We're being played. THIS is the REAL threat to America

Conservatives in America are being divided over the wrong things. Glenn Beck asks: Who’s the real threat to America: Sen. Mike Lee, who wants to sell 3% of federally-owned land to states and cities, or the rising radical communist wing of the Democratic Party, who recently chose Zohran Mamdani as their NYC mayoral candidate?

GLENN: I want to talk to you about the enemy being clear. Crystal clear!

But I'm not sure to everybody.

I'm so sick and tired of us turning on each other.

We saw it with Elon Musk and Donald Trump. I like both men. Can we stop?

Thankfully, they did.

You're seeing it with Trump's bombing of Iran. Where you were either a Jew-loving Zionist or raging anti-Semite, or if you're me.

Both!

And then there's something that really caught me off-guard. The people who are turning on Utah Senator Mike Lee over a housing proposal, he's had this housing proposal since 2022.

But if you go on X, you're going to learn, apparently Mike Lee, one of the most Constitutional loving conservatives I know, wants to sell off our national parks and forest.

You know, he was probably in Coeur d'Alene lighting the matches, because he hates our forest so much. He wants to make sure you never get to hunt.

All he wants to do is take away your fishing and hunting rights. And build cheap housing complexes. Amazon warehouses. And whatever China and BlackRock want.

You know, I addressed this a few weeks ago. I invited Mike to clarify where he stands. Because some of my family are very concerned.

You can find the segments on my YouTube channel. Go and subscribe to my YouTube channel. Will you please? But since then, apparently, there's a crusade out to cancel Senator Lee.

There have been a few major updates. So today, let me just take a look at just the facts here, where we stand on this right now.

Over the weekend, Mike Lee decided to withdraw his federal land sale provision from the big, beautiful bill.

He said, quote, while this has been a tremendous amount of misinformation, and in some cases, outright lies about my bill. Many people brought forward sincere concerns.

Because of the strict constraints of the budget reconciliation process, I was unable to secure clear, enforceable safeguards to guarantee, these lands would never be sold.

Only to American families. Not to China. To not BlackRock.

And never to any foreign interests.

Wow! What a shill for the globalists, right?

Or maybe how it should work. Members of Congress propose something presented to the people. And then they listen to the community. Instead of just insisting, we have to pass it, to know what's in it.

And I didn't hear this kind of outcry for that!

Here's one of the bigger issues here. We're speaking two different languages.

A lot of criticism online is that Mike Lee wants to sell off our public lands!

Our public lands. Pragmatism to a lot of Americans, those lands are the lands we use for recreation. And hiking. And haunting. And fishing.

And things like that. That's whatnot he wanted to sell. And he promised to make that much clearer in the revised bill.

Now, let me remind you, on the public lands. President Biden, under his administration. The federal government was ordered to conserve 30 percent of our lands. And our waters by 2030. So apparently, our public lands are being gobbled up even more.

That's another, I think six percentage points. Another 6 percent of the entire land in the United States, going to be seized by the federal government, by 2030. And it falls directly in line with the UN's 30 by 30 plan.

It's an initiative for governments to seize 30 percent of all land and water by 2030. Now, do you think the UN wants to give you more hunting and fishing land?

Do you think they're all for that? Or do you think these radical environmentalists want to restrict your access in the name of fighting climate change?

By the way, current -- currently, the US government owns 640 million acres of land. That's nearly a third of the country. So they've almost met that 30 by 30 goal.

And they will meet it, and then what's next? The 50 by 50 UN goal.

And in order to seize the rest of the land, there's the Sustains Act that passed. Do you know about this? I didn't hear about any outcry for this.

Where was the right on this one? It was enacted in 2023, allows the government to receive private funds to advance conservation programs.

So BlackRock, if they wanted to, could buy up the conservation lands! Does your property contribute to pollination, photosynthesis. The air we breathe. The water we drink?

Well, as I -- as I exposed, on a show back in September, the Sustains Act allows all of that to be monetized through the relationship of private investors like Bill Gates. And the government!

And it occurs without the landowners permission.

So they can take your land. Or tell you exactly what you want to do, or what they want you to do on that land, what you cannot do on that land, because photosynthesis happens.

Where was I?

Where were you on that?

This is the real seizing of American assets.

This is the real seizing of American assets, by the global corporations. That you were all so afraid of!

Mike Lee, oh, my gosh.

What about the Sustains Act?

In his revised bill. Which he's still working on.

Lee has promised to remove all forest land. Good. Significantly reduce the amount of BLM land in the bill.

Good. Only land within 5 miles of population centers is eligible.

Yeah. But when he gets that, then he'll build buildings there, and then he'll have another five.

And next thing you know, he will be putting a cap on -- on Old Faithful.

He'll establish freedom zones to ensure these lands benefit American families. Ranchers. Recreational users. But there's a lot of claims online.

Whatever.

Charlie Kirk said, the Democrats -- this is their war on single family housing.

Hmm.

Do you remember when we talked on the program about the globalist plan of 15-minute cities. That all of BlackRock and everything else is for.

Remember when BlackRock came in, and just started buying up whole neighborhoods. Just priced every regular citizen out of the neighborhood.

