00:00:32.240 The crash in Washington, D.C. last night and why Tulsi Gabbard needs to be confirmed.
00:00:36.820 They're actually related.
00:00:38.380 Chip Roy is with us to talk about all of the different nominations and how they're going.
00:00:43.940 Jeff Parker is with us from Parker Vision.
00:00:46.240 An exclusive story that is 25 years in the making about how Qualcomm, Eric Holder, the Obama administration,
00:00:58.040 screwed a small entrepreneur who changed technology, literally changed it for the entire world.
00:01:09.240 The story's just coming out because he believes he can get a fair shake now.
00:01:13.720 You're going to hear it first on today's podcast.
00:01:16.220 My Patriot Supply, the sad and ugly truth is that nobody, not even President Trump and his incoming administration,

00:01:30.680 When a crisis hits, food is almost always the first casualty.

00:01:35.720 And as soon as things get scary, panic buying sets in.
00:01:39.040 Always be prepared for the worst while hoping for the best.
00:01:41.980 Storing emergency food in your home is the right thing to do.
00:01:44.760 And we still live in crazy times and your family couldn't need it.

00:02:18.680 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:23.180 All right, I want to start with two stories.
00:02:25.460 First, let's start with a plane crash in Washington, D.C.
00:02:28.960 First thing that has to be said is pray for the families and the rescue workers.
00:02:34.040 It is horrible.
00:02:37.140 An experienced pilot of a passenger jet collided with what they're saying is a fairly experienced crew of a Blackhawk helicopter.
00:02:48.720 There appear to be no survivors.
00:02:50.380 67 people believed to be dead.
00:02:53.040 They are still diving in the icy, icy waters of the Potomac.
00:02:58.960 The Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C. is a very dangerous airport.
00:03:07.120 So pray for everybody involved.
00:03:09.820 Now, it's too early to assign any blame, but the usual is happening in the world of politics.
00:03:14.900 Donald Trump is responsible, blah, blah, blah.
00:03:16.800 But we do know that there is a problem, a real problem, with our air traffic control system.
00:03:23.680 Nobody has talked about it.
00:03:25.120 Nobody in the press wants to talk about it.
00:03:27.020 But there have been several near misses, and something is happening.
00:03:31.840 Now, in the end, it may not be this.
00:03:34.700 But I want to bring this up because Stu did a whole Blaze original documentary on the dangerous conditions that are currently par for the course in our control towers.
00:03:43.640 Yeah, it was called Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster, which turned out to be 70 days from when we released it.
00:03:51.000 You know, we talked about a lot of this.
00:03:52.560 We don't know the cause, obviously.
00:03:53.840 There's still a lot of investigation to do.
00:03:55.680 But, you know, you're talking about these air traffic controllers are overworked and understaffed.
00:04:02.720 And, you know, we, of course, there was lots of concerns about things like DEI.
00:04:07.360 No idea at this point whether that has anything to do with it.
00:04:10.600 But one thing we did know and did see over and over again in the documentary is how many times we've had close calls over the past couple of years.
00:04:18.420 It's the pace has picked up like crazy.
00:04:20.560 And the fact that we had gone all of these years without one of these types of incidents was a miracle.
00:04:26.440 I mean, it was bound to happen.
00:04:28.420 And, you know, we're still there's still a lot of investigation to find out.
00:04:32.120 But this is, you know, America's like busiest runway.
00:04:35.660 This is, you know.
00:04:36.380 And one of our shorter runways.
00:04:38.560 Shorter runways.
00:04:39.940 It's dangerous.
00:04:40.920 And we were just there.
00:04:41.640 I just took off from that airport a week or two ago.
00:04:44.880 And it is tight.
00:04:46.420 Everything around there is really, really tight.
00:04:48.260 It's amazing that that many helicopters could go up and down that river and not have more of these incidents.
00:04:53.920 It's very scary.
00:04:54.700 Here is the audio from the control tower.
00:04:57.660 F-2-5-2-3-2-3-1-7.
00:05:11.460 Fire command.
00:05:13.240 The accident happened in the river.
00:05:15.440 Both the helicopter and the plane crashed in the river.
00:05:18.820 It's east of the approach end of runway 3-3.
00:05:26.520 Is the airfield closed?
00:05:28.400 Yes, the airfield is closed.
00:05:30.340 The airfield is closed.
00:05:31.240 Runways as well?
00:05:32.560 Yes.
00:05:32.960 All runways are closed.
00:05:34.160 Nobody's landing.
00:05:34.880 No one's moving at all.
00:05:35.880 Our government is out of control.
00:05:40.880 And we all know this.
00:05:42.000 If you're being honest with yourself, we know this.
00:05:45.120 Our government has given billions of dollars out in COVID fraud.
00:05:49.180 They were fraudulent with what they even said about COVID.
00:05:54.360 When they gave all that money out, nobody caught it.
00:05:57.000 We're not going to get it back.
00:05:58.760 Hundreds of billions of dollars at the Pentagon has just been misplaced.
00:06:02.720 They've done like 18 audits.
00:06:04.900 They just have no idea where they put, you know, $600 billion.
00:06:10.520 Our Navy was told to build a dock to distribute aid to the Palestinians.
00:06:15.340 And after millions of dollars, it failed.
00:06:18.440 Our extraction from Afghanistan, everything we have touched, not just in the last four years,
00:06:28.400 but everything that we have touched from the financial situation that our government was involved in, our health care,
00:06:36.380 everything over the last few decades has revealed incompetence, graft, stupidity, waste,
00:06:44.240 and I think intentional sabotage of our nation's will, wealth, and reputation.
00:06:49.680 But we don't have to go over that because that's why Donald Trump was elected.
00:06:56.260 But as I told you before, we have many dark days ahead of us.
00:07:02.020 But then if we allow this administration to do what they promised,
00:07:07.400 the clouds will break and it will be a morning in America again,
00:07:11.160 and we will be able to write a new chapter.
00:07:13.760 Let me give you this.
00:07:20.720 You and I both know something deeply, deeply wrong with our intelligence agencies in this country.
00:07:27.140 And every American, I don't care who you voted for,
00:07:29.900 every American should be concerned about this.
00:07:32.900 Because these agencies were supposed to be on the front line of our defense,
00:07:37.480 keeping us safe from foreign threats,
00:07:39.980 working in the shadows to protect the freedoms that we all take for granted.
00:07:44.180 That was the idea.
00:07:47.340 But I don't know when it changed, but it changed.
00:07:50.560 Somewhere along the way, the people trusted to defend our Constitution and our rule of law
00:07:56.020 started seeing the American people as the very people they swore to protect as the enemy.
00:08:04.760 You've seen it.
00:08:05.640 You may have even felt it personally.
00:08:10.180 The agencies that are supposed to protect us from threats abroad have turned inward.
00:08:15.580 Instead of focusing on real dangers like China's economic warfare,
00:08:21.980 cyber threats, terrorist networks,
00:08:24.340 they've been caught spying on American citizens,
00:08:28.460 censoring their dissent, manipulating public perception.
00:08:32.020 The intelligence community, whether intentionally or through sheer institutional rot,
00:08:41.640 has become a political weapon, and you cannot deny it.
00:08:46.660 This is not just some theory.
00:08:49.200 You don't have to go digging into the shadows to find proof.
00:08:52.020 You don't have to listen to any conspiracy theories.
00:08:54.540 It's right there in plain sight.
00:08:56.900 We watched intelligence officials interfere with the elections.
00:09:01.340 They buried stories that were inconvenient for the powerful.
00:09:04.860 They targeted sitting presidents.
00:09:06.960 They excused other sitting presidents.
00:09:09.660 And if you spoke out against it, those people became a target.
00:09:14.340 The best example is, well, Donald Trump.
00:09:19.460 But the next one is Tulsi Gabbard.
00:09:21.620 She was a Democrat.
00:09:23.320 You probably remember the moment she went from being a rising star in Washington
00:09:27.620 to a threat that had to be destroyed.
00:09:30.020 It wasn't when she served as a Democrat in Congress.
00:09:33.800 It wasn't when she deployed to Iraq and served honorably.
00:09:38.200 It was when she started asking questions and refused to fall in line.
00:09:43.860 When she called out the war machine, they smeared her.
00:09:48.860 She became a traitor when she started to question the political machine.
00:09:54.160 And when she challenged the intelligence community's narratives,
00:09:58.240 she was labeled a Russian asset almost immediately.
00:10:02.000 When she stood up to the establishment, she was quietly and without cause
00:10:07.060 placed on a government terror watch list.
00:10:10.380 Now think about that for a second.
00:10:12.760 Somebody who is a lieutenant colonel, I believe,
00:10:18.660 served honorably, I believe still serves,
00:10:22.540 ran for president of the United States as a Democrat,
00:10:27.800 a sitting member of Congress,
00:10:30.120 a woman who swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution,
00:10:34.360 labeled as a potential terrorist by the institutions
00:10:38.240 that are supposed to defend American democracy.
