Why YOU should care that King Charles may RUIN the monarchy

King Charles III may cause the world to severely miss Queen Elizabeth — whether they expected to or not — and a video Pat shows Glenn of Charles’ anger on full display shows why. But it gets even worse. In fact, Glenn thinks Charles may be worse than many of America’s far-left. In this clip, Glenn explains why he worries Charles could ruin the British monarchy, and he explains why Americans should even care…

GLENN: Going to miss the Queen, but when you see king Charles III, I think all the world will soon say, going to miss the Queen. Wow.
PAT: They might already be saying that. There was a little photo op, or video op, even of him -- I don't know what he's signing. You know, the king really doesn't sign bills into law.
GLENN: Yeah, yeah.
PAT: So -- but he's -- he's -- he's motioning to the people that are helping him, and clearly outraged about these pens that are in the way. And he wants them removed. Look at these -- there's two videos, the first one, just kind of shows you, how he -- how easily he can set it off. Okay. So now. Then he sits down, and then he still is pissed. The expression on his face.
GLENN: Oh, my gosh. He, like, bares his teeth. It's like, are you a dog?
PAT: Yes. He clenches his teeth like he's going to bite somebody.
GLENN: He's not a good guy.
PAT: No, he's not.
GLENN: And he's also a little nutty.
PAT: Yeah. And he's an extreme leftist.
GLENN: Oh, I think extreme leftists go, I'm not with him.
PAT: Yeah.
GLENN: His father said, if he could come back. If reincarnation were real, he would want to come back as a virus because humans are the problem.
PAT: Oh, that's right. Yeah.So he comes from a along line of kooks.
GLENN: He is -- oh, yeah. And he's big in ESG and everything else. And, you know, I'm going to start laying something out later on, that I learned while I was over in Europe. That is, I think -- I think it's another -- I think I found another piece of history, that is as big as Woodrow Wilson for me.
PAT: Oh, wow.
GLENN: You know, where everybody is like, what are you talking about? And then once people started to understand, they were like, oh, my gosh. This is the Rosetta stone. I think I found another one. And it is -- and you'll understand him. You'll understand everything. Talk about it a little bit. I have to talk to my staff about it, so I can really lay it all out for you. Later on today.
This thing with Prince Charles now king Charles the third. Is very, very disturbing. We were in Florence, Italy, when it happened.
And the people there, you can see, were affected by it. Everybody, I think really -- whether you wanted her to be queen, or whatever. She affected your life. I think universally liked her.
PAT: Seems like it.
GLENN: Yeah. I think in thinking about it, last week, I think she may have been the greatest political leader of the 20th century. And when I say political, I don't really mean political, because she refused most times to get involved in politics. That's according to their constitution. She can't.
But she guarded that. And her job as queen, was to be an icon or a reminder, to set the standards of what we as a society, western society, should uphold. And -- and strive to be like. And I have to tell you --
PAT: Seems to have done a good job at that.
GLENN: I think so. You like her, hate her, whatever. You look at the end of her life, would you not be proud to go out with her reputation and her memory?
PAT: Yeah.
GLENN: I would.
PAT: Yeah. With the affection that people had for her. Yeah.
GLENN: And the fact that you don't have any tapes flying around with her, flying into a rage, or being, whatever.
PAT: Sleeping with the king of France. None much those things.
GLENN: You don't have any of those. You don't have any of those. You know, they just auctioned off a letter. And I followed it just because I found it hysterical. A letter of hers that was written the week that Diana died. And it went for a lot of money. But not because Diana was mentioned in it. Or the press. It had nothing to do with the actual words written in the letter. It had everything to do with the use of an exclamation point.
She -- well, this sounds crazy. She was actually virulently opposed to the exclamation point. She spent her whole life saying, it should -- it shouldn't even exist. It doesn't exist. It serves no purpose. If the letter is written correctly, you will understand the case and why this person is upset. And don't even get me started, good thing she didn't ever go online, with the use of exclamation points.
But she was against them, because there's no need for that kind of rhetoric. In this one letter, she used an exclamation point, and it was the only time in her life that she did it.
PAT: Wow.
GLENN: She was just temperate. Charles, you know, it's really fascinating to me. It's always the third generation. And, by the way, that would be us. It's always the third generation, look at the stock that her father came from. Her father was -- he did not want to be king. He had no desire to be king. He didn't -- he stuttered.
He was a guy like Moses. He really should not be the king. And was not prepared, ever to be the kipping. Because his brother was the first born. His brother cozies up to a -- to a Nazi sympathizer. An American, by the way.
And falls head over heels in love with her, and decides, I'm leaving. And I'm abdicating. So now, here's Elizabeth, watching her father, struggle through all of this. And try to be prepared and try to become the king. When he wasn't supposed to be
He becomes the king, by the time, she's 14, she realizes, I'm going to have to be the queen. At 21, on her 21st birthday, she gives an incredible speech about pledging her loyalty to serve the people and the commonwealth. Her whole life with honor.
She lived up to that. So now her father is unbelievably great. She's unbelievably great. And the third generation, just they don't care.
I don't think Charles has any honor in him. And -- and it could destroy it.
Just like, I think this is a lesson for all of us.
It is our generation that has let it fall. We have not done our job. However, are we raising our children to be able to step in, and are we giving our children who can step in the opportunity to maybe step in a little earlier than they should?
I think William would be a great king. With all that he learned from not only his grandmother, his father, and his mother, Diana, I think he could restore this. And be a good king.
Charles, if he lasts more than five years, I would be surprised. And if he's smart, he would abdicate in five years, and give it to his son. Because Charles will destroy the -- the monarchy. I know you don't care. I don't really care. Except, the monarchy under Elizabeth, was the one stabilizing of constant reminder, of where we came from. It is a historic institution. Good, bad, indifferent, it doesn't matter. It's a reminder of history. You take away the monarchy and try to teach to your kids the Founders and who they fought after -- who they fought against. Why they fought against it. Why is the monarchy bad? And, you know, why was she stripped of all of her powers?
This is gravely disorienting and gravely dangerous, having a Charles step in.
If he's learned anything from his mother, and he actually does it, the monarchy has a chance.
If he starts to get involved and blab his mouth, and he is seen doing anything, anything, the monarchy is over.
And most Americans don't care. You should. Because it is a -- it's a mile-marker. It is an institution, that reminds who we are, where we've come from.
And the best thing is, Americans don't pay a dime for it. So I'm all for that.

