What Trump MUST Do to Eliminate the Cartels

The New York Times has once again made Glenn question its sanity. It recently released a piece arguing that if Trump stops the Mexican drug cartels, it could hurt the American economy! Okay then … Instead of that nonsense, Glenn breaks down what he believes Trump MUST do to eliminate the cartels, which have poisoned Americans with fentanyl, killed Americans, and trafficked people within our nation. So, maybe instead of being sympathetic to the cartels, Trump should treat them like Al Qaeda and ISIS: “You are going to see death and destruction of these cartels.”

Stu, I just want to give you this. And tell me, how you get here.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: New York Times. Mexican drug cartels are responsible for the untimely deaths of hundreds of thousands of people over the past few decades. When factoring in the fentanyl, they smuggle into the United States, cartels are also culpable for the deaths of over 200 Americans every day.

They deal with murder and addiction, mass kidnappings, rape, torture, political intimidation, yada, yada.

But the New York Times has a concern about the economic impact of Trump's plan to identify and hold the cartels responsible.

STU: Oh, no!

GLENN: Now, I'm trying to think about the positive impact the New York Times might have found with the cartels. I mean, job creators?

STU: Yes. Yes. Absolutely.

GLENN: Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

STU: You've got that.

GLENN: They're kind of in the medical business.

Kind of!

STU: The medical -- okay.

GLENN: Well, they're kind of pharmaceutical companies.

STU: Sure. Sure. You can treat certain ailments with their products.

GLENN: They're into the entertainment business.

STU: Yes!

GLENN: Tell you the entertainment. Or child entertainment.

STU: Depends on how you want to be entertained.

GLENN: Sure. Sure.

STU: Would we get any good movies or music, if there were no drugs in this country.

Probably not. That's going to be. Hollywood is in trouble.

GLENN: Hollywood changed.

STU: Are they trying to say basically, these cartels are used as coyotes, essentially. And the people who are coming in for free, cheap labor. Free or cheap labor.

Won't be coming in anymore.

That hurts our economy.

Again, I don't think that's a good argument. Is that what they're trying to get to?

GLENN: What they're saying is, this will be hard on the banks. This will be hard on the banks.

STU: Why would cartels going away, be hard on banks?

GLENN: Well, because the banks are going to be responsible for knowing if your client is a part of a drug cartel. And, you know --

STU: Okay. So what additional -- I mean, is this going to cause additional layers of paperwork for everybody, essentially?

GLENN: I don't know. I guess.

STU: And not just cartels. But, you know, for your friendly neighborhood drug dealer.

GLENN: You know, I -- I think, I mean, if you're in that business. You probably aren't using a bank. You know what I mean?

Now, if you're using a cartel. You want to use the banks. If you're coming in, you know, every year with $1.5 billion, or, you know, even have holdings of a trillion dollars, you know, I might want to ask, how are you doing that?

I'm in the import/export business. I would like a little bit more.

You know, you also put down, you're in the entertainment industry, and pharmaceuticals. But I haven't seen anything on the shelves.

From you.

STU: Now, Elizabeth Warren has reliably told me that criminals only use cryptocurrency. So maybe that -- why would they need the banks?

I don't understand. Why would it affect the banks in any way?

GLENN: I don't know. I don't know.

You know, as I said yesterday. If I were an entrepreneur, and I were in Mexico, I might start coffins.com. You know, because I think there is going to be a run on coffins. And, you know, as long as Gavin Newsom isn't in there, he won't put a, well, there's a coffin shortage. So let's not raise the price of coffins. He's not going to do that.

You can price on demand, I'm guessing, in Mexico. So when there's a rush on coffins, because I don't know. Our special forces have killed all of the people in the drug cartels. You can make some money.

STU: What's your impression on what Trump actually does here? We talked a little bit about what happened yesterday. What's the specific plan?

I know you don't -- you're not going to reveal anything.

