If we don't realize THIS, it will be the 'END of the western world'

A new study shows that Americans are prioritizing saving for retirement less and less as the price of food, gas, and housing skyrockets. This is still just the beginning, Glenn warns, as the world continues to spiral into chaos. We've seen this before, about 100 years ago. Back then, evil put on a Hugo Boss-designed uniform. Now, evil is rising in the Middle East. Because of this, Glenn puts it simply: "Want more peace? Have less Hamas." We must start calling evil what it is before America becomes like Europe with a disturbing amount of support for the evils of Hamas. If we don't, Glenn warns, "this is the beginning of the end of the western world."

GLENN: Tough times are coming. And when we get distracted by our own life in America, darkness grows and seizes the opportunity to do the unthinkable.

Remember, don't let a good crisis go to waste.

That could be spoken by Satan himself. Don't let a good crisis go to waste.

And I told you in 2009, almost every day. Chaos, chaos is going to be the word for the future.

And you need to be as far away from chaos as you possibly can.

And chaos causes people to turn away.

When the world shut down for COVID.

What happened?

The Chinese took Hong Kong.

All of those hundreds of thousands of people that we watch march, carrying American flags, hoping that the day of freedom was on the horizon for them.

They didn't know at the time, that the Wuhan virus brew, was bubbling up. And being worked on by the same government. That was taking pictures of each of them.

And finding out who they were.

As China forced the rest of the world into lockdown, as they were literally welding their people into their homes.

And sending drones to tell those trapped, to fight the demons inside of you that tells you you should be free. While all of that was happening, we turned inward. We logically worried about ourselves, our job, our business, most of all our loved ones.

That's normal. That's why I tell you to prepare now. Because those times are coming. And they're going to be harder. As the government lies continued, both here and in China, as they lied and lied and distracted us and the rest of the world, the Chinese government was not distracted.

Our government wasn't distracted. As to never let a crisis go to waste. They went door to door.

And they found the leaders of that freedom movement in Hong Kong.

How many people does the government need to round up before the everyday citizen, that was standing with them, or thinking about freedom, decides to shut up, sit down, or worse yet, turn on members of their own family or friends.

We've seen this cycle before. It swept the world about 100 years ago.

All for the good of the collective. All for science!

Eugenics. A new world. Scientifically born.

Good Germans sat down, said nothing. Because they were worried about the food on their table. And I get it. But soon, because of that, it wasn't their biggest concern.

How many that they worried about feeding were soon made into sausage by the war-hungry machine?

How many of the sweet children they tucked in tonight, just a few short years later, had been so indoctrinated into some sick, twisted ideology of death, that they would even turn their own parents in.

Most people don't realize the Germans whispered. Not only because the Nazis might have listening devices in their house, but also because in many cases, those listening devices were their own children.

They had become activists for an evil state.

And it happens the same, every -- every time. Divide and conquer.

Divide the races. Divide the religions. Divide the parties.

And then, reunite as many people as we can.

Under this new ideology. And make them into zealots.

This new ideology is -- is old as time itself.

Evil just puts on a new face, time and time again. Last time, it just put on a nice Hugo boss-designed uniform. And it convinces a new generation, that doesn't remember the past. The conflict, the chaos, the poverty.

That that system creates and then exploits. Is enough to keep most people busy, and not looking up or forward.

I want to talk to you today, about entering this time period. Because we are here. And may I ask, are we already tired of the news of Hamas and Israel?

Are we already done with that?

I mean, Ukraine, in my opinion, is bad guys versus evil guys.

I don't know who to pick. Because I don't see a good guy in sight, on either side. But this one is truly good versus evil.

And this one doesn't require us to fight the battle. We don't need to fight. They're not asking us to fight. They would just like some support, when they fight.

It's been over a week now. Just about a week. And the world is going back to normal already. In the first few days, Israel didn't stand alone.

The images and the atrocities were so clear, that the world had a slap across the face, and they woke up. And sat up in bed.

And then with breathtaking speed, normal assumptions are reasserting themselves.

Is this -- is this just intellectual and moral laziness?

Suddenly all the politicians, news outlets again, speaking the language of the cycle of violence and proportionality.

Israel shouldn't go too far. What?

What do you mean?

There is no moral equivalence here. The sides are not equivalent. There is no symmetry here.

