NYC's Zohran Mamdani praised convicted TERROR funders?!

Zohran Mamdani, the communist-praising New York City mayoral candidate who just won the Democratic primary vote, really likes a group of people called the “Holy Land 5.” Glenn Beck reviews how this group was convicted of funneling money to Hamas. Is this really the candidate New York Democrats want as their next mayor?!

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

There is a show, behind the show today.

Wish those cameras would just keep going. Because it's showing my staff to be insubordinate. I understand they already edited part of this show without my knowledge. And I'm not happy about it, Sara. Not happy about it.

Huh. She's not going to respond to me, is she?

Okay. Well, Jason, welcome to the program.

JASON: Thank you, Glenn.

GLENN: I'm just continuing to be abused today. I'm getting fatter by the minute. Just like Bowman said. You know, he has to deal with being called the N-word directly and indirectly.

And that's why he has heart disease, diabetes, cancer. I would think it might be the food that he's shoving in his fat mouth. Apparently not, it's being called -- you know, when -- I've been called all kinds of names. Racist, sexist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic.

I've been called a Nazi every day for the last 20 years. And you know what I don't do? I don't go and record a song, calling all my friends that. You know what I mean?

You know, I don't like it. And so I don't record music and then pump it out into -- into society. You know, I just don't do that. I don't do that. So could it be that that word is something that is really, really horrible, but you've decided to embrace? And then use as an axe to grind?

I'm just saying.

I think that word is really, really awful.

Not -- not like the word that was taken out of the show today, Sara.

Without my knowledge, nor permission.

But, I mean, I'm sure you know the FCC rules, much more than I do.

SARA: I mean, if I was offended, I'm sure a couple others might be too.

GLENN: You were not offended. You were drunk.

SARA: Same thing. Same thing.

JASON: I saw Sara gain 10 pounds, and get skin cancer at the point where he said --

GLENN: Right off the bat. Right off the bat.

Well, you know what might help, maybe we can free the Holy Land Five. Have you heard the latest -- first of all, we've got to play some of these. Let me see if I can find them here.

Some of the latest comments from Mamdani, who is, you know, running to be the mayor of New York. And I predict, will win. Will win!

Because New Yorkers are insane. But, anyway, listen to him, about his platform.

Cut one.

VOICE: You were running on issues that are very relevant to people in New York City. The cost of housing.

Free busing.

Some have projected that this is the type of platform that would work in other parts of the country.

I mean, you're a proud democratic socialist. Do you think that's a platform that would work for other candidates running. In other parts of the country.

VOICE: Absolutely. I think ultimately, this is a campaign about inequality.

And you don't have to live in the most expensive city in the country to have experienced that inequality, because it's a national issue.

And what Americans coast-to-coast are looking for, are people who will fight for them. Not just believe in the things that resonate with their lives. But actually fight and deliver on those very things.

And part of how we got to this point was through the endorsements of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders, who have been leading this fight against oligarchy across the country.

And I think that in focusing on working people and their struggles, we also return back to what makes so many of us proud to be Democrats in the first place.

GLENN: Right!

Communism.

I think that's great.

So, you know, I hear all the time, the talk about free bus fare.

You know, it's all over.

Here in the heartland. It's all over.

I've been hearing it from the farmers everywhere.

They're like, you know what I want a candidate to talk about is free buses. Because who will pay for that?

Actually, I don't hear anybody who is actually working for a living. And paying taxes, talk about free bus fare.

Because that would raise their taxes.

So I don't -- I don't hear that.

That's weird.

But the good news is, he's going to Trump-proof New York City. Cut two.

VOICE: I propose that we raise $10 billion, to pay for our entire economic agenda, and start to Trump-proof our city because we know he will use federal funding as leverage over this city.

And we will do so in two key ways. The surfacer to match the state's top corporate tax rate to that of New Jersey.

We are in 7.25 percent. They are at 11.5 percent.

Corporations get paid over there. They get paid over here.