00:10:43.660 That's out of control.
00:10:45.660 You know it and I know it.
00:10:46.860 But she, despite everything they threw at her,
00:10:53.020 did not back down.
00:10:54.680 She fought back.
00:10:57.960 She stood.
00:11:00.580 She refused to stop asking questions.
00:11:05.000 That is exactly why she needs to be confirmed
00:11:08.640 as the director of national intelligence.
00:11:10.600 She is a proven warrior that has shown she is not afraid
00:11:15.960 to take a bullet in the field
00:11:18.500 or a metaphorical or physical bullet
00:11:24.540 here in the country to defend our way of life,
00:11:28.660 to ask the questions that must be asked.
00:11:33.080 The person leading the intelligence community right now
00:11:36.080 should not be and cannot be another Washington insider.
00:11:39.500 It cannot be somebody who spent their career
00:11:42.500 moving from one agency to another.
00:11:45.020 It cannot be somebody who has just made
00:11:47.000 all the right connections,
00:11:48.400 learned to play the game.
00:11:50.500 It must be someone who has seen the system
00:11:54.140 from both the inside and the outside
00:11:57.440 and truly understands, in her case, firsthand
00:12:00.960 how broken it is because she was targeted by it.
00:12:06.560 Believe me, there is a difference
00:12:08.580 between the Donald Trump of 2016
00:12:10.560 and the Trump of 2024.
00:12:13.320 What is it?
00:12:14.640 He saw the machine from the inside and the outside
00:12:17.720 and it tried to destroy him.
00:12:19.840 So he knows how dangerous it is.
00:12:24.120 Much of this in our country
00:12:26.400 is coming from black ops,
00:12:30.220 money that just is never accounted for,
00:12:33.580 our intelligence agency,
00:12:35.260 turning all of the weapons,
00:12:37.400 in coordination with five eyes,
00:12:39.540 on you.
00:12:43.900 You know, when I talk to Donald Trump,
00:12:45.900 I feel the same way I feel about Tulsi Gabbard.
00:12:50.460 When Donald Trump was on the stage
00:12:52.680 in Pennsylvania,
00:12:55.120 bleeding,
00:12:56.460 he told me,
00:12:58.240 his only thought was,
00:12:59.500 this is pathetic,
00:13:00.580 get up.
00:13:01.140 Don't show them weakness.
00:13:04.200 Get up.
00:13:05.440 And he got up and said,
00:13:07.000 fight.
00:13:08.080 I feel the same way about Tulsi Gabbard.
00:13:11.940 She has been under the gun
00:13:14.760 and she has had the courage
00:13:17.320 to stand up and face it
00:13:19.520 and continue to say it to their face.
00:13:22.200 You want somebody
00:13:26.480 that has the courage
00:13:27.340 to make sure that
00:13:28.380 what happened to them
00:13:29.980 never happens to you?
00:13:32.320 Tulsi Gabbard is that person.
00:13:34.920 She knows what needs to be fixed.
00:13:37.560 She knows these agencies
00:13:39.080 have been abused.
00:13:41.280 And unlike the career bureaucrats
00:13:43.760 who see reform
00:13:45.420 as nothing but a talking point,
00:13:47.820 she actually has the will
00:13:49.480 to do something about it.
00:13:50.920 Now think about
00:13:52.000 what that means to you.
00:13:54.420 A director of national intelligence
00:13:56.500 that isn't owned by a party,
00:13:59.040 left or right,
00:14:01.240 who isn't loyal
00:14:03.300 to an administration,
00:14:04.960 Biden or Trump,
00:14:07.080 but is loyal to the truth,
00:14:10.060 who has a record of saying,
00:14:12.180 you know what,
00:14:12.560 I was wrong about that,
00:14:14.380 who isn't interested
00:14:17.980 in maintaining the status quo,
00:14:19.800 but in restoring
00:14:21.380 intelligence agencies
00:14:22.600 to what they were meant to be
00:14:24.220 and if not,
00:14:25.320 shut them down.
00:14:27.160 They are supposed to be
00:14:28.100 defenders of the American people
00:14:29.680 and our Constitution,
00:14:31.200 not enforcers of an agenda.
00:14:33.440 This is not about left or right.
00:14:35.680 It is about whether you believe
00:14:37.300 the intelligence agencies
00:14:38.920 should be used
00:14:39.800 to protect the country
00:14:41.320 or control the country.
00:14:43.680 whether you think
00:14:45.760 these agencies
00:14:46.480 should work for you
00:14:47.680 or whether they should
00:14:48.900 have to live in fear
00:14:51.380 that one day
00:14:52.340 they might,
00:14:53.540 might decide
00:14:55.060 that you're a problem.
00:14:56.040 I know because
00:14:58.780 I've talked to senators
00:14:59.760 and I've talked to congressmen
00:15:01.100 who have told me
00:15:02.320 in the dead of night
00:15:03.580 with no cell phones
00:15:04.840 around and outdoors,
00:15:06.620 they are afraid
00:15:07.920 of the intelligence agencies
00:15:09.740 because they're being watched
00:15:11.500 and monitored
00:15:12.320 and they feel under threat.
00:15:15.680 Now the Senate today
00:15:17.060 is going to try to make this
00:15:18.420 all about politics.
00:15:19.420 They'll ask all of the stupid
00:15:20.660 questions like yesterday,
00:15:21.820 are you for onesies or not?
00:15:24.780 They'll pretend
00:15:25.840 they're vetting her
00:15:26.660 like any other nominee.
00:15:27.920 But what they're really deciding
00:15:29.740 is whether they want somebody
00:15:31.880 in that position
00:15:32.680 who will challenge the system
00:15:34.500 or just let sleeping dogs lie.
00:15:39.980 Do you want somebody
00:15:41.040 who does that
00:15:41.960 or who will shine the light
00:15:43.640 where the light
00:15:44.780 isn't supposed to be shined?
00:15:48.560 Do you want somebody
00:15:50.040 who can be bullied?
00:15:51.820 can be compromised?
00:15:52.960 Or do you want somebody
00:15:54.000 who cannot be bullied,
00:15:56.120 bought,
00:15:56.580 or blackmailed
00:15:57.480 into compliance?
00:15:58.860 If that's what you want,
00:16:00.780 the latter,
00:16:02.400 if you believe
00:16:03.380 intelligence should serve truth,
00:16:06.680 not power,
00:16:08.480 let your senators know
00:16:11.180 Tulsi Gabbard
00:16:12.940 is the only choice.
00:16:15.820 There's always something out there
00:16:17.380 that's going on.
00:16:18.880 You know,
00:16:19.120 it'll keep you down,
00:16:20.140 something.
00:16:20.440 If one of those things
00:16:22.740 is pain,
00:16:24.280 well,
00:16:25.180 don't let it.
00:16:26.020 Don't let it.
00:16:26.620 Well,
00:16:26.820 just get over it.
00:16:27.800 Just buck up,
00:16:28.800 buttercup.
00:16:29.480 Oh,
00:16:29.800 shut.
00:16:31.140 Anybody who says that
00:16:32.040 has never felt real pain
00:16:33.540 and the kind of pain
00:16:35.160 that just will not go away.
00:16:36.580 If you think
00:16:37.260 you've tried everything,
00:16:39.340 pain doesn't keep me down anymore.

00:17:14.440 Now, back to the podcast.
00:17:16.120 This is the best
00:17:16.760 of the Glenn Beck program
00:17:17.660 and we really want
00:17:18.680 to thank you for listening.
00:17:21.680 I want to introduce you
00:17:22.900 to Jeffrey Parker.
00:17:24.660 He's the CEO
00:17:25.940 and chairman
00:17:26.600 of Parker Vision.
00:17:29.000 He has been sitting
00:17:30.140 on this story
00:17:30.900 for a long time.
00:17:32.560 Am I correct
00:17:33.240 on why you haven't
00:17:34.600 said anything?
00:17:35.200 You are correct, Glenn.
00:17:36.560 Okay.
00:17:37.460 We are at the beginning
00:17:38.880 of seeing corruption
00:17:39.860 exposed like never before,
00:17:42.360 I think, in America.
00:17:43.960 This story,
00:17:45.580 first of all,
00:17:46.140 what did you invent
00:17:46.880 that changed the world?
00:17:48.280 So we have a team
00:17:49.720 I pulled together
00:17:50.500 of inventors
00:17:51.140 and we invented
00:17:52.780 the connectivity technology
00:17:54.540 that connects
00:17:55.900 your smartphone
00:17:56.820 to the cell phone tower,
00:17:58.460 connects the Wi-Fi
00:17:59.840 in your home
00:18:00.500 to other devices.
