Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, America. It's Friday. The podcast today breakdown of last night's special. It was absolutely incredible.
00:00:07.420 Some laughs with Nick DiPaolo. Bill O'Reilly is here. He's got a lot to say about Iowa, the caucus, impeachment, the State of the Union, and where do we go from here.
00:00:18.740 And then we also give you the breaking news at the time that we were recording this about Virginia and what they have just passed in the House.
00:00:27.480 A gun ban that makes anybody who has a so-called assault rifle now a felon, unless you go and report it and register with the state police.
00:00:38.560 All this and more on today's podcast.
00:00:48.160 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:00:52.220 We have Nick DiPaolo on with us.
00:00:59.640 Yeah.
00:01:00.420 Hi, it's Friday, Nick. How are you?
00:01:03.360 Good. How are you doing, Glenn?
00:01:04.840 I'm tired. Good heavens, man. What a week this has been.
00:01:09.940 Yeah, you had to cover some serious stuff. I'm so lucky I'm a comedian.
00:01:13.600 Well, that's what I was kind of hoping, that you paid attention to all this stuff and you had something funny to say, because it was, man, this has been a relentless week.
00:01:25.100 Well, you got the wrong guy.
00:01:29.640 It's been a great week.
00:01:31.240 It has.
00:01:32.380 I have to meet Trump.
00:01:33.740 Just him at the prayer breakfast, holding up the paper, like the guy in Cheers at the end, we win.
00:01:40.180 Yeah.
00:01:40.860 I mean, sticking it right in Pelosi's face.
00:01:43.340 She is the most evil.
00:01:44.660 I always thought Hillary was the most evil person on the planet.
00:01:47.600 She has jumped her for me.
00:01:50.120 She is just, you know, I hate to use the word evil when the pranks are so third grade.
00:01:59.100 I mean, evil is a little smarter than Nancy Pelosi.
00:02:01.940 You know what I mean?
00:02:03.700 Evil wins from time to time.
00:02:06.180 And she has not been on a winning streak lately at all.
00:02:10.640 She should manage the Mets.
00:02:14.740 Didn't you love the perp walk when they were walking out, Marsha Blackburn?
00:02:19.020 I didn't see that.
00:02:20.620 Oh, yeah.
00:02:21.840 Marsha Blackburn got to have the sergeant at arms escort him out.
00:02:26.240 Just a line of losers.
00:02:27.500 I think Jerry Nadler was crying.
00:02:30.600 Adam Schiff was pouting.
00:02:32.180 Just a line of losers going out there.
00:02:33.980 It was beautiful.
00:02:35.160 It was.
00:02:35.380 It reminded me of a few good men when they arrested Nicholson at the end.
00:02:39.740 Put the cuffs on Kendrick, you know?
00:02:41.280 You know what?
00:02:42.380 We did a special last night, Nick, that is just mind-boggling.
00:02:47.040 There need to be some handcuffs.
00:02:49.200 And I will tell you this.
00:02:50.420 I think Grassley is on it.
00:02:52.420 Senator Grassley and Senator Johnson are working on the investigation and working on subpoenas for Hunter Biden.
00:03:03.200 And they are going after the money laundering.
00:03:05.780 I think this thing is about to crack open.
00:03:07.520 And it's good because the first time in three and a half years, I feel like the Republicans can play offense and not defense because the Democrats have destroyed themselves.
00:03:19.100 Oh, it's unbelievable.
00:03:20.380 But I'm a little worried about Grassley.
00:03:21.740 He's in his late hundreds, isn't he?
00:03:23.280 He's going to be around to bring this to fruition?
00:03:26.140 Yeah, I'm surprised every time you hear his name, you're like, wow, he's still going.
00:03:31.300 Yeah, he's in his.
00:03:32.380 But, yes, that's the big thing.
00:03:34.580 They're going to get Hunter Biden, follow the money.
00:03:36.880 That's going to be cracked open.
00:03:37.900 But the bigger thing still is the IG report and what the FBI had.
00:03:44.000 They had, you know, confidential people in Trump's.
00:03:47.620 They weren't officially FBI.
00:03:49.220 They were in his orbit.
00:03:50.880 Right.
00:03:51.060 Are they saving that for the election, Glenn?
00:03:53.700 I hope so.
00:03:54.640 I mean, how is he going to lose this with the economy, the impeachment?
00:03:59.300 I mean, I think the only way destroying themselves.
00:04:02.420 Did you see that you watch the State of the Union, right?
00:04:05.320 I watch the State.
00:04:06.460 I watch Trump anytime.
00:04:07.940 It's like a Netflix special.
00:04:09.240 It's like, you know, it's like a stand up special.
00:04:12.800 I look forward to it.
00:04:13.720 He watched every minute of it.
00:04:15.000 That was an amazing speech.
00:04:17.480 I mean, I was in the room.
00:04:19.100 And honestly, when he said to the woman, you know, that your husband is back and here he is, I literally looked under my chair to see if there was a card underneath that we all won cars.
00:04:30.600 I mean, because that was Oprah Winfrey.
00:04:32.620 The whole thing was like, and you've got a car and you've got a car.
00:04:36.520 It was it was intense, but it was a little game showy, but it made it good.
00:04:43.780 That really showed to me this guy knows how to program a good show, but I thought it was presidential and great.
00:04:53.160 It was great.
00:04:54.120 And I think he has laryngitis, which he should have all the time.
00:04:56.900 It makes him more presidential.
00:04:58.380 He kind of.
00:04:59.360 But let me ask you a question.
00:05:00.580 Who wrote who writes the flowery parts of those speeches?
00:05:04.160 That's not.
00:05:04.860 Well, Trump.
00:05:05.920 No, no, no.
00:05:06.500 He didn't write any of that.
00:05:07.860 That was written by what was his name, Stu?
00:05:10.380 He's a great Dick Van Dyke show.
00:05:12.460 No, he was a great.
00:05:13.820 He's a great.
00:05:14.740 Schwartz.
00:05:15.760 So you don't.
00:05:17.260 So you don't like you didn't like the flowery parts.
00:05:20.440 No, I like it.
