‘Nukes are up for sale now’: Inside Glenn Beck’s PRIVATE conversation with Donald Trump



Glenn Beck is a lucky man, and he just got even luckier.

Not only did he recently travel to Mar-a-Lago to attend a PragerU event, but he was given the chance to talk with President-elect Donald Trump while he was there.

“I ask him what the hell is going on with South Korea, North Korea, China, Syria, Ukraine, Russia,” Glenn says. “He is laser-focused on this. And again, he reiterated to me the nuclear proliferation that is coming is going to be our biggest problem.”

While Trump had Iran under control during his first presidency, Biden quickly ended that.

“He said, ‘We had Iran absolutely crippled.' He said, ‘I hope we can get them there quickly.’ He said, ‘But nukes are up for sale now,’” Glenn continues. “North Korea has them.' And he said, ‘I don’t have any evidence that they’ve sold them, but they are up for sale.’”


“I asked him about the next 40-some days. I said, ‘I’m very concerned that Biden or whoever is the president of the United States right now, the military-industrial complex, Barack Obama, I don’t know who it is, wants war,’” he explains.

Trump and Glenn also went into depth discussing North Korean fighters.

“He’s like, ‘Glenn, it’s a country of 5 million soldiers.’ He’s like, ‘It’s a religion over there. Their state is their religion. Their supreme leader, Kim Jong Un, is like their god.’”

“And he said, ‘There’s no respect for life, none.’ He said, ‘It’s unlike anything the modern world has seen in a long time,’” Glenn continues, adding, “They don’t even have tourniquets. He said, ‘If the guys are shot in the legs, they bleed to death and people are just walking over them.’ He said, ‘If you’re wounded, you die. There’s no medics coming for you.’”

“He said, ‘It is bloodshed like the world cannot imagine,’” Glenn adds.

Mom ARRESTED for letting son WALK TO STORE speaks out



Georgia mother of four Brittany Patterson was blindsided when police showed up at her home to arrest her after her 10-year-old son was found walking alone. It began when she received a call from a sheriff’s deputy who had found her son, Soren, less than a mile from her home while she was at the doctor with her older son.

“She seemed very concerned that something terrible was going to happen to him,” Patterson tells Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program.” “I was not concerned.”

The police officer dropped him off back at home with Patterson’s father, who lives with the family. However, that’s when things took a turn.

“They asked me to step outside, and put my hands behind my back. So at that point, I asked why. And the female officer said, ‘Because you’re under arrest.’ And so, again, I asked, ‘What am I under arrest for?’” Patterson explains, adding, “And for the second time, I didn’t get a straight answer.”


The officer then explained it was “reckless endangerment,” which Patterson’s attorney told her “is not even a thing that exists in Georgia.”

“That sounds like the Soviet Union,” Glenn comments, disturbed.

ParentsUSA executive director and general counsel David DeLugas watched the body cam footage of the incident and overheard Brittney tell the police, “Last time I checked, it wasn’t illegal for a kid to walk to the store.”

“And remarkably, the deputy immediately says, ‘It is when they’re 10,’” DeLugas explains. “And I assure everybody, it’s not illegal for a 10-year-old to be out and about walking. Not in the state of Georgia, it’s not.”

“The statute Britt was charged with violating is actually called reckless conduct. And, hey, in 1997, the Georgia Supreme Court held that statute unconstitutional because it’s too vague and gives law enforcement too much power,” DeLugas continues. “You would think in what — 27 years? — law enforcement in Fannin County would figure out that that statute doesn’t apply.”

4 MAJOR cover-ups Kash Patel would EXPOSE as FBI director



Intelligence community veteran Kash Patel, whom Donald Trump has tapped to replace Christopher Wray as the next FBI director, is going to flip the agency on its head with his plans to declassify documents that have long been kept secret.

Glenn Beck, who interviewed Patel last year, lists four cover-ups he believes Patel would expose as the next director of the FBI.

1. The Epstein list

“Who has Jeffery Epstein’s black book?” Glenn asked in the interview.

