This SHOCKING summer camp forms kids into far-left ACTIVISTS

Since the 2020 George Floyd riots, America’s streets have been plagued with chaos. It’s become SO bad that now even CHILDREN are villainizing our police officers. But this is what the far-left WANTS. The more chaos, the better. In fact, a new summer camp (in Portland, no surprise) teaches kids how to be activists on the streets. In this clip from his recent Wednesday Night TV special, Glenn shows some of the SHOCKING materials used at this camp — like a coloring book that discusses what to do if tear gassed…

GLENN: America’s war on cops has reached an absurd level when children are cussing out and attacking police officers.

These attacks are the product of the extreme violence ravaging U.S. cities, like this attack on a pedestrian in the Bronx last week. The man was hit by a car and robbed while he laid unconscious in the street.

During a bus ride in Queens last week, a 57-year-old woman was bashed in the head with a blunt object by two girls aged 15 and 16. One of the attackers allegedly yelled at the woman, “I hate white people.”

This chaos is spillover from the George Floyd riots in 2020 that were allowed to run rampant. A report by the Insurance Information Institute calls those riots, quote: “…the costliest civil unrest in U.S. history with insured losses estimated at over $2 BILLION…”

Where would children develop the idea that violence is acceptable and that cops are automatically the bad guys who are out to get them? You don’t get there overnight. You get there through persistent indoctrination. We’re seeing the Marxist playbook in action. The goal is to destabilize society in order to usher in a new system – out of chaos, create a new order.

In the aftermath of the George Floyd riots, you now see things like “Budding Roses,” a two-week indoctrination camp for kids in Portland, Oregon. It features tons of fun activities like

Black Lives Matter coloring books, and seminars about abolishing the police, racism,white supremacy, student activism, gender, climate change, and more!

Campers are also taught things like, “ways to keep yourself safe if you get tear gassed.” They get a helpful little comic book narrated by an Antifa character who says, quote: “It’s been pretty tense around here lately. You might have some questions. I’m your FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD ANTI-FASCIST, and I’m here to clear some of them up.”

The camp is run by a group called Black Rose Anarchist Foundation. Sounds very safe.

That level of propaganda aimed at youth is how American Marxists are waging their ideological war. Marxists discovered that violent revolution, and even the terrorist attacks of the 1960s and seventies, would not be able to overthrow the U.S. government like they were able to do in other nations. They would have to engage in long-term indoctrination and gradual subversion to achieve revolution.

You never know when your indoctrination efforts might pay off.

Take Harmony Goldberg, for example.

In 1996, she founded the School of Unity and Liberation in Oakland, California. Seven years later, a young Alicia Garza began her Marxist training there. Garza went on to co-found Black Lives Matter.

Another one of BLM’s co-founders, Patrice Cullors, is a self-described Marxist who received her training from Eric Mann. He was a leader in the Weather Underground domestic terrorist group.

After an attack on a police station in 1969, he was charged on four counts including conspiracy to commit murder and promotion of anarchy. He was convicted and spent 18 months in prison. But he eventually created the Labor and Community Strategy Center in Los Angeles where Patrice Cullors showed up as a 17-year-old and spent the next eleven years being trained by Mann as a Marxist “organizer.”

He must have been incredibly proud when his protégé helped lead the most damaging riots in U.S. history.

In August, 2020, after BLM got the Los Angeles School Board to cut its $70 million Police Department budget by 35 percent, Eric Mann called it, “a major ideological victory.”

And what has this Marxist-driven effort to defund police departments brought America over the last two years? More violent crime chaos than ever before.

In Portland, all those Antifa protests on behalf of BLM just made their city more dangerous.

Portland had 58% more homicides in 2020 compared to 2019. In 2021, homicides rose another 54% over 2020. Portland also saw 218 non-fatal shootings in 2020 (more than double the previous year). That number rose to 334 last year.

A recent study finds the majority of homicide suspects in Portland have been arrested an average of SIX TIMES before, and shooting suspects an average of EIGHT TIMES before.

Last week, Portland’s Police Chief implored the community to stop the violence toward police officers, saying quote:

The violence shown last night toward officers and over the weekend is shocking and reprehensible. In the last four days, officers have been shot at, had suspects fight with them, run over by a vehicle and another almost run over.

Baltimore, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Atlanta, and New York City are all on pace this year to exceed their totals for violent crime in 2021.

Even Denver, of all places, is on pace to see a record-breaking number of murders this year.

In New York City, rapes have increased 11 percent over last year; felony assaults are up 18 percent; and robberies are up 39 percent.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot cut her city’s police budget by $80 million.

Last weekend, Chicago had thirty people shot, and four killed.

The previous weekend it was 65 shootings and fived killed. Chicago is a war zone every single weekend.

Never mind that video – it’s just people assaulting a Chicago cop car with fireworks on July fourth.

