00:00:00.120 What did you get from today's podcast? I mean, besides the best Trump coverage of all.
00:00:06.720 Oh, yeah. I mean, his actual attorney. Yeah. And Alan Dershowitz.
00:00:09.820 Yeah. I mean, it was great. You'll understand this case six ways to Sunday.
00:00:13.880 Also, I feel like you have a stance on whether kids should be served up porn in schools.
00:00:21.240 And I think you caught that from today. Yeah, I think my my take on on your commentary was that you're on the fence.
00:00:28.100 You're not sure whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. And you're considering all options.
00:00:32.340 But all options. Who knows which way you could land? But you're right there making a decision.
00:00:37.440 Yeah. Kind of a call to action. Yeah. Because something that happened in a red state that will blow you blow your mind.
00:00:46.140 Unfortunately, it'll blow your mind. It shouldn't. If you think you're safe in a red state, you're absolutely not.
00:00:52.680 And you've got to start standing for the people who are standing up for our children, because the teachers union is doing it with money.
00:01:01.340 And these money grubbing Republicans take it and they sell your child down the river.
00:01:08.020 I'm sorry. Do I sound too opinionated?
00:01:10.060 You're all you. I can't tell which way you're going on it.

00:01:26.100 Today, I'll give you the news of what China did yesterday to devalue our dollar yet again.
00:01:31.120 Things are not good. And we rely on China for critical antibiotics.
00:01:39.460 Seventy two percent of our acts of our active pharmaceutical ingredients are coming from other countries in China.

00:02:37.040 Here's a podcast.
00:02:45.500 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:50.240 Donald Trump's campaigned fundraising is breaking records thanks to a lavish fundraiser hosted by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and the Democratic Party.
00:03:02.840 This according to the Babylon Bee.
00:03:06.000 Sources say that as Trump arrived at the New York courthouse for a fundraiser yesterday morning, his campaign raised millions of dollars from energized citizens eager to support the only presidential candidate indicted by a Soros-funded DA.
00:03:20.800 Quote, at this point, if someone hasn't been indicted by a corrupt Soros DA, can you even trust that person, said local Trump voter.
00:03:31.320 Experts say Trump's indictment will firm up his base of supporters who believe the country is run by corrupt, out-of-touch bureaucrats who also happen to be satanic pedophiles and alienate him with kooky conspiracy theorists who think that America's leaders can be trusted.
00:03:47.400 At publishing time, it had been revealed that half of the donations to the Trump campaign came from Democratic activists who are desperately hoping he runs again.
00:03:56.240 You know, we are defined now by our enemies.
00:04:01.400 This is a time where, where it is a badge of honor.
00:04:04.100 Oh, the school board hates you.
00:04:06.100 Oh.
00:04:07.200 The school librarian thinks that you're a Nazi.
00:04:10.160 Oh, boy.
00:04:11.960 Congratulations.
00:04:13.440 Congratulations.
00:04:14.600 Oh, the New York DA hates you.
00:04:17.320 You've, by pointing that out, you've been called an anti-Semite?
00:04:21.700 Congratulations.
00:04:22.720 Yeah.
00:04:23.760 Congratulations.
00:04:25.020 Sincerely.
00:04:25.400 There's something to that.
00:04:26.160 I mean, I know Babylon Bee is a satire site, but like, you kind of like, if, if, if a Soros-funded DA came out and said, you know what?
00:04:33.540 We looked at Ron DeSantis and, ah, totally clean, clean as a whistle.
00:04:37.340 Go ahead and feel confident voting for him.
00:04:39.100 I'd be very nervous.
00:04:40.320 I'd be very nervous.
00:04:41.660 Very, I'd be like, what's up with that?
00:04:43.580 Yeah.
00:04:44.020 He's in bed.
00:04:45.540 Um, all right.
00:04:46.440 Let me tell you what happened yesterday, and I'm going to use it by substituting Stu for Donald Trump.
00:04:52.620 Um, here's what happened yesterday in court.
00:04:55.800 In the attempt to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:00.000 In the attempt of, uh, in the attempt of covering up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:05.640 In the attempt to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:10.720 Now, also, I'd like to say that in the attempt to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:17.700 But I'm not done.
00:05:19.440 In the attempt to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:25.160 Wait, but what crime was I trying to cover?
00:05:27.300 Great question, Stu!
00:05:28.960 Yeah, thank you.
00:05:29.520 I wasn't even done.
00:05:30.620 I have 35 of those charges, okay?
00:05:33.300 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:05:33.540 And they're all very different.
00:05:35.500 Uh, let me just skip to 28.
00:05:37.280 In the attempt to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime.
00:05:40.200 Wait, what crime?
00:05:41.380 Yeah, okay, that's exactly what I would expect somebody who hates George Soros to say.
00:05:47.520 Okay?
00:05:48.300 That's what happened yesterday.
00:05:49.980 Yeah.
00:05:50.280 He didn't even tell us what the crime was.
00:05:51.920 What is the crime?
00:05:53.580 What is the crime?
00:05:54.640 He only told us what crime he supposedly committed when he was covering up the crime that he would
00:05:59.140 not tell us what it was.
00:06:00.580 Correct.
00:06:01.380 Which is amazing.
00:06:02.220 We would like to define the crime, please.
00:06:05.760 Could you define the crime?
00:06:09.760 Now, uh, some people say it's a campaign finance, uh, crime.
00:06:13.880 Well, is it?
00:06:14.680 Because the FEC turned it down.
00:06:17.120 The feds turned it down.
00:06:18.500 Even the corrupt Justice Department turned this down.
00:06:20.980 But you picked it up, and that's a federal crime.
00:06:23.380 Unless, somehow or another, in Alvin Bragg's head, well, states, you gotta go to the Constitution
00:06:30.120 for this one, so I know this definitely did not happen.
