RFK Jr. just RETURNED common sense to the medical field

Under RFK Jr., the Department of Health and Human Services is now recommending against WPATH’s pro-trans “gender affirming care” guidelines. “Welcome to the return of common sense in medicine,” Glenn Beck says. Glenn discusses the game-changing policy change and how America’s doctors got here in the first place.

GLENN: I've got some good news. There's a lot of good news today.

This one comes from the HHS. There's a huge victory announced yesterday.

I will tell you here in just a second. First, let me tell you about our sponsor. It's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

They're providing opportunity for limited interruption this half-hour.

Israel is still under attack in villages and in cities, places where families are still picking up the terror of October 7th.

I mean, it's just -- it's so horrible.

Thousands of the most vulnerable, the elderly, the single moms, the children with no safety nets. When the missiles fall or food runs out, they don't have anybody, but you.

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground, bringing food, medicine, and hope to those precious souls. And the money we send them, provides survival package, food, boxes, blankets. Firewood. Basic things that mean everything.

God blesses those who bless his people. And as Christians, we should be in the people rushing to the front of the line, to help our spiritual brothers and sisters out, right?

Your gift of $45 will help support their life-saving work by helping provide food, shelter, and much, much more. The Bible says, I will bless those, who will bless you.

Supporting IFCJ is a spiritual stand. It is showing up for God's people when it counts. So please call 888-488-IFCJ. That's (888)488-4325.

Or go to IFCJ.org. IFCJ.org.

All right. Let me give you some good news here. This is a post that came from X yesterday.

Came from the Health and Human Services department.

They -- let me just read them to you.

HHS sent a letter to health care providers. Risk managers. And state medical boards. Urging immediate updates to treatment protocols for minors with gender dysphoria. Based on HHS comprehensive review that found puberty blockers, cross sex hormones, and surgeries have very weak evidence of benefit, but carry risk of significant harms, including sterilization.

Providers should no longer rely on discredited guidelines that promote these dangerous interventions for children and adolescents based on ideology and not evidence.

Wow!

Welcome to the return of common sense in medicine!

Now, RFK wrote that providers should avoid relying on the world professional health association for transgender health. That's WPATH. Remember?

We talked about that years ago when it first started coming out.

Ask it was insanity. So now health care providers should not rely on that from HHS.

It was one year ago, we did a special on -- exposing them for being ideological fraudsters.

WPATH.

And, you know, they were doing -- I mean, this is Frankenstein. This is Frankenstein-like experiments on children and the mentally ill. All done with the support of the medical community, in the name of science and gender-affirming care. It's over.

Our doctors took them seriously. They shouldn't have.

Now, here's what CNN said. Kennedy's letter warns providers to avoid relying on guidelines for the World Professional Association of Transgender Health on care, and transgender and diverse people.

These and other guidelines based on so-called gender-affirming model of care should not be relied upon for the harm of our children any further, the letter says.

Good, good.

Kennedy says, it's time for our doctors to update now all the protocols.

Amen.

This is big news.

This is the first big step, pulling us out of this death cult.

I mean, when you are chemically castrating our children in America. And the doctors are calling that a good step forward! That's a spiritual disease.

And a lot of people voted for Donald Trump. Because they wanted to see an end to this.

And I hope this means, that there's an end to it. Dr. Oz is working on this too, again from CNN.

The centers for Medicare and Medicaid services, also announced Wednesday.

That was yesterday. It was launching an oversight initiative into hospitals that perform experimental sex trait modification procedures on children.

Administrator Dr. Oz said CMS will not turn a blind eye to the procedures that lack a solid foundation of evidence and may result in life-long harm.

Good! We're not turning a blind eye to the children anymore. And we're saying, this is wrong to do.

And we're taking the right steps. Now, all of this can be changed.

In the next election. I mean, I hope not. But so much can change between now and 2028 when we elect another president. But I hope we start to see real improvement.

I know that a majority of Americans, for the first time. Can you tell me, when? Stu. We looked this up.

When Americans said, we're on the right track, wrong track. And we looked at it and we were like, wait. We haven't thought we were on the right track since when? Remember, it was a long time.

