GLENN: There's a human rights activist from Canada that I really, really want you to meet.

Her name is Yasmine Mohammed. She is the author of Unveiled.

And I want to talk to her about the real battle, that the West is facing now that we're in it.

I think we're -- I think we're in for a real -- well, no. No.

Only those who have closed their eyes are going to be advised by this. We're not in for a shock. We're in for a great awakening, honestly.

Because if you haven't seen what's happening in Europe. If you haven't seen what's coming on our own streets.

If you're not reading the tea leaves. And seeing how this is going.

Hello. New York City.

You're a fool! You're a fool.

You're blind or you're just, I don't know. Incompetent. But Yasmine is here.

She has written a book that is unbelievable. It's called Unveiled: How Western Liberals in Power, Radical Islam. Yasmine, are you on with me tonight, or is it just this radio bit here? Hello, Yasmine.

YASMINE: I think just this radio bit. But I'd love to be on with you tonight, if possible.

GLENN: Well, may I suggest something different?

Are you -- can you -- do you have an open -- do you have about an hour, that you can spend with me right now? I would like to extend this.

YASMINE: Sure, let's do this. Absolutely.

GLENN: Okay. Because it's important. I want to talk to you about what's happening with Iran and everything else. But I really think that we should start with your childhood. I mean, it is -- it's remarkable the life you have lived and have lived through. And with no help from Canada, you know. Had to endure as a childhood. Can you start. You were born in Vancouver to an Egyptian mom. And a Palestinian father. And then your parents got divorced at six. You stayed with mom.

And then mom married an Egyptian. Who she was one of two wives?

Right? Did he have more than two wives?

YASMINE: Well, he could have up to four. But he only filled two slots. My mom was the second.

GLENN: Okay. So tell me about your childhood. What your childhood like?

YASMINE: So, first of all, Glenn, thank you so much for having me on. Thank you so much for having me on. Thank you so much for reading my book, and for helping to bring light to this darkness.

My childhood was unfortunately something that is quite common around all over North America, Europe, obviously the Middle East.

But we don't hear the stories because people are afraid to speak. So as you mentioned. My parents were -- you know, they grew up secular Muslims. My mom in Egypt. My dad in Gaza. And we moved to San Francisco. Got married. You know, had my sister. And then eventually moved to Canada, where their marriage fell apart. And like you mentioned, my mom married an Egyptian man. Who at this point was what people are calling an Islamist. Or a political Muslim. Basically he was just religious.

GLENN: Yes. Okay. Can we stop on this for a second. Because this is something I'm going to talk about tonight. That it's so important to understand the difference between a Muslim and an Islamist.

Islamists are wickedly dangerous, because it is political in Islam, and does not necessarily have anything to do with regular Muslims. Correct?

YASMINE: That's right. So a regular Muslim could be somebody who is open to, you know, democracy and freedom. Somebody like Dr. Zuhdi Jasser.

GLENN: Who I love.

YASMINE: Yeah, he's amazing. Yeah, he's an example. But then, of course, there's Islamists who can go anywhere from political a Islamist like Mamdani in New York, all the way to jihadis like ISIS and Hamas, et cetera.

GLENN: You would put this new -- you would put this new mayor of New York, or the new mayoral candidate that won his primary last night in the category of an Islamist?

YASMINE: I absolutely would, yes. I absolutely would.

GLENN: Why?

YASMINE: He is somebody who is extremely dangerous. He has built his entire platform on Islamist talking points.

I mean, let's just start with the fact that CAIR put $100,000 behind him. CAIR is a group whose leader said that they were happy about October 7th. So it's very clear that these people follow the same ideology and the same goals as groups like Hamas.

They're doing it in different ways.

Hamas are more like they're jihadists. They're bigger on violence.

The Islamists won't necessarily use violence. But they will use duplicitous, insidious means, like what they are doing, which is using secular laws against itself.

Which is, you know, these thinly veiled, you know, calls to -- to -- to globalize intifada.

That is a thinly veiled incitement to violence. You know, I've spoken to people who have survived intifadas in Israel. And what we're talking about here are people riding on a bus, and the bus is blowing up. People sitting, having a pizza, and then the pizza parlor gets blown up. This is what they're asking for. This is what they're saying they want to globalize.

So I don't know how thinly veiled that is. When somebody is your mayoral candidate. And calling to globalize an intifada. For that person to win, it's really disheartening. It makes me feel so sad and angry, and terrified about the future of our world.

GLENN: Okay. So let's get back to your childhood.

Sour -- you know, with this new father, riding a bike, listening to music, celebrating birthdays, swimming lessons, playing with non-Muslim friends, not happening.

YASMINE: Yeah. Absolutely. Everything became halal. Everything became forbidden.

So all of those things that you mentioned. And then, of course, the hijab was put on me, which was the head covering. I have to cover everything, except for my face and hands, up until I was 19, where my face and hands aren't covered black as well.

GLENN: Jeez.

YASMINE: So, yeah. It was a complete shock. I hated every minute of it. But, of course, I was terrified. There was nothing I could do. I was scared.

And at one point, there was just a brief moment of time, where I was able to go to a public school, because the Islam school did not yet have a high school in place.

And in that year, I was able to connect with one of my teachers, Mr. --

GLENN: Wait. Wait.

YASMINE: Okay.

GLENN: Wait. Before I get there. Tell people, when you failed at home, tell people what happened to you. With your feet and your ankles and everything else. So they have an understanding what you were going through, when you met this teacher.

YASMINE: Yeah. So you talked about not being allowed to have non-Muslim friends. That was -- you know, I cannot overstate how important that was for us to understand the difference between us and them. Muslims and non-Muslims. Good and bad. Good and evil, actually.

And so in one of my books, I had written my name as Jasmine instead of Yasmine, which I changed one letter. And when my mom and her husband saw that, they interpreted, oh, this girl wants to be Western. She wants to be Canadian. She doesn't want to be Muslim. She's preferring their way of writing her name, instead of our way of writing it. So we need to teach her a very strong lesson, so that she learns and understands that they are evil and we are good.

And so their way of doing that, was to hang me upside down in the garage and, you know, Muslims have the celebration of Eid, where they slaughter an animal every year and they hang it up in the garage. And that's what -- that was the hook they used to hang me up on.

And whipped me. And they whipped places where it would be hidden. When I was younger, it was the bottom of my feet. And later when I started wearing a hijab, and my body was covered, anyway, then they could whip more comfortably wherever they wanted.

And her husband hung me upstairs, and whipped me to the point of me passing out, because I was crying so much. And I couldn't breathe. My whole -- you know, my face, my nose. My throat. My eyes. Everything was filled with mucus.

And I woke up from my being -- from passing out, and I could hear them talking.

And my mom was -- was upset. She was freaking out. She was like, what are we going to do if you killed her?

We're going to have to explain this. Like -- she was concerned that they would be this trouble with the authorities, if they had killed me. You know what I mean?

Like, it wasn't even that they were concerned about the fact that they had killed me.

GLENN: What was that like, to hear that from your mother?

YASMINE: I mean, I can't forget it. I can't forget a lot of things that she had said and done.

It -- it's really important for me to highlight here, that she wasn't like this. She was -- nobody in her family was like this.

Nobody, where she grew up was like this. But once she became indoctrinated into this ideology, and once she married this Islamist man, she turned into this monster. Who her -- she was so zealous. And her ideology and her, you know, anti-west, pro-Islam. You know, it just possessed her mind. And that's all that mattered to her. And even her own kids were nowhere near. Like we didn't even register in her -- you know, in the things that she cared about.

All she wanted was to -- for Islam to win, and for the West to be dismantled. And if it meant that she had to, you know, beat her daughter up, to get her daughter to understand, that that's what needed to be done, then she was fine to do that. In fact, she was fine to kill me, when I took off my hijab.

I had to -- I had to escape from her and run for my life. Because she was so angry at the fact that I was taking off my hijab, and act like the infidels and act like the non-Muslims, and to be with them. You know, it's so hard to explain how somebody's mind can be so brainwashed, so indoctrinated. So possessed with an ideology. But hers was.

