00:00:00.140 Oh, it's good to be back in the studio with you.
00:00:02.640 I know.
00:00:03.220 I can't believe you actually came back.
00:00:04.480 I thought you were gone this time.
00:00:06.120 Yeah, it was close.
00:00:07.080 It was close.
00:00:07.660 It was close.
00:00:08.260 It was close.
00:00:09.280 But I just came back to fire you later this week. 0.77
00:00:11.660 Oh, okay.
00:00:11.940 But I won't tell you that until Friday.
00:00:13.440 Hey, bring a box.
00:00:14.240 Stop by my office, will you?
00:00:15.300 On Friday?
00:00:16.980 Welcome to the podcast.
00:00:18.780 We hit some...
00:00:19.960 I mean, there's some weird things going on in the world.
00:00:22.700 We have an interview with a guy from January 6th.
00:00:25.040 He was a lieutenant at the Capitol Police.
00:00:26.680 He already talked to Tucker, but he said he didn't say everything.
00:00:30.540 And what he lays out on January 6th must be dealt with and must be looked into.
00:00:37.420 Plus, we have the DOJ hiring the guy who is already the attorney looking into Hunter Biden,
00:00:46.840 tried to make a sweetheart deal, and now he's the special counsel.
00:00:51.140 Well, we talk about that and give you some scenarios on what is possible and what is coming.
00:00:58.120 You don't want to miss today's podcast brought to you by Preborn.
00:01:01.660 One of these days, maybe in our lifetimes, it's possible you'll see the abolition of abortion.
00:01:08.540 Stranger things have happened.
00:01:10.120 In fact, they've happened recently.
00:01:12.120 The history books of our future will write about this generation 0.95
00:01:15.480 and what we decide to do and what happens next.
00:01:19.920 So, what are we going to do?
00:01:21.800 Well, the Ministry of Preborn stands every day for the helpless among us,
00:01:25.880 providing free ultrasounds and postnatal help for up to two years.
00:01:30.420 And they're helping move the needle tremendously.
00:01:33.160 When an expecting mom hears her baby's heartbeat for the first time,
00:01:36.180 chances that she'll choose life for that baby double.
00:01:38.900 Will you help save a person?
00:01:42.460 Help save a mom and a child for $28.
00:01:46.200 $28 to save a life.
00:01:48.180 Just dial pound 250, say the keyword baby.
00:01:50.900 That's pound 250, keyword baby, at preborn.com slash Glenn.
00:02:03.600 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:08.900 Welcome to The Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:10.880 We're glad you're here.
00:02:12.380 Senator Ron Johnson is with us now.
00:02:14.960 There's a couple things I want to talk to him about.
00:02:16.580 First, I guess I want to start, Senator,
00:02:19.820 with the special counsel that has been named last Friday.
00:02:26.800 This guy works as the U.S. attorney,
00:02:29.720 which is then an official member of the Justice Department,
00:02:34.120 and that makes him a government employee,
00:02:36.140 which, according to the code, you have to hire somebody
00:02:40.240 who is outside of the government.
00:02:42.520 What's happening?
00:02:44.220 Well, even more important than that, Glenn,
00:02:46.020 is you need to have somebody who's independent.
00:02:48.120 Yes.
00:02:48.620 And I can't think of another human being on Earth
00:02:51.880 who's less independent than David Weiss right now.
00:02:55.460 I mean, he's the guy that was in charge of engineering that sleazy,
00:02:59.240 and that's what it was.
00:03:00.200 It was a sleazy plea agreement,
00:03:01.700 trying to pull the wool over the judge's eyes there.
00:03:04.560 He didn't get away with it.
00:03:06.400 We had a whistleblower say that David Weiss's office
00:03:08.860 did not have the resource to do a proper investigation.
00:03:11.260 He's the guy that allowed the statute of limitations to expire
00:03:14.120 on some more serious tax charges.
00:03:16.140 This is a horrible miscarriage of justice here,
00:03:19.600 but that's what we can expect from a lawless administration
00:03:22.000 like the Biden administration.
00:03:23.860 Right.
00:03:24.080 So can't you guys hold the Justice Department
00:03:27.800 to the line here?
00:03:31.120 This is not just an opinion that he's bad.
00:03:33.300 But he is not qualified according to the statute.
00:03:38.000 It must be an outside-of-government employee.
00:03:42.420 You've got to call somebody from the outside.
00:03:45.080 Unfortunately, in the Senate,
00:03:46.320 we have Democrat chairmen who have no interest
00:03:48.900 in looking at this at all.
00:03:50.600 In the House, I think they can.
00:03:52.080 I mean, you can start an impeachment inquiry,
00:03:53.980 which will hopefully open up and give you access
00:03:56.680 to more information to all these people in front of Congress.
00:04:00.680 And first of all, find out who is lying between Merrick Garland
00:04:03.360 and David Weiss.
00:04:04.780 That's one of the things.
00:04:05.980 You know, these agencies have just insulated themselves
00:04:09.800 from congressional oversight, from public scrutiny.
00:04:12.400 I would argue for management of Republican president,
00:04:14.920 for example, a lot of the obstruction of this investigation
00:04:19.260 occurred under the Trump Department of Justice,
00:04:22.800 which just shows you how infiltrated leftist partisans are
00:04:26.320 in the Justice Department.
00:04:27.360 You know, as a Republican president, how do you even gain control over this?
00:04:31.320 So, President Trump didn't.
00:04:32.660 Yeah, you don't.
00:04:34.020 Unless you know what it is and you go in and fire everybody.
00:04:37.440 And I think you can do that, but it's a constitutional question, I think.
00:04:42.980 Senator, I want to also talk to you about something
00:04:46.180 that we've been on for a couple of years.
00:04:48.920 And I saw you bring it up here recently,
00:04:53.200 or at least it was reported on you bringing it up.
00:04:56.280 And I wanted to get your thoughts on this.
