00:02:15.800 Now let's get to work.

00:02:45.800 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.

00:03:05.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program. 0.96

00:03:09.360 you know i know it has been hard to hold on to uh president trump with uh this iranian uh mess 0.60

00:03:20.580 that we have and uh it's been hard because you're feeling the pinch you're feeling the

00:03:27.700 inflation you're feeling the gas prices etc etc something was announced yesterday which would

00:03:33.200 explain why your gas prices have slowly been going down and you hadn't noticed it because

00:03:38.460 nobody's pointing it out because everybody's wringing their hands. And everybody in the press

00:03:42.580 is saying, we're going to have $150, $200 a barrel oil. Well, you know, yesterday the oil per barrel

00:03:48.820 was at $86. That doesn't make sense, does it? Why? Why is it at $86? And this morning, oil is at $80

00:03:56.660 a barrel. The president announced something yesterday when it was sitting at $86 and has

00:04:02.800 dropped more um by the way that's some of the cheapest oil we've had in a very long time um

00:04:09.860 why what did he announce where are we did we get a deal no no we didn't some good news finally uh

00:04:17.500 and for those of you who just did not play the media's game i've told you from the very beginning

00:04:24.120 i don't know what's going on you don't know what's going on i trust that the president knows what's

00:04:29.360 going on. And I'm not going to speculate and say that it's over or it's won until it is.

00:04:37.320 Well, it's not over. But what this president has done should give you some great confidence.

00:04:42.840 We'll explain here in 60 seconds. First, there are two kinds of problems in life. There are the

00:04:47.700 problems that you can fix. And then there are the problems that you, you know, they follow you

00:04:51.600 around. You're thinking about them constantly. And tax problems fall into that second category

00:04:56.800 because most people really don't know how to deal with the IRS.

00:04:59.600 They don't know what their options are.

00:05:01.080 They don't know what the next step should be.

00:05:02.880 And they're afraid of making the situation worse, so they wait.

00:05:05.760 While they're waiting, the stress just keeps growing.

00:05:08.100 And that's why, if this is you, I want you to call Rush Tax Resolution.

00:05:13.340 They work with people who are dealing with tax debt, levies, garnishments,

00:05:17.020 and all the other problems that can make the IRS kind of feel like a permanent cloud hanging over your head.

00:05:23.620 Rush Tax is an A-plus rated by the Better Business Bureau organization.

00:05:27.880 They are the only company that I would recommend for all of this.

00:05:31.240 They offer free IRS transcript investigation, and they'll tell you up front and for free if they can help.

00:05:37.420 They'll only take your case if they believe they can help you.

00:05:40.340 Call 877-554-7874, 877-554-7874, or go to RushTaxResolution.com.

00:05:53.020 Okay, so these are one of the stories that are bigger than the headlines.

00:05:56.880 If Trump's claim is substantially true, and I don't have any reason to doubt it,

00:06:02.800 then what he revealed yesterday was not just a military operation.

00:06:07.740 He revealed the United States has quietly been preventing the largest oil shock in modern history.

00:06:13.880 I'm going to explain what happened here in a second.

00:06:15.640 But remember, before the war, roughly 20 million barrels of oil per day were moving through the Strait of Hormuz.

00:06:22.380 that narrow stretch of water is one of the most important choke points on earth and one-fifth of

00:06:28.060 the world's petroleum passes through it easiest way to understand the Strait of Hormuz is this

00:06:33.780 imagine the world's energy supply is blood flowing through arteries the Strait of Hormuz

00:06:40.840 is the aorta okay you can survive a cut on your arm on your arm but you cannot survive a severed

00:06:48.120 aorta. When Iran began attacking shipping and laying mines, the fear was not just that the

00:06:54.440 ships would be damaged. The fear was that the world's energy system would seize up. Gas prices

00:07:00.060 would spike, which they did, but not what they were predicting. Airline fuel would spike. It did,

00:07:06.620 but not what they were expecting. Same with diesel. Food prices, same. Everything delivered

00:07:12.860 by truck would become more expensive and it did but they were warning about absolute i mean i mean

00:07:20.740 like a death knell kind of shock they were warning about 150 200 a barrel on oil prices they said it

00:07:28.920 could go over 200 a barrel this system is not built for anything over 130 or really over 130

00:07:37.880 in sustained oil okay what happened well it never exploded the way they feared yet everybody was

00:07:46.880 freaking out okay because you are paying more and it is hard to pay the price that you're paying at