GLENN: Because I don't -- I -- I --

STU: You have thoughts and impressions, let's say.

GLENN: Thoughts and impressions.

STU: What are you -- when basing this completely on your thoughts and impressions.

GLENN: Yes. And not anything else.

STU: What would be the approach here to take out the cartels in Mexico?

GLENN: He would assign people to make a list of who those terrorists are.

STU: Will they be checking it twice?

GLENN: They will check it twice.

STU: Will they find out who is naughty or nice?

GLENN: That's what they're looking for now. And then they will give it to the president. And then they will say, here's the case against these guys. And this cartel. And many other cartels.

And the president will say, what do you recommend?

And they say, we go in at night, with our -- you know, night vision.

And we kill them all.

And he says, okay.

And so then we go in at night, and kill them all. And in the morning, everybody wakes up, surprised, because they're dead. Called coffins.com.

STU: Okay. And it just leaves like a -- like a rotating, just a repeating ad on the television for coffins.com.

GLENN: Coffins.com. Are you a member of the cartel?

You might be -- you might consider becoming a franchisee owner of coffins.com.

Yeah. I think that's what he's going to do. He's not going to play around. You will see death and destruction of these cartels, and, you know, I don't -- I don't -- I would be shocked to find out if that was our Special Forces, doing that.

Gosh darn it.

STU: Yeah. That would be a shocking thing.

So it's an essentially undercover plan. Where you're sending undercover people.

GLENN: I'm not sure how he will do it. If it's undercover. Or it might be Survivor. Except it's a real kind of situation. This week on Survivor, who will survive in this cartel?

STU: Do you have the -- maybe -- do you have some sort of arrangement with the Mexican government on this.

Like, do you say to them, look, we're coming in, whether you like it or not.

GLENN: He already did. He already said that.

STU: He said that. But there's a certain level of Donald Trump saying things in a negotiation.

GLENN: I don't think there are.

Like yesterday. Yesterday, at the WEF. They asked the president of Panama. You know, are you worried about the president just taking the Panama Canal. And he said, get serious. Please, get serious. I think Donald Trump might be serious about that one. Not Greenland.

He never said he will take Greenland or Canada. Even though, the Canada one would be easy.

He's not doing that. But he's very clear. I am going to kill the cartels. Because they're terrorist operations. And they're operating here in the United States. And causing pain and suffering.

Soil kill them all.

STU: He's designating them terrorist groups. And we know what's happening with al-Qaeda and whatever. When you designate a terrorist group. What you consider. And other countries don't consider the legal authority to do this type of thing.

GLENN: Right. Because Mexico no longer has the legal authority to do anything. Because they're run by the cartels.

Soul see a lot of feigned outrage at the beginning. Until he gets rid of the cartels, and then they will go, thank you.

STU: Well, that's what I wonder.

Because we've had this relationship with certain other countries, where we've gone to them, and said, hey, we're doing this, whether you like it or not. And they -- some of them are angry and outraged.

But a lot of them are like, oh, no. You shouldn't.

If you need to know where they are, let me know. They would love to get rid of this problem.

And depending on who you're talking about in the Mexican government, you like to get rid of this. Because they're challenging your power essentially.

GLENN: The people will be very happy. The people in Mexico will be very, very happy.

STU: Right.

GLENN: And so it's not going to be real unpopular in Mexico with the average, everyday people.

STU: But what would be unpopular. Let's just say we had a problem with, you know, I don't know. Cartels in our country. And the Mexican government was upset with the reverse situation happening.

They're crossing the border. Doing all these terrible things.

They send in their Special Forces into our country without our approval. We're a sovereign nation. Right?

We would be upset about it.

GLENN: Yeah, we would be upset.

STU: Now, we're the big boys on the streets. So we don't have to care necessarily about that?

GLENN: Let's actually flip that. Okay?

Let's say we were in the situation that Mexico is in. Where we tried to vote mayors in. We tried to vote governors in.

