tulsi gabbard hi tulsi how are you i'm good it's great to see you good to see you um first of all
00:06:48.180
how's everything in hawaii we prayed for you and everybody thank you so much thank you thankfully um
00:06:54.940
the tsunami passed without any real damage uh i was talking to my folks and friends uh and family
00:07:01.840
there uh late last night here on the east coast and just trying to help make sure everyone was
00:07:07.040
prepared for the worst which is what you have to do it looked like it was going to be quite
00:07:12.060
potentially very damaging they were looking at one to three meter uh waves essentially like 10 foot
00:07:17.980
waves horrible uh that you know in any respect is kind of a it's a tough day in the ocean but for a
00:07:24.260
tsunami that would have been disastrous and so again thankfully everyone is safe and uh minimal
00:07:30.100
minimal effect so let's go into what has been released and uh what is still yet to come you
00:07:39.420
know as i look at the stuff that has you know in the declassified documents of russiagate um
00:07:45.000
it confirms what many of us have already known um are you surprised at anything at the media
00:07:53.760
not reporting any of this i mean we've known a lot of this but now the media is absolutely silent on
00:08:01.000
it and and people seem to be deleting posts and no longer commenting online what's happening yes
00:08:09.940
uh i am not surprised that the mainstream media is refusing to cover this and if they do mention it
00:08:17.280
uh their approach is to try to uh diminish the effect and the impact of the revelations the
00:08:26.040
historic revelations that were found in the documents that we declassified and released or
00:08:31.760
to try to bring voice to detractors and critics who also just say oh well this is bizarre or this is
00:08:38.520
crazy but when you actually look at the coverage and you look at some of the comments and the quotes
00:08:43.340
that the mainstream media may be choosing to publish or highlight they're not actually getting
00:08:49.520
after the very specific uh pieces of evidence that were released that quote people like john brennan
00:08:56.740
who was the cia director and james clapper who was obama's director of national intelligence
00:09:01.900
uh they are not giving voice to the intelligence professionals who in these reports that we released
00:09:08.460
were protesting against the very malicious actions that people like brennan and clapper uh uh were taking
00:09:17.320
at president obama's direction to create this intelligence assessment that was filled with falsehoods
00:09:24.160
uh they're not giving voice to these intelligence professionals because they recognize that it would
00:09:29.660
push forward a very inconvenient truth for the mainstream media because it exposes their complicity
00:09:35.860
in pushing this lie and this hoax from not only day one but throughout president trump's entire
00:09:43.380
first administration and all of these people are still i mean brennan clapper they they have been the
00:09:49.600
source on so many things and they're in with the media and i wonder if this is just part of more of
00:09:57.380
the same that they're asking them is there anything to this and they say no there's not in fact it's a
00:10:01.760
whatever and then i also wonder how many people are you surrounded by that are still part of that
00:10:09.800
old system it's it's a good question uh as we are finding these documents going through them
00:10:18.160
declassifying and releasing them we are learning more about who is actually directly involved and
00:10:24.040
implicated in this we're learning more about who may have been in the room and who was loudly
00:10:29.960
protesting against it recognizing how wrong it was uh we have whistleblowers coming forward with their
00:10:37.080
own documentation of their protests and their unwillingness to go along with this uh so yes
00:10:42.820
there are people who are still working within the intelligence community who had a hand in this as we are
00:10:48.980
identifying them uh it will give us the opportunity to make sure that uh they and others like them who
00:10:57.200
again are are so willing to weaponize intelligence to subvert the will of the american people uh can no
00:11:03.620
longer work in the intelligence community so devin nunez cash patel all these guys were in the last time
00:11:11.240
trump was in this was produced in the last administration why wasn't this why did this come out
00:11:18.320
you know it's a good question and and it's an obvious one i can't speak for those who were there
00:11:25.640
at that time but i've asked some of these same questions and they were facing i can't speak for
00:11:30.760
all of them but for uh devin for example and for cash they were up against uh the deep state in many cases
00:11:38.620
who refused to release these documents uh if you remember uh mike pompeo was president trump's i think he
00:11:46.260
was his first cia director followed by gina haspel i was told gina haspel refused to release these
00:11:53.720
documents so again the more that uh we find in the documentation as whistleblowers come forward
00:12:00.780
i think the the story will continue to be told about what actually happened and why it is that here we are
00:12:08.340
in 2025 and again this won't surprise many people who've been following this story very closely for years
00:12:15.380
uh but the fact that we have documented evidence and proof is the thing that matters both to shine
00:12:21.920
a light on the truth that this wasn't something that that was in someone's imagination or concocted
00:12:27.060
but i think even most importantly that can drive towards accountability so uh fox news had an exclusive
00:12:33.740
that said uh cash patel found thousands of sensitive documents related to the origins of the trump
00:12:40.040
russia probe buried in multiple burn bags in secret rooms inside the bureau what's a burn bag
00:12:47.980
a burn bag is something that you'll find in many offices throughout the intelligence community
00:12:54.640
uh throughout you know these different workspaces in in national security basically if i have a document
00:13:01.840
that's that's highly uh classified i read it i review it i'm done with it my copy can then go in the burn
00:13:10.740
bag to make sure that it's not uh doesn't end up in in the wrong hands that there's not an unauthorized
00:13:16.060
disclosure of classified information it's a very different story however if you use a burn bag
00:13:22.740
to try to get rid of evidence of which maybe there is only one copy of and then hide it in a secret room
00:13:29.940
in the fbi that is a tactic obviously that has been used by those deep staters these bad actors within
00:13:36.200
the intelligence community to try to get rid of evidence another tactic that's often used is is
00:13:42.420
over classifying information this is what happened with the steel dossier uh this was already widely
00:13:49.100
publicized as a discredited document but what john brennan did and james clapper did as the cia director
00:13:56.080
and the the obama's director of national intelligence they didn't want anybody to know
00:14:00.820
that they used the steel dossier as a source for this intelligence assessment that was filled with
00:14:06.520
falsehoods they published in january of 2017 as well as other really really shoddy intelligence
00:14:12.380
sources that would not be acceptable on any to be used on any topic because because they were not
00:14:19.940
deemed credible they wanted to hide all of this from members of congress perhaps who are reading this
00:14:26.000
and the american people uh and president trump then president elect trump at that time and so they
00:14:32.340
they over classified it in a way that there were less than 10 people who could access it and then they
00:14:38.860
locked up the only hard copy documents this this document did not exist um uh on digits the the document
00:14:47.700
that actually exposed this was the document that we released uh they locked that document up uh and the
00:14:53.720
the five copies that existed in a safe uh and the first time it had been seen uh certainly in public
00:15:00.500
but even by many within the government was when we released it about a week ago uh um sunday john
00:15:08.340
radcliffe uh said that um there's more declassification of intelligence coming out that shows how deep this
00:15:15.800
went he said it's stunning any idea on the timeline of that i i it's going through the declassification
00:15:22.940
process right now i expect it to be released uh very soon i think the document uh will speak for
00:15:28.840
itself and once again it will i think confirm what a lot of people have already known to be true
00:15:35.240
but it'll connect a lot of the dots that that uh have not been revealed in public before are you
00:15:41.500
sensing with i mean let's see mark elias uh stopped posting on x uh brennan has lawyered up
00:15:50.320
uh john carey has made his account private um peter struck deleted his entire x history um are you
00:16:00.040
sensing they feel the walls are closing in that for in my view that's the only way that i can read
00:16:07.080
this situation those who are truly innocent would not be taking those kinds of actions and once again
00:16:14.300
this is why it's so important uh to declassify this information to get the truth out because it it's
00:16:21.860
something that for anyone who is mildly objective uh is is irrefutable and undeniable and can be used
00:16:30.520
uh and is currently being reviewed by the department of justice uh to bring about accountability for
00:16:36.640
those involved uh we were talking before we went on the air and uh i said you know i'm really i'm
00:16:45.620
struggling with my job right now um because i don't i don't it at times doesn't seem like it it's worth
00:16:53.100
it it makes any difference at all because i don't know what i believe in i don't know what's true anymore
00:16:57.660
tulsi i don't know you know i can't sit here and on the air and talk about problems if there's not a
00:17:04.060
solution it feels insane it feels insane i keep doing the same thing over and over again beating
00:17:09.860
the head against the wall and saying look at here's proof here's proof here's proof and nothing
00:17:14.440
happens do you do you sense that do you think the people around you understand how what danger the
00:17:24.180
country is in right now because they just don't believe there's justice on any front well first
00:17:32.680
glenn let me just tell you how important your voice is uh i think the first i'm serious i'm not just
00:17:41.200
patronizing you uh it it is your voice and voices like yours where you have the ability to reach and
00:17:49.300
impact people from uh all political stripes different backgrounds different walks of life across the
00:17:55.860
country who are not paying as close attention i'm just going to keep talking here who are not paying as
00:18:02.160
close attention you're not paying as close attention to these things in the way that you and your team
00:18:07.920
are and your ability to communicate first the first the first uh challenge and opportunity is