00:04:58.640 And that is, you said last week,
00:05:01.040 this COVID was all pre-planned by an elite group of people, Event 201.
00:05:07.140 This is very concerning in terms of what continues to be planned
00:05:10.700 for our loss of freedom.
00:05:11.920 We're up against a very powerful group of people.
00:05:14.580 Well, what Marie and I were talking about was the censorship
00:05:19.460 and the sabotage of early treatment.
00:05:22.020 The doctors I've been working with for a few years now believe
00:05:24.260 that hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives
00:05:26.300 because they didn't have access to these generic drugs that worked.
00:05:30.320 Yes.
00:05:30.600 And I believe the response to COVID was all pre-planned.
00:05:34.320 One of the examples was Event 201.
00:05:35.920 Now, listen, in the age of CRISPR and gene editing, gene splicing,
00:05:41.660 it makes sense for people to do simulations.
00:05:44.960 As chairman of Homeland Security,
00:05:46.360 I held hearings on the Blue Ribbon biodefense panel,
00:05:50.200 you know, in terms of bio threat.
00:05:51.660 I mean, it makes sense to do that.
00:05:53.120 Right.
00:05:53.380 But at the same time, in the age of CRISPR and gene editing,
00:05:57.040 it makes sense to leave open the possibility
00:05:59.000 that this might have been a mad-made virus.
00:06:01.260 And, of course, Anthony Fauci covered that up famously
00:06:05.260 in his end of January, early February 2020 email exchanges
00:06:09.820 and telephone conversations where they had to turn that
00:06:13.580 into a conspiracy theory, you know, a man-made origin of this.
00:06:19.620 So, no, there is so much corruption here.
00:06:21.980 There's so many odd things that point, you know, again,
00:06:24.420 I don't ignore the possibility of this being certainly man-made
00:06:30.520 and possibly even released.
00:06:32.060 We just don't know.
00:06:32.800 I don't think we'll ever get the evidence because Fauci did such a good job
00:06:35.700 of covering this up and allowing people time to destroy the evidence.
00:06:40.000 But to me, this has been pretty obvious.
00:06:41.400 This was a man-made virus.
00:06:43.940 It is so unique.
00:06:45.720 And certainly the censorship,
00:06:48.880 their desire to have a universal vaccine program,
00:06:53.040 and Rick Bright and Fauci talked about that in October 2019,
00:06:57.200 seven days before the event, 2001.
00:07:00.920 They were bemoving the fact that we don't have a universal vaccine program.
00:07:03.780 And Rick Bright even talked about, you know,
00:07:05.640 mRNA vaccines during that process.
00:07:08.380 So, to me, it never made sense that they sabotaged early treatment.
00:07:12.780 You know, you had false, completely fraudulent studies published in The Lancet,
00:07:18.180 for example, and then retracted after two weeks,
00:07:19.920 but by then had done its damage on hydroxychloroquine.
00:07:22.320 You know, I held hearings with people like Dr. Corey.
00:07:25.680 Those people were savaged, even though they have evidence that stuff works.
00:07:29.140 Anecdotally, I've referred so many people to doctors
00:07:31.680 who had the courage and compassion to treat, and it worked.
00:07:34.240 And even Maria admitted that.
00:07:36.420 She got COVID, took ivermectin.
00:07:39.800 Within a day, she was well.
00:07:41.380 I heard similar remarkable recoveries that way.
00:07:44.600 So, again, the response was certainly pre-planned.
00:07:48.660 You know, COVID is a pandemic.
00:07:49.960 I think they always were looking for something they could turn into
00:07:53.940 a major worldwide event where they could start controlling our lives.
00:07:57.820 I mean, I think that's just obvious in terms of how they handled this.
00:08:00.520 It's clear.
00:08:01.260 We didn't follow the general prescriptions of what you do with a respiratory virus.
00:08:07.200 You know, we just didn't follow any of those.
00:08:08.400 You don't shut down the economy.
00:08:10.560 That was the first signal, together with the sabotaging of early treatment.
00:08:15.260 So, again, there's just so many things.
00:08:17.080 Anthony Fauci predicting in early 2017 that Trump was going to be, no doubt,
00:08:22.540 face surprise of infection, the disease outbreak.
00:08:26.380 Again, they were just waiting, just waiting.
00:08:29.420 And, of course, the last person in the world, if you knew anything about Anthony Fauci,
00:08:33.780 he'd be the last person in the world you'd put in charge of a response to the pandemic.
00:08:37.860 Way too compromised.
00:08:39.240 Way too corrupt.
00:08:39.920 So, let me go here first.
00:08:42.660 Let me separate the two.
00:08:44.140 You're not saying that COVID as a disease was planned.
00:08:50.360 It might have been made by man.
00:08:54.060 I think it probably escaped the lab in Wuhan.
00:08:57.920 And I think, well, I know that they knew once it broke out,
00:09:03.340 they knew what it was and they knew that they were working on it.
00:09:06.440 It was a cover-up.
00:09:07.220 You're saying the response was planned.
00:09:11.880 It was just waiting for the right thing to happen.
00:09:15.420 Yeah, precisely.
00:09:16.340 And, yeah, again, I think it's pretty obvious that this is a man-made chimeric virus.
00:09:21.380 I mean, it's been obvious for a very long period of time.
00:09:24.660 But, again, those who were involved in it, that's the last thing they could ever admit to.
00:09:29.860 I mean, Anthony Fauci funded this.
00:09:31.500 People like Ralph Baric were working on this for years.
00:09:34.320 They were patenting things.
00:09:35.640 The fact they had the basic patents on the mRNA vaccine immediately.
00:09:41.260 And even though Fauci was saying in that Milken Institute that it would take 10 years to fully test this stuff,
00:09:46.040 all of a sudden this thing supposedly tested well enough within 12 months for sure.
00:09:52.460 This is absurd.
00:09:54.240 And then the denial of the vaccine injuries, the ignoring of their safety surveillance system, VAERS.
