New York KICKS kids out of school for illegal immigrants?!

It has been a crazy past few days with one of the most insane news cycles Glenn has ever seen. But topping the list is a story out of New York City: A school has forced students to stay at home so it can temporarily house illegal immigrants. This, Glenn believes, is a sign of what's to come for the rest of the country if the Biden administration's border insanity continues. How does he know? Because he's seen it firsthand and documented it in the newest Blaze Originals documentary: "The Real Story of Colony Ridge." Glenn also runs through some other highlights from this crazy news cycle: The SEC has approved Bitcoin EFTs for institutional investing; Chris Christie has dropped out of the race; Bill Belichick has "parted ways" with the New England Patriots; The Red Cross is helping fuel the border invasion; and another shocker for the week: Dr. Fauci has admitted that the 6-foot distancing rule "sort of just appeared" out of nowhere.

GLENN: Let me just see if I can run down some of the stories yesterday. Bitcoin was approved for institutional investing.

That came from the SECC. Fifteen institutional investors were given permission to start selling Bitcoin. And including it in their retirement funds, et cetera, et cetera.

That's huge. That's why Bitcoin is going to break 50,000 here, probably in the next few minutes. There was the block of the budget, by 16 Republicans. Chip Roy, one of them. Who are saying, you -- you don't do something about the border, we're never going to pass a budget.

Never.

And God bless them for that. We have Mike Lee coming on about that in just a minute.

Chris Christie dropped out.

Gavin Newsom, we find out now, has a budget crisis. He refuses to call it an emergency. But if he will dip into the emergency funds, he then has to call it an emergency where he can't get any of those funds. It's $37 billion.

And yet, he's announced just earlier this week, or was it last week, that he's going to be covering health insurance and sex changes with the California health system? So you have that going for you.
Belichick was fired.

STU: Basically, they parted ways.

GLENN: Parted ways.

STU: I don't think they would fire him after the nine Super Bowls they went to.

They're parting ways. He will probably go coach somewhere else.

I don't know if I thought he would leave there, other than just retiring.

We're talking about probably the greatest NFL coach of all time. Arguably.

GLENN: Isn't Alabama kind of a big deal football?

STU: Arguably the greatest college coach of all time.

Also, Nick Saban leaving, which apparently was a great surprise, and the same day.

I guess it was one day apart, technically. But in the same 24-hour period certainly.

GLENN: Then we had the debate, a town hall.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: We had Fani Willis.

That story broke. You know about that, right?

She was having an affair with some attorney, who then she said, I'm appointing you special counsel.

On the Trump thing. Except, she can't do that. She needs permission to do that. It has to go through a board.

STU: Board, yeah.

GLENN: She never went through the board to do it. So she did not follow roar.

He's making like $650,000 on his special counsel.

They're sleeping together. He's going through a divorce. She's being called as a witness. That's the real ethical woman, Fani Willis, that is going after Donald Trump.

Then you also had Fauci yesterday, come out and say, the lab leak theory is not a conspiracy theory.

Excuse me. What.

The 6-foot distancing, we just made that up.

STU: I still see the posters for that all over the place. They're still just hanging over there, as remnants of that era.

No science on that particular claim.

GLENN: Nope. Nope.

Then you have the kids in New York, getting kicked out of their own school for illegals.

What -- what -- what would you do as a parent?

Wait. My kid has to move? My kid has to go someplace else, because their school has been taken over by illegals?

No. I don't -- no. I don't think so.

Then you had Hunter Biden show up yesterday.

That was bizarre. He shows up in Congress. And just -- and just sits there.

And everybody starts yelling at him. And then -- and then in an even more bizarre move. He gets up and leaves in the million dollars of it.

Then you had a couple of really disturbing things happen.

You have Poland, kind of teetering right where we are, on the constitutional republic line. Listen to this. This is the polish Prime Minister. Announcement he made yesterday.

VOICE: For the first time, since the dark days of totalitarian rule, we have political prisoners in Poland.

They are the former interior minister, Mariusz Kaminski, and his deputy.

Both are democratically elected members of the Polish parliament.

Both fought against companies during their visit to the Polish president at the presidential (inaudible).

They were detained by the police, and then taken into custody. This happened even though both received a presidential pardon, as the prerogative of the president allows under political constitutional law, in 2015.

The entire process, which culminated in the detention of two politicians took place in flagrant violation of the rule of law.

GLENN: Wow!

And to make that even better, I don't know if you saw the Canadian Mounties or whoever they are.

The Canadian police arresting the idealist. This is horrifying. Journalist is going and asking, I don't know, the interior secretary or something.