GLENN: So, Yasmine, my heart just breaks for you. And all of the people in this situation. Because, you know, we hear these stories. There are bad parents. Really bad parents. Really, really, really, really dark people, that have children.

But this is not the same. That's -- that's

YASMINE: No, that's right.

GLENN: Explain the difference.

YASMINE: Well, I don't -- I guess the best way for me to describe it, this was an analogy that Sam Harris made. And I thought, this was a really good way to describe it. So I'm going to borrow it from him.

But he was saying, when you have a Jehovah's Witness family, for example, and they have a little daughter, and she is going to die if she doesn't have a blood transfusion, if they refuse for their daughter to get a blood transfusion, you don't look at those parents and say, those are evil people. Those are bad people. You say, oh, my God. They have been -- they have been indoctrinated to believe that killing their daughter is the right thing to do.

That allowing their daughter to die is the correct thing to do. So you recognize that they have been possessed by this ideology. And it is making their humanity. It is suppressing their humanity.

And it's suppressing it to the point that they're willing to watch their daughter die.

And that's really the best way to describe this Islamist ideology, as the exact same thing. It's stemming from a religion. That is so toxic.

And it forces people to completely diminish their humanity and put this ideology first, regardless of who is going to be a victim.

GLENN: Okay. Let me take a break. And then I want to take you back to high school, where you meet the teacher, and what happens with the teacher? You're hearing Yasmine Mohammed.

She's a human rights activist. She's from Canada. She wrote a book. It came out right around COVID. Or I think, right around '20 -- in '19 -- 2020. And it's called Unveiled. And it is a must-read. And we are going to finish our conversation here.

I will hold her as long as we possibly can. Hold her up from her day to have this conversation because I find it absolutely fascinating, horrifying, and prescient.

It is what our next 50 years is going to be all about, if we don't wake up and stand up, right now!

GLENN: Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. I do not want to -- I don't want to -- I don't want to interrupt Yasmine's story here. But she's going to continue with me all of hour three of the podcast, coming up in just a second.

But what she is talking about, what she's about to tell you is just exactly what our problem is.

Here's a little girl that was beaten on her feet, because she wasn't wearing the hijab yet.

And so she still could be seen.

So they had to hide any kind of marks on her feet.

She found it painful to walk. I mean, that's when she was playing with, you know, non-Muslim friends. She would get beaten like that. She just told us about being hung up in the garbage and being beaten until she passed out. Then she goes to a Canadian school, and she meets a teacher, and she confesses to this teacher, what is happening in her home.

I -- you need to hear this story.

And then we're going to tie it all together, on what we're actually facing now. You know, this -- between what's happening with Israel and Iran. The killing of the Israelis. On our streets.

And then the election last night, in New York.

We must pay attention and speak the truth.
(OUT AT 9:57 AM)

GLENN: There's only been a handful of times where I've been doing an interview with a guest, and decided to chop the rest of the show and turn the rest of the show over to the guest, maybe three times I've done that in my career, in the last 25 years. And when that happens, they turn out to be some of the most compelling moments of the show in our history. You're in the midst of one of those days.

I just have scheduled for about ten minutes, Yasmine Mohammed. But as I was getting ready to go on the air, and I was really thinking about what she has to talk about, her book is so compelling. Because she lived it!

She lived a life of horror in an Islamist family. Not a Muslim family, an Islamist family. Important that you understand the difference.

You group all Muslims in this, maybe then you have Islamophobia. If you understand the difference between a Muslim and an Islamist. Which is political Islam, then you're on the right track.

And she grew up with a horror story. I'm going to have her continue her story. I will give her the rest of the hour, to share with you. This is a don't miss conversation. We begin in just a second. First, let me till about American Financing. Every now and then, life gives you a window, a moment where the market rates stabilize. And opportunities open. Even for just a little while. You're carrying high-interest debt. Things like credit cards. You're still paying mortgages from years ago at a rate that just doesn't make any sense anymore. That window, that you may need is right in front of you.

The American Financing. They can help take care of this. You can take advantage of their family-owned mortgage company. They're not a bank. Their consultants don't work for commission.

They work for you, to build a plan that helps you get out of debt, lower your monthly payments, or even pay off your home faster. The call is free, the plan is custom, and the impact is huge.

The people who have done this, just in my audience, people just like you, are saving an average of about $836 every single month.

That gives you some breathing room. Please, call American Financing. 800-906-2440.

800-906-2440.

GLENN: I want to -- I want to do one more commercial. So I just have 20 solid minutes with Jasmine, and we don't have to break again. If you'll excuse me, give me 60 more seconds. Tunnel2Towers is the sponsor for the rest of this half-hour.

You know, on a day where we just -- where New Yorkers just embraced an Islamist, a guy who believes 9/11 was America's fault. A guy who is -- is crying for global intifada, and a communist.

I remind you, that on 9/11, a ton of people died because of extremism.

And there is one group that stood up right at the beginning. Tunnel2Towers. And said, we will not forget our heroes. They will not forget the firefighters or the police officers. And then it went into the war heroes. Now it's anyone who is truly serving our nation in uniform.

And they're catastrophically injured or they're killed. These people are the ones who take care of it.

And it happens because of people just like you, for $11 a month.

America's heroes have given so much.

And together, we can say thank you in a lasting and meaningful way. Please, show your support now.

Yasmine, welcome back to the program. Thank you so much for changing your day for me. And making this switch.

YASMINE: Actually, it's a pleasure and honor to be here, Glenn. Thank you so much for having me.

GLENN: We were talking about how you were beaten as a child. Hung upside down by your feet. By your ankles. And beaten until you passed out. You were 13 years old? How old were you in that?

YASMINE: By that time, I was ten or 11 years old.

GLENN: Ten or 11. And at 13, you go to a public school for the first time. You leave the Islamic school, and you go to a public school. And you're in Vancouver Canada. And you find a sympathetic teacher. That you feel you can confide in.

How did this happen?

What did you say? And then what happened?

YASMINE: Well, it actually happened in a really interesting way.

I was writing -- I was so excited over the fact that I have so many friends for the first time in my life because I was going to a public school. There's so many people there.

And it was normally going to a -- so I was writing out a list of all of the names of my friends.

And my mom came by. And saw the list. Grabbed it from my hand. And, you know, I'm not stupid. There were no boy's names on that list.
It was all girls. And so I thought, well, this will be fine. It's only girl's names.

But, no. She was so angry that I had made friends. And she was so angry, in fact, that I was excited and happy about it. She thought, sending me to a public school with a hijab on, that I would be ostracized and bullied. And I would learn that these non-Muslims were nothing, but trouble. And I would want nothing to do with them. Instead, I made friends with them, and I was happy to be there. And that just killed her.

So she decided then, that I was no longer going to continue school. She says, that's it. You will be homeschooled from now on. She said, you're staying home, cooking and cleaning. You're not going to go to school anymore.

GLENN: Yeah.

YASMINE: And so she -- I finished the year. She couldn't just pull me out, and it was the end of the school year.

And I was just depressed. I was sad. I didn't know what to do.

And my drama teacher came up to me, and he's like, Yasmine, you're so different. Like, what's going on with you? Your light has totally dimmed.

GLENN: Where did you see him?

YASMINE: Just outside my drama class. You know, and I said, I told him what had happened. I told him, my mom is going to pull me out of school. And this is my first breath. My first, you know, moment of -- a bit of freedom. Was to come to this school. And to, you know, live a little bit of freedom from -- for a bit of my life. And now she will take it back to me, and I will be forced to be living with my -- forced to not be able to go to the school anymore.

And so we talked some more about it. And then I eventually confided about him, about all of the abuse that was going on in the home. And I shared with him everything.

Not knowing that as a teacher in a public school, it was his, you know --

GLENN: Legal responsibility.

YASMINE: You got it. So it was his legal responsibility to contact the authorities. And that's what he did.

So he contacted the police. And they contacted child services.

And then there was this whole investigation that was the three of us. And then his two children as well. So it was five kids, all of us were questioned.

And everything about him. Mind you, his daughter had gone to school, the year prior with four fingers on her face, like bruises on her face. And one of the teachers called the authorities at that point, and said, I think this child is being abused in the home.