00:18:15.400
to be able to communicate to the american people why they should care about this at all right what the
00:18:21.980
implications of what we have released and exposed truly are not just for president trump not just for
00:18:29.500
republicans or for democrats but for the integrity of our democratic republic and the tactics that are
00:18:36.800
being used by the deep state and have been used in order to in this case uh essentially subvert the will
00:18:43.880
of the american people because uh you know president obama and and his cohort were not happy that president
00:18:50.860
trump got elected so the first thing is being able to really communicate clearly the implications of this on our
00:18:58.200
republic the second piece of this yes it is the accountability piece and i understand the
00:19:04.500
frustration but but our system is set up in the way that it is by our visionary founding fathers what we
00:19:13.880
have to do is fulfill our duty focused on the constitution yes uh and providing uh this mechanism for
00:19:21.580
accountability uh for accountability uh for accountability to take place and doing what
00:19:26.860
the american people uh really have done best since the founding of our country which is recognizing the
00:19:33.420
power in each of our voices to make sure that we are calling for that necessary action uh to begin to
00:19:41.100
restore uh that trust i i i'm sure you can relate i mean i um dan bongino posted a cryptic message on x the
00:19:49.980
other day i read it yeah he said it shocked me what i found out that at my time at the fbi has shocked me
00:19:56.900
down to the core we cannot run a republic like this and i'll never be the same after learning what i've
00:20:02.780
learned i'm not expecting you to answer for him but have you felt that way when you've gotten with being
00:20:09.280
there uh i have seen up close and personal the tactics that are used by those who care more for
00:20:16.940
themselves their ambition their job their influence their political interests uh their selfish uh
00:20:25.240
self-serving interests then they care about the constitution that every single one of these law
00:20:31.120
enforcement and intelligence community professionals swear an oath just like i have both in uniform in the
00:20:37.180
military and as a member of congress and as director of national intelligence to support and defend the
00:20:41.420
constitution of the united states this is why what we are doing matters so much so yes i have my own
00:20:47.700
frustrations trust me but my resolve is focused uh and is rooted in my love for our country and my belief
00:20:58.360
in the values and principles that our country was founded upon and therefore the responsibility
00:21:04.080
that i carry to do something about that which we are revealing that which i am seeing and experiencing
00:21:12.260
firsthand uh it is a heavy responsibility but it's also an awesome one and i spend every day
00:21:18.760
doing my best to fulfill it you know we've talked before and i've i've said to you you are in the second
00:21:23.780
most dangerous job i think in the nation you know president trump is in the most dangerous job in the
00:21:28.440
nation and i think you know you're working around some you know people that do this kind of stuff for a
00:21:32.920
living and we pray for your safety uh every night i'm uh going to continue the conversation with
00:21:40.440
tulsi gabbard uh in uh in a minute um and i i'm going to switch you know last night i did a tv show that
00:21:48.360
um is on fire right now um and it it basically is showing you the connections uh to the radicals that
00:22:00.380
are on the street and in the show i i said you know why why why haven't why hasn't antifa been
00:22:07.920
uh deemed a terrorist organization yet i mean how are these guys not arrested how are we not
00:22:17.300
investigating them for terror because that's what they're trying to do they're trying to change
00:22:22.080
political uh leanings you know change the country's policies or change politics here uh through fear and
00:22:30.320
intimidation and violence that's the definition of terror uh we're gonna pick it up with uh tulsi on
00:22:36.820
that uh here in in just a second let me say hello to stew hi stew glenn how are you very good very good
00:22:44.380
good tulsi uh laying it out for us this morning
00:22:48.500
yes she is yeah can't wait to do what stew is saying here is he got very little sleep last night
00:22:57.900
and uh he really hasn't paid attention to a word that anybody has been saying for probably
00:23:05.000
maybe two hours since he's been up yeah yeah that's that's i would say that's the best
00:23:09.260
summary yeah of my day so far yes that's but that's okay that's why tulsi's carrying the the show
00:23:16.080
you know she's she's bringing we certainly don't look to you to carry the show no definitely not and
00:23:21.940
that's advisable again you're in the radio hall of fame for a reason making judgments just like that
00:23:26.420
congratulations all right back with tulsi gambert on terror and uh antifa coming up in just a second
00:23:35.520
that was your insight that's your insight okay i thought i nailed that not really this is glenn
00:23:49.560
back all right you're halfway through your coffee when you hear it that strange noise outside again
00:23:55.280
third time this week you don't want to overreact you also don't want to wish later that you had
00:23:59.680
acted you slide the door lock into place just in case head to the bedroom where your burn a compact
00:24:04.860
launcher is waiting sits on the nightstand in a small lock box legal to own legal to carry no permit
00:24:10.320
required loaded with non-lethal pepper pepper projectiles or tear gas it'll stop the attacker
00:24:15.760
right in their tracks we always hope that we don't need to defend ourselves but if that moment does
00:24:20.940
come when fight or flight isn't a choice you'll want something that's lightweight fast effective and
00:24:26.820
safe to store around kids the compact launcher from burna is small enough to tuck into a drawer

learn more or try before you buy at a sportsman's warehouse location near you i'm gonna tell you they've
00:24:54.360
moved every bit of their operations that they can move here to the united states uh following trump's
00:25:00.660
directive uh really patriotic group of people burna burna b-y-r-n-a dot com we have more with the
00:25:08.720
wonderful tulsi gabbard coming up right here on the glenbeck program
00:25:12.880
back to our tulsi gabbard uh interview let me switch subjects here for just a second last night i did a
00:25:36.220
show on um the really the coming insurrection the the the cabal of uh socialists and islamists and
00:25:48.500
anarchists that are looking to destabilize and overthrow the western world and it's clear that's
00:25:55.540
what's happening right now and in the middle of the show i wondered why hasn't antifa been labeled
00:26:03.100
a terror organization yet why why aren't we going after people for terror is is this not terror what
00:26:09.920
they're trying to do yeah it's funny you should mention that because uh i i released several
00:26:16.700
documents back in may that really laid out the foundational documents and strategy that the
00:26:23.120
biden administration used uh in labeling groups and individuals as domestic violent extremists you
00:26:30.180
remember this uh and you know it was like hey if parents are angry that or worried that their kids
00:26:37.760
may get the covid vaccine at school without their approval they may be a potential domestic violent
00:26:44.300
extremist you know we had the radical traditionalist catholics the then fbi under obama i mean these are
00:26:51.420
examples of of what they did but was what was also interesting was how they diminished antifa
00:26:57.180
under the biden administration downplaying the threat that they posed again to the safety and
00:27:03.340
security of our communities uh the thing that that really i you really touched on and pointed to
00:27:09.220
um that that doesn't get focused on often enough is the ideology uh that's driving these groups uh who do
00:27:17.000
pose a direct threat to the fabric of our country uh and to the safety and security of the american people
00:27:23.120
i mean uh they don't seem to be afraid of anything they've never really paid a price nobody even
00:27:29.260
names them um and and really says what they are and what they're doing uh i talked to a guy who used
00:27:37.460
to be in kind of the world you live in now uh and uh i said can we even win this fight without naming it
00:27:46.200
and he said we can but not the way we're fighting he said they fight day and night we fight sometimes
00:27:54.480
during the day we have to be nighttime fighters as well i didn't want to ask him exactly what he meant
00:28:01.220
by that um but uh do you would you agree with that i do i i think being very vigilant and being very
00:28:10.300
clear-eyed uh about again the ideology that's driving a lot of these people who are here within
00:28:17.840
our country uh who are directly working against again the constitution the founding principles of
00:28:24.440
our country uh and and really the american way of life um there there has to be more of a focus for
00:28:32.640
example on those who run around the streets uh uh chanting pro hamas mantras and calls for intifada
00:28:41.720
and action uh you know there there's those who are disturbing the peace okay sure but again it's the
00:28:49.340
ideology uh that's driving these individuals um that that is quite dangerous one last question uh kind
00:28:57.220
of going back to what we were talking about as we're talking about these extremists i see people you
00:29:00.900
know the ceo of united health care was shot everybody you know 40 percent of of you think that that was
00:29:07.760
great um if you go if pam bondy actually goes and charges these people you know that the press is
00:29:17.200
going to say see this is the weaponization of government and they're going to flip the script
00:29:21.960
entirely and a lot of people will believe that because the media will carry all of that water
00:29:27.340
how how concerned are we about the reaction of the left on the streets with every move that donald trump
00:29:36.760
makes every move like this does that play a role should it play a role in how we proceed we have to
00:29:45.100
stand strong for the truth we have to stand strong for justice uh and the constitution and for freedom
00:29:51.620
these are things that many of these bad actors here uh frankly don't believe in the mainstream media
00:29:59.360
will do what they do i think there is a positive here and that fewer and few people fewer and fewer
00:30:05.360
people actually read the mainstream media fewer people actually believe in them i just saw cnn and
00:30:12.580
msnbc's uh viewership numbers from the last week absolutely abysmal uh there is a rise of viewers and
00:30:21.320
listeners who are tuning into shows like yours and to different podcasts and and the new media that
00:30:27.600
really represents more not just people with one view but really represents real authentic dialogue
