Why Bill O’Reilly Predicts Biden Will Suspend His 2024 Campaign

According to media reports, President Biden’s family has encouraged him to stay in the 2024 race. But Bill O’Reilly believes that Biden will still end up dropping out. Bill joins Glenn to explain why he believes this, and it revolves around former President Barack Obama and Biden’s former Chief of Staff Ron Klain. Bill also gives his take on who the Democrats will choose to replace Biden: Will it be Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer ... or will Michelle Obama come out of hiding at the last minute? And can any of them beat Trump?

GLENN: You know, today is the kind of day, that you miss people like Bill O'Reilly. And I don't say that lightly, or often.

But you miss the days where you can flip on the news, and you would have a guy who is credible. And he would have some sources. Or he would at least know, because of his contacts, what's really going on in Washington, DC. Well, Bill O'Reilly, of BillO'Reilly.com.

Today is one of the shows that you will miss. You will miss a lot if you don't see it. He's on with us now.

He tweeted: The decision has been made. The president will quit the campaign.

Now, he tweeted that yesterday.

Bill O'Reilly joins me now.

BILL: Who is this? Glenn, who? Glenn Beck.

GLENN: Wow. Wow.

I got my first name. Bill O'Reilly.

That's a first to use my first name.

BILL: That's the first time. How are you, Beck?

I haven't talked to you in a while.

GLENN: Yeah. I saw your tweet. Then I think you reached out to me, and then I reached back out. Because I was going to reach back out to you.

All right. Spill the beans.

What do you know?

BILL: Okay. So the two people in charge of this are Barack Obama and Ron Klain. The former chief of staff of Joe Biden.

For the first two years. So they huddled and they actually talked to Joe.

I don't know whether it was on Zoom, or they -- in New York.

Obama was in New York, at a fundraiser, and then so was Biden.

But it's really tamped down.

And both Klain and Obama. And this is what my tweet was. decided that if -- so when I say that, what does that mean?

It means that they -- the two most powerful men in the Democratic Party right now, they are the two most powerful people, have said to Biden, you can't win.

You cannot beat Trump.

And he's the devil. He's evil.

But if you don't get out, you are helping evil. That's how --

GLENN: Okay. Hang on just a second. I don't think that that -- I don't think that would phase Joe Biden. He knows that.

He has a son. Anyway, this reminds me of Nixon. Where the tables turned on Nixon. And he lost the support of key members of the Senate.

They walked in and said, you've got to go. You've got to go. Now, are they going to offer any carrot or stick, if edgers go?

BILL: Well, that's an excellent analysis, Beck. You have to be partisan to be --

GLENN: Well. Gotten much older.

BILL: But it is very, very similar. So the Nixon people were telling the American public, oh, he's not going anywhere.
This is just -- he made a couple of mistakes. But, you know, he's a great president. Blah, blah, blah.

But behind the scenes, the Republicans said, hey. If you don't get out, they're going to arrest you. They're going to -- they're going to charge you with crimes.

And that's why Nixon went to the helicopter and waved to everybody.

Now, it's being presented by the, if you don't get out, you will go down in history as a villain. Because Trump will win. And it will all be your fault. 100 percent.

Now, Biden as you rightly pointed out, it's not he really -- he's not capable anymore.

Actually digesting that. So it's his wife that's making all the calls. So they go to Camp David over the weekend. They're still there.

I think their helicopter shows up in about 20 minutes. All right?

And she is going no way. No way we're living.

We're fighting this to the end. Jill Biden -- Joe Biden is just sitting there. You know, eating his sugar Frosted Flakes.

He didn't have anything to do with this. The fight now is between the party elders, and Jill Biden.

Who is digging it in, and saying, no. No.

Joe does everything I tell him to do. And he's not going to leave because we think we can overcome this. Now, let me give you the reason why they won't overcome it. That the Bidens may leave. And they may leave very quickly now.

They're trying to figure out, the Democrats, when to make this announcement. All right. They obviously have to get the Bidens on board.

But they also have to go to some kind of Plan B. Right?

So we will go to the convention with these people. They don't that have yet, okay?

GLENN: Well, how do they do that? And say they respect democracy?

I mean, there's no way to do that.

PAT: No. No. Yes, there is. Absolutely there is.

GLENN: Well, there's the superdelegates.