00:10:01.280 You know, when I first started talking about that, again, I was totally vilified in the media for, you know, spreading misinformation.
00:10:07.760 You know, right now, Glenn, we are up over 35,000 deaths globally.
00:10:11.580 And that's just what's been reported.
00:10:13.560 And we know the doctors are discouraged, threatened if they report these things on VAERS.
00:10:18.980 Over a million and a half adverse events.
00:10:20.960 And, by the way, of those 35,000 deaths, 25% of those are occurring, or 24% are occurring within days zero, one, or two of vaccination.
00:10:31.200 You know, VAERS may not prove causation, but that correlation sure is concerning.
00:10:35.540 Why isn't it concerning our health officials?
00:10:38.000 So, again, there's so many things that don't make sense coming from the narrative of the mainstream media of what I call the COVID cartel, the administration, the federal health agencies, big pharma, you know, corrupt big pharma who've corrupted the agencies as well as our media.
00:10:52.500 So, Senator, I'm concerned about one thing, and you'll understand the tie-in to this here in a second.
00:10:58.380 But I'm very concerned that there are people on the left and the right.
00:11:02.980 We are in the middle of bottom-up, top-down, inside-out.
00:11:08.960 It is where the streets are just absolutely unruly.
00:11:14.440 Nobody feels safe.
00:11:15.760 Nobody feels there's justice.
00:11:17.460 The economy is starting to go to crap.
00:11:19.700 And people rise up and say, we need somebody to stop this.
00:11:23.080 And the top comes down with their solution.
00:11:25.720 Turns everything inside-out, and you're over.
00:11:27.760 And the right, some people on the right now are calling for an unrestrained executive, which scares the hell out of me.
00:11:35.220 But we have, if we look at just what has happened, Russiagate, we know started with Hillary Clinton and our intelligence agencies and our corrupt Justice Department.
00:11:48.860 They were all in on it.
00:11:50.220 They knew it.
00:11:51.140 The impeachment was really Biden and Ukraine.
00:11:55.080 The Trump impeachment was to cover those tracks, I believe.
00:11:58.700 All lies that the Justice Department and the Congress knew.
00:12:04.280 COVID, Event 201, Fauci, EcoHealth.
00:12:08.760 Then you have January 6th, which, I'm sorry, there's something really wrong there as well.
00:12:14.860 And the Hunter Biden laptops and everything else.
00:12:17.240 How do you stop this?
00:12:19.540 Because nobody seems to get punished for any of it.
00:12:23.380 Well, it's very difficult.
00:12:24.380 Just real quick on COVID.
00:12:25.540 The problem we have with COVID is so many people pushed the vaccines.
00:12:30.760 So many people were willing to ignore the vaccine injuries.
00:12:34.820 Nobody wants to admit they were wrong.
00:12:36.620 I mean, people who took the vaccine, they don't want to delve into the fact that you maybe got a ticking time bomb there, you know, circulating through your body.
00:12:43.440 Or maybe you just dodged a bullet and other people weren't quite so lucky.
00:12:46.380 So we've got a society that doesn't want to admit there's wrong.
00:12:50.400 And unfortunately, the COVID cartel has the, they can't afford to be proven wrong.
00:12:54.080 And they have the power to make it almost impossible to prove them wrong.
00:12:57.940 Remember, CIA, they're the folks that came up with the term conspiracy theorists.
00:13:02.360 To marginalize anybody who starts telling the truth.
00:13:05.800 So, no, it's very difficult.
00:13:07.040 But, Glenn, the only thing, the only way to combat this is by exposing the truth.
00:13:11.620 And it's very difficult.
00:13:12.660 I mean, Congress, we are vastly outmanned.
00:13:16.900 I mean, you've got tens, hundreds of thousands of people in these agencies.
00:13:21.020 Now, I've got five staff members on my permanent subcommittee investigation staff.
00:13:25.680 Five, okay?
00:13:28.200 And by the way, the Senate isn't interested in giving me any more funding.
00:13:32.360 My own Republican colleagues won't give me more funding.
00:13:36.340 Okay?
00:13:36.640 So we've got a real problem.
00:13:38.640 And as I said, these agencies have insulated themselves from congressional oversight,
00:13:43.920 from public scrutiny, from management of Republican administration, like the Trump administration.
00:13:49.520 We have a problem, and we've got Americans, we need Americans to open up their eyes, 0.82
00:13:55.200 pull their heads out of the sand, and realize what is happening to our country.
00:13:59.580 Because part of the problem is people don't want to believe this.
00:14:03.680 They don't want to believe that government or people in government can be so malign in their actions
00:14:08.900 that they'd be willing to just boldface lie to us in something that impacts our life and our health.
00:14:15.600 But, unfortunately, that is what has happened, and people need to understand that.
00:14:20.540 But, again, people like you, people like me that are trying to convey the truth, we just get vilified.
00:14:25.980 And, again, we get called conspiracy theorists as a way to marginalize our exposure to the truth.
00:14:32.340 Well, I don't care what anybody calls me, and I doubt that you do either, but it does make things more difficult.
00:14:37.800 I appreciate it.
00:14:38.900 I wanted to get you on because I wanted to hear what you were actually saying and compliment you for having the balls to say it,
00:14:46.680 because you did open yourself up to all kinds of stuff.
00:14:50.280 So keep saying it, Senator.
00:14:51.920 Keep saying it.
00:14:52.820 You too.
00:14:53.180 God bless you.
00:14:53.780 God bless you.
00:14:54.520 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:14:57.100 Tariq Johnson, welcome to the program, sir.
00:14:59.420 How are you?
00:15:00.880 Glenn, thank you for having me today.
00:15:02.500 I appreciate it very much.
00:15:03.660 You bet.
00:15:04.000 I have a few things that I want to play that came from another interview with Tucker Carlson and came out last week.
00:15:17.060 It is the former police chief.
00:15:19.780 And I want to play this before we get into our interview here.