And when they asked her, she said, no, no, no. It was an accident. These aren't fingers. Nobody -- whatever. And she denied it. But they still had a record of it.

So when I came forth with my complaints. This was the second time that child services was getting complaints from this man. And still, after we went through the whole investigative system and the whole court case and everything in the end, the judge said, this is a cultural issue. This is a -- a religious issue.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

YASMINE: He has the right to discipline his kids how he sees fit. And it's not our place to intervene. It's not the government's place to intervene.

They knew about everything, Glenn. I had told them about all of the beatings with the belts. And I told him about the hanging me upside down and everything.

And they still said, well, you know, that's just your culture. That's just your -- you know, your ethnicity. Your religion. Your race. Whatever.

You will just have to endure.

GLENN: What did this cost you?

YASMINE: Yeah. It cost me, really, my sense of ever feeling like there would ever be a way for me to escape. Because as much as they were trying to teach me and train me that non-Muslims are evil and non-Muslims are bad, I never believed it. Because my teachers.

Like Mr. Fabro.

Just people in the store, average folks. My friends. My non-Muslim friends. They were all, you know, proving that she was a liar. And that she was wrong. And that they were all good people.

And they didn't want me dead. And they didn't hate me. But when this happened with this judge, it kind of made it all come tumbling down. And I was like, you know what, maybe she's right. Maybe they do hate me. Maybe they don't want me to be safe.

Maybe they do want me to live in this misery for the rest of my life. I mean, for a 13-year-old girl to stand up against her parents in a court of law, and for you to tell that 13-year-old girl, no. You have to go back to the house where you just told us about all of the torture and punishment that you're enduring. You know, what that judge did, was he sentenced me to a life that was worse than the one I was complaining about.

Because now they were able to not only treat me so badly, but it came as humiliation. It came with a psychological torture of, now what are you going to do about it? Now who do you think you're going to complain to? You think you're going to go to the police? You think you're going to go to the child services? Nobody cares about you. This is it. And so I felt like there was nowhere to go, and I felt like they were right, that nobody cared about me.

And Allah's plan was what was going to happen, which was that I was going to remain in this house, until I married the man that they made me marry. And have a baby, to just get the job of a dutiful Muslim girl. And I saw, absolutely no escape, and that was the first time I tried to commit suicide.

GLENN: Yasmine, you are describing a Handmaid's Tale in so many ways.

YASMINE: Yes.

GLENN: And yet, the left does not seem to care.

Why?

YASMINE: Uh-huh. You know, it just -- they -- I feel such a betrayal in -- in -- I'm so disappointed. I can't really even answer that question logically. I don't think they could either, honestly.

They are just so hell-bent on this destruction, this dismantling of Western civilization.

That they're willing to lay hands, with people who chop off a girl's clitoris. Who make little girls get married, when they're just children.

Who throw gay people off of rooftops.

You know what I mean?

It's like, how can you be so hell-bent on your -- your Derrick focus, on the destruction of the west.

That you're willing to lay hands with people who are supposedly, according to what you are preaching, supposedly believes in the antithesis, you know, the complete opposing values that you believe in.

But, you know, we've seen this before. We've seen this in the Islamic Regime of Iran. That's exactly how they came into power, is they laid hands with the socialists and the communists and the progressives on the left.

And that is exactly what they did, in order to dismantle and to bring down the Shah and for the Islamic Regime of Iran to take its place. Then what did they do? As soon as they got power, all of these useful idiots, all of these lefties, they just either murdered them, they threw them in prison. They disappeared. Some of them were able to flee, until they were finished with them. After they get what they want. After they used them. And we've seen this happen over and over and over again.

History keeps repeating itself. And now it's all over the Middle East.

And now it's happening all over the west, yet again!

They've perfected their strategy. And there's no reason for us to continue to fall for this same ploy, like we've seen it happen before. We know how it ends. But there's just so much arrogance.

Everybody thinks, no, no, no. This time, it's going to be different.

This time, it will be different. We will succeed.

And they don't realize that, you know, for example, this guy, this mayor of New York, when he's making a rap song, supporting Hamas, celebrating the five leaders of Hamas. You know what I mean?

And these people voted for this guy? You know, Hamas with are the ones that are raping women.
That are killing babies. That are -- you know, who are you voting for? Who are you supporting?

And then they say things like queers for Palestine, or gays for -- for -- you know, Palestine.

What are you doing? They would murder you. They have murdered gay people, in Palestine. They still do! And how are you supporting somebody who wants you dead, like the -- it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

So I honestly can't answer that question for you.

All I can say, they must be so indoctrinated, that they're not even using the rational thinking skills at all.

They're just in their little tiny simplistic memes on TikTok. Tell them oppressor. Oppressed.

White/brown.

This is your little equation. Everything can fit into here.

Right? Good guys wear white hats. Bad guys wear black hats. And there's no gray area. There's no nuance.

It's simplistic thinking, like Sesame Street-level thinking for simplistic minds, and it unfortunately works.

And what's really sad, is it's working on our Ivy League university students.

It's not just working on your average, uneducated or young people.

GLENN: You know, I feel sometimes like just a -- I'm a self-educated man. Sometimes I feel like such a boob on how much I've missed.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: I just said to my staff, and I don't know if you ever watched me or, you know, know anything about me, Yasmine.

YASMINE: Of course, I do.

GLENN: But when I was at Fox, I said every night. And it was a prompting from God. I mean, he told me, fall on your sword on this. And so I did it every single day. That the Communists, the leftists, the Marxists, the Communists, the anarchists, and the Islamists would band together, come after Israel, to stabilize the Middle East. Then Europe. They would travel over here. It would be the end of the western world, if we didn't wake up.

And I was just mocked relentlessly for that. And we are seeing it happen in realtime. And tonight, I'm doing a show where I'm -- I'm showing you, what's happening in Europe.

I'm showing you what the -- the stage is here.

And I just said to Nathan, one of our researchers and writers.

I just said to him, a couple days ago.

I said to him, would you do me a favor, and research the end of the Shahs. Because what we know about the Shah is he was corrupt. And he was a puppet of the United States.

And that's what caused everything.

I said, but I don't really know how the collapse happened. All I know, they were listening to rock 'n' roll music.

They were dressed like Westerners.

The next thing you know, it's Sharia law.

And I said, how does it happen, so quickly?

Because that's what I feel like is coming for Europe.

And for you to just say, that's why I feel so foolish. For you to say, that this was the Islamists. And the communists. And the socialists. And all of those people working together.

How did I miss that this has been already done before?

YASMINE: Yeah. Unfortunately, it's already been done before. And it's been successful before. So that's why they keep repeating it.

And it's unfortunately successfully happening today.

Like you said, everything you said was prophetic.

It's happening right now, in real time.

We're watching it happen.

After October 7th, a lot of people were just staring in shock and horror, at how quickly everything could erupt.

At how quickly things could change.

And those of us who were paying attention were just devastated. Because we could see this happening.

Like, we were watching it.

But we -- you know, still I have to say, the -- the -- the speed of it was shocking to me.

And by October 8th, they were already celebrating paragliders and celebrating Hamas.

GLENN: I know.

YASMINE: And screaming gas the Jews. And like, it did not take a heartbeat. They did not for one second -- like, bodies are still warm, and they were already turning on the victims of October 7th. Like it was -- it was absolutely mind-blowing. They didn't even have the -- they dropped their masks completely. They didn't even pretend to care.

GLENN: You know, I said recently, that even the Germans tried to hide it.

YASMINE: Yeah.

GLENN: The Germans tried to hide their atrocities. These guys put it on Facebook and put it on, you know, X. And Instagram.

It's insane! They're proud of all of this.

YASMINE: Yep.

GLENN: I've got -- I've only got two minutes left. And then we're going to break. And then I will talk to you about some other things. Can you just tell me. You were forced to marry at 19. How did this nightmare finally end for you? Two minutes.

YASMINE: Yeah. At 19, my mom -- I'll be very quick. I'll try my best. So my mom chose a man who she said, and I quote, who is strong enough to control you. And so she chose an al-Qaeda terrorist.

GLENN: Literally?

YASMINE: And I was supposed to marry him.

GLENN: Literally.