BILL: Yeah. All Biden has to do is say, I'm retiring for health reasons. Which you'll see. And I'm going to give my delegates. Whomever the party wants. And then Biden would be totally out of it. And they would tell him, go the delegate to see Kamala, to Newsom, to Whitmore, or whatever. That's -- and it's not that complicated.

LBJ did it, and it's ironic because he did it, and then the convention was in Chicago and all hell broke loose in '68. Well, where is the Democratic convention this year?

GLENN: Chicago. And all hell is going to break loose.

BILL: You bet. And all the anarchists and pro-Hamas people will be there.

Okay. So the reason why this is -- in my opinion, but it's more than an opinion.

Incontrovertible is that Biden's support was thin to begin with. He doesn't have core support.

It's all hate Trump support. Okay?

And so there aren't many Democrats. If you believe the CVS poll. To care if Biden is the nominee.

They don't have an emotional investment in Biden. They just want to see Trump lose. That's hygiene.

So he doesn't have a cadre of people outside of Jill.

And maybe Hunter, I don't know.

But he doesn't have that.

He doesn't have Congress.

I mean, the Congress people running around, undermining the hell out of him.

And his own people. You saw Jamie Raskin do that. My God!

GLENN: Uh-huh.

BILL: So he doesn't have a core support in Congress, or among the folks. They say they raised a lot of money from the debate. I'm suspect. But I don't think you're going to raise a lot of money going forward. Right?

GLENN: Okay. So, Joe. All right. So, Bill.

Who -- who do you think is most likely to replace him?

BILL: I don't know. But I will tell you who wants it.

So Kamala wants it. Kamala will not go quietly into the night.

And she will play the race card.

Okay?

Gender and race card.

That's what she's got.

She'll play it.

Newsom, I understand, just ordered hair products, a lot more.

So --

GLENN: Right.

BILL: He obviously wants it. Whit miles an hour in Michigan, wants it.

All right. Those are the three right there.

Now, they would like --

GLENN: What about big Mike? What about big Mike?

What about big Mike?

BILL: Big Mike. Who is big Mike?

GLENN: That would be Michelle Obama. That would be Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama.

BILL: I'm sorry, Beck. I didn't get the big Mike reference.

This is -- it is -- I have never in my 50-year career in journalism see any famous person locked down like Michelle Obama.

You can't get a whisper out of that. Anywhere. So obviously, that would be the savior, right?

GLENN: Yeah.

BILL: But there isn't any indication one way or the other. That she wants to do it.

And those of us who know Michelle Obama, and I know her a little bit. She is a very strong woman. Barack Obama is not going to go, hey, Michelle, you're running. No.

GLENN: No. No. You don't say that to big Mike. Listen, let me ask you, Bill. Let's not talk politics.

Let's talk security of the country.

First, who is running the country right now? Go ahead.

BILL: The three guys there in the White House, the chief of staff, the national security guy. That's the Irish guy.

GLENN: Yeah. Look at this. This is what we voted for. The Irish guy.

BILL: Right. Right.

GLENN: Jeez.

BILL: Jake Sullivan.

Thank you very much everybody.
And the -- his counsels. But you it's a triumvirate.

In the White House.

Nobody ever heard of these people.

They get no -- every once in a while, they go out. But not often.

And it's an alert, by the way. Very serious alert on US bases overseas and amnesties about a terror attack. Very serious.

GLENN: I know. I know.

BILL: So we have an incapacitated president. Go ahead.

GLENN: You're right. We have an incapacitated president. What the heck -- you know, who ordered the -- our nuclear sub to surface in the Norwegian sea this weekend, to send a message?

And it's kind of important to know who is actually running the show there.

Because we're on the verge of -- of war.

If we're stupid!

And I can't gauge, who is actually making the decisions.

Should the president step down, from the presidency?

BILL: Yeah. That would be Sullivan. Okay?

Look, this is a very, very chaotic White House.

You know, I got a book coming out, confronting the presidents.

We're with every president. And I sent that to you, Glenn.

And I'm going to hire someone to read it to you. I'm going to pay somebody to follow you around, and read you this book.

Because it's unbelievable about the difference in some presidents, and bide citizen the second worst president in our history.

Trump exaggerates saying he's the worst.

Nobody is worse than James Buchanan. Who actually lit the fuse of the Civil War.

But Biden is second.

GLENN: Hmm.

BILL: And it is so to me, because I do know what is happening on a daily basis. In the White House.

This man, there are three out of five days. And Axios has about 50 percent of this right today.

