right, let me tell you about Burn a

0:02

Launcher. There are times in life when danger

0:04

is coming your way, and the appropriate response

0:06

isn't lethal force. You know, it happens more

0:08

often than you think. Burn a Launcher gives

0:10

you a way to take action without taking

0:12

a life. It looks and feels

0:15

like a firearm, but it fires

0:17

kinetic rounds and chemical irritants

0:19

like tear gas and pepper spray.

0:21

It's designed to stop a

0:23

threat long before it actually gets

0:25

to you up to 60

0:27

feet away, and it will... It

0:30

will take that person down long

0:32

enough for you to get away

0:34

safely and the police to arrive.

0:36

It doesn't require a permit. It's

0:38

legal in all 50 states if

0:40

you're over 18. Police departments carry

0:42

it. Security professionals carry it. So

0:44

do thousands of people who just

0:46

want to walk through the world

0:48

without feeling helpless and unarmed. You

0:51

can be in control how the

0:53

emergency situation turns out. You can

0:55

do it without lethal force as

0:57

well. Head to Burna, B -Y -R -N

2:04

this is the

2:06

video. It's

2:12

a threat to democracy. We

2:14

begin in 60 seconds. First, every

2:16

choice you make says something about

2:18

who you are, what you believe

2:20

in and what matters to you

2:22

most. And it's easy to feel

2:24

small in a world dominated by

2:26

big tech and big corporations. But

2:28

what if one simple choice, something

2:30

as ordinary as just changing your

2:32

cell phone provider could help you

2:34

take a stand for your values?

2:36

It starts by doing just... the

2:38

next right thing and that next

right thing may be for you

3:33

-PATRIOT. Well,

3:35

we were lucky this time. It

3:38

is strange. This happened on April 13th.

3:40

I'll tell you why in a

3:42

minute. April 13th, 2025. Most

3:44

of us were asleep

3:46

when a man named Cody

3:48

Balmer scaled the fence at

3:50

the governor's mansion in Pennsylvania.

3:53

He smashed a window. He

3:55

threw a Molotov cocktail

3:57

inside and. Had

3:59

he the governor there, Josh Shapiro,

4:02

he planned to bludgeon him with

4:04

a hammer. His reason?

4:07

Hatred. Political hatred.

4:10

Now, the governor and his

4:12

family escaped physically unharmed. The

4:14

fire left something smoldering in what

4:17

should be smoldering in all

4:19

of us. It's a question

4:21

of what happens to a society

4:23

when people no longer believe in

4:25

the rule of law, in debate,

4:27

into votes. but instead believe

4:29

in violence when they

4:31

justify that violence as morally

4:33

righteous. And that's what's

4:35

happening. There is a broader

4:37

assassination culture that appears

4:39

to be emerging within segments

4:41

of our society. And

4:45

I think the trend line

4:47

is deeply troubling. Listen

4:49

to this. There was a

4:52

survey. They questioned 1 ,264

4:54

residents of the U .S.,

4:56

31%. And 38 %

4:58

stated it would be

5:00

at least somewhat justified

5:02

to murder Elon

5:04

Musk and President Trump.

5:07

31 % said yes to

5:09

Elon Musk. 38%,

5:11

almost 40 % of our population

5:13

said it's okay to murder the

5:16

president. These

5:18

percentages, however, go way up

5:20

when you isolate left

5:22

of center respondents. So anybody

5:24

who described themselves as

5:27

either far left, liberal or

5:29

slightly liberal, the numbers

5:31

went 48 % to kill

5:33

Elon Musk and 55 %

5:35

to kill the president. That's

5:40

half of people who

5:42

say they're at least

5:44

slightly liberal. Wow.

5:49

40 % said it's at

5:51

least somewhat justifiable to burn down

5:53

or destroy a Tesla dealership in

5:55

protest. Now, this is not new. This

5:59

deadly logic we've seen

6:01

before, and strangely, it

6:04

was 160 years ago, almost to

6:06

the day, April

6:09

1865, President

6:11

Abraham Lincoln attends a play

6:14

at Ford's Theater. He comes

6:16

in, he's late. Some accounts

6:18

suggest that Lincoln had left

6:20

a box open for a

6:22

last -minute guest, possibly General

6:24

Grant, who declined. Or maybe

6:26

somebody else. Perhaps

6:29

even John Wilkes Booth himself.

6:31

He was a popular actor.