Scaling back police departments in the name of social justice is not the only factor creating chaos. There is also an insane epidemic of NOT prosecuting criminals. Every day there are headlines from across the nation about criminals being let off the hook. Last week, a sixteen-year-old boy, who already had a criminal record, was arrested for assaulting a police officer in a New York City subway, watch…

The 16-year-old was released the next day.

Could passengers have SAVED Iryna Zarutska?

Surveillance footage of the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte, NC, reveals that the other passengers on the train took a long time to help her. Glenn, Stu, and Jason debate whether they were right or wrong to do so.

GLENN: You know, I'm -- I'm torn on how I feel about the people on the train.

Because my first instinct is, they did nothing! They did nothing! Then my -- well, sit down and, you know -- you know, you're going to be judged. So be careful on judging others.

What would I have done? What would I want my wife to do in that situation?


STU: Yeah. Are those two different questions, by the way.

GLENN: Yeah, they are.

STU: I think they go far apart from each other. What would I want myself to do. I mean, it's tough to put yourself in a situation. It's very easy to watch a video on the internet and talk about your heroism. Everybody can do that very easily on Twitter. And everybody is.

You know, when you're in a vehicle that doesn't have an exit with a guy who just murdered somebody in front of you, and has a dripping blood off of a knife that's standing 10 feet away from you, 15 feet away from you.

There's probably a different standard there, that we should all kind of consider. And maybe give a little grace to what I saw at least was a woman, sitting across the -- the -- the aisle.

I think there is a difference there. But when you talk about that question. Those two questions are definitive.

You know, I know what I would want myself to do. I would hope I would act in a way that didn't completely embarrass myself afterward.

But I also think, when I'm thinking of my wife. My advice to my wife would not be to jump into the middle of that situation at all costs. She might do that anyway. She actually is a heck of a lot stronger than I am.

But she might do it anyway.

GLENN: How pathetic, but how true.

STU: Yes. But that would not be my advice to her.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: Now, maybe once the guy has certainly -- is out of the area. And you don't think the moment you step into that situation. He will turn around and kill you too. Then, of course, obviously. Anything you can do to step in.

Not that there was much anyone on the train could do.

I mean, I don't think there was an outcome change, no matter what anyone on that train did.

Unfortunately.

But would I want her to step in?

Of course. If she felt she was safe, yes.

Think about, you said, your wife. Think about your daughter. Your daughter is on that train, just watching someone else getting murdered like that. Would you advise your daughter to jump into a situation like that?

That girl sitting across the aisle was somebody's daughter. I don't know, man.

JASON: I would. You know, as a dad, would I advise.

Hmm. No.

As a human being, would I hope that my daughter or my wife or that I would get up and at least comfort that woman while she's dying on the floor of a train?

Yeah.

I would hope that my daughter, my son, that I would -- and, you know, I have more confidence in my son or daughter or my wife doing something courageous more than I would.

But, you know, I think I have a more realistic picture of myself than anybody else.

And I'm not sure that -- I'm not sure what I would do in that situation. I know what I would hope I would do. But I also know what I fear I would do. But I would have hoped that I would have gotten up and at least tried to help her. You know, help her up off the floor. At least be there with her, as she's seeing her life, you know, spill out in under a minute.

And that's it other thing we have to keep in mind. This all happened so rapidly.

A minute is -- will seem like a very long period of time in that situation. But it's a very short period of time in real life.

STU: Yeah. You watch the video, Glenn. You know, I don't need the video to -- to change my -- my position on this.

But at his seem like there was a -- someone who did get there, eventually, to help, right? I saw someone seemingly trying to put pressure on her neck.

GLENN: Yeah. And tried to give her CPR.

STU: You know, no hope at that point. How long of a time period would you say that was?

Do you know off the top of your head?

GLENN: I don't know. I don't know. I know that we watched the video that I saw. I haven't seen past 30 seconds after she --

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: -- is down. And, you know, for 30 seconds nothing is happening. You know, that is -- that is not a very long period of time.

STU: Right.

GLENN: In reality.

STU: And especially, I saw the pace he was walking. He certainly can't be -- you know, he may have left the actual train car by 30 seconds to a minute. But he wasn't that far away. Like he was still in visual.

He could still turn around and look and see what's going on at that point. So certainly still a threat is my point. He has not, like, left the area. This is not that type of situation.

You know, I -- look, as you point out, I think if I could be super duper sexist for a moment here, sort of my dividing line might just be men and women.

You know, I don't know if it's that a -- you're not supposed to say that, I suppose these days. But, like, there is a difference there. If I'm a man, you know, I would be -- I would want my son to jump in on that, I suppose. I don't know if he could do anything about it. But you would expect at least a grown man to be able to go in there and do something about it. A woman, you know, I don't know.

Maybe I'm -- I hope --

GLENN: Here's the thing I -- here's the thing that I -- that causes me to say, no. You should have jumped in.