00:05:21.220 It just it's weird coming out of Trump's mouth.
00:05:23.600 Yes.
00:05:24.020 You know, I mean, a guy who's a, you know, a building contractor from Queens.
00:05:27.900 Right.
00:05:28.380 Right.
00:05:28.900 Right.
00:05:29.580 I just find you can tell the part.
00:05:32.000 I know he knows his accomplishments.
00:05:33.740 He's got that in his head and he's a salesman.
00:05:36.160 That comes up naturally.
00:05:37.240 But when he starts saying a better future, the sun is shining.
00:05:40.540 Yeah.
00:05:40.820 You know, that stuff makes me laugh.
00:05:42.540 I will.
00:05:42.940 I will.
00:05:43.200 I will tell you when he started and he was just going through the economic stats.
00:05:47.500 And that first half hour, if you were just a regular person,
00:05:50.700 you watch the first half hour and a that's the first time you've heard any of those stats.
00:05:56.520 Um, and if you believe those stats, which I'm only saying that because the media, uh, is constantly telling you how bad we are.
00:06:06.080 Uh, if you look at those stats, I, you're right.
00:06:09.480 I don't know how this guy loses unless, you know, uh, the, the, the economy falls apart or something, you know, spectacularly bad happens.
00:06:19.960 But the beauty of that with, with him reading all those statistics and how great we're doing is below the juxtaposition of Pelosi tearing up this.
00:06:28.880 In other words, admitting right on camera.
00:06:30.660 I hate this, that he's doing so well and the country's doing so well.
00:06:33.960 I hate you people.
00:06:35.060 It was, it was it not crazy.
00:06:36.880 That was, I saw that.
00:06:38.340 I'm like, what is she thinking?
00:06:40.680 I was going to blame it on, yeah, I was going to blame it on menopause, but she's like 76.
00:06:45.560 So I will, uh, I want to ask you about, uh, Iowa because this has just been a devastating week for, you had Nancy Pelosi at the State of the Union.
00:06:55.800 You had Iowa where Joe Biden is just done and you still don't have the final count.
00:07:02.040 Uh, you have, uh, uh, after that, the impeachment, he's acquitted.
00:07:07.960 This couldn't have been a worse week for the Democrats.
00:07:10.560 I said that to my producer.
00:07:12.220 I said the Democrats were like Glenn Beck in the eighties when he was on drugs.
00:07:17.660 He finally hit bottom.
00:07:19.580 Wait, that's what you said to your producer.
00:07:21.680 No, I didn't.
00:07:22.320 I said, I didn't use your name, but I said, it's like somebody who, a drug addict who hits bottom.
00:07:27.420 I don't think they're at the bottom yet.
00:07:29.380 I don't think.
00:07:29.940 Well, no, you're right.
00:07:30.740 When the stuff comes out about Obama spying on, uh, that's when they're at the bottom.
00:07:34.440 I'm waiting for that.
00:07:35.480 I know this stuff is, uh, the, you know, uh, I'm waiting for, I want to see somebody arrested.
00:07:41.860 Yeah.
00:07:42.240 And I want to see call me arrested.
00:07:44.340 Well, but the problem is the guy that the, they put in charge of, uh, looking into the FISA court stuff is the guy who was the agent that said, this is ridiculous.
00:07:55.700 You can trust the FISA court.
00:07:57.440 Uh, you know, none of this is, is true.
00:08:00.740 This is all made up stuff about Carter page.
00:08:03.460 That guy is in charge of the investigation.
00:08:07.300 Now, who's that?
00:08:08.840 Oh, you'd ask me for a name.
00:08:10.620 What's the, do you know his name?
00:08:11.700 Not Rob Ray.
00:08:12.360 No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:08:13.460 Um, I don't know his name, but I can look it up for you.
00:08:15.900 Uh, but, but he is the guy who was making all of the excuses for the Obama administration with FISA court.
00:08:23.860 And now he's the guy that they put in charge of investigating it.
00:08:27.220 And it's, it's ridiculous.
00:08:29.800 Yeah, but we got the, we got the Durham report coming.
00:08:33.220 Yes, we do.
00:08:33.780 And we don't know what's in that yet.
00:08:35.580 And hopefully, I mean, I, everything I have heard is that, uh, that, uh, bar is coming down like a bag of bricks.
00:08:45.640 Uh, and the reports that are coming out this spring or summer are, are going to clean house.
00:08:52.880 I've, I've also heard, um, talk that there are some big replacements coming in some of these communities.
00:09:00.500 We'll leave it at that.
00:09:01.740 Uh, and, uh, Trump is interested in cleaning house, really cleaning house.
00:09:07.540 And that would be fantastic.
00:09:10.240 Yeah, I, I, I think they're saving this.
00:09:13.440 I think, uh, the timing's perfect.
00:09:16.120 I mean, this is going to be a, a historic landslide in 2020.
00:09:21.160 Anyway, unless like you said, yeah, but I, I, I mean, how are you going to screw up this economy?
00:09:28.200 What are you going to, I mean, come on.
00:09:29.620 Well, Corona virus, which, oh, I had that.
00:09:33.820 You had to add will PM.
00:09:35.440 I knocked it out of my system.
00:09:37.540 Please.
00:09:38.340 Okay.
00:09:38.640 Well, I'm so sick of hearing, I, you know, my whole life, uh, SARS was supposed to kill me.
00:09:43.800 There's been about 18 of these things.
00:09:45.560 I'm sorry.
00:09:46.520 China.
00:09:47.020 There's how many people in China have it three, uh, 600 or something.
00:09:50.280 And that's like 11 people over here.
00:09:52.680 Right.
00:09:54.320 There's a trillion Chinese.
00:09:55.880 That's like a 0.01%.
00:09:57.540 I'm not nervous.
00:09:58.420 I don't have a summer.
00:09:59.580 I don't have a summer home and who Wang anymore.
00:10:02.040 Right.
00:10:02.440 Get rid of my pet.
00:10:03.340 Did you see where that originated from some exotic animals?
00:10:06.520 Yeah, no, they think it was a bat soup.
00:10:09.920 Bat soup.