00:07:52.960 the gas pump and for groceries yesterday donald trump said uh this about inflation now let me play

00:08:00.140 first what you heard on social media and on most media outlets this is what he said about inflation

00:08:07.600 i will you can serve mr president about the latest inflation number which came out this

00:08:16.980 morning could that be no i love it the numbers were great you know what i really love i love

00:08:21.900 the inflation you know why because as soon as this war is over you know i can say it now

00:08:27.480 okay that's what you heard i love inflation but you didn't hear the context

00:08:36.060 what was he going to say

00:08:38.240 what was he going to say

00:08:39.860 play the full

00:08:41.820 context

00:08:43.320 Mr. President about the latest

00:08:46.020 inflation number which came out this morning

00:08:48.260 could that be a no I love it

00:08:49.760 the numbers were great you know what I really love

00:08:52.320 I love the inflation you know why

00:08:54.120 because as soon as this war is over

00:08:56.320 you know I can say it now

00:08:58.440 something you didn't know

00:09:00.300 you know we've been taking out

00:09:01.560 millions of barrels of oil

00:09:04.300 nobody knows it you know who doesn't know about it iran until right now

00:09:09.180 we took out the other night 22 ships late at night with no lights because they don't have

00:09:16.080 any radar because we blasted the crap out of it we took out that's why oil is 85 a barrel

00:09:22.200 hmm wait a minute i thought he just loved inflation

00:09:29.040 no there's context to this my gosh stop listening to these people if anyone who played that

00:09:37.740 yesterday and leave that as a content don't listen to them anymore anymore

00:09:42.480 everybody makes mistakes but these are not mistakes this what he followed the i love

00:09:51.000 inflation with was massive why is oil at 86 a barrel because we're taking ships out in the

00:09:59.760 cover of darkness we we have been taking remember all the remember all of those ships that they said

00:10:06.880 were just stuck there with all the you know 100 million barrels of oil and they're just struck

00:10:11.980 stuck there in the straight arm moves and nothing can get them out yeah what they've been doing is

00:10:16.740 They've been taking those oil tankers out, moving the oil on other oil tankers, moving those oil tankers back in the cover of darkness.

00:10:27.560 This is a massive military operation.

00:10:31.140 We have been taking, Jason, what was it?

00:10:34.120 100 or 200 million barrels?

00:10:36.680 100 million.

00:10:38.400 100 million barrels we have taken out of the Strait of Hormuz in the cover of darkness, and there was nothing they could do about it.

00:10:46.740 this is an awesome operation, military operation.

00:10:54.160 Jason, give just a thumbnail sketch of how they did this.

00:10:57.880 It's interesting.

00:10:59.160 For the longest time,

00:11:00.740 there are people that have been analyzing the ships,

00:11:03.220 the very large container ships that are stuck.

00:11:05.900 I'll put that in air quotes, stuck,

00:11:07.820 and not able to get out of the Straits of Hormuz.

00:11:10.400 It now appears like they were not really stuck.

00:11:13.480 They were filling up with oil

00:11:15.680 and all the different countries, Iraq and so forth,

00:11:18.720 right there within the area.

00:11:21.480 And they were turning off their transponders,

00:11:24.660 going down towards Amman,

00:11:26.800 transferring that oil over to other ships

00:11:29.300 that were out on the other side of the Strait of Hormuz,

00:11:32.100 and then they were continuing on.

00:11:34.040 I don't even know the full ins and outs

00:11:37.860 of the actual military operation,

00:11:39.880 but many people have been speculating

00:11:42.500 that the use of drone ships, other aerial drones as well, were involved in this. That Apache

00:11:48.620 helicopter that went down a few days ago, some people are speculating that it was also a part

00:11:53.560 of this escort mission. But the fact that it was done without anyone knowing about it, including

00:11:59.680 analysts that look at this day in and day out, is truly remarkable. It's absolutely stunning.

00:12:04.720 so your gas hasn't spiked up it was at 86 a barrel why because while everyone was wringing

00:12:15.060 their hands and i have to tell you it has been a hard few weeks when we keep going back and forth

00:12:21.060 with are we having you know we're going to have negotiations we are on negotiation we're off

00:12:25.260 negotiation we got a deal we don't have a deal it's been really difficult somebody i think it

00:12:30.840 was chicks on the right uh i was on their show a couple of days ago i think it airs next week

00:12:36.480 and i said they they asked me glenn what would you tell the president i said what would i tell

00:12:41.080 the president i wouldn't tell the president anything i don't have any information i don't

00:12:45.300 have inside information i don't have the access to the intel that he has i'm pretty sure he has

00:12:51.940 a plan i don't know what it is but i i i don't i don't feel i was qualified to tell the president

00:12:59.180 without any kind of briefing on what is really going on.