And they're just slaughtered in the streets because they say, I'm taking on the cartels.

STU: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: And they slaughter everyone in -- in government that is even whispering about that.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: So we've tried to vote them out. And we as people, know that our government is now in bed with the cartels. And it's getting worse and worse and worse.

And Mexico says, you know what, enough of these cartels, they are you hurting our people.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And so we will come across the border. And we will take care of them, because you won't. Would you really be upset. Oh, my gosh. They're violating our borders.

I would be all for it, quietly.

STU: Right. That's the part I think is interesting.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: I think if I were the president of the United States. And in this situation. And the president of Mexico says, we've got these great Special Forces, we're coming in and taking them out. Whether you like them or not.

That's what I would say. Because as a country, you can't just give your nation to the other nation. Right?

Like, if we have the authority to cross the border. And they just are like, yeah, please, any time. You can come over and police in our country, please do so. Then they're not a sovereign nation.

GLENN: Yeah, we're not policing.

STU: Kind of, we are. Just a very aggressive form --

GLENN: No. This is an international terrorist group that is crossing our borders.

STU: It's still a form of law enforcement.

GLENN: Yeah, it is.

STU: But you would maybe say, we would never allow that. But you would want it to occur. And you would encourage it and assist it any way possible.

GLENN: Yes. And you would take note of everyone who opposed it, strongly, and meant it. You would be like, okay. They're part of it. I've got it.

STU: They're part of it. Right. And you would probably be right.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: So I hope that's what Mexico does.

I just don't know -- this woman who is trying to get into little peeing contests with Donald Trump over these types of things. I don't think that's a good approach.

GLENN: No, this isn't a little peeing thing.

STU: That's what she's doing.

Oh, yeah. Well, if you're going to rename the Gulf of Mexico, we will look at this region. This is actually ours, or whatever she's trying to pull.

GLENN: We're going to stop sending you sombreros. Okay. Whatever.

STU: There was a sombrero threat.

GLENN: I don't know if that's really that damaging.

STU: That's what she was doing. Essentially, she was acting like a guest on The View. Oh, yeah. Well, I'm a strong woman. And look at me, I will rename your -- stop it.

That nonsense. If that's what she decides to be, she probably won't do it this way.

She probably will complain about it.

GLENN: Correct. And if she is corrupt and in bed with the cartels, the people of Mexico will decide that, after all of the pressure is off, because we've killed the cartels.

STU: I hope that --

GLENN: I think there is -- they're going to try cause problems in here. But I have to tell you, you have no idea, what you're up against with the United States military.

Our Special Forces. You have no idea. Well, these are highly trained.

Are they? Uh-huh. No. No. No. I will put my money on the US Special Forces. And I don't think they're going to win in that fight.

STU: Let me ask you this. Related question.

We've complained a lot about DEI and the military.

That the military has gone soft. That we've had all these problems.

Pete Hegseth wrote a book about it. He's an essential part of why he's going into this role.

Are we too far gone? Is it possible that we don't have enough of the -- of what we need in the military to accomplish these tasks anymore?

GLENN: For Mexico? No.

STU: We're okay.

GLENN: No. For multiple fronts? Yes.

For our Special Forces, for our teams to go in, in the dead of night and kill all these people, no. That's not beyond.

STU: We're still prepared for that. Good to hear.

Exposing the dangerous roots of queer theory

In this explosive conversation, Glenn Beck and Liz Wheeler expose the disturbing roots of gender ideology and queer theory — and how these radical ideas are directly targeting children. From the shocking origins of queer theory, where pedophilia and child pornography were openly defended, to Planned Parenthood’s new role as one of the largest distributors of transgender hormone therapy, the truth is undeniable: this movement is not about freedom or equality, but about dismantling families, corrupting innocence, and profiting off of our children’s pain. What we are witnessing is nothing less than a satanic ideology dressed up as compassion — and it’s spreading like wildfire through schools, culture, and medicine. Parents, you need to hear this. The time to protect your children and fight back is NOW.