00:06:33.140 States are in charge of the vote and the election, so states should be the one.
00:06:39.560 Really?
00:06:40.040 It's still a federal crime, though.
00:06:41.540 Still a federal crime.
00:06:42.160 So that would not make any sense.
00:06:43.600 They know they have nothing on that.
00:06:44.960 Well, it's a tax crime.
00:06:46.640 The tax crime was my favorite.
00:06:48.200 Yeah, tax crime.
00:06:49.300 How is it a tax crime?
00:06:51.000 Wait a minute.
00:06:51.520 Wait a minute.
00:06:51.860 Wait a minute.
00:06:53.760 I've heard you should pay your fair share.
00:06:56.360 And I've even heard it's patriotic to pay your fair share.
00:06:59.980 And we've heard for years and years that Donald Trump will not pay his fair share.
00:07:03.760 He will not pay his fair share.
00:07:04.340 He will not pay his taxes, this guy.
00:07:05.640 So this is apparently the tax crime.
00:07:08.080 He paid more taxes by paying Cohen all of the, quote, bribe, which wasn't bribe.
00:07:21.580 He paid that as income back to him.
00:07:25.060 So he actually paid more taxes than he should have.
00:07:30.480 This guy that they've been begging for him to release his tax records for the entire time he's been in public, in the public eye, just so they could prove that he does not pay his taxes, have now tried to put him in prison for paying too much taxes.
00:07:43.980 Legitimately what happened yesterday.
00:07:45.240 It was those, it was the payment of those extra taxes that was the attempt to cover up the crime.
00:07:51.300 Yeah.
00:07:51.680 That's what they're trying to say.
00:07:52.700 And if you don't know this, this, what happened in the situation, Cohen paid $130,000 to good old Stormy.
00:08:00.080 And then the, I mean, who hasn't?
00:08:02.200 Who hasn't?
00:08:02.800 Look, she's expensive apparently.
00:08:04.140 Right.
00:08:04.400 And so then to reimburse Cohen, instead of giving him $130,000, which would have been in a reimbursement for an expenditure, but would have had to been, you know, their accusation is it would have had to been, you know, recorded in a certain way that may give away that they paid off a porn star.
00:08:22.700 So instead what they did is they paid him a salary of, I think it was around $400,000.
00:08:30.220 And the thought there was, you give him basically double the money so he can pay taxes and still maintain the amount he gave to Stormy Daniels.
00:08:39.920 So they didn't want to give him the exact amount.
00:08:41.600 They gave him more than that.
00:08:42.540 And they gave him a bonus on top of that, I think of $60,000 just for, I guess, good tidings.
00:08:47.780 So that's basically what they're saying is that because he was actually not giving him a payment for work done, instead they were just repaying him for the expenditure that they shouldn't have overpaid him because that man, too many dollars went to taxes.
00:09:06.860 That is legitimately what they are trying to get him on.
00:09:10.340 Too many dollars.
00:09:11.540 Too much in taxes.
00:09:14.640 I mean, this is, I didn't think there would be anything here.
00:09:18.820 We said it before.
00:09:19.980 Right.
00:09:20.540 No, this is less than we thought.
00:09:22.420 We said over and over again, we haven't actually seen the indictment.
00:09:25.160 We haven't seen the charges and we hold out, you know, maybe they have something that we have to see.
00:09:29.400 Well, they do.
00:09:30.520 In the attempt to cover up a crime, Trump committed a crime.
00:09:34.020 But no, he didn't.
00:09:35.640 Right.
00:09:35.840 Like, and not to mention, even if he did, it's past the statute of limitations.
00:09:40.320 Let me explain it more clearly for you.
00:09:43.060 In the attempt to cover up a crime, which we don't know about, he paid too many taxes.
00:09:52.920 Okay.
00:09:54.040 Now, how do you feel, America?
00:09:56.000 Now, how do you feel?
00:09:56.660 Now, for those of you who might think, well, this is a Soros DA, and are we going to be able to get justice?
00:10:04.080 I just want you to know, the judicial system is fair and honorable and honest.
00:10:11.180 Let me tell you a little bit about the judge.
00:10:14.080 Now, you might have heard Donald Trump say, well, this judge is against me.
00:10:18.060 And you're like, okay.
00:10:20.380 What?
00:10:20.840 He didn't vote for you?
00:10:22.600 Is that how he's against you?
00:10:24.580 No, no, uh-uh.
00:10:27.760 According to the FEC, you know, the people, the Federal Elections Commission, the ones who decided not to prosecute Donald Trump because they didn't find a crime,
00:10:38.500 the judge donated three times to Act Blue in the summer of 2020.
00:10:44.140 Now, if you don't know what Act Blue is, congratulations, you're not part of the alliance for the Dark Lords and the Siths.
00:10:55.940 Okay?
00:10:56.560 Act Blue is the funder or the mechanism that all of the laundered money goes through, you know, for progressive things.
00:11:08.960 So, he has donated three times to Act Blue in the summer of 2020, once on July 26, when the judge's donation, according to the FEC, was earmarked for President Joe Biden's 2020 presidential campaign.
00:11:23.060 The other two contributions were pledged to the Progressive Turnout Project.
00:11:28.900 This is a left-wing pact that rallies voter turnout for Democratic candidates.
00:11:34.340 And Stop Republicans.
00:11:37.580 Now, that doesn't sound partisan at all.
00:11:42.400 So, he's funding, quote, Stop Republicans, which their whole thing is dedicated, quote, to resisting Trump and the Republican Party.
00:11:55.380 But it doesn't stop there.
00:11:58.320 No.
00:11:59.220 His daughter, Lauren, previously worked for Kamala Harris.
00:12:04.460 Now, she was part of the failed 2020 presidential campaign.
00:12:09.660 So, I don't know if we say she's just a partisan hack or just stupid.
