We cover a lot of ground today. We start with the world being upside down and inside out. What is actually happening in the world? And what does it mean to not just America, but to the rest of the world? Because the exact same stuff is happening in Europe and here in England. Also, Hasan Piker. This guy is not dangerous because he's a Marxist. We've lived with this before. Why is this guy somebody that we really should pay attention to and watch? And why can't the Democratic Party get away from him? And a virus update, the hantavirus update, all on today's podcast.
Patriot Mobile. You know, every time you pay your Patriot Mobile bill and every time your phone rings, you know, all the blue dye falls out of somebody's, you know, their left his hair at all somewhere. It does. It's like an angel get its wings when you hear your phone ring in. It's, you know, a Patriot Mobile call. Blue dye just comes out. It's weird. It's really weird. Anyway, what is true about Patriot Mobile is what they're really all about. They're one of the few companies left that actually understand something really important. Your money has value attached to it, and many of the big mobile phone companies support causes and, you know, activists and everything else that you fundamentally disagree with. Maybe you thought, oh well, I mean, I got to fund it because I need my mobile phone service. No, no, not like you used to. Patriot Mobile, this is where they come in. They offer dependable nationwide coverage, competitive pricing, real customer service, and they support all the things you actually believe in. Free speech, religious liberty, the Constitution, the men and women who fight for this country. I think people are really tired of feeling like they have to choose between getting a good service and supporting their values. But with Patriot Mobile, you don't have to make that choice. You get both. patriotmobile.com/beck, patriotmobile.com/beck. Use the promo code Beck and get a free month of service. 972-PATRIOT promo code Beck, 972-PATRIOT promo code Beck or patriotmobile.com/beck.
Hello, America. You know we've been fighting every single day. We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you. We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it. But to keep this fight going, we need you. Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast? Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth. This isn't a podcast. This is a movement and you're part of it, a big part of it. So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top. Rate, review, share. Together, we'll make a difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Inflation is at the worst it has been since 2023 That is not good for the president or for those who wish to support the president, and he's going to China.
And I would really suggest you stay home and also be seen listening and working for the people, Mr. President.
Because this is not good. This is not good. Ricky just said to me a minute ago that she thought he will play the same card he played at Mar-a-Lago with President Xi, Xi, and retaliate against Iran when he's in China. And you know what? That makes sense. That kind of fits into his pattern. And you know, the first term, I really thought the guy was, and I said this to him. I said, you know, you're a human hand grenade. What would you do? Nobody thought that was possible. I said, you're a human hand grenade. He said, what do you mean by that? I said, you just throw yourself in a room, you blow up and a wall comes down. And then you're like, hey, what's behind that wall? And you just find things. I don't know why, I don't know how, but you just do.
That was my view in the first term. I think this guy is extraordinarily strategic.
But I could be giving him too much credit. I don't think so, but I think he's extraordinarily strategic. So it'll be interesting to see what he does. Jason, give me that Laura Ingraham tweet that she gave because I don't like this, if this is what's happening over in China.

**Jason** (4:36)
Yeah. So I think we should classify this as rumors, I don't think anybody really knows yet. But Laura Ingraham yesterday tweeted, there was a quote from another article about what the president and Xi Jinping were reportedly considering. And it was a quote, deal to allow China to invest one trillion in the US, largely to build factories on American soil.