6:33

He was known in Washington

6:35

society. One

6:37

of the people at the

6:39

theater saw Booth send a

6:41

letter up to Lincoln's box

6:43

or send a note up to

6:45

Lincoln's box. He

6:49

might have been asking if he could sit

6:51

with the president. We don't know. And

6:53

the president might have said, yeah.

6:55

Because John Wilkes Booth, he wasn't

6:57

just a popular actor. So

7:00

his family was very popular

7:02

as well. And they were known

7:04

to be Southerners. And maybe

7:06

because Booth was having a play

7:08

the next week that was

7:10

at Ford's Theater, maybe the president

7:12

was trying to bring people

7:14

together. I don't know. But there

7:16

he is

7:18

in

7:20

the theater. Just

7:26

a few days before, he

7:28

was giving his second

7:30

inaugural address, and he said

7:32

something that enraged Booth. He

7:34

suggested that formerly enslaved people, at

7:37

least the educated and those who

7:39

had served, should be given the

7:41

right to vote. And Booth, at

7:43

that point, turned to his companion

7:45

and said, that means N -word citizenship.

7:48

That'll be the last speech he

7:50

makes. And so he picked

7:52

up a pistol and you know the rest. But

7:56

Booth wasn't acting alone that

7:58

night, not just in

8:00

the literal conspiracy, though there

8:02

was one, but in spirit.

8:04

He believed that he was

8:06

saving democracy from a tyrant.

8:09

Booth wasn't some raging lunatic

8:11

in his own mind. He

8:14

thought he was a patriot. He

8:16

thought he was the liberator.

8:18

He saw Lincoln as the

8:20

usurper and Booth as the

8:22

deliverer. We

8:27

don't recoil at this. Now

8:31

we used to. We used to call that treason.

8:34

But how different is that

8:36

from the logic than the

8:38

kind we're hearing today? We're hearing the same kind

8:40

of logic and now we don't recoil. Now

8:42

we don't call it treason. There

8:45

is a new report out

8:47

from the Network Contagion Research

8:49

Institute. They found that half,

8:51

55 % of self -identified leftists

8:53

say Donald Trump. is

8:56

justifiable to kill him. This

9:04

is not the fringe

9:07

anymore. It is mainstreamed

9:09

through algorithms, college campuses,

9:11

op -eds, by any

9:13

means necessary. That's

9:15

not just a slogan that was

9:18

said in the 60s. That is

9:20

now a permission slip to do

9:22

whatever it is you think is

9:24

right. In 1865,

9:26

the stage was

9:28

literal, and Booth

9:31

used that stage to deliver

9:33

his final act. He entered

9:35

Lincoln's box, point -blank range, one

9:37

bullet to the back of

9:39

the head. Then he jumped

9:41

to the stage below, and

9:43

he shouted, Sic semper tyrannis,

9:46

thus always to tyrants, as

9:50

if he was slaying Caesar. He

9:54

limped off stage. He had a broken leg.

9:56

Twelve days later, soldiers found him cornered in

9:58

a barn in Virginia, and they him.

10:00

And as he lay dying,

10:02

Booth stared at his hands,

10:04

the hands that had taken the president's

10:06

life just a few days before,

10:08

and he whispered a single word.

10:11

Looking at his hands, he said,

10:14

Useless. Useless.

10:23

I think that was the judgment of his

10:25

own actions. His

10:27

final clarity. Instead

10:29

of saving democracy,

10:31

he assaulted its very soul. And

10:34

it did nothing. Lincoln died, not just

10:36

as a martyr for the Union, but

10:39

a victim of the same

10:41

delusion infecting our political climate

10:43

today. The idea that democracy

10:45

can be preserved through violence.

10:48

that saving the republic by

10:50

killing those that we disagree

10:52

with somehow works. So

10:54

here we are again. This

10:56

time it's firebombs and

10:58

hammers. And by the way,

11:01

just so you

11:03

know, that was somebody

11:05

who wanted to

11:07

free Palestine by killing

11:09

the Jewish governor

11:11

who's a Democrat in

11:13

Pennsylvania. Okay,

11:16

so that makes it. Even all the

11:19

more heartwarming, doesn't it? If

11:22

anybody thinks that you are

11:24

not going to be

11:26

victimized by these people, you

11:28

will never be radical

11:30

enough for these people. And

11:34

the fever is rising. It's no

11:36

longer limited to lone actors.