00:18:01.760 It's so small
00:18:03.240 and so efficient
00:18:04.960 that it's what's enabled
00:18:06.540 the tiny little
00:18:07.440 Bluetooth headset
00:18:08.660 that goes in your ear
00:18:09.840 before Parker Vision
00:18:11.940 all these
00:18:12.940 wireless connectivity
00:18:14.220 products
00:18:15.480 had big
00:18:16.380 hundreds of components,
00:18:18.180 a lot of size,
00:18:19.700 low power,
00:18:20.800 I mean,
00:18:21.000 high power consumption,
00:18:22.060 low battery life.
00:18:23.000 Right.
00:18:23.380 And so we were able
00:18:24.200 to put all that
00:18:25.040 on a tiny little computer chip
00:18:26.520 about half the size
00:18:27.780 of your little fingernail.
00:18:29.020 What do you suppose
00:18:29.920 that's worth now?
00:18:30.960 That patent?
00:18:32.740 Oh.
00:18:33.480 Well,
00:18:34.280 many, many, many,
00:18:35.200 many billions
00:18:35.760 if not tens of billions
00:18:36.640 of dollars.
00:18:37.100 Okay.
00:18:37.780 Because it's used
00:18:38.580 by everybody now.
00:18:39.680 There is not
00:18:40.220 a smartphone,
00:18:41.080 a Wi-Fi product,
00:18:41.940 a Bluetooth product,
00:18:42.740 even the radar
00:18:43.340 in your automobile
00:18:44.040 that doesn't use
00:18:44.760 this technology.
00:18:45.520 Okay.
00:18:45.860 So you invented that
00:18:47.140 and you knew
00:18:47.860 you had something big
00:18:49.000 and Qualcomm
00:18:50.420 came to you
00:18:51.220 and said,
00:18:52.960 show us this
00:18:53.660 new technology.
00:18:54.620 Well, actually,
00:18:55.320 we were looking
00:18:55.820 for a partner.
00:18:56.600 Okay.
00:18:56.860 So we approached them
00:18:57.920 and this is around
00:18:59.100 1999,
00:19:00.160 2000.
00:19:01.280 They were,
00:19:02.440 at the time,
00:19:02.880 a much smaller company
00:19:03.820 but growing fast.
00:19:05.060 They were an emerging
00:19:05.660 tech giant
00:19:06.360 and they had the idea
00:19:08.180 of connecting the internet
00:19:09.480 to your cell phone
00:19:10.260 through their standard,
00:19:11.720 which I thought
00:19:12.620 was pretty brilliant.
00:19:13.860 But the problem
00:19:15.420 they had
00:19:15.920 was that the radio
00:19:17.140 transceiver
00:19:17.860 that connected it all
00:19:18.900 was like the size
00:19:20.200 of a small shoebox.
00:19:21.360 Right.
00:19:21.620 So while we were
00:19:22.560 walking around
00:19:23.080 with phones
00:19:23.740 like the size
00:19:24.820 of a candy bar,
00:19:25.740 their phones
00:19:26.420 were like much bigger.
00:19:27.700 Right.
00:19:28.060 And the batteries
00:19:28.660 would last,
00:19:29.380 you know,
00:19:29.620 20 minutes
00:19:30.160 where everybody else
00:19:30.620 is going to the old
00:19:31.520 1990s and 1980s
00:19:33.240 cell phones.
00:19:33.840 Right.
00:19:34.140 Yeah.
00:19:34.640 So we said,
00:19:35.440 oh,
00:19:36.000 here is the
00:19:36.980 connectivity technology
00:19:38.180 that gives their
00:19:39.740 cell phones
00:19:40.700 the ability
00:19:41.840 to compete
00:19:42.640 and yet still
00:19:44.240 have all the features
00:19:45.260 that they were trying
00:19:45.940 to bring to market.
00:19:46.860 And when they saw
00:19:47.600 our chip
00:19:48.180 and tested it
00:19:49.220 in a lab,
00:19:49.880 they were crazy
00:19:52.660 about it.
00:19:53.140 They were like,
00:19:53.500 how are you doing this?
00:19:55.280 Right.
00:19:55.960 So you signed NDAs,
00:19:58.440 you went into
00:19:59.020 negotiation with them
00:20:00.240 and what happened?
00:20:01.140 Glenn,
00:20:01.480 even special NDAs.
00:20:03.060 We were very concerned
00:20:04.500 because we knew
00:20:05.300 what a big breakthrough.
00:20:06.780 I mean,
00:20:06.960 we thought at the time
00:20:07.800 and today even
00:20:08.500 stronger feel
00:20:09.760 this was one
00:20:10.240 of the biggest breakthroughs
00:20:11.320 in wireless communications
00:20:12.980 ever.
00:20:14.040 I mean,
00:20:14.460 for a hundred years
00:20:15.440 we built wireless
00:20:16.400 communications
00:20:16.920 before this technology
00:20:17.900 the same way.
00:20:18.860 Same circuits.
00:20:20.360 So we made them
00:20:21.400 not just sign NDAs,
00:20:22.540 we made each individual
00:20:24.020 who was going to get
00:20:24.940 the disclosure
00:20:25.860 how this technology worked
00:20:27.200 personally sign the NDAs.
00:20:29.120 Where do you live?
00:20:30.160 What's your phone number?
00:20:31.120 We wanted to be able
00:20:31.920 to track
00:20:32.580 and keep it
00:20:34.140 to a very small group
00:20:35.000 of people.
00:20:35.540 And so they
00:20:36.000 didn't like that
00:20:37.120 at the beginning
00:20:37.600 but they eventually
00:20:38.220 said,
00:20:38.560 okay,
00:20:38.680 we'll do it.
00:20:39.160 Okay.
00:20:40.040 And so you go
00:20:41.100 and they test it,
00:20:42.200 they know how it works
00:20:43.480 and when does
00:20:45.180 the negotiation
00:20:46.100 fall apart?
00:20:47.060 Well,
00:20:47.260 here's what's crazy
00:20:48.360 about it.
00:20:48.820 So after they saw
00:20:50.400 the performance
00:20:51.040 they said,
00:20:52.220 we would love
00:20:52.780 to license this
00:20:53.740 and put it
00:20:54.680 in our chips
00:20:55.220 and,
00:20:57.100 but they said
00:20:57.700 we can't license it
00:20:58.640 until we know
00:20:59.020 how it works
00:20:59.500 because we don't know
00:20:59.980 what we're licensing.
00:21:01.800 So we said,
00:21:02.560 okay,
00:21:02.860 you're under
00:21:03.360 this special
00:21:03.800 non-disclosure.
00:21:05.220 We'll do it.
00:21:06.660 We go
00:21:07.440 and we have
00:21:08.060 an off-site meeting
00:21:09.120 with them
00:21:09.640 with just the people
00:21:10.820 in the company
00:21:11.360 who had signed
00:21:11.820 the NDAs
00:21:12.560 and we disclose
00:21:14.180 how we do this
00:21:15.580 and after the first hour
00:21:16.780 of what was
00:21:17.480 a couple-day meeting
00:21:18.380 they stopped the meeting
00:21:20.120 and the guy
00:21:21.620 who was the business
00:21:22.240 development manager
00:21:22.880 takes me out
00:21:23.400 into a hallway
00:21:23.940 and he says to me,
00:21:25.300 wow,
00:21:26.280 you're not going
00:21:27.680 to believe
00:21:28.120 what we thought
00:21:29.100 you had put
00:21:29.540 into that chip
00:21:30.200 and I said,
00:21:31.480 what do you think
00:21:31.840 we put into that chip?
00:21:33.380 We thought you had
00:21:34.140 built a micro machine.
00:21:35.600 A micro machine,
00:21:36.400 Glenn's like
00:21:36.740 little tiny components
00:21:38.240 that move
00:21:39.100 in semiconductors.
00:21:41.220 This is back
00:21:41.700 like in 1999 now
00:21:43.000 and what he didn't
00:21:45.420 contemplate
00:21:46.180 was we had figured
00:21:47.020 out how to do this
00:21:47.920 using standard
00:21:49.600 capacitors,
00:21:51.640 switches,
00:21:52.360 standard electronic
00:21:53.100 components.
00:21:54.260 I mean,
00:21:54.480 this technology
00:21:55.300 could have been built
00:21:56.180 in vacuum tubes
00:21:57.060 100 years earlier.
00:21:58.300 That's how revolutionary
00:21:59.200 it was.
00:22:00.040 Didn't require
00:22:00.680 new materials.
00:22:02.160 So he was explaining,
00:22:03.920 wow,
00:22:04.280 we were so impressed
00:22:05.600 with this.
00:22:06.040 We sure,
00:22:06.460 it had to be something,
00:22:07.660 you know,
00:22:07.860 and like outer space
00:22:09.020 type technology.
00:22:10.380 But now that we know
00:22:11.380 that it's so easy
00:22:12.340 to make anybody.
00:22:12.800 Now that we know,
00:22:13.960 exactly.
00:22:14.600 Right.