00:12:16.060 I mean, who worked on that campaign?
00:12:19.940 She is now the president of a consulting company that proudly lists the Biden-Harris campaign as its client.
00:12:28.820 It's just.
00:12:30.080 Oh, my gosh.
00:12:31.300 You can't make it up.
00:12:32.380 You can't make this up.
00:12:33.860 You can't make this up.
00:12:35.580 So, she went to SUNY, the college, the crazy liberal Cloward and Piven College in New York.
00:12:45.880 She has now deleted her LinkedIn page, which listed her pronouns, confirmed she graduated from SUNY in 2011.
00:12:56.560 And the account also showed in 2019, she worked as the director of digital persuasion for Kamala Harris for the people.
00:13:06.400 Digital persuasion.
00:13:08.160 Wow.
00:13:09.160 Wow.
00:13:10.040 What a euphemism.
00:13:12.240 That sounds like propaganda or brainwashing.
00:13:17.660 Currently, she serves as president of Authentic Campaigns, a consulting digital advertiser.
00:13:23.800 Now, you go from digital persuasion to authentic campaigns.
00:13:29.940 Oh, yeah, there's no psychosis there.
00:13:34.860 There's no split personality there unless they're doing exactly the same thing.
00:13:39.560 This is an online fundraising agency that's raised $250 million for progressive campaigns.
00:13:46.380 Could I just ask, do we have any things like this that I've never heard of?
00:13:51.320 You know, I've never heard of authentic campaigns before, and they've raised $250 million.
00:13:58.420 Do we have anything like that?
00:13:59.940 Like, do we have, like, you know, John Adams for sticking it up their butt?
00:14:05.820 Do we have that packed or anything?
00:14:08.020 It's .com, yes.
00:14:09.320 .com, okay.
00:14:10.260 For sticking it up their butt.
00:14:11.480 Okay.
00:14:12.320 They raised $250.
00:14:13.520 A video of Smiling Harris being greeted by a crowd of supporters is the autoplay on the site's landing page.
00:14:21.320 Also, Biden-Harris campaign logo is at the top of its client roster.
00:14:26.720 Authentic campaigns have won a collection of accolades mostly for its work on the Harris campaign,
00:14:32.380 while Lauren was awarded the coveted 2020 Rising Star title,
00:14:37.260 considered one of the most prestigious honors in the campaign world.
00:14:41.600 Whoa.
00:14:43.240 The president of Authentic campaigns is Lauren Merchant.
00:14:49.040 Wow.
00:14:50.780 That's the daughter of the judge.
00:14:54.140 In a pair of Truth Social posts, Trump said, yeah, he's a highly partisan judge that hates him.
00:15:01.580 I don't think that goes far enough, Don.
00:15:05.340 I don't think that goes far enough.
00:15:07.000 This is clearly a partisan political move, and the judge is bought and paid for.
00:15:17.440 I don't know how you don't get at least him to recuse himself or a change of venue, but I don't think you will.
00:15:26.960 Now, here's the extra super special part.
00:15:29.640 Alvin, you know him.
00:15:32.220 One of the chipmunks also now running the New York DA.
00:15:37.920 Alvin, I'm just thinking, there's a parody song in there someplace with all the crime going on and somebody just going,
00:15:46.440 Alvin!
00:15:48.400 Anyway, Alvin is making sure that all this is on the up and up,
00:15:56.980 and so the next time the court will meet on this subject is January of 24.
00:16:04.100 Now, they're telling him early because, you know, the Iowa caucus is happening in January of 24.
00:16:12.520 If this isn't so obvious of what's going on, they clearly want Donald Trump to be the candidate.
00:16:23.500 They clearly want him to be the candidate.
00:16:25.980 They also clearly don't want him to be the candidate.
00:16:29.680 This is why I always say, you know, don't play these little games.
00:16:36.080 Don't, don't, don't, don't play these little games.
00:16:37.960 Just do the next right thing.
00:16:40.440 Because the last time they played this little game, and they were like, we'll outsmart them.
00:16:46.180 We'll show America how stupid he is.
00:16:49.360 We'll put Trump wall-to-wall coverage.
00:16:53.000 Didn't work out as you thought it would.
00:16:55.520 I have a feeling this might not work out the way you think it will either.
00:17:03.040 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.
00:17:09.940 Let me tell you, last hour in the podcast, I gave you this guy's credentials.
00:17:15.540 He is, just to save time, one of the most respected high-stakes trial attorneys in America,
00:17:20.980 Joe Takapina, and he joins us now.
00:17:25.640 Joe, thank you so much for coming on.
00:17:28.340 Thanks, Glenn.
00:17:29.420 I'll tell you off the bat, I don't think I'm going to be able to help you.
00:17:32.180 I heard you say, maybe I can help you figure out this.
00:17:34.760 I can't, I can't help you at all.
00:17:37.080 I really, I can't figure it out for the life of myself.
00:17:39.200 Okay, so is this a, when he was charged with, what, 34, 35 felonies, it's the same charge.
00:17:45.560 I said to the audience this morning, it's like if I said about my producer, that in attempt
00:17:52.120 to cover up a crime, Stu committed a crime, and saying that 35 times, and never defining
00:17:58.160 what the crime was.
00:17:59.140 Boy, that's a pretty great assessment of this charging instrument, I will tell you that.
00:18:06.140 I mean, never saying what the crime was.
00:18:08.020 So, you know, look, there's no legal requirement to do that.
00:18:10.200 They charge, you know, this is a misdemeanor, false sign business records, which Glenn, he
00:18:15.000 didn't, it's not even close to happening.
00:18:17.620 There's no false sign business records, but even if you want to go down that road, it's
00:18:21.580 a misdemeanor, the statute of limitations are long gone on that.
00:18:24.080 You would have to then cobble that together with another crime, which would also be a misdemeanor.