And for the first time, this is the majority. This is over 50 percent.

STU: That's not -- to be clear, not in every poll. That is a poll that came out that showed that.

Like the Gallup polls are very much in the negative.

GLENN: Well, let me rain on your parade too.

Yeah. Those pants do make your butt look fat. I mean, what is that?

STU: I would say, it's up a little bit. Even in the polls that show it's still negative.

It's going in the right direction.

GLENN: In the right direction.

STU: So that's good. That's a pop.

I'm glad that we are maybe catching up to Europe on this one. It's great to see.

GLENN: Well, we want to be more like Europe, right? I mean, jeez.

STU: In this one particular incident, oddly, we do.

They figure this out before us. Usually they're far to the left of us, and we're always tracking toward their left-wing positions.

It seems like they have actually woken up before us. Which is, I think stunning. But I'm positive -- I'm glad to see that -- certainly, you know, Trump is not on this bandwagon. And now that he's in office, he can start reversing this kind of nonsense.

GLENN: You know what is amazing is, you know, we've had so many discussions on this. How many of them have actually been based in science?

Most of them are shouting you're a hatemonger. Or you just want to kill people.

Or you just hate transgender, all that crap. Have you ever heard of the Dunning–Kruger effect?

STU: Yes. Yes. I have.

GLENN: You know what it is?

STU: Yeah, you probably can help me with a better definition. But my remembrance of it is people who know very little about a topic, tend to be the most confident at the beginning.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: And then it kind of goes way down their confidence, as they learn more. And only when they become experts, do they kind of say, hey. You know, there's a lot of nuance in the way they speak.

GLENN: Correct. Correct.

And it's -- it carries another part to it. And my -- my who can't understand mother knew this. I mean, I think all of our grandmothers knew this. Stupid people just don't know that they're stupid. They have no idea that they're stupid.

STU: That's better. That's a better explanation.

GLENN: And we are living on the Dunning–Kruger.

Or we're living under the Freddy Krueger effect.

I don't know which our society is embracing, but stupid people just don't know they're stupid.

And they get just a little bit -- and I'm not talking about, oh, I forgot to cancel my free trial stupid.

I mean, butt stupid. And when you're stupid, you feel like a genius.

And when you know a lot, you feel like an imposter.

STU: Yeah. That's totally -- right.

GLENN: Right.

STU: I'm sure, did you notice this, Glenn, sometimes when you're out at a party or something. And you are talking to people.

And they probably come toy. And bring up topics they think I talk about on the air. They know who you are.

They'll bring up something about, I don't know. The Great Reset.

GLENN: Whatever.

STU: Yeah. Progressivism.

And they'll say things. And you're like, oh. Yeah.

No. Sure.

Well, I mean, that's not exactly it.

But I know what you're saying. And it's because you've studied it for a long time. They probably haven't.

They've heard bits and pieces. Maybe seen a little bit on social media. But a lot of times, what carries with that is certainty. Right? They've read a couple of things on social media. They're sure they're right. They bring it to you.

And you're like, you know, sure, I know what you're saying.

GLENN: You know, let me address this on the air. Where I can tell you apart.

What if you're here together, at a party.

No. That is absolutely true.

You remember what I said, everybody was making fun of me.

Glenn Beck was on an apology tour when I left Fox.

You do a lot of thinking. When you go from one of the most, you know, beloved people.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Visible people. To -- to a fat person, that, you know, is -- you know, is now hated by most people.

You know, you tend to think a lot.

STU: Sure.

GLENN: So what I'm saying -- and everything.

What I was saying at the time was, you know, I was so certain of things. And that doesn't mean that I was wrong.

It was just that my approach. I was so certain of things. And the only thing I'm certain of now, is that I'm not certain of anything.

You know what I mean?

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And that's kind of the mantra of my life now. And it's really hard to do this job, and say that.

But it is -- it is what I believe. The only thing I'm truly certain of, is I'm not certain of figure.