He's not even in the Oval Office.

He didn't even make it down from the residents.

That's how incapacitated he is.

And Jill Biden makes that call.

If you look at his schedule, and on the No Spin News. My news broadcast. We reported every day.

Most of the time, he has nothing on his schedule, but a fund raiser where he raises the teleprompter. That's it. He doesn't do anything.

And everybody in his administration knows this, which is why after the debate catastrophe, this is unbelievably shocking.

That they won't tell the truth to the American public.

The Democratic Party will not tell the truth.

This has been going on for a year.

It didn't just happen.

GLENN: Okay. Last question.

I have to get this in.

Is this -- is this better or worse, for Donald Trump, if Biden leaves.

Does it change it enough to -- to change the game, and people will just then say, oh, I will just go with somebody new.

BILL: Trump would defeat Joe Biden now no question. That's number one.

GLENN: No question.

BILL: Right. He beats Biden.

If Biden, when Biden steps aside, if it's Michelle Obama, that's --

GLENN: It's over.

BILL: -- formidable for Trump. That's trouble. Anybody else he can beat fairly handily at this point. Because remember, Trump got 70 million votes in 2020.

I estimate, the most he could lose on the 72 million would be 10 percent. That, again, brings it up to 65 million.

Biden will get nowhere near that.

Did Angel Studios just release a new CHRISTMAS CLASSIC movie?

Angel Studios and Dallas Jenkins, the director of "The Chosen," have released a new movie that many are saying could become a new Christmas classic. The film, called, "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever", is based on the hit book and tells the story of misbehaved kids who put on a Christmas pageant and shock their community. Dallas Jenkins joins Glenn Beck to go behind the scenes of the film, which is in theaters now!

GLENN: Dallas Jenkins joins us. Hello, Dallas.

How are you?

DALLAS: Good, I'm actually wanting to write down what you were just talking about. It sounds great.

GLENN: I'm telling you, every school should have these things. Nobody wants to arm teachers. If you put your hand around the corner of the door. And somebody in the hallway. Yes, kids will be hit with tear gas. But nobody will die.

And the police can take that guy down.

It's crazy.

DALLAS: Yeah. No. It sounds amazing. I'm literally going, I'm going to get them for my home.

GLENN: Yeah, yeah. They're great. How are you?

DALLAS: Here's the thing. I'm looking at you, and you're a handsome guy. But behind you is this big picture where you look phenomenal.

And it's -- it's like, it's not good for you to put it right behind you.

Because I'm like, wow. Wait a second. There's a difference. Like, you're -- again, you look good in person too.

GLENN: That's me happy.

DALLAS: But over there you look happy and rugged and handsome. Wait a minute.

GLENN: Yeah. So tell me -- tell me the story of the film Best Christmas Pageant Ever.

I have -- I admit to you. I have not seen it. I have others who have seen it, and just rave about it. I've seen the trailer.

This is before you ever sent me anything.
I didn't know who it was. And I watched the trailer.

And I'm like, this looks fantastic.

It looks heartwarming and funny. And all of it. And it's true!

DALLAS: And I really think -- we talked before. This is your kind of movie. I really think you will really love it.

I read this book almost 20 years ago to my kids. My wife brought it home. And the first couple of chapters, it's been around 50 years. I read it in public school, which is why I was so surprised by what happened when I read it again to my kids. First few chapters, I'm laughing. It's very witty. Very nostalgic. Just a terrific story.

And I get to the last chapter. And I'm going, I don't remember how Jesus-y this was.

Like I don't know how we got away with reading this in public school. I guess because of the Christmas of it all.

GLENN: Right.

DALLAS: I get to the last chapter.

GLENN: You get to Oklahoma?

DALLAS: Yeah. Illinois. I don't know. Yeah, a little different.

GLENN: Okay.

DALLAS: But, anyway, the first -- the story is the six Herdmen kids. The worst kids in the world. The ones that everyone is looking down on.

GLENN: This is -- I just want to read it -- it's not true? Okay. Somebody told me it was a true story.

DALLAS: No. That's The Chosen.

GLENN: Okay.

DALLAS: But this -- she captured, it feels very real. It's very nostalgic. Remember the movie, the Christmas Story. Very much that feel to it.

In this case, these six kids. They're on the wrong sides of the tracks. They're in poverty. They're mean.

They're feeler.