00:18:29.140 Um, to, to make it a felony.
00:18:30.980 So in other words, to aid in a bed or conceal another crime.
00:18:34.220 And of course, it doesn't list what the other crime was.
00:18:36.100 Maybe it's drunk driving or something, who knows?
00:18:37.980 But, but most likely it's violation of federal election laws, because this was a federal,
00:18:42.600 federal campaign.
00:18:44.180 And if you know anything about federal election laws, and apparently that office doesn't,
00:18:48.480 um, it's very clear that this is not something that falls under a violation of the federal
00:18:53.560 election commission's laws.
00:18:55.460 It's just not.
00:18:56.120 And that's why they never brought charges against them.
00:18:59.140 You know, that's why they, I mean, this is a personal expenditure, personal civil suit
00:19:03.680 that was settled, you know, like, you know, when Bill Clinton paid, uh, Paula Jones, $800,000
00:19:09.020 for an alleged sexual assault, not like a consensual relationship.
00:19:12.760 Um, that was the same thing, but never was that, was he, you know, charged with crime.
00:19:17.660 Hillary Clinton apparently, you know, spent a hundred plus thousand dollars on the steel
00:19:21.420 dossier, right.
00:19:22.580 For her campaign.
00:19:23.380 She used campaign money for that, that campaign used campaign money for that.
00:19:27.740 And you know what they classify it as?
00:19:29.760 This is going to be as ironic as anything, legal expenses, which obviously it wasn't.
00:19:35.140 But so what does the FEC do?
00:19:36.840 She doesn't get indicted like Donald Trump does.
00:19:38.960 She paid a fine of a hundred thousand dollars, um, you know, her campaign.
00:19:42.020 So it's really, the double standards are so, so incredibly obvious to anyone with a brain.
00:19:50.120 And, and the fact that we're here is only because this man's running for president again,
00:19:55.340 it happens to be the leading Republican center.
00:19:57.520 And because he's Donald J.
00:19:59.360 Trump, that's the only reason.
00:20:00.840 Okay.
00:20:01.000 So, so let me just tick off a couple of quick questions here and see if you can help me
00:20:06.280 answer, um, uh, with campaign finance, is it the FEC turned past this down?
00:20:13.680 So there was nothing there.
00:20:14.700 So is it possible that, you know, they're checking the constitution and, and Bragg is like,
00:20:20.260 wait a minute, we're the ones that actually run the, the elections, the state owns it.
00:20:26.080 And so he's coming up with some state campaign violation.
00:20:31.000 Yeah, it's not a state campaign, but even if he did identify it, say what you're talking
00:20:36.620 about, because we have no, we should be left guessing at this point.
00:20:39.320 And here's the bottom line, regardless of whatever the, the, you know, twisted legal
00:20:46.700 theory is, there is no crime.
00:20:49.180 Okay.
00:20:49.500 You know, Donald Trump actually did everything right here.
00:20:51.720 Here's someone who came to him, tried to extort money from him.
00:20:54.480 Okay.
00:20:54.820 For a consensual relationship, she claims, I'll go over the later.
00:20:57.700 She said she never had an affair with him and Donald Trump had him.
00:20:59.680 I'm going to deny it, but then said, I need that money or I go to the press.
00:21:03.680 Okay.
00:21:04.140 That's extortion one-on-one.
00:21:05.960 Then, then he pays that money with personal funds to resolve it.
00:21:11.100 And by the way, he only did that after his lawyer, the convicted fraudster and liar, Michael
00:21:15.940 Cohen, resolved this without president Trump's knowledge at first.
00:21:19.360 He took out a loan, a home equity loan to finance this, this civil settlement.
00:21:26.160 And then, and then later build Donald Trump for it.
00:21:29.520 He's the one who signed the settlement agreement.
00:21:31.240 Donald Trump didn't even sign this agreement with Stormy Daniels.
00:21:33.420 Okay.
00:21:33.780 And then later did.
00:21:34.780 And that's just to appease and get closer to Donald Trump.
00:21:37.320 He wants to be in the white house in the worst way.
00:21:38.840 Okay.
00:21:39.260 So, so let me go to the crime then that they say, the other thing they're throwing around
00:21:43.920 is this a tax crime.
00:21:45.560 And what they're claiming is, if I understand, you haven't heard that one yet?
00:21:51.140 I've heard about it.
00:21:52.140 Go ahead.
00:21:52.520 Let me hear what that is.
00:21:53.260 From what I understand, they're saying that Donald Trump, I think, overpaid his taxes because
00:22:00.720 he paid attorney's fees to Cohen, and that included the, whatever it was, $130,000 or whatever
00:22:09.660 that payoff was.
00:22:11.020 Paid him in a retainer instead of paying him a reimbursement for the payment.
00:22:17.300 So he actually paid, you know, payroll taxes or, you know, paid the, you know, the, the taxes
00:22:23.380 that you would pay if you're, you know, if you're paying an employee.
00:22:28.820 So, Glenn, I know how smart you are, and I'm a big fan of yours.
00:22:31.920 Do you understand how much you stuttered during that?
00:22:34.700 Oh, no, there's no way to make sense of it.
00:22:36.540 I'm just trying to give, I'm just trying to understand what they're saying.
00:22:39.940 Right, exactly.
00:22:40.800 It's hard.
00:22:41.320 I know, I know, I know.
00:22:42.200 It's so hard to even articulate it because it's like, what?
00:22:45.060 Here's, let me just say this.
00:22:46.220 He never made a tax filing with those documents that they claim are false because he never
00:22:50.460 took a tax deduction.
00:22:52.140 So, again, we live in a serious way.
00:22:55.000 We talk about selective prosecution.
00:22:56.340 If they're going to actually allege he, he actually overpaid taxes for someone else,
00:23:03.700 therefore, it's a tax crime.