And that is, you know, you've already killed one person on the train. So you've proven that you're a killer. And anybody who would have screamed and got up and was with her, she's dying. She's dying. Get him. Get him.

Then the whole train is responsible for stopping that guy. You know. And if you don't stop him, after he's killed one person, if you're not all as members of that train, if you're not stopping him, you know, the person at the side of that girl would be the least likely to be killed. It would be the ones that are standing you up and trying to stop him from getting back to your daughter or your wife or you.

JASON: There was a -- speaking of men and women and their roles in this. There was a video circling social media yesterday. In Sweden. There was a group of officials up on a stage. And one of the main. I think it was health official woman collapses on stage. Completely passes out.

All the men kind of look away. Or I don't know if they're looking away. Or pretending that they didn't know what was going on. There was another woman standing directly behind the woman passed out.

Immediately springs into action. Jumps on top. Grabs her pant leg. Grabs her shoulder. Spins her over and starts providing care.

What did she have that the other guys did not? Or women?

She was a sheepdog. There is a -- this is my issue. And I completely agree with Stu. I completely agree with you. There's some people that do not respond this way. My issue is the proportion of sheepdogs versus people that don't really know how to act. That is diminishing in western society. And American society.

We see it all the time in these critical actions. I mean, circumstances.

There are men and women, and it's actually a meme. That fantasize about hoards of people coming to attack their home and family. And they sit there and say, I've got it. You guys go. I'm staying behind, while I smoke my cigarette and wait for the hoards to come, because I will sacrifice myself. There are men and women that fantasize of block my highway. Go ahead. Block my highway. I'm going to do something about it. They fantasize about someone holding up -- not a liquor store. A convenience store or something. Because they will step in and do something. My issue now is that proportion of sheepdogs in society is disappearing. Just on statistical fact, there should be one within that train car, and there were none.

STU: Yeah. I mean --

JASON: They did not respond.

STU: We see what happens when they do, with Daniel Penny. Our society tries to vilify them and crush their existence. Now, there weren't that many people on that train. Right?

At least on that car. At least it's limited. I only saw three or four people there, there may have been more. I agree with you, though. Like, you see what happens when we actually do have a really recent example of someone doing exactly what Jason wants and what I would want a guy to do. Especially a marine to step up and stop this from happening. And the man was dragged by our legal system to a position where he nearly had to spend the rest of his life in prison.

I mean, I -- it's insanity. Thankfully, they came to their senses on that one.

GLENN: Well, the difference between that one and this one though is that the guy was threatening. This one, he killed somebody.

STU: Yeah. Right. Well, but -- I think -- but it's the opposite way. The debate with Penny, was should he have recognize that had this person might have just been crazy and not done anything?

Maybe. He hadn't actually acted yet. He was just saying things.

GLENN: Yeah. Well --

STU: He didn't wind up stabbing someone. This is a situation where these people have already seen what this man will do to you, even when you don't do anything to try to stop him. So if this woman, who is, again, looks to be an average American woman.

Across the aisle. Steps in and tries to do something. This guy could easily turn around and just make another pile of dead bodies next to the one that already exists.

And, you know, whether that is an optimal solution for our society, I don't know that that's helpful.

In that situation.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Max Lucado on Overcoming Grief in Dark Times | The Glenn Beck Podcast | Ep 266

Disclaimer: This episode was filmed prior to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. But Glenn believes Max's message is needed now more than ever.
The political world is divided, constantly at war with itself. In many ways, our own lives are not much different. Why do we constantly focus on the negative? Why are we in pain? Where is God amid our anxiety and fear? Why can’t we ever seem to change? Pastor Max Lucado has found the solution: Stop thinking like that! It may seem easier said than done, but Max joins Glenn Beck to unpack the three tools he describes in his new book, “Tame Your Thoughts,” that make it easy for us to reset the way we think back to God’s factory settings. In this much-needed conversation, Max and Glenn tackle everything from feeling doubt as a parent to facing unfair hardships to ... UFOs?! Plus, Max shares what he recently got tattooed on his arm.

Are Demonic Forces to Blame for Charlie Kirk, Minnesota & Charlotte Killings?

This week has seen some of the most heinous actions in recent memory. Glenn has been discussing the growth of evil in our society, and with the assassination of civil rights leader Charlie Kirk, the recent transgender shooter who took the lives of two children at a Catholic school, and the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, how can we make sense of all this evil? On today's Friday Exclusive, Glenn speaks with BlazeTV host of "Strange Encounters" Rick Burgess to discuss the demon-possessed transgender shooter and the horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk. Rick breaks down the reality of demon possession and how individuals wind up possessed. Rick and Glenn also discuss the dangers of the grotesque things we see online and in movies, TV shows, and video games on a daily basis. Rick warns that when we allow our minds to be altered by substances like drugs or alcohol, it opens a door for the enemy to take control. A supernatural war is waging in our society, and it’s a Christian’s job to fight this war. Glenn and Rick remind Christians of what their first citizenship is.