Why?

Because it's part of the plan to pack the majority of humanity into easily controllable cities where everything you need is just 15 minutes away. And you never need a car. But is that the American dream?

Currently, rural land is getting so expensive. Most Americans can't afford rural land!

I know. I'm living in a place that has a population of 400 -- I think it's 51. Might have had a baby, so maybe it's 452. And nobody can afford it.

How is it possible you're living in the middle of nowhere, with a population of 451 people, and you can't afford a house!

The elites don't need Mike Lee's proposal. But take more of your land.

They're already doing that. But here's my biggest issue.

This is not about Mike Lee's proposal. Okay?

It's not.

There is a much bigger issue.


And I'll share that when I come back.

GLENN: Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. So I was talking about federal -- I want to get off that. I want to change to, instead, what the real problem here is.

What the real problem is. The real problem on the seizing of the federal lands. Is that we are so quick to turn on ourselves.

We are so quick, lately, to turn on our -- our allies.

See, that's -- the issue isn't Mike Lee's proposal.

It's how fast we turn on each other!

If you believe Mike Lee's proposal didn't go far enough to safeguard our land from adversaries. Great!

That's fine. And, you know what, you won!

He's revamping that.

He listened.

The government listened. Good!

But can you say that without calling him a traitorous shill for the elites?

I mean, I don't know what traitorous shill for the elites that actually listens.

Do you?

Donald Trump Jr. He was against my plan. He thanked him over the weekend for pulling the proposal saying, quote, Mike is a great friend. And we usually agree on almost everything. But this was a rare exemption of where we didn't! Hello!

We don't need to hear people tear each other down. Who is our real enemy?

Who is -- who is more dangerous?

Can we go to -- can we go?

I don't have number on these, unfortunately. Six.

Seven, eight, nine, ten. Let's go to cut ten, please, on whiter neighborhoods.

VOICE: I realized there's a policy proposal, and I'm going to quote it for folks to shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer bureaus toward expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.

Explain why you are bringing race into your tax proposal.

VOICE: That is just a description of what we see right now.

It's not driven by race.

It's more of an assessment of what neighborhoods are being undertaxed versus overtaxed. We've seen time and again, that this is a property tax system that is inequitable. It's one that actually Eric Adams ran on, saying that he would change in the first 100 days.

He since sought to defend it, and lost at every juncture in court.

VOICE: And I understand, you're saying, we're simply describing the types of neighborhood that would see these increases in taxes.

And yet by invoking race, do you run the risk of potentially alienating key constituents.

STU: I think I'm just naming things as they are. And ultimately, my -- the thing that motivates me in this, is to create a system of fairness.

It's not to work backwards from an original assessment of our neighborhood or our city. Rather, it's to ensure that we actually have an equal playing field.

And right now, what we see with the property tax system, is one that is overtaxing a number of New Yorkers and undertaxing others. And inability of political will to resolve that.

VOICE: So no plans to change that language on your website?

VOICE: The focus here is to actually ensure a fair property tax system, and the use of that language is an assessment of the neighborhood.

GLENN: Just want it to be fair. Just want it to be fair. Play the next cut. This is Mamdani, by the way, the candidate in New York, that looks like he might win, to become the next mayor of New York. Next cut.

VOICE: You are a self-described democratic socialist. Do you think that billionaires have a right to exist?
(laughter)

VOICE: I don't think that we should have billionaires, because frankly it is so much money, in a moment of such inequality.

And ultimately, what we need more of is equality across our city, and across our state, and across our country.

And I look forward to work with everyone. Including billionaires. To make a city that is fair for all of them.

GLENN: Wow!

That is fantastic.

We shouldn't have billionaires.

Hmm. So how would we get there?

What would be his ultimate goal?

Listen.

VOICE: Do you like capitalism?

VOICE: No. I have many critiques of capitalism.

And I think ultimately, the definition for me, of why I call myself a Democratic Socialist.

Is the words of Dr. King decades ago. He said, call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism.

There must be a better distribution of wealth for all of God's children in this country.

And that's what I'm focused on, is dignity and taking on income inequality. What the purpose is about, about this project, is not simply to raise much consciousness, to win socialism.

And obviously raise class consciousness. We were a part of that. But making sure that we have candidates that both understand that and are willing to put that forward, at every which moment they have.

Every which moment that they are given.

We have to continue to elect more socialists. And we have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialism. And there are also other issues that we firmly believe in.

Whether it's BS -- right? Or whether it's the end goal of seizing the means of production, where we don't have the same level --

GLENN: Wait. Can you say that again for me?

Whether it's the end goal of ceasing is the means of production.

Let me ask you the question: Which is more dangerous to our country, and our heritage?

Is it the -- the senator?

That controversial maybe. Says 3 percent of federal land should be transferred back to the states?

Or is it the politician standing at a modem declaring, you know, not in some offhanded gap, that he has a real problem with capitalism. That he wants to tax white neighborhoods. That he wants to get rid of billionaires. And seize the means of production.

Now, for those who studied history. I don't need to tell you why your blood has suddenly run cold. Seize the means of production, that's not economic theory.