00:23:05.240 A lot of people in this country get charged with crimes for overpaying their taxes.
00:23:10.140 Yeah.
00:23:10.440 I mean, yeah, that's another legal theory.
00:23:12.980 Right.
00:23:13.360 Very novel.
00:23:13.860 I mean, it's just, it just gets better and better and better, truly.
00:23:16.960 Okay.
00:23:17.420 But, you know, it's a joke.
00:23:18.500 So, this would be a joke if I thought we could get fair trials.
00:23:24.300 But I'm not sure you can get a fair trial in New York.
00:23:28.420 He has been, he, Donald Trump is the worst.
00:23:31.380 He went from the king of New York to the worst, you know, worse than Hitler and Mengele combined
00:23:38.720 to New Yorkers in New York City.
00:23:42.120 Plus, you have a judge that should have recused himself.
00:23:45.840 I mean, the actual information on the judge and his daughter is staggering.
00:23:52.080 Can he be, can you get a change of venue or at least a new judge?
00:23:58.780 Look, here's the thing.
00:24:00.160 We are going to be making ferocious motions in this case.
00:24:04.300 They're going to cover every angle to get this ridiculous case thrown out of court.
00:24:09.320 It doesn't belong in court.
00:24:10.220 We are going to obviously consider whatever legal motions, including recusal, change of
00:24:14.720 venue, if they're appropriate.
00:24:16.380 You know, look.
00:24:17.560 Isn't it appropriate, don't you think, the recusal of the judge?
00:24:20.640 I mean, that's a conflict of interest.
00:24:23.340 Crazy.
00:24:24.240 You would think.
00:24:25.940 And these facts came out, you know, yesterday.
00:24:28.600 Yeah.
00:24:28.960 Apparently, his daughter works for the vice president.
00:24:32.240 But, again, we have to be very methodical in our attacks here.
00:24:39.140 We don't want to do anything with a knee-jerk reaction.
00:24:41.620 We don't want to make emotional decisions.
00:24:43.200 And we'll do all the research and everything we need to do.
00:24:46.460 We have, obviously, several months to make these motions.
00:24:49.760 And we're going to take our time and do them right because you have one bite at this
00:24:52.260 apple.
00:24:52.860 And there is no scenario where, you know, we're going to miss anything.
00:24:56.280 And any angle that we can take that legitimizes our legal attacks on this case, I know it's
00:25:02.720 going to be successful.
00:25:04.020 I don't think this case is ever going to see a jury, Glenn.
00:25:06.060 I really don't.
00:25:06.680 You shouldn't see a jury, you know, but we would need to have intellectually honest judges
00:25:13.260 to make sure that that happens.
00:25:14.660 And I'm hopeful that we're going to have one here.
00:25:16.780 I talked to Andy McCarthy yesterday, former prosecutor.
00:25:20.700 And he said, you always know it's a weak case when you start to repeat the same charges
00:25:27.680 and you just keep stacking them on.
00:25:31.000 He said, that's the first thing that you were taught in law school.
00:25:33.780 Don't do that.
00:25:34.340 That's crazy.
00:25:35.840 Yeah.
00:25:36.040 Have you ever seen the same charge 34, 35 times?
00:25:40.380 Is this unprecedented or not?
00:25:43.460 No, it's not really unprecedented, but it is a sign.
00:25:46.180 I agree with Andy.
00:25:46.820 It's a sign of weakness.
00:25:48.320 I mean, there's been several indictments where they stack up charges.
00:25:51.740 I mean, it's one act.
00:25:53.180 It's one scenario.
00:25:54.460 It's one factual scenario that they're alleging is a crime that is not a crime.
00:25:59.380 I understand if Donald Trump, if this were truly a campaign expenditure, okay, Donald
00:26:06.740 Trump would have then had the right to pay with campaign funds because it would have been
00:26:10.560 a campaign expenditure, right?
00:26:12.760 It's not.
00:26:13.300 And he couldn't have paid with campaign funds.
00:26:14.860 But do you, Glenn, for a second, understand the amount of people that will be paying for
00:26:20.340 Donald Trump's scalp had he paid this personal settlement with campaign funds?
00:26:26.760 Oh, my gosh.
00:26:27.260 I mean, they would be losing their mind.
00:26:29.040 They were saying, that's a fraud.
00:26:31.140 It's not a campaign expense.
00:26:32.480 It's a personal.
00:26:33.460 So he was damned if he did, damned if he did.
00:26:36.000 Correct.
00:26:37.260 They pushed the next, I guess the next trial date is January 24, right smack in the middle
00:26:43.620 of the Iowa caucus.
00:26:47.180 Is that unprecedented to wait that long?
00:26:49.800 That was just a coincidence.
00:26:50.840 That was just a coincidence, I'm sure.
00:26:52.520 Right.
00:26:53.140 I'm sure of it.
00:26:53.680 I'm sure of it.
00:26:54.460 Well, no, it's not.
00:26:55.520 It actually, it should be longer.
00:26:57.820 You know, when you have a case of this complexity and this, you know, sort of a case of first
00:27:03.140 impression in many ways, you know, what I will say is this.
00:27:07.340 We have a situation where we have to do motion.
00:27:11.100 We're not back in court until December 4th.
00:27:12.580 So there should be no trial in January.
00:27:14.140 We want the trial date to be pushed off even a little further because we have to make sure
00:27:19.100 we're touching every base here and fighting on every legal point that we could bring forth
00:27:26.880 to challenge the sufficiency of this indictment.
00:27:28.880 So there's no rush to get to trial here.
00:27:31.300 But again, I'm hopeful that we don't even get to that point.
00:27:33.920 I really am.
00:27:34.900 But no, it's, you know, a trial doesn't normally happen within a couple of months.
00:27:38.720 This is a case where we don't even go back to court for our next status conference and
00:27:42.920 decisions on motions until December.