Why Hamas is not on the terrorist list, for Canada.

Listen to this.
(music)

VOICE: Why is your government supporting Islamonationalists?

GLENN: Watch this.

VOICE: You're under arrest for assault. You're under arrest for assault. Police.

VOICE: What are you talking about, man.

VOICE: You're under arrest for assault.

VOICE: You bumped into me.

VOICE: You pushed into had he.

VOICE: I have my credentials here. And you just bumped into me.

VOICE: Police, you're under arrest.

VOICE: What is your name.

VOICE: You're under arrest.

VOICE: Why am I under arrest.

He -- he --

GLENN: Okay. Stop. They take him away!

STU: Jeez.

GLENN: Now, this is a journalist that is walking down the street.

The police officer was intentionally standing right where he was walking. He saw him coming. He must move. The guy had the microphone.
And he bumps into him because he's walking backwards.
So he doesn't see him. But he just bumps into him.

And he's arrested for assaulting a police officer.

Holy cow. Meanwhile, as we told you last week, the Red Cross, if you're giving money to the Red Cross, you should stop right now.

In my opinion, you should stop. How could I say that?

Red Cross does a lot of good things. Yeah. They're also passing out fliers on how to get to America. All over South America, and Latin America.

Excuse me. What -- what -- what are you doing?

What are you talking about.

You're organizing?

Well, they're helping. You also have friends of the train. I don't remember what it is in Spanish. They're doing it.

And the United Nations is also aiding and abetting.

And -- and pushing people towards our border. We're going to have 10 million new people, here in America.

Just from the last four years. That's an invasion. Meanwhile, our Congress, and our president will do nothing. Nothing.

There were 15 or 16 Republicans, yesterday, that stood up and said, no.

You don't get a budget, without the border.

You secure the border, we'll talk to you about the budget.

But no. And now, everybody is, oh, my gosh. We're not going to have a budget.

We'll shut down the government. We should shut down the government. What is the government doing to help you.

What is the government doing to protect and defend the Constitution. What is the government doing to protect the borders.

The government is out of control. We shouldn't be giving them another time.

Make them work for it. Make -- force them to do their job.

I'm only asking for the Constitution to be followed. I'm not asking for anything radical.

Follow the Constitution. And execute your job!

And anyone who is not following, or worse, usurping the Constitution fire them. Or try them, if they've committed a crime.

My gosh. What is wrong with us.

Meanwhile, Houston, one of his top five city now.

Isn't it?

It's the fourth or fifth largest city in the country. Massive, massive city. It's growing by leaps and bounds, but it's growing with illegals.

You're going to lose Texas. I will lose Texas as a red state. You will. It's only a matter of time, period. Why do you think they're bringing all these illegals in?

Two things. One, elections. And number two, Cloward and Piven.

Overwhelm the system.

That's what's happening in California.

Gavin Newsom, you think he's going to be put in.

Gavin Newsom, he has a -- he has a budget deficit now of $37 billion.

Why.

Because he's doing the same thing they're doing in New York.

Get out of here. We will put some illegals in here.

Can you imagine, if you have your own business. And you can't afford health insurance.

You can barely afford it. You're just at the bottom of the barrel.

And your tax dollars are going to give sex change operations to illegals. I think -- I think I would lose my mind.

I think I would lose my mind. I would definitely lose my house.

I would sell my house, so fast, and get out of that state.

That's -- that's true insanity.

You can't make the budget, and so what is he cutting?

What is he cutting?

Tell me, Stu. How this one makes any sense at all.

What is Gavin Newsom cutting now that he has a deficit of 37. Sorry. $37 billion.

It will be 68 billion, if he does nothing.

Okay.

So he's taking $13 billion from his rainy day fund. Reserves. Which you're not supposed to touch, unless you declare an emergency.

But he won't declare an emergency. He is taking 8.5 billion, for programs. Deferring some spending to the future.

And spreading it out over more years.

8.5 billion in spending cuts.

Half of those cuts are for housing.

Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Hold on. You're going to cut housing, and yet, millions of people are coming across the border. And you already have a housing crisis in California.
How does that work?

Then the other thing he's doing, is he's cutting on many of the promises, on climate change. Now, if you're Gavin Newsom -- remember, this is the World War II of this generation.

How is he possibly doing that?

Hmm.

What are the things he's cutting?

Well, he said, I won't cut free kindergarten. Because he just added that.

I won't cut health insurance for all low income adults, regardless of their immigration status.

So he's married to those two things.

But he does want to delay a planned minimum wage increase for health care workers.