00:30:33.900
and conversation versus the filtered um agenda filled narrative that the mainstream media pushes
00:30:41.080
tulsi um i'm glad we're friends i'm glad i know you i'm glad i live at a time where someone like you
00:30:49.160
can serve the fact that you were a democrat um that you switched when you did um and that you have
00:30:57.660
always approached everything that i've ever seen you in with the same attitude that you approached your
00:31:03.760
oath for service to the military and that gives me hope so thank you for everything you've done i i
00:31:11.440
appreciate your friendship glenn and uh we must be filled with hope because god is love and in god's
00:31:20.820
love is where we find hope and it's in times like this where we lean on our faith in god's love uh and
00:31:28.680
in knowing that if we do our best to fulfill his will then things will work out as he has planned
00:31:34.940
amen amen thank you tulsi god bless thank you you too tulsi gabbard uh i really like her yeah i do too
00:31:43.320
i do too i mean i don't agree with her on everything but neither do i uh but i like the fact that you don't
00:31:49.360
have to you know what i mean your comment there at the end i think was uh was how i would describe it
00:31:55.140
too is like she just seems to take this seriously care about the country uh rather than herself and
00:32:02.380
you know that even when takes her oath yeah seriously seriously yeah yeah you know she you
00:32:07.580
know she's willing i mean she could have gotten out of her service you know easily uh you know and
00:32:14.600
and you know done other things and she continues to serve uh and she serves honorably and she is a
00:32:21.660
fighter but doesn't believe in war except when it's absolutely necessary i mean i i i really respect her
00:32:29.460
really respect her there's not a lot of politicians like her i wouldn't even put her in a would you put
00:32:34.500
her in the category of i mean she is a congresswoman right i know but she doesn't seem like it you know
00:32:39.400
she is as far away from a nancy pelosi kind of politician you as you can get yeah yeah would you
00:32:46.860
who do you who would you take more seriously would it be like her eric swalwell if you had to come
00:32:52.500
down to it's a tough one it's a tough one it is a tough one by the way uh trump was talking about
00:32:57.480
uh nancy pelosi and insider trading yesterday can you play cut 19 please here's trump on nancy pelosi
00:33:04.320
senator holly introduced legislation that would ban members of congress from winning or trading
00:33:09.360
individual stocks it extends to the president and vice president are you in favor of that
00:33:13.980
well i like it conceptually i don't know about it but i like it conceptually and you know nancy
00:33:19.040
pelosi became rich by having inside information she made a fortune with her husband and i i think
00:33:26.800
that's disgraceful so in that sense i'd like it but i'd have to really see the i'd have you know i
00:33:31.900
studied these things very carefully and this just happened so i'll take a look at it but conceptually
00:33:37.380
i like it and what i do think is nancy pelosi should be investigated because what she has the highest
00:33:44.280
return of anybody practically in the history of wall street save a few uh and uh how did that happen
00:33:53.560
it happened by she knows exactly what's going to happen what's going to be announced she buys stock
00:33:57.680
and then the stock goes up after the announcement's made and she ought to be investigated now jake tapper
00:34:05.000
was talking to nancy pelosi yesterday and here's what happened having uh some sort of investments yeah
00:34:10.700
let me just read what he said i'm sorry that we had some sort of technical issue nancy pelosi became rich
00:34:16.020
i might have to read that we're here to talk about the 60th anniversary of medicaid that's what i
00:34:21.380
agreed to come to talk yeah but i want that means in the election i wanted to give you a chance just
00:34:26.120
to respond he accused you of insider trading what's your response to that that's ridiculous in fact i
00:34:32.720
very much support the stop the the trading of members of congress not that i think anybody's doing
00:34:38.740
anything wrong if they are they are prosecuted and they go to jail but because of the uh confidence
00:34:45.720
incidents stills in the american people don't worry about this uh but i have no uh concern about the
00:34:52.720
obvious uh investments that have been made over time i'm not into it my husband is but it isn't
00:34:59.860
anything to do with anything insider but the president has his own exposure so he's always projecting
00:35:05.700
he's always projecting and let's not give him any more time on that please we're going forward here
00:35:11.920
and i'm very proud of my family and while he might make fun of us while somebody inspired by him
00:35:18.860
breaks into our home and hits my head in a deadly fashion he thinks that's a riot i'd rather not go
00:35:26.500
into some of my other complaints about him right now rather to talk about the 60th anniversary
00:35:31.820
i mean this is this is amazing this is amazing and nancy you should not use the word riot uh in any way
00:35:40.160
you should not use the the word riot like like her husband is the greatest trader in the history of
00:35:48.580
wall street seriously impressive i mean just an amazing investor almost kind of it seems almost
00:35:55.620
clairvoyant yeah in a way yeah um like uh there's a bunch of accounts that follow her trades there's
00:36:02.120
one i can't remember who it is but they do an actual like index like they'll tell you who the trade
00:36:08.440
you can go and buy and like replicate her trades and you're you know way way way ahead of the s&p 500
00:36:14.180
if you're doing that there's this one example though that uh from a few months ago she bought some
00:36:19.220
options uh on uh one ai company uh and was up uh 330 in a month wow no that's impressive
00:36:30.800
that's impressive but uh over and over again she continues to just call these things man she is
00:36:36.280
just no no no her husband does she's she's not even into it she's not even she's not even into it
00:36:40.740
she's not even she doesn't talk about it she doesn't even know about it she doesn't share
00:36:45.080
anything with her husband he is just he's a miracle he's a miracle investor uh so you know you got that
00:36:54.880
going for you it is ridiculous and it's been basically legal uh for these people to do this i don't
00:37:01.960
know why she's denying anything there's nothing illegal about it they they that's the whole point
00:37:08.140
of the bill to make it illegal right to make it illegal uh and to say you know he projects oh my
00:37:15.040
gosh i can't even take it really the debt that the republicans project what they're doing
00:37:21.240
ha that's uh in a way that's her projecting her say her accusing the other side of projecting is
00:37:28.760
her projecting kind of kind of okay um back in just a minute with more let me tell you about
00:37:34.120
american financing ever noticed how nobody brags about their mortgage biggest financial decision
00:37:38.960
people ever make and yet it's treated like an afterthought why well because most mortgages aren't
00:37:44.260
worth bragging about but what if your mortgage was a flex what if you could say yeah i locked in a
00:37:49.200
lower rate i paid off my high interest debt and i saved hundreds of bucks a month all thanks to a
00:37:53.740
simple call that would be pretty good that's what american financing does they're independent not
00:37:59.560
tied to a single bank which means they work for you right now when everything is expensive groceries
00:38:04.420
gas insurance you name it saving anything every month can be a game changer and imagine if we had
00:38:10.760
a non-corrupt federal reserve what those rates might be like anyway american financing can help
00:38:18.840
you get a custom loan a cash out refi even a debt consolidation mortgage and you could close in as
00:38:24.780
little as 10 days so maybe it's time to make your mortgage worth bragging about the smart move is to
00:38:30.440
find what's possible you do have options you just need the right team to show them to you and that team

so uh sydney sweeney american eagle um you know made uh made an ad got a lot of attention
00:41:12.020
uh i guess now dunkin donuts is now into the genetics line in uh their new ad as well here's
00:41:18.980
dunkin donuts look i didn't ask to be the king of summer it just kind of happened this tan
00:41:26.300
genetics i just got my color analysis back guess what golden summer literally
00:41:32.740
i can't help it every time i drink a dunkin golden hour refresher it's like the sun just finds me
00:41:39.440
so sipping these refreshers makes me the king of summer guilty as charged
00:41:49.080
where's this where's this where's this sydney sweeney that was a much better ad
00:41:56.540
in theory it's almost the exact same ad except just a dude
00:42:00.880
no it's really not no no it's really not i just have weird what is a weird dad i don't know what are
00:42:09.540
we supposed to take is that supposed to be i mean is that that's i guess it's a just rip off of her
00:42:15.120
trying to oh is it like a parody type of thing or is it just they just have not it's just a really
00:42:20.880
i mean is it a coincidence that they both are exactly this i mean almost exactly the same and
00:42:28.120
they they talk about jeans i don't know i that's a good question why would they you think that they
00:42:35.860
would i mean it's not an obvious parody so the it would be an odd choice to just like
00:42:41.220
to make maybe it's dunkin donuts so dunkin donuts couldn't afford a really big big idea ad man
00:42:47.960
their ad man's like i don't know here's the night we talk about jeans i mean their ad campaign for
00:42:54.940
about 20 years was a guy saying time to make the donuts it's probably that guy coming up with the
00:43:00.080
ad there's like hey what if we do an ad campaign where we show our employees are miserable
00:43:04.280
what about that what if we we show our employees are abused and they don't get any sleep and we
00:43:11.260
force them in at all hours to make donuts for people who show up see that's weird you see this
00:43:17.000
as you saw that as an employee i always saw that as the owner of dunkin donuts and maybe it's because
00:43:22.260
they grew up in a bakery because that was my dad every day he'd be like i gotta go make donuts
00:43:27.080
they never sleep they never sleep no yeah but you know that it's that's the right thing you know
00:43:34.760
when it comes to capitalism and donuts thank god you can just serve us donuts that's the most important
00:43:40.060
thing i don't care if you sleep or not individuals where are the damn donuts yeah exactly are they
00:43:44.560
fresh and hot now as sydney sweeney is what is that i don't even understand that and so is that
00:43:52.600

00:47:14.960
You know, it's weird, Mark, because we're in, it's like the best of times, the worst of times.