00:27:44.560 I have to ask you this question because I've had a very good legal firm for quite some
00:27:50.180 time and they were the best on freedom of speech issues.
00:27:53.960 And they've dropped me because, you know, they have Google and everybody else.
00:27:58.800 And while they didn't say that, they just said, you know, we've got some other clients
00:28:03.180 and we're just have to really I've been with them for 15 years.
00:28:06.300 I know exactly what was going on you.
00:28:10.100 I'm in reading, you know, your history.
00:28:12.820 You're an amazing attorney.
00:28:15.300 But this is let me ask this question.
00:28:20.920 Humanitarian of the Year, Reverend Al Sharpton's National Action Network, Man of the Year Award
00:28:25.920 from New York State Commission for Social Justice.
00:28:28.620 You are positioned in a place where a New York attorney probably should be.
00:28:37.240 You're taking on the enemy, Donald Trump, as your client.
00:28:43.800 Are you not concerned?
00:28:46.100 I mean, thank you for being John Adams.
00:28:48.080 But are you not concerned about flushing your career down the toilet in New York?
00:28:55.040 No, no, no, no.
00:28:56.200 That's listen.
00:28:56.920 I follow my own constitution.
00:28:58.620 My knees don't buckle, Glenn.
00:29:00.460 I do what I think is right.
00:29:03.320 When I took this case, it's because I realized how outrageous it was.
00:29:06.720 And the rule of law is a danger in this country.
00:29:09.180 And for me, if I didn't have the courage to take this case, then I'm good for nothing.
00:29:15.120 If you can't be willing to fight something like this.
00:29:17.720 And listen, for that exact reason, I'm not in one of those big corporate law firms where,
00:29:22.800 you know, I mean, I know a lot of firms were in touch just because they were worried about
00:29:25.740 the fallout with other clients.
00:29:26.860 What I did was, look, I represent a lot of people who are politically opposite to Donald
00:29:32.220 Trump, right?
00:29:33.720 That being said, I've spoke to some of them.
00:29:35.380 I let them know this is, you know, it's something I believe in.
00:29:39.960 And look, I'm a litigator.
00:29:40.980 And that's what I do.
00:29:41.740 I litigate.
00:29:42.240 I'm not, you know, I'm not this campaign lawyer.
00:29:44.160 I'm not out there, you know, doing things that would be against what I would normally do
00:29:48.900 as a litigator.
00:29:49.360 When I represent someone on the far left, I do the same thing.
00:29:51.800 I litigate.
00:29:52.260 I don't get involved in all the collateral issues.
00:29:54.420 I fight the case and make sure that that justice prevails.
00:29:57.340 I mean, we used to all agree on the Bill of Rights, and I don't think we do anymore.
00:30:01.820 No, no.
00:30:02.660 And it's amazing that the justice system is now being weaponized the way it is.
00:30:06.640 We, of course, are Rubicon that is going to be forever, forever damaging to this country's
00:30:11.860 administration of justice.
00:30:12.820 And that's what scares the hell out of me.
00:30:15.140 I mean, now, so, you know, okay, it's Donald Trump today.
00:30:17.080 Tomorrow, it's some Democrat in Texas who a Republican prosecutor decides, hey, you know
00:30:21.480 what?
00:30:21.660 I saw what they did in New York.
00:30:22.880 I'm going to use the power of my office, prosecutorial discretion, which is so overwhelmingly
00:30:26.680 powerful.
00:30:27.500 I'll go after him.
00:30:28.580 Joe, there's no, I mean, there have been crimes committed by Hunter Biden in three different
00:30:34.780 states that are red states.
00:30:37.720 Why wouldn't the district attorney take those on?
00:30:42.160 Exactly.
00:30:42.820 I mean, and that's, that's the point when, when it's a clear political play here.
00:30:46.600 And that's what really, really troubles me.
00:30:50.040 It's, it's, you know, I watched him try and pretend yesterday that this was just something
00:30:56.720 he would do against any, any single person.
00:31:01.720 You know, we charge people with these crimes.
00:31:04.080 Yeah.
00:31:04.780 You charge people with false fine business records, which is a misdemeanor, you know, seven
00:31:09.280 years later, which the statute of limitations would be gone on.
00:31:12.860 And tying it to a federal election campaign violation.
00:31:16.160 When you're a state prosecutor that the federal authorities have said there's no violation
00:31:19.080 for.
00:31:19.540 Yeah.
00:31:19.920 All the time you guys do that.
00:31:21.340 Absolutely.
00:31:22.440 I mean, I hear these disingenuous things.
00:31:24.100 That also charges people with false business record charges all the time.
00:31:26.700 Yeah.
00:31:26.900 False business record charges.
00:31:28.060 Based on what?
00:31:28.800 I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's so disingenuous, it's not even funny.
00:31:33.040 Joe, I hope you're right that this will never see a courtroom or a jury.
00:31:39.040 We wish you the best.
00:31:41.100 Pass on our, our best to Donald Trump.
00:31:45.200 Thank you.
00:31:45.720 I absolutely will, Glenn.
00:31:46.680 Thank you for having me on.
00:31:47.540 God bless you.
00:31:48.140 Bye-bye.
00:31:48.420 The best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:31:54.420 You know, I asked Alan Dershowitz about a half hour ago, what is it going to take for
00:32:03.180 people to say enough is enough?
00:32:04.760 I, I cannot believe more people are not standing up about the pornography that is being spoon
00:32:13.220 fed our children, the, the sexual deviancy, the, the brainwashing and the mutilation of
00:32:23.400 our children gang.
00:32:25.000 That is what we're talking about.
00:32:27.400 Stop using, uh, you know, D I E and all of these, all of these new fangled terms for you
00:32:36.780 are teaching sexual craziness.