00:22:15.180 So we've had
00:22:15.860 this licensing negotiation
00:22:17.420 and every time
00:22:18.800 we got to kind
00:22:19.800 of an agreement point,
00:22:21.380 they would change
00:22:22.000 the deal.
00:22:22.860 And this happened
00:22:23.540 again and again,
00:22:24.860 almost over a year.
00:22:26.820 And at some point
00:22:27.800 I said,
00:22:28.160 you know,
00:22:28.560 I've done business
00:22:29.240 with other companies.
00:22:30.280 I've had relationships
00:22:31.220 with large companies.
00:22:32.140 We brought some
00:22:32.640 of the first semiconductors
00:22:33.700 to heating air
00:22:34.740 conditioning controls
00:22:35.480 and had a partnership
00:22:36.140 with Carrier Corporation
00:22:37.180 and it was great.
00:22:38.680 But this one
00:22:39.380 didn't feel right.
00:22:40.340 And so we went
00:22:41.200 our separate ways.
00:22:43.160 And after that,
00:22:44.840 it was a few years later,
00:22:47.080 they come out
00:22:47.940 with this new lineup
00:22:48.680 of chips for smartphones.
00:22:50.900 And their market share
00:22:52.000 was like around
00:22:52.620 30 some percent
00:22:53.620 and it was actually falling.
00:22:56.080 And they come out
00:22:56.920 with these new chips
00:22:57.720 and they are
00:22:59.260 unbelievable
00:23:00.660 in performance
00:23:01.440 and low power consumption
00:23:02.620 and fast data rates.
00:23:03.720 And I'm looking
00:23:04.200 at these going,
00:23:05.220 what have they got
00:23:06.920 in there?
00:23:08.080 Now,
00:23:08.500 to get into a chip
00:23:09.340 and reverse engineer
00:23:10.140 it to see for sure
00:23:11.140 is like looking
00:23:12.560 for a needle
00:23:13.000 in a haystack.
00:23:14.140 And it can cost you
00:23:14.700 many millions of dollars
00:23:15.540 and you never find out.
00:23:17.100 So we kind of just
00:23:18.180 had to hold our breath
00:23:19.360 and we thought,
00:23:19.920 well,
00:23:20.000 maybe they can't put
00:23:20.660 their own alternative
00:23:21.340 technology.
00:23:22.760 But we couldn't see
00:23:23.820 anything else
00:23:24.960 that they might be doing.
00:23:26.580 A few years go by
00:23:27.620 and a conference paper
00:23:28.920 is published
00:23:29.340 by one of their groups,
00:23:30.580 their engineering groups,
00:23:31.320 and they're bragging
00:23:32.140 about a new cell phone chip
00:23:34.260 where they put
00:23:34.860 an entire third generation
00:23:36.660 cell phone
00:23:37.320 on a tiny chip,
00:23:38.900 the whole thing.
00:23:40.240 Like a cell phone
00:23:40.820 on a chip,
00:23:41.340 everything.
00:23:42.580 And at the heart
00:23:43.320 of that chip
00:23:43.900 by their own conference paper
00:23:46.160 is our technology.
00:23:49.820 So what did you do then?
00:23:52.140 Well,
00:23:52.520 I went to attorneys
00:23:53.280 and I went to my patent attorney
00:23:55.420 who's been one of the
00:23:57.000 most successful patent attorneys
00:23:58.460 in the country
00:23:58.980 and I said,
00:24:00.300 Rob,
00:24:01.320 we just discovered this.
00:24:03.680 What do we do?
00:24:05.380 And he goes,
00:24:06.060 oh,
00:24:07.720 we're going to,
00:24:08.240 by the way,
00:24:08.740 he sits on our board
00:24:09.460 of directors.
00:24:10.100 He's told me many times,
00:24:11.660 he says,
00:24:12.280 you know,
00:24:12.440 in a patent attorney's career,
00:24:14.040 if you get three
00:24:14.980 real breakthroughs
00:24:16.120 in the whole career,
00:24:16.860 you're pretty,
00:24:17.700 he says,
00:24:18.000 this is one of my,
00:24:18.640 so he wanted to sit
00:24:19.340 on our board of directors.
00:24:20.480 So I go to him
00:24:21.240 as a board member
00:24:21.940 and a patent attorney
00:24:23.220 and he says,
00:24:23.840 we're going to have
00:24:24.560 to file a patent lawsuit.
00:24:26.980 And I said,
00:24:27.580 well,
00:24:27.700 can't we just go
00:24:28.240 and talk to him?
00:24:28.900 And he's like,
00:24:30.880 he's like,
00:24:31.720 no,
00:24:32.060 that would not be wise.
00:24:33.260 Right.
00:24:33.960 So we filed a lawsuit
00:24:35.260 in 2011
00:24:35.920 and all kinds
00:24:39.640 of fireworks
00:24:40.120 started then.
00:24:41.340 I mean,
00:24:41.600 it was crazy.
00:24:42.900 But to cut
00:24:43.800 to the quick,
00:24:44.420 within two years,
00:24:45.300 we were at trial.
00:24:46.260 It was pretty efficient.
00:24:47.060 And what happened
00:24:49.460 in discovery
00:24:50.120 was real eye-opener.
00:24:53.460 The law firm,
00:24:54.720 actually here in Dallas, Texas,
00:24:56.540 a firm called McCool Smith,
00:24:58.560 known for handling
00:25:00.080 a lot of patent litigations
00:25:01.160 for patent holds.
00:25:02.200 And about a year
00:25:03.400 into the case,
00:25:04.320 getting ready for trial,
00:25:05.080 they call me up
00:25:05.660 and they say,
00:25:06.140 Jeff,
00:25:07.040 you know,
00:25:07.360 when we have a client
00:25:08.260 come in,
00:25:09.260 tell us a story
00:25:10.020 and they leave,
00:25:11.200 we talk about it
00:25:11.980 as a group
00:25:12.400 and we say,
00:25:12.880 gee,
00:25:12.980 if half that story is true,
00:25:13.980 it's probably
00:25:14.300 a pretty amazing case.
00:25:15.300 We just got the emails
00:25:16.840 from discovery.
00:25:18.240 Your entire story
00:25:19.680 is in their emails.
00:25:21.320 We have never seen
00:25:22.600 anything like this.
00:25:23.860 What does that mean
00:25:24.380 your entire story?
00:25:25.160 That what you said
00:25:26.160 was happening?
00:25:27.300 Well,
00:25:28.620 Glenn,
00:25:28.980 I was worried,
00:25:30.080 you know,
00:25:30.640 when we broke off
00:25:32.020 the negotiation
00:25:32.660 when our separate ways,
00:25:33.780 I had this suspicion
00:25:34.820 and my suspicion
00:25:37.000 was founded.
00:25:38.020 So we take it
00:25:39.540 to their lab,
00:25:40.280 they test it,
00:25:41.100 they send around emails
00:25:42.280 to each other.
00:25:43.360 Oh my gosh,
00:25:44.160 we can make a better phone
00:25:45.840 with their chips today
00:25:47.220 than what we're
00:25:48.340 currently shipping.
00:25:49.140 These were prototypes.
00:25:51.960 This is the holy grail
00:25:53.360 of RF.
00:25:57.000 We must get our hands
00:25:58.340 on this technology.
00:25:59.380 This is an email
00:26:00.000 sent by the president
00:26:00.940 of the company
00:26:01.400 around to everybody.
00:26:03.540 And then
00:26:04.500 we start to see
00:26:05.620 the engineers
00:26:06.300 are a little upset,
00:26:09.660 right?
00:26:10.040 Because they've got
00:26:10.460 these engineers
00:26:11.100 being paid a lot of money
00:26:12.240 to run a big R&D lab
00:26:13.600 and here's this
00:26:14.140 little startup company.
00:26:16.100 And they're like,
00:26:17.000 well,
00:26:17.420 do we really want
00:26:18.020 to give them free money?
00:26:20.320 Jeez.
00:26:21.440 Quote,
00:26:22.060 free money.
00:26:23.020 So we walk in
00:26:23.840 with one of the biggest
00:26:24.560 advances in wireless
00:26:25.440 and their view
00:26:25.920 is it's free money.
00:26:27.680 And by the way,
00:26:28.500 we spent hundreds
00:26:29.240 of millions to develop.
00:26:30.240 This wasn't like
00:26:30.840 two guys in a garage.
00:26:32.420 So anyway,
00:26:33.620 ultimately,
00:26:34.820 I saw in their emails
00:26:36.020 where they're saying,
00:26:37.660 hey,
00:26:37.920 don't tell him
00:26:38.880 how good this is.
00:26:40.620 Keep him down.
00:26:41.260 We want him to be,
00:26:43.100 you know,
00:26:43.400 we don't want to help him.
00:26:45.500 And then ultimately,
00:26:46.540 they say,
00:26:47.320 oh,
00:26:47.740 don't tell him
00:26:48.420 how much money
00:26:48.920 we're going to make
00:26:49.420 on these chips.
