I know that doesn\u2019t mean anything, but follow me on this. Right now, the United States is looking at a hemisphere and a hemisphere problem that most Americans still don\u2019t fully understand or see,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Donald Trump was running for re-election, we were standing backstage someplace, and he was getting ready to go on. He said, \u2018You want to look like a prophet? You know what you need to talk about? You just keep talking about Panama,\u201d\u2019 he recounts, noting that Trump\u2019s words were deeply confusing to him at the time.<\/p>\n<p>However, shortly after the election, the president sure enough divulged intentions to take back the Panama Canal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe understood what was happening with Panama and China. China had taken the entire Panama Canal and was controlling it,\u201d Glenn says.<\/p>\n<p>The Panama plans were soon followed by talk of Greenland, then Venezuela, Cuba, cartels in Mexico and Central America, Russia in Caracas, and Iranian proxies in the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe southern hemisphere has become the new front line of great power competition. [President Trump] is declaring the western hemisphere is ours, OK? And DHS, the Department of <em><em>Homeland<\/em><\/em> Security, was not designed for that,\u201d Glenn says.<\/p>\n<p>What Trump is up against, he explains, is \u201chemisphere-level instability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have the migration waves. We have state collapse. We have cartels that are moving people and drugs and weapons and intelligence. We have foreign adversaries embedding themselves inside of all of that chaos,\u201d Glenn explains. \u201cSo if you\u2019re the president &#8230; you\u2019re saying, \u2018We have got to shore up America to make sure we last another 150, 250 years.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps Noem\u2019s reassignment has more to do with this: \u201c[making] sure that our darkest, Russia, China, Iran, are not running operations in this hemisphere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShield of the Americas. Think about the name. It\u2019s not border control; it\u2019s not immigration enforcement. It\u2019s a shield of the Americas, the entire western hemisphere,\u201d Glenn says. \u201cThat doesn\u2019t sound like DHS. That sounds more like strategic security architecture for the western hemisphere, doesn<strong\/>\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To hear more of his theory on Kristi Noem\u2019s reassignment, watch the video above.<\/p>\n<h2>Want more from Glenn Beck?<\/h2>\n<p>To enjoy more of Glenn\u2019s masterful storytelling, thought-provoking analysis, and uncanny ability to make sense of the chaos, <a href=\"https:\/\/get.blazetv.com\/glenn\/?utm_source=theblaze&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=article_shortcode_glennbeck\" target=\"_blank\">subscribe to BlazeTV<\/a> \u2014 the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, President Trump announced that Kristi Noem would be replaced as Secretary of Homeland Security by Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) and reassigned to the newly created position of Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. \u201cLet me translate what this usually means in Washington and may mean this time,\u201d Glenn Beck says. \u201cWhen [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4767,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4766","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-conservative-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4766\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
