Is THIS why Hamas choose WAR with Israel NOW?

How did Israeli intelligence miss an attack of this scale that Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah had allegedly been planning for the past year? What is coming next as Israel moves to possibly eliminate Hamas once and for all? And why did Israel's enemies choose NOW to attack? Glenn speaks with "The Terminal List" author and former Navy SEAL Jack Carr, who believes the timing is no coincidence, especially since the U.S. was pushing to influence Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel. Plus, he and Glenn discuss how the United States should respond to the war.

GLENN: All right. Jack Carr is the New York Times number one best-selling author. He is the author of the Terminal List series. He's also a former Navy SEAL, and he's been digging into Israel and Hamas, researching a book that is coming out next year.

And so I wanted to give him a chance to maybe share some of the things that he's learned to give us some perspective on why now, what -- what is it this mean?

If Iran is involved, does that mean Russia is involved. What are we headed for?

Welcome, Jack. How are you?

JACK: Well, it's great to be here. How raw, sir?

GLENN: I'm very good. I'm very good. I'm not even an enlisted man. So I'm certainly not served.

So, Jack, the -- Israel thought -- they were duped. They thought that Hamas had been tamed some. They cared about, you know, making money, and taking care of their people.

And Hamas did a really good job. In reading some of the articles that are out now. Did a really good job of duping them into this.

But Iran seems to be involved, even though our president says, there's no evidence of that.

Is there any evidence?

I mean, that makes total sense. And what does that mean?

JACK: Oh, yes. There's a lot to unpack.

But really, the Israel that Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran was dealing with last week, that's a different Israel than they're dealing with today most certainly. And we talked about being duped into something that was really a form of quasi-tolerance. Meaning Israel had tolerated a certain level of violence from Hamas, and they thought they could contain Hamas. They could live with that certain type of violence. They thought Hamas was tolerable, containable in Gaza. Not today.

That has all changed over the weekend. But also violence perpetrated on Israel, is something they have never seen before at this -- in these numbers, grandmothers, children. Women. Killed, raped, tortured. And a friend in Israel, who is with the operation forces there, has been texting me throughout the weekend and the last couple of days here. And he said, what we're seeing in these videos that are coming out, is not even the half of it. It's so much worse than what they're seeing. And they're in the thick of it now.

GLENN: So you look at some of these things, and you see that 900 Israelis died. Some of them were Americans.

They died. In horrific ways. It was an execution squad, really. And a kidnapping squad. As we -- we watch these things, we have to understand, the -- the population is only 9 million people. Over in Israel.

So that's like casualties of 30,000 people being tortured and raped and killed here in America. This is a huge impact.

However, the -- the way Israel usually deals with it. I think what people don't understand is that it has changed. Normally, they will go and then as soon as they respond, then the world starts to say, oh, you've got to stop the killing. This is horrible.

I don't think Israel is going to stop this time.

JACK: I don't think so either. And for the last decade, they've had the same kind of policies towards Gaza, that have been remaining in effect. It has been semi-working. But I think that they're going to look at those policies, realize those policies were a failure. All they did was to set up Hamas to do what they did over the weekend. And, of course, there's a few wild cards in there as well. Hezbollah in the north.

There's something between 100,000. 150,000 rockets pointed right at Israel. If that was acceptable last week. I don't just that was acceptable for much longer.

Because soon that becomes 200,000 rockets. 250,000 rockets. 300,000 rockets. Eventually buying time, where there are enough forces to really do some damage in Israel. So I think things have shifted across-the-board. And Hamas will look at this as their most successful operation in history.

But, I mean, what this has been, an opportunity, is a horrible word to use here. But that's really what it is for Israel, to hit Hamas so hard, it will take them texting to recover. And I don't think you can eliminate them totally as we saw in Iraq and Afghanistan over 20 years, of trying to get with different factions over there, in those two areas.

They can certainly set them back decades.

GLENN: So this is really -- if you look at some of the videos. They were beheading people. One with a garden hoe. This is the same kind of stuff we had from ISIS. What is the difference between those two, if there is any. And where is the connection to Iran?

JACK: Difference is where they came from. We talked about terroristic tactics. What that means, that's focusing on civilian targets. Not focusing on military targets. That's really what differentiates us from our enemy. And why it's so important for us to maintain that high ground. But the question is: Why now?