00:47:19.900
Some of the stuff that is happening in the country with Trump is stunning.
00:47:27.140
And then other things that are happening, I'm like, I give up.
00:47:36.760
I just wrote a one sentence that I'm going to post because I've been thinking about this.
00:47:41.960
And I'm posting, shockingly, Jews are safe in only about a dozen countries in 2025.
00:47:47.500
Maybe not even a dozen, maybe a half a dozen, the United States and Israel, of course, but
00:47:55.920
But if you look what's happening in Western Europe today, this is why I've said this October
00:48:03.260
None of those videos are shown on cable or network TV.
00:48:07.380
We watch the Holocaust black and white films, right?
00:48:10.120
And we see the mass graves and we see all the horrors.
00:48:15.460
And yet this was so horrible because the Hamas Palestinians, what they did and opened, and they
00:48:21.900
were so proud of what they were doing to other human beings.
00:48:31.140
And you won't see it on TV and you won't see it on radio, excuse me, and you won't see
00:48:42.060
I tried to convince the Israelis, release this.
00:48:44.540
Because I saw it in a closed session, you know, because it's so disturbing.
00:48:50.080
And they're like, no, no, no, we don't want to.
00:48:56.200
But I've gone to, I won't mention, different networks.
00:49:10.460
You know, when I was at CNN and Fox, they both had a deal.
00:49:17.260
But you could not play the World Trade Center footage without special permission.
00:49:29.100
But other than that, you needed special permission.
00:49:51.120
I was in bed like two and a half months from this injury I had on my leg staring at the ceiling.
00:49:56.940
So I was thinking about history and revolution and stuff.
00:50:00.460
And I got to think, you know, we're discussing this stuff despite all your books and mine and all our talk about these things, which are very important.
00:50:10.260
I'm saying I got to thinking, really, what was the Revolutionary War about?
00:50:15.680
It was about power, which kind of government we're going to have, whether we're going to have representative government, taxation without representation.
00:50:22.420
In fact, what is the battle today about with the Marxists and the Islamists versus we, the Americans?
00:50:33.540
And I feel if we get this straight and we start to talk about it more, ideas do matter.
00:50:45.060
So my listeners, your listeners, our audiences explain how America was founded.
00:50:49.960
America was founded completely differently than any country on the face of the earth.
00:50:58.380
So I break it down into negative power and positive power.
00:51:01.460
Look, positive power, if you look at the Declaration and actually understand it as you do, as most of our audience does, you understand positive power is the belief in the Judeo-Christian value system fused with the Enlightenment.
00:51:27.060
God is mentioned in different ways four times in the Declaration.
00:51:34.900
And a good damn thing it was, because that's why it's such a fantastic country that doesn't believe in all this centralized power in the hand of a few demigods.
00:51:43.140
And so when it's fused with the Enlightenment, where Montesquieu and others talked about power checking power, that's key.
00:51:50.900
When you listen to the Bernie Sanders, when you listen to what I call the American Marxists, they're about the accumulation of power.
00:52:12.860
It's about killing other Muslims who don't agree with the 7th century barbarians who've never gone through the Reformation, who reject the Enlightenment, and who view anybody that's in their way must be destroyed.
00:52:24.840
But as for the means, the Marxists and the Islamists, their goal right now is to overthrow the West, and we see it in our country.
00:52:32.840
And look, they've basically succeeded in Europe.
00:52:35.120
Europe is now basically an Islamist front, and that's why, for instance, they're all getting together now.
00:52:51.600
I keep saying, I want to interview this great peacemaker.
00:52:57.800
And I explain over and over again, Jews today are safe in a handful of countries, and that's it.
00:53:07.480
And it's pretty frightening because the people who hate the Jews hate the evangelical Christians.
00:53:16.240
One of the groups I work with, Christians United for Israel, they are stunned at the attacks that they are.
00:53:21.600
They are taking as an organization, as evangelical Christians.
00:53:25.480
How many Christians are left in the Middle East?
00:53:34.620
Christians being slaughtered in Africa, in Nigeria, in the Congo, in the Sudan.
00:53:38.920
How come nobody's holding any meetings about that?
00:53:42.580
China's wiping out the Christians as well as the Uyghurs and the Tibetans.
00:53:47.980
And in the West, if you want to stand up for Christianity and your faith against Islamism and the Palestinians, you're going to jail.
00:53:56.900
So these faiths, which undergird our society, the freest society, the greatest society ever formed by mankind,
00:54:04.900
they're under attack, as is the Enlightenment and the belief system and limited government.
00:54:11.380
Can you explain how we have gone so rapidly down this dark path of Marxism and hand-in-hand with real anti-Semitism?
00:54:31.280
I mean, you know, it's one thing to be and say, I don't want to fight and I don't want to be involved in anybody's war and I want to hold everybody responsible.
00:54:39.220
But I don't hear the same people coming after Israel, coming after Russia and saying, where's the aid for the people in Russia?
00:54:49.740
Ukraine, it's striking to me and it's something I talked about.
00:54:55.980
You know, the ADL said about me, you know, 10, 15 years ago that I was an anti-Semite for saying that this kind of stuff was coming because it always comes with Marxism.
00:55:04.880
But even I'm stunned at how deep it is running now in our country.
00:55:09.480
It's deep because it's revolution by immigration, including in parts of our country.
00:55:15.240
The Islamic scholars, oh, 40, 50 years ago, talked about the need for Islamists to conquer the world through immigration because the West is weak.
00:55:26.580
And you see what's happened to our country took four years.
00:55:33.440
You know, the head rabbi in France told the Jews to get out, that there's no way to survive here.
00:55:42.160
Many of the major cities and medium-sized cities in London, even though Muslims are about 15, 20 percent of the population, which is astounding when you think about it.
00:55:52.820
And again, I'm not talking about Muslims who have gone through Reformation, the Zutty Jassers and so forth.
00:56:02.440
It doesn't take a majority of a faith or majority of a people.
00:56:11.700
All these revolutions, Mao, Lenin and all, these weren't the majorities overthrowing their society.
00:56:17.200
They were minorities overthrowing their societies.
00:56:28.300
Marxism was exported to the United States out of Germany.
00:56:31.040
Islamism has been exported to the United States out of the Middle East.
00:56:42.300
They're not at war with the government, per se.
00:56:48.060
That's what they mean by fundamental transformation.
00:56:54.380
Again, I divide it into positive and negative power.
00:57:07.340
And again, people don't have to have any faith.
00:57:09.240
But you can thank the good Lord that we had the founders that we did, that created the nation that we did.
00:57:17.360
The Bernie Sanders and his ilk, they never talk about the Declaration.
00:57:30.540
It's impossible to have the commune and so forth.
00:57:47.220
One of the greatest constitutions ever written was Stalin's 1936 constitution.
00:57:58.740
Same thing with this mandami about affordability and their language and what they use.
00:58:03.980
Wokeism is a way to control thought and control language.
00:58:11.700
Marx writes about that in the Communist Manifesto.
00:58:20.400
So the Marxists can step in or the Islamists can step in.
00:58:24.520
I know people will say, well, Islam and Marxism, you know, Marxism says no God.
00:58:32.080
The point is Islam is about conformity and control and manipulation, the radical Islam, just like the Marxists.
00:58:41.160
And until one of them is fighting just the other one.
00:58:47.220
You know, I just spoke to Alan Dershowitz about his book called The Preventive State, and I don't agree with Alan Dershowitz on a lot of things.
00:58:58.920
He doesn't make any conclusions, and it doesn't say which is the right way to go.
00:59:05.220
We are going to become more and more of a larger state saying, oh, we've got to protect.
00:59:17.140
Is this, you know, we should be asking these things now.
00:59:28.000
And your book is saying, here's what you actually want and why.
00:59:35.520
And what I do with this word power, I mean, think about this word power.
00:59:49.240
I don't get into psychology and families and social arrangements and all.
00:59:58.260
And the same applies when you're talking about government.
01:00:02.080
Government is an entity in which people manage themselves.