00:15:24.220 Cut four.
00:15:24.820 Turns out that she was given some type of a secret leave so she could leave, start her job on February 1st as the chief of police and not retire from the Capitol Police for months later.
00:15:38.040 Oh, so she should get the benefits.
00:15:39.920 Yeah, think about that.
00:15:40.740 Yeah.
00:15:41.100 It appears to be against departmental policy.
00:15:43.700 You know, and nobody allegedly was told.
00:15:45.380 What you're saying is that the head of intelligence for the Capitol Police, which demonstrably didn't have the intelligence that needed to protect the building, that person was first elevated to acting chief of Capitol Police and then given a very high paying job right across Nancy Pelosi's district at the University of California, Berkeley.
00:16:05.480 That is correct.
00:16:06.020 And I will say that.
00:16:06.720 So that looks like a reward to me.
00:16:08.780 Well, I do know that the unit had significant intelligence.
00:16:12.580 And I know many people within the unit were pushing that intelligence up to the leadership of the unit.
00:16:17.920 So I do know that.
00:16:19.360 Many of them became whistleblowers and many of them were punished and forced to resign.
00:16:25.240 Yep.
00:16:27.700 This looks like a scam.
00:16:29.320 I mean, it just gets more convoluted.
00:16:32.260 You know, I do.
00:16:32.960 I feel so bad for the men and women in the police department, what they went through.
00:16:36.060 I feel so bad for the intelligence analysts and what they went through.
00:16:39.220 Many of them, you know, it was really, really bad.
00:16:42.580 I feel bad for the officials that were either demoted, forced to resign over this, forced to retire early.
00:16:49.940 There's a lot of people that need someone.
00:16:52.100 I think an outside entity needs to come in and do some investigation.
00:16:58.020 That's not good.
00:16:59.240 And to build on this story, Tarek joins us.
00:17:04.040 So you spoke to Hunter, and you said you didn't tell him everything.
00:17:10.640 What didn't you say?
00:17:12.440 Basically, what I did was I just gave some of the facts, and I was hoping that those facts would lead to a thorough investigation into Yogananda Pittman's actions before, during, and after January 6th.
00:17:31.100 And unfortunately, that did not happen.
00:17:33.000 So you're talking about the same person that the police chief is talking about there.
00:17:39.280 Absolutely.
00:17:40.540 And what exactly was her role?
00:17:44.360 She was in charge of Intel.
00:17:48.640 And when I say she was in charge of Intel, she was in charge of the intelligence on January 6th and anybody that worked in the intelligence division.
00:17:56.780 She was in charge of it all.
00:18:00.320 And her job was to get that information, and she was supposed to give that to, at the very least, two people.
00:18:07.440 So she was supposed to give that information to Steven Sund, and she was supposed to give that information to Chad Thomas.
00:18:14.560 He was the former—he is a former assistant chief of the Capitol Police, and his role on the day was he was in charge of operations, which had been the bureau in charge of getting the officers ready for what they were going to face on January 6th.
00:18:31.580 And she did not do that.
00:18:32.560 So when we found out that the FBI knew about this, the Justice Department knew about this, Nancy Pelosi knew about this in advance, it was—we can't necessarily blame the police for not knowing it, because it would have only come through her?
00:18:52.560 Now, if you let me walk you through—
00:18:55.560 Sure.
00:18:55.720 I'm going to need a couple of minutes to walk you through this.
00:18:57.880 Yeah, yeah.
00:18:57.900 Go ahead.
00:18:58.180 Now, I've been trying to get the—I would say the entire country to see Yogananda Pittman's significance in what occurred on January 6th.
00:19:09.740 And it's almost the same as the few people that were trying to explain to other people that the world was actually round and not flat.
00:19:19.020 So this is what I'm trying to get the country to see that the world is round and not flat.
00:19:23.900 Now, a lot of people, they want to focus on Nancy Pelosi, but you can talk about Nancy Pelosi.
00:19:32.000 You can talk about Joe Biden.
00:19:33.920 Neither one of those people could have occurred or could have made January 6th happen.
00:19:39.700 The only way January 6th can happen, you would have to get the consent and permission from Yogananda Pittman.
00:19:46.360 She is that pivotal.
00:19:47.660 Now, let me explain to you why.
00:19:49.300 And I'm going to do it—I'm going to use an analogy to make—to break it down and make it a little bit more easy.
00:19:56.460 Okay.
00:19:57.140 If you want to follow me.
00:19:58.280 Yeah, I am.
00:19:58.680 Let me know whenever you're ready.
00:19:59.860 I'm ready.
00:20:00.340 I got a pencil ready to go.
00:20:02.400 Okay.
00:20:03.120 So let's say that you have a grocery store.
00:20:07.060 And that grocery store, you have three different heads that work in the grocery store. 0.75
00:20:12.680 So you have the overall manager, you have the operations manager.
00:20:19.960 This person would be in charge of, like, the grocery store employee security around the grocery store.
00:20:25.520 And you would have the loss prevention manager.
00:20:29.160 That person obviously would be in charge of, you know, any thefts that occurred, of things that would be in the store.
00:20:36.800 So let's say that—I'm going to give these people names, and I'm just going to just make names up randomly.
00:20:43.140 Let's say the loss prevention manager was, let's just say, Pittman.
00:20:48.980 Let's say that the operations manager, let's give him the name of Thomas.
00:20:54.320 And let's call the overall manager—let's call him—let me think of a good name.
00:20:59.300 Let's call him Sund.
00:21:00.040 Okay, so now Sund is getting information, and there's information out there in the community that the store is going to be—is going to get robbed of all of the Twinkies, all of the steaks, the lamb chops, everything.
00:21:15.920 Somebody's going to come in there, and they're going to take all the lamb chops. 1.00
00:21:19.140 So now you're going to go to the loss prevention manager, and you're going to ask that manager, hey, what are you getting?
00:21:25.840 And the loss prevention manager is saying, listen, I'm not getting anything, right?