11:38

It's visible on how we excuse

11:40

riots. We justify doxing. We

11:42

rationalize political intimidation. All of it,

11:44

of course, is dressed up

11:47

in the language of justice. I

11:49

want to talk about justice

11:51

this hour. Justice

11:54

without law is

11:56

not justice. It's

11:58

vengeance. Vengeance

12:02

is blind. So

12:05

now, what do we

12:07

do? Well,

12:10

the first thing we have to do

12:13

is remember the past, and not as

12:15

a moral bedtime story, but as a

12:17

warning. Why is

12:19

it that they want us to

12:21

not know our own history? If

12:24

you don't know your own history,

12:26

you can't defend the things that

12:28

you think are important. You no

12:30

longer know what worked, what didn't.

12:33

You no longer know what shaped

12:35

us. You

12:37

no longer have any warnings to go, wait

12:39

a minute, wait a minute, didn't this

12:41

happen before? I don't know. Booth

12:45

did not end tyranny. He

12:48

deepened the division. His bullet

12:50

didn't preserve liberty. It

12:52

set the reconstruction of the

12:54

country that Lincoln fought

12:56

to heal. It set it

12:58

back. Second

13:01

thing. We have to reject every

13:03

attempt, left or right, to justify

13:05

violence in the name of saving

13:07

democracy. Because democracy

13:09

doesn't need saviors. It

13:11

needs citizens. When

13:15

you think of yourself as a

13:17

savior, you'll justify anything. In my

13:19

book, there's only one savior. There's

13:22

lots of citizens. I'm

13:25

a citizen. You're a

13:27

citizen. Citizens vote. Citizens

13:29

speak. Citizens challenge. Citizens

13:31

disagree. But we're

13:33

not saviors, so we can't take

13:35

life. We don't get to choose

13:38

who lives, who dies. And

13:42

the last thing, again, we

13:44

have to learn from history. Maybe

13:46

we should reflect on the

13:48

words this April, right

13:51

after the assassination. Have you even did you

13:53

know about this assassination attempt? Why isn't

13:55

that everywhere? Somebody who

13:57

was. who was saying

13:59

they were trying to free

14:01

the Palestinians, tried to murder

14:03

our governor of a

14:05

very large state in our

14:08

country who is Jewish. Clearly

14:11

an anti -Semite. Somebody

14:13

from the left

14:16

tried to kill one of our

14:18

governors. And why isn't that

14:20

everywhere? Is it just

14:22

me? Have I just missed this? This

14:25

seems like a footnote story. This is

14:27

a very large story. And

14:31

because it's not a

14:34

lead story everywhere

14:36

for days, it tells you

14:38

something about the media, doesn't

14:40

it? It tells you something

14:42

about the culture of the

14:44

left. They're excusing it by

14:46

burying it. So

14:50

perhaps we should

14:52

just reflect. on

14:54

the words of a dying assassin, useless.

15:02

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think

15:04

he meant, as he's looking at his

15:06

hands, his hands, the

15:16

hands that killed a president,

15:19

and he sees nothing changed.

15:28

Let's not forget the

15:30

lessons of 1865, because we

15:32

almost repeated them over

15:34

the summer, and we almost

15:36

repeated them again just a

15:39

couple of days ago, again

15:41

in Pennsylvania. This

15:44

time, one was a Republican,

15:46

the next one was a

15:48

Democrat, more importantly, a Jew. And

15:52

both times, these seem to be just

15:54

swept under the rug. Why?

16:01

Because there are people

16:03

that are trying to convince

16:05

you that violence is the

16:07

answer. It's

16:10

not. It's

16:13

not. If we

16:15

convince ourselves again that violence

16:17

is ever the answer, then all

16:19

of what we have done

16:21

will be useless, just like Booth's

16:23

final act. And

16:27

just like the country... We

16:30

will lose if we don't

16:33

change course. More

16:35

in a minute. Let me tell you

16:37

about Cozy Earth. The bedding products of

16:39

Cozy Earth are so great. Sarah

16:42

says she doesn't want to speak to me anymore. I

16:44

gave her some sheets for Cozy

16:46

Earth. I

16:48

don't know why I gave them to use, too. I

16:50

mean, you can... mean, well, Sarah can afford them,

16:52

too. They're not that expensive. Why am I doing this?

16:54

Yeah, I don't know. It was pretty dumb of

16:56

you, but I love the sheets. I love them, too.

16:58

They're really great, aren't they? They'll

17:01

keep you comfortable all night.

17:03

They're temperature -regulating. They're moisture -wicking.

