Can Trump stop Russia from going to WAR with Biden?

Will Vladimir Putin and Russia respond after President Biden crossed yet another one of Russia’s red lines? Rep. Cory Mills joins Glenn to discuss what may happen next after Biden allowed Ukraine to fire American long-range missiles into Russia; He tells Glenn why World War III might not be as likely as it looks, thanks to Donald Trump. Will Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Putin act differently because they know Trump’s coming back soon? Rep. Mills also comments on why the Biden regime appears to be leading us toward war. Do they really want to sabotage Trump so badly that they’re willing to risk nuclear war?

Vladimir Zelinsky used our long-range missiles, to attack Russia. Yesterday.

You know, it's something that Vladimir Putin said, would be a red line. On Monday, what happened.

On Monday, we said, when I say we. Whoever is president of the United States. Let's just use air quotes and say, Joe Biden.

Told Ukraine that they could use those long range missiles, again. Vladimir Putin said, red line.

In fact, they had something that they had proposed in September. But they -- they stamped it, and signed it, on Tuesday.

In response to our announcement on Monday.

The doctrine now says, an attack from a nonnuclear state, if backed by a nuclear power, that would be us.

Will be treated as a joint assault on Russia!

Oh, that is -- oh, that's great.

So what is Putin going to do?

We don't have any idea. But I -- then again, I don't have any idea, why we would have done this, in the first place.

Cory Mills joins us, the congressman from Florida.

Hello, Cory, how are you?

CORY: Glenn, how are you?

GLENN: So how disturbed are you by what's happening?

CORY: Well, extremely concerned. Look for four years, Ukraine has been asking for long range capabilities. Have been asking to be able to hit within the outline areas inside of Russia. And trying to prevent continual assault. And it was denied, denied, denied.

And here we go, as we're getting into president Trump's administration as his presidency. He's continued to try to spiral things further out of control, and escalate them to another degree.

Benefit we have, however, is that we have an exceptionally strong president coming in.

And every one of the world leaders knows that President Trump does not suffer fools.

And that he does not have the weakness which invites aggression.

GLENN: Correct.

CORY: So I think that even with all this taking place. I think that both Putin and Zelinsky understand. President Trump coming in is not necessarily saying, it's okay for you guys to continue this back and forth. It's okay to continue the events that's occurring.

He's going to come with an actual solution. And say, what kind of sanctioning, what kind of imposement? Because, remember, it was President Trump who actually removed America from the INF treaty, which had been violated by Russia time and time again.

It was President Trump who removed us from JCPLA.

It was President Trump who enforced one of our adversaries, China, to actually buy billions of dollars in agricultural goods or face tariffs.

And it was President Trump who secured our borders remain in Mexico. Secured it by trying to build the wall.

People know this. They're taking notice. But it's disturbing to me, that President Biden is doing everything he can to leave President Trump with the biggest mess possible to stop him from actually getting on to the America first agenda.

GLENN: It also strikes me as the Deep State going in to survival mode.

CORY: Yeah. Well, it's the Deep State going into survival mode.

You add the nanny state. Who continues to want to keep the corruption. The power.

You know, just like you, Glenn.

Those absolutists.

I believe in completely eliminating a large amount of departments and agencies. Throughout DC. And returning those powers throughout the United States.

I believe that, again, we can harp on Woodrow Wilson's 17th amendment in 1913.

The power resides with the people. The power resides with the independent state.

And this is what the federal government. And this is what all these bureaucrats. These unelected bureaucrats who think they're lawmakers, want to hold on to.

So they will create as much chaos as possible. Whether it be through a pandemic. Whether it be through global warfare, whether it through regional destabilization. In an effort to try to maintain their power, so that it doesn't move away.

GLENN: So the president cannot -- the president-elect cannot call Putin or Zelinsky, and say, knock it off.

I'm 61 days. Or 62 days away from the president.

And you don't want to screw with me. Knock it off right now! He can't make that call, can he?

Legally.

CORY: He can actually to some extent. Look, we have a good friend of mine, Mike Waltz who was just appointed as national security adviser. I talked to him yesterday.

And there's a tremendous amount of world leaders who are calling to congratulate the president.