Hamas, and, really, by proxy Iran and possibly Russia, chose the time and the place of this engagement. So that's the question geopolitically. Why right now?

And the question is, because Israel is so divided, they have issues with their judicial and executive branch. And so they're divided probably like never before. US is very weak. The world, Hamas, Israel, or Iran, Russia, saw our withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Saw the billions of dollars towards Ukraine. See the division here. See our leaders in the White House.

So there's a lot of things on the table with just those things.

And then we have the Israel, Saudi Arabia, just on the brink of essentially like a trilateral type of agreement, that deals with oil, increasing production, decreasing price, and a defense pact. I

You know, I think that's what it really is. I think that's what it is on the surface. I have no insider information here.

Is that it includes defense by nuclear weapons. So it would make -- possibly make Saudi Arabia the first nuclear power, in the Middle East, aside from Israel who doesn't talk about that sort of a thing.

Because on the other side, you have Iran, Russia, and China. And China is Iran's largest trading partner.

Two years ago, they signed a 25-year strategic partnership. So it is in China's interests, and Russia's interests to have Iran as the dominant nuclear power in the region.

So there's -- those are the two sides right there. US, Israel, Saudi Arabia. Iran, Russia, China. But I think what this does. What this Hamas incursion does really, is just delay possibly this agreement. I think it's going to happen. It just delays it. We'll see how long.

GLENN: Where would they be getting the nukes?

JACK: From -- well, from the United States. Yeah. So -- and after I talked about this last night, on a news hit, and someone sent me an article from the times of Israel, in which Netanyahu, actually says that that's a possibility on the table. I didn't know that before.

But so that was kind of nice to see that last night after I came off the air. But really, nuclear supremacy in the United States is what's on the table here.

GLENN: So we don't have a good relationship currently with the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Or do we?

JACK: I think it's -- it is -- you never know what you're looking at from the outside. But what's drastically and logically what's happening behind closed doors there. Is that US, Israel, Saudi Arabia are going to lead the way with this trilateral agreement to really change the -- the nature of the Middle East going forward.

So that's -- that's on the table. And, of course, Iran doesn't want that. Of course, Russia doesn't want that. Of course, China doesn't want that.

STU: So if Iran was behind this. Is Russia?

JACK: And really manipulate them to get what you want, at the -- at the larger, more established power. So you can almost -- I was going to say, you almost feel sorry, that they're manipulated like that. But that's the way of the world.

GLENN: So, Jack, as I've been thinking about this. I mean, Israel is one of our strongest allies. One of our best allies. They're the most like us in the Middle East for sure, and the only ones that I think, you know, would fight on the right side. The other side is Barbaric and evil, I think. And, you know, I hate to abandon Israel. But I also hate to get roped into a war with Russia and Iran, and possibly do the things they want us to do.

Because I think -- and you would know better than I. I think they're doing to us, what we did to the former Soviet Union. We're bankrupt them. We're dividing them from the inside. We're roping them into wars.

And everybody knows we're on the brink of -- of destruction here. What should we do to help the Israelis?

Because I also feel strongly, we need to help them.
JACK: Right. And I don't think the -- I agree with your assessment. But the division seems to be coming. It doesn't take too much to divide us. A little prod here. A little comment there.

But we're pretty good at dividing ourselves from the inside, which is absolutely heartbreaking.

Obviously at the end of World War II, we surprised the world by saying we were going to essentially defend trade routes around the world, that was going to be a benefit for all countries, coming out of the Second World War, and we just moved to carry a battle group, to send a very strong issue to Iran.

So our administration says, that there's no evidence linking Iran to the attacks. We did move a carrier to send a pretty clear message to Iran and in support of Israel. So that's something right there.

But we do move traps around the world, quite frankly. Obviously from the end of World War II, up to today, is the major way we project our strength. And really keep the world safe. And protect trade. Has worked up to this point. But now we're kind of retreating from that.

We don't have as many ships as we used to have. China is obviously building up their Navy. So things are shifting geopolitically in the world, as far as the military powers go. No doubt about that.

How long will that take? Not exactly sure. But there is a shift going on. What else can we do to support Israel?