STU: Right. And that doesn't mean you don't try to get to the truth. It means that you're constantly reexamining what you believe.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: I think that's where some of the social media world, in this era of media has -- has kind of lost the plot.

In that, you should constantly be pushing yourself. Right?

When you -- when you think you know something, you should constantly be pushing yourself the other direction, just to make sure, get the best arguments for the other side.

You know, there are policies that I agree with. And I want to hear the best policy arguments from the other side, to see if my opinion should change.

You should be thinking that way.

Even, you know, you're not necessarily going to be changing your viewpoint all the time.

You should be thinking, how -- not only to see if you're right.

But to strengthen your argument for what you currently believe.

GLENN: You know, I did an interview with Ro Khanna, last weekend on the podcast.

It was very good.

I don't really agree with him much on anything.

Except our fundamental principles of our country. And what we're founded on.

He's a big government guy. And everything else.

And a guy probably going to run for president.

That's why I did the interview.

You should know where he stands. Et cetera, et cetera.

Basil probably be one of the guys running for president in the democratic party.

And I want you to be informed on him.

So I do the interview.

And I read all of these leftist responses on this.

And saying, look.

You know, Ro Khanna. Can even get on Glenn Beck's Program because he's so reasonable. Well, yeah. That is true. I do like to have reasonable people on. But I really don't have a problem talking to anybody.

It's -- it's not that they're changing -- it's that night Ro Khanna changed me.

I'm open to talk to people I disagree with.

STU: Sure.

GLENN: But the left generally isn't.

You know, I'm open to talking to people.

If you can have a conversation.

If you enter the conversation with absolute certainty, well, then, I can't have a conversation with you.

Because all that it's going to end up being is a bash fest.

Well, you're just too stupid to understand.

Well, who is the stupid one, honestly?

This is where it gets uncomfortable.

Statistically speaking, someone in the room here is the dumbest person. And since it's just you and me, I've got some bad news for you.

You know, and -- and nobody -- nobody -- you know, everybody thinks that way.

And they don't think. Well, maybe -- hang on. Let me listen.

Because I might learn something from somebody.

And, you know, look at the arrogance on the doctors, going back to the original story. Which brought this up.

The doctors just started touting things they didn't actually know.

Because the science did not back it up.

Not enough science had been done.

The ones that weren't arrogant, were the ones honestly in Sweden. And the -- the Netherlands.

That actually looked at the science. They were doing it.

And then they looked at the science. And they looked at the studies. And they said, you know what, we have to stop this.

Because it's not right. It's not what we thought it was. But we continued to just double down and double down.

And it was without any information. This is why I asked earlier today.

What was I talking about?

Oh, we were talking about the new approach by the State Department.

Which Marco Rubio is just killing it. And they -- they are starting to pull the out these. You know, they've got a -- you know, a Substack.

And I read one of them, at the beginning of the podcast today.

And it was really, really amazing, that it was coming from our State Department.

And it should be something that everybody agrees with.

And, quite honestly, every Democrat, I know, would agree with it.

Would have agreed with it. But now that it's coming from the Trump administration, they won't agree with anything.

And I said, you know, I know why I've changed. I've changed my mind on a lot of things.

And I am a different person than I was 20 years ago. And I think that's good.

But I don't think Democrats are the same people either.

And what I would like to know, is what new information did you get, that has allowed you to abandon the freedom of speech, freedom of religion.

All of that?

What got you there?

What got you from a place, that these endless wars don't work, to, yeah. We've got to go in and kick some ass in Ukraine.

And we have to topple Putin.

What changed?

Because I'm not there.

And I would like to just say, I would like to meet you in the same room here, because this is the room. I always thought you were wrong on. You were right!

But now, you've changed! I really want to know, what new information came to you, that made you go, you know. I've been wrong all these years.

You know, what -- what new information came your way, that said, drag shows, in first grade is good for children.

What specifics?

What new information?

Because you would have said, anybody who did that, should have been arrested. It doesn't belong with first graders.

It doesn't matter with the fourth grade. We shouldn't be doing these things that we're doing with our children.

I'm still at that place.

I didn't change on that. I'm still there.