00:10:10.820 Don't tell me that.
00:10:11.620 I love bat soup.
00:10:12.520 I had that.
00:10:14.100 I had that at Applebee's like two weeks ago.
00:10:16.440 Right.
00:10:17.320 Yeah.
00:10:17.640 There's a bat soup happy hour.
00:10:19.200 Don't even tell me that.
00:10:21.740 You can get the wings deep fried with the soup.
00:10:24.140 Yeah.
00:10:24.540 It's really good stuff.
00:10:26.420 Bat soup.
00:10:27.000 Have you had bat soup?
00:10:28.140 I mean, it's, it's why, why?
00:10:31.180 I mean, we, this is some things that we just need to tell people.
00:10:35.160 And one, I didn't think we needed to say this, but don't eat the bats.
00:10:39.560 Okay.
00:10:40.440 Don't eat the bats.
00:10:42.220 I had a, when I lived in New York and Westchester, I had a big stone house by a pond and I had
00:10:47.400 a couple incidents.
00:10:48.580 Bats got in my house.
00:10:50.280 I was reduced to a 12 year old girl.
00:10:52.080 One of them chased me around my kitchen and touched the back of my neck.
00:10:56.140 Glenn, I screamed like a little girl.
00:10:58.760 Oh, I know.
00:11:00.300 And then I got it out of the house and a week later, me and my wife were in bed.
00:11:04.420 This is true.
00:11:04.940 The lights route.
00:11:05.680 The only light you could see was from the DVR.
00:11:08.320 I see something go by it.
00:11:10.000 I go, don't even tell me the light.
00:11:12.520 I see something fly by it.
00:11:13.840 I hear fluttering and boy, all that feminism goes away.
00:11:20.040 She's under the covers.
00:11:21.460 I get a wiffle ball bat.
00:11:22.840 I'm swinging.
00:11:23.800 I broke two wedding pictures.
00:11:25.420 So some good came out of this, but Nick DiPaolo from Nick dip.com.
00:11:30.500 You can listen to his podcast daily Nick dip.com.
00:11:34.140 Thank you so much, Nick.
00:11:35.360 I appreciate it.
00:11:35.880 Can I plug three, three dates real quick?
00:11:37.580 Yeah, quickly.
00:11:37.940 Yeah, go ahead.
00:11:38.780 A week from Saturday, February 15th, Kelsey Theater, Lake Park, Florida, Decatur Civic Center,
00:11:43.740 February 28th, Decatur, Illinois, February 29th, Zanies Comedy Cup, Rosemont, Illinois.
00:11:48.100 And I thank you.
00:11:48.860 Good to see you again.
00:11:49.600 Yeah, good to see you.
00:11:50.380 Thanks for talking to us, Nick.
00:11:53.980 The best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:12:02.380 Hey, it's Glenn, and you're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:12:13.040 On Monday, we had Iowa, not just a run-of-the-mill caucus.
00:12:20.680 They screwed it all up.
00:12:22.760 So two huge stories just on Monday.
00:12:25.420 Then State of the Union on Tuesday, and it wasn't a run-of-the-mill State of the Union.
00:12:30.240 And then Nancy Pelosi added sugar on top of it.
00:12:33.800 Then, the next day, we had impeachment, which has only happened three times in American history.
00:12:40.840 And the president was acquitted.
00:12:43.400 And then, the next day, we had his response.
00:12:47.000 And it gets us all the way here to Friday.
00:12:49.300 And God only knows what happens.
00:12:50.760 We haven't even talked about the locusts that are spreading all over the Middle East.
00:12:56.200 So, hey, maybe we'll get to the plague and the locusts next week.
00:13:00.020 Bill O'Reilly from BillOReilly.com, you did a great commentary on our State of the Union coverage on Tuesday.
00:13:09.080 Thank you for that.
00:13:10.180 Let me start on Iowa and take this day by day.
00:13:15.040 Iowa, the results are still unknown.
00:13:18.520 What the hell happened, Bill?
00:13:21.000 Well, the Iowa vote counters went to the Mideast to count the locusts.
00:13:26.760 Right.
00:13:27.520 And that.
00:13:28.320 Right.
00:13:28.580 So, that's what delayed it.
00:13:31.640 So, Pete Buttigieg is the big winner in Iowa.
00:13:36.860 But nobody cares.
00:13:38.600 So, I don't know if that's going to help Mayor Pete.
00:13:41.880 But I think it will.
00:13:42.680 I think it will.
00:13:43.400 It already is looking at the polls in New Hampshire.
00:13:47.520 It already.
00:13:48.020 And it turns out that it looks like Bernie Sanders actually won in Iowa 23 to 22 or 24 to 23, something like that, just by a razor's edge.
00:14:01.360 But he won.
00:14:02.500 And so, he's not getting the bounce that he would have gotten.
00:14:05.680 Instead, it's all going to Pete Buttigieg.
00:14:08.140 Right.
00:14:08.640 Because Sanders should have wiped him out.
00:14:10.900 Right.
00:14:11.300 You know, Buttigieg is an interesting character because you really don't know what he stands for.
00:14:19.260 You don't know.
00:14:20.320 Because he's never sat for a serious interview with anybody.
00:14:24.560 The debates are jokes.
00:14:26.740 They just ask a question.
00:14:27.940 A guy can or the gal can answer whatever they want.
00:14:30.940 Nobody holds them accountable for what they say.
00:14:33.560 So, I don't know what Pete Buttigieg's vision of the country is, for example.
00:14:39.700 Nobody is going to sit.
00:14:41.000 I mean, think of it.
00:14:43.160 Let's say he just is starting to do well and he becomes the nominee.
00:14:48.320 Who is he going to sit with that's going to ask him hard questions?
00:14:51.660 No one.
00:14:52.780 No one.
00:14:53.220 And he knows and his people know that he doesn't have to.
00:14:58.360 That nobody's demanding that he do it.
00:15:00.580 So, for example, open borders.
00:15:03.380 Does Pete Buttigieg support open borders?
00:15:06.840 Would he deport people?
00:15:10.240 Is he a single-payer health care guy?