There is no moral equivalence. There is no Israel oppression in Gaza. And no Israeli war crimes. Not that they're perfect. We're not perfect. Nobody is perfect.

There's plenty of misery to go around.

And there are plenty of war crimes. And there's one reason, because there is plenty of Hamas.

We all know how Biden economics has really turned this place around. Right? Right?

Aren't you feeling the glory of Biden economics? What do you think Hamas does?

Hamas has the built-in recipe. All they have to do is blame the Israelis.

But every piece of human suffering in Gaza is on Hamas.

Want more peace? Have less Hamas.

I don't know anybody that has a blood lust to have more innocent casualties, but, you know what, you can't go into another country and kill people's moms, dads, their children, and then hide behind your own children. I mean, your babies are going to get hurt. And that's on Hamas. That's not on Israel.

Every innocent harmed in Gaza is -- is on Hamas.

Israel -- Israel is exactly like us. We don't ridiculously expensive things. Do you know how much our missiles cost?

Do you know how much our bombs cost? Because they're all smart. They all have computers. They all have cameras.

To be used once and then destroyed.

Do you know how much that costs?

Why do we do that? Because we are for life. We are for life.

That's what Never Again really means. Life.

But that's not what it is.

That's not what it is with Hamas. They want all Jews dead.

They want to wash the world in Jewish blood.

And then our blood.

That is the highest as aspiration for their children. A martyr's death. Preferable with a side of dead babies, apparently. They love -- they love death.

We love life.

This is what they shout.

They love life. We love death. They chant that. Those are not my words.

That's Hamas' word.

So how is it we're going to sit down and have a conversation with people? See, this is the problem we're having in America.

We're not at this divide. But we're close. Have you seen the protests all over the western world.

You have seen the protests here in America. That are supporting Hamas, after the killing of babies, and children, and moms and dads.

Have you seen the videos?

This is the beginning of the end of the Western world.

We used to stand for something. And believe me, the Israelis are not asking for America to join and come in the war.

They're not.

They'll fight it themselves.

Nobody is looking for a kumbaya of nations.

Nobody. They're just looking for somebody just to stand up and go, you're okay.

I understand. We all have to pay attention right now. Right now.

Or we unfortunately will not be able to pay attention at all, for a very long the time.

What do we tell our kids about the world?

What do we say about Never Again? Is it even a thing?

What do we tell? Is there such a thing as an enlightened civilization?

A community, a nation. Are we all part of it, or are we all on our own?

There is good and evil. And what used to make America different, and the western world, is that there was a standard that was universal, and absolute.

And it was for everybody. Not just this side or that side. It was for everybody. It wasn't up for negotiation.

And some of those choices are right choices. And some of those choices are wrong choices.

Is there any nation that still remembers that?

We don't have to tell our children. And the Israelis don't have to tell their children that they're alone. Or they're helpless. Like our own politicians are telling our kids.

Like they're dependent on the world's goodwill.

They have to look at a politician and tell them the truth.

And Israelis have to look at their children and bear the truth.

They will have to bear up the truth as they grow up.

They will have to hold up the light of truth.

They will have to make sure they're on God's side.

And if they're doing -- if they're doing it, God willing, there will still be Judeo Christian nations that will stand with them.


God willing, if we tell the truth, maybe we can all begin to look at our retirement.

And what we want to do, when we finally all grow up.

The ONLY Trump/Epstein Files Theories That Make Sense | Glenn TV | Ep 445

Is the case closed on Jeffrey Epstein and Russiagate? Maybe not. Glenn Beck pulls the thread on the story and its far-reaching implications that could expose a web of scandals and lead to a complete implosion of trust. Glenn lays out five theories that could explain Trump’s frustration over the Epstein files and why Glenn may never talk about the Epstein case again. Plus, Glenn connects the dots between the Russiagate hoax, the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, and the Steele dossier related to the FBI’s new “grand conspiracy” probe. It all leads to one James Bond-like villain: former CIA Director John Brennan. Then, Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, tells Glenn why he believes his former boss Brennan belongs in prison and what must happen to prevent a full-blown trust implosion in American institutions.

Rumors explained: Is Fed Chair Jerome Powell OUT?!