I'm not sure they need much from us. Meaning we put a carrier battle group right there, if things do escalate, and Hezbollah does more in the North.

And something spills over into Iran. And then perhaps. But gloves are off right now.

Israel restraint is out the window.

They have restrained themselves over the last at least decade, towards Hamas. Maybe towards Hezbollah.

Ever strange now, completely out the window.

And Hamas has really thought that other insurgent groups, thought of Israel as an occupying nation, a colonial nation for lack of a better term. And they looked to the past, to the French Nazi area. They looked to the British in Kenya or India.

But the difference is, and for some reason, Hamas and other groups don't recognize this.

The French has France to go back to.

The British had Britain to go back to. Israel doesn't have anywhere to go. They're going to stand and fight. They have no other choice

NAFTA, their president. President Herzog, he addressed the nation in the weeks of the attacks. Concluded his remarks with something along the lines of, this time the state of Israel will win. We have no other choice.

GLENN: Okay.

Jack, I want to take you one more place. Hang on for 60 seconds.

And then I want to talk to you about our readiness as a nation.

In Land O' Lakes Florida, Tunnel2Towers Foundation is building a community called the Let Us Do Good Village, which will have about 100 homes for the program participants.

Now, there are already two families that moved in, a gold star family, and a severely injured hero who served our nation, and more will come.

This is a special place where families will be able to come together and heal. It's a place where their children can grow up and experience life together, and it's all thanks to an amazing donation for the land on which it sits.

Of course, it's also thanks to your generosity. The Let Us Do Good Village.

It can be the first of many communities all over the country like it, that this is your opportunity to help America's greatest heroes and their families heal together and grow together.

With every mortgage-free home. The foundation makes good on its promise to do good. And a never forget the sacrifices you're heroes have made for our country and our communities. Donate $11 a month, at Tunnel2Towers, T2T.org. That's T2T.org.

So the White House, we're talking to Jack Carr, said the president will struggle to help Israel replenish stockpiles of ammunition, as it gears up for full-scale war against the Iranian-backed terrorists in the back region.

The congressional official told the Wall Street Journal that they expect Israel to request advanced US-produced GBU 39 small diameter bombs.
Small arms. Ammunition. And 122-millimeter tank rounds, mortars, and more.

The officials said, being able to supply Israel with enough to mere interceptors to replenish their Iron Dome was most worrisome. And the biggest problem the administration will face.

How -- how -- how prepared are we, or are we just giving everything away?

JACK: Yeah. That's a great question. And one that our enemies are certainly asking. And certainly watching. They're seeing untold billions go to Ukraine, along with arms. And in other places around the world, of course, as well. Which begs the question: Well, how able are we to defend ourselves in a one-front war? A two-front war? A three-front?

And the answer to that, if you're looking from the outside, is we're probably not as prepared as a decade ago, two decades ago, even three, when we really draw down -- drew down at the end of the Cold War.

So the other side of this though, is that we have experience as a tactical level. We bring it at the strategic level. We have to be so adept with the senior level military leaders and politicians, even bureaucrats. But at the tactical level.

We have the most experienced force that we have ever had. Because that tactical level. Those E2s, E3s, E4s, E5s, E6s, E7s. Those officers who are now majors and lieutenant colonels.

They were once brand-new officers in '01, '02, '03, fighting in Iraq, fighting in Afghanistan. And they're coming up the ranks. They don't have as much to work with. But they have experience. So that's what we have. And that's something we need to capitalize on.

But experience without some of those tools. It makes things a little more difficult. So it's certainly something that we need to be aware of, that the next administration, needs to be aware of.

And if you want to capitalize on this experience, not let it go to waste. You want to turn those lessons we've turned in the last 20 years into wisdom, going forward.

Well, now we need to equip those soldiers, sailors, Marines. That have the experience. Sacrifice so much. With the tools they need to defend the nation.

GLENN: Jack Carr. Thank you so much.

When does your new book come out?

JACK: Next May. It's on the books right now. But my first non-fiction which actually has the Hezbollah connection. It's called Targeted.

My first non-fiction. 1983. Marine Barracks bombing.

GLENN: Wow.

JACK: It's coming out next fall.

So two books in the works for 2024.