And the beauty of it is, it doesn't just apply to corporations headquartered in New York City. Because when you say this, people will say, well, they will go to Florida. Wherever you are headquartered, as long as you do business in the state of New York, you are taxable for that corporate tax.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

VOICE: We're talking about corporations that make millions of dollars. Not just in revenue. But in profit.

And the second is taxing the top 1 percent of New Yorkers.

We're talking about people who make a million dollars a year or more. Taxing them just by a flat 2 percent tax increase. And I know they will not be happy about this. They may not to like this tax policy. I want to be very clear. This is about $20,000 a year. It's a rounding error.

GLENN: It is.

VOICE: It makes every New Yorkers life better. Including those who are getting taxed.

GLENN: I know. You know, when they increase my taxes, I think to myself, you know, this is making my life better. Who doesn't think that? Honestly, who doesn't think that?

So let me see if I can get this right. Help me out, Jason. I'm a little fuzzy. I'm a little tired today.

I can't do the math. I don't think I can do the math this complicated.

So it doesn't matter if you're headquartered in New York or New York City, if you are going to do any kind of business in New York, they're going to take your tax rate from 7.5 to over 11 percent.

JASON: Over 11.

GLENN: And that is for the privilege of selling your product or doing any business in New York.

JASON: Right.

GLENN: I've got news for you. I'm totally fine, you know, pulling out of New York, making sure that nothing -- New York, you're on your own. Good luck with that.

I'm sorry. A, I don't think you can do that.

Well, you can, if you're the European Union.

And that's working out really well for them. But I don't think it's going to work out well for New York.

Now, he did compare it to New Jersey.

Which is a booming business. That is seriously. No. Seriously.

That is -- people are lining up with U-Hauls just to get into that state. Mainly, so they can pick up their stuff and get out of that state. But I think that's going to work out well. That's going to work out well.

GLENN: Oh, amazing. And that's essentially. It's interesting you mentioned the European Union. It's essentially what they were trying to impose through a green new deal, Paris accord type stuff.

Basically, anybody that does business with company A, will have the same restrictions as B, C, D, all along the line.

Good luck, New York, because you are done.

The economic engine of the world is done, if you do these things.

But I think that he doesn't understand. Or maybe he does. I don't know.

But the mayor of New York City can't really do these things.

Maybe it's just populism on the far left corner.

Maybe.

GLENN: No. He can do these things, along with his city council.

JASON: I think --

GLENN: Which is not going to be hard. It's not going to be hard.

It's New York. I've lived there.

It's going to be very easy. Very easy.

That is the entire communist party. You know, like, hey, the communist parties. Do they have the Communist Party of New York. Do they have meetings?

Yeah. What day is the city council meeting.

Really, that's the way it is.

So you have that going for you.

Now, the other thing I really like. This guy has deep economic experience.

First of all, you know, he was in a movie, directed by his mother.

And he speaks in several different accents. Including strangely an Indian accent. Where he sounds like, you know, an Indian, just off the boat.

Do we have it? Yeah. Go ahead and play this, please.

VOICE: I think the New Yorkers, more than they hate a politician they disagree with. They hate a politician they can't trust. Just.

VOICE: On the subject of trust.

VOICE: They go to their local bodega.

VOICE: Is there one that's real and one that's effective?

VOICE: What I would say, as any immigrant knows, having been born in Uganda and then raised in South Africa and then moving here when I'm seven years old. They're different parts of my life.

VOICE: What do I choose? What do I choose?

VOICE: Mamdani was talking about a worldwide press tour, back when he was a rapper.

VOICE: Bring the flavor to the fish. Bring the flavor to the rice.

VOICE: In a Disney movie, directed by his mother.
(music)

VOICE: Nepotism and hard work, goes a long way.

GLENN: Goes a long way.

VOICE: Here in New York City, this is how I speak.

GLENN: Listen to this. This artwork goes a long way.

What the hell is that? What a phony this guy is. "A lot of artwork, it goes a long way. Mommy put me under her skirt when I was five."

