On Tuesday night, President Trump delivered the 2026 State of the Union address — the best speech of his entire career according to Glenn Beck.
The address was packed with memorable moments, but one, he says, didn’t merely stand out in Trump’s two-hour speech, it stands out in history itself.
“There was no moment in presidential history in my lifetime that was as strong as [Reagan’s “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" line] — until last night,” he says.
And that moment was when President Trump said: “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens."
“That's the easiest applause line ever presented in American politics. You shouldn't even think; you just stand up. That's not even partisan,” says Glenn.
And yet zero Democrats stood up.
“You don't damage your opponent when you do that. You damage your brand,” exclaims Glenn, adding that he’s unsure if Democrats can “survive the brand damage” they’ve caused themselves.
He brings up two of the people President Trump honored during his speech — the “angel mom” of 16-year-old Lizbeth Medina, who was stabbed numerous times and killed by an illegal alien, and 7-year-old Delilah Coleman, who survived life-altering injuries from a 2024 car crash caused by an illegal alien truck driver with a state-issued CDL.
“Calling for commercial licenses to be denied to illegal immigrants because of [Delilah] and calling it Delilah's Law — and you can't stand for that? You can't clap for removing dangerous rapists and criminals from the country?” Glenn asks in disgust.
“We can disagree on immigration policy all you want. We can debate visa quotas. You can argue about asylum reform. But when you can't stand for deporting violent criminals, that's not a strategy. That's the end of your brand. That's moral confusion,” he says, admitting that he was “stunned by that.”
“America looked at that and went, ‘Do these people hate our country?’”

Between raucous cheers for America's gold-medal hero, New Jersey's new governor felt the brunt of sports fans' disdain.
Fans at the Prudential Center in Newark were treated to a fantastic pregame ceremony on Wednesday that celebrated Jack Hughes, who scored the gold medal-winning goal for Team USA against Canada at the 2026 Winter Olympics on Sunday.
'You guys are making me emotional.'
After a speech from Hughes got the crowd both pumped up and emotional, newly elected New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) and her husband, Jason Hedberg, were welcomed on the ice for the ceremonial puck drop.
After a parade of kids holding American flags adorably stepped onto the ice, the public address announcer welcomed the governor and the state's first gentleman before boos rained down upon them.
Some significant booing was also heard when the governor was again announced as she handed Hughes a folded state flag.
Beforehand, Hughes brought the house down with his speech, first celebrating alongside Buffalo Sabres player and fellow Team USA member Tage Thompson. Hughes brought Thompson onto the ice for a short lap before delivering his heartfelt remarks.

"I'm so proud, and I'm so happy that the men's and women's USA hockey teams brought gold medals back to the United States of America," Hughes said to wild cheers.
As the arena's scoreboard showed a picture of Hughes that read, "The best in the world are made in Jersey," the star forward was on the verge of tears.
"You guys are making me emotional, but I'm so proud to represent the New Jersey Devils organization. And I'm so, so proud to represent the great state of New Jersey. So proud," he continued.
"From the bottom of my heart, all our, all my teammates, USA teammates, we just want to thank you guys for all the love and the support. We feel it. Thank you," the 24-year-old concluded.

Hughes was awarded with a New Jersey state flag, a certificate, and a signing pen in honor of the state's recognition of his accomplishment.
Gov. Sherrill won the 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial election with 56.88% of the vote, beating out Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli by more than five points.
Moderates and independents both sided with Sherrill, according to exit polls, with health care being a strong driver of votes among liberal supporters.

President Donald Trump delivered the State of the Union address Tuesday night, touting his administration's achievements and laying the groundwork for the remaining three years of his term.
While Democrats attempted to distract from Trump's patriotic speech, Republicans embraced policies to improve the lives of everyday Americans, some of whom were in attendance at the State of the Union.
'I want to thank President Trump.'
Tuesday night, members of the Republican Study Committee, the largest conservative committee on Capitol Hill, hosted guests from North Dakota, Arizona, New York, Alabama, and elsewhere. While all of these guests come from different walks of life, the common thread is their appreciation for the president and his America First policies.
In a series of testimonials obtained exclusively by Blaze News, the RSC shows how real Americans feel about Trump's progress in America.
Fifth-generation rancher Ben Menges, who was the guest of Arizona Rep. Juan Ciscomani, laid out the roadblocks he previously encountered on the farm, but noted he was "looking forward to hearing" Trump's plan to address these regulatory burdens.
"We farm and ranch in Arizona because it's the desert, not in spite of the desert. And we're faced with a variety of issues; most of them stem around not having enough water," Menges said. "I've also discussed the issues of federal regulation and how it's impacted my grazing operation."
Retired Command Sergeant Major John Herring, who was the guest of Texas Rep. Monica De La Cruz, praised the tax cuts greenlit in Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act as well as the administration's clampdown on the southern border.
"My wife is a small business owner," Herring said. "We're ranchers in South Texas, retired from the military. President Trump has done a fantastic job of helping us and improving our ways of life. The border security is tremendously better. The tax cuts have been tremendous for us."