So wait a minute. I thought that was going to help everybody. Everybody wins in that.

Why would you -- if that only helps people make money, and it doesn't harm the businesses, why would you do that.

Why.

Then, he is going to cut 40 million from a program.

That helps local and regional governments fight the impacts of extreme heat.

$23 million for a pilot program, to deploy zero emission trucks that transfer goods from ports.

Six hundred million in spending for programs to help motorists replace gas vehicles with hybrid and zero emission versions.

If you actually believe this is the end of the world, why would you you cut those things?

Why?

And this is the guy people say, they're going to run. Okay.

If -- if America is that insane, well, then we deserve what we have coming to us, I guess.

So what does all of this mean? And what is truly the big story of yesterday, and today?

We'll tell you in 60 minutes. When it comes to being prepared for disasters. There is no time like the present. If God forbid, if you find you and your family where food is hard to come by.

So the biggest story today, is this.

I want you to imagine. Play the audio of the mother outside of the New York school.

Where her kids and all the kids have been told to leave. Because school needs to be occupied now by illegal immigrants.
(music)

VOICE: How does it feel? You feel good? I hope you feel good!

GLENN: So her kids can't go to school because the school is now occupied by illegal immigrants.

Okay. Imagine yourself in that situation.

Now, if you've ever been to Brazil, I want you to imagine something else.

If you've been to Brazil or Rio, you know, it's wealth. And like, I have no clothing poverty.

Okay. And they live right on the other side of the fence.

It is despicable.

Awful.

It's poverty like Americans have never seen before.

But that's what we're talking about. If we bring the third world here, without a plan, without ways for them to realize the American dream.

And we just keep giving stuff. Or worse, we let people prey on them.

We're going to be a third world country.

That is your future.

Living where you live, and right on the other side of the fence, is massive poverty.
How do I know?

I've been to Colony Ridge in Houston.

And that is what it is. Across your fence is wild like never before seen poverty. It's not all of Colony Ridge.

But it is -- it is going to be popping up everywhere. Currently, it's in Houston.

But these developments, when unscrupulous people, not doing anything illegal. See the opportunity, to make millions of dollars.

They're going to do this, repeat this, all over America. What is Colony Ridge?

It is the name of a development, just outside of Houston, Texas.

About 30 minutes outside of Texas. So your community distance.

And it is -- in many parts of it, third world feeling. Okay.

Are the people happy? Some of them are. Some of them are really unhappy.

What is the whole story?

Because the New York Post didn't get it right. I don't think The Daily Wire got it right. We tried really hard to get this right.

And you will see the truth of Colony Ridge. And it's be the about the Texas development.

It is about you and your neighborhood.

If you don't stand up. If Congress doesn't stand up and say, no budget. If there's no border security, then this will come to your community. It may already be there.

WARNING: How America Elects a Socialist President in 2028 | Glenn TV | Ep 444

The rise of Zohran Mamdani, the 33-year-old socialist who just won the Democratic primary for mayor, is not just a political earthquake shaking New York City — it’s a warning for the rest of America. Backed by Bernie Sanders, AOC, and the Democratic Socialists of America, Mamdani promises free everything, to tax the rich, and to dismantle capitalism. There’s nothing new about this tired strategy, but the media is propping him up as a new political genius. And with Democrat leaders lining up behind him, it’s clear: This radicalism isn’t fringe anymore. It’s the Democratic Party’s future. Mamdani’s rise is part of a larger movement that’s rewriting America’s values. Glenn Beck explains how New York is the prototype for the Left’s socialist makeover of America. Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Standford, gives a terrifying prediction on Mamdani’s mayoral race chances and warns the revolution is coming for mainstream Democrats. He also dives into MAGA’s frustration with the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files.

INSIDE Trump’s soul: How a bullet changed his heart forever

“I have a new purpose,” then-candidate Donald Trump told reporter Salena Zito after surviving the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Salena joins Glenn Beck to reveal what Trump told her about God, his purpose in life, and why he really said, “Fight! Fight! Fight!”, as she details in her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland”.

GLENN: Salena, congratulations on your book. It is so good.

Just started reading it. Or listening to it, last night.

And I wish you would have -- I wish you would have read it. But, you know, the lady you have reading it is really good.

I just enjoy the way you tell stories.

The writing of this is the best explanation on who Trump supporters are. That I think I've ever read, from anybody.

It's really good.

And the description of your experience there at the edge of the stage with Donald Trump is pretty remarkable as well. Welcome to the program.

SALENA: Thank you, Glenn. Thank you so much for having me.