And this church and had this town, don't want them around. And they hijack the town's Christmas pageants. They take over the roles. They bully the other kids into saying, we will play these roles of Mary and Joseph. So of course everyone is scandalized and thinks it will be the worse Christmas pageant ever.

GLENN: Because they're so un-Christ-like.

DALLAS: Right. And so much like Mary and Joseph.

Like you can't have this awful girl playing Mother Mary. Mary is beautiful and sweet and pretty, and always looks clean.

So they get to the performance of the pageant. And I don't want to give anything away.

Of course, it's called The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.

But we get to that last chapter. I start crying so hard.

I can't see the pages. My kids are looking at me like, what is going on? And my wife Amanda goes, give me the book. Let me read it.

She starts reading it. She starts crying.

We are passing the book back and forth to each other, while the other one recovers.

The story is just so beautiful.

It's because of these kids' poverty, because of their outsider status, they're actually closer to the heart of the true story than anyone else is.

And so it ends up transforming this town and the town, of course. So everyone is learning something new, because these kids have never heard the story before.

So they're asking all this question.

GLENN: Oh, that's a better ending than I thought -- I thought that it was they -- the -- the people that were helping the kids, actually kind of changed the kids to have those kids transform the -- it's fantastic.

DALLAS: That's the thing. The chump learns from these outsiders.

We've taken for granted the Christmas story and the Christmas pageant, and we think of the sweet little nativity.

And the halo around everyone's head. And the kids are going, why wouldn't they let a pregnant woman into the inn? And they're asking all these questions, that we take for granted. And so their perspective on the story is just closer to the truth of it.

Because of their unique perspective. And outsider status.

And so it just was so beautiful. There's a very common connective thread between that. And the chosen.

My passion has always been. And we talked about this before. I'm taking Jesus and the apostles down from stained glass windows.

Down from the pretty paintings that we've seen. And try to give you the most active direct portrayal of the humanity of these people, and their true story. And that's what really stood out to me, about the best Christmas pageant ever.

It's funny, it's witty. It's a traditional Christmas classic. Bits got this -- it's probably the only of the movies that I would consider to be Christmas classics. And hopefully, this becomes one of them.

That really does put a spotlight on the true story of Jesus.

But in a fun way.

GLENN: It's amazing to me how snotty Christians can get.

And maybe it's because they either -- they either didn't have that kind of experience, or didn't need the redemption of Christ as much as others do.

But the -- you know, Christ came for -- for the ones that needed redemption. We all need it.

But needed the redemption really badly.

He -- he was always around those kinds of kids.

GLENN: Yeah. He came for the sick. Not for the healthy. There's a line in the trailer or the movie.

Where the mom is volunteering to do this pageant. Everyone in the church is telling her, no. Just get rid of the Herdmans. We need to protect our sacred Christmas pageant. And at one point, her daughter says, shouldn't we just get rid of them?

You know, and she says, I think that would contradict the whole point of the story.

GLENN: Right.

DALLAS: And she said Jesus came for the Herdmans as much as he came for you and me.

GLENN: Right. He was -- everyone in that story was rejected and despised.

DALLAS: Yes. And there was also a moment where the herd men walk out on stage. And they are wearing the clothes.

They cobbled together at home.

To portray Mary and Joseph instead of the pretty costumes that were given to them by the church. Right?

And one of the girls in the choir, who is against them, goes, look at them. They look like refugees. And the main character is looking at them. Yeah. They do.

And she's smiling going, this is what Mary and Joseph were. They were refugees. They were outsiders.

It's those kinds of moments that unlike some of these other Christmas classics that I love.

You know, Elf and Christmas story. Home Alone. They're all great.

But this is a movie that has all those elements of humor and what not. But then there's these moments that they go, oh, my goodness. That is the true story. I think the moment about Christians and those in America. I think sometimes we -- it's not that we need redemption less. If anything, we need it more.

It's our awareness of our need. Which sometimes goes away if you live comfortably.

Comfort can sometimes cause you to take for granted. What -- who came for us. Not comfortable.

Jesus was born into a stable, into a rough environment on the run.

Hiding. Outsiders. Refugee. All that stuff. He came as a suffering servant.

Not as a conquering king.

And we sometimes forget that.

GLENN: Yeah. And it's -- it's remarkable to me, the best Christians -- I put -- I put a few people like Billy Graham into other categories.

But the best Christians I have met.

Regular people.

Are those people usually from the Middle East. Or from China.

