How Trump’s Executive Orders are DISMANTLING Wokeness

Donald Trump has barely started his second presidency and he’s already hitting the ground running! Glenn and Stu review what he’s doing to quickly purge Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies from the federal bureaucracy and make sure they can’t be hidden somewhere else. Trump also put an end to affirmative action for federal contractors and universities, a massive shift towards prioritizing merit again: “They are going for the roots of these problems.” Glenn also highlights some other massive wins in the first few days of Trump’s return: The failed head of the Coast Guard was fired, Republicans are moving to revoke the FACE Act, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has told US Embassies to stop flying Pride flags, and Trump has instructed departments to prioritize an “architectural renaissance” that focuses on “beauty”.

GLENN: I'm looking through.

I don't even know where to begin. Let's start at some little things. The Trump administration, has ordered all federal employees in DE offices to be placed on paid leave and shut DEI down. Gosh, darn it, the office of personal management. The government's top human resources agency, notified all federal department heads in a memo. DEI programs must be notified by 5:00 p.m. today. Their administrative leave is effective immediately. Also, all outward facing media. Such as web pages and social media accounts, focused on DEI programs, all gone by 5:00 p.m. today.

Cancel all employee diversity trainings. Terminate any DEI-related contracts by 5:00 p.m. today.

Also -- now, listen to this. They are asking all agency heads, to ask employees, if they know of any effort to disguise DEI programs with coded or imprecise language, and report their findings back.

By January 31st, and any employee caught trying to skirt this, they will have, quote, adverse consequences.

I would like them to -- I would like it just to be known. You're going to be fired. But I guess adverse consequences could be more than fired.

STU: I like this too. This is the Thomas Sowell book, Thinking Beyond Stage One.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: That's what you have going on here.

They know what they're going to try with DEI. They're going to try to change the language.

They will try to hide it with imprecise things. They are going to do that. They already are looking for what the response will be with all of this, which is really, really positive.

GLENN: If anyone doesn't think Donald Trump was prepared. Look at just this week.

STU: You've never seen anything like this from any president. Whether you like it or not, you have to admit, he's coming in here with a real plan and attempting to execute it quickly.

In an overwhelming way. I tend to like a lot of the stuff he's doing. Even if you -- even if you look at this, because we've looked at this from the other side with a sort of, like, admiration in a way. Right?

Right? An annoyed admiration of what the left has done. They've built things. They've prepared with moments.

GLENN: Oh, yeah. This is the first time in my life. They've done --

STU: That's what it feels like.

GLENN: I will tell you, that I was talking to somebody, who is in on the planning yesterday.

And they said, that president Trump made a list of every campaign promise, that he made. He asked for everybody, remember what I said. Put it on the list. He made the list too.

And he is really checking it twice. And marking them off. When they do them, he is determined to keep every campaign promise.

So you want to know, left, what he's going to do.

Take him at his word.

STU: And all these.

To be clear. They attempted to do this.

Steve Bannon attempted to do this in the first administration. Came in with a big list. It has been well-covered. They just didn't get a lot of it done. They didn't know what they're doing.

GLENN: Oh, this time, they do. This time, they do.

GLENN: According to TheBlaze today, the new chairman of the FCC, who I love.

Chairman Brendan Carr has announced the ends of all diversity, equity, and inclusion programs at the FCC.

He said, he was erasing DEI as a priority. The commission's strategic plan. He said, he would end DEI advisory group at the FCC. And any mention of the DEI in the Commission's budget.

Also, DEI will be excised from the performance reports at the FCC, as well as all economic plans.

Amen.

Now, let's go to Trump ending affirmative action for federal contractors, and universities.

He's just signed an executive order, rescinding Lyndon Johnson's executive order, of 11246, which established affirmative action and bans all federal contractors and publicly funded universities from practicing race-based discrimination, including DEI. This is a massive shift, that came under Lyndon Johnson.

These guys, thank God. They -- they are going for the roots of these problems.

This is not somebody that is just, you know, cutting the hedges. These guys are going down into the soil, and pulling it up by its roots.

The Coast Guard, as soon as he took oath of office, just within hours, the head of the Coast Guard was -- was relieved of command.

The commandant of the Coast Guard. Admiral Linda Fagan, apparently, Department of Homeland Security first reported her ouster, a minute after midnight on Tuesday.

She was fired and told she was going to be fired right after he was sworn in.

Leftist outlets and everybody else was like, oh, you can't do that.

She's the first female leader of the military service. Yeah. And she sucked. Okay?

She sucked. She didn't address any of the threats of border security. She didn't hit any of her recruitment or retention goals. She did not adequately equip the Coast Guard stations in the Arctic. Why do you think we're going for Greenland? Because China and Russia are coming into the pole, over the Arctic. And she didn't protect that. She also mishandled the Operation -- Operation Fouled Anchor, which was an investigation into the coverup of sexual misconduct at the Coast Guard Academy, and excessive focus on DEI.

She said, one of her famous quotes. Something like, our diversity is our strength. Our diversity only makes us stronger.

Does it? Does it? Or does our unity make us stronger?

We can be diverse, but not in everything.

Not in everything. I would like to be diverse in thought. But not on principles. What do you think?

And I don't care about your skin color. Nobody does. Stop it!

Now, let's see. What else?

Republicans. I love this.

Chip Roy.

Thank you. Is making a movie to repeal the Face Act. He said, and Mike Lee is about to introduce it in the Senate. It has to get past the House. And then he will pick it up in the Senate.

Their case is, you don't need the Face Act. There is no constitutional right to abortion. So what constitutional right are they enforcing?

None. You don't have that right. So -- and you certainly have the right of speaking your mind, gathering and protesting, as long as it's lawful, and you're not, you know -- you know, doing anything. Breaking the law. And harassing people.