00:26:50.100 And that's kind of
00:26:50.620 what broke off
00:26:51.160 the negotiations
00:26:51.740 is they said to me,
00:26:52.800 well,
00:26:52.920 where do you get
00:26:53.480 your royalty rate from?
00:26:55.080 And I said,
00:26:55.620 I calculated the money
00:26:58.140 you're going to make
00:26:58.620 on these chips.
00:26:59.820 And they say,
00:27:00.320 oh,
00:27:00.540 no,
00:27:00.780 you're assuming
00:27:01.260 our margins
00:27:01.780 are much higher
00:27:02.660 than they really are.
00:27:03.480 They're like half of that.
00:27:04.700 Well,
00:27:04.880 in the emails,
00:27:05.500 you know what they said?
00:27:06.760 Don't tell Jeff Parker.
00:27:08.180 He thinks our margins
00:27:09.200 are X percent.
00:27:10.220 It's really even more
00:27:11.280 than that.
00:27:12.420 So,
00:27:12.880 you know,
00:27:13.380 this whole suspicion
00:27:14.260 that I had
00:27:14.840 is right in their emails.
00:27:16.280 Right.
00:27:17.300 But the email
00:27:18.100 that's really
00:27:18.760 the smoking gun
00:27:19.600 is they took a few years
00:27:21.640 to try to develop
00:27:22.320 their own technology
00:27:23.140 after we broke it off.
00:27:25.380 And a few years later,
00:27:26.900 there's two engineers
00:27:27.700 on email talking
00:27:28.520 and they're like,
00:27:29.020 how are we going to do
00:27:29.800 the next generation chip?
00:27:31.040 We've got to keep our company,
00:27:32.920 you know,
00:27:33.100 moving in the right direction.
00:27:34.580 And they say,
00:27:35.320 you know what?
00:27:35.800 Let's just go back
00:27:36.560 and look at the
00:27:37.000 Parker Vision technology.
00:27:38.720 And you have that
00:27:40.020 in writing.
00:27:41.000 You have those.
00:27:42.240 These are the emails
00:27:43.420 that the jury saw
00:27:44.700 in our first case.
00:27:46.740 Okay.
00:27:47.320 So the jury hears this.
00:27:49.060 They come back
00:27:50.100 united on a verdict.
00:27:52.640 Unanimous.
00:27:53.400 Unanimous.
00:27:54.400 Qualcomm
00:27:54.800 has done wrong,
00:27:56.100 has got to pay you.
00:27:57.460 Yes.
00:27:57.780 The judge
00:27:58.540 comes out
00:27:59.220 and says that.
00:28:00.160 Yes.
00:28:01.100 But then
00:28:01.960 something happens
00:28:03.240 with the Obama administration
00:28:04.880 and Eric Holder
00:28:06.540 gets involved.
00:28:07.620 You're streaming
00:28:08.060 the best of Glenn Beck.
00:28:09.340 To hear more
00:28:10.080 of this interview
00:28:10.700 and others,
00:28:11.500 download the full show
00:28:12.400 podcasts
00:28:13.000 wherever you get podcasts.
00:28:15.540 Welcome to the
00:28:16.360 Glenn Beck program.
00:28:18.500 Congressman Chip Roy
00:28:19.380 is with us.
00:28:21.000 Hello, Chip.
00:28:21.540 How are you?
00:28:23.060 Glenn, I'm doing great.
00:28:24.020 How are you, brother?
00:28:24.660 I'm good.
00:28:25.840 I think people
00:28:26.740 are pretty optimistic
00:28:27.580 on what's going on,
00:28:28.820 but you're in the belly
00:28:29.560 of the beast.
00:28:30.620 How's it feel to you
00:28:31.840 inside the beast?
00:28:35.180 Well, I mean,
00:28:35.800 putting thought,
00:28:36.360 obviously,
00:28:36.640 our prayers
00:28:37.020 for the people
00:28:37.600 that, you know,
00:28:38.540 suffered last night
00:28:39.300 with that horrible
00:28:39.860 incident in D.C.,
00:28:41.060 which hits close to home
00:28:42.520 to those of us
00:28:43.340 who fly on that route
00:28:44.160 all the time.
00:28:44.880 Right.
00:28:45.640 But, you know,
00:28:46.500 what we're seeing
00:28:47.260 out of this administration
00:28:48.220 over the last,
00:28:48.960 now, almost two weeks,
00:28:49.940 right?
00:28:50.100 I mean, it seems like,
00:28:50.840 I mean, it's only been
00:28:51.400 about 10 days, right?
00:28:53.440 Has been extraordinary
00:28:54.480 in terms of reversing
00:28:56.000 the damage
00:28:57.620 from the Biden administration.
00:28:58.700 Obviously, we have miles
00:28:59.480 to go,
00:29:00.100 but just seeing removal,
00:29:01.520 seeing Tom Homan in action,
00:29:02.860 we've removed,
00:29:03.400 I think, maybe 8,000
00:29:04.180 or 9,000.
00:29:04.880 They're up to 1,500 a day,
00:29:06.200 kind of,
00:29:06.540 or 1,800 a day
00:29:07.380 was the last order.
00:29:09.000 Watching what they're doing,
00:29:09.960 I mean, you know,
00:29:10.420 and frankly,
00:29:10.960 there's been all this
00:29:11.580 controversy about the OMB memo.
00:29:13.780 That memo was awesome.
00:29:14.900 It was righteous.
00:29:16.060 The fact is,
00:29:16.980 it was the right thing to do,
00:29:18.260 and that's why a court
00:29:19.020 wanted to intervene
00:29:19.700 and try to put an injunction in.
00:29:21.700 But to say that we're going
00:29:22.680 to go and look
00:29:23.520 at all of this funding,
00:29:24.660 all of these grants,
00:29:25.500 all of these NGOs,
00:29:26.520 all of the money
00:29:27.100 flowing around the world,
00:29:28.060 and the liberals
00:29:29.140 wanted to make it about
00:29:30.300 things that it wasn't about,
00:29:31.740 Medicare and other things,
00:29:33.060 because they're afraid.
00:29:34.220 And now they've actually
00:29:35.040 identified all these
00:29:36.120 bad programs.
00:29:36.940 But to answer your question,
00:29:38.460 there's an energy
00:29:39.280 and an enthusiasm.
00:29:40.800 We fully support
00:29:41.760 what the president is doing.
00:29:43.180 God bless him
00:29:43.740 for being energetic,
00:29:45.360 for being optimistic,
00:29:46.600 but also doing
00:29:47.760 a lot of the things
00:29:48.980 so far that he said
00:29:49.860 he would do
00:29:50.400 with respect to the border,
00:29:52.000 with respect to
00:29:52.640 a lot of these
00:29:53.160 executive orders,
00:29:53.880 the DEI stuff,
00:29:54.860 school choice
00:29:56.760 and defense installations,
00:29:58.440 the nominees,
00:29:59.700 you know,
00:29:59.920 getting Pete Hegseth through.
00:30:01.620 Bobby Kennedy
00:30:02.300 had a great day yesterday.
00:30:03.660 He's become
00:30:04.040 a good friend of mine.
00:30:05.000 You think he's going to
00:30:05.820 be confirmed?
00:30:09.240 I don't know.
00:30:10.260 I'm the wrong person
00:30:11.040 to ask about
00:30:11.660 the current whip
00:30:12.380 in the Senate.
00:30:13.440 I would tell you
00:30:14.120 that obviously
00:30:14.620 there's a couple of people
00:30:15.540 that we're worried about.
00:30:16.980 It's going to take
00:30:17.720 a lot of work.
00:30:18.740 If you're out there
00:30:19.240 and listening,
00:30:19.740 you need to make sure
00:30:20.340 your senators know
00:30:21.220 that we need
00:30:21.880 the disruption
00:30:23.540 that Bobby Kennedy
00:30:24.820 represents.
00:30:26.080 And look,
00:30:26.520 Glenn,
00:30:26.820 you and I don't agree
00:30:27.640 with every single issue
00:30:28.500 with Bobby.
00:30:29.120 But you know,
00:30:29.660 what he said yesterday
00:30:30.480 was really instructive
00:30:31.520 on the issue of life.
00:30:32.680 He said that he served
00:30:34.140 at the pleasure
00:30:34.660 of the president.
00:30:35.720 He said that he would
00:30:36.860 honor the commitments
00:30:37.720 the president has made
00:30:38.700 and that he agreed
00:30:39.600 with him on a number
00:30:40.320 of fronts.
00:30:41.240 And that's what matters.
00:30:42.820 Bobby knows that
00:30:43.960 we need to change
00:30:44.940 the game in town,
00:30:45.940 that we cannot allow
00:30:47.100 big insurance
00:30:48.040 and big hospital
00:30:49.020 and all of these
00:30:50.320 big pharma
00:30:51.360 and all these big companies
00:30:52.500 and revolving doors
00:30:53.740 of lobbyists
00:30:54.340 to decide what's
00:30:55.100 happening at the NIH,
00:30:56.060 the CDC,
00:30:56.560 to cram us out
00:30:57.960 on the cost
00:30:58.700 of insurance
00:30:59.220 and health care.