But you did change, if you're on the other side, if you're an average Democrat.

Please, specifically tell me, why?

What new information?

Those are conversations, I think, Americans would love to hear.

Instead of just calling each other names. Tell me, what new information.

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm wrong.

I don't think I am, but maybe I am. So give me that new information that you got. And don't make it about Trump, and I won't make it about Biden.

How is that?

The Globalist Elites' Dystopian Plan for YOUR Future | Glenn Beck Chalkboard Breakdown

There are competing visions for the future of America which are currently in totally different directions. If the globalist elites have their way, the United States will slide into a mass surveillance technocracy where freedoms are eroded and control is fully centralized. Glenn Beck heads to the chalkboard to break down exactly what their goal is and why we need to hold the line against these ominous forces.

Barack & Michelle tried to END divorce rumors. It DIDN'T go well

Former president Barack Obama recently joined his wife Michelle Obama and her brother on their podcast to finally put the divorce rumors to rest … but it didn’t exactly work. Glenn Beck and Pat Gray review the awkward footage, including a kiss that could compete for “most awkward TV kiss in history.”

GLENN: Now, let me -- let me take you to some place. I think kind of entertaining.

Michelle Obama has a podcast. Who knew?

She does it with her brother. Who knew? It's -- you know, I mean, it's so -- it's a podcast with two brothers. Right?

And -- and it -- they wanted to address the rumors, that they're getting a divorce. And this thing seems so staged.

I want you to -- listen to this awkward exchange on the podcast.

Cut one please.

VOICE: Wait, you guys like each other.

MICHELLE: Oh, yeah. The rumor mill. It's my husband, y'all! Now, don't start.

OBAMA: It's good to be back. It was touch-and-go for a while.

VOICE: It's so nice to have you both in the same room today.

OBAMA: I know. I know.

MICHELLE: I know, because when we aren't, folks things we're divorced. There hasn't been one moment in our marriage, where I thought about quitting my man.

And we've had some really hard times. We've had a lot of fun times. A lot of adventures. And I have become a better person because of the man I'm married to.

VOICE: Okay. Don't make me cry.

PAT: Aw.

GLENN: I believed her. Now, this is just so hokey.

VOICE: And welcome to IMO.

MICHELLE: Get you all teared up. See, but this is why I can't -- see, you can take the hard stuff, but when I start talking about the sweet stuff, you're like, stop. No, I can't do it.

VOICE: I love it. I'm enjoying it.

MICHELLE: But thank you, honey, for being on our show. Thank you for making the time. We had a great --

VOICE: Of course, I've been listening.

PAT: What? No!

GLENN: They're not doing good. They're not doing good.

Okay. And then there was this at the beginning. And some people say, this was very awkward. Some people say, no. It was very nice.

When he walks in the room, he gives her a hug and a kiss. Watch.

Gives her a little peck on the cheek.

PAT: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

GLENN: Does that --

PAT: Does that look like they're totally into each other?

GLENN: Well, I give my wife a peck on the cheek, if she walks into a room.

PAT: Do you? If you haven't seen her in months and it seems like they haven't, would you kiss her on the cheek? Probably not.

GLENN: No, that's a little different. That would be a little different. But I wouldn't make our first seeing of each other on television.

PAT: Yeah, right, that's true. That's true.

GLENN: But, you know, in listening to the staff talk about this. And they were like, it was a really uncomfortable -- okay.

Well, maybe.

PAT: I think it was a little uncomfortable.

GLENN: It was a little uncomfortable.

It's still, maybe. Maybe.

But I don't think that rivals -- and I can't decide which is the worst, most uncomfortable kiss.

Let me roll you back into the time machine, to Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley. Do you remember this kiss?
(applauding)

GLENN: He turns away, immediately away from the camera. Because he's like.

PAT: He was about to vomit. Yeah.

GLENN: It was so awkward. When that happened, all of us went, oh, my gosh. He has only kissed little boys. What are we doing? What is happening?

He doesn't like women, what is happening?

And then there's the other one that sticks out in my mind of -- and I'm not sure which is worse. The Lisa Marie or the Tipper in Al Gore.