“The FBI,” Patel stated bluntly before clarifying that it’s specifically “under direct control of the director of the FBI.”

“All these local law enforcement communities get funding from the DOJ and FBI for local programs, and if you don't cooperate, you're not getting your million dollars. ...That's how they play the game. That's why you don't have the black book,” he added.

“On day one [of Trump’s second term], roll out the black book,” he said.

2. The January 6 pipe bombs

In regard to the still-missing J6 pipe bomber, who was captured on CCTV cameras, Patel says, "Release all of the footage."

“On day one, play the rest of the video of the pipe bomber,” he told Glenn, reiterating that we “need a central node to be continuously declassifying.”

“I'm telling you as the former number two in the [intelligence community], they over-classify 50% of the stuff there to protect the Deep State.”

3. The 'deleted' J6 text messages

Patel told Glenn that he is also in favor of releasing the mysteriously deleted text messages between Secret Service agents surrounding the January 6, 2021, Capitol riots.

“On day one, roll out all of the text messaging communications we were told were deleted,” he said.

4. Russiagate

“We still haven’t seen half of the Russiagate report that we wrote. It’s still under lock and key,” Patel told Glenn.

“We put 10,000 man hours against John Brennan’s team that did it, and we found out why they came up with their bogus conclusion, but we couldn't sell it to the world because we couldn't talk about it, and the government gangsters came in and buried it,” he explained.

Needless to say, Glenn is excited for Kash Patel to head the FBI.

To hear Glenn’s commentary on Kash Patel and what he hopes he will achieve in the role of FBI director, watch the clip above.

Why Joe Biden’s pardon of Hunter doesn’t have to be the end



Despite repeatedly pledging not to, President Biden has chosen to pardon his son Hunter for his federal crimes.

“This is the least surprising story of the decade,” says Glenn Beck. “We all knew it was coming.”

Even though it’s upsetting, Glenn admits that Joe Biden is well within his constitutional rights to do this.

“It's one of the few powers that we grant the executive office for which there is no check and balance process outlined in the Constitution,” he says.

But despite the constitutionality of Biden’s blanket pardon, people are still very upset, as they should be.

“If this was just cocaine and prostitutes, I don't think we'd care that much,” says Glenn. “However, we're talking about money laundering charges to the Biden family.”

“What about the violation of the State Secrets Act? ... How about Chinese prostitute spies?” he asks.

In a statement explaining his decision, Biden said, “I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice — and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a president would come to this decision.”

Glenn actually agrees — mostly.

Before the scandal went public, the DOJ, IRS, and FBI were trying to give Hunter “a sweetheart deal” that would effectively sweep his crimes under the rug. So in that sense, yes — Hunter’s case was indeed a miscarriage of justice from the start, making the pardon even more egregious.

However, just because Biden pardoned Hunter doesn’t mean it’s over.There is still a way that at least some justice can be served.

“If Trump is who we think he is ... he can completely blow the lid off of this,” says Glenn.

“Even if he can't prosecute Hunter or Joe, that's fine. But he can declassify every single document in the Biden investigation from cocaine to China to the Middle East and destroy not just the Biden legacy ... but he can destroy the press; he can destroy everyone that was involved in this — the entire apparatus around it,” he proposes.

“Biden only granted Hunter immunity — only Hunter, and by extension, himself, but not the gross military and intelligence industrial complex and the team around them. All those people can be exposed; all of those people can go to jail, and with the appointment of Kash Patel, I predict it's going to happen,” Glenn hypothesizes.

Is Europe close to being conquered? These statistics paint a harrowing picture



When it comes to progressivism, Europe is just a few steps ahead of the United States. While there are many insidious policies contributing to its decline, such as the criminalization of hate speech, its immigration policies are the most outwardly destructive. Several European countries have opened their borders and allowed in millions of immigrants, many of whom hate Western values and the Westerners who live by them.

France specifically is going downhill at such a rate that in many ways, it’s beginning to look like a conquered nation.