00:13:02.980 And I know he's being briefed by really, really smart people.

00:13:06.760 Here's the thing.

00:13:07.400 We are used to the presidents that we've always had before.

00:13:13.740 And what have we had before?

00:13:16.340 Lawyers. 0.99

00:13:17.920 They're all freaking lawyers. 0.99

00:13:21.680 All of them have been lawyers. 0.99

00:13:25.640 Tell me what lawyers build.

00:13:27.660 lawyers don't build a damn thing lawyers tell you what you cannot do not what you can do for the

00:13:35.980 very first time in my life we have a builder we have a guy who knows how to build who knows how

00:13:44.600 to solve problems who can look at something and go well okay we got to get it done so here's how

00:13:50.960 we do it a lawyer looks at things and says well i see what we have to do but here's all the problems

00:13:56.500 we can't do that we can't do that we can't do that we can't do that if you've ever worked for

00:14:01.540 a company that is run by lawyers you know how much they suck get used to having a president

00:14:09.040 who has a plan who is a builder this is what he announced yesterday while we're expecting him 0.94

00:14:18.820 going well gee i i don't know what are we going to do now we used all our bombs i don't know what

00:14:24.060 else this is a guy who says there's got to be another way how do we get that oil out of there

00:14:29.320 and he assembles a team to figure it out and they do it

00:14:34.360 i told you early on in this and i'm telling you now too don't count this as the win

00:14:42.480 but don't don't count everything as a loss you don't know nobody can tell you what's

00:14:51.140 actually happening nobody knows what's actually happening just gosh if you have been worried

00:14:58.560 and look it's normal to worry about things like inflation because it's affecting you every day

00:15:06.120 and you're like i don't have i told you last few weeks i've been telling you about everybody is

00:15:11.360 just holding on just need more time need more time to need more time and i said it starts with

00:15:17.180 you. You're looking at your bills every day. You're just like, hold on, hold on, just a little

00:15:21.240 bit longer. Just hold on a little longer. I can make it if something breaks my way.

00:15:25.440 So I understand that fear in your own life. And I understand the struggle that you're going through.

00:15:32.720 But there's no reason to take extra stress on yourself by worrying about stuff that nobody

00:15:41.500 knows what's actually happening this is not america first well i don't know sure the health

00:15:49.440 seems like america first uh to me if you can break the back of iran and we can keep our oil

00:15:55.500 under 80 a barrel i don't know that seems pretty good

00:16:00.020 here's the real question

00:16:05.880 why did he just say that did he say it because they just said what are you gonna do about

00:16:15.880 inflation maybe but we're in negotiations why would he tell the world now because normally

00:16:24.820 if something that you're doing covertly is working you keep your mouth shut you don't announce your

00:16:30.840 covert successes you especially don't announce them when you have negotiations happening so why

00:16:37.340 did he do it well i came up with three different things i put them up on the chalkboard let me give

00:16:43.640 me one minute i'm going to go to the chalkboard i'll show you the three the three reasons i think

00:16:48.260 he did it which should actually give you even more hope that you know hey looks like we have

00:16:54.940 a competent person for the first time in the White House. We don't have a freaking lawyer. 0.96

00:17:01.540 We actually have somebody who's a builder and can figure things out. We go there in 60 seconds. 0.93

00:17:07.300 First, let me tell you about relief factor. Can you feel my contempt for lawyers? I mean,

00:17:11.680 they're good in what they do. Just stay out of business, okay? Advise and get the hell out of

00:17:17.600 my office. Anyway, feeling young isn't about how many candles are on your birthday cake. It's not

00:17:22.180 whether you can still fit in the same jeans you wore 20 years ago.

00:17:26.200 It's all about possibility.

00:17:27.500 When you're younger, you don't spend a lot of time thinking about

00:17:29.880 whether you can do something or not.

00:17:31.880 You just do it.

00:17:32.700 And as you get older, that pain comes along.

00:17:35.240 That changes everything.

00:17:36.720 That's why I'm such a believer in Relief Factor.