But certainly can gather. And so they now want to take the Face Act and get rid of it.

Do you know what that would mean? Do you know how great that is? And it's happening through Congress. And the Senate.

So they're being. They're hitting on all fronts so far. The Trump administration told all of the State Department, through Marco Rubio, all of the State Department, every embassy, you are no longer allowed to fly the LGBT Pride or BLM flags at the embassies. You can fly the POW flag, but that's it.

It's the flag of the United States of America, and that's the only other flag you're allowed to fly. Is POW.

I think that's fantastic. I mean, we're in countries now, where they do not want to hear the preaching from the United States of America.

Especially in places like Africa. Uh-uh. They don't want to hear that.

STU: It's common sense. You know, it's not -- even if you completely support every one of those causes. Why on earth, would we be hanging the flag of them, in our foreign embassies? It makes no sense.

GLENN: Right.

STU: It's an American political issue. What does that have to do with this?

GLENN: So Marco Rubio issued the statement, starting immediately, only the United States of America flag is authorized to be flown or displayed at US facilities, both domestic and abroad. And featured in US government content. So, in other words, you can't put any of those markings now on any of our websites.

The flag of the United States of America united all Americans under the universal principle of justice, liberty, and democracy. These values are the bedrock of our great country, and are shared by all American citizens past and present.

The US flag is a powerful symbol of pride, and it is fitting and respectful that only the US flag be flown or displayed at US facilities both domestically and abroad.

Anyone who transgresses this new policy, will face disciplinary action, including termination of employment, contract, or reassignment to their home agency.

Now, this stands in -- Linken said, that for May and June, the rainbow flag had to be flown at all US embassies all over the world for Pride month.

STU: Wait. May and June.

GLENN: Yeah. He announced this on May 17th, which is the international day against homophobia and transphobia.

And so they --

STU: Of course, it is obviously, Glenn. We all know. December 25th and May 17th. The big holidays.

GLENN: Right. And so they have that, May 17th. And he's like, just put it up on May 17th.

And just don't take it down until the end of June.

So now you get a month and a half. A month and a half.

Right. So that will not happen anymore. Let me show you how deep this is going.

Donald Trump, remember, is a real estate guy. He's also a builder. And somebody in this administration understands Thomas Jefferson.

Thomas Jefferson said, if you want your society and your civilization to live on, you must embed its value values in its architecture.

Okay? Well, ugly, brutalist, and Soviet-style architecture, is everywhere.

If you've gone to Washington DC, there's some beautiful architecture, and then there's all that ugly new architecture.

That just means nothing.

It's just brutalist.

Donald Trump has just -- issued another executive order, on his first day.

Asking the heads of departments to provide recommendations on how to advance the cause of an architectural renaissance in America.

That would see all the federal buildings prioritized butte, over anti traditional hang-ups or egos of radicals.

Toward the end of his first term, he issued an executive order, mandating the new federal building should not only be designed to serve the American people. But should be designed to uplift and beautify public spaces, inspire the human spirit, ennoble the United States, command respect from the general public. And as appropriate, respect the architectural heritage of the regions of the United States. Joe Biden immediately cancelled that. You know, we have architect fights now?

And so they have now taken the design. The Jay Edgar Hoover Building is a really good example of this.

Just ugly and meaningless, and so they rescinded Trump's order. And started to put into place, all of these, you know, new plans for new buildings. And Trump just stopped it. Said, sorry!

We are not going to build ugly buildings any more. They mean nothing. And they're Soviet in style. It's not happening. That's how deep this is going. That's how well-thought out this is.

STU: They have for a long time.

Because he does, like, a little bit of that ceremony. Right? He talks about big parades. This -- whatever it is, celebration of our -- in 2026, is a big one that he's talking about.

This has been important to him for a while.

And, again, like it's a great illustration of how well this stuff has been thought out.

GLENN: It should be important to all of us.

You know, I lived through the bicentennial. I remember it.

Okay? That bicentennial stuff, it was out by 1972. We knew the logo. You remember that red, white, and blue star logo? That rounded star logo.

I don't know if you were old enough to remember it.

STU: I was born -- I'm a bicentennial baby, Glenn. My mom used to tell me --

GLENN: Okay. So it was out -- congratulations, that's icky.

Let's talk about your mom creating you.

STU: That's when I was born, not conceived, weirdo.

GLENN: Well, anyway.

STU: She didn't tell me, hey, by the way, oh, it was a wonderful night, all about it. That wasn't part of the analysis.

GLENN: Oh, I've got to tell you, sometimes when the kids get really out of control, I start down that road. They shut up really quickly. They shut up really quickly and run.

STU: I bet they do.

GLENN: But we had -- by 1972, we were talking about the Bicentennial, and it was a big buildup. Here we are, 18 months away. Not even that. We're fifteen months away from the 250th birthday. There's no logo. There's nothing.

There's nothing. There's a lot of plans out there. But we haven't even started that.

He believes in not being embarrassed by the United States. We talked about this yesterday. With renaming Mount McKinley, Mount McKinley again.

Exactly -- he is the exact opposite of Michelle Obama.

Michelle Obama said, and Barack knows. We are going to have to change our traditions.

STU: Our history.

GLENN: Our history. Do you have it? Go ahead, and play that again.

VOICE: And Barack knows, we will have to make sacrifices. We will to have change our conversation.

We will to have change our traditions, our history. We are going to have to move into a different place.

GLENN: He knows that. And he is systematically dismantling it.

I'm telling you, this guy, if -- if they can keep this going, and withstand the -- just the stupid attacks from the left, and the media. That is coming.

He's going to be remembered as an Abraham Lincoln.

He's going to be a refounder of this country.

And I for one, am thrilled.

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.

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.
