THIS lawyer proves the FBI is FAR TOO FRIENDLY with Big Tech

Thanks to Elon Musk releasing the ‘Twitter Files,’ conservatives now know that everything we thought was once happening inside Twitter actually WAS happening…despite what the mainstream media once claimed. But this story actually gets even WORSE. In this clip, Glenn introduces you to James Baker. He’s a former FBI lawyer — and now a former Twitter lawyer — who demonstrates just how ASTOUNDING the revolving door between the FBI and Big Tech truly is…

STU: These are all the things that were under the ban of shadow bans, that they deny over and over.

GLENN: Yep. Yep. So it just goes on and on, but it is more of the same. Everything that we knew.

Now, this story, you would think can't get any worse. Right?

Well, if you remember back in June 23, 2022, there were a number of people that pointed out that Twitter was hiring an alarming number of FBI agents.

And this is something we pointed out in a special just recently, that all of them had doing this. The revolving door from the FBI to Amazon to Google to Zuckerberg's Facebook and to Twitter, is astounding. One of the guys who went to Twitter is James Baker.

Now, I'm thinking about an old poster, a propaganda poster from the Soviet Union. Vladimir Lenin stands in front of a giant red Soviet emblem with his right arm stretching forward, and the caption reads, to the bright future of communist society. Universal prosperity, and enduring peace.

The words to the bright future, would be -- would be used to -- by some, at the Politburo. Policy officials in the KGB, as an excuse, when they asserted their heavy hand on their people.

You don't like reporting nothing but propaganda and lies in the Soviet media? Don't worry. It's for your safety. To the bright future. You don't want your family going to the reeducation camp? To the bright future.

For others, all the others suffering under communist control. The phrase became a sort of coping mechanism.

Sure, this all sucks. But to the bright future.

Now, Soviets did that because the ends justify the means.

They had a plan. The bright future. And that -- that allowed them to justify anything.

We see this happening everywhere. Now, think about that, the next time you use a phone that was made by Huawei. Or you fire up TikTok.

The product you're using can be used to support Chinese national intelligence work. But it's not just Chinese/Russian. It is also Americans. The FBI is the political commissars. They admitted recently to holding regular meetings with all the big social meeting companies. They maintain, quote, relationships and met weekly.

Mark Zuckerberg gave a hint on a Joe Rogan podcast that some of the meetings contained information that would warn them against things like the Hunter Biden laptop.

Now, they knew it wasn't Russian propaganda. So why was the FBI feeding misinformation to social media companies? We know the FBI didn't want Donald Trump to become president. Because we saw that when an FBI lawyer was caught, falsifying evidence in order to get a FISA warrant, to spy on the Trump campaign, Carter Page. Nothing happened to him.

Speaking of FBI lawyers, it was the FBI's top lawyer James Baker that helped facilitate the meeting between the democratic operative, Michael Sussmann, and the FBI investigators, to look into the bogus Trump alpha bank smear. Okay?

That was the top FBI lawyer. James baker. He then left the FBI. And guess who hired him?

Twitter. Now, this is before Elon Musk. Now, we know from the Twitter file disclosure, that James Baker now Twitter's top lawyer, helped suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story. So he went from the FBI, to Twitter. To help shape all of the news, that you would get off of Twitter. But wait. There's more.

When Musk tried to release the files showing how Twitter suppressed the story. Baker intercepted the evidence, to vet what was about to be released.

We're talking realtime here, gang. Was it to take out the parts that showed the FBI was involved? Musk this week, was not mused. And fired James baker. But don't be surprised if he goes right back to the FBI or to Facebook or to Google or to Amazon.

The Twitter files show how outside political actors usually from the left, have a far too friendly relationship with big tech. And these companies are all too willing to do their bidding.

We knew all of this already. It was obvious. But it is truly remarkable to see in their own emails.

Because it leads one to ask the question, what is the difference between China and the Soviet Union and us?

Here's the bad news, the people in the Soviet Union, and China, had this kind of behavior forced on them. Today, Silicon Valley and the media, do it voluntary, for the bright future.

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!

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

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.