Here’s how INTENSE JFK’s Presidential Fitness Test was

President Trump recently signed an executive order to reinstate the Presidential Fitness Test and the media is in a frenzy. But Glenn and Stu look back at the history of these tests, including JFK’s version of the Test that seems IMPOSSIBLE for modern Americans. But Glenn has a secret reason for why he’s confident in his pull-up abilities…

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: What is the -- what is the new physical -- the president's physical fitness, you know, plan?

STU: Well, the thing that RFK Jr and Hegseth were rolling out the other day. I don't know if it was the full test or anything, but they were issuing a challenge to America, to be able to do 100 pushups and 50 pullups within five minutes.

GLENN: That's crazy.

STU: Thank you! That struck you as also crazy.

I don't think there's ever been a time in my life, that I could do that. Let alone now with shoulder problems. And much too much weight.

GLENN: All right. But that was before I needed this walker.

STU: I don't think there was a time in my 20s or my teens, that I could do that. But that -- in five minutes? Fifty pullups?
GLENN: Both of them in 5 minutes.
STU: Yeah, both of them. So it's not like 100 pushups in five minutes. It's both tasks within five minutes.

GLENN: No. No. That's not true.

STU: RFK Jr. is just doing it in jeans.

GLENN: Yeah, well, RFK, he's -- he's a weirdo. I mean, he is. Come on. When it comes to fitness, he's a weirdo.
STU: Yes.
GLENN: I mean, he's done this his whole life. He's like 800 years old. He can still do it.

STU: Yes. Depressive, I will say.

GLENN: I don't know. He's a sex machine.

STU: Oh. That's been a problem for him. Yes, that's been an issue in his life. Yes.

GLENN: Okay. All right. Go ahead.

STU: Separate from the president's physical fitness test.

GLENN: Right.

STU: But, I mean, they don't, they don't really think we're going to do that, right?
Like, I mean, how long would that take you to do?

STU: I think for me, it would take a good month. I think a month, I could probably get two pullups a day. That would get me around, a little over 50. So I could do that. Plus, the pushups. A solid month, I could get that done.

GLENN: You could do more than two a day. You could do more than two a day.

STU: You know, Glenn, I've got to say. I think -- I will throw a number out there. No science behind this, so just as a guestimate.

I would say 40 percent of the population can't do any pullups. Maybe 30 percent. Thirty percent of the population can do exactly zero pullups. Precisely zero, so an infinite amount of time would be a correct answer for a third of the population.

GLENN: I think you're -- I think you're being -- I think you're being a little too optimistic. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. Maybe 60 percent.

STU: Right! Pushups are one thing. I mean, I think almost anyone can do a pushup. One --

GLENN: You can do a pushup. Yes. Yes.

STU: Singular pushup. And if you can do one, you can wait long enough, to do a second one.
And at some point, the hundred gets done. That's not the case with pullups. Pullups, you can sit there and think about how much you want to do a pullup for a really long time. But that doesn't make a pullup happen. If you've got a certain amount of weight on you. You're not doing a pullup. It's not occurring.

GLENN: I have no idea, how many pullups I can do.

STU: I have an exact number of pullups, you can do.

GLENN: Do you? You think so?

STU: Yeah. Yeah. I have the exact number. I have to calculate -- AI has been running a report on me. It came up with zero.

GLENN: Right. Right. Really?
I can do. I mean, this is so pathetic. Listen to this. I bet I could do three. You know, you could do three.

STU: In a row? Proper form.

GLENN: What do you mean in a row?

STU: I mean, holding on to the bar, without letting go, you're doing three. There's no way. I don't think so.

GLENN: I think I could do. Well, with proper form, I don't know about that. I don't know about that.

STU: I'm not saying it has to look pretty. You have to get your chin up above the bar. It can't be one of those things, where you're a quarter of the way up there.