GLENN: Great. Thank you, Jack. I appreciate it.
JACK: Thanks so much, take care.

GLENN: You bet. Jack Carr.

Are Antidepressants (SSRI's) Worsening America's Mental Health Crisis?

A former FDA psychiatrist reveals what Big Pharma never told the public: the “chemical imbalance” story behind antidepressants was never proven — and SSRIs don’t fix a biological defect, they numb the brain. Glenn Beck and Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring break down how America became the most drugged nation in the world and how millions are being overprescribed medications that can cause paradoxical agitation, emotional blunting, and even suicidal behavior. With 15% of Americans — including millions of children — on SSRIs, are we facing a public health crisis hiding in plain sight?

Cracker Barrel's internal crisis EXPOSED

Cracker Barrel’s massive public meltdown didn’t happen by accident. Behind the scenes, the company was bleeding institutional knowledge, taking disastrous advice from DEI strategists, and making decisions that alienated the very customers who built the brand. A major board shake-up, the quiet removal of DEI frameworks, and the sudden resignation of a key DEI-linked board member reveal how deep the problems ran — and how desperate the company was to course-correct. This breakdown uncovers what really went wrong, how Cracker Barrel was influenced internally, and why the Glenn Beck interview triggered major internal moves that the public was never supposed to see.

GLENN: So, Stu, you can just questions about the special tonight.

STU: Yeah, for sure. I'm interested in this.

It's a big -- you know, a big special. You're back and forth with it. With them there. Was kind of fascinating. Right?

You have a situation where they -- they do seem to be sort of avoiding the question there on DEI. Is that how you read it? Oh, we lost connection with Glenn. Is that what's about to go?

Well, that's how I read it at least. You know, you listen to that clip of them going back and forth and it does appear to be them just sort of avoiding the question. We should get back to Glenn. Because I know he has this breaking news on this happen. Should we go to another clip on the Cracker Barrel thing, while we're waiting for Glenn to reconnect? Because it sort of sets the stage. You know, it was interesting to see their approach here, which is to try to explain themselves and try to work themselves through what is one of the biggest PR disasters probably in our lifetimes.

And let's go to this next clip.

VOICE: If we came out of COVID, A, trying to hire 50,000 people, we have a lot of our employees, original -- we did -- we lost a lot of very long tenured employees. A lot of them, a little bit older, and scared to come back into the -- into the environment.

And so --

GLENN: That's a lot of institutional knowledge.

VOICE: Oh, it hurt. I mean, it really hurt.

And in '22, as we started opening back up, we had the new menu that we had. So we lost a lot of people. We put a ton of training into that new menu.

Now we're coming back to open up, guests, any way we can get them. We had patio dining. We were testing a rock garden.

They were going to sit out in the landscape. And I always say that co-ed even made Cracker Barrel start drinking alcohol.

Because that's how -- it was out of COVID, that it was like, how are we figuring out how to drive top line sales and try to get a guest in.

GLENN: Okay. So that is a good example of you don't know any of the story. You think Cracker Barrel has never served alcohol before. Why are you shoving alcohol? That's a cultural. So it's easy to think, you're selling people alcohol now. What other values are you --

VOICE: And it's fair.

GLENN: That one, is at least understandable. Now that I understand the story.

VOICE: Yeah. Exactly. And so as we got into '23, I came out of my office administration role, and came into operations.

And I was leading field operations. And the best way for me to describe it, we were throwing Velcro balls at a wall to see what would stick.

STU: And it's understandable. You know, it's easy to kind of look at the Cracker Barrel situation and get lost at how badly it went.

A lot of these decisions come down to the information they had at the time. Right?

And they're looking at the time as a place that maybe people aren't coming into as much as they would like.

They are trying to -- maybe it's fading a little bit. Maybe some people find it's stale.

They think the situation at Cracker Barrel is not one that they're not necessarily trying to get involved with on a week to week basis, like they used to.

Maybe they had those warm feelings of the past. But they're not going in it anymore. Well, we'll freshen it up. We will do all these new things.

This will be great! And you realize, sometimes, when you're in that moment, you hit a -- you hate a vein. Right?

You're trying to do something positive for the company. And you hit a vein, and everything starts bleeding all over the place.

