The media’s ‘confusion’ over RFK Jr.’s diet guidelines is either fake — or just stupid



The media is either playing dumb when it comes to the Department of Health and Human Services’ recent changes to the federal dietary guidelines — or the media is actually just dumb.

“Kennedy’s nutrition guidelines raise questions,” one article from Axios is headlined.

“They are so disingenuous with, I mean, literally everything. ... I do believe that they’re dumb, but it makes them look so dumb that they can’t understand just basics, just the basics,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”

As for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Gonzales explains, “He’s just taking the classic food pyramid and turning it upside down.”


“It’s what we needed to do this whole time. It prioritizes eating real, whole foods, way more protein and healthy fats and vegetables and fruits. It’s OK to eat healthy fats and limit carbs and grains, especially the ultra-processed ones. That should not be confusing to, I don’t know, anyone who’s been paying attention. Like, eat real food,” she says.

“That’s three words. Three words. None of them are complex. Eat real food. Each have one syllable actually. So it’s three words, three syllables. ... What they should have been confused with is the old pyramid that we were given because like, oh, we should actually eat what, 11 servings of bread, cereal, rice, and pasta a day. I mean, that’s always been absolutely absurd,” she adds.

While the left often calls RFK Jr. a “crazy conspiracy crackpot nut job” who is neither a scientist nor a doctor, Gonzales points out that “he’s a 71-year-old with a six pack.”

“Something tells me I should trust that guy with my diet. I’m going to trust him on what to eat, especially considering that this country has been getting fatter and sicker for years under the previous guidance,” she adds.

Glenn Beck exposes the REAL reason Tim Walz is fanning civil war flames — and it’s not Trump resistance



After the death of Renee Nicole Good — the woman shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on January 7 after she struck him with her car during a large-scale immigration operation — Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), who publicly condemned the shooting as unnecessary, intentionally fanned the flames by issuing a warning order to prepare the National Guard for deployment.

The Constitution, specifically the Supremacy Clause, forbids state military forces from impeding, obstructing, or interfering with federal military or law enforcement officials carrying out federal duties, as federal law and authority are supreme over conflicting state actions.

Walz, says Glenn Beck, undoubtedly knows such a violation of this clause would mean serious consequences, so his words were clearly meant to accomplish a different purpose.

That purpose, he says, is to send a "signal” to “the Democrats' own revolutionary guard.”

“Those are the people who have been so duped or … hate America because America is the worst place in the world … they're on a mission to stop the federal government any way they possibly can,” Glenn explains.

In other words, Walz was stoking a “civil war.”

The following day, he went a step farther. At a press conference on January 8, Walz said, “When things looked really bleak, it was Minnesota First that held that line for the nation on that July 3, 1863, and I think now we may be in that moment, that the nation's looking to us to hold the line on democracy, to hold the line on decency, to hold the line on accountability, and more than that, to rise up as neighbors and simply say, ‘We can look out for one another.”’

“What he's doing here right now is just, it's the most selfish thing I've ever seen. He is only protecting himself,” says Glenn, predicting that it’s a matter of time before Walz is behind bars for his almost certain complicity in the massive, mostly Somali-perpetrated fraud schemes uncovered in Minnesota.

“The guy is guilty,” he says frankly.

It’s this guilt — not anything related to Renee Good — that is fueling Walz’s recent statements, Glenn says.

“He, first of all, stole your money, gave it to people who were shipping it out of the country. He and his administration enabled and assisted in all of this, then turned a blind eye when everybody realized … something wrong is happening. They did nothing. Why? Because if they did something in the Somali community, it guaranteed that they would not be re-elected,” Glenn says.

“It was all about getting elected.”

Then when the fraud schemes started to catch up with him, prompting the massive influx of ICE officers into Minnesota, followed by protests and obstructions and eventually Good’s death, Walz saw an opportunity to take the spotlight off his own crimes by inciting radicals to resist federal agents, framing it as defending democracy and neighbors.