GLENN: So I can do one and rest for ten minutes. I could do another one.

I think I can do that.

STU: If you -- I'm not saying, you jump up, and you pull yourself up as you're pulling up. Full hang --

GLENN: See, you may not know this.

But you know what, I've done the DNA test. Have you ever done the DNA test that tells you all about your genes and everything else? Mine came back with something remarkable, and I have to share. You might feel bad, next.

STU: Coming up next, Glenn attempts live pullups on the air. Stay tuned!
(OUT AT 8:29 AM)

GLENN: You know no idea what who you're dealing with. No. You don't have any idea who you're dealing with here.

I got my DNA test back like 10 years ago. And we all -- we all took it, because we were looking for things. And so we all took it. My DNA test came back, and everybody in the family, their test made total sense. Like, oh, yeah. That makes...

Then we read mine. We have to find -- I have to find. See if Tania has it still. We should have had it framed. I swear to you, they -- they mixed me up with somebody else.

Somebody else is like, wait a minute. I'm this pathetic? Mine came out and said, you have the muscular structure of a -- of a -- something like a -- an elite athlete. You have the abilities and agility and everything else of an elite athlete. And I'm like, there's not a chance. I don't have any of that!

I don't even know if I have muscles. I have to check once in a while, and go, do I have muscles still?

Doctor is like, I don't know. Can I? Ask just press against my hand on the leg. I don't know.

You know, I don't know how to do that exactly. So --

STU: You sure it said elite athlete and not elephant? I mean, if they misspelled it.

GLENN: It was.

I was having eye problems at the time.

STU: No!

GLENN: I mean, we read it. And I was like Tania, I believe that for Tania.

Maybe they switched me and Tania. Because Tania is really strong. She'll kick your butt.

She works out every day. All of that. Me? Never. Never.

And it kind of makes me wonder, when I get to the other side, and the Lord went, okay.

So what did you do with your life again?

Because I gave this incredible body, and you wasted it the whole time.

And I'm like, you should have been more clear, okay?

You should have been more clear. I -- maybe I could have played basketball. But I tried once. And it was embarrassing. It was embarrassing. It was like sixth grade. And I'll never live -- I don't even want to think about my time on a basketball court. Okay? So don't -- don't start with me. You should have made it a little clearer. When I first started to do stuff. And I think that's fair. I think that's a fair argument. In my defense. In my defense, Your Honor, God, you should have made it a little more clear.

STU: Yeah. I mean, if they really wanted us to do this, then the 11th Commandment is 50 pushups, and -- or, 50 pullups and 100 pushups, right?

Like, put it in a commandment if you really want us to do it. You have to be more specific, we're Americans.

GLENN: Okay. So let me give you the top of the list for the JFK Presidential Fitness Test. Okay? This is what you had to do in high school. In high school.

Thirty-four pullups. Bar dips: Fifty-two. What's -- because I believe I did that. A long time. And I don't recommend it.

STU: It's not a barhop.

GLENN: Oh, it's -- oh, bar dips. Okay. Okay. All right.

Bar dips: 52. Handstand pushups: Fifty. What are handstands?

STU: Oh, my God. Handstands.

GLENN: I can't even stand on my hands. Is that I'm doing a handstand and a push up? Because that's not happening. You're not human.

STU: Yeah. You're balancing yourself on your hands. Your feet are above your hands on the wall. Like a wall. And you're doing --

GLENN: Oh, so you're balancing yourself. That makes it a little easier. Still impossible.

But a little easier.

GLENN: Impossible. You could do precisely zero of those.

Aright. So you had to do 50 handstand pushups.

Or one arm -- 30 -- no, sir.

Twenty-six one-arm burpees in 30 seconds. Is that a one-armed push up?

STU: No. Well, you're bracing your yourself like you're about to begin a pushup in a burpee with only one arm, which that's not that difficult.

