‘He’s not going to play around’: How Trump NEEDS to eliminate the cartels



The New York Times has recently released a piece arguing that if President Donald Trump puts a halt to the Mexican drug cartels, it could hurt the American economy.

Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” is now questioning the newspaper’s sanity.

“The New York Times has a concern about the economic impact of Trump’s plan to identify and hold the cartels responsible,” Glenn says, adding, “If you’re in that business, you probably aren’t using a bank.”

However, regardless of what the New York Times believes, Trump is coming for the cartels — and Glenn has an idea of how he should do it.


“He would assign people to make a list of who those terrorists are,” he explains. “Then they’ll give it to the president, and they’ll say, ‘Here’s the case against these guys and this cartel and many other cartels’ and the president will say, ‘What do you recommend?’”

“And they’ll say, ‘We go in at night with our night vision and we kill them all,’ and he says, ‘OK,’ and so then we go in at night, and we kill them all. And in the morning, everybody wakes up surprised ‘cause they’re dead,” Glenn says.

“He’s not going to play around. You are going to see death and destruction of these cartels,” he continues. “He is very clear, ‘I am going to kill the cartels because they’re terrorist operations, and they’re operating here in the United States and causing a lot of pain and suffering, and so I’m going to kill them all.’”

“I mean, he’s designated them terrorist groups,” Stu Burguiere chimes in. “We know what has happened with, you know, Al-Qaeda or whatever. When he designates a terrorist group, it gives us what we consider, and other countries don’t, the legal authority to go in and do these types of things.”

Just the threat of deportations is working: Illegal immigrants are 'voluntarily deporting themselves' at southern border



Donald Trump has been the president for just a few days and already, there’s “an outflow of persons” at the southern border.

Illegal immigrants are “voluntarily deporting themselves,” says Glenn Beck.

The majority of Americans will be glad of this, adds co-host Stu Burguiere, pointing to recent Axios polling revealing that 66% of Americans support mass deportations.

And it’s not the only poll to suggest this. Polling from the New York Times, Marquette Law School, CBS, and ABC all came up with similar numbers.

The radical leftist media, however, is trying to paint the picture that “we're going to have military members going school to school to find children who are illegal immigrants and deport them,” says Stu.

The truth, however, is that deportation efforts will be focused on “criminals who have committed other crimes,” as Trump and border czar Tom Homan have repeatedly stated.

Further, the “overwhelming majority” of deportations will be self-imposed, as illegal immigrants realize “there's no longer this giant welcome mat for [them] to come here illegally,” Stu tells Glenn.

Those in sanctuary cities who think they will be shielded from deportation are in for a rude awakening as well, adds Glenn.

Once criminals in these blue cities are released, they will likely try to hide with family or friends who are also in the country illegally. If ICE finds them, “They'll bust everybody,” he explains. “Any sanctuary city that's saying we're not going to help ICE, you're only getting more people deported quicker.”

Glenn then reads a recent article from the Chicago Tribune that will make your stomach churn.

Stu gets RESULTS: After horrifying documentary exposing corrupt FAA, Trump signs EO outlawing DEI



Just a couple of months ago, Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” went on a quest to pinpoint what’s causing the internal rot of America’s aviation industry. Why, for example, are we seeing an increase in aircraft malfunctions and nearly three “close calls” (planes narrowly avoiding crashing into each other) per week?

In the Blaze Originals documentary “Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster,” Stu unveiled a number of his disturbing findings. From outdated technology to manufacturing issues to the COVID pandemic, the list of what’s wrong is a long one.

However, one issue stood out among the rest: The Federal Aviation Administration introduced DEI initiatives into its hiring process.

One result was a gross shortage of qualified air traffic controllers — the people who make sure aircraft don’t crash into each other.

Stu discovered that would-be air traffic controllers had to pass two exams: a merit-based test that assessed skills related to the job and a biographic exam that was supposedly aimed at diversifying the hiring pool. What it actually did was weed out white males — even the ones who received a perfect score on the merit-based test.

He also discovered there was an initiative at the FAA to hire people with “severe disabilities.” Before it was taken down, the webpage stated, “The FAA actively recruits, hires, promotes, retains, develops, and advances people with disabilities,” including “hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability, and dwarfism.”

When you evaluate this information, it’s easy to see why the safety of our skies has taken a hit.

Thankfully, we can now put those days behind us. Now that Donald Trump is back in the Oval Office, there’s hope that our skies will be safe again.

