezbollah. They send for final training. They send them to Iran. They train them on this island, right off the coast of Venezuela. They send them back for final training in Iran. That cannot stand!

Not off the coast of America.

STU: Most importantly.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: Can I tell my wife that I need to watch Valkyrie for work?

GLENN: Yes. Yes.

I might have to do it as well. I might have to do it as well.

STU: We have her studying this.

GLENN: I have to show you. I don't know if we've ever seen this.

This is something with the project Valkyrie stuff.

This is after we went in and we won the war. We were looking for all the scientists. But one of the things we were looking for were all his doctors. We wanted to know, what the hell was wrong that guy?

STU: Yeah. For sure.

GLENN: So we did an interview with all of his personal doctors. This whole document. It's fascinating to read.

This whole document is all of the interviews, with all of Hitler's doctors. What was he taking?

What medicines did you give him?

What was the diagnosis? You know, why was he -- his hand twitching. Look at his face. Why does his face have this line on it?

I mean, it has everything in it. The only thing, and somebody took it out, at some point, and probably either kept it or sold it separately.

We spent so much time trying to find complete documents. And we usually have to -- we usually have to go piece them all together. And buy them separately.

Some things are sold separately. In this one, somebody kept or -- or sold separately.

We had to come up for auction yet. We haven't found it. The x-ray that was that was taken right after Valkyrie. Remember, he was hit.

STU: All right.

GLENN: This is Hitler's blood, from that project Valkyrie bombing.

STU: Jeez.

GLENN: And he had to have his brain checked. Because they thought he had a really bad concussion. And so the only piece that is missing from that is his x-ray of his head for project Valkyrie. And I can't until we find it. It might take us 15 years until we find it. But we'll find it. It's amazing.

STU: Hey. It's the news. There's some history here, that I've never read.

Just so everyone knows. Quote, Hitler did not complain of bladder or rectum weakness.

GLENN: Okay.

STU: So now we know.

GLENN: Finally. I can check that one off our list.

Glenn Beck warns: Are Democrats putting ICE agents in the crosshairs?

Democrats IN CONGRESS are launching a “master ICE tracker” so radicals can know where ICE agents are at all times. Glenn Beck explains why this is a dangerous and potentially treasonous idea.

GLENN: Now, I warned in 2008. I was sitting next to Linda McMahon.

What? Saturday night, we were at a dinner. And Linda McMahon were sitting next to me.

And we were talking about the teachers unions. And I said, I don't remember if you remember this, Linda. But I remember in 2008, there was a little story in the Los Angeles times. And I read this, and I thought, oh, my!

Trouble is coming.

The teachers unions in California had decided to remove one of their restrictions on teachers. And one of the restrictions was, you could not have ever been a part of the communist party, or anything that had -- you could have never been involved with any group that had tried to actively overthrow the United States of America.

And they removed that plank!

And I thought, why on God's green earth would you remove that? Now, this was before anybody thought, "Oh, there's lots of Communists and radicals and revolutionaries," okay? This was right at the beginning of the Obama administration. And before anybody really understood what we were facing.

And I saw that. And I remember going on the air and saying, hmm. Something is really wrong with the teachers unions. Look out. Why would you do that?

Well, we know why you would do that. That's what brought bill airs in. And everybody else.

And you can do whatever it is you want.

And it was in California.

I've told you about this teacher, in California, three times now.

I think the first time I talked about him was in now and then.

And he was at -- well, I was at Fox. And he was with La Raza, a/k/a, the race.

And I showed you something that he was saying. He was saying at the time.

This is not about immigration or immigrants.

This is about the global struggle against imperialism and capitalism.

And I said, how is this guy teaching in high school? How is this guy a teacher in high school.

I then showed you him, last year, or earlier this year. Time just gets away from me now.

During the LA riots, during the last 9 months. The LA riots, and he was one of the organizers of Union Del Barrio.

And he was one of the guys, who was out saying, we've got to stop ICE. We've got to track ICE. Whatever it takes on the streets. These are our streets.

Okay? Revolutionary.

He's just won from the California Teacher's Association, the Human Rights Award. Why am I bringing him up again? Because it's not about that. I just want to show you that the teachers unions are embracing him.

Okay?

He is now in the news today, because he was at an anti-ICE protest, where he stood in front of cameras and microphone, and said, "We want the ICE agents to know. You're not the only one with guns."

You are threatening the lives of civil servants. You are embracing a culture of death.
You are saying, I don't agree with the law! And so I will take the law into my own hands, and I will start shooting civil servants. Husbands, boyfriends, fathers. I'll just shoot them!