What is that? Now, well, he's lived all over the world.

Well, I've lived all over the country, you know. I might say y'all once in a while. But I also might say you guys once in a while.

I say soda, and I also say pop.

Never soda pop, because that's just weird. But I say both of them.

But I never say it like this! Ever!

I mean, what -- what is the deal with the fake accents from the Democrats?

Why?

It's like they have -- I mean, I know they have no soul.

But it's like they have absolutely nothing real inside of them.

They're just like this shape. Oh!

They're shapeshifters. That's why.

They're actually lizard people who are shapeshifters.

Don't say that out loud.

Shh. It's just between us.

You me, and the other 11 million people.

That's just us.

Okay. Now, he also has made a big deal out of the holy land five.

And I want to get into that, when we come back. Because this one is really interesting.

Who are the holy land five?

Well, they're his dogs.

And I don't mean like he puts them on leashes. Hey. Who am I to say. That's not wrong to say, put people on leashes. Make them bark as dogs.

There's nothing wrong with that. You're perfectly normal.

They're his boys, the holy land five.

We will get into that from his great, great rap number called I don't know. Crappy crap.

I don't know what it was called.

It talks about the boys the holy land five. We will get to that in just a second.

First, let me tell you about holy earth.

I used to think sheets were sheets.

I am a sheet snob.

I really am.

And sheets are sheets. They usually feel like sandpaper.

You know, and then, you know, I went to a hotel once, that had really good sheets.

And I was like, oh, my gosh. What are these sheets made out of?

It's like cotton. But it's cotton that has 400 thread count. Or whatever the number is supposed to be.

And you're trying to buy those sheets.

Like, that's crazy. Crazy.

Cozy Earth makes really great sheets.

Cozy Earth, they make towels. They make lounge wear.

Which is material that is natural temperature-regulated. Breathable, soft.

Cozy Earth makes great sheets.

I wear their pajamas every single night.

My wife wears them every single night.

The Cozy Earth pajamas are really great. And if you're tired of being sweaty, you want luxury and comfort all wrapped up in one, make the switch to Cozy Earth today.

(music)
(OUT AT 8:49 AM)

GLENN: So let me play some of this super, super classic rap from Mamdani. Here he is.

His little rap, called Salaam.
(music)

GLENN: Yeah. I have no idea what he just said. But I'm like with all rap songs. So what he said was, me, Alamo Zohran, my love to the Holy Land Five. You better look them up.

All right. So we did a long time ago, but here to refresh our memory is Jason Buttrill. Jason, the Holy Land Five. Could you bring America back up to speed?

JASON: What's crazy is, unless you are in some way connected ideologically to this, there's no real reason why most people would have ever heard of the Holy Land Five or the Holy Land Foundation.

And I've been accused of throwing on a few tinfoil hats in my time.

But, I mean, this is pretty dang blatant on what his motivations are.

The guy behind the guy.

So just to -- like you said, refresh. The holy land five. This comes from a court case.

United States of America, versus the Holy Land Foundation.

So in a nutshell, this case revealed, for the very first time, an elaborate scheme, launched by the Muslim Brotherhood. To shift sentiment, pump.

GLENN: Hang on just a second.

Let me just -- for those who are keeping score, Muslim Brotherhood. Bad!

Okay. So I just want to speak down to -- or, I mean, just clarify to some people who may have voted last week.

I just want to keep score here.

Foundation bad. Muslim Brotherhood, worse!

Okay. Go ahead.

JASON: Yeah. We're going way back in the history books here. Muslim Brotherhood. I'll go even further.

They're the ones who created modern day Salafi-Jihadism. So modern day terrorists, like Osama Bin Laden, they all took reference from the grandfather of terrorism. His name is Asan Bannon (phonetic).

Anyway, this case was all about funneling money to the American organization. That would give sentiment. Cash. Everything. To funnel back to Hamas.

And kill Jews. And lead the things like October 7th.

