Glenn Beck’s Reaction to Trump’s REVOLUTIONARY Speech to Congress

In his first speech to Congress as the 47th president, Donald Trump made it clear that America is back! And the polls reflect that, with CBS News finding that 76% of respondents approved of Trump’s speech. Glenn and Stu discuss why this number may be so high: maybe more Republicans watched, or maybe it was just a great, optimistic speech. But many Democrats in Congress and the Legacy Media still deny that Americans gave Trump a mandate to restore America in the 2024 election. So, Glenn and Stu review the data. Plus, they highlight some other big moments during the speech, including Trump’s decision to list out the many, many crazy things that DOGE found our government is funding.

Democrat Representative Al Green was removed from the House of Representatives after repeatedly heckling President Donald Trump during his speech to a joint session of Congress.

On Tuesday, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) repeatedly warned Green (D-Texas) to stop interrupting the 47th president.

“Members are directed to uphold and maintain decorum in the House and to cease any further disruptions. That’s your warning,” Johnson said from the front of the room.

“Members are engaging in willful and continuing breaches of decorum and the chair is prepared to direct the sergeant at arms to restore order to the joint session,” Johnson continued.

“Mr. Green, take your seat,” Johnson warned Green. “Take your seat, sir.”

Johnson then removed the Democrat from the chamber by ordering the Sergeant At Arms to restore order.

Green stood, waving his cane, and shouted, “You don’t have a mandate!” In response, Republicans rose from their seats, drowning him out with chants of “USA.”

Once guards began to remove Green, House Republicans sang “hey, hey, hey, goodbye.”

Since returning to office, Green has called for the impeachment of Trump.

The Insane Spending Spree Congress Doesn’t Want You to Know About

Speaker Mike Johnson has quietly gone back on his word to prevent a massive omnibus spending bill before Christmas. Christopher Bedford, senior editor for politics at Blaze News, says Johnson is particularly squishy when it comes to house negotiations and will relent to lawmakers who don’t want to change their travel plans. Bedford even says Johnson will likely offer concessions to big-spending Democrats since he can’t appease Freedom Caucus members who want to slash government spending.

A former Republican congressional candidate has been charged after allegations of threatening to kill his political opponent in 2021. 

William Braddock has been accused of making the alleged threats on June 8th, 2021, which include threatening to “call up [his] Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to take out his rival, Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.).

Prosecutors stated that the Republican candidate had been caught on audio calling Luna a “dead squirrel” and “a f—ing speed bump in the road.” 

A conservative activist recorded Braddock where he can be heard making threats against Luna.

“I really don’t want to have to end anybody’s life for the good of the people of the United States of America,” he was heard saying in the audio, as reported by Politico.

“That will break my heart. But if it needs to be done, it needs to be done. Luna is a f—ing speed bump in the road. She’s a dead squirrel that you run over every day when you leave the neighborhood.”

Braddock then went on to deny making any threats and insisted that the audio may have been altered. A judge later green-lit a restraining order against him.

After leaving the U.S., Braddock went to the Philippines and was eventually extradited there. The Justice Department said he was charged with one count of interstate transmission of a true threat to injure another person. 

On Thursday, he appeared in federal court in Los Angeles.

After winning the election, Luna was sworn into Congress for the first time in January 2023. 

Luna disclosed earlier this month that a “very serious shooting threat” was received by her office. She was vague about the specifics of the threat due to an ongoing investigation into it by law enforcement.

WATCH: American flags burned in protest of Netanyahu speech to Congress | LiveNOW from FOX

Protesters demonstrating against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu's visit to the US were captured on video setting fire to American flags and vandalizing statues in Washington DC. At least one demonstrator, whose face was covered, was spotted by FOX News carrying what appeared to be the flag of the terrorist group Hamas, while others were heard shouting "Allahu Akbar." At Union Station, agitators burned an American flag and vandalized a Christopher Columbus statue with the words "Hamas is coming." They also took down an American flag and replaced it with the Palestinian flag. Netanyahu delivered an address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday afternoon, his fourth overall speech to Congress, the most of any leader. Rep. Anthony D'Esposito (R-NY) was in attendance for Netanyahu's speech and joined LiveNOW from FOX's Josh Breslow to discuss the address and the fiery protests around the nation's capital.