YASMINE: Literally, he's in prison in Egypt right now for his terrorism.

He got a long story behind him. But we don't have the time for me to get into it. But obviously marrying him, you know, somebody who was -- beat me and swear at me and spit on me and covered me head to toe in black, he used to cover the windows in paper, to make sure that if the curtains moved, nobody would see me inside.

Literal prison with this man. And I had to accept being raped and beaten by him because according to the hadith, a man has that right to do that to his wife. And so who was I going to complain to? If the creator of the universe, if Allah the Almighty had sanctioned this action. Then who am I -- what am I going to do? So, of course, I ended up getting pregnant.

And I have a young daughter. And when him and my mom started talking about taking my daughter to Egypt to get female genital mutilation done on her.

That's when I had to escape.

GLENN: Yasmine, we're going to continue our conversation with you in just a second. I don't know honestly, how you can be a human being and hear this story, and not feel to the center of your being, how evil this is. And how it is only right and righteous to stand up against it. And wake your neighbors, before it's all of us.
(music)

GLENN: Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. Every month, you pay your phone bill. You don't think about it much. It's just automatic. The service is fine. Coverage is fine. It's simple. Money goes where it's supposed to. But where is that?

Here's a question: Where does your money go? Where does it live after it leaves your account?

Does it go to fund abortion lobbyists? Does it push radical agendas? Support political movements that mock your values and your country?

Because if you're still with one of the major wireless companies, you have no idea how profitable these companies are. And they take a lot of that money, and send it to places, you would never, ever want your money to go.

It's important that we build a parallel economy, and say to the phone companies, do you hear me now?

I'm tired of it. Switch to Patriot Mobile now.

They're America's only Christian wireless require. They're standing up, against all of the things that you are standing up against.

And they have the same cell towers that everybody else does, so you get the same great coverage. You will get a free month of service.

You will get better rates. Just go to PatriotMobile.com/Beck. Right now. Call them. 972PATRIOT. Stand up. 972PATRIOT. PatriotMobile.com/Beck.

STU: So much is changing, including the way we look at our history.

Keep following this big project that's right around the corner at GlennBeck.com.
(OUT AT 10:29 AM)

GLENN: You might have heard earlier today, in the broadcast, if you've missed it, grab the podcast. It's hour number two.

I talked about some of the changes that are coming in my life, in January.

And they're -- it's quite extensive.

But it's hard to lay out all at once.

But I laid out a little bit more.

And one of the things that is changing in my life is, I'm going to be very, very -- very, very focused on a few things, and trying my best to stand up and be very clear, on the things that I think are real dangers.

And Islamism is -- is probably the greatest threat to the western civilization right now.

And it is a fruition of the chalkboard that I told you about in 2009.

You know, that the Islamists and -- and radicals and communists, would all gather together.

And they would try to destabilize the world.

They would go after Israel and Europe. And then it would come to the United States. And it would be the end of the western civilization.

And we're here. If you don't see it yet. Watch tonight's special on Blaze TV.

9 o'clock. Eastern time.

It will be on my YouTube page. YouTube.com/GlennBeck on tomorrow.

But we will lay all of this out for you. Because it's really important. And then beginning next year, I will be doing some things that will empower you to take steps to be a leader in your own life, with your own friends, and your own community.

Because we're going to need citizen leadership. So listen to that at GlennBeck.com.

Also, you might want to go back. If you just joined us. And listen to this whole hour.

I spent a whole hour with Yasmine Mohammed.

She's a human rights activist. She's the author of the book called Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam. She wrote it back in 2019. It was released in 2019.

But it is so powerful, right now.

Right now, it's -- read this book.

Unveiled. How western liberals empower radical Islam.

Because it is exactly what I'm talking about.

What is coming. And exactly what we're seeing on our own streets.

She just spent an hour talking about her background. It's brought me to tears, several times. I don't know about you. But let me bring her back on. And, Yasmine, thank you for holding again. And I want to talk to you about how the war with Israel and Iran and then the United States coming in, you know, there's -- there's people that say Donald Trump is selling out, you know, all of his values. Because he's getting us into another war.

I don't think he is.

I was a little nervous about us dropping, you know, the bunker buster bombs ourselves. Because to me, that is an act of war. And worried about how they were going to retaliate. Because I think -- well, I know their sleeper cells are all over in the United States. And in Europe.

But I'm torn, because this is something that we have to take care of.

Every president since Bill Clinton says, we cannot allow them to have a nuclear bomb, but I don't know if they do or not.

But destabilization over in the Middle East is -- has not worked out to anybody's advantage. But I would like to point out, I haven't seen any of the major players in -- in the Middle East.

Egypt. Saudi Arabia. UAE. Even Syria, say anything at all about the Israelis.

I think they're all right in line with, okay. Go ahead. Chop the head off the snake here.
Do you think I'm reading that wrong?

YASMINE: Yeah. No, I think you're absolutely correct.

Of course, yes. You were talking about destabilization of the Middle East. Iran is the major funder of terrorism across the Middle East. Everybody knows it.

Syrians are victims of them. Israelis are victims of them. Everybody. Right?

Afghanis, round and round and round. Everybody is victimized by these purveyors of terrorism.

So, yeah, that's why you're not hearing anybody complaining. Because they're fine with it. They're like, yes. Please, go ahead. And cut off the head of the snake.

It is scary. Obviously. War is scary. Nobody wants war. Obviously, I was very concerned for the people of Iran. Very concerned for the people of Israel.

GLENN: Correct. Correct.

YASMINE: And dropping bombs.

GLENN: And us.

YASMINE: And there's military bases. Yeah, of course.

GLENN: All of us.

YASMINE: All of us. But, you know, sometimes it's necessary, because there's -- the Islamic regime of Iran have already shown us how incredibly evil and bloodthirsty they are, in the 50 years of their reign.

They -- they could not be more clear.

They have said it over and over and over again. How they want to see all of our destruction. And they have no problem murdering their own people. Do you think they'll have a problem murdering Americans, or -- or murdering Europeans or Israelis?
Or, you know, anybody else. They don't care. This is all for their belief system.

They have this -- this ideology, that makes them believe that what they are doing is righteous. And that's all they can stay single-mindedly focused on that.

And, you know, people think, I actually had somebody say to me once in the most naive way. He said, if Israel is annihilated, then Iran will just stop. Then it will be okay. Right?

STU: I had somebody -- I had somebody call me on the air, years ago. And say, it -- we don't have a problem with Jews.

If we just didn't have a problem with these Jews. There wouldn't be a problem with Jews. Like, oh, okay.

I know. I know. I know.

Dumb as a box of rocks. Can you take me through?

I wasn't aware of the prison that was hit. Which is not a nuclear target.

I don't think I have heard this from anyone. Can you explain this?

What happened, and why it's so significant?

YASMINE: Well, every president, where they put all of their political prisoners.

So basically anybody who is protesting against the regime, or women who are imprisoned for not wearing a hijab. Right?

So it's a prison that is full of innocent people, who are fighting against this regime.

And so for the -- one of the bombs, from Israel.

Was almost like a gift from the heavens. For it to come down.

And open the doors of that prison, so that people could escape.

It was a message to the Iranians. That we see you. We hear you.

We support you.

We acknowledge you.

We understand what you are fighting.
And we are here to back you up. And so it really filled us all with a sense of hope, that this could finally be it.

Because you have to remember, Glenn. The people of Iran have been fighting this regime since day one!

They -- they -- they have murdered hundreds of thousands of people, almost immediately, after they took power.

GLENN: I know.

YASMINE: Whether it was women refusing to wear hijabs. Or people refusing to bend the knee to their regime. Right?

And they've constantly been doing that, every single day.

Executing people. Throwing them in prison.

Disappearing them. And so the Iranian people have been fighting for so long. And it felt like a moment, where finally, they could finally be free from this regime.

GLENN: Think of the -- think of the meaning behind that. After we went back and forth and back and forth, if that's even true.

About, you know, bombing Auschwitz.

Bombing the train lines. So they couldn't -- can you imagine if we could have set those people free.

And we never did it. And now the Israelis with that experience saying, we will set these people free.