00:31:00.180 That's why I released
00:31:01.100 a report last week,
00:31:02.160 The Case for Healthcare Freedom.
00:31:03.460 I encourage everybody
00:31:04.140 to go to
00:31:04.740 roy.house.gov
00:31:06.180 to look at it.
00:31:06.860 It's 48 pages
00:31:07.720 that explains how
00:31:08.880 we can reclaim
00:31:09.460 our health care.
00:31:10.160 But bottom line is,
00:31:11.560 Bobby's a good guy
00:31:12.640 and he's going to go
00:31:13.800 fight for, I think,
00:31:14.580 the people who need
00:31:15.280 to be fought for.
00:31:16.360 Tulsi needs to be confirmed.
00:31:17.720 She's in the hearing today.
00:31:19.180 I think she's in trouble.
00:31:20.280 I think there's,
00:31:21.840 you know,
00:31:22.060 Stu and I were just
00:31:22.680 talking about this.
00:31:23.440 I think that
00:31:24.700 Republicans right now
00:31:27.920 are just not willing
00:31:29.180 necessarily to take on
00:31:30.380 Donald Trump
00:31:30.940 at this point.
00:31:32.300 But there are those
00:31:33.960 who are the big war people,
00:31:36.480 the big intel people
00:31:37.860 that are on that committee.
00:31:40.280 And I just,
00:31:42.280 I just don't think
00:31:44.520 they want those flashlights
00:31:46.080 in that area.
00:31:47.960 Am I wrong?
00:31:48.360 Yeah, no, Glenn,
00:31:50.080 you're right.
00:31:50.700 And I might say here
00:31:51.740 a moment,
00:31:52.180 I've got a personal,
00:31:53.080 a point of personal privilege
00:31:54.520 that, you know,
00:31:55.980 there's been some arrows
00:31:56.980 directed at me
00:31:57.920 for some of my positions
00:31:59.220 about what I'm trying to do
00:32:00.320 to hold the line
00:32:01.000 on spending.
00:32:01.920 And it's all related.
00:32:03.320 You know,
00:32:03.520 I just talked about
00:32:04.400 big health care
00:32:05.200 and what Bobby Kennedy's
00:32:06.480 trying to do.
00:32:06.960 And hopefully we can
00:32:07.680 get him through.
00:32:09.000 Tulsi and,
00:32:10.400 you know,
00:32:11.380 the effort to unwind
00:32:13.080 the stranglehold,
00:32:14.140 the deep state intelligence
00:32:16.080 and the massive defense
00:32:17.740 industrial complex
00:32:18.740 has on the town.
00:32:19.920 Those guys try to move
00:32:21.280 the needle
00:32:21.740 in their favor
00:32:23.700 no matter what
00:32:24.380 with spending.
00:32:25.400 And that's part
00:32:26.000 of the big fight
00:32:26.640 we're having right now
00:32:27.560 when it comes to
00:32:28.140 reconciliation
00:32:28.680 and when it comes
00:32:29.420 to discretionary spending.
00:32:30.800 All of that's related.
00:32:32.460 And we got to remember
00:32:33.620 who the enemy is
00:32:34.600 and the enemy
00:32:35.040 is the swamp.
00:32:36.040 You know,
00:32:36.320 and somebody,
00:32:36.920 they always ask me
00:32:37.560 in interviews.
00:32:38.180 It's,
00:32:38.500 well,
00:32:38.640 there's this tension
00:32:39.340 between you and Trump
00:32:40.200 because the media
00:32:40.680 wants to create
00:32:41.420 this false narrative.
00:32:42.740 But the truth is
00:32:43.740 there's not really
00:32:44.240 any tension there.
00:32:44.980 There's tension
00:32:45.780 between me
00:32:46.500 and the swamp
00:32:47.200 and the swamp
00:32:48.340 tries to do
00:32:49.340 their games,
00:32:50.560 to play their games,
00:32:51.280 to get in a position
00:32:52.080 of power.
00:32:52.660 So right now,
00:32:53.720 President Trump
00:32:54.280 is the power.
00:32:55.380 So the swamp
00:32:55.940 in town
00:32:56.500 wants to figure out
00:32:57.660 whatever they got to do
00:32:58.840 to keep their money
00:33:00.120 flowing
00:33:00.620 to their big contractors
00:33:02.240 and to keep
00:33:03.100 the big industrial,
00:33:04.500 you know,
00:33:04.660 defense industrial complex
00:33:05.740 in the entire town.
00:33:06.960 The reason the richest
00:33:08.080 counties in the world
00:33:08.900 are all around
00:33:09.400 Washington, D.C.
00:33:10.400 is because of that.
00:33:11.700 And they know
00:33:12.380 that this four years
00:33:13.300 they've just got to survive.
00:33:14.400 And they don't care
00:33:15.360 if it's Democrat
00:33:15.880 or Republican, Glenn.
00:33:17.080 They've just got to survive.
00:33:18.540 And then they get to
00:33:19.480 keep doing what they do.
00:33:21.060 We've got to have
00:33:22.140 transformative change
00:33:23.360 on spending,
00:33:24.420 on health care,
00:33:25.280 on border,
00:33:26.140 on freedom,
00:33:27.180 on DEI.
00:33:28.020 The president's doing it.
00:33:29.580 The question is
00:33:30.220 whether Congress
00:33:30.860 will step up
00:33:31.500 to do it too.
00:33:32.860 I will tell you,
00:33:34.000 with Kash Patel
00:33:34.980 and Tulsi Gabbard
00:33:37.520 and all of,
00:33:38.840 really,
00:33:39.480 almost everybody
00:33:40.420 that he has nominated
00:33:41.440 to these big positions,
00:33:43.120 you're just not
00:33:44.240 going to be able
00:33:45.180 to keep up
00:33:46.160 with the amount
00:33:47.160 of change
00:33:48.060 that is coming.
00:33:49.840 Because I think
00:33:50.320 these guys are all
00:33:51.420 dead serious
00:33:52.380 and know the problems
00:33:54.760 and they're dead serious
00:33:56.200 about fixing them.
00:33:58.080 I think that's right.
00:33:59.280 I mean,
00:33:59.440 I certainly saw that
00:34:00.440 in Pete Hegseth.
00:34:01.500 I saw it in his first day
00:34:02.720 on the job
00:34:03.160 after confirmation.
00:34:04.300 I see that in Kash Patel.
00:34:05.840 What he wants to do
00:34:06.760 to root out
00:34:07.260 all the corruption
00:34:07.900 and the tyrannical
00:34:09.620 power activities
00:34:10.320 of the FBI
00:34:10.940 and the Department
00:34:11.560 of Justice,
00:34:12.340 which desperately
00:34:13.000 needs to be done.
00:34:13.820 Pam Bondi.
00:34:15.180 Again,
00:34:15.760 Tulsi with intelligence.
00:34:16.760 I agree with you
00:34:17.380 that the knives,
00:34:18.480 the long knives
00:34:19.520 are out for Tulsi
00:34:20.820 and we've got to try
00:34:21.460 to get her through.
00:34:23.200 But again,
00:34:24.200 understand the importance
00:34:25.340 of what we're talking
00:34:26.320 about, Glenn.
00:34:27.400 Would you and I
00:34:28.200 four years ago
00:34:28.980 have believed
00:34:29.580 that we would be
00:34:30.280 talking about
00:34:30.860 how much we need
00:34:31.540 to defend
00:34:32.040 Bobby Kennedy
00:34:32.680 and Tulsi Gabbard?
00:34:33.740 No, no.
00:34:34.900 But these are two people
00:34:36.400 that I've actually
00:34:37.000 become friends with.
00:34:38.120 Me too.
00:34:39.060 Tulsi has a home
00:34:39.920 near Austin.
00:34:40.540 I talk to her
00:34:41.260 regularly.
00:34:42.360 I mean,
00:34:42.480 she's been a little
00:34:43.100 off the grid
00:34:43.520 the last few weeks,
00:34:44.340 but we're genuinely
00:34:45.440 friends.
00:34:45.920 I've come to know
00:34:46.420 Bobby and work
00:34:47.800 with him and his team
00:34:48.640 and Cali Means.
00:34:49.800 These are people
00:34:50.520 who get what time
00:34:51.660 it is in America
00:34:52.480 and that we need
00:34:53.240 a fundamental change.
00:34:54.560 And I'm going to go
00:34:55.200 to the mat for them.
00:34:56.020 I'm going to go
00:34:56.320 to the mat for the president,
00:34:57.120 but I am also going
00:34:58.500 to go to the mat
00:34:59.060 to cut spending
00:34:59.720 and that's where
00:35:00.400 I've got some
00:35:01.800 fighting to do
00:35:03.040 on my own side
00:35:03.640 over on the House.