00:15:14.300 What's his health care vision?
00:15:16.600 What would he do with taxes?
00:15:20.240 Would he raise corporate taxes and personal taxes?
00:15:24.860 Nobody knows.
00:15:26.540 All Pete Buttigieg, and I said this before, and I really think this is the best analogy.
00:15:30.960 He looks like a cast member of Happy Days.
00:15:33.680 Every time I see him, I go, where's Chachi?
00:15:37.460 He's young, very articulate, but so are the Happy Days crew.
00:15:41.780 And he goes around and he says stuff, and I don't know what, three minutes after he says
00:15:48.920 something, I don't know what he, I can't remember what he said.
00:15:52.440 But he's got deficits.
00:15:54.500 For some reason, African Americans don't like Pete Buttigieg.
00:15:57.840 I don't know why they don't like him.
00:15:59.240 It's their church-going, basic, you know, moral principle-believing people.
00:16:07.940 You don't mean you think it's a gay thing with him?
00:16:10.580 It absolutely is.
00:16:12.100 I mean, you remember Proposition 8?
00:16:14.520 You know, the Mormons and the Catholics got the heat for making sure Proposition 8 didn't happen in California.
00:16:21.980 It wasn't them.
00:16:23.840 The biggest outspoken and force as a voting bloc against Proposition 8 in California was the African American vote.
00:16:33.780 They don't, they have, culturally it just doesn't work there.
00:16:39.740 So he gets 30% of the Democratic machine, African Americans and, you'd have to say, very conservative Hispanics, not going to vote for him.
00:16:56.980 That's a pretty big deficit.
00:16:58.740 And I will tell you this, I think this is different.
00:17:01.680 You know, when Obama was coming in, it was the first black president, so it was history, etc., etc.
00:17:07.600 This would be history, too, you know, the first gay president.
00:17:11.360 But I think that people don't, people have changed.
00:17:17.600 It's not like the first black president anymore.
00:17:21.040 Now, when you say, well, you've got to vote for him because he's whatever, fill in the blank, gay,
00:17:27.800 they will look at that as, oh, geez, now we're going to have an activist.
00:17:32.240 And I think people are tired of the activists.
00:17:35.920 They're tired of, you know, we did the gay marriage and everything and things are moving along.
00:17:43.060 And so there's that group that would say, so it's not going to be a problem.
00:17:46.540 I don't care if he's gay or not.
00:17:48.340 And I think that's probably most Americans, maybe.
00:17:53.320 But then you have, then you have those who might support him because of that, that would say, you know,
00:17:59.860 I just don't want any more activism.
00:18:01.900 What is that going to mean?
00:18:03.060 But he's not really an activist.
00:18:04.880 He's not campaigning.
00:18:06.480 He's campaigning as, I'm a nice guy, I'm smart, and I'm young and vibrant and elect me.
00:18:17.180 Now, he's going to get hurt in South Carolina and some of the biggest states.
00:18:24.320 So, yes, Buttigieg will probably do well next Tuesday.
00:18:27.560 And then all the press will run up and it'll be Buttigieg, Buttigieg, Buttigieg,
00:18:32.660 because they're desperately, they being the media, seeking someone who can be competitive with Donald Trump.
00:18:40.120 But I don't see Buttigieg as the nominee.
00:18:43.020 I don't think that's going to happen.
00:18:45.780 I don't know who it's going to be.
00:18:47.360 I was a Biden predictor.
00:18:50.100 But Biden, really, he can't raise money now.
00:18:53.480 I mean, that's a big industry.
00:18:54.500 If Biden comes in, right now he is in the polls in New Hampshire, he's in fourth place.
00:19:00.240 If Biden is in fourth or fifth place, he's done.
00:19:03.180 He's just done.
00:19:03.820 Well, he'll win South Carolina even if he performs poorly in New Hampshire.
00:19:12.040 So I don't think he's done.
00:19:14.160 And then tonight, I think you're going to see Biden be a lot more aggressive because he almost has to be in the debate, right?
00:19:22.940 Oh, there's a debate tonight?
00:19:25.160 Yeah, I bet.
00:19:26.100 No, I've already got that on my calendar.
00:19:28.880 I'm watching that start to finish tonight.
00:19:30.700 I can't wait.
00:19:31.420 I'll be tweeting at Bill O'Reilly.
00:19:34.140 Everybody sign up for the tweets so you don't have to watch.
00:19:37.640 I'll tweet it.
00:19:38.640 You'll know what's going on.
00:19:39.980 That's what I'm looking for, Bill.
00:19:42.680 That's what I'm looking for.
00:19:44.500 Take the bullet for us.
00:19:46.020 Do whatever you want.
00:19:46.980 Yeah.
00:19:47.360 He's got to go hard at Buttigieg, though, doesn't he, Bill?
00:19:49.340 I mean, this is it.
00:19:51.460 I mean, if he loses, if he gets destroyed in New Hampshire, and I know what you're saying about South Carolina because his polls have been so solid among black voters in particular.
00:20:00.520 He's been holding that line.
00:20:02.180 But if he loses three states in a row, they may abandon him.
00:20:07.440 No, they won't.
00:20:08.860 He'll win South Carolina.
00:20:11.020 Black voters are very loyal.
00:20:13.000 Very loyal.
00:20:13.660 And they'll stay with him because of the Obama connection.
00:20:17.980 But tonight, I expect, you know, scorched earth from Joe Biden as much as that could be.
00:20:25.040 I don't know what that even means with Joe Biden anymore.
00:20:27.660 He used to be that guy.
00:20:29.300 I don't think he has the fight in him anymore.
00:20:31.600 I really don't.
00:20:32.720 But certainly he has run a very poor campaign and looks befuddled, word of the day, befuddled.
00:20:42.400 But tonight, he's got to do it.
00:20:44.780 He's got to come out.
00:20:45.480 But even if he does, nobody's watching the debate tonight.
00:20:48.720 Nobody's going to watch.
00:20:49.620 You're watching.
00:20:50.260 Six million viewers.
00:20:51.560 You know, because everybody will be out having fun.