On his latest episode of “Stu Does America,” Stu reveals that President Trump has now signed an executive order that prohibits the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration from implementing DEI hiring policies and demands an immediate return to non-discriminatory, merit-based hiring.

America’s dumbest senator award goes to …



On Tuesday, Trump’s defense secretary nominee, Pete Hegseth, an Army veteran and former Fox News host, was excoriated by Congress in a hearing that was anticipated to be contentious. A sexual assault allegation from 2017, which resulted in no criminal charges, as well as allegations of alcoholism, all of which were reported by anonymous sources, were expected to be used as ammunition against the former Army National Guard officer by his congressional naysayers.

And they were.

Among the most vicious of his detractors was Hawaii Senator Mazie Hirono (D).

“She’s America’s dumbest senator,” says Glenn Beck’s co-host, Stu Burguiere.

Glenn agrees and plays a clip from the hearing as proof.

In the clip, Hirono asks Hegseth if he would “use our military to take over Greenland or an ally of Denmark.”

Hegseth’s response was solid: “Senator, one of the things that President Trump is so good at is never strategically tipping his hand, and so I would never in this public forum give one way or another direct orders the president would give me in any context.”

Hirono, in typical Democrat fashion, interrupted him, saying, “That sounds to me that you were contemplating carrying out such an order to basically invade Greenland.”

Glenn and Stu can’t help but laugh at Hirono’s stupidity.

“I don't think there's any chance we just invade Greenland,” says Stu.

“Of course not,” agrees Glenn.

On the other hand, “Trump, in a way, always tips his hand,” Stu offers. “He does want Greenland. … He’s told us about it for years,” but “when it comes to specific things he’s willing to do and not willing to do in a negotiation, he’ll suggest a bunch of stuff, but you don’t know what’s real. That’s why he’s a good negotiator.”

“I don't think there's any chance [the U.S. will invade Greenland]; there's some doubt even in my mind that we might do it, and that's why [Trump’s negotiation style] works,” he laughs.

Post-DEI America: a profitable future unfolds



Has the time come for corporate DEI to die? It would seem so, as businesses are rediscovering profitability by refocusing on their customers rather than black squares or woke packaging.

“We’re seeing more and more changes going this way,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” comments, adding, “We don’t know what the reasoning is exactly, but we can all kind of take a little bit of a guess.”

One of the most recent examples is American Airlines, which a judge says has violated federal law through its ESG investing strategy. In a 70-page ruling following a four-day, non-jury trial, Judge Reed O’Connor of the North District of Texas ruled that the airline violated its fiduciary duty of loyalty by letting asset manager BlackRock weigh environmental factors and 401k funds.

“A federal judge in one of the country’s foremost conservative district courts ruled Friday that American Airlines unlawfully incorporated environmental and sustainable governance — ESG factors — into its employee retirement plan,” Stu explains, adding, “You can’t just do that, and now they’re getting slapped down in court.”


But American Airlines isn’t the only one, as Pfizer must also face a lawsuit over a diversity fellowship program.

On Friday, a U.S. appeals court revived a lawsuit by a conservative group opposed to diversity initiatives in medicine that challenged a Pfizer fellowship program that was designed to boost the pipeline of black, Latino, and Native American people in leadership positions at the pharmaceutical company.

“Basically, they just admitted a pretty large mistake in their ruling and revised it,” Stu explains, noting that the incoming inauguration of Donald Trump may be having an effect on these companies as well.

“We’ll see if these things wind up having a shelf life beyond the inauguration,” he says. “And that’s another potential explanation for all of this. Look, Donald Trump is coming into power, he’s threatened a lot of these companies, ‘Get your act together or I’m coming after you,’ and so they’re quote unquote ‘getting their act together’ whether they mean it or not.”

LGBTQ fire chief: DEI and leadership failures fuel LA’s wildfire disaster



The wildfires in California have devastated and left thousands of Americans homeless — and people aren’t sure whom, or what, to blame.

“It’s not just a natural disaster,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” says. “A natural disaster is a real thing, and you have to deal with it sometimes, and it can be really, really, ugly, but it’s also kind of been strange incompetence and strange priorities by the state of California and local officials.”

James Woods, who has been displaced by the catastrophic fires, puts some blame on those authorities himself.

“Our new fire chief,” Woods began in a recent interview with Fox News, “She took over and she put on her bio that her priority, ‘My highest priority is inclusion, diversity, and equity. That is my priority.’”

