Common questions

Is Glenn Beck left or right?
Beck is a veteran conservative broadcaster who founded Blaze Media after leaving Fox News in 2011, and today sits in the pro-Trump conservative mainstream with a distinctive style heavy on historical and religious framing. His trajectory is notable: in January 2016 he endorsed Ted Cruz and sharply criticized Trump — calling him an egomaniac — and he continued to oppose Trump through the 2016 general election, but by 2018 he announced he would support Trump in 2020 and has backed him since, landing a White House interview with President Trump in April 2025. In October 2025 he recounted on air that FBI agents had visited his home to discuss Antifa, a visit he described as the bureau seeking his input. As of 2026 he still anchors his nationally syndicated radio program and BlazeTV shows, and in January 2026 launched the Torch, an American-history archive and education project he has called the final step of his career.