After rumors spread that President Trump would soon fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, Trump has said that he's "not planning" on it right now. But is it possible for Trump to fire him? Will he resign? And how is the Fed Chair even chosen in the first place? Glenn and his head researcher Jason Buttrill explain ...

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Well, last night, I was rapidly looking the lie some of these rumors, on X.

Pretty incredible people on what's going on with Jerome Powell and the fed.

What the heck?

I was actually popping popcorn and watching this. It was so crazy.

GLENN: So it's just the rumors, that he is going to be stepping down?

JASON: Well, yeah.

Yeah. Anna Paulina Luna. Congresswoman. She was saying, it was almost imminent, that he was about to be fired. Actually fired.

There were other rumors saying, well, we're not sure about fired.

But he's considering resigning.

GLENN: Yeah. You know why.

JASON: We were like, what the heck is going on?

GLENN: So do you know why?

Do you know why he's resigning? Any guesses? I mean, you had popcorn out. I would love to hear what you have come up with.

JASON: So there was the CPI stuff coming out. The interest rates going up.

We know that the President wants interest rates to come down. I'm assuming that is what the deal is, and there's some sort of internal battle going on.

GLENN: Well, and the president can't fire the Fed chief. Okay?

So the Fed chief is the one that nominated. The federal reserve is the biggest crock of bullcrap I've ever seen in my life.

It's nothing, but the five biggest banks. Okay? And you know which ones they are. They're the ones that keep getting bigger. And everybody else is falling to the wayside.

So the Federal Reserve is the arm of those five banks.

Okay?

And they suggest, who the president can select from.

So the president can't say, I don't want any of these guys. I want this guy. Can't do it.

He has to take a look at the list that all the banks have put together. Is. Say, pick from this list, Mr. President.

Did you know that?

JASON: It's kind of how Iran chooses their next president.

GLENN: It's exactly. It's exactly that way. Except, this religion is all about the almighty dollar.

Okay. So he can't -- he can't pick on his own. But the president has a right to pick one, you know, every term. If it comes up in his term.

The president wants this guy out. And I think he's been really, really bad.

Because he's been wrong on almost -- on almost everything. But show me the -- show me the Fed, you know, the guy who the Fed was right ever.

So he can't fire him. But he wants him out. Because he wants interest rates dropped.

And, you know, the jobs are coming back. Things are coming back.

But interest rates keep coming up.

And the -- and the interest rates, if we keep our interest rates high, we have a harder time borrowing money for our debt.

And it just gets more and more expensive for everybody all along. So the president wants him to back off interest rates. But the Fed chief believes that that could cause more inflation.

Which I think he's right on that one. And I hate to say he was right on anything.

Because I don't think he was ever right.

Makes me question myself. When he's like, well, I think he might have a point on that one. But the president is like, no. He can handle it.

I want them down. I want cheap money again.

He refuses. So what has the president done?

The president can only fire him, with cause!

So what do you do when you can only fire somebody with cause, and you want them out.

You find a cause, and this one is easy.

So the Fed has been the one leading the way saying, we can't keep borrowing money.

We've got to have some fiscal sanity. Right?

This is going to kill us. We have to keep these interest rates high, because you are borrowing too much money. And maybe this is the only way to stop you.

So we got to keep it high, because you've borrowed too much money. And how many times has he testified in front of Congress? We've got to cut. We've got to cut. You can't keep spending like this.

Okay? Well, did you know that the Federal Reserve, with our tax dollars, the five biggest banks, a/k/a the Federal Reserve, is redoing their offices. To the tune of two billion dollars!

Now, I don't know what kind of wallpaper they need there.

But that seems like a pretty hefty renovation, especially when everybody is looking at cutting things. And you're lecturing me about spending money. So they get money from the government, okay? They're telling us, stop spending.
Stop borrowing.

Except, okay. What you've borrowed. I need $2 billion of that, to redo our offices in Washington, DC.

Excuse me?

Why don't you do that yourself. Okay. I think banks maybe have some money.

So they're borrowing that money, and there's $700 million over.

So it's $2 billion. $700 million over budget. And they're still not finished.

And the problem is: They're putting in water features.

They have a rooftop garden they're building.

JASON: Okay.

GLENN: I mean, it is -- it's insane. The president now knows, really? You want to play this game with me. I will sit your ass down in front of Congress, and you answer to the American people, how you're lecturing us about spending. And you're putting in a rooftop garden and a water feature in your office. No! No.