“And somebody forgot to fill all the reservoirs, I guess, with water, because when I was getting smoke alarms there was a fire truck parked in front of my house but they couldn’t pump any water because there was none because they didn’t put them in the reservoirs,” he continued.


“Now, DEI is of course very important when you’re fighting fires. I only want my house and a fire that happens to be engulfing my home to be put out by someone from Mongolia. That’s just my personal stand, it’s very, very important to me,” Burguiere jokes in response.

“I think most people though are the opposite. Most people don’t care what color the person is who’s putting out a fire. They just want the fire to be put out,” he continues, “they want water to be available to the fire department. Seems like a pretty good idea, but diversity, equity, and inclusion is really important.”

Just a few years ago, the California fire chief was praised for her three-year strategic plan to increase diversity.

“People ask me, ‘What number are you looking for?’ I said, ‘I’m not looking for a number. It’s never enough,’” the fire chief said in a 2022 interview before she was praised by the interviewer for being a “proud member of the LGBTQ community.”

“Wow,” Stu comments. “Thank God, we’ve got a woman who likes chicks at the head of our fire department because that’s the important feature that you need. It really, really matters who she wants to go to bed with when you’re talking about, ‘Can you put a fire out?’”

Caught in a lie: Trump’s $15M triumph over ABC!



We all make mistakes, but unlike ABC News, it’s not usually to the tune of $15 million.

According to the settlement, ABC News will pay the millions as a charitable contribution to a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past.”

ABC will also pay $1 million in Trump’s attorney fees.

“They’ve lied about Trump so many times, for them to actually get caught in one of these lies, it just feels kind of nice. Makes you have a good, warm, holiday glow,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” comments, laughing, “ABC News is going to build the presidential library of Donald Trump.”

George Stephanopoulos and ABC News were also forced to issue statements of regret following Trump’s win as an editor’s note at the bottom of a March 10, 2024, online article, regarding comments made that prompted Trump to file the defamation suit.


The note reads, “ABC News and George Stephanopoulos regret statements regarding President Donald J. Trump made during an interview by George Stephanopoulos with Rep. Nancy Mace on ABC’s 'This Week' on March 10, 2024.”

“Now, to be very clear, up-front here, I have very strong feelings on the accusations from E. Jean Carroll. These are my own personal feelings,” Burguiere comments. “I don’t think this event occurred. This is my opinion, to the very litigious people out there who might be watching, but like, I don’t buy it at all.”

“But I am a little torn on this one, and I’ll tell you why,” he continues, noting that Stephanopoulos said in the interview with Nancy Mace that Trump was found “liable for rape.”

“In the mildest defense of George Stephanopoulos, that is basically what the court said. The court, I believe, incorrectly said that he did these things, and frankly, in many other circumstances, this would be rape,” Burguiere says.

“The judge is saying it’s the dictionary definition of the word ‘rape,’ and the fact that he made that mistake, is a mistake. Should he apologize for that mistake? I think yeah,” he continues, adding, “But is that really a $15 million mistake?”

‘This is what the people want’: Resistance to Trump’s deportation plan is WEAKENING



Donald Trump made some serious promises to the American people, and while some question his ability to keep them, Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” believes he’ll make good on these promises — specifically regarding mass deportations.

“I think they’ll go pretty big,” Burguiere says. “He was re-elected largely, partially, based on his border stance and how poorly the border went under Joe Biden. And so he’s going to be, I think pretty, aggressive on this.”

And Tom Homan is only confirming Stu’s belief.

The incoming border czar told residents of Chicago this week that mass deportations would start in the Windy City, whose mayor, Brandon Johnson, has said he plans to protect illegal immigrants from federal agents.

“Chicago’s in trouble because your mayor sucks, and your governor sucks,” Homan said, not mincing words. “If he doesn’t want to help,” he continued, singling out Johnson, “get the hell out of the way.”


“Now, the way the immigration law is set up, and this is a little confusing and at times makes things difficult, cities cannot get in the way. Brandon Johnson is a moron, and he cannot get in the way, not legally at least. What he can do is just not help,” Burguiere explains.

“If you happen to arrest someone for, let’s say theft, you could say, ‘Hey, by the way, not only do we have you on theft, but we also have you on this border violation. We’re going to send you to the authorities for that.’ They could easily participate in that type of situation, and that’s really what the Trump administration is asking for,” he continues.