Let me give you another piece of this interview. Glenn Beck, up in the headquarters of -- of Cracker Barrel.

And somehow, I will give Glenn credit. Not eating throughout the interview.

I kind of thought, when they put food in front of him. He would just be shoveling it down his gullet the entire time.

You wouldn't be able to hear him. It would be like talking with his mouth full.

He got through it, without taking as many bites. Here is Glenn with the CEO of Cracker Barrel.

GLENN: Let's just get this out.

VOICE: Okay.

GLENN: What happened to the choices that were made?

I said on day one of this. I remember when they rolled out new Coke. And I thought, that was the dumbest marketing move, the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

We're taking the original formula and ditching it. And let's start over with a brand that people love.

The day this broke, I said on the air, new Coke!

That's what this is. And it was -- no offense. Stupid!

Just stupid from start to finish.

Can you walk me through how that happened?

VOICE: Yeah. Sure.

Look, our guests have every right to be upset.

GLENN: Yeah. You want to watch this. And I -- you know, what I really want to you watch for is a moment where I said to her, are you surprised you haven't been fired yet.

That spoke volumes. Her answer, and I hope it is captured on camera.

But that answer was the first non, you know, when you're a CEO. You know, I've -- Stu, do you remember when we used to have to do really important interviews.

And our PR people would be like, drill, drill, drill.

No, don't say that. Don't say that. And we would be like, yeah. Whatever.

And when you are in charge of a Fortune 500 company. And you're in the trouble that they're in, you do -- you know, you follow the people that you have hired to make sure crisis management. You don't make any more mistakes.

And so everybody was very, very careful.

They were very honest. But, you know, like that DEI thing.

She didn't really answer the question.

Of course, we want everybody to be welcomed. Yeah. I know. But that's not answering the question.

When I asked her, are you surprised you still have a job, and you haven't been fired yet. Her answer spoke volumes.

Now, the other thing that you need to know, that while she didn't answer me on the DEI thing. And I -- I -- you know, I can't tell you exactly how this happened.

I just know that they knew, that they didn't answer the question.

And somebody has been in touch with my people. And said, hey. You might want to watch the board meeting that is happening.

We can't tell you that anything is going to be happening. But the DEI thing may be solved. At the board meeting. That happened this morning. And they were going to release something at 11:15 today.

We didn't know exactly what it was.

We had -- we had an indication that it might be about DEI.

And what they've done, at first.

Remember, in August. You know, they just deleted the Pride pages. And the DEI pages.

And they just got rid of it all, at Cracker Barrel. That is just hiding who you are. The real problem was, they had a guy who was on the board of directors. Named Gilbert Davila.

And he's just resigned from the board, today!

Okay? They had a meeting with the board, and shareholders and everything else. And they voted on all of these people. And they did not renew him. And so he is -- he has resigned.

Now, his job -- he was a member of the standing board committee.

And his job was to assess the social and political risk to the company's business.

Well, who is he?

Well, he's also the CEO of a company called DMI Consulting.

That's a DEI strategy firm, that's been in business since 2010.

So he's one of the guys. He was the guy who, his job as the CEO -- as the CEO of DMI, is to promote, you know, DEI.

To make sure everybody is living up to the DEI standards. So Robby Starbuck, who is a friend of the program and, you know, great conservatives, who has been responsible for -- you know, getting a lot of these people out of these companies, or at least drawing attention on what these companies are really standing for.

He's been asking trial. What does he do to deserve this seat on the board?

Well, that's it. He owned a DEI consulting and strategy firm. That was pushing DEI and DEI advertising. So what's happened here is I think while she couldn't answer that question at the time, because the board hadn't acted, I think it's -- I think it's not not coincidental that the day the interview with her drops. With us.

Which they've known for a couple of weeks. This is when this interview would drop.

They -- they announced that morning, that seat has been eliminated. DEI is gone from Cracker Barrel. So I think that's really, really good news if you're a fan of Cracker Barrel.

And the things that I saw at Cracker Barrel, I'm -- I'm going to tell you some stuff tomorrow.

I just have to make sure that it's exactly accurate. Because I don't want to cause more problems.

For us!

And I want to make sure that I get it exactly right. But there were some things that I learned in the show prep.

And, you know, studying up for this interview.