17:06

And if you love their sheets, you're going to

17:08

love their pajamas. I'm telling you, I go

17:10

home now in the afternoon, and I put them

17:12

on because they just look like loungewear, and

17:14

I'm not going anyplace. And even if I am,

17:16

I said to my son we were going

17:18

someplace, and I'm like, You mind if

17:20

I just wear my pajamas

17:22

and my slippers? And I

17:24

used to yell at my kids, hey, we don't wear

17:27

pajamas outside. I don't really care anymore. I'm at that age

17:29

where I'm like, I don't care. I don't care. And

17:31

he's like, whatever, Dad. Anyway, you

17:33

want to try their sheets? 100

17:35

Nights. That's long enough to binge

17:37

watch five different streaming shows, start a

17:39

fitness program, and quit it twice, I

17:41

might add, and maybe read exactly a

17:43

quarter of that book you've been meaning

17:46

to finish. The products come with

17:48

a 10 -year warranty. And by then, we're

17:50

going to have flying cars and robot butlers.

17:52

Or maybe we're the butlers of the

17:54

robots. I'm not sure. But Cozy Earth. Makes

17:56

it easy for you to try it

17:58

yourself. Get 100 nights risk -free to fall

18:01

in love. Plus, every bedding product

18:03

is backed by a 10 -year warranty.

Cozy Earth. 10 seconds. Station

18:28

ID. You

18:39

know what really makes me sick

18:41

is there was a time when

18:44

rebellion actually meant something. It meant

18:46

risk, you know. It meant friction

18:48

with authority. Rebellion

18:51

didn't come with an audience clapping

18:53

afterwards when you said something or give

18:55

you extra credit for doing it.

18:57

I love that one. You're in college,

18:59

you get extra credit for rebellion.

19:01

What kind of rebellion is that? Today,

19:04

rebellions come with hashtags

19:06

and press kits. It's

19:09

sanctioned. It's subsidized. It's

19:11

expected now. It's encouraged

19:13

by the elites. Those

19:17

who all rail against

19:19

the system are the ones

19:21

following the newest programming

19:23

from the system. Pre -approved

19:25

outrage, curated dissent. Chomsky,

19:28

he's the author of a

19:30

lot of really bad books,

19:32

but he said that consent

19:34

is now manufactured. The

19:36

media, through repetition and

19:38

subtle cues, can sculpt public

19:40

opinion until people believe

19:43

their choices are their own.

19:45

We've talked about this a lot on this

19:47

program. He's not wrong, but he stopped

19:49

short. Because

19:52

if consent can be manufactured, why

19:54

not rebellion? Look around. The kids

19:56

in the street with the signs,

19:58

they didn't write. Chanting

20:00

slogans, they didn't come

20:02

up with. They were taught

20:04

by their teachers. That's

20:06

not rebellion. That's rehearsal. That's

20:10

what happens when you take young

20:12

minds and minds meant to push back

20:14

and preload them with a script.

20:16

Parents do it. Schools do it.

20:18

Now AI is about to do it.

20:20

Algorithms feeding us. Not what we

20:22

want, but what shapes us, what

20:25

molds us. That's not free

20:27

will, gang. That's

20:29

choreography. That

20:32

should terrify everybody. Because

20:36

as I've said on this

20:38

program over and over again, we're

20:40

about to lose. The definition

20:42

of free will, we won't know.

20:44

Without critical thinking that separates

20:46

man from machine, man from animals,

20:48

we don't just lose freedom.

20:50

We lose meaning to everything. Consent

20:52

becomes just a checkbox. Rebellion

20:55

becomes a brand. And

20:57

that's really what it is.

20:59

People are fighting for

21:01

a brand. Republicans or Democrats.

21:04

That's what it is.

21:06

Our minds. They're

21:10

just meat modems for the

21:12

next approved idea. That's it. Because

21:15

we don't think anymore. We don't

21:17

know how to think. But

21:19

we need to think. And not

21:21

just about what you believe, but

21:24

why you believe it. You know,

21:26

I've said this for years. Question

21:28

with boldness even the very existence

21:30

of God. For if there be

21:32

a God, he'd rather have honest

21:34

questioning over blindfolded fear. Let me

21:36

change that a little bit. me

21:39

make it even more simple. Question

21:41

the ideas that are the most

21:43

comfortable to you. Question

21:45

those ideas first and

21:47

foremost. Because if your

21:49

rebellion is easy, it's

21:51

probably not your idea. And

21:54

if all of your consent

21:56

is manufactured, then

21:59

your silence, your compliance, it

22:01

was never a choice. And

22:03

if you lose the ability to

22:05

choose, you're not citizens. You

22:08

are a product line. These

22:10

useless, useless idiots on

22:12

the streets that are now

22:15

going out to, you

22:17

know, vandalize Teslas. They think

22:19

it's okay to kill

22:21

them. You are not a

22:23

citizen. You're a product

22:26

line. Stop

22:28

it. Think,

22:30

America. Think. This

22:42

is Glenn Beck. By the way,

22:44

I want to talk about the

22:46

justice of Easter in a minute.