Because they know exactly what the regime is. I think that's amazing. Let me -- let me ask you this: You know, we've had regime change in the Middle East. And it never really works out really well.

YASMINE: Yes. This is true.

GLENN: However, is there a -- you know, it's because we've never found a Nelson Mandela. We've never found somebody who is strong enough that has been standing up against. I don't think the Shah is the guy.

I mean, I've never seen him before. He's not leading press conferences for the last 40 years. Saying, this has got to stop.

Who is it, that could lead that?

YASMINE: Agreed.

I think that they don't need a person, right now. They need a democracy.

And I think that's what they want. Really, I agree with you. What you're saying as well.

Because that's just going back to modern day. A lot of Iranians will disagree with me. And it's up to them to choose what they want for their country.

But the reason why the regime change has never worked in any of the other countries in the Middle East, is because the people were so different.

They were not the Iranian people. They were not the Persian people.

GLENN: Right. Right.

YASMINE: So those are people who have been colonized. They have been colonized by this regime.

This Islamic regime of Iran.

Has, you know, criminalized them, practicing their own traditions. Speaking their own language.

Killing, you know, minority groups like the Bahá'ís, this is what they do.

And so the people of Iran. It's not like they believe in the ideology.

They don't believe in the Islamic regime of Iran.

They are prisoners. They are hostages in their own country. To this regime.

Whereas, that same thing can't be said for, you know, Iraq. For example. Under Saddam Hussein.

The reason why it turned into ISIS after that was because the people believed in the religious ideology.

They were into that sectarian. The divide between Shiites and Muslims. And they didn't see a problem with ISIS taking Yazidi women as sex slaves, and burning them alive, if they refused.

They were okay with all of that because that was part of their ideology too. Right? Whereas the Iranian people do not agree with this ideology.
Most people in Iran are atheist or, you know, Jewish people. Different. All sorts of different religions.

But they are not these religious extremists. That the Islamic regime of Iran are.

Those are completely like a -- like a foreign entity that is a toxic foreign entity. That has taken over their country.

GLENN: I have so many people that I know, that, you know, maybe have stopped watching news. Or they just think it's all bad news.

And nothing ever changes.

And I'm -- I'm doing this special tonight. On what's happening in Europe.

What is happening in Europe, I think is terrifying. I -- I have told my wife and kids. I've taken my granddaughter to Paris, you know, not telling her this. You know, she's young.

But I want to take lots of pictures. Because I think that you, you know, ten years from now, it may not look anything like this.

And we may not be able to go to Europe, and be safe.

And I feel like we're in the 1930s, you know, of Europe.

And how -- how would you get the average person, who is not paying attention, or who says, you know. This is hyperbole.

And, you know, what do you know?

What would you say to people, when you -- when you show them things that are happening, not just in Europe, but in our own country, a/k/a, what happened in our streets with the free Palestine riots and what is happening all across, you know, Michigan and Minnesota. And now, with the new election of the -- the possible mayor, at least the democratic candidate that was elected, who was for the intifada.

YASMINE: Uh-huh. Yeah. So people who don't see a problem with anything are living in this privileged bubble where other people's problems are not their problem. They're not seeing it.

So when I was in France, I was -- there were areas of France, that I would go to. Where I would physically feel unsafe. And to be honest, just triggered.

Like PTSD, flare-ups. Because I'm seeing groups of Arab men, loud Arab speaking going on. There's nothing -- you look at the buildings. And it's like, this looks like a French building, but there's nothing French about this environment that I'm standing in right now.

I'm not even hearing the French language as I'm walking around this French market. All I'm hearing is Arabic.

So it is absolutely -- same thing as I was saying about Iran. And same thing about -- 57 countries around this world are Muslim majority.

How did it become that way. Right? They were colonized by these people. So what ends up happening, is like this slow frog boil.

And most people aren't going to see it, until they see it.

And once they see it, it's too late. And the example of what you're saying about what we fear in the West, is exactly that.

If you're not hearing the -- if you're not hearing it blaring in cities across the US, if you're not living in one of those cities and you're not concerned, you don't -- you have the privilege of not caring. Right?

But the people that are living in it. Let's talk about the UK, for example, like all of the pockets of, like, looting and all those areas that, you know -- it's just -- it's horrendous.

It's literally like, he doesn't know to tell you.

It's like little pockets of -- you know.

Tehran. In the middle of the United Kingdom.

GLENN: Yasmine.

YASMINE: So if you don't live there. Then people just don't have a clue.

GLENN: Thank you. Thank you for being so brave.

Thanks for being on the program and kind of letting me wreck your day, by rearranging all the things you had planned.

The name of the book is Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam. It is a must-read.

And I -- we will have you on again.

Thank you so much, Yasmine. I appreciate it.

YASMINE: Thank you so much, Glenn.
I appreciate it as well. Have a wonderful day, take care.

GLENN: You too.

Yasmine Mohammed, author of Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam. She is so very right on all of this stuff.

Are Hamas and Palestine in the Book of Revelation?!

Is Hamas mentioned in the Bible? Does the Palestinian flag have a connection to a prophecy in the Book of Revelation? Glenn Beck speaks with filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza about his new film, “The Dragon’s Prophecy,” based on the book by Jonathan Cahn, that discusses these “coincidences.”

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Dinesh, welcome to the program, how are you?

DINESH: Glenn, it's a great pleasure. Thanks for having me.

GLENN: Oh, you're welcome. I watched your film last week, and I've got to tell you, it's -- it's frightening, and really powerful.

DINESH: Well, we begin, Glenn, as you know with putting you on a motorcycle with a GoPro, and you ride with Hamas into the Kibbutz. Hamas took this footage. Remarkably, not a lot of people have seen it. The Israel government, I think was reluctant to show it, except to a handful of journalists.

But it opens my film, and it has a bit of a graphic warning. But it's ten minutes of putting you right on the scene of October 7th, 2 years ago, and the film kind of takes off from there, to give you the widest significance that engages politics, but history, archaeology. And even as you mentioned, a hint of Biblical prophecy, so that the political is wedded into the moral of the spiritual.

GLENN: So let me play a trailer here from the movie. Here it is.

VOICE: So who are the Jews? Who are the Palestinians? Whose land is it really? Could the fate of the world, of humanity itself, be somehow tied to this place?

VOICE: The nation of Israel is a resurrected nation. So what if there was going to be a resurrection of another people, an enemy people of Israel? The Bible speaks about this whole war as a dragon, representing the enemy, attacking a woman, representing Israel.

VOICE: Civilian deaths on both sides represent victories on the part of the dragon.

VOICE: Hamas burned everything within their ability to maximize the civilian casualty.

VOICE: Came back to a land that was largely barren, and we brought it back alive, and we are going to keep it!

VOICE: The devil hates the Jewish people because they represent the existence of God!

VOICE: Because without that Jewish foundation, there is no Christianity.

GLENN: So let us -- go to the Dragons Prophecy here for a second. What is the case of the Dragons Prophecy?

DINESH: Glenn, in the Book of Revelation 12, there is a depiction of a dragon representing the devil, going to war against a woman, representing Israel. And the woman is pregnant, representing the Messiah. So this is the sort of spiritual backdrop. It's a confirmation of what people sometimes say, that underneath our political fight, there is a spiritual war. But people don't often ask, who is fighting? Like who are the combatants?

And the answer is, this is a war that has been raging between sort of God and the devil from the very beginning of time. And the provocative idea in the film is that the devil cannot overthrow God, and so the -- the devil tries to find out, what is it that God cares about? Let me ruin that!

So in Genesis 1, for example, why does the serpent target Adam and Eve? Adam and Eve have nothing to the devil, but the devil goes, "I want to ruin them, because this is God's cherished creation. If I can ruin them, I can get my revenge against God."

And I think for the same reason, the devil targets the Jews and the Christians. The Jews, because they are the original chosen people. And so the devil's agenda is really simple: Drive them out of their ancestral homeland from the river to the sea. And also, put a big Islamic victory arch right on top of their holiest sight, which is the site of the Solomonic Temple.

And then, of course, the Christians are, the Bible itself, refers to Christians as like spiritual Israelites. And so the Devil is like, I hate that too. I will persecute and harass and destroy the Christians no less than the Jews."