That is a revolutionary war cry. It always has been. It's the heart of Lenin, of Marx, of Mao. Of Gulags. Of five-year plans. A food line. Total state control. It is the slogan, whispered in the barracks of all of the camps.

Printed on the walls of the Khmer Rouge Torture cells.

That's not American. That's not a goal any of us should look for. But let's take down Elon Musk.

Let's -- let's take down our FBI.

Let's -- let's take down Mike Lee. Let's take down Tucker Carlson. Let's take down at the scene. Because we don't have enough enemies. Riley rightfully, somebody on this program, asked around on this time, on Friday. Glenn, why did you have Steve Bannon on? This is why I had Steve Bannon. We have enough enemies, don't we?

Can we find people we generally agree with, maybe 80 percent. Even if that 20 percent is massive!

If I'm going to be friends with anybody, for the times I'm going to be friends with.

Then I have to say, I part with you here.

You will have to go on your own way. But when you come back to this, I'm with you.

We are -- we are being -- our college campuses, the floor of our own legislative bodies. As if it were another just regular day in paradise of America.

You know, let me -- we want to talk about highway funding and seizing the means of production.

Wait. What?

Meanwhile, the man who says, we should return a tiny sliver of public land. Land that Washington hoards like a miser. While local communities struggle to pay for schools and police.

Why you can't afford a house!

That's an extremist. A radical. A threat. But this guy, I don't see anybody on the right, really standing up against this guy. Where is the big movement against this guy? It's almost as if, that whole federal lands thing, was orchestrated. And so many of our side played right into it!

That man who says, let the states manage their own forests, their own minerals, their own resources.

Just give us 3 percent of our land, so we can actually have a tax base, so we can build some houses there that people can afford. Let's make sure that the land is controlled by the people, who are closest to that land.

Let them be the stewards of it. Not the bureaucrats 2,000 miles away, who have never set foot in a pine thicket, or a desert mesa.

Which one is more in line with the Constitution? Which one is our bigger enemy here? Which one echoes Jefferson's belief in a government closest to the people? Which upholds the vision of the Founders who feared centralized power, more than foreign armies. Which one is calling for the seizing of the -- of the production?

You know, not all ideas are morally equivalent.

We're not dealing here with difference of opinion on tax rates. Or zoning codes.

One wants to give power back to the states.

And, you know what?

People rose up, and said, I don't like that idea.

So that idea has to be closed and forfeited.

Great! But where are the people standing up saying, seizing the means of production?

This guy wants to take control of your factory. Your farm.

Your business, your labor.

One believes in federalism. The other believes in collectivism. One respects the individual as a moral agent of society. And the other sees the individual as a cog in the great machine of the state that's just going to make utopia. Because they always do!

As you just -- you just can't see it. Because you're behind the barbed wire fence!

When somebody shrugs and says, you know, both sides are really pretty extreme. You know, it's time we say, no, no, no, no.

It's that kind of false equivalence that got us into this mess. That's how the frog stays in the pot as the water slowly boils. You know what, they're both really kind of extreme, no, they're not. No, they're not.

If you believe in America, is a place where rights are granted by God, not government.

Where property is yours. It is sacred!

The fruits of your labor belong to you. That we cannot pretend these are equal threats.

Because they're not. Because one man questions how much land the federal government should own.

The other questions whether you should be allowed to own anything at all!

If the government should not own everything!

Which one is dangerous? Which one snuffs out your rights?

It's not about land. This is all about economics. It's about freedom. And history has already told us where these roads lead.

One road leads to liberty. One road leads us to having a discussion and a debate.

Without calling each other names and killing one another.

The other road doesn't allow debate. And if you try to debate, you're disappeared, or you're killed! One leads in liberty, one ends in chains!

What do you say, we -- we have enough enemies. Why do we need to turn on ourselves? And do you think there's a possibility that the communist, the socialist, the anarchist, the Islamist will all band together, to destabilize the Middle East. Europe, come America to destabilize that, to end the Western world. Do you think there's a chance you're being played?

Because I do. And I refuse to be played. I'm not a moron. And neither are you.

See, here's the thing. This is why, when Ben Shapiro says, facts don't care about your feelings. This is why that's so important.

Because they've hit an emotional spot with you. They've hit a spot of, they're going to take my right away to fish or to hunt.

And that's not what he was doing. But that's what it turned out to be. Our sacred public lands.

It's not what he was talking about.

And if it was, he's not talking about it now.

He wants to make it very, very clear. Exactly what he was talking about.

But see, the idea of going hunting and fishing and hiking. And these glorious places.

We all love that.

I mean, I don't like to actually -- I like to hunt. I don't like to fish.

I don't like to be outside, really.

But I love the lands. I love to be in an air-conditioned car, driving through Yellowstone, going, wow. Look at that. And look at that moron, trying to feed the car, to feed the buffalo.

That's going to be fun to watch.

Why are we so emotional, about that? When it's not really what the argument is about. And it's coming from our friends, when we really should have listened more and had a conversation.

And we're not emotional about someone who says, the end goal is to seize production.

Seize the means of production.

That's Karl Marx!