22:50

Do you

22:52

feel

22:54

like sometimes

22:56

debt

22:58

is just

23:00

normal? It's

23:02

like something you just live with,

23:04

a constant shadow over your finances that

23:06

you've just learned to deal with.

23:08

It's not fun. But it's just,

23:10

you know, the way the old world turns, you

23:12

know, that's not a

23:15

good place to be in because it means

23:17

you've basically given up on the idea of

23:19

getting out of debt. And you

23:21

can get out of debt, even when

23:23

you're paying on high interest credit

23:25

cards. You know, there are options available

23:27

that most people don't even know.

23:29

They don't know they have. What are

23:31

the options? That's something

23:33

you should be asking the people

23:35

over at American Financing. They have

23:37

salary based mortgage consultants. That means

23:39

they're not making money by selling

23:41

something to you. They're working for

23:43

you. They can help you break

23:46

free from that debt. Reclaim your

23:48

paycheck, your peace of mind, your

23:50

entire financial life. Imagine. What

23:52

you could do with the

23:54

money that you're currently pouring into

23:56

those high interest debts if

23:58

they stayed in your own account.

24:22

Easter week. How

24:25

do I know? Because the

24:27

New York Times got Jesus all

24:29

wrong this last Sunday. I

24:31

don't know if you

24:33

saw. There was an

24:36

op -ed in the

24:38

New York Times on

24:40

Sunday that said Christ's

24:42

mission was all about

24:45

an anti -Roman revolt. No.

24:49

No, no, it wasn't.

24:51

That was Barabbas. That

24:53

is why Judas turned

24:55

him in. As he's

24:58

like, where is this Messiah? Messiah

25:00

is supposed to come. And no,

25:02

that's not what the Messiah was

25:04

doing. And, you know, you could

25:06

excuse it if it was just

25:08

a New York Times, you know,

25:10

op -ed writer. But it's not. This

25:12

is from the Episcopal Reverend Ann

25:14

Ruth Thayer. And

25:17

he says, Palm Sunday

25:19

was a protest, not

25:21

a procession. Oh, shut

25:23

up. Jesus, he

25:25

said, was killed for threatening the power of

25:28

the Roman Empire. No, he wasn't. No,

25:30

he wasn't. And by the way, he only

25:32

says that because, well, A, he has

25:34

not read the Bible, apparently, because didn't Pilate

25:36

say, I don't find any guilt. I

25:38

don't find anything wrong with this man. Why

25:40

are you bringing him to me? But,

25:44

you know. I'm not

25:46

a preacher. I'm not as

25:48

smart as the river and fire who

25:51

brought, now it's going to come as

25:53

a surprise to you, brought

25:55

the New York Times reader to

25:57

the conclusion that Jesus was fighting

25:59

the Roman Empire just like all

26:01

the other saviors that are out

26:03

there right now that are fighting

26:05

against Donald Trump. Oh

26:10

my, oh my,

26:12

uh, hail. Is

26:14

waiting for you. All

26:18

right. I can't take. I

26:21

can't take the talk of

26:23

justice anymore. I can't. I can't.

26:25

Because nobody knows. What

26:28

justice even is anymore. No

26:30

justice. No peace. Okay. So

26:32

you're lighting Tesla's on fire.

26:34

Okay. You're spraying red paint

26:36

across churches. And you're chanting,

26:38

you know, from the river

26:40

to the sea, Palestine will

26:42

be free. And that's for

26:44

justice? They

26:47

say it like it's holy,

26:49

like justice is a new

26:51

gospel. They don't even know

26:53

what the word means. They

26:55

have no idea where it

26:57

even comes from. It doesn't

26:59

come from TikTok mobs or

27:01

masked arsonists. It doesn't come

27:03

from a university president who

27:05

can't even define genocide. It

27:09

doesn't come from

27:11

rage. Justice. is born

27:13

from law, real

27:15

law, divine

27:17

law. That law

27:19

passed down to a very

27:22

small suffering people in the

27:24

desert called the Jews. The

27:26

very bedrock of justice

27:28

is the Old Testament.