EXCLUSIVE: Chip Roy Explains His FIERY Rejection of Spending Bill

According to the media, there’s a big fight going on between Republicans over the House’s new slimmed-down continuing resolution spending bill. Some, including President-elect Donald Trump, wanted the bill to pass. But others, like Texas Representative Chip Roy, argued that it still wasn’t ready. However, is the Republican “unity coalition” really crumbling, like the media claims? Rep. Chip Roy joins Glenn to explain what’s really going on. He argues that he IS trying to give Trump and DOGE a 100-day “runway” to fix the country. But he makes the case that, by increasing the debt ceiling by $5 trillion without agreeing on other cuts, this bill gives bad actors the ability to be an “obstacle” to Trump’s agenda further down the line. Plus, he reveals to Glenn that he believes some of these bad actors LEAKED false information about his stance to Mar-a-Lago.

GLENN:

I think we have a great opportunity today. To show you how to have a -- tough conversation, with friends, friends. Where you deeply disagree on something.

But you know that their intent is good. They know my intent is good. Or our intent is good.

And we actually have the same end goal, but we disagree on the path. And we're going to walk away friends.

Chip Roy is joining us today. And, Chip, I love you. And I always will. And I agree with your, we've got to cut spending. We have to. But Liz Wheeler is with me. And we've been talking about it all morning. It's the -- the -- the -- the system of DOGE and Trump, the call-out to the world, in saying, you've got to surrender the Capitol. You know, the bad guys are in and about to take all the money.