00:32:41.720 You are teaching pornography and evil.
00:32:46.360 You are teaching mutilation of children's bodies.
00:32:51.240 All of us, Republicans, Democrats, 10 years ago, we were all lockstep.
00:32:57.400 We're against that.
00:32:58.780 No one has made a good case for it.
00:33:03.320 Why aren't we standing up?
00:33:05.100 I want to tell you something that happened in Oklahoma yesterday.
00:33:09.500 Um, Ryan Walters.
00:33:11.760 In fact, I'm out of him.
00:33:12.880 Tell the story.
00:33:14.140 Ryan Walters is the Oklahoma state superintendent.
00:33:17.420 I've met this guy.
00:33:19.180 I, I think the world of him and his wife, they are true blue bill of rights.
00:33:27.400 It's defenders and defenders of family.
00:33:31.160 And Oklahoma is trying really hard to be Austin, Texas, Oklahoma.
00:33:37.040 You don't want to be Austin.
00:33:39.360 Come to Austin and see that's your future.
00:33:43.060 You don't want that.
00:33:45.360 Okay.
00:33:45.920 Ryan Walters is here now.
00:33:48.360 Ryan, thank you for being on here.
00:33:50.020 The Oklahoma state superintendent.
00:33:52.160 You're like the head of the schools, right?
00:33:55.060 Yes, sir.
00:33:55.700 Okay.
00:33:56.040 Thanks for having me on Glenn.
00:33:57.400 And, um, I know we got to talk a little bit about this, but yes, sir.
00:34:00.820 You know, I won an election, went to all 77 counties in Oklahoma.
00:34:04.340 It was clear.
00:34:05.640 Parents are concerned about what's being taught to their kids.
00:34:08.700 We got all these examples of books, pushing transsexual is among kids books, pushing graphic
00:34:15.560 pornography in the earliest of grades.
00:34:17.900 So in my agency, we passed rules and said, look, you cannot have sexually explicit material
00:34:24.000 in front of kids and classrooms and school libraries.
00:34:27.160 And by the way, if you have conversations with kids about sex, about gender transitioning,
00:34:32.180 you have to tell the parent.
00:34:35.260 And we have, of course, the Democrats are fighting this, but we have some Republican
00:34:39.120 representatives fighting, fighting me on the issue.
00:34:42.860 And like yesterday, an opinion from our attorney general came down blocking the enforcement
00:34:48.040 of our rules in the state of Oklahoma.
00:34:50.040 And so I'm going to continue to fight to make sure that this is out of our schools.
00:34:53.580 But I'm telling you, it is amazing to me that we are having folks stand up against common
00:35:00.140 sense, which is our kids should be focused on the basics and not become a social experiment
00:35:06.600 for the most radical leftists.
00:35:08.520 So let me clarify something that Ryan has said.
00:35:15.260 So he put this in and you, if you had pornography in your school library and it was clearly defined,
00:35:22.060 you were going to start pulling funding from the schools, right?
00:35:27.080 Yes, sir.
00:35:27.580 We were going to pull their accreditation, which then could pull their funding.
00:35:30.080 Yes, sir.
00:35:30.400 Okay.
00:35:31.140 So you don't put pornography in the library and it's clearly defined.
00:35:38.800 Okay.
00:35:39.800 Don't do it.
00:35:41.140 When he went and correct me if I have any of this wrong, because this is what I've heard.
00:35:45.180 And, you know, you're too nice to throw people under the bus, but I'm not.
00:35:50.100 From what I understand, you went to the Republicans in the statehouse and many of them told you to calm down.
00:35:58.520 Is that right?
00:36:00.400 Well, we have some that, you know, when they questioned me on whether these materials were
00:36:05.560 actually in schools, I emailed them 50 pages of pornographic material that have been sent to us
00:36:10.660 that are in schools.
00:36:11.320 And I was told they were very offended.
00:36:13.700 Some didn't like the fact that we sent that into their government server.
00:36:17.820 And I said, hey, you know, you think you're offended.
00:36:19.660 Can you imagine the parent or grandparent that brought this, their five-year-old,
00:36:23.060 their six-year-old brought this home from school?
00:36:25.020 Talk about being offended.
00:36:27.140 Unbelievable.
00:36:27.740 And those are Republicans.
00:36:30.520 Yes, sir.
00:36:31.020 I mean, you know, we've got a teacher's union in the state of Oklahoma that has funded some Republican candidates.
00:36:36.400 And, yes, they say, hey, you need to calm down.
00:36:38.220 This isn't, hey, this isn't really going on.
00:36:40.160 And then I show them where it's going on.
00:36:41.380 Well, it's not going on that much.
00:36:43.380 Well, you know, so why don't you just cool it?
00:36:45.500 And I go, guys, parents do not want their kids to be exposed to this material in schools.
00:36:52.100 Fifteen years ago, you wouldn't have seen anyone defending this.
00:36:54.720 And somehow now we are in a red state and allowing this to happen.
00:37:00.480 This should not happen in any school.
00:37:01.900 I said, if it's happening in one classroom, that's one too many.
00:37:04.580 We have to protect our kids.
00:37:05.920 Okay.
00:37:05.940 I want you to know, I'm going to talk right directly to Oklahomans here.
00:37:11.160 You do not understand what you're playing with if you haven't gotten involved yet.
00:37:17.840 They are destroying our children.
00:37:21.760 We are, without knowing it, without anybody planning this, we are engaging in ancient evil worship where we sacrifice our children to sex and death.
00:37:38.420 This is Old Testament stuff, and it is evil.
00:37:45.200 And the way it has gotten through is in these red states.
00:37:49.580 Texas is a problem.
00:37:51.600 Utah is a problem.
00:37:53.480 Idaho has this problem.
00:37:55.820 Oklahoma has this problem.
00:37:57.740 Red states have this problem.