And the president can simply say, listen. As you know. I'm coming in, in 61 days.

I would ask that we go ahead and deescalate things now, before we come in and start thinking of a solution to work together. So we've already seen where Hamas, the minute that President Trump was elected. Asked for a cease-fire. I mean, you saw where Russia was starting to stop its continuation and now obviously, Biden has continued to ramp that back up.

So he can also do more to feed the defense military-industrial complex. Which you will need as future donors and future paychecks.

But, yeah. President Trump absolutely is already in talks with world leaders. And his national security adviser, Tulsi, the Director of National Intelligence. And everyone is very much in the know on this.

What was shocking, however, Glenn.

And this should be shocking for viewers as well.

During the transition, you're supposed to be transparent with the incoming administration.

And Michael Waltz, the National Security Adviser, wasn't even briefed that the actual long-range missiles had been approved by Biden and Jake Sullivan.

GLENN: I -- this is -- I mean, this is madness. I've never seen anything like this before.

Ever!

I mean, you just don't --

CORY: It's unprecedented. Look at FEMA. Look at all the weaponization. Look at what they've done to our economy. Look at what they've done to our open borders. Look at the 300,000+ children who have gone missing, who are being trafficked into the country.

Look at -- how FEMA has been weaponized and not helped those. If you have a Trump sign. As good practice.

I mean, look at what's happened with China's aggression, ramping up in the Taiwan Sea. Look at Paycom stress. Look at Russia and China.

Look at Iran's continual aggression with the October 7th incident on Israel.

Look at Hezbollah in Iraq, and how they're starting to ramp up.

Look, the list goes on and on, with how the world is being set on fire with this administration.

GLENN: So what do you expect Putin to do? Two days ago. Yeah. No. Yeah, two days ago, they said that it could be a nuclear strike.

I don't think they're going to do that. But it could be a nuclear strike.

And it would be war between us and that NATO ally.

That is supplying all of these things. That's us.

How does he continue to back down on his red lines without losing his position and credibility in his own country?

CORY: Well, I think it's a bit of saber rattling. And I think he knows things will change in the next 61 days. I think right now, he's trying to get Biden and everyone to be on notice. To say, this is enough. You're not going to be able to do this, and actually approve threats on to our nation. But we missed the boat a long time ago.

If you backed up to 1994, when we find the original Budapest memorandum, it was us, the Federation of Russia, Ukraine, and UK Northern Ireland.

That was recognizing Ukraine's independent sovereignty, and their borders as a nuclear nonproliferation agreement.

The minute that was violated in 2014. Oh, wait. That was under Obama and Biden.

The minute that was actually done. They should have levied that treaty.

Regardless if it has teeth on it or not, you could have brought that to the international committees, but they didn't.

And they allowed to continue on, until it was actually President Trump who came forward and said, the only way to stop this isn't by giving bandaids and by giving food. It's by allowing to have defense articles to be supplied to Ukraine for its own defense. And when that was approved. Russia then stood at bay, and Donetsk, and Lagonsk, and Mariopol (all phonetic). Now, fast forward foreword to when President Biden comes to his office, Russia immediately starts their invasion. Because they knew that nothing was going to happen. Because the precedent has been set.

So I think there's saber rattling that's going on by Vladimir Putin.

I think that's necessary. I wouldn't be surprised if he does have some type of a midrange, long-range missile strike. Increase in artillery. Things like that, are already hard impact to the area.

I think he understands that 51 days, there's a new boss in town.

Debunking Progressive MYTHS About Christianity | Eric Metaxas | The Glenn Beck Podcast | Ep 236

“The liberals hate my guts because I told the truth about Bonhoeffer,” says Eric Metaxas, author of “Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy.” He joined "The Glenn Beck Podcast" to spread the word about Angel Studios' latest film about the German pastor turned coconspirator in a plot to assassinate Hitler. It's a movie, he says, "Jew-hating lunatics" will love to hate, which is why anti-Semites get free tickets. Eric makes the case that Trump is, in fact, not Hitler and explains why Christians should live out their faith in the public square without fear of being called “Christian Nationalists.” Theocracy, Eric says, is “anti-Christian,” but, like in Nazi Germany, there does come a time when the church should oppose a tyrannical state. Church attendance is down, but Eric suggests that just may be a good thing and that perhaps it’s time to consider Bonhoeffer's proposition of “religionless Christianity.” In the end, both Glenn and Eric agree that there is a "warrior side of Jesus,” and “God knows your theology by how you live.”