01:00:10.660
And what I'm saying, and I don't know what Alan has written, but what I'm saying is we're in a very bad trajectory.
01:00:16.800
We have a little respite right now with a very historic and iconic president.
01:00:23.580
And I don't know that the Republicans comprehend what you and I are talking about either.
01:00:29.320
When the Democrats come in, they make permanent changes.
01:00:36.220
I know we've got to cut you loose, but thank you for spending time with us today, and good luck with the book.
01:01:08.500
There is a moment, just as you're slipping into bed, when you realize you made a pretty good decision.
01:01:12.860
You pull the sheets around you and you feel that gentle, cool, breathable comfort that wraps around your body and whispers,
01:01:21.100
That's what Cozy Earth delivers night after night, a sleep experience so luxurious that it feels like you traded your mattress
01:01:28.440
for a five-star suite without leaving the house.
01:01:31.100
Their sheets are made from a fabric that breathes incredibly well, temperatures are regulated naturally,
01:01:37.960
and it manages to stay cool and smooth to the touch throughout the entire night, even in the sweltering heat of the summer.
01:01:44.400
Once you feel them for yourself, you're going to know why I love them, why Tanya loves them.
01:01:48.540
Sleep is not just a function, it is a foundation.
01:01:50.820
And if you want to start every day strong, you need to end every night with comfort.
01:01:55.720

01:02:30.560
You know, in the special that I did last night, the Wednesday night special, it was all about,
01:02:35.580
I just looked up and look who's on TV on MSNBC.
01:02:40.980
I can't believe these guys are still interviewing these criminals and still believing them.
01:02:50.300
Anyway, I did this show on TV last night about the cabal.
01:03:00.380
I mean, we are seeing in real time, literally seeing right now, and you can point your finger to it and prove it,
01:03:06.500
that that chalkboard I gave so many years ago that, you know, I was like, I will put it on my tombstone if I have to.
01:03:14.820
And I said, communists, Islamists, socialists, and anarchists will work together to destabilize the world,
01:03:22.420
the Middle East and Europe, and then it'll spread over here and destabilize America and destroy the Western world.
01:03:33.260
And it seems as though the entire West is asleep.
01:03:38.260
It seems as though the entire West really just, how many people do you talk to that are not,
01:03:46.640
who are not firmly in your boat, you know what I mean, actually talk about that stuff?
01:03:53.020
Or when you do talk it to them, they, you know, they just shrug it off, roll their eyes.
01:04:00.800
And you're like, are you not seeing what's happening?
01:04:04.280
Have you not noticed the slow boil that we're now experiencing?
01:04:14.060
This is legitimately like what it's like to go to a barbecue with Glenn Beck.
01:04:17.860
Like, that's the conversation you have with him.
01:04:19.860
So you're like, hey, there's a reason I don't have a lot of friends.
01:04:39.460
It's tough because we just talked about this, I think, yesterday and saying that, like,
01:04:44.100
a lot of it feels like you can't do anything about it.
01:04:46.300
I feel like there's more and more of my friends that I'm talking about that are tuning out from the second-to-second, moment-to-moment.
01:04:58.400
You know, that's what we just had Tulsi on about an hour ago.
01:05:01.720
And I said to her, you know, it was great to have all this stuff, but I don't believe in this stuff anymore.
01:05:09.820
When somebody is brought up and stands in front of a judge and you make an actual case, whether they're proven or found guilty or not,
01:05:21.160
I just want to see people stand and be held accountable.
01:05:25.960
And when I see that, maybe I'll have some faith in the system again.
01:05:31.180
And so it's like, you have to pay attention to what's going on, but it's really hard to care.
01:05:38.320
But beyond the corruption stuff, how do you not see society crumbling?
01:05:49.100
We have to talk about that, the beating in Cincinnati.
01:05:54.860
But have you seen the latest on what the city councilwoman said and the reaction to that?
01:06:02.800
No, but I'll take the burger medium rare if you would.
01:06:13.480
There is a difference between getting older and giving up because of it.
01:06:19.960
When pain becomes a daily companion, when it's interrupting your sleep, when it's limiting your movement or just chipping away at your mood, that's not aging.
01:06:30.780
And thankfully, there's a solution worth trying.
01:06:33.420
Relief Factor is a daily supplement designed to target the root causes of pain, inflammation from aging, exercise, everyday living.
01:06:43.620
It's developed by doctors, taken by hundreds of thousands of people every single day, including me.
01:06:48.420
And the part I love, it's not one of those lifetime commitment things.
01:06:53.600
You try it for three weeks, the quick start package.
01:06:56.380
If it doesn't work for you, don't keep taking it.
01:07:02.420
And that's another thing I love about Relief Factor is they tell you.
01:07:07.020
If you're not moving easier within three weeks, you probably won't.
01:07:11.840
That's why they give you the three-week quick start for $19.95.
01:07:28.460
Get every story we talk about every day and every story Glenn talks about at the barbecue at the free email newsletter.
01:07:50.760
Imagine a barbecue conversation with Glenn Beck and Mike Lee.
01:08:01.840
Never apparently on the air, but he's with us now.
01:08:11.760
I'm going to try not even to be boring a little.
01:08:13.520
Yeah, no, it's always great when people are trying to be funny, too.
01:08:23.240
I am so upset with the Senate, so upset with these Republicans.
01:08:28.920
How many senators, I mean, how many nominations are sitting on the sidelines that for some reason our side doesn't want to confirm for the president?
01:08:39.920
Well, the confirmation backlog is at about 150.
01:08:47.920
We added six just from two of the committees I served on yesterday alone.
01:08:53.340
So we're somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 right now.
01:08:57.220
Now, technically speaking, it's not necessarily Republicans don't want to confirm them.
01:09:00.880
It's just that the Democrats are slowing down the process, and Republicans, as Republican senators, we now have to decide what we're going to do about it.
01:09:15.980
Washington's not fun this time of year, and historically, the Senate has recessed at this time of year.
01:09:22.860
But, you know, sometimes you've got to do the job that you signed up for.
01:09:26.580
And so we can complain all we want about the fact that Senate Democrats have delayed the process.
01:09:32.060
That's kind of become the job of the opposition party these days in the Senate.
01:09:36.400
But once they delay and obstruct, it's on us if we don't clear the deck.
01:09:43.480
And the way we clear the deck, the only way to clear the deck is through the tool that we call exhaustion.
01:09:50.100
You make them vote, including and especially at times that they find inconvenient or undesirable.
01:09:57.120
So we need we need Republican senators to start saying en masse, we will say we insist on staying to get these nominees voted on.
01:10:10.900
It probably won't take that long because people tend to all of a sudden become far more willing to negotiate and compromise when something that they want is on the line, especially when what they want is to get out of dodge.
01:10:23.520
Before we go back into politics, tell me who is being held up.
01:10:28.020
Tell me the consequence of holding these these nominees up.
01:10:32.480
Well, look, many months ago, we got the cabinet confirmed.
01:10:35.680
And so most of these names are not in super prominent positions that every American is going to be aware of.
01:10:42.460
These are a combination that small handful of them are judges, although we're really just getting started on the judges.
01:10:53.520
People represented the United States interests abroad as the president's personal representative and their personal representative of the U.S. government.
01:11:01.640
They are undersecretaries, assistant secretaries, division directors within various departments of the U.S. government.
01:11:11.120
Even though most of these departments aren't that important to most Americans' daily lives, at least insofar as they think about them from day to day, what happens is that with these lower level positions is where a lot of the work gets done.
01:11:24.540
And when you don't have a Senate-confirmed political appointee put in place by the president, confirmed by the Senate, guess who runs those departments, those divisions, those agencies?
01:11:40.100
The deep state bureaucratic apparatus, the regulators, the career civil servant workers who basically can't get fired, they lean overwhelmingly left.
01:11:51.480
And that is an understatement, if ever there were one.
01:11:55.000
So this is much different than it would be if Democrats were slowed down by Republicans and they couldn't get all of their nominees through.
01:12:03.040
Because the default is, it's okay, Democrats are still in charge because they run the deep state apparatus.
01:12:09.560
We flip, effectively, control of the U.S. government, a huge swath of it, from Republican control, which Americans voted for in November, over to Democrats.
01:12:21.940
Every day, we refuse or decline or fail to do the work necessary to confirm these people into their jobs.
01:12:30.900
He's, from what I've seen, in favor of holding people.
01:12:36.340
Yeah, yeah, I'm always cautious about talking for a colleague, especially the Senate Majority Leader in public.
01:12:42.020
But every conversation I've had with him and every conversation I've had heard him have in public and in private has been that he's in favor of doing it.
01:12:50.540
Now, the concern is, and the concern that he and others have expressed is, yeah, but what happens if our people don't show up?
01:12:56.720
Because apparently some Republican senators have gone to him and others saying, I won't be there if you have votes in August.
01:13:03.380
Now, these people aren't identifying themselves.