00:21:29.020 So now Sund, who is the store manager, he has to go get assistance from the local police department.
00:21:39.100 So he goes to the police department, and he says, hey, guys, I need some assistance.
00:21:43.620 I need some patrols.
00:21:44.740 I have a security guy, the guy with the white car with the orange overhead over top of that who drives around the store at night, but I need more than that.
00:21:52.460 I need police officers that are going to be doing around the clock, drive-bys by my store.
00:21:59.220 And the police chief of the local department says, Mr. Sund, I understand what you want.
00:22:04.260 He says, but what intelligence are you getting?
00:22:07.060 He says, well, I'm getting this, this, and this.
00:22:08.580 And the police chief says, I'm sorry, sir, the intelligence doesn't support it.
00:22:13.420 So now let's say that the loss prevention person, that's the name I gave to Pittman, has a report that says, well, there's going to be a guy coming to the store around 8 o'clock in the morning.
00:22:27.320 He's going to be bringing four of those big giant trucks that they normally deliver food in.
00:22:34.120 They're going to break into the store with about 10 guys, and they're going to take all the food out.
00:22:38.940 So now she has this report, but she either sits on this report or she downplays the report to the chief.
00:22:47.120 So the chief, I'm sorry, to the store manager.
00:22:50.100 So the store manager can't get the resources from the police department because the intelligence doesn't support it.
00:22:57.180 That's what happened on January 6th.
00:22:59.160 And to explain to you the significance of Yogananda Pittman.
00:23:04.140 So let's say that for argument's sake, and I'm not saying that this is the case, but Pelosi wanted this to happen.
00:23:09.940 Let's say Biden wanted this to happen.
00:23:11.540 And they call Yogananda Pittman and they say, listen, I'm going to order you not to give chief son any information related to January 6th.
00:23:19.660 You're not going to give him any information that would support the national guard.
00:23:24.500 You're going to downplay anything that's major because we need something to happen on January 6th.
00:23:29.280 And I'm not saying either one of them did that.
00:23:30.560 I'm just saying that.
00:23:31.740 I know I've heard in the atmosphere that I hear Nancy Pelosi's name a lot.
00:23:36.620 But now I know the position of the Speaker of the House and the line of succession that she's in to the presidency. 0.99
00:23:45.300 She's second in line.
00:23:46.540 If something happens to the vice president and the president, she will then become president.
00:23:50.280 So she's a very powerful person.
00:23:51.700 But understand this, even though she's powerful in her own arena, Yogananda Pittman was the most powerful person in her own arena.
00:24:01.420 So Pittman couldn't just call her and say, don't give any information to chief son because she can say, absolutely not.
00:24:07.280 I'm going to give chief son everything he needs and to do a good job and make sure that the Capitol is adequately prepared on January 6th.
00:24:15.260 Nobody can make Yogananda Pittman not do that.
00:24:17.860 So this is what I haven't said, and I'm going to have to say it now, because I just try to give the facts.
00:24:25.880 But sometimes you have to, and then when you go off and you tell people what you think, then they try to call you a conspiracy theorist.
00:24:31.620 But sometimes you have to tell people what you think and then let them make a decision if they believe is valid or not.
00:24:38.940 So obviously, to me, in my position, something or somebody made Yogananda Pittman feel that if she sat on or either downplayed the intelligence given to chief son about January 6th and something were to happen, chief son would take full responsibility for it, which he would because he is the actual chief of police.
00:25:02.440 And then Yogananda Pittman would become the chief.
00:25:05.820 That's what I believe would occur on January 6th.
00:25:08.300 And if you look at the report now, I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but it's 21 TD 159.
00:25:16.720 And it basically laid out what was going to occur on January 6th.
00:25:21.920 And even if you could try to make the argument when you go back to the store, well, you could say the intelligence said it was going to be four trucks that that the person brought when he broke in and they were going to take everything.
00:25:35.540 But this person only brought three trucks and he took 70 percent of what was available in the store.
00:25:41.060 So she's going to you're going to try to downplay it to make it seem like you didn't have the intelligence when you actually did have the intelligence.
00:25:49.200 So so I say all that to say January 6th cannot happen without her permission.
00:25:56.220 It cannot. It's impossible.
00:25:58.260 She is the alpha and omega of what occurred on January 6th.
00:26:02.040 And the world needs to know that no one can stop Yogananda Pittman from sending chief son.
00:26:09.000 The information he needed to get the support he needed from the National Guard.
00:26:13.540 She can sit on it.
00:26:15.240 She can downplay it.
00:26:16.540 And that's what I believe she did on January 6th at the very least leading up to January 6th.
00:26:21.900 And not that you're saying this at all.
00:26:25.560 And nor am I because I don't have any facts.
00:26:27.620 I just have I just have indications that she was rewarded with a job in Nancy Pelosi's district.
00:26:37.720 A very high level job.
00:26:40.320 She became the police of the Capitol Police chief.
00:26:44.200 It was her failure.
00:26:45.880 She was promoted and then she was allowed to take this job while still getting benefits from Capitol Police, which is which is against the rules.
00:26:58.280 Somebody had to make that happen.
00:27:01.320 And it may have been Nancy Pelosi, but somebody made that made that happen.
00:27:08.040 So that looks very suspicious as well.
00:27:10.720 Correct.
00:27:12.720 100 percent.
00:27:13.500 But let me even go back even before that.
00:27:16.060 Let's go back before she left the department. 1.00
00:27:17.820 Well, she didn't really leave the department until June.
00:27:21.580 But the but manger told everybody and that's Jay Thomas manger, who is the current chief of the Capitol Police.
00:27:28.860 He told everybody, I think it was called a we put out like upfronts.
00:27:33.620 And that's like basically an announcement to the department that, you know, any news and the news that he gave was that she was leaving the department back in February.
00:27:44.480 I think he put that out in November.
00:27:45.840 But anyway, 2022.