EXPOSED: The DANGEROUS FAA policy that could lead to a DISASTER

The Federal Aviation Administration is out of control and ‪@BlazeTV‬ sent Stu Burguiere of ‪@studoesamerica‬ to investigate. What he found is absolutely shocking! Stu tells Glenn just how far down the woke DEI rabbit hole the FAA has gone. Apparently, even if you ace the merit-based Air Traffic Controller test, it doesn't matter. You have to pass the biographical exam as well, which PENALIZES you if you did WELL in high school science classes. Why? Because according to them, that makes you less likely to be a minority. This puts EVERYONE who rides in an airplane in danger, Glenn says. The whole story is exposed in the newest Blaze Originals documentary, "Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster."

Watch the documentary NOW at http://BlazeOriginals.com/Glenn

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: So the Blaze original has a new doc out perfect for Thanksgiving. Countdown to the next aviation disaster. Before you go get on a plane and see -- well, maybe after you get back home, maybe.

The FAA is completely out of control. Completely out of control.

And we put Stu in a plane and have him fly over the country, to talk --

STU: Hmm. Yeah.

GLENN: To talk to the FAA and others that are fighting against what they're doing. Because there is a major disaster that is right around the corner because of DEI.

STU: How many near-misses? We document a ton of them.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. Do you show the video of them?

STU: Yeah. The video. The footage of --

GLENN: Planes just -- and also, the planes, they're -- there's video of planes that are landing. This just happened to me!

Oh, my gosh. I completely forgot about this.

STU: Really?

GLENN: This just happened to me. I was landing in maybe Fort Myers. We were handing in Fort Myers. And we were coming down. And we were maybe 100 feet from the runway. You know, from land. All of a sudden, we just rocketed up because they put another plane on that runway, right in front of us.

STU: Oh, my God.

GLENN: And it's like, what are you doing?

STU: And this is happening all over the country.

GLENN: All the time. All the time.

STU: And, you know, there's a bunch of different reasons for it. We go through them in the documentary. Which is available, I guess to stream now. BlazeTV.com.

But what's fascinating about it, you know, there's also the whole aspect of DEI.

And how the people who are -- you know, not only overworked. These air traffic controllers.

They're totally understaffed. Overworked.

Also one of the reasons why this all happened. They just stopped blocking white males from getting these jobs.

GLENN: Right.

STU: We go through that whole process.

People who are suing the government now.

To get this all overturned. They caught them though.

This is not questionable. I'll go through all the evidence in the documentary.

It's shocking.

GLENN: Let me ask you something. Would you want a doctor, who was white, if the best doctor was black? Or Asian?

STU: Of course not.

GLENN: Of course not. No one would.

STU: No.

GLENN: Why would you say, oh, on this airplane, or in the seat that decides when and what runway that airplane lands or its course, why would you not want the best person?

It is a matter of life and death. This DEI stuff is -- it is -- it's death. It should be DIE, because it's all about death. In the end, that's what happens when you have unqualified people, building bridges, flying planes, being your -- your eyes in the sky.

That's what happens!

STU: I talked to a guy in the documentary, who took the merit-based test to become an air traffic controller, and got a 100 on it.

A perfect score. Perfect score.

Then they added another test called -- it was called the biographical exam.

GLENN: Really?

STU: Yes.

And it had really weird questions. We go through the test.

Like, something like -- did you perform well in science, in high school?

And you think, all right. Well, I can kind of see why they would ask that question. Right? If you have a scientific mind. Maybe you have an analytical mind.

GLENN: But I bet you they'll score you lower, if you did better in high school.

STU: You know these people too well, Glenn. If you say, yes, you did well in science and high school, you get penalized. To them -- and I think this is a racist assumption. But to them, you're less likely to be a minority if you did well in science and high school.