And, look, this is not just sort of idle Biblical speculation. You can see this happening right in front of us in the world today.

GLENN: Talk to me about the meaning of the word Hamas, Palestinians, where that came from. Can you take us through that a little bit?

DINESH: Yeah, this is the genius of Jonathan Khan and his book, The Dragon Prophesy. He points out that Hamas in Arabic means something like force or strength, but in Hebrew, interestingly, the -- the word means violence and destruction. And if you -- in Hebrew, it literally says things like, "Lord, save me from the men of Hamas, or Hamas dwells in the dark places of the earth."

GLENN: I had to go to my Bible to look it up.

It does say that. It does say that. It's crazy!

DINESH: Yes. Not only that, Glenn. But the four colors of the apocalypse, mentioned in the Book of Revelation, which reflects famine, death, and destruction. The white horse, the black horse, the green horse, the red horse.

Han points out. He goes, just take a look at the Palestinian flag. It's made up of four colors. Basically, white for the white horse. Red for the red horse. Black for the black horse. Green for the green horse. And all of this, I think, within -- if there's a single connection, you can be like, "Hmm. I don't know."

But there are so many of these connections out in the film.

GLENN: So many.

DINESH: That, ultimately, it's almost like, you have to sort of -- you have to step back and reconsider if you are even understanding what's happening in front of you, in the widest and sort of deepest possible light.

GLENN: I have to tell you, I don't know about, you know -- I haven't studied this, you know, enough. I just watched the movie once.

And it's worth watching. But you will go back to Scriptures, and you will look it up. It is worth pondering. Because it shows you, where we might be right now. And the battle that we're preparing for.

Which is a really terrifying thing. But I would rather know it, so I can be prepared for it.

You also -- you know, did a lot of archaeological stuff. What stood out to you in the research that you did?

DINESH: What stood out to me, Glenn, was that for 2000 years, and even more, there are figures that appear in the Bible, Pontius Pilate, Isaiah, Jeremiah. We're going for King David. We're talking now about three -- a thousand DC.

So 3,000 years ago. And even 30 or 40 years ago, if you said, prove to me that these figures are real. Prove to me, outside the Bible, using historical or archaeological evidence, you couldn't do it. Remarkably, just in the last few decades, there are conscriptions and stones and clay seals, coming out of the ground, that are showing that these Biblical figures are real, the Bible is an account of real people and true events. So you could dispute the theology of the Bible. You can question the miracle. But the historicity of the Bible is being resoundingly affirmed.

And it's almost as if the world has become more secular and pulled away from God, God is speaking back.

But not in the thunderous language of Genesis 1. You know, in the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth. But rather, in the kind of prosaic language of science and archaeology.

GLENN: Yeah. It was really amazing. Because you don't think -- we live in our time. And so you don't think of the times that have come. David didn't exist.

You know, these stories are true. They didn't exist. And now we're finding all of the archaeological evidence, and we just -- at least I did. I just accepted, that, "Yeah. These -- the big things, we knew existed." No. No. We didn't. It's now just being proven now because of what we're finding in archaeological digs.

DINESH: Not only that, but for centuries, really for two centuries going back to the enlightenment, you have the armchair critics who would read the Bible and say, "Well, it looks to me, this was written several hundred years later."

But now we know that that can't be the case, because there are minor -- minor figures in the Bible. And, you know, the royal steward of King Josiah in, like, the 6th or 7th Century DC, and suddenly a seal comes out of the ground in Jerusalem and there's this name on the seal. Now, nobody 300 years later -- this is like asking for the names of interns who worked for Donald Trump. Hundreds of years from now. Who would possibly know their names and identities?

So this is why the Bible is being affirmed, even at the level of excruciating detail.

GLENN: The fact that everyone said that Pontius Pilate didn't exist. And the stair that has his name carved into it, 2000 years ago, that was discovered.

It's those things that you're like, "I mean, how do you deny some of this stuff now?"

I mean, it's just piling up.

DINESH: It's -- it's utterly impossible. And then we are in Jerusalem, and we go up to this place called Sheillo, in the middle part of Israel, and we find these remarkable red heifers. I've read the book about the red heifers. This has to do with the fact that in the end times, the dome of the rock will come down. The Jewish Temple -- the Solomonic Temple will be rebuilt, and some of the rabbis are actually preparing for temple services, which involve the ashes of a red heifer.

So all of this is not just interpretations. You have people in Jerusalem. And in Israel, actually preparing for this. In a practical way.

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

In fact, one of the things that they said. Let me take a break. And have you come back and answer this. One of the things they said.

Because we were talking about the red rest offers two years ago.

And they were talking about maybe making, you know, red heifers into ashes to prepare.

And Hamas said, at the time, that's one of the reasons why they -- they went after on October 7th, was because of the red heifers. And you go into that. And what they really call October 7th.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Great Reset Elites are Planning a Post-Human Future | Whitney Webb | The Glenn Beck Podcast | Ep 269

Global elites are still pushing forward with their Great Reset agenda to enslave the world and create a post-human future despite President Trump’s crushing of ESG and DEI, researcher and author Whitney Webb tells Glenn. In her long-awaited return to "The Glenn Beck Podcast," Whitney explores the intricate web of global elites, including the World Economic Forum’s downfall under Klaus Schwab and current state under Larry Fink as well as the rise of digital IDs and AI-driven governance like Albania’s “digital minister.” Whitney also discusses the tools she believes the Great Reset elites are building to control us, including the Biden-era ARPA-H program and possible surveillance tech tied to Palantir and the CIA. Further, Whitney ties the globalists’ agenda to the chaos happening in cities like Chicago and Portland and what Trump must be wary of when deploying the National Guard. Plus, as a leading expert in the financial crimes and corrupt connections of Jeffrey Epstein, Whitney weighs in on the debate over the “black book” and why the government still hasn’t released all the Epstein documents.

“HE HURT GIRLS”: High school athlete who REFUSED to play against an adult man speaks out

Frances Staudt is a high school athlete in Washington state who refused to play against a team with a trans player – clearly an adult man. She joins Glenn Beck to speak out: “In NO WAY am I feeling like I’m…‘safe and supported.’” She also joins to discuss the civil rights complaint filed on her behalf to the Department of Education.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: I want to read something from Francis Stout. She posted -- she's 16 years old. She lives in Washington State. This evening, as a young female athlete in the United States of America. I was actively silenced for standing up for my own safety and belief.

During the Tumwater High School girl's basketball game on February 6, 2025, a biological male from Shelton High School, opposing team was brutalizing my teammates, using his biological -- his biological advantage, clearly and intentionally overpowering his competition.

I made the decision to sit out one of my very last basketball games of the season because I refuse now and forever to compete against any biological sport that I play.

I was incredibly distraught at the fact that nobody would step in on our behalf, including the staff, coaches, referees, and parents from both sides.

This is due to the sheer fact that in our society, we have been pushed to be silent. And bow down to the demands to accept what we know to be untrue.

When I became visibly upset and angry.

I was met with allegations of discrimination, as well as threats made by other players, and a grown man who was tasked with serving my school district.

The principal and athletic director who stood in front of parents, and the students claiming to care about our students' bodies, their beliefs, and feelings, but they certainly did not care about mine tonight. This is far from over.

It has a fueled a passion in me, to speak out and go against the wrongdoing that is still happening to female athletes in this great country.

Isn't it ironic that just yesterday, national girls in Women's Sports Day was the day that President Trump signed the no men in women's sports executive order. And here I am, the very next day, having to deal with such an injustice.

That has caused so much emotional distress in my life. I will never not stand up for myself, or my ability to speak out and protect my safety, as a female athlete. Sixteen years old from Tumwater, Washington. It's Francis Stout.

Hello, Francis.

FRANCIS: Hello. Thank you so much for having me on the show. It's not lost on me, the significance of speaking with you today.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh, thank you. So, Francis, you were -- you were not notified. Nobody was notified. You just go to this game. And you see somebody who you describe as obviously a male.

FRANCIS: Yes.

GLENN: Why do you say that? And tell me the intimidation tactics, or the brutalization tactics, if you will, that you felt he was doing.