VOICE: The kiss. The famous exchange during the 2000 democratic convention was to some lovely, to others icky.
(laughter)

GLENN: That's an ABC reporter. To some lovely, others icky.

And it really was. And it was -- I believe his global warming stuff more than that kiss.
(laughter)
And you know where I stand on global warming.

That was the most awkward kiss I think ever on television!

PAT: Yeah. It was pretty bad. Pretty bad.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

So when people who are, you know -- these youngsters.

These days. They look at Barack and Michelle. They're like, that was an awkward kiss.

Don't even start with me.

We knew when we were kids, what awkward kisses were like.

PAT: The other awkward thing about that.

She claims, there was not been one moment in their marriage.

Where she's considered reeving him.

GLENN: Yeah.

PAT: She just said a while ago. A month or a year ago, she hated his guts for ten years. She hated it.

GLENN: Yeah. But that doesn't mean you'll give up.

PAT: I guess not. I guess not. Maybe you enjoy being miserable.

I don't know.

GLENN: No. I have to tell you the truth.

My grandmother when I got a divorce, just busted me up forever. I call her up, and I said, on my first marriage.

Grandma, we're getting a divorce.

And my sweet little 80-year-old grandmother, who never said a bad thing in her life said, excuse me?

And I said, what?

We're getting a divorce.

And she said, how dare you.

I said, what's happening. And she said, I really thought you would be the one that would understand. Out of everybody in this family, I thought you would understand.

And I said, what?

And she said, this just -- this just crushed me when she said it.

Do you think your grandfather and I liked each other all these years? I was like, well, yeah.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: Kind of. And she said, we loved each other. But we didn't always like each other. And there were times that we were so mad at each other.

PAT: Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh.

STU: But we knew one thing: Marriage lasts until death!

PAT: Did she know your first wife?

GLENN: Okay. All right. That's just not necessary.

No, Trump’s tariffs ARE NOT causing inflation

The media is insisting that President Trump's tariffs caused a rise in inflation for June. But Our Republic president Justin Haskins joins Glenn to debunk this theory and present another for where inflation is really coming from.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Justin Haskins is here. He is the president of Our Republic. And the editor-in-chief of stoppingsocialism.com.

He is also the coauthor with me at the Great Reset, Dark Future, and Propaganda War.

So, in other words, I'm saying, he doesn't have a lot of credibility. But he is here to report -- I don't even think you're -- you're -- you were wrong on this, too, with the tariffs. Right?

JUSTIN: Well, at some point, I was wrong about everything.

GLENN: Yeah, right. We are all on the road to being right.

But this is coming as a shock. You called yesterday, and you said, Glenn, I think the tariff thing -- I think the president might be right.

And this is something I told him, if I'm wrong. I will admit that I'm wrong.

But I don't think I'm wrong.

Because this goes against everything the economists have said, forever.

That tariffs don't work.

They increase inflation.

It's going to cost us more.

All of these things. You have been study this now for a while, to come up with the right answer, no matter where it fell.

Tell me what's going on.

JUSTIN: Okay. So the most recent inflation data that came out from the government, shows that in June, prices went up 2.7 percent. In May, they went up 2.4 percent. That's compared to a year prior. And most people are saying, well, this is proof that the tariffs are causing inflation.

GLENN: Wait. That inflation is -- the target is -- the target is two -- I'm sorry.

We're not. I mean, when I was saying, it was going to cause inflation. I thought we could be up to 5 percent.

But, anyway, go ahead.

JUSTIN: So the really incredible thing though. The more you look at the numbers. The more obvious it is, that this does not prove inflation at all.

For starters, these numbers are lower, than what the numbers were in December and January.

Before Trump was president. And before we had any talk of tariffs at all.

So that is a big red flag right at the very beginning. When you dive even deeper into the numbers, what you see is there's all kinds of parts of the Consumer Price Index that tracks specific industries, or kinds of goods and services. That should be showing inflation, if inflation is being caused by tariffs, but isn't.

So, for example, clothing and apparel. Ninety-seven percent, basically.