00:27:48.240 But anyway, let's go back.
00:27:50.840 So Yogananda Pittman was the chief on January the 8th.
00:27:54.900 She was made acting chief on January the 8th after chief son was fired.
00:27:58.340 And she was the chief acting chief until I believe it was July 23rd.
00:28:04.240 And then manger took over on July 24th of 2021.
00:28:10.340 So she was the acting chief for from that time, from January to July.
00:28:15.280 So when manger over, the first thing, one of his first actions is when he took over as when he took over as the chief from Yogananda Pittman.
00:28:24.720 Do you know what he did?
00:28:26.180 No.
00:28:26.660 OK, he made he he put Yogananda Pittman back in charge of intelligence.
00:28:32.960 Now, why do you do that?
00:28:34.540 Why would he do something like that?
00:28:36.120 He did it to send a message to any officer that was going to try to speak against Yogananda Pittman to let them know that even though she messed up, because everybody in the world knows she messed up, that it doesn't matter what she did.
00:28:50.160 This is Yogananda Pittman.
00:28:51.400 She's going to be your boss again. 1.00
00:28:52.980 And so the people who in Intel who went and reported her.
00:28:56.940 She became their boss again. 0.99
00:28:58.580 So what do you think that the people that that that the whistleblowers are thinking when you put her back in charge of them? 0.96
00:29:06.500 OK, all right.
00:29:08.160 Hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:29:09.180 Let's pursue this some more.
00:29:10.380 Let me give you a 60 seconds and then we're we're back.
00:29:13.100 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:29:15.000 We're talking to Tarek Johnson.
00:29:16.920 He is the former U.S. Capitol Police lieutenant.
00:29:20.580 He was policing on January 6th.
00:29:24.960 You might remember him.
00:29:26.160 He was on with Tucker Carlson and he didn't say what he just said.
00:29:32.020 And why didn't you say that then, Tarek?
00:29:36.680 I thought about it leading up to the days when I knew I would be taping for his show.
00:29:42.520 Now, I had a, you know, I had feelings and I had and I was in thoughts and I was thinking to myself and I went back and forth, went back and forth.
00:29:52.100 I don't want Tucker Carlson to think I'm crazy.
00:29:55.480 And if I tell him, you know, all the backstories about what occurred on January 6th, leading up to it on January 6th, after January 6th, I said that this man is going to think that I'm a conspiracy theorist.
00:30:08.760 So I want to, you know, I didn't want to try to bury myself and bury the story before he aired it.
00:30:16.200 Isn't it weird, though?
00:30:17.060 I just gave him the facts.
00:30:18.380 Some of the facts.
00:30:19.200 Isn't it weird, though, that you would be called a conspiracy theorist and probably on the side of Donald Trump when you voted for Joe Biden?
00:30:27.260 Did you not?
00:30:27.780 I did.
00:30:28.480 Now, I did vote for Joe Biden.
00:30:32.000 Now, I voted for Donald Trump, though, in 2016, originally.
00:30:38.460 And the only reason why I did not vote for Donald Trump in 2020 was because, like, the way I am, I am a person.
00:30:45.260 I believe, like, the unity in our country is a huge deal to me.
00:30:49.700 Yeah.
00:30:50.380 Like, it means, like, more like, my politics lean right, no question.
00:30:55.860 Absolutely lean right.
00:30:57.440 But I just want unity.
00:30:59.540 That was it.
00:31:00.080 And I didn't know if Donald Trump could do it in 2020.
00:31:03.080 That was the only reason why I didn't vote for him in 2020.
00:31:05.720 You don't have to justify it.
00:31:08.100 I just wanted it out there because I know a lot of people question me, you know, and I don't know if Biden can create unity in our country, but I think maybe he has the best shot.
00:31:20.580 So that's why.
00:31:21.240 But but getting back to what you said, yes, you know, and not based on a conspiracy.
00:31:26.340 There is based on my knowledge and my who I voted for.
00:31:31.500 I thought he was going to think I was a conspiracy.
00:31:33.680 There is because of what I was saying, because what I was saying was it's a conspiracy.
00:31:39.780 OK, so hang on just a sec.
00:31:41.100 I've got to take another break.
00:31:42.660 Let me let me come back because I want to know how you know this stuff.
00:31:46.580 And are we are we going to be able to prove any of this?
00:31:55.220 How can we prove this?
00:31:57.120 What should be done next?
00:31:58.700 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:32:00.580 And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.
00:32:03.800 Tariq Johnson joins us.
00:32:05.120 He is former U.S. Capitol Police lieutenant.
00:32:07.740 And let me just recap where we were.
00:32:09.720 If you're just coming in, he gave an analogy of a grocery store.
00:32:13.840 What happened on January 6th is like a grocery store.
00:32:17.800 You have two people.
00:32:19.540 You have the chief of intelligence.
00:32:21.780 You have the head of the store.
00:32:24.000 OK, and the store manager runs all of the operations and everything.
00:32:28.720 But you have this theft prevention person that is in charge of anything that goes down and is looking for intelligence all the time on somebody is going to come in.
00:32:38.900 And still, you know, you've got a gang coming in and their job is to know what's happening security wise.
00:32:46.120 And they get briefings all the time.
00:32:48.120 So the store manager is starting to hear that where I hear rumblings that something is coming and goes to the security, the theft manager, the theft management person and says, are you are you hearing this?
00:33:01.100 Because this is what I'm hearing.
00:33:02.040 And they say, no, even though they have heard that and have good intelligence on it, they, for some reason, say no.
00:33:11.420 Then the the head of the store or the chief of police then goes and reaches out for help.
00:33:18.940 So the store manager goes out to the police and said, hey, we're going to need help.
00:33:25.860 I'd like some people to parole, patrol the area and watch over the store because something is coming.
00:33:33.140 The police chief then says, well, what does your theft prevention person say?
00:33:39.000 Well, she said there wasn't anything.
00:33:41.480 The chief of the chief of police then reaches out to her and says, do you have anything on this?