“He is calling for a civil war and making himself the white knight on the white horse, saying, ‘I'm just here to protect you’ ... even though he's the guy who enabled people to come into your house and steal all of your stuff,” scoffs Glenn. “He’s saying, ‘I'm here to protect you from the bad guys who are trying to put me in jail."’

“He's willing to have people killed. He is willing to see a civil war. For what reason? To keep him out of jail. I don't think I've ever seen anything this selfish in my life.”

Why Your Aunt Hates ICE: A Spiritual Analysis of Liberal Women | Ep 1287

Exclusive: Bessent tells Rufo — 'When the bear trap snaps,' Minnesota fraudsters and complicit officials will face justice



While fraud rings in Minnesota's Somali community have been under federal investigation for years, it was investigative journalist and BlazeTV host Christopher Rufo’s reporting that brought the billion-dollar scandals to national attention. Back in November 2025, Rufo published a report titled “The Largest Funder of Al-Shabaab Is the Minnesota Taxpayer,” in which he and co-author Ryan Thorpe alleged that billions of taxpayer funds were being stolen through schemes in Minneapolis’ Somali community and that millions of those funds were being funneled to the Al-Shabaab terror group in Somalia.

Rufo's reporting sparked massive federal action, including revoking Temporary Protected Status for Somalis, surging Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, freezing child-care funds, and ramping up prosecutions. Most notably, it led Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to visit Minnesota in January 2026 and launch major FinCEN probes into hawala businesses, IRS audits, and enhanced transfer reporting.

In this exclusive BlazeTV interview with Rufo, Bessent shares what his team’s investigations have revealed about Minnesota’s Somali fraud operations and what steps the Treasury is taking to ensure it stops.

Bessent says his team’s investigations confirmed that the fraud schemes were “bigger than anyone thought” and that money — either excess government-issued funds or stolen funds — are indeed being sent illegally out of the country.

One positive result of the investigations into Minnesota’s fraud rings, however, is that they will provide a “model” for future investigations in the other 49 states.

“Just because of the population sizes — California, Illinois, New York — that what's going on [in Minnesota] is a microcosm of what's going on there. And it's like someone on the panel said today: Benefits have been turned into businesses. It is a cottage industry of teaching people how to form multiple LLCs, how to game the system, how to move money around,” says Bessent, pledging to “follow the money” and explore “recoveries” for cheated Americans.

Rufo calls these predominantly Somali-orchestrated fraud rings Minnesota’s “open secret.” Fraudsters were successful largely because they knew that the cultural standard of “Minnesota nice” and politicians’ “fear of being called racist” would result in the turning of blind eyes everywhere.

“What do you think the right attitude should be as you look at these frauds moving forward?” he asks.

“Clearly the governor's office does not want to do investigations. So we just want the facts. We want to see where they lead, and we want to put the bad guys in jail,” says Bessent.

Further Minnesota’s soft-on-crime policies that “incentivize” criminality need to be addressed. “You could steal hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars, and under the Minnesota laws, you might not even get jail time. You might get a series of paroles,” Bessent adds.

“We have the ability to bring in IRS enforcement, and they don't monkey around. So the incentive is going to be to stop this.”

Rufo then posed the question that conservatives nationwide are eagerly awaiting an answer to: Will we finally see any big names face justice?

“From [Gov. Tim Walz] on down appears to be at a minimum to have turned a blind eye. There are rumors circulating around this building right now that in fact some have been complicit in these schemes. Is that something your office is looking into?” he asks.

“That's part of following the money. There are evidently some disturbing tapes of AG Ellison in meetings with people who donated to him calling for political favors to stop the investigations. So we'll see,” says Bessent.

“And Chris, I can guarantee you when the bear trap snaps, we're going to get these folks.”

Women shed hijabs, chant for the shah: Is this the end of Iran's 47-year ‘hell’?