Surround, and tell them, come out with your hands up. And that happened. And we scored a massive win, in an entirely new way.

Ask then you stood on principle, one we both agree with.

And it failed!

And so here's -- here's what Liz and I were talking about. Here's what we want to say to you.

And then get your response.

LIZ: Hi, Congressman Roy, this is the way I see it. I want your take on it. I love you. I think you're one of the best members of Congress. I disagree with you on the process that's happening. And I think that is the difference. The process. We elected Donald Trump to be a disruptor. Because Republican members of Congress for decades have been telling they're fiscal conservatives. They want to decrease the debt SEAL. It hasn't happened.

It hasn't -- it hasn't been done. And so Donald Trump comes in with Elon Musk, and uses this DOGE process to first identify these pieces of garbage in the first 1500-page bill. And take those things to the people. We took them to members of Congress. Congress said, okay. We'll listen to you.

So that new process was very effective.

And my question to you is: Once that process was proved to be effective. Which I think is exciting and wonderful.

How do we bridge this divide, with you, to say, okay.

Let's put some faith in this new process. And trust Elon Musk and Donald Trump and the Dow Jones process, to eventually address the debt ceiling, but get this done right now?

GLENN: And not blind trust. Chip.

CHIP: So appreciate you guys. Appreciate being on the show. Particular order. I have to go through a couple of things.

GLENN: Yep.

CHIP: Number one, it's important to remember that my job and my duty is to the Constitution, to God, and the people I represent. I told them, when I came to Washington, I would not -- I would not let the credit card and the debt ceiling and the borrowing of the United States without the spending restraints necessary to offset it.

GLENN: Okay.

CHIP: Right now, all we have are promises and ideas and notions. What I know, that neither of you respectfully no, and that none of your listeners respectfully no are the people that are in the room, that I was in with yesterday. And the day before, who are recalcitrant.

And do not want to do the spending cuts that we need to do.

That I believe the president and the DOGE guys. And everybody want to do.

My job, is to force that through the meat grinder. To demand that we do our damn job. Okay?

GLENN: Okay. So hang on. Okay. So wait. Wait. You're right. You're right. You're right. Go ahead.

CHIP: Number thee, when we were going through the bill, I'm glad the bill dropped from 1,550 pages to 116 pages. Three-quarters of Twitter or X or whatever you want to call it, have been out there spreading false facts that we supported a bad bill and didn't like the better bill.

That's not true. But let's be Lear. The 1400 pages that were cut out. It's a panacea.

There were some good stuff in there. There were some bad stuff in there. There was a lot of disinformation.

There wasn't a $70,000 pay raise. There was a 3,000-dollar pay raise.

I didn't support any pay raise. I didn't support a lot of the stuff in there.

But there's a lot of misinformation. And here's the thing: The 116 pages that were left, and I opposed violently the first bill. I was leading the charge on fighting and killing the first bill.

GLENN: And I love you.

LIZ: The second bill for 116 pages. Turned off -- turned off the pay go requirement. That we slash 1.7 trillion automatically.

And added a 5 trillion that are increase.

My view was, I could not support that, without a clear understanding of what cuts we would get, in mandatory spending next year. And undo any of the Inflation Reduction Act.

The undoing of the student loans. The undoing of the crap with the food stamps.

And everything else. I yield back.

GLENN: Okay. I yield back.

Chip, you're not in a hostile room. We love you. And we agree with your end goals. It's our end goal too. We didn't make that promise that you made to the people that voted for you. So we have more wiggle room here.

But you say -- I think our big difference is, you say, I know the guys in the room.

You're right. You do. And we -- we ceded that earlier today on the show.

You are -- one of us is wrong on trust.

I don't trust any of the weasels in Washington.