You know, I was thinking about this, as I was ready to come on. You and I have been along for this ride forever. For what?

Since 2006? 2005?

Like 20 years, right?

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

SALENA: And I've been chronicling the American people for probably ten more years, before that. And it's really remarkable to me, as watching how this coalition has grown. Right?

And watching how people have the -- have become more aspirational.

And that's -- and that is what the conservative populist coalition is, right?

It is the aspirations of many, but the celebration of the individual.

And chronicling them, yeah. Has been -- has been, a great honor.

GLENN: You know, I was thinking about this yesterday, when -- when Elon Musk said he was starting another party.

And somebody asked me, well, isn't he doing what the Tea Party tried to do?

No. The Tea Party was not going to start a new party.

It was to -- you know, it was to coerce and convince the Republican Party to do the right thing. And it worked in many ways. It didn't accomplish what we hoped.

But it did accomplish a lot of things.

Donald Trump is a result of the Tea Party.

I truly believe that. And a lot of the people that were -- right?

Were with Donald Trump, are the people that were with the Tea Party.


SALENA: That's absolutely right.

So that was the inception.

So American politics has always had movements, that have been just outside of a party. Or within a party.

That galvanize and broaden the coalition. Right? They don't take away. Or walk away, and become another party.

If anything, if there is a third party out there, it's almost a Republican Party.

Because it has changed in so many viable and meaningful ways. And the Tea Party didn't go away. It strengthened and broadened the Republican Party. Because these weren't just Republicans that became part of this party.

It was independents. It was Democrats.

And just unhappy with the establishment Republicans. And unhappy with Democrats.

And that -- that movement is what we -- what I see today.

What I see every day. What I saw that day, in butler, when I showed I happen at that rally.

As I do, so many rallies, you know, throughout my career. And that one was riveting and changed everything.

GLENN: You made a great case in the opening chapter. You talk about how things were going for Donald Trump.

And how this moment really did change everything for Donald Trump.

Changed the trajectory, changed the mood.

I mean, Elon Musk was not on the Trump train, until this.

SALENA: Yeah.

GLENN: Moment. What do I -- what changed? How -- how did that work?

And -- and I contend, that we would have much more profound change, had the media actually done their job and reported this the way it really was. Pragmatism

SALENA: You know, and people will find this in the book. I'm laying on the ground with an agent on top of me.

I'm 4 feet away from the president.

And there's -- there's notices coming up on my phone. Saying, he was hit by broken glass.

And to this take, that remains part of this sibling culture, in American politics.

Because reporters were -- were so anxious to -- to right what they believed happened.

As opposed to what happened.

And it's been a continual frustration of mine, as a reporter, who is on the ground, all the time.

And I'll tell you, what changed in that moment.

And I say a nuance, and I believe nuance is dead in American journalism.

But it was a nuance and it was a powerful conversation, that I had with President Trump, the next day. He called me the next morning.

But it's a powerful conversation I had with him, just two weeks ago.

When he made this decision to say, fight, fight, fight.

People have put in their heads, why they think he said it. But he told me why he said that. And he said, Salena, in that moment, I was not Donald Trump the man. I was a former president. I was quite possibly going to be president again.

And I had an obligation to the country, and to the office that I have served in, to project strength. To project resolve.

To project that we will not be defeated.

And it's sort of like a symbolic eagle, that is always -- you know, that symbol that we look at, when we think about our country.

He said, that's why I said that. I didn't want the people behind me panicking. I didn't want the people watching, panicking.

I had to show strength. And it's that nuance -- that I think people really picked up on.

And galvanized people.

GLENN: So he told me, when he was laying down on the stage.

And you can hear him. Let me get up. Let me get up.

I've got to get up.

He told me, as I was laying on the stage. I asked him, what were you thinking? What was going through your head? Now, Salena, I don't know about you.

But with me. It would be like, how do I get off the stage? My first was survival.

He said, what was going on through his mind was, you're not pathetic. This is pathetic.

You're not afraid. Get up.

Get up.

And so is that what informed his fight, fight, fight, of that by the time that he's standing up, he's thinking, I'm a symbol? Or do you think he was thinking, I'm a symbol, this looks pathetic. It makes you look weak.

Stand up. How do you think that actually happened?

SALENA: He thinks, and we just talked about this weeks ago. He -- you know, and this is something that he's really thought about.

Right? You know, he's gone over and over and over. And also, purpose and God. Right? These are things that have lingered with him.

You know, he -- he thought, yes.

He did think, it was pathetic that he was on the ground. But he wasn't thinking about, I'm Donald Trump. It's pathetic.