01:13:09.100
Maybe some of them have some dire emergency that they've got to attend to.
01:13:14.440
I really don't know because they haven't identified themselves to me or to the public, as far as I'm aware.
01:13:21.320
Out of 50 people, I'd give that excuse to maybe one of them.
01:13:30.340
And if you've got a dire emergency, we actually have kind of a protocol for dealing with that sort of thing, either a dire emergency or you've got something like, I don't know, an immediate family member has died.
01:13:44.160
Some immediate family member is getting married.
01:13:47.100
The longstanding practice in the Senate, when you're in that circumstance, very often you can go and find somebody across the aisle, a member of the other party, and say, hey, I'm going to bind.
01:13:59.480
I'm having a lobotomy tomorrow or a wishful thing.
01:14:06.180
Would you be willing to pair your absence with mine?
01:14:09.360
And more often than not, you can find somebody who's willing to do that.
01:14:13.260
So that's my point is that, you know, other than a few things like that, which can be dealt with through paired absence arrangements.
01:14:20.260
Sure, other people may have travel plans, other things they would rather do, international travel or travel around the country, around their state, whatever it is.
01:14:29.780
But those things can change and they can be delayed.
01:14:36.280
Because, Glenn, if we leave, if we leave, if we recess as has long been planned, you know, by tomorrow, if we recess for the entire month of August, we'll come back.
01:14:50.040
We're adding to that backlog at a rate of, I don't know, 10 or 15 new nominees per week as more nominees get moved out.
01:14:58.360
If we were just to have these, if these were the only people we had to confirm, it would still take us until probably late April of 2026 just to get this current slate confirmed.
01:15:09.680
But by then, Glenn, we'll have another 200 or so that we've got to confirm.
01:15:13.060
That eats into our ability to do everything, to confirm others, to confirm judges, of which there will be a lot more in the coming months, and even to get our legislative work done, because then we're stuck on these executive nomination votes.
01:15:25.940
That's why the time to clear the backlog is now.
01:15:34.820
There are a number of them who are U.S. attorneys.
01:15:40.180
I wish I had the breakdown of exactly how many fall into which category.
01:15:43.500
But we've got a bunch of U.S. attorneys who were in this group, and U.S. attorneys play a very important role.
01:15:50.360
I have to tell you, Mike, I just had Tulsi on about an hour ago, and I said to her, you know, the people in Washington understand the crisis of confidence the American people have in our government and in justice.
01:16:05.500
I mean, I've never felt it like this, Mike, and I don't know if you guys feel it this way as much in, you know, in Washington.
01:16:12.420
But you need to, your colleagues need to understand they are at the end here of trust.
01:16:20.680
There's, you know, all this stuff that's coming out, oh, this committee just found this, and hey, there's these new documents out that show this.
01:16:39.680
If we don't have U.S. attorneys and they haven't been confirmed, you can't get anything done in the justice field.
01:16:50.720
And this is happening at exactly the same time when a lot of these interim U.S. attorneys are timing out.
01:16:57.220
They're allowed to serve in that temporary capacity for a limited period of time.
01:17:01.280
And under a stupid law, an act of decades ago that I have a bill to repeal, they have federal judges in each district who can decide who will replace the interim U.S. attorney at that point.
01:17:14.360
That's a barbaric and unconstitutional practice if ever there were one.
01:17:17.600
Judicial personnel naming executive personnel, that's wrong.
01:17:22.220
Glenn, and I've talked to the president repeatedly about this, including less than 24 hours ago, presidents and Glenn to agree with me, as indicated by, among other things, the post on social media he made over the weekend saying, get this done.
01:17:43.320
And it is not appropriate for us to deprive them of that.
01:17:49.020
And make no mistake, Glenn, if we leave and leave this backlog undone, there will be consequences.
01:17:59.140
But when the Democrats delay, as is the prerogative of the opposition party these days, it's just what happens in the Senate.
01:18:06.580
But if they delay and we do nothing to make them pony up for it and show up and vote and do the work to eat the consequences of their delay, this is on us.
01:18:19.680
Who are the people that we can nicely call to encourage that are on our side that might be open to fighting a little harder to get everybody to stay?
01:18:36.580
You know, I don't want to call and be negative because I don't think that works.
01:18:41.600
But, you know, when people call and say, hey, you know, I know you're on the right side on this.
01:18:50.860
Because there's millions of us out here that want this done.
01:19:03.700
And here's what I would suggest in this circumstance.
01:19:08.700
If you live in a state where you're represented by a Republican senator, maybe even if you're not, but you think somebody might listen to you, call the office, email the office, probably call the office of those Republican senators and encourage them to do it.
01:19:24.440
Say, I'd really appreciate it if you stayed and cleared the backlog.
01:19:27.680
We appreciate the other good things that you've done.
01:19:32.740
And we're confident that you can clear the backlog.
01:19:36.460
I think that's very helpful because there's not one of those 53 Republican senators who couldn't benefit from that.
01:19:50.480
Thanks for how hard you're working and standing for the Constitution.
01:19:53.380
Even though you wanted to put a McDonald's and some sort of coal-fired energy plant in right smack on top of our national parks.
01:20:05.780
Well, yeah, and don't forget about the grilling rig and the nuclear reactor.
01:20:11.900
But that was only in Yellowstone, if I remember.
01:20:32.060
We cannot get justice without the U.S. attorneys.
01:20:46.880
Otherwise, the president doesn't have anybody to investigate, anybody to put the cases together to be able to prosecute them.
01:21:10.840
When was the last time you took a deliberate look at your finances?
01:21:13.820
Not because of an emergency or a mispayment, but because you were ready to take control of your life.
01:21:19.120
You know, the decisions that you've made before that have been controlling.
01:21:25.840
In today's world, most of us are moving too fast to catch our breath.
01:21:31.980
Interest rates pile up quietly in the background.
01:21:34.300
And credit cards stay near the limits because prices never stop climbing.
01:21:38.140
But you don't need to upend your entire life to start improving it.
01:21:41.400
Sometimes all it takes is one smart, timely decision, like calling the right team for help.
01:21:50.180
They're a family-owned mortgage company that listens first, tailors a plan to fit your real life,
01:21:55.780
and shows you exactly what you can do to lower your payments, reduce your interest,
01:22:02.280
Whether you're looking to refi, pay off debt, or simply breathe a little easier every month,
01:22:07.600
their U.S.-based team will talk you through all of the options without wasting your time.
01:22:25.180

01:23:12.060
Here's CNN talking about the economic improvement.
01:23:20.400
New numbers show a sharp turnaround after a worrisome first quarter.
01:23:24.740
How big of an improvement is this new report for the U.S. economy?
01:23:28.560
Well, Wolf, the headline here is a positive one, right?
01:23:41.520
This marks a major improvement from the first quarter when we saw a rare contraction.
01:23:54.160
I mean, China at its height, I think, was at nine percent, eight percent.
01:24:02.480
But three percent growth is a solid number for a quarter.
01:24:12.080
We're going to know more as we get past some of these tariffs and as they really start to come in.
01:24:23.240
You know, it does seem like there's rumors of some of them maybe not going into a longer period of delay.
01:24:31.480
And then next week, yay, next week is his now 10-day deadline for Putin and coming to the table.
01:24:52.560
I mean, I would have a heart attack if I was him.
01:24:55.700
I mean, it's just all high stakes all the time.
01:25:33.860
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
01:26:07.660
What is happening in Cincinnati is beyond reason.
01:26:11.580
And I know we talked about this earlier this week,
01:26:19.260
in regards to what the police chief of Cincinnati said earlier this week
01:26:27.140
and then responding to something that Victoria Parks from the city council said.
01:26:34.040
And I want to address this but also give you some perspective on it in 60 seconds.
01:26:41.080
First, where do things go from here for Israel?
01:26:44.640
It's hard to say. The headlines change by the hour.
01:26:46.680
Sometimes there's hope a ceasefire is going to continue and peace is getting closer.
01:26:51.060
And sometimes there's a fresh wave of attacks and peace has never seemed further away.
01:26:55.100
But sometimes it feels like the whole region is just hanging by a thread.
01:27:01.740
But whatever comes next, the one thing that you can count on
01:27:04.760
is that the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews will be there helping.
01:27:11.700
They're already on the ground delivering food to the hungry,
01:27:20.840
When others are looking away, that's when the fellowship leans in.
01:27:26.360
helping Holocaust survivors and orphans and refugees,
01:27:29.860
the elderly and entire communities under threat.
01:27:32.620
And their mission doesn't depend on the political climate.
01:27:44.100
Learn more about IFCJ and their life-saving work by going online to ifcj.org.
01:27:57.500
but did you see the full footage of the beatdown in Cincinnati?
01:28:08.380
That's what I was told by the police commissioner.
01:28:13.780
the clips you're worth showing now here on Blaze TV is what I saw.