FRANCIS: Well, I feel it is obvious from any stand, where he would have stood out on the court. He was warming up and stretching, looking around, dancing with the girls on his team.

It is obvious there's clear biological differences between girls and boys.

GLENN: Okay. Yeah.

FRANCIS: And you could see just by everything. And lots of -- there's a lot of just roughness on the court. And pushing girls down.

And nothing that a normal girl on my team or the other team, would have really been able to do.

Very harsh and just, it was a very clear difference.

GLENN: So you go and say, I will sit this game out. Or I can't play. Because I don't feel safe on the court. Is that correct?

FRANCIS: Yes, that's correct.

GLENN: What was the response at the time?

FRANCIS: At the time, people looked and, "oh, whatever." Just asked me, "Oh, are you sure you don't want to play? It's not that big of a deal." I got told by a lot of people, "It isn't that big of a deal, it doesn't matter. Nothing is going to happen, and you're just looking for attention."

GLENN: Jeez.

FRANCIS: Every sort of thing you could hear from people.

GLENN: Right.

FRANCIS: But it was only after I got upset after seeing him hurt girls on my team, and also take away from my ability to play because I feared for my own safety, that people really started having issues.

GLENN: Yeah. And what -- when you got upset, what happened?

FRANCIS: So I went and tried to talk to the principal of Tumwater, Zach Shuderman (phonetic), and I told him, "This is wrong. Why are you not protecting me and my rights to play, and my own sport? And why are you not putting a stop to this? It's clearly wrong. It is a violation of my own privacy and safety, that you have told every single person at that school, that you care about."

But you -- he did absolutely nothing to help me. He told me, "That it was discrimination against the boy -- and the man, actually, eighteen years old."

GLENN: That's what he said?

He said, "The man?"

FRANCIS: Yes. He said -- he said, "I'm not going to misgender, quote, unquote, this individual."

GLENN: Hmm. Okay.

He's also said, and maybe it's not the principal, maybe it's the superintendent, "As a district, we remain committed to fostering an inclusive environment where all students feel safe, supported, and valued."

Do you feel safe, supported, or valued?

FRANCIS: That is a very easy answer: Absolutely not.

There is -- in no way, am I feeling like I'm supported. I have had -- when I was 15 years old, the 18-year-old man was in my own locker room.

That is quite the opposite of safe and supported, that I should be able to feel.

There's a man -- or, boy in the girl's locker room right now at Tumwater High School that they're still doing nothing about, telling girls that they can go somewhere else to change, if they feel uncomfortable. They only care about a certain protected class, and it clearly is not the girls who just want their own privacy and safety.

GLENN: So now, a lawsuit has been lodged against you. The Foundation against Intolerance and Racism filed a civil rights complaint, to the Department of Education.

FRANCIS: Yes, on our behalf.

GLENN: On your behalf.

FRANCIS: It was filed.

GLENN: Thank God. I read that. How is that possible? On your behalf.

FRANCIS: However -- yeah, I was investigated, however, by the WIAA in the Tumwater School District for harassment and bullying for, quote, unquote, misgendering the man, saying that he was a man, who was apparently bullying and harassment. And that is what happened.

I -- but myself and my family was the one who filed the complaint.

GLENN: Well, I'm -- I'm glad. Because I was having a hard time understanding how our DOJ was -- was not standing up for your civil rights on this, especially since the president has made it very clear.

FRANCIS: Yes.

GLENN: Can you give me any update on where this stands, and where this is headed?

FRANCIS: So we're still waiting to hear back. We filed it a little bit ago. And still waiting for news. We have hope, that it will be in our favor. And I am very much looking to seeing where it can take us. And, yeah, I am hoping that it will be all good.

GLENN: Francis, I have to tell you, you give me an awful lot of hope.

FRANCIS: Thank you.

GLENN: I think we treat our children as little kids. You know, you hit 16 years old, back in the old days, back in the old days, I mean, older than me -- you know, our Founders were in their 20s and 30s, you know. Thomas Jefferson I think was 30.

They were expected to do more. And we just say, "Oh, your childhood. Your childhood?

Yeah, there is something about keeping childhood sacred, and keeping childhood as safe as possible. But you are a great example of what 16-year-olds should be like. You should know what your rights are, what your responsibilities are. Why you believe certain things that you do, if you're passionate about them. Obviously, you're passionate about this.

And make the case. You give me an awful lot of hope, Francis.

FRANCIS: I very much appreciate that. While I can not tell you how much I -- as I mentioned in my speech last Saturday, this is the Turning Point of America, and I was an incredible fan of Charlie Kirk. I think he was an amazing man, and I think he's given me a voice to speak out.

And given me courage. And I think that it's important, although we're young, to speak up for what we believe in.

It's important I have those values. And still by my family as well. And my parents.

And I think it's very important, he did not die in vain. I think that we need to make our country proud, and we are going to be the future of America. And we need to start acting like that. And we need to speak up for what we believe in, and what is right. And know good and evil.

GLENN: Do you have any friends in Washington state. Because I grew up in Washington State.

I know what it's like. Your family. Is it just you guys? Are you just alone in Washington State?

Because you're amazing. But it --

FRANCIS: Thank you.

GLENN: But it must not be very popular to be you and your family in Washington State.

FRANCIS: Well, no. You see all around, there's people who disagree.

But we have a close group. It really shows you, who your close friends are. And who is there for you.

But it is definitely not the majority in Washington State, of what me and my family believe in.

But this isn't over. And I think that we can make a change. And I think people need to have their eyes opened. And realize, that there's clearly something wrong. And I think people can be very oblivious to the fact of that.

But there's -- it is a pretty small majority, especially in Washington State, as you can probably --

GLENN: Oh, yeah, I know it quite well.

The -- do you have any friends that disagree with you, that are still standing with you as a friend?

FRANCIS: I don't really have many friends who have told me, they disagree. I've been called a lot of names. I've lost a lot of friends over it.

But I don't have many friends who disagree with.

I think it's really sad, because they've been told by so many people, that they are right. And people who disagree with them, are automatically horrible people.

And especially telling people that, oh, this isn't happening. Kids are believing him, and parents are believing him.

And so they think that I'm just wrong and looking for attention. And I've been called for -- just the other day. I got called a transphobe in the hallway by this kid that I used to be friends with. And said hi to every day.

And I walked by. And got yelled at. And it's sad. It really is.

GLENN: Yeah. You sound smart enough to know, there are easier ways to get attention.

Right?

FRANCIS: Exactly. Yes.

GLENN: Thank you so much for everything you're doing.

Please keep me informed.

Keep us up-to-date. We want to follow the story.

If there's anywhere we can help. Just know you're not alone. And it will be people like you, that will be remembered some day.

It's the people who did the things they didn't necessarily want to do, that didn't make them possible. In fact, made them a target. You, but they had -- they had the faith in go bigger than themselves, they knew they had a responsibility. And they stood.

Those are the kinds of people that actually make it into the history books. Not the one that walked through the crowd, as you were walking the lie, who said, you're a transphobe.

That person is never going to be remembered in history. You will be. So thank you. Keep it up.

FRANCIS: We truly appreciate that. And it means more than you know. From the bottom of our heart. I appreciate this opportunity, in speaking to you. And I will not forget what you said. That means a lot.

GLENN: Thanks a lot, Francis. God bless you.

The enemy Israel faces today threatens US tomorrow

There is a grave danger brewing in America, Glenn Beck warns, and it revolves around the Israel/Hamas debate. So, he sets the record straight on where he stands and why he believes the survival of Western civilization is on the line: "The enemy that Israel is currently facing today will be the enemy that the free world will face tomorrow."

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: I want you to really hear me carefully.

There is a grave, the brave danger that is building.

And I want to talk toy about it. I saw it last night, with my own eyes. In a very small number.

I want to make this really clear. Very small number of students. I saw it last night. And I want to talk to you about it. But, first, let me set it up with this. So Christopher Rufo wrote: On the right, many supporters of Israel -- I think that would be you and me. Many supporters of Israel -- because I'm a supporter -- including prominent Republican politicians argue that America has a theological duty to support the Jewish state. Now, I think personally for me, I feel that's true. But what does that mean, exactly? I'll get into it, in a minute. Their view is based on a complex interpretation of Bible prophecy. As a Catholic, I find it mystifying. As a political analyst, I find it unconvincing. Analyst, sorry.