00:20:53.940 They should have done the debate on Sunday night.
00:20:56.780 But they put Friday night.
00:20:58.360 I don't think anybody wants.
00:20:59.240 And nobody's going to remember it by Monday.
00:21:00.720 Right.
00:21:00.920 I don't think they even want anybody watching.
00:21:03.560 I mean, that's the worst day of the week to do a debate.
00:21:06.360 I mean, it's just, it's a horrible thing.
00:21:07.840 So, Bill, let me ask you about Bernie Sanders now.
00:21:13.100 Bernie Sanders did really well in Iowa.
00:21:16.440 He gets no credit now.
00:21:19.620 He's lost that bump.
00:21:20.980 He's got 24%.
00:21:22.480 It looks like he is the official winner in Iowa by one percentage point.
00:21:28.240 He is ahead now.
00:21:29.480 But it's close.
00:21:30.240 Buttigieg is closing the gap in New Hampshire.
00:21:33.080 Buttigieg, I think, was at 14%.
00:21:35.020 He's now at, what was it, 22% in New Hampshire.
00:21:39.760 Still being led by Bernie Sanders.
00:21:42.380 What happens to Bernie Sanders now?
00:21:45.440 Just Bernie Sanders is 40 years older than Buttigieg.
00:21:50.440 40.
00:21:51.220 4-0.
00:21:51.800 All right?
00:21:53.240 Now, there's no way that the Democratic Party is going to allow Bernie Sanders to run against Donald Trump.
00:22:00.200 No way.
00:22:00.800 It's not going to happen.
00:22:01.920 All right?
00:22:02.640 So, Trump wants to run against Sanders.
00:22:06.940 That's why Trump's running around going, oh, they're going to fix it against Bernie again.
00:22:10.740 Because he wants Bernie as an opponent.
00:22:13.360 And after the break, I know you have to take one because you have to sell stuff.
00:22:17.540 I talked with Donald Trump two days ago because I had to clarify some things.
00:22:22.360 I'm actually doing reporting on this whole impeachment and campaign.
00:22:26.860 But he wants to run against Sanders because Minnie Mike, the mayor of Bloomberg, give him a much tougher time than Sanders would.
00:22:36.440 Now, Buttigieg, nobody thinks he's going to be the nominee of the Democratic Party.
00:22:42.260 It would be almost a miracle for him to get it.
00:22:44.280 But I think Minnie Mike would put him as second.
00:22:47.840 I think it would be a Bloomberg Buttigieg ticket.
00:22:50.760 So, that's possible.
00:22:52.680 And that's what's on the horizon.
00:22:54.320 All right.
00:22:54.640 But Bernie...
00:22:55.220 Go ahead.
00:22:55.940 Go ahead.
00:22:57.060 But Bernie...
00:22:57.680 So, Bill O'Reilly, you know, we were talking that if you wanted to pick a candidate to run against, I would want Trump to run against Bernie Sanders.
00:23:13.520 Because I think it would be fun.
00:23:15.260 I think he would be...
00:23:16.220 Yeah, Trump running against Bernie Sanders, I think, would be fun.
00:23:18.920 I think he would...
00:23:20.040 It would be eye-opening.
00:23:22.120 And I also think it would be a landslide.
00:23:23.800 But, however, if Bernie Sanders is the nominee, the flight of money in this country will be devastating, even in the build-up.
00:23:35.760 And anything could go wrong.
00:23:37.840 I mean, I don't want to repeat the mistake of, that guy would never be president.
00:23:43.080 Because that's what every...
00:23:45.000 That's why they wanted Donald Trump to run against Hillary Clinton.
00:23:48.500 You don't know.
00:23:50.340 So, who would you pick?
00:23:51.920 Because the consequence of a Bernie Sanders win, do you agree, is catastrophic for our country?
00:24:02.260 Depression.
00:24:03.240 Yeah.
00:24:03.700 Not recession.
00:24:04.780 Depression.
00:24:05.080 Depression.
00:24:06.280 So, Americans don't pay close attention to politics.
00:24:11.140 I mean, you know, obviously you and I make our living doing it.
00:24:14.420 And the people listening to this program do pay attention.
00:24:17.360 But most don't.
00:24:18.840 So, there you go Bernie Sanders.
00:24:19.840 They don't really know what Bernie Sanders stands for.
00:24:22.320 But they do know if they have a retirement account or a college fund account that is invested in stocks and bonds.
00:24:31.400 They know that.
00:24:33.040 Bernie Sanders gets elected.
00:24:36.020 Your retirement account gets cut in half.
00:24:38.300 I think there's a chance that your stock market gets cut in half if he is the nominee and he looks like it's a...
00:24:45.940 No, I don't.
00:24:46.220 If it looks like it is close.
00:24:48.280 Bill, I'm not waiting until he's elected to take my money out.
00:24:51.740 I'll take my money out if it looks like he might be.
00:24:55.380 I'm not going to wait.
00:24:56.840 That's what all the chumps would do.
00:24:58.240 But the polls are not going to show him.
00:25:02.420 Once it's defined that he would be the nominee, then you're going to start to see reality kick in.
00:25:09.340 And people are going, yeah, I really don't want to be Venezuela.
00:25:13.060 You know, in the State of the Union, they brought in the opposition leader for Venezuela to be in a crowd.
00:25:18.520 Right?
00:25:18.880 Remember that?
00:25:19.620 Yep.
00:25:19.760 Okay, then why?
00:25:21.580 Why?
00:25:22.080 Why would they do that?
00:25:23.160 There's no reason on earth.
00:25:25.040 Nobody cares about Venezuela.
00:25:26.840 Nobody knows what's happening there.
00:25:28.480 The reason they did it subliminally was to tie the Democratic Party to Venezuela socialism.
00:25:35.220 Exactly right.
00:25:35.820 That's why they did it.
00:25:36.820 Yes.
00:25:37.220 Okay?
00:25:38.060 So the Republican Trump campaign way ahead on this issue.
00:25:42.800 Now, the problem is that the press won't honestly report on Bernie Sanders.
00:25:47.460 He's a kindly old godfather.