00:33:47.800 No, no, no, I don't.
00:33:49.560 Even though she does.
00:33:51.460 No, I don't.
00:33:54.380 The store manager is left going, OK, well, I must be wrong and I can't get any help.
00:34:00.960 So I'll just sit here and he does nothing.
00:34:04.900 But it is the theft prevention person that knew that something was happening and sat on it for some unknown reason.
00:34:14.180 Now, that reason could be.
00:34:17.840 I don't know.
00:34:18.600 She hates the store or she is in with the burglars or she has some other reason that we don't know.
00:34:25.840 But we know she sat on the information.
00:34:29.180 That's what happened on January 6th.
00:34:32.360 Tariq, the name of the woman who was the theft prevention in this scenario is Pittman, right?
00:34:41.300 Yes.
00:34:41.700 And the other piece of the information is on, you know, not connected to this.
00:34:50.660 We don't have evidence not connected to this.
00:34:53.700 As soon as it happens, the store manager, he's fired and blamed.
00:34:59.960 And the theft manager person is moved in to his job.
00:35:07.420 Yes.
00:35:08.060 And she also fires the operations manager, too, because that operations manager would have been her direct competition to get in the chief's job or the manager's job. 1.00
00:35:19.060 So she fires him, too.
00:35:20.060 So everybody who is working at the store theft management with this individual, they start blowing the whistle and they say, hey, hey, hey, there's there's a problem here.
00:35:31.480 She had the information.
00:35:32.780 And those people are whistleblowers.
00:35:35.900 And then when the new guy comes into town, she goes back to the theft prevention and clears out all of that stuff.
00:35:45.160 Correct?
00:35:46.360 Correct.
00:35:47.260 That's bad.
00:35:48.760 Very, very bad.
00:35:50.500 It's horrible.
00:35:51.220 And like you said, before you before we went to break, you said, what can we do?
00:35:58.960 Well, I want to know first, how do you know this?
00:36:02.260 I have a lot of people that that I'm still connected to within the Capitol Police and outside the Capitol Police.
00:36:10.860 And they call me and they get me information with regularity.
00:36:14.020 So I have a ton of information.
00:36:16.460 This is the thing, though, Glenn.
00:36:18.020 And we don't have they're not we don't have any proper whistleblower protection.
00:36:25.520 So people can't really come out and speak because if they do, they will get destroyed.
00:36:32.760 Well, wait a minute.
00:36:33.840 How come you can't, you know, reach out to somebody like Jim Jordan at the Capitol, you know, at the Capitol?
00:36:40.640 Do you not trust the Republican, at least leadership or those who are looking at the weaponization of government?
00:36:50.200 I think it's hard to put that on them to investigate something to something like this.
00:36:57.200 But I guess the easy answer for me to say is I don't know.
00:37:00.780 And I'll tell you that when I say I don't know, I've been I reached out because I was a whistleblower.
00:37:07.280 So on January the 9th, I called Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont.
00:37:12.760 And that's somebody that you you knew you worked with him, right?
00:37:16.680 Yes, I did.
00:37:17.620 So because like I'm a longtime Capitol Police official at that time, I was.
00:37:22.700 So I knew never to call the I.G.
00:37:25.920 So why, why, why?
00:37:28.760 Because the I.G. is going to go back and tell the chief everything.
00:37:32.340 So you can't go try to tell on somebody and then they're going to go tell on you that you try to tell on him.
00:37:40.680 That's what that's what telling the that's what calling the I.G. would have done.
00:37:43.600 So I knew never to call the I.G.
00:37:45.040 I was told that multiple times.
00:37:47.060 I was told a lot of other places not to go, but nobody can really tell me who you go to.
00:37:52.080 So I just rolled the dice and took it on my own and I called the senator.
00:37:56.480 Now, I'm not blaming Senator Leahy for anything.
00:37:58.900 All I know is that I called him.
00:38:00.920 I told him that Pittman did all this because I believe in four and I believe it can easily be proven that Pittman did this to our country almost in whole primarily.
00:38:11.240 And we can prove it, but we have to do a real investigation.
00:38:15.540 And to do that, you have to find some kind of a way to protect the whistleblowers.
00:38:22.080 Okay.
00:38:26.360 I have a couple of people in Washington that I trust.
00:38:30.160 Would you be willing to talk to them if I line it up for you?
00:38:34.720 Yes.
00:38:35.480 Okay.
00:38:35.780 100%.
00:38:36.300 There's very few people I trust in Washington, but I know a couple that I think would be willing to at least help you find the right trustworthy person to go to if it is not them.
00:38:52.940 So you did all the right things and then you were suspended and then you were suspended for 17 months and then you came back, right?
00:39:09.600 And you had four days of retraining.
00:39:13.080 So what happened?
00:39:14.760 So I knew I wasn't going to come back.
00:39:18.200 All I wanted to do was process back in.
00:39:21.040 So and then the way that it works on the Capitol Police, they gave me one of my punishments was a 15 day unpaid suspension.
00:39:28.720 So when they told me to come back, I was on paid suspension the 17 months that I was out.
00:39:34.240 So now I wanted, I didn't want to come back at all, but I wanted to process back in, fulfill my 15 days of unpaid suspension.
00:39:43.280 So they can't say I didn't leave in good standing because had I left before serving the suspension, they would have said I didn't leave in good standing and they wouldn't award me my good standing card and letter.
00:39:53.900 Because you have to get your good standing card and letter and it makes it easier to transverse to a new federal agency or another law enforcement agency.
00:40:01.840 And I got that.
00:40:03.440 So do you think, hang on just a second.
00:40:04.960 I know you have another job and I don't want to talk about where you are.
00:40:08.540 I don't want any more trouble, but for you.
00:40:11.180 But did you really think you could get back into law enforcement with the federal government?
00:40:18.280 I can with absolute certainty.
00:40:20.600 It'll be easy for me because I got my good standing card and letter.