But I think Donald Trump and Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have earned enough trust, to get a grace period, here for the first -- maybe the first year.

Or at least six months.

To turn the economy around, and also reduce the size of the government.

And totally flip this thing.

And I know, as somebody who is -- you know, run a company, mainly into a ground. But run a company, and have to switch it, in the middle, and totally reshuffle. That -- that actually costs money, while you're doing it, to bridge the gap.

Because you have to fill up holes while you're filling in the gap.

You don't trust the people in the room. Neither do we.

But we do trust the system that worked on Wednesday with DOGE and Donald Trump.

Where do we disagree?

Can you give them --

CHIP: We don't disagree. And yesterday morning, I was making that precise argument in a room full of conservatives and then a follow-up room with people who will call it, less conservatives.

GLENN: Republican. Yes.

CHIP: And so we were making this argument. And then someone infamously. Something leaked out of the room, somehow out to Mar-a-Lago. That I was being resistant. Because I was negotiating trying to get the agreement to achieve the objective that you just said. I was trying to get, okay. In fact, yesterday morning, I made the argument to a group of conservatives. We need to give the president runway. We need to give him his first 100 days. We need to appreciate JD, and Vivek, and all the people -- and everybody involved. For the president to achieve the objective.

But to get there. We have to make sure that the guys in the room, that are an obstacle to that, don't have the ability to block it.

Because information flow matters. And when those guys tell the president, they can't achieve X.

Then the president will not achieve X. Our job was to force and demand, guys, we need actual understanding of what the cuts will be.

And because otherwise, we're asking us to accept a 5 trillion-dollar limit in our credit card increase. In exchange for nothing!

Literally, in exchange for nothing, but -- but hope.

So our job was to force that change.

Unfortunately, while I was trying to make the argument that we needed something in order to get the votes, someone leaked that down to Mar-a-Lago, and the president reacted.

But now I have to now manage that.

GLENN: Right. I know. I know.

CHIP: They're trying to enforce change in town.

GLENN: So hang on.

We have to leave this. Because I'm going to run against the clock.

I could talk to you all day about this. You were in a meeting this morning about J.D. Vance. Can you tell us anything about that meeting?

CHIP: That meeting happened, because despite what happened yesterday, I'm trying to get this done. Last night, talking to JD, we worked to get this meeting done. We had some good progress this morning.

But there still remains people concerned about spending. That we can work out, what agreement we can reach. On what spending cuts. We can actually get next year, in exchange for giving the vote on a debt ceiling increase.

So it remains fluid. Progress was made. But we have to keep working on it.

And I left that meeting to talk to you. Soil get an update in a minute.

GLENN: Thank you for that, by the way.

I hear there is a new bill that may be coming today.

Is that the one you're talking about?

Or is this another bill that could be another nightmare?

CHIP: Despite other people leaking crap, I refused. I can't say, because it's not been decided by the speaker.

And it's not right to talk about things they're talking about in private meetings.

GLENN: Yeah, but it's -- it's this speaker. I mean, is he really the speaker anymore, Chip, really?

CHIP: We need to hear what bill we need to get forward. And I can't talk about the private meetings. But, look, I'm going to keep fighting for what I promised people that I represent.

I'm going to fight to cut spending. I am going to represent article one.

I'm going to support the president's agenda, but we've got to do that together.

GLENN: Okay.

Chip, thank you.

I think we can -- I think we agree, but I await to see what that means to you. Because we may just have to agree to disagree on this.

But I love you. And I still want you to replace Cornyn.

CHIP: The short version is, for inflation's sake, we cannot increase the debt ceiling $5 trillion without knowing what we're getting for it.

And I don't think anybody should disagree with that.

GLENN: But you don't disagree that Elon Musk and Trump and Vivek are serious about gutting the system.

CHIP: I believe that is their objective. I believe there are obstacles to that objective. And I need to know the sincerity of how we deal with those obstacles, both structural, and human. And we have to figure that out. And that's my job.