Another small business owner, Kristin Chorne, who was the guest of North Dakota Rep. Julie Fedorchak, noted the positive impact Trump's tax reforms have had on her company and her employees.
"I'm representing my business, Gratitude Spa and Salon. We are an all-female-employee business: cosmetologists, aestheticians, massage therapists, nail technicians," Chorne said. "And so, we're super excited about the One Big Beautiful Bill and the no tax on tips portion especially, as well as the no tax on overtime — huge benefits for our employees."
"I've already had several employees come and talk with me, and they're getting anywhere from $2,000 to $10,000 in refunds for 2025, so a big change for them from years past, where they've had to pay in."

Law enforcement was also represented at the State of the Union, including Alabama Rep. Barry Moore's guest, Coffee County Sheriff Scott Byrd, and New York Rep. Claudia Tenney's guest, Wayne County Sheriff Robert Milby. Both Milby and Byrd applauded Trump's crackdown on crime both in the homeland and on the border.
"I've been in the law enforcement business for 23 years, and these border closing is definitely helping our community," Byrd said. "They're slowing the drug trafficking down, which I've obviously seen in my county, in my community."
"I want to thank President Trump for his efforts in supporting law enforcement and making sure that people are held accountable and responsible for their actions, something that we haven't seen in a few years," Milby said. "What we have seen, though, is that people feel less safe, and that's what matters."
"You can do anything you want with statistics, but when people tell me that they don't feel safe because of what is happening with our criminal justice system, it's refreshing to know that we have the support and that we're going to hold people accountable and responsible rather than hold court in the street," he continued.

Rep. Ilhan Omar's attempts on Tuesday to sabotage President Donald Trump's State of the Union did not go particularly well.
Not only did public support for the president's agenda reportedly spike while the Minnesota Democrat was screaming during his speech, but Omar's anti-ICE guest was hauled away by U.S. Capitol Police.
'All State of the Union tickets clearly explain that demonstrating is prohibited.'
The Somali-born ethno-nationalist announced on Monday that among the radicals she was bringing as guests to the SOTU was Aliya Rahman, an autistic non-straight activist who, though born in America, grew up in Bangladesh and has championed leftist causes since returning to the United States.
Omar made no secret that she chose to bring Rahman because of the woman's hostility toward U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, noting that "Rahman is now calling for ICE to face legal accountability for their aggression against civilians."
Trouble with the lawRahman, 43, was arrested in Minneapolis on Jan. 13 after allegedly impeding federal law enforcement agents by blocking traffic with her vehicle.
While later claiming that she was on her way to a doctor's appointment and was seeking to avoid a chaotic scene, footage appears to show that Rahman wasn't in a rush to go anywhere. Despite ample room to drive forward and away from the scene, she appears to be idling in the intersection, blocking traffic, and yelling at federal agents.
Footage also shows Rahman failing to comply with repeated orders before being pulled out of the vehicle and carted away.

The Department of Homeland Security noted that the radical "clearly had enough room to move herself and her vehicle out of the way. Officers even walked away from her vehicle, thinking she was going to leave the scene."
"Instead, she remained at the location, continued to impede our officers, and found out the hard way," continued the DHS. "18 U.S.C. § 111 criminalizes impeding or interfering with federal officers."
Rahman — who has likened herself to George Floyd as well as to Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, an illegal alien who was fatally shot on Sept. 12 after reportedly driving his vehicle into an ICE officer — quickly became a symbol of supposed ICE brutality for Democratic lawmakers, including Sens. Amy Klobuchar (Minn.) and Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) and Reps. Robert Garcia (Calif.) and Yassamin Ansari (Ariz.).
Another arrestOmar complained on Wednesday that Rahman had yet another arrest, this time after a run-in with the Capitol Police on Tuesday.
"My guest, Aliya Rahman, stood up silently in the gallery during the president’s speech for a short period of time, part of which other guests were also standing," alleged Omar. "For that, she was forcibly removed, despite warning officers about her injured shoulders and ultimately charged with 'Unlawful Conduct.'"
Rahman reportedly stood up in protest during the part of President Donald Trump's speech where he called on Democrats to restore DHS funding and allegedly refused to sit when asked by police.
"The heavy-handed response to a peaceful guest sends a chilling message about the state of our democracy," added the Minnesota Democrat.
Rahman told Democracy Now! on Wednesday, "The only reason I can think that they thought me standing silently there was a protest is because this point, my body, unafraid, even if broken, standing and looking at these people in their face, well that must be a protest to you."
The radical claimed that the sergeant at arms told her she was being detained for "standing up silently. No buttons, no facial expressions, no gestures, no signs. Not one sound. Standing up."
Capitol Police painted a different picture of the scene, noting in a statement obtained by CNN, "All State of the Union tickets clearly explain that demonstrating is prohibited."
"At approximately 10:07 p.m., a person in the House Gallery started demonstrating during tonight's State of the Union Address," continued the statement. "The guest was told to sit down, but refused to obey our lawful orders."
The Capitol Police added that "it is illegal to disrupt the Congress and demonstrate in the Congressional Buildings, so 43-year-old Aliya M. Rahman of Minneapolis, MN, was arrested for D.C. Code §10-503.16 - Unlawful Conduct, Disruption of Congress."