That no one was prepared to talk to me on camera about. And always says to me, oh, well, there's something there.

And so we have done even more homework on it. And tomorrow, I will tell you about something that you might have heard about. This guy who owns, what is it?

Steak and Shake?

STU: Yeah. He's a big activist shareholder, isn't he?

Kind of against some of the leadership there at Cracker Barrel. I think I read about that.

GLENN: Correct. Yes. Yes.

And he has an interesting history.

And I want to -- I want to take you through some of that tomorrow.

I think by tomorrow, you're going to understand, what you saw with the DEI vote on the board today. Get that gone. That's gone.

The interview that you'll see tonight with Julie. The CEO. She's not who you think she is.

It doesn't mean she didn't make huge mistakes. She says she makes huge mistakes. But she's not who you think she is.

You may not agree with her or whatever. But it's important you know who she is. And what she said.

And the key tonight is that question: Are you surprised that you haven't been fired yet.

And really, what happened after she answers the question. And she's very uncomfortable. Answers the question.

And then she immediately switches topics. And I'm like, wait. Wait. Wait.

Stop. Stop. Go back. Why are you switching topics here?

Because it was an amazing moment. Is she immediately changes the subject. After she answers. And then she comes back, and she he says a few things. You'll see.

And then I bring it back to her again. And she switches topics again. And I'm like, why are you doing that?

Why are you doing that?

And she said a very interesting answer on all of that.

That is one of the most honest things I think I've ever seen a fortune five company or CEO ever say.

It was really uncomfortable. But really, really honest.

I think once you see this. And then I tell you tomorrow about the -- the board member, on the things that I can verify. I'm not sure what we can verify yet.

But the things that I've heard. And the things I think I can verify tomorrow. You will see that -- that I think they made stupid moves. They have really bad advice from DEI people.

And they were set up.

To some degree.

They were set up.

The company was. Not individuals. The company was set up.

I think it will -- I think you will have every question you needed to know about Cracker Barrel and what happened answered.

WARNING: The Threat of Sharia Law in American Cities is Now a Reality

Texas is becoming the front line of a growing ideological struggle. While courts block the Ten Commandments from classrooms, public schools are opening Islamic prayer rooms as CAIR and other Islamist political groups gain influence across the state. Glenn Beck and Chip Roy warn that this isn’t about private worship, but rather a coordinated movement to weaken the nation’s Judeo-Christian foundations, undermine constitutional law, and smuggle Sharia-aligned norms into American institutions. As judges enable these shifts and political factions fracture, a broader conflict is emerging that most Americans refuse to acknowledge. Texas may be the battleground that determines whether the West wakes up in time.

GLENN: We're talking to Chip Roy about the Islamification of Texas and the United States. What's going to be done. A -- a -- a -- a new attitude from Governor Greg Abbott yesterday. And a new proclamation that came out and said, enough is enough.

On CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood. We're going to deem them terrorist organizations. We were just talking about what's happening with the Ten Commandments. And before we -- before we switch here, one more thing on this -- this Muslim thing. In schools.

You know, we can't have the Ten Commandments, Chip.

However, at liberty High School in the Frisco ISD in Texas, they now have prayer rooms for Islamic prayers.

How is it we can't have the Ten Commandments in Texas, but Frisco ISD public school, Liberty High School, can have prayer rooms, and nobody says anything?

CHIP: Well, first of all, this is the double standard of the left. But let's take a step back. What you just said out loud. Frisco, Texas. Frisco. My daughter was born in Frisco.

GLENN: Yeah.

CHIP: Has now got Islamic prayer rooms, okay? That should concern you.

GLENN: It does.

CHIP: And by you, I mean the listeners out there. Like, Texas listeners.

And, yes, the Ten Commandments case. It's judicial activism. The Supreme Court has upheld the ability to have the Ten Commandments displayed in public form.

Again, the Ten Commandments sits on the grounds of the Texas Capitol. And the case like I said, Ted Cruz litigated as solicitor general. Working for then attorney general Greg Abbott. Governor Rick Perry, and we won that case.

And I think we will be able to win that case, when it goes up, and it's no doubt, it's being challenged in the fifth circuit.

Then likely the Supreme Court would look at it.

With past presidents and say, we have the Ten Commandments.