So you get punished for doing well, in a -- in a subject that obviously would relate to what you're doing.

GLENN: Can you imagine?

Can you imagine if the question was, did you do well at basketball, when you were in high school?

STU: Right.

GLENN: Are you good at tap dancing? Can you imagine.

STU: At least. It would be a positive attribute. And not a negative one.

But, yes. It would be insane.

GLENN: You would immediately say. You're good at tap dancing. You're in drama. Maybe you're gay.

Tap dancing. I don't know. Stereotypical black, you know, I mean from the 1940s.

STU: Right.

GLENN: But you would go, what does that question mean?

Why is that being asked? You did well in basketball. Why is that question being asked?

STU: Right. Uh-huh.

GLENN: This is just -- that's blatant racism.

This is subtle racism, unless you know you get downgraded by saying, yes. I was good at science.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Because normally, you would be like, yeah.

STU: Of course, this is unfair to let's say a white male who is good at science.

You know who else it's unfair to? A black female who was good at science. Right? They were actually punishing people who had good performance in school.

So that they couldn't get these jobs. So this guy, who went through this entire process, wasted years of his life.

Winds up, not getting the job. And now assuming the government, thankfully to expose. That's how they've exposed all of this. We go through all of this in the documentary.

It is called, what is it? Countdown to the next --

GLENN: To the next disaster.

STU: Aviation disaster. Here it is. Countdown to the next aviation disaster. It's available at BlazeOriginals.com/Stu. If you use the code DEI, you'll save 30 bucks on your annual subscription --

GLENN: And you know what is actually really good about this. This is, this is the end of it! This is hopefully the end of it.

Now, they have done everything they can, to bury DEI deeply into all of our agencies. So you can't cut it out.

But it's got to go!

It absolutely -- we have to be merit-based.

I don't want to drive on a bridge, that didn't have the best engineers.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Okay?

You know why the doors are blowing off Boeing planes, and wheels are coming off?

Because they got rid of all of the engineers. Hello. It's life and death.

Gosh, what are we even thinking?

You know who is really going to be -- are you a computer? Are you AI?

Can you put this little puzzle together. So I know you're not a computer. Okay?

Would you do that, if AI, who is now outperforming doctors on cancer tests.

Would you be like, I don't want my human doctor to not have a job.

So I don't care!

My doctor says, I don't have cancer. AI says I do have cancer.

STU: I'm not going to test. I believe the doctor.

GLENN: Right.

STU: Jobs.

GLENN: Because of jobs.

You would never do that. Your life is at stake.

STU: You want the best results. It seems obvious. And it's obviously central to what made America great in the first place.

GLENN: I know. Yes. Yes.

STU: Right? We cared about merit.

And we are going away from that.

Trump, RFK Jr. Put Health Agencies on NOTICE: Mandate to Fix America Part 2 | Ep 396

The resistance from the political and media establishments over Trump’s Cabinet picks has been insane. They’ve smeared Tulsi Gabbard as a Russian asset and Pete Hegseth as a dangerous Christian nationalist with tattoos. A "hacker" (who is definitely not a DOJ leaker) is trying to take down Matt Gaetz. And no one is more terrified of RFK Jr. leading the Department of Health and Human Services than Big Pharma and Big Media. One of the major subtexts of this election was anger over COVID-19 and how it wrecked trust in government. The pandemic showed us just how broken and politicized our federal health care institutions have become through their harmful policies, dishonesty, and censorship. In part 2 of this Glenn TV miniseries that examines the cancer infesting our nation and the mandate to excise this deep-state rot, Glenn exposes powerful agencies like the CDC, FDA, and NIH. Trump has put these health agencies under the microscope, and they will not like their treatment plan.

Laken Riley trial PROVES Americans are DONE With Open Border LIES

The illegal immigrant who murdered Laken Riley has been found guilty on all counts. It was an emotional moment for many, including Glenn, who is sick and tired of justice being subverted by the current regime. Not only did the Biden administration catch and release this murderer. It gave him a free flight to Georgia, which ended up costing Laken her life. “We’re not going to take it anymore,” Glenn declares. “Justice is BACK.” But it shouldn’t stop there. Glenn reviews some other stories that Americans must not put up with anymore, including how a paper shredding truck was spotted outside the DOJ.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. So yesterday, the judge found -- found Laken Riley's murderer guilty on all charges. Now, listen to this.