But then you're doing. Then you're like, you move your feet towards your hands. And then you jump up in the air basically. And then you do it repeatedly.

GLENN: No, no, no. That's ridiculous. No.

STU: There's a law of gravity. You're not supposed to violate it. If it was a recommendation of gravity, then maybe jumping would be appropriate. But it's not. Follow the law.

GLENN: In 48 seconds, you had to do a 3300-yard shuttle. Now, I've been to the airport. I think I've done a 3300-yard shuttle, but it depends on who is driving. You know.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Rope climb. Try this. Rope climb. Twenty feet, hands only! Sit start.

STU: That's what I remember from the president's physical fitness test. And I remember looking at that rope, like, no chance I could get up that thing.

GLENN: I remember looking up at that thing. Humiliation. Humiliation is coming my way. I'll never kiss a girl, because that ain't happening. I'll get maybe 10 feet up. Maybe. Maybe.

STU: And you were right for 24 years from that time, approximately.

GLENN: Agility run, 17 seconds. Extension pressups, what? What?

I'm sorry. Why am I so tired reading this?

Extension pressups. What's an extension pressup, 8-inch? You had to do 100 of them.

STU: Let's see. Exercise. An exercise for low-back pain involving lying on your stomach and pressing your upper body up with your arms while keeping your hips relaxed and down on the mat.

GLENN: Oh, I could do that know. 8 inches.

STU: The last part of it, relaxing down on the mat.
GLENN: That's what my doctor says I should be doing. What?

STU: I can do relaxed and down on the mat. That part of it --

GLENN: Yeah. I could do that -- I'm the only guy. I took yoga for a while, like three weeks. My wife is like, yoga. You could do yoga. Let's just do yoga together.

I did. And the yoga instructor said to me. Because we were doing a plank.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And she came and all I remember her waking me up. And saying, I think you're the only person I've ever -- ever taught that fell asleep in yoga. And I'm like, it's just so relaxing. Just let me sleep. Let me sleep.

STU: That's interesting, that you did yoga. Is there any footage of that? Any video that we could post? That would be good for --

GLENN: No. There's not. You had to do pegboard. Five trips of pegboard. And I think that's when you have the two pegs.

STU: Yes, it was a board.

GLENN: You have to take it out, and put it up, right?

STU: This is American Ninja Warrior. No way.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

STU: This is amazing.

GLENN: Try this one: You had to do a 45-second handstand. I've never been able to do a handstand. Never!

STU: Never.

GLENN: And I'm an elite athlete. I'm an elite athlete. Try this one: A man carry, 5 miles.

STU: What? What do you mean a --

GLENN: Five-mile man carry.

STU: Is a man carry as obvious as it --

GLENN: I think it is.

STU: You're carrying --

GLENN: If I'm going to carry that man, you have to carry me that man for five miles.

I'm not sure, I can't carry any man for any miles. I mean, if I am -- if I am a firefighter, count on burning in the house. You're going to burn in the house. Because I can't carry you out. I can get in there and go, yeah, I will have to leave you.
I will have to leave you here. I can't help you, sorry.

It's also getting really hot in here. I have to go. You had to do a five-mile jog. An obstacle course.

You had to swim prone for a mile. You had to swim underwater for 50 yards, any strokes, two minutes. Deep waterfront, hang float, with arms. What? What is a deep water hang float with arms. Wait. Wait.

It's a deep waterfront hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes.

What kind of al-Qaeda PE class was this?

STU: Who has access to -- who has access -- like, you're in the middle of the country, you may not have a deep water body nearby. This is -- are you sure this is an actual test?

GLENN: This is the actual test. This is the actual -- what is a deep water front hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes? Can you look that up?

STU: A deep water hang float is an aquatic hang float done in the deep end of a pool with the aid of flotation device, such as a noodle or belt.

In this position, the flotation twice supports your upper body, while your legs and torso hang freely beneath you.

That can't be what it is.

GLENN: You can do that.

Deep-end of the pool.