About 97 percent according to one report, of clothing and apparel comes overseas, imported into the United States.

GLENN: Correct.

JUSTIN: So prices for apparel and clothing should be going up. And they're not going up, according to the data, they're actually going down, compared to what they were a year ago. Same thing is true with new vehicles.

Obviously, there were huge tariffs put on foreign vehicles, not on domestic vehicles. So it's a little bit more mixed.

But new vehicle price are his staying basically flat. They haven't gone up at all. Even though, there's a 25 percent tariff on imported cars and car parts. And then we just look at the overall import prices. You just -- sort of the index. Which the government tracks.

What we're seeing is that prices are basically staying the same, from what they were a year ago.

There's very, very little movement overall.

GLENN: Okay. So wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

Wait.

Let me just -- let me just make something career.

Somebody is eating the tariffs. And it appears to be the companies that are making these things. Which is what Donald Trump said. And then, the -- you know, the economist always saying, well, they're just going to pass this on in the price.

Well, they have to. They have to get this money some place.

So where are they?

Is it possible they're just doing this right now, to get past. Because they know if they jack up their price, you know, they won't be able to sell anything. What is happening?

How is this money, being coughed up by the companies, and not passed on to the consumer.

JUSTIN: Yeah, it could be happening. I think the most likely scenario, is that they are passing it along to consumers. They're just not passing it along to American consumers.

In other words, they're raising prices elsewhere. To try to protect the competitiveness with the American market. Because the American market is the most important consumer market in the world.

And they probably don't want to piss off Donald Trump either, in jacking up prices. And then potentially having tariffs go up even more, as a punishment for doing that.

Because that's a real option.

And so I think that's what's happening right now.

Now, it's possible, that we are going to see a huge increase in inflation. In six months!

That's entirely possible.

We don't know what's going to happen. But as of right now, all the data is suggesting that recent inflation is not coming from consumer goods being imported, or anything like that.

That's not where the inflation is coming.

Instead, it's coming from housing.

That's part of the CPI at that time.

Housing is the cause of inflation right now.

GLENN: Wait. Wait. It's not housing, is it?

Because the things to make houses is not going through the roof. Pardon the pun. Right?

It's not building.

JUSTIN: No. No. The way the CPI calculates housing is really stupid. They look basically primarily at rent. That's the primary way, they determine housing prices.

GLENN: Okay.

JUSTIN: That so on they're not talking about housing costs to build a new house.

Or housing prices to buy a new house.

They are talking about rent.

And then they try to use rent data, as a way of calculating how much you would have to pay if you owned a house, but you had to rent the same kind of house.

And that's how they come up with this category.

GLENN: Can I ask you a question: Is everybody in Washington, are they all retarded?
(laughter)
Because I don't. What the hell. Who is coming up with that formula?

JUSTIN: Look. I mean, sort of underlying this whole conversation, as you -- as you and I know, Glenn.

And Pat too. The CPI is a joke to begin with.

GLENN: Right.

JUSTIN: So there's all kinds of problems with this system, to begin with.

I mean, come on!

GLENN: Okay. So because I promised the president, if I was wrong, and I had the data that I was wrong, I would tell him.

Do I have to -- out of all the days to do this.

Do I have to call him today, to do that?

Are we still -- are we still looking at this, going, well, maybe?

JUSTIN: I think there's -- I think there is a really solid argument that you don't need to make the phone call.

GLENN: Oh, thank God. Today is not the day to call Donald Trump. Today is not the day.

Yeah. All right.

JUSTIN: And the reason why is, we need -- we probably do need more data over a longer period of time, to see if corporations are doing something.

In order to try to push these cuts off into the future, for some reason. Maybe in the hopes that the tariffs go down. Or maybe -- you know, it's all sorts of ways, they could play with it, to try to avoid paying those costs today.

It's possible, that's what's going on.

But as of right now, that's not at all, what is happening. As far as I can tell from the data.

GLENN: But isn't the other side of this, because everybody else said, oh. It's not going to pay for anything.

Didn't we last month have the first surplus since, I don't know. Abraham Lincoln.