Why is that one not emotional for us?

Why is it we cannot see the actual enemy?

Chalkboard Breakdown: How George Soros & the 'Deep State' funnel YOUR money to radical groups

Where do these massive left-wing radical groups get all their money from? Much of it is effectively a scam that occurs using your tax dollars to fund these groups that you would never support on your own. Glenn Beck heads to the chalkboard to expose the connections so you can visualize exactly how someone like George Soros manipulates the system.

You WON’T BELIEVE this leftist demand for ICE

As ICE agents continue to conduct immigration raids throughout the country, the Left is demanding that they be required to remove their masks and show their faces. Could this be because the Left wants to easily identify these agents so that they can dox them?

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: There's a couple of things going on. There's a new democratic-leaning activist group, that has now raised more than $750 for mobile response teams.

Now, I know we just talked about Mercury One and their mobile response teams, you know, going -- trying to help find bodies here in Texas.

There's is to confront immigration and customs enforcement during raids in California.

Organization is save America movement.

It's asking for your donation, so its teams can follow ICE raids in real time.

The group began launching its first political ads and social media accounts in June in a fundraising web page.

It shows, they wanted to raise $1 million for the anti-ICE initiative. So far, I believe they have, yes.

$764,254.

Quote, ICE agents are raiding LA in masks without badges, names, or accountability. These ICE agents don't have names, or badges. Really?

Wow. And they wear masks. I wonder why they might wear masks.

You know, maybe it's because the people on the streets are also wearing masks.

Now, why would the people on the streets be wearing masks, Pat. I'm trying to figure that one out. Why would they be wearing masks?

PAT: Perhaps they don't want to be identified.

GLENN: Don't want to be identified. Why?

PAT: They're committing illegal acts.

GLENN: Yeah. Good. Good. Good.

And they know if they're identified, then the good guys will come and arrest them. But seeing that they think they're the good guys, and the police are the bad guys. Why would the police be wearing masks?

Because the police know the bad guys will identify them, and come get them and their children at night.

There's one that's on the righteous side. One that is not on the righteous side. I'm trying to remember which one is which.

So the Save America Movement is launching its liberty vans. Mobile response teams with cameras, chaplains. Now, I'm just trying -- I'm just trying to imagine the chaplains that might be going with them.

Chaplains, lawyers, and veterans. To show the world what's happening in our communities.

What is happening in the communities? I'm wondering.

Now, the group announced its steering committee on June 18th. That includes Erica Alexander. Dr. Reverend William Barber. Ryan Busse. Steve Smith. And Billy Ray. These -- at least Alexander and Barber have spoken at the Democratic National Convention. Alexander campaigned for a -- the -- for Hillary Clinton. She was, you know, campaigning for Hillary Clinton. And, by the way, Hillary Clinton was so popular. She lost.

Schmitt was also the cofounder of the anti-Trump Lincoln project before stepping down in 2021.

So this is just the usual suspects. Do you remember, Pat, when we were working at Fox? And we were doing all that research?

And, remember, we would look into these organizations. Like, well, same 12 people. Every time. Same 12 people.

It was like, there were only like 25 to 50 revolutionaries that were actually. And then none of these guys were revolutionaries.

All of these guys were all political figures, that were all orchestrating and funding everything.

It was the revolutionaries that would be like, yeah.

You go out and do that!

Yeah. I'm going to be here. I've got your back.

I've got your back.

You should go out and blow yourself up.

I mean, it's -- it's the same thing with the mullahs.

The mullahs aren't ever the ones going out.

They're never like, and I'm going to show you how much I believe in this.

I'm going out and blowing myself up.

No. No. It's the same thing with the DNC.

All of these people, all behind the scenes, they're using you.

They don't know how you don't see that.

They're using you.

And, again, on the other hand, I don't see how the Democrats don't see, no!

The radicals now are using you.

Now the radicals are in charge. And be afraid. Be very afraid.

Because they're going to come for you. Before they come for me.

You think they're going to eat us first.

But, I mean, we had this story. What was it last week?

Did you see the story where -- where Democratic politicians are now saying, they're afraid of their own constituents?

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Right?

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Their own constituents are saying, maybe you should die, so we can get some attention to our cause.

You know, we need some blood to be spilled for a real revolution.

And the democratic politician was like, wait. Wait.

Wait. My blood.


PAT: And they got a little taste of that, during the Palestinian Israeli situation. Because err where Democrats went, they were committing genocide. Because they supported Israel.

So they got a little taste of -- of how the left could turn on them.

GLENN: I -- too we need to go through Minneapolis?

I mean, look what happened in Minneapolis.

I mean, I don't know -- do I have this -- where is it?

There's a story today, on the Minneapolis -- okay. Yeah.

Here.

The Minneapolis -- the Minnesota assassin Vance -- what is it?

Bolter said neither his pro-life worldview, nor his support for Donald Trump were motivations behind the deadly June 14th shooting rampage.

That left a top Democratic lawmaker dead, and another seriously wounded. Now, he's pro-life.
And he's a supporter of Donald Trump. Yet, he worked for the Democrats.

PAT: Uh-huh.