Look, we have to decide who we are as a people.

And we got to start acting like it. Because this nation has been blessed because we are a Judeo Christian people who formed a country. That is a -- liberal, in the classical sense. You know, republic liberal democracy.

And we allow the full range of views to be discussed. And for people to believe whatever they believe.

And you and I will die on the hill to protect that. To protect the government over the mind of man. But we are also are a group of people that's bound together by a common sense of ideals, in our history, in our founding. And when you break that down, you will no longer have a country. And that's what we've got to -- you know, when those men --

GLENN: Go ahead. Well, you were saying a minute ago. You know, that should concern you, that there are prayer rooms in Frisco, Texas. It doesn't concern me that there are prayer rooms.

What concerns me, this is a coordinated effort to bring Sharia law into our country.

I don't care if you're Muslim. And you respect the Judeo Christian laws that we have. That's what our country are built on.

That's what our laws are based on.

And you say, this is a really great system. Because it allows me and everybody else to worship God of our own understanding.

When you're part of a movement to subvert that law. And to fundamentally transform the United States into something that it is not.

That's when I have a problem! And that's when we should stand up, but that's one of the things that CAIR does. CAIR makes anything that we have said, Islamophobia. And so they shout you down, and make you afraid and try to paint you as a hater.

I don't hate. I don't hate Muslims.

I don't. I do despise Sharia Law, and I despise anyone who comes here, and wants to supplant the United States Constitution, and replace it with Sharia law. That's -- that's a no-go zone.

No. Sorry. Not going to do it.

JASON: And the history of Sharia law. And the history of those inherent to it, which would suggest that that is the goal.

GLENN: Yes.

CHIP: And that's what we've seen borne out in countries across the world. So we should recognize that in carrying out our policies and these activist judges, and they are going to cede the ground. Okay?

In the name of the First Amendment, they are going to cede the ground with a supposedly secular society.

And, you know, essentially, genuflecting to -- the Bill of Rights, while walking away from God.

They're going to cede the ground for a world in which we are going to invite those who wish to destroy America, to have a front row seat right here to do it, and we've got to stop those judges.
And we've got to act. And so, you know, the House of Representatives should act on such an obvious case like Boasberg.

We should -- and I know that my religious liberty friends will do that on the Ten Commandments.

And they're going to be litigating that. And I will be quite confident the state will litigate that to defend the state law and defend the schools.

Then you go to the -- you know, redistricting opinion. Right? It's really extraordinary. I don't know if you read the scathing rebuke of the two judges. The -- particularly, the one judge, Judge Brown by Jerry Smith, right? Who was dissenting judge in the three-judge panel. So for those of you who don't understand, when you have a case on the redistricting issues. Right? It goes to a three-judge panel. And this three-judge panel, it was a two-to-one opinion, and it was a Democrat appointee. Appointed judge.

It was a Trump-appointed judge. Judge Brown. And then Judge Jerry Smith, who has been on the bench for a long time. Very respected, conservative --

GLENN: Thirty-seven years.

CHIP: Yes, and Jerry was basically cut out. They didn't do their normal deliberation. He wrote a scathing letter yesterday.

In addition to them filing a dissent. Because he was blocked out of the process.

It was an extraordinary essentially power grab by the two judges.

Just to run this thing through. I don't think the Supreme Court will take kindly to that.

I think that the stay application that will be filed with the United States Supreme Court. I think that by tomorrow. They filed the stay last night with the strict.

In the district court.

But I think they will go to the Supreme Court, with the stay, probably tomorrow.

That attorney general Paxton and Abbott to strategize for the timing.

But I think that's right.

And, you know, I think the you court. Judge Roberts, his faults on many opinions, has been pretty good on race. You'll remember, the Supreme Court opinion that -- that struck down the abhorrent, you know, language in section five that was unconstitutional, Voting Rights Act. And they cleaned that up.

And in that opinion, Robert said, that divvying us up by race was a distorted business. That was his quote. And I think Roberts will be on the right side of this. I hope so.

Because this is very clearly political exercise by the legislature.

The judges tried to indicate that it was racial gerrymandering. No! It's the opposite.