00:37:59.700 You just think you're fine.
00:38:01.800 But the teachers' unions are so well funded, and if you're in a red state, they'll find those wishy-washy, spineless, boneless Republicans, and they will pour money their way.
00:38:17.540 You need to make it extraordinarily clear in your House, in your Senate, in every single red state.
00:38:25.600 But if you are taking money from the teachers' union, you're not on my side.
00:38:32.920 And I'm sorry.
00:38:34.200 I mean, there's lots of unions and lots of different examples of, you know, SEIU is a really bad union.
00:38:42.520 Teachers' union, it is the reason that we have these problems.
00:38:48.400 If you are a teacher, and you are a member of the teachers' union, and you don't have to be, but you're voluntarily sending them money, I'm sorry.
00:39:00.900 You're a teacher I don't trust.
00:39:03.460 You're a teacher that I will campaign to get fired.
00:39:07.000 Because if you're not logical enough to stop sending your money to a group of people whose agenda is political and to corrupt our children, no sympathy for you.
00:39:21.500 I'm sorry.
00:39:22.720 There are no middle—you can't play the middle ground in this.
00:39:26.520 Our children are at stake.
00:39:29.280 So yesterday, this—he's a Republican, is he not, the attorney general?
00:39:35.860 Yes, sir.
00:39:38.000 Okay.
00:39:38.280 I want you to call the attorney general—I'm sorry to have you as a witness of this, Ryan.
00:39:43.460 You have nothing to do with this.
00:39:45.100 I call on you to call the attorney general's office today if you're an Oklahoman.
00:39:51.240 And if you believe this, we don't want any kind of pornography or any of this crap in our schools.
00:40:00.800 Period.
00:40:02.000 Period.
00:40:02.480 I have been told over and over again from Republicans who constantly are beaten into the ground by the teachers' unions that the reason why they always lose is because the Republicans that do have a chance of a spine don't stand up because they don't feel the people have their backs.
00:40:24.940 So you've got to call all of them and say, hey, you taking any money from the teachers' union?
00:40:31.960 Hey, how do you feel about the thing the attorney general did?
00:40:35.940 And then you make it very clear to them, no threats, nothing.
00:40:40.180 Nothing.
00:40:40.780 You cannot play that game.
00:40:42.980 You just be very clear.
00:40:45.380 You answer to me.
00:40:47.400 I, you are a representative of me.
00:40:51.620 Mr. Attorney General, you are to protect and defend the people and the Constitution of Oklahoma.
00:41:00.560 I don't think that this is part of that.
00:41:03.340 Maybe you do and we disagree.
00:41:05.340 But I want you to know I will campaign against you.
00:41:09.040 I will stop giving money to the GOP until you stop allowing this to happen to our children.
00:41:22.120 I'm sorry, Ryan.
00:41:23.460 Anything else to say?
00:41:25.960 Well, Glenn, I appreciate you and your work.
00:41:29.680 And, you know, and this is the reality is that the radical left is trying to turn kids against their family.
00:41:35.340 They're trying to turn kids against this country.
00:41:37.200 And, frankly, they're trying to turn kids against their faith.
00:41:39.820 That's where this is all based in.
00:41:41.440 We know it.
00:41:42.020 We've seen it in Marxist theology.
00:41:43.860 That is where the left is headed.
00:41:45.860 If we do not aggressively take them on and get common sense and the values that this country was founded on back in our education system, this will be a country forever lost.
00:41:59.200 And this is the opportunity.
00:42:00.440 And this is, to me, their endgame scenario.
00:42:01.960 They're going to take our kids, turn them against their families, their country, and their faith.
00:42:07.720 I will do all I can in my power to fight against this in the state of Oklahoma.
00:42:12.200 We have to keep our red states in line with our country's values.
00:42:16.500 And they are coming after our kids.
00:42:17.640 And we've got to protect them.
00:42:18.880 Do not sit down.
00:42:20.340 Do not sit down ever.
00:42:22.360 Thank you so much.
00:42:23.660 I really appreciate it, Ryan.
00:42:25.820 Oklahoma, you better wake up.
00:42:28.680 You better wake up.
00:42:29.640 And every single red state, you think you're safe.
00:42:32.980 You're not.
00:42:35.160 They are the, the fox is in the hen house.
00:42:39.560 Let me read something that, that I just shared with, uh, Alan Dershowitz.
00:42:49.180 This is at the time when we had lost every battle in the first eight months of the American Revolution.
00:42:55.300 Washington hadn't won a damn thing.
00:42:57.840 Our army is just down to a few stragglers.
00:43:02.140 And everybody was excited in the summer.
00:43:05.160 Yeah, let's take on the king.
00:43:07.720 And now no one was around.
00:43:10.480 And Thomas Paine wrote, these are the times that try men's souls.
00:43:14.140 The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country.
00:43:20.400 But he who stands by it now deserves the love and thanks of man and women.
00:43:26.640 Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered.
00:43:31.060 Yet we have this consolation with us.
00:43:33.800 That the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
00:43:38.340 What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.
00:43:43.000 It is dearness only that gives everything its value.
00:43:46.700 Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods.
00:43:51.280 And it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated.
00:43:59.580 Britain, it writes, but I would say our schools, our school boards, our justice system, our king in Washington,
00:44:09.760 wants to bind us in all cases.
00:44:13.080 And if being bound in that manner is not slavery, then there's not such a thing as slavery upon the earth.
00:44:23.780 Do not shrink from these times.
00:44:27.140 You were born at this time because you have a voice to be offered.
00:44:34.500 You may not think you make a difference, but believe me, by sitting this out, you will make a difference for the other side.
00:44:48.260 May hell come with it, but I will not turn my back on the bill of rights and the decency of what men should be.
00:45:04.500 I will not turn my back on our children.
00:45:09.540 Will you join the fight?