GLENN: Appointed by two Democratic governors, I believe.

GLENN: Yeah. And I'm trying to -- I'm trying to make that fit.

You're a pro-lifer that also is a big supporter of Donald Trump.

And you go to work for Tim Walz?

I'm just -- I mean, I know sometimes Common Core math hurts with be when you try to think.

But this one is almost impossible. Even -- even, even -- if I say you're right, if you just show me how you got there.

I don't think I can show you that you're right on that one.

He said, his pro-life worldview. Or his deep, deep support for Donald Trump were not motivations.

I'm going to let you chew on that for a while.

That's his quote for prison.

He's waiting for trial.

And the New York Post. Did an interview with him.

He said, you're fishing.

And I can't talk about my case.

I'll say, it didn't involve either Trump or pro-life us stuff.

I'll just say, there's a lot of information that will come out in the future. That people willing look at.

And judge for themselves.

That goes back 24 months before the 14th.
If the governor ever lets that get out.

Now, wait a minute. Tim Walz is the governor. He faces possible federal grand jury indictment this week, after being charged with six felonies, stalking and murder-related counts of killing, of the Democratic lawmaker.

And, by the way, if you're really -- if you're really on the right. Why would you kill the lawmaker that just voted with the Democrats?

Or, I'm sorry, just voted with the Republicans. She actually took a hard line, and a very hard decision, she didn't want to.

But she said, I just feel like, it's the right thing for the state. And it's killing me to vote this way. But I feel I really have to.

And so she does. And then this guy goes and kills her? Because he's such a big conservative?
What? Any of this makes sense to you?

PAT: None. No.

None of it.

GLENN: During two 20-minute video visits with the Post, he said police have withheld key details from his handwritten letter, left by the alleged person in a getaway car. Let's see. Alleged person.

I think that's his wife. The letter which has not been released is addressed to FBI director Kash Patel. My wife and family had nothing to do with any of this.

Certain details of that letter were leaked out. That probably painted one kind of a picture, but a lot more important details that were in that letter were not leaked out.

He refused to elaborate, saying the withheld details related to things that were going on in Minnesota. Huh.

PAT: Hmm.

GLENN: I also made sure, when I was arrested, that they secured that letter.

I made the request. That they secure that letter, before it gets destroyed.

Because I was concerned somebody would destroy it.

Police found a handwritten note in the suspect's fake police SUV with a hit list of more than 50 Democrat officials from at least six states.

Police found other notes with directions to the Hortman home, and a list of websites used to gather information on the targets.

Asked by the Post how he felt about the shooting victims and their families.

He said, you can maybe ask, if someone believes that. And they love God. And they love their neighbor.

Allegedly, how they could be involved in a situation where some people were no longer here that were here before.

But I'll let you chew on that one too.

PAT: It's so bizarre.

GLENN: A little nuts. A little nuts.

PAT: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: The letter left behind for the FBI, also alleged that they claimed Tim Walz told him to murder Amy Klobuchar. And others. So he could run for US Senate.

Now, I can believe a lot of things about Tim Walz. But I don't believe --

PAT: You don't buy that? Huh.

GLENN: No. I don't buy that.

You can believe a lot of stuff about Tim Walz, but no. No. I'm not going to buy that one.

He would not discuss his views or relationship with Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee.

PAT: Hmm.

GLENN: Walz appointed Boelter to a four-year term on the governor's workforce development board in December of 2019.

And then the mark Dayton. The -- also tempted Minnesota governor. Appointed him to another board. The same kind of board in 2016.

So the guy has been working for --

PAT: Democrats.

GLENN: For a very, very long time.

But pay no attention to that. Pay no attention to that.

Democrats, you're fine.

Your base isn't about to rise up and kill you.

Remember warning about this?

We -- in 2008 and '9. I was like, you cannot get into bed with crazy radicals.

You can't. Crazy, being part of the word.

Radical, the other important word.

In crazy radicals. They'll kill you!

When they don't think that you're taking this revolutionary -- revolution seriously enough, which is exactly what's happening.

ICE, they're now going out in the streets.

And they're -- they're shooting at ICE.

And they know that Donald Trump doesn't want them to do that. But you're on their side.

And let me see if anybody remembers where this line came from.

You betrayed the revolution. Oh, yeah. That's right. That's right. That's right.

Right at the gallows. I don't remember which country that was. Not the gallows. But guillotines.

You betrayed the revolution. That's what happens in revolutions. If you're not revolutionary enough for the most bloodthirsty, they come after you. And they come after you first!

That's what's coming, America.

What is happening -- and I will give you some other stories. What is happening on the streets right now, is a lead-up to serious, serious trouble on the streets. And a bloodbath on the streets.

Pray for our law enforcement.

Oh, no.

Don't even pray about that. Because what could possibly happen. If law enforcement decides, I'm not putting up with this anymore. Because the city will not support them.

What could possibly go wrong?

We have Elon Musk, and Grok four, and his robots all ready to go. He said last week, all I have to do now is download Grok four into the heads of my robots. And they will be able to take care of everything.

Wouldn't that be great?

We could have a robot police force.