00:35:04.320 Talk to me
00:35:06.100 about the bill
00:35:06.980 that you just
00:35:07.420 introduced
00:35:07.840 to protect
00:35:08.840 American land
00:35:09.600 from the
00:35:10.360 Communist
00:35:10.800 Chinese Party.
00:35:14.260 Sure,
00:35:14.940 of course,
00:35:15.300 Glenn,
00:35:15.440 I appreciate it.
00:35:16.200 About four years ago,
00:35:17.720 seeing where
00:35:18.300 that was all headed,
00:35:19.260 I jumped out
00:35:19.980 and introduced
00:35:20.380 legislation to
00:35:21.460 restrict and ban
00:35:22.980 the Chinese Communist Party
00:35:24.540 or anybody affiliated
00:35:25.380 with the Chinese
00:35:25.880 Communist Party
00:35:26.540 or Chinese foreign
00:35:27.260 nationals
00:35:27.700 from owning land
00:35:28.540 in America.
00:35:29.000 I don't think
00:35:29.560 we should just
00:35:30.080 focus on farmland.
00:35:31.620 Yes,
00:35:31.900 it's horrific
00:35:32.440 that we let them
00:35:33.040 buy farmland.
00:35:34.260 Yes,
00:35:34.480 I think it's horrific
00:35:35.100 that we let them
00:35:35.660 buy land
00:35:36.180 near military bases,
00:35:37.400 but we shouldn't
00:35:38.180 just limit it to that.
00:35:39.440 My legislation
00:35:40.120 would come through
00:35:40.760 and say,
00:35:41.080 guys,
00:35:41.440 why are we letting
00:35:42.180 the CHICOMs
00:35:42.940 own any American land?
00:35:44.240 And for that matter,
00:35:45.200 Glenn,
00:35:45.620 I'm asking the question now,
00:35:47.200 why do we let
00:35:47.820 any foreign nationals
00:35:48.880 own American land?
00:35:49.760 It's American soil.
00:35:51.020 Like,
00:35:51.280 even our friends
00:35:51.940 and our allies
00:35:52.620 have concerns
00:35:53.460 about buying up our dirt
00:35:54.620 because they may not
00:35:56.000 be our allies one day.
00:35:57.340 So,
00:35:57.620 I think we need
00:35:58.200 to really look at that.
00:35:59.060 I reintroduced the bill
00:36:00.220 again.
00:36:00.660 This is the bill
00:36:01.300 that I've had now
00:36:01.880 for a couple of Congresses,
00:36:03.240 the Securing America's Land
00:36:04.560 from Foreign Interference Act
00:36:06.740 and H.R. 809.
00:36:08.840 It's a good piece of legislation.
00:36:11.260 I'm going to try to move it
00:36:12.560 or similar measures.
00:36:13.760 You know,
00:36:13.920 on the farm bill,
00:36:14.620 we can restrict farm ownership,
00:36:16.380 but I think we ought to go big
00:36:17.820 and we ought to be bold
00:36:19.500 about what we're trying to do
00:36:20.380 to make sure that,
00:36:21.220 look,
00:36:21.620 you never let Nazi Germany
00:36:22.780 own American land in 1939.
00:36:25.160 We would have gotten rid of it.
00:36:26.300 There's no way
00:36:27.120 the Soviet Union
00:36:28.240 would have owned
00:36:29.700 an outhouse
00:36:30.820 in America
00:36:31.740 and had that not
00:36:33.240 taken away from them.
00:36:34.940 You know,
00:36:35.660 I don't know if you know
00:36:36.580 what's going on in Missouri,
00:36:37.680 but the Attorney General
00:36:39.540 there has sued
00:36:40.680 China
00:36:41.600 for its
00:36:42.980 acts
00:36:44.920 of mass murder
00:36:47.100 with COVID.
00:36:49.140 and the ruling's
00:36:51.820 coming out
00:36:52.180 in a couple of weeks
00:36:52.860 and if they win,
00:36:54.920 they're going to be able
00:36:56.220 to seize
00:36:57.020 a lot of Chinese land
00:36:58.780 and, I mean,
00:37:00.180 that's another way
00:37:01.160 to get it,
00:37:02.140 but they'll have the right
00:37:03.900 just to seize it.
00:37:05.860 Well,
00:37:06.320 this is definitely
00:37:06.860 the kind of stuff
00:37:07.480 we must do
00:37:08.120 and, importantly,
00:37:09.180 this is a national security
00:37:10.240 interest from food supply
00:37:11.560 to, and beyond
00:37:12.760 just owning land,
00:37:13.700 Glenn,
00:37:13.900 what about our
00:37:14.340 meatpacking facility?
00:37:15.220 I know.
00:37:15.740 What about other,
00:37:16.580 yeah,
00:37:16.780 anything to do
00:37:18.420 with food
00:37:18.980 should not
00:37:19.980 be overseas.
00:37:21.280 I don't care
00:37:21.780 what country.
00:37:23.160 I mean,
00:37:23.460 our meatpacking plants,
00:37:24.980 two out of the three,
00:37:26.140 maybe all three now,
00:37:27.140 are owned
00:37:27.840 by foreign countries.
00:37:29.720 And,
00:37:30.180 and to be clear,
00:37:31.020 other things like medicine,
00:37:32.340 remember what was happening
00:37:33.160 in the wake of COVID
00:37:34.040 and our concern
00:37:35.540 about the supply chains
00:37:36.600 of China
00:37:37.040 and that,
00:37:37.460 oh,
00:37:37.580 we can't get this
00:37:38.380 and that and the other
00:37:38.980 and obviously there were
00:37:39.920 a lot of problems
00:37:40.540 with COVID
00:37:40.960 and our reaction to it,
00:37:42.300 but it really highlighted,
00:37:43.740 wait a minute,
00:37:44.320 we need to have
00:37:44.860 that industrial capacity here.
00:37:46.200 By the way,
00:37:47.260 this is why the president
00:37:48.000 is correct
00:37:48.820 about what he's trying
00:37:50.000 to do to force change
00:37:51.120 to get more American-based
00:37:52.260 manufacturing production here.
00:37:54.220 I think he's right
00:37:54.880 to be talking about tariffs.
00:37:56.400 Those raise questions
00:37:57.620 about what that does
00:37:58.640 to the economy
00:37:59.180 and,
00:37:59.740 you know,
00:38:00.000 we had to give
00:38:00.660 a $40 billion check,
00:38:01.900 I think,
00:38:02.160 to farmers five years ago
00:38:03.700 during the,
00:38:04.180 you know,
00:38:04.480 early rounds of tariffs.
00:38:05.580 So we've got to think
00:38:06.260 about how you do it,
00:38:07.240 but we've got to restructure.
00:38:08.540 We're in the middle
00:38:08.980 of a restructuring
00:38:09.900 both politically,
00:38:11.220 but the American people
00:38:12.300 are awake post-COVID.
00:38:13.480 They're awake
00:38:13.820 because of President Trump
00:38:14.820 and we're now all
00:38:15.960 moving the needle forward.
00:38:17.100 Again,
00:38:17.440 I'll reiterate,
00:38:18.380 we need the Republican Congress
00:38:20.180 to have even a quarter
00:38:22.000 of the backbone
00:38:22.880 that the president
00:38:23.920 is demonstrating
00:38:24.760 and to lead.
00:38:26.220 And we've got to do
00:38:27.220 what we said we would do.
00:38:28.340 And that can't just be
00:38:29.940 do another tax bill
00:38:31.560 and don't cut spending.
00:38:33.040 Otherwise,
00:38:33.660 we will never get
00:38:34.200 deficits under control
00:38:35.240 and Americans will be taxed
00:38:37.060 through inflation
00:38:38.160 and taxed
00:38:39.160 because we're spending money
00:38:40.200 we don't have
00:38:40.880 and the president
00:38:41.700 will be fighting
00:38:42.320 his own Congress
00:38:43.100 who's funding
00:38:43.920 the very bureaucrats
00:38:44.800 he's trying to stop.
00:38:45.900 So we've got to back him up
00:38:47.600 and that's what I'm trying
00:38:48.700 to do in Congress.
00:38:49.620 I will tell you that,
00:38:50.900 you know,
00:38:51.720 you look at everything
00:38:54.760 that is happening right now.
00:38:57.100 This is the biggest change.
00:38:59.720 You know,
00:39:00.280 Barack Obama said
00:39:01.520 right before he was elected,
00:39:02.680 we're five days away
00:39:03.560 from the fundamental
00:39:04.160 transformation of America.
00:39:06.400 That's where we are again.
00:39:07.880 We are in it right now.
00:39:09.460 He is fundamentally changing.
00:39:11.420 But if we don't,
00:39:12.540 if he does this all
00:39:13.380 by executive order,
00:39:15.300 then it's not permanent.