Glenn Beck lists some terrifying statistics.

  • “Over 260 French citizens have been killed in terrorist attacks since 2012.”
  • “There were almost 1,000 anti-Christian hate crimes in France in [2023] alone.”
  • “Earlier this year, a cemetery in Southwest France was vandalized with graffiti written in French and Arabic. The messages included ‘Submit to Allah’ and ‘France is already Allaha’s.”’
  • “In May at a church in Western France, benches were set on fire and a statue of Mary was beheaded.”
  • “Last week in a town in Northern France, an arsonist burned down another church. This one was built in the 1800s.”
  • “In 2021 the president of the Paris-based Observatory of Religious Heritage reported that a church is destroyed in France every two weeks, with two-thirds of them caused by arson,” but “a new mosque is built every 15 days in France.”

Given that there are roughly 6.7 million Muslims in France, which is “about 10% of the French population,” something must be done about these alarming figures.

Luckily, President Macron has a plan. Unfortunately, it’s a terrible one.

“The centerpiece of Macron’s proposal is to certify and train imams in France. The proposed measure also included offering Arabic instruction in public schools, tightening control on private religious education, limiting homeschooling, and cracking down on speech or activities that contradict so-called Republican values such as gender-segregated hours at municipal swimming pools,” Glenn reads from Foreign Policy.

“The Muslims are going to line up for the government teaching … and everything’s going to change,” he says sarcastically.

Unfortunately, it’s not just France that’s spiraling toward disaster. It’s Europe as a whole.

From a Qatar charity that funds mosque-building in Europe and the conversion of churches into restaurants, gyms, and nightclubs to the catch-and-release policies that are putting illegal immigrant criminals back on the streets, Europe is looking more like a conquered continent with each day that passes.

Glenn Beck’s 2023 interview with Kash Patel is a MUST SEE before Patel assumes new role as FBI director



When Trump was first elected in 2016, he pledged to “drain the swamp” — that is, the Deep State that permeates the federal government and actively works to ensure certain agendas are pushed and others are squashed, its opponents are persecuted, and the nation heads in the direction it sees fit.

Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. The Deep State is alive, but it isn’t necessarily well as an older and wiser Trump gears up for a second term.

His recent pick for FBI director — Kash Patel — is a surefire sign that he intends to root out the corruption this time around.

Almost a year ago, Glenn Beck sat down for an extended interview with Patel, and now that he is headed to the most powerful seat in one of the most brazenly corrupted branches of the DOJ, their conversation is well worth a revisit.


“I wanted to speak to somebody who has seen [the Deep State] firsthand, knows how it works,” said Glenn on December 13, 2023.

As the “principal deputy to the acting director of the national intelligence agency … under President Trump,” Patel “oversaw all of the operations of all 17 intelligence community agencies.” On top of that, “he also worked with the National Security Council, the secretary of defense, and the Department of Justice.”

All that to say Kash Patel was exactly the person Glenn was looking for to expose “what the Deep State is, how it works, and what its real goals are.”

Glenn’s first question for Patel was simple: “How bad is it?”

“It’s way worse than I thought it could ever be,” Patel, who documented his experience in a book, admitted. “It’s not just one guy; it’s not five … it’s like a thousand.”

The Deep State “just webs out into government, and it secretes in distinct places and kind of just hides there for a while. And then when they want it to activate, the media and others come in with their leadership and say this is what we need,” Patel explained. “These people who run these institutions — DOJ, FBI, DOD, what have you — they are part of this entrenched class in Washington that all respond to one thing: their self-advancement.”

“The only way they do that is if they glorify and protect the institution that's been corrupted,” he added.

To hear Patel’s firsthand experiences battling the Deep State (specific names included) and get a picture of what and whom he will be up against at the new director of the FBI, watch the episode above.

EXPOSED: The globalists who control the legacy media



In 2024, 90% of the media is owned by just six giant global corporations — while just four decades ago, 50 companies controlled 90% of the media.