PAT: That usually works out well. And all the documentaries I have seen, it works out really well.

GLENN: It always works out really well. Well, it didn't in iRobot. Remember?

PAT: Oh, that one document.

GLENN: Yeah. That one documentary.

But that's because, you know, they had m.-- you know, they had the four rules. Remember?

PAT: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: And the good news in RAI, we decided those four rules didn't need to be put in.

So we don't have those four rules in RAI, so I don't know why.

But probably wasn't going to work anyway.

Texas flood UPDATE: We have NEVER SEEN this before

A little over a week after the flooding in the Texas Hill Country, Mercury One executive director JP Decker joins Glenn Beck to describe what he saw on the ground. The state’s response, he says, was unlike anything he has ever seen, and President Trump’s impact was also incredible. But this is just the beginning of the recovery efforts …

100% of all donations given through Mercury One for the Texas flooding relief go to help the community recover.

GLENN: Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. More rains in Texas, which, I mean, Texas, I've never seen Texas this green, not this time of year.

Oh, my gosh, it's lush. It's beautiful here.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Yesterday, I was down -- downtown in a place called Highland Park.

And I saw all these green ribbons around the tree.

And my first reaction was, yellow ribbon.

Who is?

And then my next reaction was like, all right. What does the green ribbon mean? And then I realized, oh, this is for all the loss of life here in Florida, in the last flood.

And J.P. Decker is with us now, who is -- runs Mercury One. And, hey, J., welcome.

J.P.: Thank you, it's good to be here.

GLENN: First time, J.P. ever -- we've known each other how long?

J.P.: Fourteen, fifteen years. Something like that. Low number there.

GLENN: Yeah, I know. I lose track of time. But you -- for the very first time, you wrote to me, on day one, and I said, what's happening with the floods?

And you said, we're just staying out of the way. What?

For the first time ever, since Mercury One has been doing this. He said, the state has this so buttoned up, we just want to stay out of the way.

So we were just feeding people.

J.P.: Yeah. We were working with our partners. We didn't want to get in the way of search-and-rescue.

As you were saying, the loss of life on this one, it was horrific. To see what these kids went through.

GLENN: Do you know what the loss of life was, Pat? Off the top of your head?
PAT: Last I saw was 129.

J.P.: Yeah, I think it's about 130, 140 now. And they're still missing...

PAT: Still missing over 100. 150.

J.P.: Over 100. It's horrific.

GLENN: It's horrific.

J.P.: And they just had flooding again, so that means everything moves down more.

That first week. We took a week, when it came down. Because we wanted to stay out of the way. There were too many people, with the loss of life. And the search-and-rescue.

GLENN: Is this our footage?

J.P.: This is some of the drone footage. What's amazing about this, that's not even the river. That's right next to the river.

GLENN: This was a runoff?

J.P.: Yeah. This is a runoff. What's interesting though, walking through this area, there's just regular locals. And probably people from all around Texas, just searching.

I mean, they brought their own shovels. They brought their own pickaxes. They're just trying to help --

GLENN: How do you search and stuff like -- you're washed down. And you were probably. I mean, bodies would be swept up in the logs.

J.P.: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: Silt.

J.P.: There's search-and-rescue teams from all over the country. And that's, again, we saw that in North Carolina.

GLENN: Look at that. If you happen to be watching on the Blaze, it's -- I mean, this is footage that Mercury One just brought back. And is that the runoff, or is that the river?

J.P.: That is the river right there.

And right in that area, we are helping the little town because there were about 26 homes that were hit pretty hard by it. So we're helping that area provide, you know, the sheetrock and everything they need to kind of rebuild. But the day before we were in that neighborhood, about 200 yards away, they found two adults and a little 9-month-old.

PAT: Oh, jeez.

J.P.: And that's a week after that.

PAT: There's still 101 people missing. 132 confirmed dead and 101 missing. This is unbelievable.

J.P.: It's horrific.

And it's interesting, just talking with some of the locals, about what they're going through. And almost everyone said, we're Texans. We will get through it. And then when you -- we talked to all of our partners. And they said, this is unlike any disaster we've ever seen. Some of them have been doing it for 15, 20 years.

They said, the response from the administration helped us to be able to help them long-term.

And --

GLENN: You mean administration.

The state --

J.P.: The state and federal.

Because they sent the National Guard. But also the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard got there within no time.

We saw the story about the diver.

It's cool to see when administrations do the job. But we as Mercury One.

You know, we as Mercury One.

We always challenge. We were there, talking with people.

Last week, we kind of said, hey. We will need -- we challenged our donors, a million dollars.

When we say that, our people know, that we do not take admin costs.

It's not saying, hey, help us keep the lights on. To help people.

It's literally a million dollars to help people in the hill country.

As soon as we got to the hill country, we got a text from our team saying, within 48 hours, the donors raised a million dollars. And usually with that, we do have to pay credit card fees. But the donors chose to pay $25,000 of fees to go help these people. And I think that alone tells you, one, how amazing our donors are, but how amazing your listeners are. Because they believe and they trust what we're doing with the funds.

GLENN: I have to tell you, J.P., I am so proud of Mercury One.