He's thinking, my country is symbolically on the ground. I need to get up, and I need to show that my country is strong.

That our country is resolute.

And I need people to see that.

We can't go on looking like pathetic.

Right?

And I think that then goes to that image of Biden.

GLENN: You have been with so many presidents.

How many presidents do you think that you've personally been with, would have thought that and reacted that way?

SALENA: Probably only Reagan. Reagan would have. Reagan probably would have thought that.

And if you remember how he was out like standing outside.

You know, waving out the window. Right?

After he was shot.

GLENN: At the hospital, right.

SALENA: Had he not been knocked out, unconscious, you know, he probably would have done the same thing.

Because he was someone who deeply believed in American exceptionalism.

And American exceptionalism does not go lay on the ground.

GLENN: And the symbol.

Right. The symbol of the presidency.

SALENA: Yeah. Absolutely. And I think that affects him today.

GLENN: So let me go back to God.

Because you talked to him the next day. And your book Butler.

He calls you up.

I love the fact that your parents would be ashamed of you. On what you said to him.

The language you used. That you just have to read the book.

It's just a great part.

But he calls you the next morning. And wants to know if you're okay.

And you -- you then start talking to him, about God.

And I was -- I was thinking about this, as I was listening to it. You know, Lincoln said, I wasn't -- I wasn't a Christian.

Even though, he was.

I wasn't a Christian, when I was elected. I wasn't a Christian when my son died.

I became a Christian at Gettysburg.

Is -- is -- I mean, I believe Donald Trump always believes in God, et cetera, et cetera.

Do you think there was a real profound change at Butler with him?


SALENA: Absolutely. You know, he called me seven times that day. Seven times, the take after seven.

GLENN: Crazy.

SALENA: Talked about. And I think he was looking for someone that he knew, that was there. And to try to sort it out.

Right? And I let him do most of the talking. I didn't pressure him.

At all. I believed that he was having -- you know, he was struggling. And he needed to just talk. And I believed my purpose was to listen.

Right? I know other reporters would have handled it differently. And that's okay. That's not the kind of reporter that I am.

And I myself was having my own like, why didn't I die?

Right?

Because it went right over my head.

And -- and so I -- he had the conversation about God.

He's funny. I thought it was the biggest mosquito in the world that hit me.

But he had talked profoundly about purpose. You know, and God.

And how God was in that moment.

It --

GLENN: I love the way you -- in the book, I love the way you said that as he's kind of working it out in his own he head.

He was like, you know, I -- I -- I always knew that there was some sort of, you know -- that God was present.

He said, but now that this has happened.

I look back at all of the trials.

All of the tribulations. Literally, the trials.

All of the things that have happened. And he's like, I realized God was there the whole time.

SALENA: Yes. He does. And it's fascinating to have been that witness to history, to have those conversations with him. Because I'm telling you. And y'all know, I can talk. I didn't say much of anything.

I just -- I just listened. I felt that was my purpose, in that moment.

To give him that space, to work it out.

I'm someone that is, you know, believes in God.

I'm Catholic. I followed my faith.

And -- and so, I thought, well, this is why God put me here. Right?

And to -- to have that -- to hear him talk about purpose, to hear him say, Salena. Why did I put a chart down?

I'm like, sir. I don't know. I thought you were Ross Perot for a second.

He never has a chart. And he laughed. And then he said, why did I put that chart down?

By that term, I never turned my head away from people at the rally. That's true.

That relationship is very transactional. It's very -- they feed off of each other.

It's a very emotive moment when you attend a rally. Because he has a way of talking at a rally. That you believe that you are seeing.

And he said, and I never turn my head away.

I never turn my head away.

Why did I turn my head away?

I don't remember consciously thinking about turning my head away. And then he says to me, that was God, wasn't it?

Yes, sir. It was. It was God.

And he said, that's -- that's why I have a new purpose.

And so, Glenn. I think it's important, when you look at the breadth of what has happened, since he was sworn in.

You see that purpose, every day.

He doesn't let up.

He continues going.

And it brings back to the beginning of the book.

Where you find out, that there was another president that was shot at in Butler.

And that was George Washington. And how different the country would have been, had he died in that moment.

And now think about how different the country would be, had President Trump died in that moment. There would be --

GLENN: We're talking to -- we're talking to Salena Zito. About her new book called Butler. The assassination attempt on President Trump. And it is riveting.

And, you know, it is so good. I wish the press would read it. Because it really explains who we are, who Trump supporters are. Who are, you know, red staters. It is so good at that. She's the best at that.