01:28:23.780
Now, what the police commissioner was saying is that,
01:28:46.920
I want to put in jail the guy who is just going,
01:29:09.260
And the one guy who's taken all the videos is like,
01:29:43.700
And it takes a white woman to come up and cradle her head.
01:29:51.280
Then everybody's like, oh, boy, this could be murder.
01:30:14.600
Now, what could you possibly do to deserve that?
01:30:22.920
What is even the argument of the police commissioner?
01:30:26.460
The police commissioner said that you don't know the whole truth.
01:30:36.640
Well, I want to know, because there was plenty of videotape.
01:30:49.380
But, you know, maybe you can balance out and go, yeah, this guy was a neo-Nazi saying, I'm going to round you all up and I'm going to kill you all or whatever.
01:30:57.520
And then you can maybe see, okay, well, I mean, he, you know, he was asking for a punch in the face.
01:31:07.240
There's no justification for, you know, continually beating a person who's on the ground, even if you really don't like them.
01:31:15.440
Unless, you know, I mean, I can't think of anything unless it was like you were almost murdered yourself.
01:31:27.120
Assaulting my child would probably put me into a blind rage.
01:31:31.340
But like, so maybe there's something like that.
01:31:34.900
But I still, that doesn't justify that behavior.
01:31:37.660
So now the Cincinnati city council member, Victoria Parks, she said the whites, quote, begged for a beatdown.
01:31:58.060
She said she saw some additional footage that puts the crowd in, quote, some context.
01:32:11.580
You know, I am so sick and tired of these politicians just saying things and then not having to prove anything.
01:32:25.940
Well, tell us what the secret information is, Adam.
01:32:36.660
This is what the people who were in the room with him.
01:32:49.060
The police chief and this city council member should be impeached.
01:33:08.480
Not in Cincinnati because this has been going on forever.
01:33:12.460
This kind of white hatred is being pushed in Cincinnati and all over the country.
01:33:24.740
And, you know, I again, I'm right back where I was yesterday.
01:33:31.120
You know, when you when you look at these stories and you see these elected officials excusing violence when truth is twisted into some sort of ideology and justice seems, you know, just as optional as depending on your skin color or your political views.
01:33:51.760
Then what you're witnessing is not a civil society.
01:33:59.200
You can't watch that video and show and tell me we're living in a civil society, especially when everybody's just going, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:34:09.880
That's not that's that's an that's those are animals.
01:34:17.540
I don't know what it is, but it is the the unraveling of the American society and promise.
01:34:33.860
Why pay attention if justice isn't going to be served?
01:34:39.960
Why even speak the truth when no one seems to care to even hear it?
01:34:47.920
Why fight the people in charge if they're not going to be punished or do anything about it anyway?
01:35:01.920
When you no longer trust that the government is going to do anything except create more problems, you become vigilantes.
01:35:18.600
We don't measure justice by how often it wins in the news cycle.
01:35:28.120
We measure we measure it by how faithfully it aligns with eternal truths.
01:35:35.760
You know, if you know anything at all about history, it will tell you over and over again injustice has its day.
01:35:44.640
And it seems more than a week or a month, it'll have its decades.
01:35:57.780
Soviet Moscow buried it, tortured it, slaughtered it.
01:36:03.540
Mao's China stoned it, burned it, and yet truth still survived.
01:36:13.300
It's still being stoned to death and tortured to death and just shot in the back of the head in China.
01:36:25.600
It's just that China's not really ready for it.
01:36:28.440
But somewhere, someone has refused to forget what is true.
01:36:39.500
This is why they said, we pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.
01:36:43.560
Not for some immediate reward, but because they knew that justice was not cheap.
01:36:49.640
They believed in a higher law, a law above men.
01:36:55.800
And I got to tell you, it is so hard as a man to say, well, in the end, they will lose.
01:37:11.740
My gosh, think about the slaves in the field for 200 years.
01:37:22.120
Think about the people who are currently in slavery all around the world.
01:37:32.820
Someday, the bad guys will lose, and justice will be served.
01:37:46.800
We have to remember what our founders knew and tried to remind us.
01:37:59.380
Every single generation has to renew this promise.
01:38:03.720
That's why I've been saying this lately this week, that it's time for our generation, and
01:38:17.380
Nancy Pelosi, when are you ever going to let go of the power?
01:38:27.060
You have served and fattened your own wallets, your own life, your own power for so long,
01:38:36.840
You have destroyed our economic ability for our children to be free, to own a house, to
01:38:43.960
have a job where they can buy things, they can live a decent life, have a vacation from
01:38:50.200
These are things that every generation has to decide and fight for.
01:38:57.040
So, we can't look at a story like this and say there's no justice.
01:39:03.380
I suggest that maybe we start looking at stories like this, and we start to say, this is where
01:39:15.420
And even if the world doesn't change, I know where my lines are.
01:39:31.540
I'm not going any farther down this mad show that the world is putting on right now.
01:39:36.920
I'm not going over the cliff with the rest of humanity.
01:39:39.360
This is where the American people that still believe in right and wrong, this is when we
01:39:45.240
stand up and say directly to the liars and the ideologues and the demagogues, you may
01:39:52.020
sit in City Hall, you may sit in Washington, you may think you hold the power, but you
01:40:00.960
I know who I answer to, and you do not speak for me.
01:40:17.720
The longer we wait to draw this line, the higher the cost will be.
01:40:26.800
How many times have you bit your tongue in your relationship?
01:40:30.680
How many times have you bit your tongue at work?
01:40:34.040
You know something's not right, but you bite your tongue.
01:40:40.740
Yes, it's going to cost you, but it's not worth speaking up all the times.
01:40:46.420
I don't say to my wife, yeah, you know, that dress doesn't make you look fat.
01:40:52.180
Now, she says that to me, but I wouldn't say that to her.
01:40:55.220
You don't always say things, but when it matters, and you know what?
01:41:08.040
Truth always costs more in the beginning than in the end, and the silence is what makes tyranny cheap.
01:41:17.200
I have this week been expressing to you that there's things I don't believe in anymore, and I'm trying to hold on, and I do.
01:41:33.180
I shouldn't say, I don't know how to express this yet.
01:41:40.120
I just don't think it exists right now, but I believe it will return.
01:41:45.200
And it may not be in my lifetime, but somewhere, somebody will remember it, and they will not, they'll say, we draw the line.
01:41:54.360
I'm not tolerating this anymore, and they will live their own life based on eternal principles.
01:42:03.480
Hopefully, more of us begin to do that in our own life, and that's when things change.
01:42:07.740
But if you really want hope, real, tangible hope, don't look for it in Washington.
01:42:20.160
Don't wait for it to come from Hollywood or some billionaire's social media feed.
01:42:28.900
Hope is built in the hearts of men and women who refuse to bow to lies.
01:42:34.120
Hope is built when a father teaches his son that no one, no matter their color, no one is above the law.
01:42:43.000
Hope is built when a mom refuses to let her daughter believe that violence is ever justice.
01:42:48.360
Hope is built every time someone speaks the truth in the face of chaos.
01:42:52.300
The world has gone mad before, but madness is not eternal.
01:43:18.520
There are certain things in life that we shouldn't take for granted, like tucking your loved ones into bed and knowing they're safe.
01:43:25.680
A husband who never made it back from deployment.
01:43:30.760
A first responder who raced into a building while others were running out.
01:43:34.980
We all say the words, never forget, and most times we do.
01:43:40.200
We say their sacrifice matters, but are we doing anything about it?
01:43:45.700
Well, a lot of people in this audience, and most likely you are, thanks to Tunnel to Towers, that promise isn't just something we say.
01:43:53.860
So, you know, when a hero falls in the line of duty, Tunnel to Towers steps in to pay off their mortgage in the family home because they believe that the family has given enough, you know, for the veteran who returns home catastrophically wounded, men and women who gave everything but their last breath.
01:44:09.260
Tunnel to Towers says, you know, they've given enough.
01:44:12.380
Builds them smart homes, especially adapted to meet their needs and restore the sense of freedom and dignity to their lives.
01:44:22.620
Never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes and do something about it.
01:44:28.040
Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers, will you?
01:45:02.520
Did you see that there was an orange shape spotted on the surveillance footage near Jeffrey Epstein's prison cell on the final night of his life?
01:45:21.160
And it's seen at the video that was reviewed by CBS News.
01:45:26.920
And it moves up the stairs to Epstein's cell block around 10.40 p.m.
01:45:48.040
Now, this is the, let me see, this is the final night of his life, okay?
01:45:57.040
And they're questioning, is there an explanation for this orange shape?
01:46:05.100
And I'm just hoping we get to rope UFOs into the Epstein file.
01:46:15.460
If we could just get one grand universal conspiracy theory, it would be so great.
01:46:22.340
And then they'll come out and be like, oh, come on, that was old news.
01:46:36.460
Your kitchen where, you know, you made breakfast for your kids every single morning.
01:46:41.200
There's a married couple walking through it right now, pointing at the island in the middle,
01:46:45.000
talking about whether it's just too big or just right.