So he's praising these guys, that got busted in this case.

And --

GLENN: Right.

Now, here's the bad thing. In Canada, the youth are now looking at the clerics of Iran with higher regard than they do, the United States of America.

This guy is going to do for Islam, what Barack Obama did for Marxism. Mark my word!

Supreme Court rulings on LGBTQ schooling, birthright citizenship EXPLAINED

The Supreme Court just issued major rulings on religious exemptions to LGBTQ school curriculum, birthright citizenship, universal injunctions, and more. Some were big wins for President Trump and the Right. Others were wins for the administrative state. Glenn Beck and his head researcher, Jason Buttrill, explain what the rulings mean for average Americans.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. So the first story. The first SCOTUS decision that came out, is Trump versus casa.

And, Jason, you've been watching this over the last hour.

So I want to make sure that I have this right. But the first one has come out in favor of Donald Trump.

And this impact on this one is really, really high. This one is so important.

The Supreme Court has decided that they will limit the federal court's ability to limit any kind of sweeping injunction, which now also signals an openness to restricting birthright citizenship.

And reshaping of immigration law. It -- this stops the power of the judges to block executive actions, nationally.

And this is important for structural implications, and for immigration. But also, mainly for separations of power.

Do I have that one right, Jason?

On their ruling?

JASON: That's correct. We still don't have a definitive answer on birthright citizenship.

But the thing that most people are pissed off about right now, is an imperial judiciary, and that's what they're a part of.

GLENN: Correct. Correct.

And that's really important. Struck that down. So that madness is going to end.

Now, the next one is Kennedy versus Braidwood Management.

And this was the case about the structure of a task force with the power under the Affordable Care Act, to determine, which preventive services ensure have to cover it.

The vote now is six to three. And that holds that members of the task force do not need to be appointed by the president, or confirmed by the Senate.

The majority opinion is by justice Kavanaugh, who writes task force members are inferior officers, whose appointment by the secretary of HHS is consistent with the appointments clause.

The task force members can be removed at will by the secretary of HHS.

And the recommendation about preventive services are reviewable by the secretary before they take effect.

Justice Thomas Alito and Gorsuch dissented, which is never -- never really a good thing.

This one is probably the second most impactful ruling.

And what they did is they sided with the government.

Which preserves all of the current health care mandates.

And agency design under HHS.

They will affect millions of people. Your insurance coverage. And executive agency oversight.

Not good!

JASON: No. And can I say, Glenn, how crazy it is that you just had Angelina Ireland on, talking about how nutso the Canadian system is, especially when you get just crazed activists in charge of something this important.

So basically, what this means is, is that unelected bureaucrats can still be calling the shots on things that are as important as the health care and the livelihood of your families.

This is such a huge miss. Oh, my gosh.


GLENN: Okay. So let me give you the next one.

This is the FCC versus consumer research. And we're really going in order of importance.

And so far, we have one, in our favor. One in the favor of the left.

The FCC versus consumer research. Now, this is all about delegation of power.

And the impact on this one is very high for all of us. The consequence of siding with consumer's research. It will limit the federal agency's ability to delegate power to private actors. It could disrupt broadband subsidies and rural internet expansion. The consequence of siding with the FCC, would uphold the long-standing infrastructure funding model, and reaffirm the administrative delegation.

Its massive implications for rural communities and the federal power to administer national programs.

Here's how they came down on it, on decision number three.

The vote is six to three, that's not going to make you happy. With the majority opinion by justice Kagan. And the court holds that the funding structure does not violate the non-delegation doctrine.

Again, Gorsuch, Thomas and Alito, were dissenting. Any comment on that one?

JASON: Yeah, I mean, this one is -- it's cloaked in this broadband service. To rural communities.

But what this is really about is, you know, scaling back or advancing the administrative state. And the way they've ruled on this. It does nothing to scale back, the administrative state.

The administrative state marches forward. With this.

Which is --

GLENN: And kind of with the last one too.