Texas is trying to undo racial gerrymandering, which we believe is unconstitutional on its face. You've got California out there, who is taking five of the nine Republican seats away.
So it's currently, what?

I think, what? 45 to nine?

And it's now going to be something like 50 to four? My numbers may be off one or two. It's crazy.

And then in Texas, we were kind of trying to rebalance it a little bit.

Add four or five new states. A lot of growth in Texas. And now, they will say, that that's somehow not profitable. Because we somehow are doing racial gerrymandering.

We're undoing I think racial gerrymandering with a politically motivated goal of having more Republican seats in a very Republican state. So I hope the Supreme Court sees this for what it is.

And issues a statement. You know, we'll have to see what they do.

GLENN: Let me take to you Washington again. This Comey thing is driving me out of my mind.

Because once again, here's somebody, that looks like they will not pay a price for anything.

James Comey. A judge has said that the government has screwed this -- this up. In gathering information.

And filing.

And so now it looks like the Comey case will not move forward. Any thoughts on this?

CHIP: Well, look, I have not had a chance to dive into this as deeply. I know that the district Judge Nachmanoff, or whatever the judge's name was. Pressed, you know -- this -- this opinion forward.

And, you know -- or I'm sorry. Not pressed the opinion. Pressed prosecutors. A hearing.

And I don't know what the exact result is going to be.

The Biden appointee. And, you know, we're -- we're going it to see what the result is.

Obviously, Comey, we believe lied to I think the Senate judiciary committee, among others. Under oath.

And that is, in fact, an indictable offense.

And so, you know, I'll go look and see what they're claiming in terms of whether the grand jury got to see the final indictment.

Or whatever these issues are.

Obviously, the former prosecutor is important. You have to follow the procedures.

GLENN: You have to.

CHIP: Do it right. But also can't lose the forest for the trees. I think Comey very clearly lied. And so, we're going to -- hopefully, this will proceed. That's about all I've got on that one.

GLENN: All right. Chip, thank you very much. If anyone wants to get involved in your campaign for Texas attorney general, how do they do it?
CHIP: ChipRoy.com. C-H-I-P-R-O-Y.com. You can follow me at Chip Roy TX on X/Twitter.

And, Glenn, always appreciate what you're doing out there. Thanks for being on the tip of the spear. And the forefront of talking about this important issue. About defending Western civilization.

And all the issues. I'm deeply appreciative.

GLENN: I tell you, Chip. I -- I've been saying recently -- I've been saying it for a while, since I wrote the chalkboard on what was going to happen, back on Fox days. And I said, all these people will gather. And then they'll sort it out.

Once they think they have it, they will start eating each other.

And they're starting to see that with the left now eating the Democrats. So Democrats are over. Now it's just going to be Marxists. But it will come down to the Marxists and the anarchists and the Islamists. And as I said then, in the end, it will just be the Islamists, against the Western world.

Because I would bet on people who believe something, much more than the Marxists.

These people have religious zeal. And they will -- they will eat the Marxists. And then it will just be western world against the -- the Islamists. And I think, chip, we are in World War III.

We have just not declared it yet. And people haven't woken up to it yet.

We are in the beginning stages. You will see history in 100 years from now. Will write, this is the 1930s, if you will.

This is the beginning of a world war, and nobody has caught up with it, yet.

Would you agree with that?

CHIP: Yeah. Glenn, I agree with you. You have, and you were a long time ago -- others have caught up to it. And, frankly, caught up to where you were. And, look, it is one of the core reasons I'm running for attorney general.

Look, I can keep doing what I'm doing up here. God blessed me the ability to fight and make changes up here.

We've done some good things.

Look, we have to preserve in the state of Texas. And the battle is exactly what you said. You can't win a war. If you don't even acknowledge that it's happening.

That's the problem. People are asleep at it. Again, like I said, it's what I last talked about. Because of the reality that you just said.

And that vast network, we have got to follow the money and destroy that network. It's an integrated, related network. You know it. I know it. I can promise you, smart people in Washington are looking at this.

I can tell you, I'm building teams in Texas, to look at this right now. And connecting those teams in Texas and in Washington. And other AG's offices, which is what I'll do on day one of AG. Frankly, once I'm blessed with the nomination, I will be working on it all next year. We will build the team, and we will fight to dismantle it.