But I want you to listen to this, and notice your reaction to it. Maybe it's just me. I don't know.

But listen to this. And notice can't reaction to it, go ahead.

VOICE: One count of murder, found the defendant guilty. Count two, felony murder, I found the defendant guilty. Count three felony murder, I found the defendant guilty. Count four, felony murder, I found the defendant guilty.

Count five, kidnapping with bodily injury. I find the defendant guilty.

Count six, aggravated assault and attempt to rape. I find the defendant guilty.

Count seven, aggravated battery, I find the defendant guilty.

Count eight, obstructing or hindering a 911 call. I find the defendant guilty.

Count nine, tampering with evidence, I find the defendant guilty.

Count ten, peeping Tom, I find the defendant guilty.

GLENN: What are you feeling? It could just be me. What are you feeling?

STU: What am I feeling? Am I hearing that? I mean, I'm happy that justice is at some level hitting this guy. But more anger of how unnecessary it was.

The fact that on a free flight to go to Georgia in the first place.

GLENN: Yeah. I know. The Biden administration put him on one of those ghost flights in the middle of the night. So he could live in Georgia. Yeah.

STU: It cost this poor woman her life.

And, you know, she's just one prominent example. This story has been told way too many times.

GLENN: Here's what I feel.

First emotional because you can hear the parents gasp and cry in the back.

And happy for them, sad at the waste. But also, we are not going to take it any more!

Justice is back. That makes me feel good. All this bullcrap of, oh, these poor immigrants that have come in. They're not all bad. This guy was in the Venezuelan gang. And so was his brother. And you know how he tried to get off? He said, it was my brother, not me. No, it wasn't me. It was my brother.

STU: It was basically, you know, a version of the O.J. defense. DNA can't really tell between me and my brother.

GLENN: My brother, right.

And the reason why they had DNA because it was under her fingernails, as she scraped his arms, his face, and his back. And they had pictures of the claw marks that she left on him.

So justice is served.

Now, here's the other thing: He's not going to get the death penalty. Maybe life in prison. No chance of parole. But I don't trust that stuff. He's not going to get the death penalty. Why? Because a prosecutor, who is a Soros prosecutor said, that's not real justice.

Now, they're talking about reversing that. This new prosecutor. Because I don't know if you know this. That prosecutor lost, I think by 17 points.

It's over!

It's over. Now, there are some states now, that are saying, you know what, this drives me out of my mind. These people are so lacked of any kind of principles.

They change with the wind. There are no principles.

Just a few -- what? A month ago. Two months ago. All of the cities. All of the people in the cities. From San Francisco, to New York.

Were saying, this is going to collapse our city. We can't handle all of these people that have come across the border. Where -- they were sending them to Texas.

New York was taking people and sending them from New York, to Texas. Because they just couldn't handle it. Like Texas could.

Okay.

Now they're all -- they've all changed overnight.

Now, oh. We're going to protect these people. How dare the big, bad government come in and try to take.

We're just going to cuddle these people.

It's over, gang. It's over. And I hope, that the president finds the constitutionally legal way to cut you off from every funding.

You want to play that game?

Fine. Then your city doesn't get any federal dollars. You want tolerance that. That's fine.

Because you're costing all of us, you're costing us money.

Because you're going to ask for a federal bailout.

And the other part of that should be, you're not getting one.

California, you want to play this game. We're not going to pay for it.

I love California.

I think California is the most beautiful state in the -- in the union. I've always -- since a kid, I've always wanted to live in California.

The reason why I don't, is because they're insane!

They're insane!

I don't want to live with the insanity.

And I know that I'll be impoverished in the end by it. And so will all of my neighbors.

I don't want to live in that!

So I don't live in California, because you want correct California. I live in Texas.

Because I would like to be -- have California more like Texas.

But it's not.

So I live in Texas.

Because I know the state won't impoverish me. I know the state won't take all of my rights away from -- I know they won't coddle criminals. So I live in Texas. Don't you dare come for a handout from me.