00:39:16.400 Then it's not permanent.
00:39:17.360 And we,
00:39:17.800 the country,
00:39:18.320 no country can afford
00:39:20.160 the massive swings
00:39:21.940 back and forth
00:39:22.920 every four or eight years.
00:39:24.720 It has to go,
00:39:26.220 it has to go through Congress.
00:39:28.680 Yeah,
00:39:29.200 that is so important, Glenn.
00:39:30.360 We have to back him up
00:39:32.040 and come in
00:39:33.200 with a permanent change
00:39:34.460 because this is,
00:39:36.220 this is a transformative moment,
00:39:37.840 but only if we cement them
00:39:39.260 in place.
00:39:40.060 If we continue
00:39:41.500 to have deficit spending,
00:39:42.840 which is where Republicans
00:39:43.780 are currently headed,
00:39:45.120 then we've got that tax
00:39:46.420 on the American people
00:39:47.220 and you don't change it.
00:39:48.220 If we don't get
00:39:49.080 transformative healthcare reform,
00:39:51.060 we're not,
00:39:51.380 we're past the days
00:39:52.260 of talking about
00:39:52.840 repealing Obamacare.
00:39:53.960 We need to have
00:39:54.840 transformative vision
00:39:56.500 for healthcare,
00:39:57.700 doctors and patients,
00:39:59.000 not insurance companies
00:40:00.100 and government
00:40:00.600 and corporate bureaucrats.
00:40:01.680 We have a vision for that.
00:40:03.240 Let's paint that picture
00:40:04.300 and let's deliver.
00:40:05.600 But you've got to have
00:40:06.520 that transformative change
00:40:07.760 or we're not going
00:40:08.560 to get our country back
00:40:09.440 because we can't expect
00:40:10.860 that the Democrats
00:40:11.840 move the goalposts
00:40:12.780 all the way
00:40:13.080 to the other side
00:40:13.680 of the field
00:40:14.120 and the president
00:40:15.220 through executive orders
00:40:16.140 move it 20 yards back
00:40:17.520 and Congress doesn't
00:40:18.600 do anything to support it.
00:40:19.780 Well, then when the Democrats
00:40:20.640 get the ball again,
00:40:21.460 they're ready to score.
00:40:22.700 We've got to change
00:40:23.920 the field, right?
00:40:25.000 Get that field position back
00:40:26.500 and move in the other direction
00:40:27.920 for freedom,
00:40:28.780 limited government,
00:40:29.780 constitutional,
00:40:30.900 making sure we're
00:40:31.720 preserving and protecting rights
00:40:32.860 and restoring that American dream
00:40:35.080 that the government
00:40:36.020 isn't the solution
00:40:36.760 the American people are.
00:40:38.060 That's the central theme
00:40:39.200 to all of this,
00:40:39.800 in my view.
00:40:40.240 I have to tell you,
00:40:40.940 I saw Johnson say,
00:40:42.940 what, yesterday,
00:40:43.760 the day before,
00:40:44.700 that he thinks,
00:40:45.400 you know,
00:40:45.780 Congress,
00:40:46.400 Republicans are going to
00:40:47.600 not only hold,
00:40:48.260 but they'll grow in two years.
00:40:50.080 And I thought,
00:40:50.640 not if you're not doing stuff,
00:40:52.300 dude.
00:40:53.020 Not if you're just
00:40:53.920 standing around
00:40:54.580 letting him carry all the weight.
00:40:56.080 You've got to be passing
00:40:57.960 real change bills.
00:41:00.980 Yep.
00:41:01.500 And look,
00:41:01.820 let's say the first bill
00:41:02.780 that was signed yesterday,
00:41:03.780 the Lake and Riley Act
00:41:04.620 was a good bill.
00:41:05.580 But let me give you,
00:41:06.420 let me give you one example
00:41:07.540 of what matters.
00:41:08.520 A year ago,
00:41:09.520 the first bill
00:41:10.320 they were talking about
00:41:11.060 doing that,
00:41:11.640 it didn't do a lot,
00:41:12.980 right?
00:41:13.200 It was just focused
00:41:14.020 on theft
00:41:14.820 and ICE detainers.
00:41:16.560 We said,
00:41:17.300 the Freedom Caucus
00:41:18.000 and conservatives said,
00:41:18.760 wait a minute,
00:41:19.280 we fought to change
00:41:20.360 the institution.
00:41:21.360 We want to have an amendment.
00:41:22.460 We want to change this
00:41:23.280 and make it to where
00:41:23.860 it includes the SUE Act,
00:41:25.960 which allows states
00:41:26.780 to sue the federal government
00:41:27.880 if the federal government
00:41:28.540 doesn't secure the border.
00:41:29.940 They're like,
00:41:30.320 man,
00:41:30.580 so that's included now.
00:41:32.880 So what the president signed,
00:41:34.260 because we fought for it,
00:41:35.240 is a much better bill.
00:41:36.660 Mike Collins led,
00:41:37.640 and God bless him,
00:41:38.480 we did that for Lake and Riley
00:41:39.600 and their family,
00:41:40.660 and we now have a good bill.
00:41:41.920 That's how it works,
00:41:42.980 but we have to deliver,
00:41:44.500 and we've got to deliver
00:41:45.440 on spending restraint,
00:41:46.820 yes,
00:41:47.220 tax cuts,
00:41:48.100 absolutely,
00:41:49.060 but we can't not do math,
00:41:51.160 Glenn,
00:41:51.720 and our guys want to walk in there
00:41:53.360 and say,
00:41:53.720 yeah,
00:41:53.980 cut,
00:41:54.240 cut,
00:41:54.460 cut on taxes,
00:41:55.420 I'm all for it.
00:41:56.460 I'd like to cut them all,
00:41:57.600 zero it out,
00:41:58.560 but then you've got to go over
00:41:59.480 to the other side of the ledger
00:42:00.560 and do your part,
00:42:01.700 and if you're unwilling to do that,
00:42:03.500 then you've got to answer
00:42:04.520 to why you're for
00:42:05.900 increasing the deficits.
00:42:07.320 This is the struggle
00:42:08.200 Republicans are having right now,
00:42:09.680 because if you fund these programs,
00:42:11.820 then you're continuing
00:42:12.680 to fund the demise of America.
00:42:14.280 I think you need to have
00:42:17.320 Javier Millet come up
00:42:19.040 and talk to you guys,
00:42:20.060 because,
00:42:20.880 I mean,
00:42:21.260 he's done both.
00:42:22.460 He's cut the size of government,
00:42:23.860 the spending,
00:42:25.040 and they are on a rocket ship
00:42:27.900 right now,
00:42:28.760 just a rocket ship.
00:42:30.320 Absolutely.
00:42:31.060 Look,
00:42:31.260 I think President Trump
00:42:32.300 is taking the steps necessary
00:42:34.160 to get us put on that rocket ship,
00:42:35.900 but we've got to get Congress
00:42:37.160 to fully release the shackles
00:42:38.720 and to lay out the groundwork
00:42:40.120 for us to do it.
00:42:41.240 Again,
00:42:41.900 we've got,
00:42:42.620 you know,
00:42:43.020 right now we're bleeding
00:42:44.220 $2 trillion a year
00:42:45.720 in deficit,
00:42:46.400 Glenn,
00:42:46.880 $2 trillion.
00:42:48.200 And right now,
00:42:49.520 interest payments are going up
00:42:50.760 because we're borrowing more
00:42:52.180 and interest rates are going up.
00:42:53.680 So it's getting worse.
00:42:54.580 If we do nothing,
00:42:55.560 it's getting worse.
00:42:56.620 If we then extend the tax cuts
00:42:59.280 from 2017,
00:43:00.300 which I want to do,
00:43:01.760 we've got to do the math
00:43:02.920 because you and I both know
00:43:04.540 that $800 billion
00:43:05.580 in child tax credits,
00:43:07.120 because that's how much it is,
00:43:08.400 those don't pay for themselves.
00:43:10.060 So you've got to come over here
00:43:11.640 and say,
00:43:11.980 wait a minute,
00:43:12.400 we've got to reduce spending over here.
00:43:14.500 Medicaid work requirements.
00:43:16.060 Who should oppose that?
00:43:17.500 Right?
00:43:17.780 You work if you want to be on Medicaid.
00:43:19.460 Got to have work requirements.
00:43:21.080 So we've got things
00:43:22.040 that would save $120 billion.
00:43:23.680 Like ending the EV mandates,
00:43:25.400 like getting rid of student loans,
00:43:27.140 but also other Medicaid reforms.
00:43:29.400 I've got to cut you.
00:43:30.560 I'm sorry.
00:43:31.000 I've got to cut you off.
00:43:31.600 I've got a network break
00:43:32.360 and I'm running late.
00:43:33.560 Thank you for everything you're doing.
00:43:34.940 Thanks for spending some time.
00:43:35.780 We'll have you on again
00:43:36.440 to continue our conversation.