Because I disagree with them! And this man is still teaching in California. Now, let me take this a step further.

Representative Robert Garcia, at a press conference, announced with democratic lawmakers, their intention to create a master ICE tracker.

Listen!

VOICE: Over the course of the next couple of weeks, the oversight committee will be launching on their website, a master ICE tracker.

Where we can -- essentially, tracking every single instance that we can verify that the community will send us information on.

GLENN: So I want to remind you that the killer, or the -- the guy who attempted to kill ICE. Agents here in Dallas, just a few weeks ago.

Was using a tracker, exactly like that. Now this is our democratic representatives from the Democratic Party. That are now saying, they are putting a tracker together for ICE a little.

This is assisting premeditated murder.

I believe this is treason myself!
You are going against the law! And you are now tracking federal civic -- civil servants. This is like saying, I'm going to put a tracker on every police car.

No. Try this. Would you be allowed to put a tracker on every Democrat in Congress?

And show, where they are. I know, it's verified. They're at this restaurant.

It's verified that they're eating at this restaurant. I verified they're at their house right now. I verified they're going to this meeting, and they're going to go through this door. Would you be able to do that?

Of course not. Why? Because insane people would try to kill them! Could I put a tracker on Air Force One? Could I put a tracker on Donald Trump and tell you his every move and where he's going to be at what time, all the time?

I mean, we get close enough to that. But you would not be able to put a tracker on the plane. Why!

Because people could shoot it out of the sky!

And if you think he's Hitler, why not shoot it out of the sky?

This is lawlessness. Can the president send in the National Guard to these cities?

Yes! By request of the governor. Or, if it is impossible because of the local community, and local governments, state governments. If it is impossible for the federal law enforcement officers to enforce the law!

You are giving him no other option. And they want it that way!

They want him to send in the federal troops. They want him. They need him to do that. Because that will prove to all of their lackeys. All of the people who are not thinking at this critical time in our country.

It will give them proof, see, he is a dictator. He's taking over law enforcement.

No. He is protecting the lives of civil servants, who are just doing exactly what the law is enabling them to do and demanding that they do!

And you're targeting those fathers and mothers and sons. You're targeting them. What option does he have?

The left is creating this culture of death. And if you honestly think, I mean, remember, look at -- look at what they did, when you got out of line with the left, they cancel you!

How many people were big on the left, and then suddenly, you think Bill Maher is going to parties with everybody? They cancel you. You're dead to them.

Well, what do you think is going to happen?

You're on their side today. You get out of line with people who are building a culture of death, you -- read about the French Revolution!

It started all noble.

Let's get the king.

And before you knew it, they were turning on themselves.

You've betrayed the revolution! You're a traitor to the revolution. And they started putting their own people into the guillotines and chopping their heads off.

And I'm telling you right now, Chuck Schumer and the rest of the weasels in Congress, the people who allowed these radicals in, in the first place. In 2004, I said, "You cannot let Michael Moore into the presidential box at the Democratic Convention! You can't do it!"

Because they will eat you in the end! And that wasn't a fat joke.

Well, it might have been at that time, also a fat joke. But people didn't see it coming.

And I'm telling you right now. Chuck Schumer is afraid of a literal guillotine being rolled in front of his office or his house.

Why are they not doing all of this with -- you know, with the shutdown?

Why are they just absent and they're like, "Yeah. Yeah. We're just going to keep going?"

Why?

They're terrified of their own side.

Because they know their own side will kill them.

And they just keep encouraging it.

They want a Colour Revolution. I did this show last night on this. I've been talking to you about Colour Revolution forever.

I -- I -- I just -- oh, that I would have the voice of an angel. And I could shake the earth. I wish more people could hear the warnings and pay attention.

But that is not my concern. My concern is just to speak to you. Please, please, listen!

Colour Revolution is the plan. Civil War is on the horizon.

Unless we live like Christ and we stand for the truth, our own side is -- is starting to fracture. Because you're buying into all of these crazy conspiracy theories. It's not this difficult!

Restore the eternal principles. Stop going down these rose of conspiracy theories. That just divide you from me. And me from that person.

We must stand together. Let's just agree on the Bill of Rights.

Let's just agree on a constitutional republic. Let's just agree, God lives!

God loves us. We have to serve him, and the best way to serve him, is by serving our fellow man with love and choosing life!

If we get lost in all of the other stuff, we are done!