“This is the media-industrial complex. The propaganda-industrial complex,” Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” comments.

Currently, National Amusements and the Redstone family control CBS, CMT, MTV, Nickelodeon, and so much more. Disney and “the far-left whack job” Bob Iger control ABC, ESPN, the History Channel, Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm, video games, and again, so much more.

TimeWarner and CEO Jeff Bewkes control CNN, Warner Brothers, HBO, Turner, video games, internet, print media like Time, and dozens more. Comcast and CEO Brian L. Roberts control NBC, MSNBC, CSNBC, Telemundo, and the internet.


NewsCorp and the Murdoch family control Fox and National Geographic while Sony controls an incredible amount of music, television, movies, and more.

“These are just a few examples of what these conglomerates own,” Glenn says. “Remember, almost everything you use and consume and eat are owned by, what did I say, 12 companies? And six own what you’re talking about every day.”

“Who’s controlling the information? The big six, taken all together, are valued at nearly $500 billion dollars. You want to know why they fought the little guys so much, and lost by the way, this Tuesday,” Glenn continues, noting that all that money they’ve invested “isn’t working.”

However, he says, “the result of their work is devastating.”

“The way we cut out this cancer is by more competition, more options, ending the partnership between the government and their surrogates, their corporate board members that are all sitting at the tables of the big six,” Glenn says.

“Increase the amount of independent media. No government bailouts. No government startups. Let the system work. Halt the cronyism between the government and the media companies,” he continues, adding, “And the great thing is, that’s Donald Trump’s plan.”

Glenn Beck’s research team uses THIS system to discern truth from lies in the media



Between the ideologically captured mainstream media and Big Tech giants that control the internet, it’s hard to know what is true these days.

But Glenn Beck has a tried-and-true system his very own research team uses that will also help you discern truth from lies.

Glenn says the most frequent question he gets from his audience is: “How do I know who to trust?”

“I want to give you some simple ways to test information that I and my research team use every day,” he says.

1. The "liar, liar" test

“When someone in a media source lies to you, you have to remember that,” says Glenn. Going forward, you must “evaluate them with a higher level of scrutiny.”

“They have to earn your trust back with interest. An apology or a loud correction helps this,” he says, adding that “this applies to all sources, even if they’re on your side of the political aisle.”

“The overarching goal must always be to find the truth — not the thing that we would like to be true but the truth. A good source will be willing to publish the truth even when it conflicts with its own ideological views.”

2. The "What is a woman?" test

“Let's say you’re reading something an expert is talking about on any topic. Try to find out what that expert's position is on an issue where there is zero doubt about what the correct answer is,” says Glenn.

While there are probably multiple issues that would work, one foolproof litmus test is the “what is a woman?” question.

“If they cannot accurately tell the difference between a man and a woman, then the source is definitely unreliable,” says Glenn.

3. The "egg-throwing gorilla" test

Glenn took the name for this test from Larry Elder’s race for California governor in 2021.

During his campaign, Elder was repeatedly called a racist by the left. One Los Angeles Times reporter called him “the black face of white supremacy.”

“A woman even went to one of Elder’s rallies wearing a gorilla mask and then threw eggs at him,” Glenn recalls.

“When a bias is this obviously backward, the source is untrustworthy,” he says.

4. The "beware of bias" test

When publishers “publish things that go against their own interests, then [the source] is more likely to be true, and this counts in credibility for other stories,” says Glenn, pointing to Michael Shellenberger as a great example of this.

“He's a longtime environmentalist, and yet his reporting in recent years on green energy corruption and failures” — ideas that might undermine his personal ambitions — “means it's more likely that he's telling the truth,” he adds.

5. The "bloodthirsty tyrant" test

Simply put, “if someone supports or calls for violence in any way, you should not trust the information coming from that source without a lot of corroborating evidence,” says Glenn. “If you think your cause is so righteous it justifies rioting, violence, burning cities down, then I don't trust you.”

6. The “original source” test

“This one is tough because it takes patience; it takes digging,” Glenn prefaces.