The ones who are just like, oh, they -- they have to know God. Because it's literally all that gets them through their day.

DALLAS: Oh, yeah. I have a friend who runs this ministry. Called world relief.

And he said, the church in Iran is cool, man.

GLENN: Oh, I bet it is.

DALLAS: He said, we just had another great bopping. They were like, what? We had a bombing of one of our churches. We've never been closer to God.

We've never been more desperate for him.

We've never -- and I'm like, man, I wish I could reach that level of passion and desperation. Without needing to be oppressed for it.

GLENN: Yeah. I went to Iraq years ago, and we were rescuing the Yazidis. And I was supposed to come and pick them up.

And then we were going to take them to some other country in Europe.

And so when I get on the plane in New York. I'm told, you may not be able to go see them.

Because ISIS has just targeted the church, at the time, you're supposed to arrive, and they're having a final service.

And so I'm on the plane. Wondering, I mean. What am I going to do when we get there?

And I get there, and they say -- I say, so where are we meeting?

I said, oh, the church. Did ISIS?

They said, no. They're not changing their plans.

And I said, okay.

And then halfway through church, Russia said that they were going to start bombing that city.

And I --

DALLAS: You laughed at this, and said, this is not something we think about in America.

GLENN: Shh should we all maybe -- is there a shelter around here?

They just kept singing and praying.

And they said to me, oh, if we die, we're with God. Right now, we're fine.

This is great.

It was amazing to see it.

DALLAS: Very humbling. And so that's the kind of thing I'm hoping, not only that it reaches me. But the viewer, when I do the chosen. When I do a movie like best Christmas pageant ever.

It's, can we somehow remove these -- sometimes it's religion. Sometimes it's our sin.

Sometimes it's our art. That gets us -- gets us further away from that -- what actually happened. And from that desperation. And from that authenticity.

So in this case, it's wrapped in a fun, PG-rated Christmas movie. But it's all the same intention of, man, I would love to get that level of direct connection.

So connected to Jesus. That everything around you is so irrelevant.

GLENN: This is so important. This Christmas. I mean, I've been fighting Santa.

Not in a -- I didn't want to be that bad dad. We want Santa. Santa.

You know, I had fun as a kid with Santa. But I -- it was a different culture. The culture said, Christmas was about Jesus, not Santa. And Santa was just the fun part.

And it is so important. And this is a fun way to bring your kids to the true story of Christmas.

It's called the best Christmas pageant ever. It's in theaters now.

Are you going to release it, on video, on demand before Christmas or not?

DALLAS: Just close to around Christmas. But I do hope the people see it in theaters now. We want it to last in theaters for as long as possible. But yes eventually, shortly before Christmas, it will be available at home as well.

GLENN: Yeah. I will tell you, that the -- it -- it speaks a lot -- I think this came out November 5th. Yeah, eighth.

DALLAS: Right after the election.

GLENN: And it is doing really well.

This early in the season.

DALLAS: New York Times liked it, Glenn. It's got a 91 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

GLENN: Wormhole.

DALLAS: I know, there's a glitch in the Matrix.

There seems to be this reaction of, wow. This movie does take me to where Christmas should be about. And it's been a really, really cool -- really cool experience, to see the reaction.

GLENN: That's great. Can you hang on just a second? I have to take a one-minute break.

We are with Dallas Jenkins, the creator/director of the Chosen. And the new movie, must-see, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.

See it this week in theaters. It will be great to kick off the holiday, and kind of also remind us. Hey, God just played a big role in our lives here recently. We saw some miracles. Let's thank him. Let's thank him for that.

GLENN: That is part of the Christmas album done by my daughter with the Czech Symphony Orchestra.

Comes out, Black Friday.

It's called home For Christmas. Can we play the trailer of the Best Christmas pageant ever?

Please.

Listen.
(music)

VOICE: They're advertising it on TV now?

VOICE: The pageant is an especially big deal this year. It's the 75th anniversary.

VOICE: I want to be of special mention to Grace for volunteering to direct it.

VOICE: You did, what?

VOICE: Oh, no. Did somebody die?

VOICE: It's worse than that, son.

VOICE: It's going to be the best Christmas pageant ever.

VOICE: Oh, no. It's the Herdmans now.

VOICE: The Herdmans are absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world.

VOICE: What did they do now, dear? Break another window?

VOICE: Set something on fire?

VOICE: Steal your lunch. And then punch you for not having any candy.

No, even worse.