27:31

It teaches us

27:33

that the

27:36

world is not

27:38

chaos. That right

27:40

and wrong are not subjective. That

27:42

every man, even a king, is

27:44

accountable before God. You know, eye for

27:46

an eye, it says that in

27:48

the Bible. Okay, all right, okay. Yeah,

27:53

that wasn't said because

27:55

vengeance was good,

27:57

but because it limited

27:59

vengeance. Okay, we're

28:02

talking about 5 ,000

28:04

years ago. It

28:06

put a boundary on

28:08

bloodlust. It was the

28:10

first step taken away

28:12

from being barbaric to

28:15

each other. And

28:17

then after that, something miraculous,

28:19

literally miraculous happened. The

28:21

next Jewish lawmaker came, and

28:23

not to abolish the

28:25

law, but to fulfill the

28:27

law. His name was

28:29

Jesus. Jesus

28:33

came and said, you've heard eye

28:35

for an eye, but I tell

28:37

you now, turn the other cheek.

28:39

Do you understand how revolutionary and

28:41

radical that was? He

28:44

came for justice,

28:46

but not justice

28:48

for vengeance. He

28:52

transformed justice into

28:54

something with mercy.

28:58

And that's the problem with the modern left

29:00

right now. That's the thing that they

29:02

just don't get. They shout about justice, but

29:04

what they really want is revenge. And

29:07

the movement is not political.

29:09

It is religious. Make no mistake.

29:11

In fact, I think it's

29:13

even more religious. You know, we've

29:15

talked about how it has

29:17

religious dogma. It has priests. It

29:20

has excommunication. It has all

29:22

of that. But it is also,

29:24

it's becoming a religion of

29:26

death. It is becoming evil. It

29:28

is evil at its core. Because

29:31

any religion

29:33

without forgiveness. Any

29:37

religion that doesn't have

29:39

the Savior, that doesn't have

29:41

grace, only collective guilt

29:43

and collective redemption that says

29:45

you were born the wrong

29:47

color, you voted for the

29:49

wrong guy, you used the

29:52

wrong word, confess, submit, pay

29:54

reparations. Anything that

29:56

says that, that's

29:59

not justice. That's

30:01

unforgiving tribalism.

30:05

That's the same pagan

30:08

instinct that Jesus came

30:10

to defeat. And defeat

30:12

it, he did. Real

30:14

justice, eternal justice, begins

30:17

with you, begins with

30:19

me. That's why I'm

30:21

a guy. Look, I

30:24

am a recovering alcoholic.

30:26

I made every mistake

30:28

you could possibly make.

30:34

You know, I didn't think I was worthy

30:36

of anything. I didn't think God would pay

30:38

attention to me at all, would, should pay

30:40

attention to me at all, should or would

30:42

love me at all, because I had just

30:44

done things that in my head were just

30:46

the worst of the worst. And I know

30:48

you have those in your head, too. And

30:51

we're all hiding them. And

30:54

that's part of a pagan belief. And

31:00

there's nothing we can do to get

31:02

out of it. There's nothing we can do.

31:04

You know, you can save every cat

31:06

and every dog and every animal and every

31:09

whale on earth, and that's not going

31:11

to help. Neither

31:13

is the mob. Neither is the

31:15

government. And you

31:17

don't better yourself or

31:19

society by electing high priests

31:21

to rule over you. You

31:26

better yourself by

31:28

changing you. by

31:30

changing your heart, by

31:32

aligning yourself with

31:34

true justice, with

31:37

truth.

31:41

When you change your

31:44

heart and all

31:46

you want to pursue

31:48

is the truth,

31:50

honestly, you become Christ

31:52

-like. I'm a

31:54

long way from that. I don't want to say

31:56

that I'm... Christ -like, I

31:58

am way away from that. I

32:04

wish I was closer. I

32:06

work to be closer. But

32:08

that's the message of Easter. We're

32:11

never going to make it. Never

32:13

going to make it. Now listen, what is

32:15

the difference? The left will say, you're

32:17

never going to make it. Because you were born

32:19

the wrong color, you're never going to make it.

32:21

Okay. And there's nothing

32:23

you can do about that one,

32:25

except hire some high priest. to

32:28

take care of it for you. That won't

32:30

change anything in your life. I'm

32:32

saying, Jesus said, you're never going

32:34

to make it. You're never going

32:36

to be me. You can't. You

32:38

won't. But you don't have

32:40

to do anything except just follow

32:42

me. Just

32:45

change yourself.

32:48

It's not about the collective.