So the president is now threatening, I'll fire you for this. You want to quit, now would be the time to quit.

Otherwise, I'm dragging your butt in front of Congress.

You answer to the American people for this. And they will beg me to fire you.

That's what's happening.

JASON: I looked at that a lot.

Because I was like. There's got to be some leverage that the president had, because they can't get rid of.

But that is a pretty big cut. That sounds like a Babylon Bee article. $2 billion.

GLENN: It does. It does. $2 billion, 700 million over budget.

JASON: Oh, my gosh.

GLENN: I mean, and these are the responsible bankers. No, I don't think so.

It just shows, they don't mean what they say. They'll just keep doing it for themselves. You know, if you really believed that America was really on that financial cliff, why would you do that?

You would lead the way and say, guys, we are going to be the only responsible ones here.

We will lead by example.

No renovation. You know what, go to IKEA?

You need a new desk. Go to IKEA, and get a new desk. Well, we have to keep up our image. We're not going to have a country.

So what do you say, we go to IKEA?

Our image should be, we are going to lead the way out of this madness!

That's what a leader would do.

JASON: So, Glenn, I still don't think I get this disconnect between Trump and Powell on -- we know Trump wants to lower interest rates.

Powell is standing back and saying, basically, he doesn't want to do it.

Is he trying to undermine President Trump on this?

GLENN: President Trump thinks so. President Trump thinks so.

I think so, to some degree.

I mean, I'm worried about inflation.

Look, you know what happened. Do you know what's happening with yap?

JASON: What's happening with Japan?

GLENN: So what's happening with Japan, is Japan has always had this really amazing image of, we're solid. We're absolutely solid.

This is target to crack. The foundation.

1989.

Let me go back to 1989.

This was the crown jury trial of the global economy.

Back in 1989, you probably aren't old enough to remember.

All of a sudden, Japan owned everything in America. We were just becoming Japanese, and everything was being purchased by Japan. Kind of like it feels a little bit like China now.

JASON: They even owned Nakatomi Plaza, Glenn, that Bruce Willis had to save -- they owned everything in every '80s movie!

GLENN: Oh, yeah, they owned absolutely everything.

Okay? And the -- things were so insane in Japan. The grounds of the imperial palace, in Tokyo, on paper was worth more than the entire value of the state of California.


JASON: Wow!

GLENN: Okay?

So their land. Everything just shot up. And so they had all of -- they were flush with all this cash.

And people believed that Japan had suddenly, you know, cracked the formula for, you know, eternal prosperity.

That's the problem. Then it all started to fall apart. And the asset prices. That they had mortgaged against.

Okay?

They had borrowed. Well, the imperial palace was worth more than California.

That doesn't make any sense. You wouldn't mortgage it like that. At least long-term. I will do this real quick, and pay it off.

You would never, ever mortgage, because you know that's inane. Well, nobody ever wanted -- and it seems in governments, nobody ever wants to believe that this is just a fluke. Okay?

So the asset prices collapse. The stock markets plunged. And for three decades, they have gone into this very polite political coma.

Okay? Economic coma. And so the central bank did something radical. They were the first ones to set your interest rate at zero. They lowered the interest rate. They made money so cheap, it was nearly free. Zero percent interest. Sometimes, they would pay you to take out money.

So the -- they had negative interest rates. Can you imagine that? Now, you're not fixing the problem. You're just printing wallpaper to cover the mold. All right?

So they've done this for decades.

Now their debt is I think 260. Or 280 percent of their GDP.

I think, what is ours?

100?

80 percent.

Something crazy. 120. You never believe back.

The death threshold is usually 120, 140.

They're 260 percent of their entire economy is debt.

That's not a crack. That's a fault line.

So this week. Or was it last week? Things started to creek and grown in Japan.

And the government bonds, which are like our treasuries. Is this getting too complex.

Are you following this still?

JASON: Yeah.

GLENN: Okay. So their government bonds.

They were the safest investments on earth.

One of them. Okay?

It's us. Japan, Germany.

They started to fall.

Hard. And when bond prices fall, interest rates were the easily go up.

All right?

So they borrow all this money.

260 percent of their GDP is borrowed. Okay?