STU: Can you bring a margarita?

GLENN: Man, this test is no big deal.

What! No way. No way!

Here's the last thing on the test.

A vertical tread in an 8-foot circle for two hours!

No way.

STU: Vertical tread in an 8-foot circle?

GLENN: So you're in the water and you're treading water in a circle for two hours. Two!

STU: This is not -- what?

This is not the test.

GLENN: It is. Now, I told you, this is the top of the test.

This is the top of the test.

So this is for the ones who could do all the other tests.

This was the top of the test. The bottom of the test is not that much better. Here's the entry, okay? Let's see. Pullups, 2/6/10. I don't know what that means. Pushups, 16, 24, 32. Bar dips, four, eight, and 12. Situps, 30, 45, and 60. Broad jump, 6-foot, 6, 6, 6. And 6, 9.

To jump 6 feet? I don't even know if --

STU: That one is possible, yes. Glenn, I know it sounds incredible. But, yes. That one is possible.

GLENN: Sounds incredible. You know, I think we should have the average person Olympics. I really do. I really do.

STU: Oh, I would watch that.

GLENN: I would watch that every time.

You see them coming. And you're like, hmm. That one -- three feet. I'm giving him 3 feet. 200-yard shuttle. Agility run. Rope climb, 18 feet, hands only. 880 yards in three minutes. A mile in seven minutes. Pegboard, six holes. A 50-yard swim. Forty -- 40, 50-yard swim in 36 seconds. Man carry, 880 yards. No, thank you! No, thank you!

Look at -- look at what we've gone down. That's the bottom of it. And I don't think most Americans could do that.

I couldn't. Well, I could. Because I'm an elite -- I have the body of an elite athlete.

STU: No. You could not. Now, of course -- let's just say, this is supposed to be for a high school kid. Right?

So this is the prime of your athletic life. Could you do some of these things? Probably.
GLENN: Go into high school.
Go into any high school, and ask them to do this. There's no way. And all of the kids would be.

STU: Well, that's kind of what the reaction would be.

GLENN: Don't get me wrong. I would have been there too. And my parents would have said, suck it up. Just do it.

So nothing has really changed.

STU: That's been the reaction to this proposal too, of bringing this back. Right? The media is covering this. Like, it's going to embarrass children.

You know, I mean, I do remember it being like, I can't do that. I'm not going to the top of that rope. That's not happening.

That's sort of life. Right? Sometimes you can do things. Sometimes you can't do other things.

GLENN: That's why you have to learn how to injure yourself.

You know, how many stairs can I throw myself down, to not do serious damage, but enough to get me out of PE.

STU: Yeah, you have to fake an why are. You have to learn from LeBron James. Act like you got hit in the eye. And fall down like you were just stabbed over and over again, like you were in an athletic competition.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

THIS is why self-reliance may be your ONLY protection from SLAVERY

Are you truly free, or is your life quietly controlled by systems most Americans never question? In this eye-opening conversation, Glenn Beck speaks with investigative journalist Whitney Webb about how the Elites, banks, and global systems have created modern forms of enslavement, all while the public remains largely unaware. They discuss the urgent need for local self-reliance, alternative financial systems, and taking personal responsibility to protect yourself and your family. This is a wake-up call for anyone who believes freedom is guaranteed, and it’s time to see the truth and act before it’s too late.

Claire's warning: The dark side of gender care EXPOSED

Claire Abernathy was just 14-years-old when doctors told her parents she’d take her own life without hormones and surgery. They promised “gender care” would save her life. Instead, it left Claire with irreversible scars, broken trust, and a lifetime of regret. Her mom was told she was required to comply. No one ever addressed the bullying, or trauma Claire endured before being rushed into medical transition. Now, years later, both Claire and her mother are speaking out and exposing how families are misled, how doctors hide risks, and how children are left to pay the price. With federal investigations now underway, their story is a warning every parent needs to hear.