00:40:23.480 The reason why I did not is because I didn't want a job like those jobs.
00:40:28.860 If I get a job that's befitting of my skills and abilities, those are hard paying jobs and they require a lot of work.
00:40:36.620 And I did not want to not be able to focus on January 6th stuff.
00:40:41.500 Like this is a moral thing for me.
00:40:43.840 Like I am morally invested into this.
00:40:45.620 People are in jail.
00:40:47.880 Some probably shouldn't even be.
00:40:49.380 Or at the very least, they have more charges and more years attributed to them that they wouldn't have if the facts of what really occurred on January 6th came out.
00:40:59.560 So no, I can't focus on that.
00:41:02.240 I have to focus on that.
00:41:03.180 So we've only talked about Pittman.
00:41:06.580 Okay.
00:41:06.940 She's the security intel person.
00:41:09.800 And you claim that she knew about it and we could prove it with an investigation.
00:41:15.780 She knew about it.
00:41:16.900 Uh, and then for some reason sat quietly.
00:41:21.040 Do you have any, do you have any idea of why she would do that?
00:41:26.580 That is, um, because I believe that someone or something or something gave her the impression that if chief son was fired for doing a bad job, because things got out of hand on January 6th, she would then become the new chief.
00:41:43.340 It was basically a coup of the department.
00:41:46.260 She tried to initiate a coup of the department is basically what occurred, uh, in the, um, and who would tell her, wait, who would tell her?
00:41:55.980 I mean, you know, most Americans would say, well, no, I, I mean, I want to protect the Capitol.
00:42:01.980 And then you could see those who are greedy enough that they want their job.
00:42:05.640 And so they'll let bad things happen.
00:42:07.500 But who would tell her that, Hey, we're going to make this happen for you.
00:42:12.220 Just turn the other way.
00:42:13.720 I would say probably someone that hated Donald Trump.
00:42:16.420 And what kind of, uh, what kind of information do you think she had that there was going to be a planned attack on the Capitol that FBI sources were saying?
00:42:34.840 Yeah.
00:42:36.240 Um, she had the report that it was a planned attack of the Capitol and what they were going to do.
00:42:40.280 It's called 21 TD 159.
00:42:43.020 And she would not give it to son.
00:42:44.340 She had the report.
00:42:45.880 And, um, like there are names that you guys, um, know, like you guys know who Ray F is.
00:42:51.860 You don't know who Julie Farnham is.
00:42:53.800 You know who Mike is.
00:42:55.500 Who?
00:42:56.060 We didn't know who, what was the first name?
00:42:59.500 Julie Farnham.
00:43:01.040 Who is Julie Farnham? 1.00
00:43:02.900 Um, you know, I said like the, I mean, like everybody knows who Ray F is, but Julie Farnham is, she was a civilian.
00:43:09.260 Uh, and she was one of the high ranking people in the Intel section.
00:43:12.560 So you don't know who she is, but you know who Ray F is.
00:43:16.800 So people don't know to, um, where to look to really find out what occurred on January 6th in the intelligence.
00:43:24.460 Because if January 6th was truly an intelligence failure, the first place you have to go is to the intelligence division and look at every single person in the intelligence division.
00:43:36.000 And that did not happen.
00:43:37.200 Because everybody should know who Pittman is.
00:43:40.180 Everybody should know who Julie Farnham is. 0.98
00:43:43.540 And who is Julie Farnham?
00:43:45.920 She was the civilian and she was one of the civilians, one of the high ranking civilians in charge of getting that information and disseminating, disseminating that information to Pittman.
00:43:56.500 And she was hired, from what I'm hearing, with very little to no, which was, in law enforcement, I'm hearing she had no experience.
00:44:05.720 And then when it came to Intel, she only had like three years of experience.
00:44:09.160 And she was hired by Pittman.
00:44:13.540 Huh.
00:44:15.220 Okay.
00:44:15.960 All right.
00:44:16.700 Um, so is it, is it possible this is just incompetence?
00:44:22.720 Anything's possible, but, um, when, so now it,
00:44:26.500 even if it is incompetence, um, whether it was a competence, whether it was on purpose,
00:44:31.360 how are we going to know if we don't investigate it?
00:44:34.200 True.
00:44:36.260 Okay.
00:44:36.700 We have to investigate.
00:44:37.780 Okay.
00:44:38.340 We need to know who these people are and exactly what they did.
00:44:41.860 All right.
00:44:42.640 Tarek, I, I want to, uh, continue the conversation with our producers and our investigators.
00:44:49.840 Um, and I also, I'm going to reach out to a couple of people that may be able to help you, uh,
00:44:54.880 at least find the right person that you can, you and the whistleblowers can actually, uh,
00:45:01.080 show the evidence of these things and feel as safe as anyone could possibly feel now in
00:45:06.720 Washington.
00:45:08.180 Yeah.
00:45:08.700 And I do, I would like to say this, I'm not targeting any member of Congress.
00:45:12.520 I'm not putting fault or blame on any members of Congress, but if you watch the last, um,
00:45:19.280 one of the last congressional hearings with manger, I think it was July 26.
00:45:23.540 And one of the congressmen was trying to get, um, I guess, chief manger to basically, um,
00:45:31.560 lift the NDA and, uh, and chief manger, or at the very least, uh, one of the other things
00:45:37.480 he wanted to know, he, they wanted to see Yogananda Pittman's agreement and, and, and
00:45:43.100 manger said, no.
00:45:44.420 So obviously Congress is not powerful enough to get manger to do what needs to be done to
00:45:51.020 effect a real investigation.
00:45:52.560 All right.
00:45:53.500 Um, Tarek, thank you.
00:45:55.400 Uh, I appreciate it.
00:45:56.600 I appreciate your honesty.
00:45:57.520 I appreciate the fact that you are kept awake at night and this is a moral cause for you.
00:46:02.640 Thank you so much.
00:46:07.480 Thank you.