00:25:49.120 He's not going to hurt anybody, whereas you're absolutely correct.
00:25:53.340 If you ever got power, the flight of money, capital, and actual people leaving the United States would cause a tremendous recession that would lead to a depression.
00:26:06.440 Bernie Sanders can't run anything.
00:26:08.840 He's never got one piece of legislation passed in the Senate.
00:26:12.980 Not one.
00:26:14.260 Ever.
00:26:15.260 That's what Hillary Clinton was screaming about.
00:26:17.200 And he's got himself a millionaire status by never having a job in the private sector.
00:26:24.280 Ever.
00:26:25.300 Yet he's a millionaire with pretty nice properties.
00:26:28.560 And we investigated and found out it was all political patronage.
00:26:32.760 Yeah.
00:26:33.080 He's Hunter Biden.
00:26:34.780 Right?
00:26:35.000 But the press isn't going to report any of that.
00:26:37.240 Right.
00:26:37.660 We have in this country not a free press any longer.
00:26:40.920 We have an ideological press.
00:26:43.120 All right.
00:26:43.760 Let me switch to the State of the Union.
00:26:46.340 And first, let's just...
00:26:48.460 I thought it was a new standard for the State of the Union.
00:26:55.760 You could tell the president has been in television and marketing his whole life.
00:27:00.040 It was brilliantly orchestrated.
00:27:02.460 It was entertaining.
00:27:03.940 It was fun.
00:27:04.940 I was in the room, as you know, that night, Bill, and it was filled with hatred, unlike I have ever felt before.
00:27:13.680 And you saw it with Nancy Pelosi, but I saw it from the House the whole time.
00:27:20.240 They hate him.
00:27:22.380 Not like it was last year.
00:27:24.420 They hate him.
00:27:27.440 Because he's winning.
00:27:28.940 That's why that speech written by Stephen Miller, who's brilliant, brilliant, was precise.
00:27:40.520 It put the president in a position of authority, and then they orchestrated it and illustrated it with seven very touching people and situations
00:27:55.180 that were immediately resolved, just like you do on reality TV.
00:28:00.640 It was right out of The Apprentice.
00:28:02.580 Immediately resolved them.
00:28:04.340 All right?
00:28:05.100 Here's the general.
00:28:05.960 We just promoted him.
00:28:07.180 Here's the little kid.
00:28:08.540 We're going to give her her private school scholarship.
00:28:12.080 That was like one after the other.
00:28:13.480 Here's Rush Limbaugh.
00:28:14.680 Here's a medal of freedom.
00:28:17.400 Here's the soldier's wife.
00:28:20.180 Here's the soldier.
00:28:20.940 I mean, I honestly, you don't need Oprah Winfrey because he's already done it.
00:28:27.420 You got a car, and you got a car, and you got a car.
00:28:30.740 That's right.
00:28:31.520 It was Oprah on steroids.
00:28:34.080 Right.
00:28:34.660 And there was a payoff to it.
00:28:37.920 Right.
00:28:38.280 It was a payoff, payoff, payoff, payoff.
00:28:40.640 So that's why Pelosi ripped the script up, because Pelosi was sitting there and didn't know what to do because it was working.
00:28:48.540 And they didn't know what to applaud for.
00:28:51.980 They didn't know it.
00:28:52.700 They didn't know anything.
00:28:53.880 Yeah.
00:28:54.140 And they just looked like a bunch of fifth graders whose parents just told them they weren't going to the movies.
00:29:03.860 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:29:38.080 Just looking over the comments that came in from last night's show.
00:29:41.760 Imagine if our mainstream media did this level of reporting and investigation.
00:29:46.720 Imagine how much corruption they could eliminate.
00:29:49.200 It's almost as if that's what the founders wanted.
00:29:52.840 Leon wrote, Glenn, let me start by saying I was raised in California, but I'm a no-nonsense, straight-shooting, physically hard-working 50-year-old man.
00:30:00.860 And I am not quick to give compliments unless they are due to the work you have been doing, you and your staff.
00:30:07.900 You've been doing for a long time now.
00:30:09.600 It's truly amazing.
00:30:10.520 If anyone deserves an award, the highest award for journalism, it would be you and your team.
00:30:15.260 You call it like it is.
00:30:17.620 You speak the truth that you've uncovered even way back when you first covered the Federal Reserve and so many other amazing topics.
00:30:24.940 Thank you for what you have done.
00:30:28.040 Incredible Journalism writes, Candace, I'm truly speechless.
00:30:31.620 Thank you for not giving up on these stories like we see so often in the mainstream media.
00:30:36.140 Thanks for the incredible work put into this.
00:30:38.340 Great presentation, Glenn, at approximately 46.57 into your special, you presented a newspaper article that cites investigative journalist Nashi Groshy.
00:30:53.680 You should know, because I am from Ukraine, Nashi Groshy is not the name of a person.
00:31:00.480 It literally means our money in Ukrainian.
00:31:04.160 Thank you for doing this.
00:31:05.000 A lot of people from Ukraine were watching the story last night.
00:31:09.420 I will say, too, that Nashi Groshy would be a great name.
00:31:12.340 It would be, wouldn't it?
00:31:12.980 That's a freaking solid name right there.
00:31:14.920 Yeah, I think so.
00:31:15.480 Let's go to reporter, Nashi Groshy.
00:31:16.600 Nashi?
00:31:18.140 Listen to this one.
00:31:19.540 Wow, this is so powerful.
00:31:21.720 I'm a Ukrainian native, and I didn't know half of this.
00:31:26.280 Where is your 1.8 billion?
00:31:28.920 And we drew the conclusion last night.
00:31:32.120 Now, this is our conclusion.
00:31:34.220 You'll have to make your own mind up on it.
00:31:37.700 But it is the most logical scenario that explains what we laid out last night is the Obama administration was running a secret war against Russia.
00:31:55.360 A hot war.
00:31:58.360 And our 1.8 billion dollars, which, by the way, when they say we have missing 1.8 billion dollars, do you know what that 1.8 billion dollars was for?
00:32:07.400 How much did that just piss you off, Stu, when you found that out?
