Best of the Program | Guests: Eva Vlaardingerbroek & Liz Truss | 5/14/26

The episode of The Glenn Beck Program features a powerful discussion on institutional trust, free speech, and the erosion of national identity in Western democracies, anchored by interviews with former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss and Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek. Truss delivers a stark assessment of the UK’s decline, citing financial instability, failed immigration and energy policies, and a growing disconnect between elites in London and the struggling working class in northern towns. She warns that the UK is on the brink of a crisis, with a government increasingly suppressing dissent through hate crime laws, banning critics, and using facial recognition to target political rallies. Eva Vlaardingerbroek shares her experience of being banned from entering the UK after criticizing Prime Minister Keir Starmer, illustrating how free speech is under siege across Europe. Both guests argue that a globalist 'Great Reset' agenda is undermining national sovereignty, eroding cultural identity, and replacing democratic accountability with unelected bureaucracies. Glenn Beck frames the core issue not as partisan politics, but as a fundamental crisis of truth, principle, and the courage to admit being wrong—a challenge to modern society’s tribalism and fear of uncertainty.