JASON: Yes. The last two. Basically about the same thing.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

So we have four rulings today.

One is in our favor.

Two are not in our favor.

And those are about the power of the federal government.

Just to continue to grow. Now, the next one is Mahmoud versus Taylor.

And this one is all about LGBTQ curriculum in schools.

And do you -- do parents have a right to say no?

If they side with the parents, that could force public schools to allow opt outs from any LGBTQ-related content. And it will reshape the school policy, nationwide.

If they sided with the school district, it expands state authority to teach inclusion topics over all religious objections.

So this one will impact cultural and educational institutions, especially in any kind of diverse or religious community.

So we are hoping that they side with the parents.

And here's what they decided: The vote was six-three.

Majority opinion by Alito.

The court holds that the families are likely to succeed and are entitled to a preliminary injunction, from Alito's opinion. We have long recognized the rights of parents to direct the religious upbringing of their children.

And we have held that those rights are violated by government policies that substantially interfere with the religious development of children.

Dissenting Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson.

Look at the damage that has been done by appointing Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson.

We -- Donald Trump has got to get another person on the Supreme Court.

We have got to have a young Clarence Thomas.

We have to have somebody who is just dirt strong on the Constitution.

I -- my hope would be -- I mean, there's a couple of people.

I will get into that, maybe -- maybe next week.

There's a couple of people, that I think should be justices.

And I would hope that we could get these names to the president, if it happens.

And he'll move in these directions.

There's a couple of people, that I really feel strongly, would be fantastic.

And one of them, you may not -- you may not be aware of.

So it's a mixed bag today.

Two on the state growing.

And two in the opposite direction. One, the -- the -- the presidency is not king. But neither is the federal court system.

So the federal court can't say, well, he's being fascistic, by saying, you know, he's issuing this executive order. He doesn't have a right to do that. And so a federal judge by themselves can stop and overturn the president. And his executive order. That can't happen.

Whether that's going to stop anything, I don't know. But the Supreme Court, thank God, has come down right on that one.

The other one that is really good is will have to have an opt out.

No matter where your kids go to school. If they're teaching your kids crap, that disagrees with your religion, you can have the opt-out.

Because that was -- that was the real secret here.

They were not allowing parents to opt out.

They were not notifying, or allowing them the chance to opt out.

No matter what they were teaching. Your kid had to go and listen to it.

And that is -- to me, the parental right thing, is probably the biggest one out of all of these.

For me. Because I think if we lose control of our ability to parent and raise our children the way we want, we are living in a fascist society.

And so that's -- I think good news.

Really good news. So there's a couple more, I think that are yet to come out, right?

The free speech coalition, versus Paxton.

Which is the online verification.

Of speech.

And the redistributing. And racial gerrymandering, which is Louisiana versus -- is it Callais? Those two have not come out. They come out maybe tomorrow.

JASON: We just got the free speech coalition versus Paxton.

GLENN: Okay. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Hang on. So Paxton, who was the AG of Texas, he's saying, states can require age verification for adult content.

And that will reshape online privacy and access norms. If you -- if you're selling, you know, pornography or whatever.

States can say, you have to have an access portal, that is real.

For anybody under 18.

States can make those laws.

The other side. The free speech coalition, is siding for the adult industry.

And they say, no!

It should be anonymous online access.

It's a free speech right.

Especially for adults.

But you can't do this.

I mean, this is -- if Paxton doesn't win this one. This is really bad child protection. It's greatly weakened online.

How did they decide?

JASON: You want to take a guess on what the vote was? Based off --

GLENN: Six-three.

JASON: Six-three. This is insane. But the court upholds Texas age verification law.

GLENN: Oh, thank God.

JASON: Yes. I know.

GLENN: This is really a good day for our children. Really, really a good day for our children.

Not necessarily for the size of the government. But really good for children and parents. So thank God, thank God. And also deportation. You know, may be able to see a little speed taken now, because of the Supreme Court rulings today.