00:32:09.760 I mean, the whole thing has nonstop examples of stuff that shouldn't happen.
00:32:16.760 Right.
00:32:16.980 So the 1.8 billion dollars that is missing was raised by John Kerry and Joe Biden.
00:32:26.120 They got Congress to pass this aid money to bail out the Ukrainian banks.
00:32:31.440 Wow.
00:32:33.440 I thought it was bad when we were bailing out our banks.
00:32:37.220 But now they're using your taxpayer dollars to bail out the Ukrainian banks.
00:32:41.720 So that 1.8 billion dollars was put into Pravat Bank.
00:32:47.260 And the guy who is the largest shareholder and the founder of Pravat Bank is a guy named Kolomoisky.
00:32:56.900 He is he's Tony Soprano and Jason Buttrell is with us.
00:33:02.820 And he is our chief researcher and head writer and has been overseeing all the research on this one.
00:33:08.540 First of all, fantastic job.
00:33:11.620 Thanks.
00:33:12.040 Fantastic job.
00:33:13.040 Explain who Kolomoisky is, because we knew who he was.
00:33:18.640 We knew he was with Burisma and, you know, one of the larger shareholders there.
00:33:23.200 And we knew that he ran the bank.
00:33:25.520 And we knew also that he was on a pretty much a do not fly list.
00:33:29.260 Don't do business with list.
00:33:31.280 He couldn't come to the United States.
00:33:33.460 Everyone knew who he was.
00:33:35.500 We thought that was just he's a bad, shady businessman.
00:33:38.880 That's not who he is.
00:33:40.080 Yeah, there's bad, shady businessmen and the bad, shady businessmen in Ukraine seem to be about 98 to 99 percent of all of them.
00:33:48.800 So they've all got something weird with them.
00:33:51.060 But this guy, Kolomoisky, is like the king of oligarchs.
00:33:55.060 And when we say oligarch, you know, we mean Tony Soprano.
00:33:58.020 That's what we're talking about.
00:33:58.880 He was on this do not fly list over here because, as you were pointing out, he was using intimidation tactics.
00:34:07.480 Usually he was arming gangs in the streets to intimidate rivals.
00:34:12.100 And that included supplying them with guns, supplying them with whatever, including chainsaws.
00:34:16.800 He was implicated in beheadings within the country.
00:34:21.480 This is a bad guy.
00:34:23.220 Yeah.
00:34:23.520 And this is headings.
00:34:24.360 Can you imagine this is when you say, hey, he's a shady businessman.
00:34:29.220 Think of somebody you think is a shady businessman.
00:34:31.400 You think white collar crime.
00:34:32.720 Right.
00:34:33.000 Something like that.
00:34:33.580 Like Bernie Madoff or something.
00:34:35.400 Right.
00:34:35.700 This is a guy who was buying chainsaws.
00:34:38.900 So his his group could go out and behead people with chainsaws because he didn't like the way they were doing business.
00:34:48.480 You know what I'm saying?
00:34:49.760 Wow.
00:34:50.480 That's a whole different league.
00:34:52.940 Now, it's his bank that we deposited the one point eight billion dollars into.
00:34:59.020 It's his bank that then sent that overseas to several different countries, but all into his shell businesses.
00:35:10.820 That money was then laundered and just I mean, it bounced all over the world.
00:35:17.240 Now, the reason why this is important is because a Hunter Biden was working with this guy.
00:35:23.820 Joe Biden cleared this guy's name.
00:35:25.960 And honestly, I want to look at this and do what the mainstream media would never do for me, would never do for for Rush.
00:35:34.180 They'd never do for Trump.
00:35:36.620 Nobody.
00:35:37.820 Let me look at this from the perspective of Joe Biden for a second.
00:35:44.800 How much is your son's life worth?
00:35:47.700 Is your son's life worth three million dollars?
00:35:51.600 I would say no.
00:35:53.060 It's worth a lot more than that.
00:35:54.560 If if if this was just about enriching your family, there's easier ways to do it.
00:36:03.480 He's been doing it in China.
00:36:04.760 Why would you allow your son to be involved?
00:36:10.740 And this we had the documents from Latvia.
00:36:13.680 The Latvian government issued a letter to Ukraine saying, hey, there's massive amounts of money being laundered through Latvia and it involves Hunter Biden and Burisma.
00:36:26.040 OK, had you heard that before?
00:36:28.580 Why would you let your son be involved with a guy who cuts people's heads off with chainsaws?
00:36:35.500 That just doesn't make any sense to me.
00:36:38.600 Unless it was more than just the money.
00:36:42.700 You give your son three million dollars to help you out on this project.
00:36:46.680 So you're going to get paid for it, son.
00:36:49.460 But this is a bigger deal.
00:36:51.460 And it explains why Joe Biden apparently, according to Hunter, the only conversation they had was, are you sure?
00:37:00.320 Are you sure you know what you're doing with this?
00:37:02.780 That's that's almost like the speech that you give.
00:37:07.580 You know, when you when you're the father and you're sending a son in and the son's been given instructions and he's going on a death mission.
00:37:16.480 And he has a chance to escape, most likely will, but it's going to be dicey.
00:37:21.420 That's that movie scene where the father works up, walks up to the son.
00:37:25.220 They don't even have to talk about what the mission is because they both know.
00:37:29.160 Are you sure you know what you're doing?
00:37:31.820 Yes, dad, I do.
00:37:34.540 OK.
00:37:36.380 I I believe because Kolomowski was explain the governorship that he was given after at the same time he was being cleared by us and given a good, clean bill of health for the rest of the world.
00:37:50.020 This is this is amazing.
00:37:50.980 And I don't know how no one has this is multiple things.
00:37:54.740 When we did this investigation, we're like, I cannot believe this hasn't been reported in mass.
00:37:58.800 But Kolomowski was obviously a rich oligarch.
00:38:02.220 He was like we said, the king of oligarchs.
00:38:03.940 He owned the biggest media company.
00:38:05.680 He owned the biggest independent gas company and on and on and on down the line.
00:38:10.020 And the bank.
00:38:10.720 And the bank.
00:38:11.520 And the largest bank.