Over the weekend, violent anti-government protests exploded across Iran, even reaching into Tehran and other large cities. While unrest was sparked weeks ago due to the economic crisis, protests have since swelled into calls to overthrow the regime. Chants like "Death to Khamenei” reverberated through the streets; clashes with security forces left many injured or dead; fire consumed regime buildings; Iranian flags were destroyed and replaced with the pre-1979 Lion and Sun flag; women marched through the streets without their hijabs while smoking cigarettes.

“It felt to me like [Iran] might fall,” says Glenn Beck.

“I completely agree with you,” says Glenn’s head writer and researcher, Jason Buttrill. “I was like, we might see the regime go down tonight.”

The large-scale anti-government movements that took place in 2009 and 2022/2023 are “nothing, compared” to the ones currently ripping through the nation, he says, recalling a video of an elderly woman with blood gushing from her mouth defiantly marching through the streets with her fist held high.

“I cannot believe Time magazine or whoever else wasn't there to take that photo, because it's the photo of the year,” he says of the fiery matriarch.

Glenn prays that this widespread movement that has already reached over 170 cities might reignite the golden years of Iran when the country looked more like Paris in its prime. Before Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was driven into exile and his monarchy replaced by an Islamic Republic, Iran “was very enlightened,” says Glenn. “It was very smart, very well educated, very free. … It was a very Western country.”

This “hell” that the Iranian people have been living in since 1979 could come to an end if the current protests continue to gain momentum. The former crown prince, Reza Pahlavi, has emerged as a prominent symbolic figure in the uprising, urging Iranians to join the movement, seize city centers, hoist the pre-1979 Lion and Sun flag, and push for strikes.

Protesters in many cities have even been chanting slogans like "Long live the Shah.”

“He was their battle cry,” says Jason.

Glenn is encouraged but certainly not ready to celebrate yet. While some signs indicate that the protest movement is going well, others spell doom — the biggest one being the deliberately implemented nationwide internet blackout orchestrated by the Iranian government to hide the scale of violence and human rights violations, disrupt protest organization and momentum, and prevent the rest of the world from witnessing the events.

“That’s really frightening,” says Glenn.

For now, it’s uncertain whether we are about to see “a free Iran” or genocide-level violence that pressures the U.S. to intervene.

“Spend a lot of time praying for peace and praying for the people of Iran,” Glenn says. “The Persian people are amazing, and if they could get that culture back and they could be free, the source of good that Iran would be in the world would be remarkable.”

WATCH: Bystander video captures Renee Good protest kickoff — and it’s not grassroots at all



Protesters for Renee Nicole Good — the woman who was lethally shot by an ICE officer on Wednesday in Minneapolis after striking him with her vehicle — are ramping up significantly across the country.

But recent video clips have emerged suggesting that not all of these protests are as grassroots as they seem. On this episode of “Pat Gray Unleashed,” Pat plays a video that shatters the narrative that thousands of Americans across the country are rallying in support of Democrats’ anti-ICE crusade.

The video features an organizer directing a group of confused-looking protesters. A hot mic captures him giving them instructions, positioning them with professionally printed signs (most referencing Renee Good or anti-ICE themes), and coaching them on certain responses and formations.

Pat compares the blatantly staged protest to “a Spielberg production.”

“They’re being coached on where to go, what to do, what to say, and there's actually somebody producing this madness,” he scoffs.

“Unleashed” producer Kris Cruz points out that some of the protesters even have their signs upside down and have to be directed to turn them right side up.

At one point in the clip, a TV news reporter joins in and helps direct the crowd. Pat wonders if she plans to “mention in her report, ‘By the way, this was all orchestrated by George Soros.’”

After being moved around several times, one of the “protesters” in the video chimes in with, “This reminds me of theater.”

“That’s because it is theater,” Pat says.

“It’s a huge production that they’re paying a lot of money for. ... So, anytime you see these massive demonstrations and protests, you know what’s going on behind the scenes.”

To see the footage, watch the video above.