32:50

You'll never be able to

32:52

earn it. It's just change

32:54

you and align yourself with

32:56

the truth. You

32:59

know, if social media had existed

33:01

in 33 AD, Jesus, you know, he

33:03

had 12 followers. Thumbs up on

33:05

that one. And every one

33:07

of them would have been

33:09

deplatformed. Every single one of them.

33:12

They would have been flagged

33:14

for misinformation or disinformation, shadow banned

33:16

for hate speech. The hashtag

33:18

resistance Rome would have trended 24

33:20

hours before it was censored

33:23

as well. But that wasn't his

33:25

message. Render under Caesar that

33:27

which is Caesar's. The

33:29

world, and especially the power,

33:32

always hates his kind of

33:34

justice. He

33:37

rode into Jerusalem, not

33:40

in a tank, but on

33:42

a donkey. As

33:44

humble as you

33:46

could possibly be. Not

33:49

even a horse,

33:51

a donkey. He

33:55

didn't burn the city. He

33:57

washed feet. He didn't condemn

33:59

the woman in adultery. He

34:01

defended her. He didn't overthrow

34:03

Caesar. He overthrew death. You

34:05

want a revolution? There's

34:08

only one revolution that will

34:10

ever lead to true peace

34:12

and real justice. And

34:16

that one started in a garden

34:18

tomb with a stone that was rolled

34:20

away and a man who walked

34:22

out alive again. That,

34:26

Reverend Thayer, is

34:29

what Easter is all about. Not

34:33

because justice was

34:35

demanded, but because he

34:37

came to satisfy

34:39

justice. And not because we

34:41

earned it, but because he

34:43

gave it. And all we

34:45

have to do to participate

34:47

in there is accept that gift.

34:49

That's it. And

34:55

if that truth ever took

34:57

hold again, not in just our

34:59

churches, but in our homes,

35:01

in our hearts, in our schools,

35:03

in our streets, then and

35:05

only then will justice change everything.

35:07

Then and only then will

35:09

justice roll like a mighty river.

35:14

But let's never forget,

35:16

justice has a

35:18

name. And

35:21

its name is Jesus. Buying

35:25

or selling a home is more

35:28

than just a transaction. It is personal.

35:30

Think about where are your kids

35:32

going to grow up? Where will you

35:34

celebrate the holidays? You know, where

35:36

you'll be when you finally start that

35:38

garden you've been dreaming about. It's

35:40

your sanctuary. It's your safe haven. It's

35:42

your future. Now imagine entrusting all

35:44

of that, your dreams, your financial future,

35:47

to somebody you barely know. That's

35:49

why I created realestateagentsitrust.com. Every single agent

35:51

on our team. is not just

35:53

vetted, they are handpicked because they're genuinely

35:55

passionate about guiding you through one

35:57

of life's biggest decisions. We have real

35:59

estate agents all over the country,

36:01

but our waiting list to be a

36:03

part of this, because we don't

36:06

just pick anybody, we keep it small

36:08

enough to where we can monitor

36:10

every single transaction and stay in touch

36:12

with you, the buyer, to make

36:14

sure that it was a good experience.

36:16

We probably have about 10 ,000 people

36:18

on our waiting list, but they're

36:20

not going to be a real estate

36:23

agent. Unless one of the other

36:25

real estate agents, we find, is not

36:27

doing what they said they would.

36:29

And be honorable and do the right

36:31

thing. They're not just

36:33

going to stick a sign in your yard and

36:35

disappear. They're going to be with you all the

36:37

way from the open house, through the inspections, all

36:39

the way to the closing table, ensuring that your

36:41

new place is not just a house, it's a

36:44

home. Realestateagentsitrust.com.

36:46

That's

36:49

realestateagentsitrust.com. Back.

36:53

We'll be right back. So

37:05

you work hard every day, you know,

37:07

and you probably save money where you

37:09

can and you cut costs where you

37:11

can. You do the opposite of what

37:13

the government does. You probably invest. You

37:15

probably try hard to do it responsibly.

37:17

But a difficult thing to consider is,

37:19

do you know if... If your investments

37:21

are going toward things that you support,

37:23

do you know where that cash is

37:25

going? Because, you know, look, Wall Street

37:27

doesn't care about your values. They care

37:29

about profit and power and pushing agendas,

37:32

ESG scores and corporate activism and policies

37:34

that quietly chip away at everything you

37:36

believe in. Too much of Wall Street

37:38

actually believes in those things. You'd never

37:40

write a check to support those things,

37:42

but if your portfolio is with a

37:44

big firm, you probably already are. It's

37:46

time to take control. Constitution wealth was

37:48

built for people like you, people who

37:50

believe in family and faith and freedom

37:52

and financial integrity. They don't just help

37:54

you grow your money, but they do

37:56

do that. Of course, that's very important.