“Instead, they’re just getting opposition from all over the place, even though places like New York want mass deportations to occur. New York voters want the state to support Trump deportations,” he adds, noting that a Siena College poll shows that 54% of respondents say the state should support any Trump administration efforts to deport immigrants living there illegally.

According to the poll, only 35% of respondents oppose the plan.

“I will remind you, that’s not a national poll. That’s a poll of the state of New York that voted for Kamala Harris by, I think, 12 points. So that is a remarkable thing,” Burguiere says, adding, “This is what the people want.”

NBC leaves out CRITICAL context in Trump interview



Unlike Kamala Harris, President-elect Donald Trump isn’t afraid to sit down for conversation with his opposition — and he gave his first sit-down interview since winning the 2024 election to NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

And of course, picking at Trump’s plan for the immigration crisis was at the top of interviewer Kristen Welker’s mind.

“You promised to end birthright citizenship on day one. Is that still your plan?” Welker asked, to which Trump promptly responded, “Yeah, absolutely.”

“The 14th Amendment though says that ‘All persons born in the United States are citizens.’ Can you get around the 14th Amendment with an executive action?” Welker asked again.


“We have to end it. We’re the only country that has it,” Trump said. “You know, if somebody sets a foot, just a foot. One foot. You don’t need two, on our land, congratulations, you are now a citizen of the United States of America. Yes, we’re going to end that because it's ridiculous.”

Welker continued asking if Trump planned to do so through executive action, which he first offered that they would need to “go back to the people.” Finally, he replied again with “if we can.”

Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” can’t help but point out the flaw in Welker’s use of the 14th Amendment. “It was written for slavery. It was written because all citizens could vote.”

“So the Southerners, the Democrats, said, ‘Well, they’re not citizens, they’re from Africa, so they can’t vote,’” he continues. “If you were born here, even if you were born a slave, that’s what that was about. That was not illegal immigration,” Glenn explains.

“We are the only one that has it. And the only reason we do have it is because of slavery. It was a way to make sure the Democrats didn’t just cut blacks out of the vote again. That’s what’s so crazy,” he adds.

Not only does Welker not seem to understand the history behind the 14th Amendment, Stu Burguiere points out that she doesn’t understand what the amendment itself says.

“‘All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States, and of the state wherein they reside,’” Burguiere reads from the 14th Amendment. “That phrase, ‘and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,’ means that illegal immigrants are not included.”

“To be subject of that jurisdiction means that you have to have a basis in the country. So it’s not like you just cross the border and, ‘Hey, I’m now a subject of this jurisdiction.’ You’re a visitor,” Burguiere continues.

“Or in this case, a criminal crossing the border. So you would not necessarily get those protections of that 14th Amendment,” he adds.

‘Who is the president of the United States?’ How Trump is putting the world ON NOTICE



Axios recently released an article titled “Trump's shadow presidency clouds Biden's final weeks” — and Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” has a few thoughts.

“Here’s the only shadow presidency that we should be talking about, and that is, who the hell is president right now? It’s not him. I don’t care what anybody says, it’s not him,” Glenn says, adding, “Who is the president of the United States?”

“I mean, it’s going so poorly, it’s hard to believe it’s not him,” Stu Burguiere jokes. “Kind of seems central to his governing philosophy. But I think you’re right. It doesn’t seem like he’s really the president.”

The Axios article, unfortunately, gets worse. The author writes, “But the norm-busting assertiveness of Donald Trump and his transition team and the rapidly fading relevance of President Biden has given the U.S. something of a two-headed presidency.”


“No, here’s what happened. This is not a shadow presidency. This is promises kept. The world is being put on notice right now. There’s a new sheriff in town,” Glenn says. “Now, we can play this two ways. You can understand that the time of insanity is over, and you can start preparing right now to fix that.”

“He means what he says. ‘Tariffs are coming.’ So when he calls the new president of Mexico and says, ‘This is what’s coming. You want to play ball or do you want to be outside?’” Glenn says, “He’s doing that with almost everything.”

This is what the difference is between Joe Biden and Donald Trump and why the world is now preparing for the new president to take office.

“When Joe Biden was the elect, and he was saying, ‘We’re not going to prosecute anybody,’” Glenn explains, “Donald Trump is telling heads of state, ‘Return to law and order.’”

“Joe Biden was saying, ‘There’s no law and order here, there’s no sheriff in town,’” he adds.