JUSTIN: Yes. Yes. We did. I don't know how long that surplus will last us.

GLENN: Yeah. But we had one month.

I don't think I've ever heard that before in my lifetime. Hey, United States had a surplus.

JUSTIN: I looked it up.

I think it was like 20 something years ago, was the last time that happened. If I remembered right.

It was 20 something years ago.

So this is incredible, really.

And if it works.

You and I talked about this before.

I actually think there is an argument to be made. That this whole strategy could work, if American manufacturers can dramatically bring down their costs. To produce goods and services.

So that they can be competitive.

And I think that advancements in artificial intelligence. In automation. Is going to open up the door to that being a reality.

And if you listen to the Trump administration talk. People like Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce. They have said, this is the plan.

The plan is, go all in on artificial intelligence.

Automation. That's going to make us competitive with manufacturers overseas. China is already doing that.

They're already automating their factories. They lead the world in automation.

GLENN: Yeah, but they can take half their population, put them up in a plane, and then crash it into the side of the mountain.

They don't care.

What happens to the people that now don't have a job here? How do they afford the clothes that are now much, much cheaper?

JUSTIN: Well, I think the answer to that is, there's going to be significantly more wealth. Trillions of dollars that we send overseas, every year, now in the American economy. And that's going to go into other things. It's not as though -- when this technology comes along, it is not as though people lose their jobs, and that's it. People sit on their couch forever.

The real danger here is not that new markets will not arrive in that situation. And jobs with it. The problem is: I think there's a real opportunity here. And I think this is going to be the fight of the next election, potentially. Presidential election. And going forward.

Next, ten, 20 years. This is going to be a huge issue. Democrats are going to have the opportunity, when the AI revolution goes into full force. They will have the opportunity like they've never had before.

To say, you know what, we'll take care of you. Don't worry about it.

We're just going to take all of the corporate money and all of the rich people's money.

And we will print trillions of dollars more. And you can sit on your couch forever. And we will just pay you. Because this whole system is rigged, and it's unfair, and you don't have a job anymore because of AI. And there's nothing you can do. You can't compete with AI. AI is smarter than you.

You have no hope.

I think that's coming, and it is going to be really hard for free market people to fight back against that.

GLENN: Yes.

Well, I tend to agree with you.

Because the -- you know, I thought about this.

I war gamed this, probably in 2006.

I'm thinking, okay.

If -- if the tech is going to grow and grow and grow. And they will start being -- they will be responsible for taking the jobs.

They won't be real on popular.

So they will need some people that will allow them to stay in business, and to protect them.

So they're going to need to be in with the politicians.

And if the politicians are overseeing the -- the decrease of jobs, they're going to need the -- the PR arm of things like social media. And what it can be done.

What can be done now.

I was thinking, at the time. Google can do.

But they need each other.

They must have one another. And unless we have a stronger foundation, and a very clear direction, and I will tell you. The president disagrees with me on this.

I said, he's going to be remembered as the transformational AI president.

And he said, I think you're wrong on that.

And I don't think I am.

This -- this -- this time period is going to be remembered for transformation.

And he is transforming the world. But the one that will make the lasting difference will be power and AI.

Agree with that or disagree?

JUSTIN: 1,000 percent. 1,000 percent. This is by far the most important thing that is happening in his administration in the long run. You're projecting out ten, 20, 30 years ago years.

They will be talking about this moment in history, a thousand years from now. Like, that will -- and they will -- and if America becomes the epicenter of this new technology, they will be talking about it, a thousand years from now, about how Americans were the ones that really developed this.

That they're the ones that promoted it, that they're the ones that does took advantage of it.
That's why this AI race with China is so important that we win it.

It's one of the reasons why. And I do think it's a defining moment for his presidency. Of course, the problem with all of this is AI could kill us all. You have to weigh that in.

GLENN: Yeah. Right. Right.

Well, we hope you're wrong on that one.

And I'm wrong on it as well. Justin, thank you so much.

Thank you for giving me the out, where I don't have to call him today. But I might have to call him soon. Thanks, Justin. I appreciate it.

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

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