37:58

They also make sure your money, though,

38:00

grows in kind of ways that you

38:02

actually believe in. A future rooted in

38:04

biblical principles, personal responsibility, in liberty. With

38:06

Constitution Wealth, you'll also know exactly where

38:09

every dollar goes. And you'll know that

38:15

is about strategy. It's about conviction. And

38:17

righty. So there's some more

38:49

news on the Easter front.

38:53

Cuba banned Christians from celebrating

38:55

Palm Sunday in the

38:57

traditional Catholic Cuban Catholic way.

38:59

The solemn stations of

39:01

the cross had been rehearsed

39:04

and prepared. And it

39:06

was supposed to happen Palm

39:08

Sunday, 6 p .m. And

39:10

the government. released

39:12

on radio that, sorry, it's

39:14

been canceled. It has not yet

39:17

been approved. So they

39:19

couldn't do it without the government

39:21

approval. Stations of

39:23

the Cross commemorates, if you're

39:25

a Catholic, it's all of

39:27

the different things that happened

39:30

on the last day of

39:32

Christ, all the way to

39:34

the resurrection of Christ. And

39:36

the regime hasn't said why

39:38

they've canceled this. But I'll

39:41

tell you why. I'll tell

39:43

you why. Because

39:45

repressive regimes go one

39:47

of two ways.

39:49

They're either Iran, and

39:52

it's all about

39:54

God and some distorted

39:56

view of God,

39:58

or it's godless. When

40:01

people have actual faith

40:03

and they know about actual

40:05

justice and they know

40:07

about actual God and actual

40:09

Jesus, That

40:12

empowers them. This

40:14

is why from kings in the past,

40:16

the priests of the past had to

40:18

be in Latin. You can't read it

40:20

yourself. We'll read it

40:22

for you because you can control

40:25

people. But if you let

40:27

people actually read it for themselves,

40:29

if they actually know what

40:31

the words say, it's unbelievably empowering

40:33

and no government can shut

40:35

that down. Because

40:38

they'll stand up

40:40

because They're serving God

40:42

and they won't lose their first citizenship

40:44

in the kingdom of God for

40:46

their second citizenship. They appreciate their second

40:48

citizenship. I do. But I'm not

40:50

going to do something that gets me

40:52

kicked out of the first citizenship.

40:54

No, that passport's much more important to

40:56

me than the secondary passport of

40:58

the United States of America. That's why

41:00

they're doing it. They have

41:02

to control the people of religion.

41:06

That's why religion is under

41:08

attack. That's why

41:10

religion is always under attack,

41:12

but especially now. And that is

41:14

the reason why we were

41:16

a good nation. Yes, we had

41:19

problems. And yes, as always, religion,

41:21

be it the religion

41:24

of the God of Abraham,

41:26

Isaac, and Jacob, or

41:28

Islam, or this new socialist

41:30

progressive religion, it can

41:32

always go bad. It

41:35

can always go dark because people are

41:37

people. But

41:39

when the people discipline themselves to

41:41

know what that religion is,

41:43

as long as that is a

41:45

religion that talks about true

41:47

justice and true peace and how

41:49

to live and serve one

41:51

another, that's something powerful that no

41:53

man can stop. It's

42:02

Easter week. we'll have more on

42:04

this in a second Also, I to

42:06

I want to get to a

42:08

couple of other things here next first

42:10

of all I don't if you

42:13

saw that the New York Times is

42:15

now admitting that ADHD is a

42:17

scam You see this

42:19

I mean they're not quite saying that

42:21

pretty close They're that if there's no

42:23

real evidence of you know some of

42:25

the... You know, you disagree with I

42:27

don't think that's what they're saying. I

42:29

mean they they are saying that some

42:31

of the treatments don't seem to be

42:33

as effective long term. you think speed

42:35

is it's not a it's not necessarily

42:37

a good effective treatment? they're saying you

42:39

know like autism, there's no test for

42:41

it right? Like it's a series of

42:43

Right. that's not saying it doesn't exist

42:45

that's they're not saying it's a scam

42:48

that's not what they're saying that's not

42:50

with at least not the I maybe

42:52

you read something different. I don't know.

42:54

we'll get into that all right next This

43:05

is Glenn Beck.