01:46:47.380
Your living room, or you, you know, you and your wife curled up on that old couch at the
01:46:52.180
end of so many long days, watch movies together.
01:46:58.540
You know, look, that's the nature of selling a house.
01:47:23.040
And you put the spaghetti sauce in this pitcher.
01:47:25.180
And I'm like, we're not getting rid of this pitcher because I think of the kids every time.
01:47:34.020
And when you do, you need a real estate agent that you can really trust to get the job done right.
01:47:55.220
It's every story we talk about every day for free.
01:48:31.940
She spoke about her candidacy as the gubernatorial candidate in California.
01:48:45.000
So, did she say, upon some deep reflection, for now, my leadership and public service will
01:48:57.000
Over the past few months, I've spent time reflecting on this moment in our nation's history and the
01:49:02.360
best way for me to continue fighting for the American people and advancing the values and
01:49:20.500
When we talk about leadership and being a leader who leads, we must understand that leadership is not always about the office you're elected to, but sometimes about the space that is not elected yet still leadership.
01:49:32.580
And at this moment, which is a moment that comes after many other moments, I've been reflecting deeply, intentionally, profoundly on what it means to reflect, as one does during reflection.
01:49:45.380
And through that reflecting, I've come to understand that while I may not currently be in elected office, I'm still very much in a place of public service, which is service to the public, for the people who are the American people, which is who we are.
01:49:58.960
So, I'll continue to do the work, because the work must be done, and that work is working for the ideals and values that are ideal and have value.
01:50:07.900
And those are the things that I hold and that I hold dear, because if we don't hold them dear, how can we say they are dear to be held?
01:50:27.680
One is obviously me, and the other one is a press agent, because there is absolutely no way she said the first one.
01:50:40.880
I thought when you were reading it, I was like, gosh, I don't know.
01:50:46.860
For now, my leadership of public service will not be in elected office for over the six months I've spent time reflecting on this moment.
01:50:53.200
So I was, that one, I was like, okay, that sounds like her.
01:51:01.920
But if she would have said it, if she would have said it on stage, that's exactly what she would have said.
01:51:08.140
If someone just randomly walked up to her and asked her, that's about what she'd come up with.
01:51:23.740
Would you rather have your governor be Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsom?
01:51:30.860
Gavin Newsom or Kamala Harris as your governor has to be one of them.
01:51:37.140
So this is like, suicide by being shot or suicide by electrocuting yourself.
01:51:50.960
I think I would pick Kamala because I feel like while both are awful and both want terrible policies to be passed and enforced,
01:52:10.640
Like it would be a joke and it wouldn't, things wouldn't go well.
01:52:21.740
I wouldn't want Patrick Bateman in American Psycho running my state.
01:52:44.160
How conspiracy theories about COVID's origins are hampering our ability to prevent the next pandemic?
01:52:54.600
How conspiracy theories about COVID's origins are hampering our ability to prevent the next pandemic?
01:53:16.840
The way this game is going, I should say, I'd be surprised if it's even been written yet.
01:53:25.120
But I mean, if you're going to say logically, 2021, 2022.
01:53:35.480
There's a lot of conspiracy theories about origin at the very beginning.
01:53:54.540
All intelligence agencies say it came from Wuhan.
01:54:07.820
It is how conspiracy theories about COVID's origins are hampering our ability to prevent
01:54:12.740
One of the authors, by the way, well, a couple of authors of note, I would say.
01:54:16.740
One is Christian Anderson, who is in the emails from 2020, talking about.
01:54:22.320
Oh, he was a, wasn't he the guy who was like, hey, I think this has.
01:54:26.180
He was one of the guys saying like, hey, this could be lab leak.
01:54:34.280
Another guy is Andrew Rambo, who is not like, you know, Sylvester Stallone Rambo.
01:54:41.820
Oh, he's, he's like a friend, R-A-M-B-A-U-T, like the Renault.
01:54:49.760
He is like the one, I am up in the woods, living in the cave.
01:55:09.740
The super exciting, like dramatic scene that they build to is him just putting down all
01:55:28.640
You're nuts if you believe the lab leak theory.
01:55:34.620
Also today in the New York Times is a op-ed from, is it Brennan and Clapper?
01:55:41.980
Who are saying, this is just the weaponization of government.
01:55:49.800
They don't like the weaponization of government, eh?
01:56:09.100
Yesterday, Donald Trump was talking about maybe giving a pardon to Diddy because he
01:56:21.360
Was he actually talking about that or was it just rumored?
01:56:24.120
It does feel like when you get a Donald Trump pardoning rumor.
01:56:31.800
Usually, like, it does feel like a lot of times it happens.
01:56:35.780
But a rumor is that he's going to be, because he was arrested on the Mann Act.
01:56:40.720
Now, if you don't know the Mann Act, if you're my age, you say, I don't, I don't, I don't,
01:56:52.200
From a very famous scene from that documentary called Smokey and the Bandit.
01:57:16.480
Bank robber that's baby **** alongside of what this dude is doing.
01:57:27.160
Driving through people's back yard, knocking down mailboxes, got a broad in the car, took
01:57:36.980
I don't think he's got a permission, and that's good nothing.
01:57:48.360
No, no, you're an officer of the law, I'd be on it.
01:58:18.640
Oh my gosh, it's worth watching with your kids.
01:58:43.400
And the Mann Act was taking someone across state lines.
01:58:52.160
The law is like, you can do whatever you want inside a state, but if you take them across
01:59:14.820
Shoot, I can't remember the Supreme Court ruling from the 1930s where the guy was growing
01:59:24.760
Yeah, Commerce Clause, and he's growing wheat in his own, you know, on his own farm.
01:59:28.860
Yes, but it could be taken across state lines, and so the federal government has to regulate
01:59:37.500
Wasn't it you selling it within your state could manipulate the market in other states?
01:59:50.040
I'm too tired to remember the name of that case.
01:59:53.360
But that was, I think, what it was, because he wanted to sell it in his own state.
01:59:57.620
And he's like, okay, this got nothing to do with interstate commerce.
02:00:00.960
They're like, well, if you sell a bunch of wheat here, it could lower the price in another
02:00:12.700
That would be a big one, because you would just...
02:00:14.820
You would cut down the power of the federal government so much, so much.
02:00:19.380
And of course, remember, we're all anti-government here, you know?
02:00:26.960
You know, forget the people who are actually shooting at ICE.
02:00:37.240
Let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
02:00:44.300
Far too many people in this world who are hurting.
02:00:49.080
When missiles rain down on Israel, sirens wail in the middle of the night.
02:00:52.540
When families have to choose between staying in a war zone or fleeing with nothing, the world tends to look away.
02:01:00.620
They lift others up with food and shelter and security and hope.
02:01:04.260
Because their faith won't let them do anything else.
02:01:07.900
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is there right in the middle of it.
02:01:12.140
And they're on the ground in Israel delivering hot meals to the elderly, trapped in war-torn neighborhoods.
02:01:17.280
Getting survival packages to families huddled in bomb shelters.
02:01:20.620
And bringing Ukrainian Jews home to safety through emergency flights.
02:01:32.760
Who see the pain and choose to step in, not step back.

02:02:17.080
Yes, that's what we were trying to come up with.
02:02:23.480
Because you had mentioned, like, oh, it was about a guy just trying to sell some weed across state lines.
02:02:34.940
And then I said, no, I think it was worse than that.
02:02:37.280
It was actually, he just wanted to sell it inside the state.
02:02:40.420
And the argument was about, well, if you sell a bunch of weed inside your state, it could affect the overall national wheat market.
02:02:50.560
Because we look at things, and we still are looking at it semi-rationally.
02:02:57.580
No, you've got to go to the federal government.
02:03:00.360
No, in fact, the case was actually all about him wanting to grow wheat and consume it himself.
02:03:09.120
So it was wheat he was just growing in his backyard for himself.
02:03:14.340
And they said that could actually manipulate the national wheat market, so therefore Congress could control it.
02:03:21.180
Now, you might think to yourself, I don't think so, but then you have to think like a government stooge.
02:03:35.880
I mean, gosh, I don't know how this stuff stands.
02:03:40.960
And I don't, honestly, I don't know why somebody isn't bringing that case.
02:03:47.540
While we still have justices on our side, we should get the things like that overturned.
02:03:55.680
Imagine, you get the Commerce Clause overturned and the difference that it would make.
02:04:02.180
You know, I'm trying to think of, you know, what are the worst overreaches of the government?
02:04:07.660
And I, you know, I always come back to, again, property tax.
02:04:12.680
I think property tax is the most immoral, un-American tax there is.
02:04:22.700
Okay, now you're paying it, but you're only really paying the debt down, what, the last 10 years?
02:04:33.580
Then when you do pay it off, then you're renting it from the state.
02:04:38.620
Because the state, if you don't pay your taxes, they take your house away.
02:04:56.980
I was going to leave you with something profound.