We're going to be in your Bible.

VOICE: Herdmans in church.

VOICE: Oh, boy.

VOICE: We take the pageant seriously.

VOICE: It's about community and tradition.

VOICE: What do you all suggest? That I kick the Herdmans out of the church?
VOICE: Yes.
VOICE: I want to be Mary, and Ralph wants to be Joe.

VOICE: And the angel of the Lord.
(laughter)

VOICE: The Herdmans shouldn't be here. They're a poor influence.

VOICE: You don't look like any Mary I've seen before.

VOICE: Don't touch him. I'm happy to take over the part at any time.

VOICE: I can't just kick them out.

VOICE: I thought you might all be interested in one of my stops.

VOICE: You never told me you visited the Herdmans.

VOICE: I got the biggest ham for you guys. Is your mom home?

VOICE: Not when the sun is up.
(music)

VOICE: What if the Herdmans ruin this for you?

VOICE: They probably will, but it's not about me. Jesus was born for the herd man's as much as he was for us. We will be missing the whole point of the story if we turn them away.

GLENN: The best Christmas pageant ever. It is playing in theaters, right now.

And I've never heard this before. The people that I know that saw it. And that I trust.

They said, Glenn, I saw the trailer. And I saw the trailer. I thought it was great and funny.

I saw the trailer. And it seemed like a little holiday, you know, Hallmark kind of thing.

And they said, the movie is so much better than the trailer. And I've never heard anybody say that about any movie. Ever.

DALLAS: Yeah, typically the trailer is the very best -- the highlights of it.

GLENN: Yeah. So I can't wait. I'm making reservations at the theater for Thanksgiving. After we've -- we have our Thanksgiving. We'll go to the theater at night. And watch the best Christmas pageant ever.

I have to get you to correct something. There was somebody that I was talking to, that goes to a Christian school, here in Dallas.

And they were talking about it. With a more and more friend, who has a child in that school.

And it came up that the Mormons distorted The Chosen because they were involved. And so you can't believe The Chosen scripturally.

And I want you just to verify that you used the set, I think for the first year, from the Mormon Church.

And there -- all churches are involved. But you have -- I said to them. You need to go back to the classroom and say, that Dallas Jenkins has a group of Bible scholars, that look at it from all angles.

And they argue, make sure it's exactly Biblically correct. Correct?

DALLAS: Yes, 100 percent. And number one, I'm an evangelical Protestant. I have the final say and control of every single piece of content in the show. It's not influenced by anybody.

And as I'm sure you wouldn't be that surprised. But all of the Mormon friends or people that I have, that I work with.

I mean, I have people of all backgrounds.

GLENN: Yeah. All faiths.

DALLAS: And lack thereof.

Half of my cast weren't believers. But there hasn't been any arguments. None of them said, well, we wished we would do this instead.

Like, it's the gospels. It's the story of Jesus.

GLENN: It's pretty cut and dry.

DALLAS: The arguments we have about Jesus. Are based on things that took place after he was here. Or before he was here on earth.

It was astonishing some of the rumors. I use a set that was owned by the church.

It's not like they said, okay. Now, if you will use our set, you have to Mormon this up --

GLENN: Yeah.

DALLAS: Because this set doesn't come free.

GLENN: That was the first time I ever had to defend my Christian friend. Against like the Mormons.

It was weird.

DALLAS: Yeah. No. It's been -- it's been wonderful. And a great, great relationship with everyone who was involved.

GLENN: Thank you so much for everything that you do.

Dallas Jenkins. Movie, Best Christmas Pageant Ever. See it.

EXPOSED: The Globalists who control the Legacy Media

In the 1980s, 50 companies controlled 90% of the media. But in 2024, 90% of the media is owned by just SIX giant global corporations! They control the narrative, from the news and TV to film, video games, and the internet. It’s no wonder so many people are brainwashed by the Left’s lies! So, how did we get here? Glenn heads to the chalkboard to break it all down.

WARNING: Is Europe close to being CONQUERED?

Hopefully, Donald Trump will fix our immigration crisis. Because if he doesn't, we have a good idea of what it could turn into. Glenn takes a look at Europe, which is a few years ahead of us. After years of opening their borders to migrants, especially from the Middle East, European countries are now at risk of eventually becoming Islamic strongholds. But it's the Islamists who are the most concerning. Glenn reviews how terrorist attacks and anti-Christian/anti-Jewish hate crimes are on the rise across Europe.