And I'm so proud of what you have created. It's -- I mean, you were there, and you are the first in, the last out, every time.

J.P.: Yep.

GLENN: And it's just so good.

J.P.: It's so good to see -- to have a nonprofit where you can honestly say, we're going to help you. And we will be there.

And unfortunately, we kept hearing, as soon as the president left, which so glad he was there.

And a lot of the NGOs left. And as soon as the cameras left, they left. And so we kept hearing this from all of our partners.

And thank God, when we choose a partner, we go through a long dating period, and we make sure that they are vetted and taken care of.

But they're staying. We're staying for a long time.

I mean, I just got an update this morning. We're up to almost 150 homes, rebuilt in North Carolina. Our goal is 400 over the next two years.
And 100 percent of the funds that came in last year, go to help those people. And it's just so --

GLENN: Do we have the money for 400 houses?

J.P.: Because of the donors last year, we're very close to being able to cover all of it. So same thing with North Texas.

We will be there for a long time, helping to rebuild these homes. Even though, you're in the main area, the main town.

You see people kind of going about their business, going to a local store, buying some plants. But then you go right around the corner, and the destruction starts. And so the difference with North Carolina, the infrastructure was gone. And no one was coming in to help them.

Here, there's power in the buildings. The businesses are being run. It's the loss of life, and homes that are gone. There are so many mobile homes that are just destroyed. We talked to one mom that lost her husband.

And she and her kids are just living on a couch. So we're helping provide hotel rooms. We're also looking at helping to pay for the funerals of some of these kids. And some of these families.

Because they don't have the funds for it.

And, again, we're seeing that most people did not have flood insurance, in this area. And insurance companies have already denied a couple of people, that we've reached out to, which amazingly they responded that fast. And we're going to help.
We are going to help rebuild.

Because we want this area to be the hill country again. We don't want it to be anything else.
We don't want people to come in and take over the land, like we've seen some of that in Lahaina.

GLENN: You see that now in Los Angeles.

J.P.: Oh, Los Angeles is a nightmare.

GLENN: Oh, yeah, it's the state and city coming in.

And we told you that is going to happen.

That is your plan. That is a plan that was on the books.

PAT: Low-income housing in Pacific Palisades.

GLENN: Yeah, no, no, no.

But they're also -- they're also buying it up and preserving now, like exactly what they were doing in Lahaina. We said that was going to happen.

And we were like, we can't live there anymore.

J.P.: We need to build like a green space to make sure it's really taken care of.

GLENN: Wow.

J.P.: But we helped in Los Angeles as well.

With generators to the local churches. And we're helping, because of what some of our donors did, rebuild some of those local churches, that were destroyed. And no insurance.

And not to say, no one is going to help them.

It's just, there's so many little stories, that we can tell for generations about what Mercury One has done.

GLENN: It's really an amazing thing.

And, you know, I'm amazed at how well the money is managed.

And how far you guys make this money go.

It is really remarkable.

J.P.: Takes an amazing team.

GLENN: Yeah. And I know we have some announcements coming.

And I'm really excited.

J.P.: Me too.

GLENN: Next year will be a really exciting year for Mercury One.

Thank you.

J.P.: Thank you.

GLENN: If you want to get involved, all you have to do is go to MercuryOne.org.

MercuryOne.org.

When there's a disaster, we're there.

And I will tell you, I don't know if either one of you know why I say, 100 percent goes -- when we raise something like this, it goes to whatever it is we're talking about.

You want to raise something. You want to give something now to Texas.

You go to the website.

And say, I want to help this disaster.

And it 100 percent goes there.

Do you know why that is?

To an what happened?

What gave me this idea years ago?

It was right after 911.

And it was a year after.

And remember all of the fundraisers of the Red Cross did.

St. Paul of these big shows.

And we raised all this money.

And I find out about a year later, that they spent I can't remember.

It was -- it was just around a million dollars, I think.

On a new phone system.


PAT: I remember that.

GLENN: You remember that? It was the Red Cross.

And I lost my mind.

Like, you're kidding me, right?

We stood in line, to give blood.

We gave money. We wanted to make sure it was going to the firefighters.

It was going to rebuild, whatever.

And you bought a new phone system with that money.

And it drove me out of my mind.

And I said, if I ever started a charity.

Actually, it wasn't even that.

It was, I want to find the charity that will guarantee me, that none of that crap comes out of the money I'm giving.

I'm not giving so you can get a new phone system. Raise that another way.

J.P.: It's still hard to find that kind of a nonprofit.

PAT: Oh, really hard. And anybody who does over 60 percent, is usually unusual. If 60 percent of your donation goes to where you intend for it to go and then 40 percent administration, that's unusual.

GLENN: Well, everything that we raise, right?

Can we say this? Right? Everything that we raise, when it is earmarked. We have a general fund. And we mark that clearly. That this is to keep the lights on.

But that's why we usually do these fundraisers. But everything -- everything goes right directly to the source.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: That's unheard of.

PAT: It's incredible.

GLENN: Thank you. Appreciate it.
It's MercuryOne.org. MercuryOne.org. And thank you, as an audience, you amaze me. You truly amaze me.