You made your bed. You pay for it. And if you want to keep criminals in your state, if you want to coddle those people, that's totally fine with me.

But I honestly believe maybe we should check your passports, when you come across the border of California and New York.

Are you here legally?

Because if they leave those states, they should be arrested and deported.

And I don't want any of them moving into my city or my state. Pragmatism, but they're going to eventually. And your people eventually will move to my state.

And they will vote for the same damn things. Because they're too stupid to understand what caused their state to become like that. I've got to get to Florida.

Oh. Why are there no progressives we can vote for?

Because you haven't wrecked it yet.

STU: I think too.

I know you say this. You want to deal with these people, fine.

In reality, of course, I know.

GLENN: We have to.

STU: It is a federal issue.

This was the left that prevented states like Arizona from implementing and enforcing immigration law. Because this has to be done at the federal level.

Well, hopefully Trump is about to show you, what that looks like. And it should be done at the federal level.

So he will -- I think overrule and overrun some of these people who are trying to avoid the law, in their local jurisdictions. And he should do that.

You know, Glenn, one of the most frustrating things about the Laken Riley.

We talk about the borders being open.

People flowing over all the time.

That is awful.

Obviously, borders are till to protect completely.

People are going to get across it, at some level.

But we caught this guy. This isn't an example of a guy sneaked across the border.

Then released you him into the country.

He got arrested multiple more times while he was here.

We still give him a free flight.

We still put him up in the Roosevelt hotel. With free lodging.

Then we sent him to Georgia with a free flight.

He got arrested there with his brother. We still kept releasing him. And then, after all of that, he murdered this poor woman.

It's -- it's not even a case where like, okay. This is difficult. I get that. That can happen.

GLENN: This one is not.

STU: This is not what that is. And it happens over and over and over again.

God, if we could just stop some of those.

Talking about standing up. They could at least stop some of those.

GLENN: We are going to. We are going to.

That's what we voted for. We voted for an end of all of this.

By the way, have you heard that the DOJ has just put a paper shredder truck outside of the FBI office.

I swear to you, if they shred anything that we need. And they're like, we lost it. We shredded it. We don't know what happened to it.

Put them in jail. Don't fire them.

Put them in jail. It is time that we say to this government, enough is enough.

We're going to live by the laws of the land.

And that includes all of this red tape bullcrap.

All of it!

You want that law? Pass it through Congress. Not through some bureaucrat. That we don't even know who they are. We never voted for them.

Why do they rule over our life?

By the way, the House ethics committee has decided not to release the Gaetz investigation. Okay. At least temporarily, they're not sure. Because it's not finished. Now, the DOJ finished it, over two years ago.

Okay? This has got to stop. I don't know if Matt Gaetz is guilty or innocent of what they accuse him of. I have no idea. But just like Brett Kavanaugh, this smearing of people, has got to stop!

If he's guilty, charge him.

Make sure he has a fair trial.

And let the chips fall where they may.

But they won't charge!

They're not charging. Because they know that the people who are including the women, they know that they are not trustworthy.

The DOJ -- this is the guy. The biggest opponent of the DOJ. He's got real teeth on the DOJ.

So all of a sudden, the DOJ finds these accusations. Okay. All right.

Maybe he did them.

Then investigate.

And if you don't have enough to charge him.

Then you shut your mouth.

Now, you might continue to investigate. But you shut your mouth.

When you have enough to charge, then charge!

We're not a country that should allow for another take, the smearing of individuals based on stuff that is not chargeable.

They've made this guy practically into a pedophile!

What? What? What did -- where do you go to get your reputation back?

Because if they can do it to him. They'll do it to you.

Now, he may not be -- I don't think he's a saint. I think he's a long way away from a saint.

But I don't know who to believe.

That's for a area to decide. But once somebody is charged.

Not investigated.

Charged! If this -- the Democrats or some of the sleazy Republicans decide to release this, all of those people should either be impeached, or we should primary them.

Because this kind of stuff has got to stop!

Does it mean we let some bad guys get away?

Yes!

But wouldn't you rather have one bad guy get away, than one good person, get smeared. And their life destroyed?

That is justice!