So they borrowed all of that money. And they had it at like 3 percent interest. Whatever.

2 percent interest.

And they were paying people.

2 percent.

Well, all of a sudden, the cracks started to appear. And people were like, I'm not sure this is stable at all.

And then the belief of the system started to -- to go away. So people started selling their Japanese bonds.

Once they do that, now the yields have to go up.

What happens when yields go up?

What happens when interest rates go up? For a government. You have to pay more interest on your debt!

Okay?

You add two or three points.

Just imagine, you have an adjustable rate. Okay?

This is a government having an adjustable rate. Except, they have 260 percent of everything they make, in debt!

And it's all leveraged.

And now, their adjustable goes up two, three, four points.

You're not able to afford that anymore, okay?

So massive problem.

Because what it really means is. People don't believe in Japan.

They know the con game is now over.

And investors are saying, you know, I want a whole lot more in return.

Because I just don't believe you anymore.

And it's not just Japan's problem. This is not a neighbor's house on fair.

This is -- imagine we're all living under the same roof. This is the neighbor's apartment, on fire.

We're all under the same roof. We all have the same foundation. And so when this happens to Japan, you should pay attention. And I'll show you the ripple effects in just a second.

GLENN: Okay. So now if Japan -- that means there's a stampede out of Japan.

And people are starting to look and reprice the risk of their money.

Now they're like, wait a minute.

The most stable. You know, if you're driving a car and it is the safest car in the world and all of a sudden, they just start blowing up on the highway.

You're like, I don't think that's the most -- that's the safest car on the highway.

And if that's the safest car, what does it mean for the car I'm in?

You know what I mean? So now, this is going to push US interest rates going up.

Which makes our mortgage rates go can up. And our car loans more expensive. And the national debt. Which is already costing us $1.2 trillion a year, just in interest.

Now, they can't sell their treasuries. People are skittish on treasuries. Maybe they come to the United States, but they're not so far.

They're getting out of the Japanese interest. Or the bonds there.

Japan has to pay their bills.

What do you do when you have to pay a bill?

And you don't have any money coming in.

You don't have enough money coming in. What do you do?

You sell something. Right? You sell your car. You sell something that you have of value.

Well, what do they have? What do they hold of value? US Treasuries.

So now, we are trying to sell our bonds, for our new debt, they hold our old debt.

They're saying, hey. Anybody want to buy this debt? Because I have to sell it. Fire sale. What do you give me for it?

Okay?

Which makes that debt more attractive, because they can get a better deal there.

Which means, if we want to have new debt, we have to raise our interest rates. Which means, we pay more for interest for our mortgages and everything else.

And it floods the market with bonds, crushing the prices, skyrocketing the costs for us.
And causing even more trouble, in other countries, that have US bonds. Because they start to look and go, nobody is buying these bonds.

Well, of course not. You have two countries. The two stablest countries besides Germany.

You have the two stablest countries now selling US Treasury bonds.

Okay? Really, really bad.

Now, let me add this on.

Germany is now having to pay for their own army.

And so they said, they're going to borrow money.

To build the army.

And they're going to lower their interest rate. So they can borrow more money. All right?

And now, the German bund, which is -- you know, like our Treasury. That's now starting to fall apart.

Well, Germany has some assets, they can sell.

What do you think that asset might be that they want to sell?

US treasuries.

We have been playing an extraordinarily horrible game.

This is why I believe the president wants somebody else in charge of the Fed, because the Fed can say, we're lowering the interest rates.

Because he's got to get more money into the system. So people can spend money, can start businesses. Borrow money.

Get things moving, so we can increase the amount of taxes that we collect.

The more people money -- the more people make, the more taxes we collect.

So he's like, we've got to grow the economy. And the only way we can grow the economy is to lower the interest rates.

But at the same time, interest rates around the world because of what's happening with the bonds is going through the roof.

We are in a very -- we've never been in this position before.

Why the Term "Conspiracy Theory" is CIA-Created Weapon for Control

Conspiracies are of course real and occur every single day. But yet, many in the media and elite political circles attempt to use the term "conspiracy theory" to smear and discredit those who are skeptical of conventional narratives. Where did this term come from and how should we understand it? Journalist Alex Newman joins Glenn Beck to break this down and how it impacts the world as we see it today.