The other supporters would like to shut down critical analysis of the war altogether. Equating criticism of Israel, with anti-Semitism and suggesting those who question the wisdom of America's support should be welcome in polite society. I want you to know, at the outset, absolutely wrong.

Because you disagree with Israel, does not make you an anti-Semite. It doesn't. It doesn't.

It makes you a thinking human being, honestly. These moves might have been effective in the past, but not so much anymore.

Instead of theological or shame-based approaches, friends of Israel must frame their arguments in terms of national interest.

One hundred percent right! One hundred percent right!

We need to understand our national interests. So hear me out on this: So you know, I have received the defender of Israel award from Benjamin Netanyahu years ago. I was just named by the Jerusalem post as the number one Christian supporter of Israel in America.

So I'm kind of known as -- I guess as a Zionist. Okay?

I believe that Israel has a right to exist, and the Jewish people have a right to live. Somehow or another, you get awards for saying that.

But I want you to understand something. My support is not blind loyalty, nor is it anything that is -- makes me Israel first.

It doesn't. God first, America second. Israel is in the pile of everything else. Okay?

My first citizenship, is to the kingdom of Christ. My second citizenship, is to America. I will do nothing that will violate my citizenship, my passport to the kingdom of God.

And I certainly won't violate things for my first citizenship, to save my second citizenship. But that's the rank of my citizenship. God first, America, right behind it. And the earthly sense, America first, okay?

No loyalty to the government of Israel. In fact, there's many things I don't like about the government of Israel. But you know what, I'm not a citizen. I don't vote. And I don't have to worry about their laws.

When it comes to war, I want nothing to do with that foreign war. Or, quite honestly, almost any foreign war. Pragmatism I'm tired of paying for it. I'm tired of our blood being shed. I want nothing to do. That's not my support of Israel or the Jewish people. It -- what is required when we talk about these things, is Israel's -- Israel's existence is not just about their national survival. It is about the survival of Western civilization itself.

It is the only -- lone beacon in the Middle East, that is standing against radical Islam. They're the only ones. They're the number one target of radical Islam.

Now, look at what's happening in the Middle East right now. Those countries that we used to think of as having real radical ties, now Saudi Arabia, they're actually saying, you know what, we can actually co-exist.

That's what's necessary. Coexistence in the Middle East. As long as we have a reason -- as long as we believe we each have a reason to live, and we have a right to live, we can solve any problem. We can solve any problem.

They are facing Islamist evil. And that evil is the same evil that wishes to dismantle our civilization and our country! And it's happening in our own country. My support is not rooted in politics. It is rooted in something simpler and older than politics. A people's moral and historic right to their homeland and to their right to live in peace. That's it. And I would say that to anybody. If the Gazans wanted their own land and say, because this is a two-state solution. That's been offered to them, over and over and over again.

But it wasn't river to the sea. Which is the definition of wipeout all of the Jews. No Jews in this land. Okay?

You want to share? I'm totally fine with that. But I can't -- I couldn't. We wouldn't put up with a neighbor who is constantly saying and trying to kill you.

So when it comes to politics. I believe Israel has a right to defense herself against those who openly, repeatedly vow her destruction. But I'm not going to fight that.

I don't agree with everything that Israel has done. But what difference does that make? Because I'm not making for our dollars or our blood to be spent. I just say, "Everybody has a right to live."

But let me make it personal, if -- if somebody told me, over and over and over and over again, that they wanted to kill me and my entire family, that I didn't have a right to exist. That I was the source of all evil in the world, and then acted on that threat, over and over again. Do you believe that I would have a right to defend myself? If I couldn't get anybody in the world to listen and stand with me, and I had to do it all myself, would I have a right to -- to take action in response to them?

Remember, I believe nature's law gives us a lot of stuff.

If I walk into a bear cave and mama and the cubs are in there, I think the bear has a right to maul me to death. Because it senses trouble. Now, that's an animal, but if I go in and I'm hunting those cubs, Mom does have a right to kill me.

But that would assume that she had any kind of intellect. Humans have intellect.

If Hamas were Canada and we were Israel.

And Hamas, Canada, did to us, what we did to Israel, answer this question honestly: Would there be a single building left standing north of our border today?

If they came and raped the same percentage. Killed, slaughtered. Set our babies on fire, do you think that we wouldn't have crippled Canada right now?

And no matter what anybody said, you think we would stop until that threat stopped!

That's not a question of morality. That's just the truth. All people, everybody has a God-given right to protect themselves, period. And Israel is doing that, in the way they feel is right. You can argue with that. And you can disagree vehemently with the way they're fighting the war. My support for Israel's right to finish the fight against Hamas, comes after 80 years of rejected peace offerings.

Two failed state solutions.

Hamas has not hidden its mission. Hamas says, it's the eradication of Israel.

That's not a political agreement. That's not a reasonable disagreement. In my book, it's not a land dispute.

That's -- that's a nihilist.

That's people who -- who -- who are actually calling for genocide, and proudly calling for wiping out of all the Jews.

Okay. Do I believe that America should be in that fight? No. Do believe that that should be in our national interest? Yes.

To support the people who are standing up against what will be our, possibly, last foreign war, as Jefferson said. Islamists believe, if you listen to what is being said in Dearborn, they are planning on Sharia law here in America.

That is -- that will wipe everything of the West out, and they are moving in to our countries.

I have no problem with Muslims. I have a big problem with Islamists, and there's a huge difference. What we saw on October 7th was the face of evil. Women and children slaughtered. And beyond that, even the Nazis tried to hide it. Okay? The Nazis, they knew the rest of the world would not approve. These people were proud of it. We've played the tapes for you. Babies burned alive. Innocent people raped. Dragged through the streets.

And now, we see people defending that evil, in our own country!

That is nothing short of a moral collapse! That is probably the greatest danger that we have, is this -- is this ideology that says, "If I disagree with you, I can kill you."

The -- the confusion of, I disagree with Israel the way they're fighting a war, and so I'm going to say, "I support Hamas, because the Jews are always wrong. The Jews are lying. And I don't believe any of those videotapes because it was probably Jewish propaganda." That's moral collapse. If the chants in the street were Hamas, give up the hostages, don't ever do anything for that again. And Israel, for the love of Pete, stop the bombing, I would be totally cool. Totally cool.

Because that's reasonable. But that's not what we hear. We hear open sympathy for genocidal hatred. That is a chasm that has opened up in our society, and it's not just a chasm opening up, you know, from decency, but from humanity itself. And that's where the danger lies. The same hatred that we saw in the 1930s, that I predicted would happen again in about 2008, that we would see it in our vetoes. That hatred is taking root here, in Dearborn, in Minnesota, in London, in Paris.

And not as horror, but heroism. And if we're not vigilant, the enemy that Israel is currently facing today, will be the enemy that the free world will face tomorrow.

That's not about politics. That is truth. It's not -- it's -- it's about having the courage to call evil by its name. And say, that doesn't happen. Never again, not in the future. That doesn't happen.

You don't have to open a Bible to believe or understand this. You don't. But if you do, if you're a believer, then the issue cuts much, much deeper. And I opened an op-ed on this. And I will be publishing on GlennBeck.com, that goes deeper into that. But I don't expect you to believe the Bible or believe what I believe. I believe it's a very strong case, good versus evil here. Or right versus wrong, if that's the way you want to phrase it.

And national interests. If you look at what the world is headed towards. This -- this is not just about Israel's right to exist.

This is about whether we still know the difference between right and wrong. Good and evil.

Life and death cults.

It's about, do we have the courage to stand for the principles, that God outlined?

And that's not, you're going to inherit the land, or any of that crap. The principles of, you can live, I believe you have a right because you just like me, are a beloved child of God. That's what it is. And if we can't -- if we don't have the courage to make the case and -- and we're trying to convince people, just to blindly follow, because God says. God expects to us kick into reason. God expects us to think things through. And God expects us to disagree. And if we can't do those things, if we won't do those things, then the question is not will Israel survive?

The question is: Will we survive?