You give me so much hope.

That there are -- there's good, profound -- profound good left in this country.

And every day -- you know, I don't open up the mail and see the checks.

I do get a report, you know, every quarter when the board meets. And I see, it's not coming in, in -- you know, 100,000-dollar chunks. It's coming in, in ten, 20, 50, 100 dollar chunks.

People who are just -- they don't have the money to give big.

It's just so many people, just doing what they can. And I wish I could share -- I wish I could share that hope with you. I wish you could see what I see from my vantage point. It's remarkable what this audience really is.

Has Elon Musk Gone TOO FAR with Insane New 'GROK 4' AI System?

Elon Musk's new Grok 4 Artificial Intelligence has again accelerated the technological arms race which may soon become beyond our control. Glenn Beck breaks down what’s coming in the next year with AI, which even Elon Musk called “terrifying.”

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Last night, Elon Musk is touting this -- this AI.

And all of the solutions.

And then he says.

Hmm. Probably three times.

Something like this.

And I'm quoting. This is one of them.

It's somewhat unnerving to have created intelligence that's greater than our own.

He then goes on to call it terrifying, twice.

Now, this is a man who has launched rockets, you know, into orbit.

Going to Mars.

And he says, twice!

You know, after he sees the results of it. He says, you know, it's really -- in a way, quite terrifying to see what it's doing.

But we just have to make sure that it remains good!

Oh, okay.

All right. Sure.

Now, the key point in the announcement was the mention of ARC-AGI.

I had never heard of ARC-AGI. I had no idea what it was. But I noticed AGI. And I went, uh-oh. That sounds important. So this is the gold standard. The bench mark testing for artificial general intelligence.

Okay.

As I've said before, AGI. Artificial General Intelligence is a machine that matches all human cognition, across all domains.

Reasoning, creativity.

Problem solving. Not just specialized tasks like playing Go or analyzing x-rays. Everything. For instance, Musk said by mid-next year to the latest end of next year, it will be able to create a full length movie, just from a text prompt.
And do it all at once!

So, in other words, it will say, create a movie, and you just explain the Godfather.

It will do the casting. It will do the writing. It will do the filming, if you will. It will -- score the music, and it will happen that fast.

Almost in realtime. We are nowhere near the computational power now, to do that separately.

But this will do it all at once. It will make a movie with all of it, simultaneously.

So the arc AGI system is the benchmark on how close we are to AGI. Remember, scary things happen at AGI.

Terrifying things happen at ASI. ASI could be a matter of hours, or days after we hit AGI.

Grok 4 scored 16.2 percent on the ARC-AGI scale.

Why is that important? You're like, well, only 16 percent away.

Because last time, it barely broke 8 percent.

And that -- they took that test, last time with Grok three.

And it took us forever to get to 8 percent.

Now, what is it? A year later.

We're at 16 percent. Remember, these things are not linear. The next time, we could be at 32, we might be at 64.

We are on the verge. This is the last year of -- I can't believe I'm saying this. Of normalcy. Okay?

This year is -- we're going to look back at this year, probably two years ago, gosh, remember the good old days, when everything was normal.

And you could understand everything.

This is how close we are!

Everything you and I talked about last night, Stu, about what we're doing in January, make -- put -- does it make it even more critical that that happens like, oh, I don't know.

Right now.

STU: Yeah. For sure.

GLENN: You are going to need to know your values, your ethics, your rights.

You are going to need to know absolutely everything.

Now, Grok 4 is not true AGI yet.

It lacks the full autonomy and the generalized reasoning of a human mind. But it is the closest that we've come.

It's a system that can adapt, innovate, at a level that outpaces specialized AIs by a wide margin.

This is a milestone. This is not a destination, but it's something that should jolt everybody awake. So here's what's coming over the next six months. By December 2025, that's this Christmas!

December 2025, he believes, Musk, that Grok 4, will drive breakthroughs in material sciences.

So, in other words, imagine a new -- brand-new alloy, that is lighter than aluminum. Stronger than steel.

And it revolutionizes aerospace and everything else, or a drug that halts Alzheimer's progression, tailored to a person's DNA.

Grok will drive breakthroughs through material science. So brand-new materials that nobody has ever thought of.

Pharmaceuticals that we never thought could be made.

And chemical engineering, putting together chemicals that no man has ever thought.

That's going for happen by December.

Imagine a chemical compound that makes carbon capture, economically viable. The climate change stuff, that's over.

It will be over.

Because this will solve that! These are not fantasies.

This is Grok 4.

Musk said something that he never thought. He believes that within the next year, by 2027, Grok 4 will uncover new physical laws.

So that will rewrite the understanding -- our understanding of the entire universe.

That there will come -- like there's gravity. Hey, you know what, there's another law here that you never thought of. Wait. What?

That, he says, will come by 2027. This is going to accelerate human discovery, at an unprecedented scale.

I told you, at some point. I said, by 2030. It might be a little earlier than that.

Things will be happening at such a fast rate, you won't be able to keep up with them.

And it will accelerate to the point to where you won't even understand what all of this means.

Or what the ramifications are!

Are you there yet?