00:38:12.900 Yeah.
00:38:12.940 But during that time, 2014, 2015, Poroshenko was looking for these rich oligarchs to fund the war against Russia.
00:38:23.680 So because they were completely broke.
00:38:25.720 They had they had no money.
00:38:27.520 They had no money.
00:38:28.340 That's why we had to bail out their banks.
00:38:30.200 They were spending every year.
00:38:32.680 Four billion was allotted for the Ukrainian military.
00:38:35.900 That's all they had.
00:38:36.880 They just had four billion.
00:38:37.860 But these oligarchs were their net worth was much more than that four billion.
00:38:43.640 So he was like, I'm going to take these rich oligarchs that we've had that are obviously corrupt, but I'm going to weaponize them.
00:38:48.340 So Kolomoisky had this very large region in eastern Ukraine that really backs right up to where the war was breaking out in eastern Ukraine.
00:38:59.020 So if you want a front line, Kolomoisky's region is the front line.
00:39:03.320 So he appoints him governor for the very specific purpose of funding that war effort in that region.
00:39:10.280 We know for a fact that millions flowed.
00:39:12.940 I'm not sure which bank accounts, which I'm hoping Congress can help us out on that.
00:39:16.500 But we know that millions flowed to buy equipment, fuel.
00:39:20.800 I've seen full-on spreadsheets, attires, salaries for militias.
00:39:27.420 One of the militias, the largest, was right there in his district, Dnipro, which you pointed out last night.
00:39:32.100 So what's crazy about this is these are the things we can find.
00:39:35.660 What are the things that we can't find?
00:39:38.540 Who is buying the guns?
00:39:41.200 Who is buying the military equipment?
00:39:44.140 Where did it come from?
00:39:45.460 Now, this guy is the guy that we were supposedly trying to bail out the bank.
00:39:51.300 But as soon as we deposited the $1.8 billion, that money was laundered and gone to him.
00:39:58.660 So he stole that money.
00:40:01.180 And we don't care about it.
00:40:02.600 We showed you last night a State Department letter that says,
00:40:05.080 don't look into this to the special prosecutor.
00:40:07.080 Don't look into this.
00:40:07.960 You don't need to look into this.
00:40:09.420 That information is out there.
00:40:10.900 You mentioned Nashi Groshi.
00:40:13.700 That is an awesome name.
00:40:16.360 So their work has been cited all over the place in Ukraine.
00:40:19.960 You won't find any of it in the West.
00:40:22.120 You won't find it anywhere.
00:40:23.060 They used it in court proceedings out there in Ukraine.
00:40:26.800 They were very specific in showing how, like I said,
00:40:29.300 they identified 42 shell companies, all leading back to Kolomoisky, all over the world.
00:40:36.700 Now, this information is hard to find, and I've looked at it,
00:40:40.660 because every time they say, okay, we know the money went directly to such and such shell company in Belize,
00:40:45.820 they would instantly re-tag that money as being for something else.
00:40:50.400 I don't know, buying wrenches in El Salvador or something like that.
00:40:54.240 And it would bounce over there.
00:40:55.180 And it would bounce to a different shell company, also on Nikola Moysky.
00:40:58.180 But every time people like me or our colleagues try to pin down that cash or to a company,
00:41:05.120 it gets reset as something else and sent to another company.
00:41:09.800 That's how it works.
00:41:11.080 Now, that's what we, and especially if you're a congressman or senator right now,
00:41:14.480 this is what we need help with.
00:41:15.940 We need to know, we need help through the Treasury to find out where that cash went.
00:41:19.980 We need to follow that money, because I've got a very strong suspicion
00:41:24.120 a lot of that went flying back to eastern Ukraine to buy arms.
00:41:28.740 In 2014, 2015 time.
00:41:30.540 Look, this is what we were doing in Benghazi.
00:41:32.440 We were arming what became ISIS.
00:41:36.040 This is the way the Obama administration was working.
00:41:39.460 And this was a secret war.
00:41:41.480 And it wasn't secret.
00:41:42.460 I can guarantee you, we deposit $1.8 billion into a corrupt bank and it disappears.
00:41:51.100 Putin is not saying, gee, I wonder what happened.
00:41:54.880 Oh, they had their money still.
00:41:56.160 He knows exactly whose money, whose pocket that money goes into.
00:42:00.540 And he knows that that's the guy that's building armies.
00:42:03.720 We were at war with Russia.
00:42:06.380 You want to know why they were hammering us?
00:42:08.760 Why they're acting like we're at war?
00:42:10.340 Because we are at war.
00:42:12.820 And it's without Congress knowing.
00:42:16.040 No congressional oversight or approval.
00:42:19.320 It was money laundering of your tax dollars to fight a war you didn't even know about.
00:42:26.140 That's the special.
00:42:28.340 And I want you to watch it.
00:42:29.800 I would love for you to hashtag and tweet about it and spread it.
00:42:34.760 We'd like you to use the hashtag, Ukraine, the final piece, P-I-E-C-E.
00:42:42.440 Some people were saying the final piece, P-E-A-C-E.
00:42:45.420 It's not.
00:42:45.980 Final piece.
00:42:47.780 Hashtag Ukraine, the final piece.
00:42:50.020 Tweet that out.
00:42:50.860 Let's get that trending.
00:42:51.940 It was trending at number two last night nationally.
00:42:54.840 And probably would have been number one because it was hashtag with misspellings in it, like number 17 and number 14 as well.
00:43:05.100 So Ukraine, the final piece.
00:43:08.440 Hashtag that.
00:43:09.480 All this information is going to Grassley and Johnson because they are already apparently on some of this stuff.
00:43:17.460 And it needs to be investigated.
00:43:20.380 And people need to pay for it and go to jail.
00:43:23.100 Also, please also hashtag it Nashi Gashi.
00:43:27.140 That's important.
00:43:28.500 He's a great guy.
00:43:29.380 Yeah.
00:43:29.620 He's a great guy.
00:43:30.440 I loved Nashi and Gashi go to White Castle.
00:43:32.440 Yeah.
00:43:32.640 Thank you so much.