“Whenever possible, don't take [news] firsthand. … Once we know the original source, we can ask — is that guy trustworthy? If you hear something reported as absolute fact and is repeated verbatim by multiple outlets, try to find out where that fact originated,” he explains, adding that “if a media outlet doesn't mention the source of that fact that they share, that's a red flag.”

Deep state in ‘survival mode’: Can Trump stop Russia from going to WAR with Biden?



Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has fired American-made long-range missiles to attack Russia — which Vladimir Putin had previously said would be a red line.

“Whoever is president of the United States, let’s just use air quotes and say ‘Joe Biden,’ told Ukraine that they could use those long-range missiles,” Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” tells Rep. Cory Mills, disturbed.

Putin has declared that an action like this will be “treated as a joint assault on Russia.”

“For four years, Ukraine had been asking for long-range capabilities, have been asking to be able to hit within the outlying areas inside of Russia in an effort to try and prevent continual assaults, and it was denied, denied, denied,” Mills comments, noting that as Trump’s presidency nears, they’re “continuing to try and spiral things further out of control.”


However, while he’s admittedly concerned, he also believes that Trump is the right man to get America through this unscathed.

“The benefit we have, however, is that we have an exceptionally strong president coming in, and every one of the world leaders knows that President Trump does not suffer fools and that he does not have the weakness, which invites aggression,” he says.

“I think that both Putin and Zelenskyy understand that President Trump coming in is not going to necessarily say, ‘It’s OK for you guys to continue this back and forth, it’s OK to continue the atrocious events that are occurring.’ He’s going to come with an actual solution and say, ‘What kind of sanctioning, what kind of imposement,’ because remember, it was President Trump who actually removed America from the INF Treaty, which had been violated by Russia time and time again,” he continues.

“So people know this. They’re taking notice. But it’s disturbing to me that President Biden is doing everything he can to leave president Trump with the biggest mess possible, to stop him from actually getting onto the America First agenda,” he says, adding, “It also strikes me as the deep state going into survival mode.”

Getting on a plane for Thanksgiving? You might want to read this first



Last week, a new Blaze Originals dropped. Titled “Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster,” the documentary exposes the internal rot of America’s aviation industry. The reality is, our skies aren’t as safe as they used to be. In the last year alone, the number of “close calls” — meaning that planes narrowly avoided crashing into each other — surged to three per week.

What happened?

While there are numerous factors contributing to this decline, there’s one issue that stands out among the rest — the Federal Aviation Administration has infused DEI into its hiring system.

Stu Burguiere tells Glenn Beck just how insane the policies are.

Because of DEI policies that unfairly weed out qualified would-be air traffic controllers, our current air traffic controllers are “overworked” because nearly every control tower in the country is severely “understaffed,” Stu explains.

Further, these policies are specifically “blocking white males from getting these jobs,” he tells Glenn.

Flying an aircraft “is a matter of life and death,” says Glenn. “This DEI stuff ... it's death! It should be [spelled] DIE.”

“In the end, [death] is what happens when you have unqualified people building bridges, flying planes, being your eyes in the sky,” he adds.

“I talked to a guy in the documentary who took the merit-based test to become an air traffic controller and got a 100 on it — a perfect score. Then they added another test called the biographical exam,” says Stu.

“It had really weird questions,” like, “Did you perform well in science in high school?” and, “If you say, ‘Yes, I did well in science in high school,’ you get penalized,” he explains. “To [the FAA], you're less likely to be a minority if you did well in science in high school, so you get punished for doing well in a subject that obviously would relate to what you’re doing.”

The man who made a perfect score on the merit-based test ended up “not getting the job,” likely because the biographical exam pinned him as a white male.

“Now [he’s] suing the government over it,” says Stu.

Glenn is horrified but not surprised by all of this. In fact, he was just on a flight that nearly crashed into another plane. To hear the harrowing story of how his plane suddenly “rocketed up” unexpectedly, watch the clip above.