“Miracles CAN happen”: Glenn’s Thanksgiving message after the 2024 election

The events of the 2024 election have given Glenn a new outlook on Thanksgiving this year. For years, he has been begging freedom-loving Americans to stand up for what’s right and return to God. And this year, you did! You gave Donald Trump a strong mandate to gut the Deep State and fix our broken nation. And then, there were the “miracles” of Trump surviving multiple assassination attempts and an endless bombardment from the media and our justice system. This Thanksgiving, there’s a lot for us to be thankful for!

GLENN: So, Stu, how old were you in 1985.

STU: I was nine.

GLENN: You were nine. So you were probably just -- you remember Reagan, clearly.

STU: Yeah. I mean, back to the future, one of my all-time favorite movies.

1955.

'85. That was the year it took place. I remember that distinctly.

GLENN: And you have real memories of the Cold War.

STU: Yeah. For sure.

Of course, Rocky IV, the movie that ended the Cold War. You can accept the time line in your life.

GLENN: Right. So there was a guy that I don't know if you would have remembered.

He was a comedian and he came from around the Iron Curtain, and he and his family got out of the former Soviet Union.

He became a huge hit at the time, because we really didn't see former Soviet citizens.

And especially ones that could tell jokes. And his name was Yakov Smirnoff. Do you remember him?

STU: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

GLENN: Do you remember him? I just saw something from him, the other day, about Thanksgiving. And I haven't seen this. I don't know if I even say it in 1985, but it's worth listening to.

Here he is. Yakov Smirnoff, just fresh from the Soviet Union, talking about Thanksgiving. Listen to this.

VOICE: It's Thanksgiving. And I will tell you, it's my favorite holiday. I like parades without missiles.

When I first was explained about Thanksgiving in America. I said, wait a minute. It doesn't make sense.

I mean, for every freedom. And all the opportunities you've got here. The only thing you have to say is thanks?

It just didn't seem like it was enough.

My parents and I had our first Thanksgiving dinner. In the little apartment in New York.

And we joined hands. And my father said a prayer to good food and our health.

And then something happened.

Instead of releasing our hands. We couldn't let go.

We kept holding on to each other, tighter and tighter. As we realized, we were together. And we were free.

Really free.

And here we were, three who don't even people, looking for a way, we could possibly show our appreciation.

And we couldn't.

Now, I know what it is.

It's thanks.

Good night.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: If you're watching it, you can see that he tears up at the end. There's no words to express thanks. And we have lost -- we have lost that.

The deep, deep gratitude for our lives. I have felt it overt last year. Unlike I've ever felt gratitude for my freedom. My safety. My family's safety.

Being born here. And now, especially after the election, you know, God -- miracles can happen in your life all the time. Just quote, chance encounters. Is it a chance encounter?

Or is that an answer to a prayer? Is that Divine Providence?

Miracles come, when there's really no other explanation. When something that just, you all have agreed that just can't happen. Happens.

Donald Trump, getting shot at. So close, that the camera picks the bullet up.

Speeding toward his head. And just before it goes into his head. He moves his head, in a way he never is it before.

And it clips his ear. Instead of going right into the temple.

That doesn't happen. That doesn't happen. To have a politician, or a guy, who is constantly beat on. Constantly smeared.

Had more investigations done on him, than I -- and I believe this to be true. I would love to see an actual study on this.

Somebody who had more investigations, more spies on him.

More -- you know, going through the trash and everything else.

More than anyone else in human history, by far! Because every spy agency, in the world, did that!

And then they went back and said, there's got to be something else!

For him to just continue to stand, and then when somebody tries to kill him, his first response is, stand up!

And then, for him not to be angry, but instead, to be humbled.

What are the odds there? For him to continue to go on, and, in fact, continue to stand.

Do you know -- his plane was targeted.

His plane was targeted.

We know that there are surface to air missiles. We know that he was going to be targeted by foreign entities, that are here.

For him to just get on his plane every time, the man knew he was risking his life.

For him to run the campaign, that he ran, in the last he eight months. You remember what it was like?

It was all, you know, they're after me.

And all of this stuff. Because they were after him. But did you notice, after the assassination attempt, when he could have said, instead, he had a much more uniting message.

And a happier message.

And a positive message.

And then for all of these people to building out of the woodwork. And start to say. You know what, this is evil.

I heard more talk from people who are not Christians!

More talk from people going, there is something seriously wrong.

And I think it's evil, what's going on.

America woke up. I've been doing this for 50 years. On the radio. Almost 50 years.

I've been -- I've been doing this, warning people for 24 years.

I didn't think you would wake up. Stu brought it up, you know, our theme is, you know, stand up.

We wrote that theme four years ago, because if you don't stand up, we're done.

And we put that on, and I tried to make that an encouraging thing to convince people, you've got to stand up right now. We're going to lose everything.

It's okay to stand up.

It's the only way. You stood up!

After 24 years of the same message, coming from me, in different ways! Where I had lost hope.

I mean, I said to you, all last year, we've got to find God!

We've got to -- we've got to be people, where God thinks, you know what, they're worth saving.

I said to you over and over again. I can come up with a million ways, this is going to go wrong. But there's on me one path for it to succeed.

And that is God.

And he showed up!

He showed up! He's not done with us.

He should be. Honestly, he should be. With everything that we do, for as -- for as big of a miracle as that is. I think a lot of people.

I mean, I heard it right after the election. Wow!

That was a miracle. And people meant it as a literal miracle.

That was a miracle. Yeah! It was.

Next week, will we even remember it, by next Thursday?

Or will we make the holiday that was built to humble ourselves and to thank God for our blessings.

Will we even remember the massive miracle?

Stu, would you agree, one of the miracles you've seen in your life for America.

I mean, that was a miracle. That that happened.

In the way that it did. All of a sudden, the messaging was right. All of the right things fell into place.

You know, for the first time ever, the G.O.P. was serious on their ground game.

I mean, all of these things that happened.

STU: I thought you were just referring to him turning his head.

GLENN: Yeah. And that. All of that.

From that moment on, all of that was a miracle.

Let's not forget that next week. He's not -- he's not done with us.

You know, I heard somebody say to me, on Election Day, I feel really good. I feel really good.

I'm cautious, but I feel really good. And here's why: Why would he recognizing the miracle of the assassination attempt. Why would he save Donald Trump, only to not save it now?

I couldn't think of a reason.

Other than, I don't understand the mind of God.

Think of this miracle.

If Donald Trump would have won in 2020. It would have been more of the first term.

We wouldn't get what we're about to get now.

We wouldn't get the reduction of the government. We wouldn't get possibly the closing down of some agencies, of cutting these agencies in half. We wouldn't have gotten those things.

We wouldn't have Elon Musk. We wouldn't have Vivek Ramaswamy.

We wouldn't have known. Remember, they didn't start cutting our children, until the Biden administration.

None of us had any idea about all this transgender stuff, because that and DEI, if you brought it up, it wasn't being done at least as openly.

But it was all set to go.

It wasn't being done, until Biden got in.

And then when we said, what the hell is all this?

They said, it was a conspiracy theory. And it took us three years, to go, no, it's not.

It's not a conspiracy theory, and it's deadly. It took us three years, before the doctors even started to turn.

It took COVID to wake people up. There is no bad!

There really -- my father used to say this to me. Glenn, there is no bad.

It's what do you do with the bad things that happen to you.

You can either wallow in. And say, oh, that was bad.

Or you can recognize, that sucked!

But what did I learn from it? What did I take?

How can I take that and turn that into a blessing?

COVID was a blessing in the end. Because it woke people up!

Tomorrow, I have some surgery, then I go on vacation.

It's not a big surgery. It's just, I have facial surgery, again.

Because I guess I'm out of room on my face, for more cancer. So they have to take some cancer off my face. So I can grow new cancer.

I don't know what -- this never ends.

But this is my last chance to talk to you before Thanksgiving.

And this is my last chance before Thanksgiving to sincerely thank the Lord for showing up, for sincerely blessing our country.

For showing me a miracle. Two. One that I saw in North Carolina where people were standing because God told them, come from across the country.

I know you don't know anybody.

I know you don't think you're going to be able to make a difference.

But just go.

And they got in their cars. And they drove across the country. And those people were put to work in ways, that I couldn't have served!

Maybe you couldn't have served. But they actually did it! And God worked a miracle. And then he worked this.

Please, even if it is just holding the hands around the table. Just for an extra minute, there is nothing that we can say to him.

More meaningful than just thank you.

Thank you, Lord, for an incredible experience.

Thank you for letting us live at this time, to be in your service. Thank you for waking us up.

Thank you for giving us the reason to stand. Happy Thanksgiving.