00:17:38.940 It's 100% drug-free supplement designed to help support

00:17:42.040 a healthy inflammatory response, addressing pain at its source

00:17:45.720 rather than just covering it up.

00:17:47.240 And more than a million people have tried Relief Factor,

00:17:49.940 and two-thirds of them have gone on to order more.

00:17:53.540 The real goal is not to turn back the clock,

00:17:56.340 but to get back some of the possibilities.

00:18:02.720 Spend less time wondering whether you can do something

00:18:04.760 and more time just doing it.

00:18:06.300 As America celebrates their 250 years of independence,

00:18:08.780 give yourself a chance to reclaim yours.

00:18:10.420 To commemorate, they're offering a special patriotic price

00:18:13.080 of $17.76.

00:18:15.660 $17.76, you can pursue your happiness pain-free.

00:18:18.740 Three-week quick start for $17.76.

00:18:23.760 Visit relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com, or call 800-4-RELIEF.

00:18:28.640 800, the number 4, RELIEF.

00:18:30.380 10 seconds, station ID.

00:18:42.040 So this is a massive deal.

00:18:44.380 This is like, I think, Venezuelan-style deal that he announced yesterday.

00:18:51.840 Meruini took out the leader of Venezuela, and you're like, whoa, what just happened?

00:18:55.560 This is amazing what he announced yesterday, what our military has been doing.

00:19:00.900 So why would he announce it to the world when it's working?

00:19:07.260 Why not just keep going?

00:19:09.000 I came up with three reasons, and I have no idea if any of these are true.

00:19:13.120 what's going through his head. I have no idea. I have no inside information, but just trying to

00:19:17.740 understand Donald Trump and understanding him the way I do. Let me give you, give me, give you three

00:19:22.700 options. First one is really simple. It's poker. He's playing poker. Remember the guy bluffs,

00:19:28.820 the guy knows how to move. He is a negotiator. So he's sending a message to Iran and a very

00:19:34.200 specific, a specific message. And here's the message. We already beat your biggest leverage

00:19:40.060 point, okay? What is that? It's always been the Strait of Hormuz. Every president has worried

00:19:46.520 about it. Every oil trader has feared it. Every military planner has studied it. The threat has

00:19:51.340 always been Iran could choke off the global oil supply and oil will be $200 a barrel.

00:19:58.580 Well, Trump just declared that's not going to happen. Fail. If that's the message,

00:20:06.760 then it is aimed directly at the negotiating table imagine a poker player they're sitting

00:20:11.720 there and they've got you know i don't know three kings and they're like we got three kings we're

00:20:17.200 gonna and then the other player takes his cards and lays them face up on the table he's got four

00:20:24.220 aces and you're looking at your hand you're like oh crap that changes the negotiation immediately

00:20:31.140 Trump is shaping expectations before the deal. You got nowhere to go. I am not afraid of you. 0.93

00:20:39.680 Remember, the one thing that I learned from him that is innate in him, it's this. When he was

00:20:46.320 down on the ground in Butler, Pennsylvania, I asked him, what were you thinking? What was going

00:20:53.520 through your head? He said, get the hell up. You want to be the president of the United States?

00:20:58.620 you're not afraid you're the leader of the free world get the hell up show them you're not afraid

00:21:03.420 we don't cower to people that was his first reaction wouldn't have been mine but that's who

00:21:09.900 he is so that's what he's doing in negotiations he's like we're not afraid of you you think we're

00:21:17.720 afraid of you you have no leverage over us you want and need the other side to be in a stare down

00:21:26.140 contest and let them look away first because they realize oh god this guy's not bluffing

00:21:31.180 and we're in worse situation than we think we are so this statement says your military is defeated

00:21:38.260 your economy is collapsing your biggest weapon against us you know be it nukes that's gone

00:21:45.760 or this that's now gone these are not random comments these are negotiating positions

00:21:53.780 almost like opening arguments delivered publicly now there's two other possibilities the second

00:22:00.740 possibility is aimed at china people forget china imports enormous quantities of middle

00:22:06.840 middle eastern oil from the strait of hormuz okay if america can keep hormuz functioning while iran

00:22:13.620 can't stop it then trump is reminding beijing of something american presidents have quietly

00:22:19.700 understood for generations. The U.S. Navy remains the guarantor of global commerce. China can build

00:22:26.480 all the factories you want. You build all the ports, all the ships, all the cars that go on

00:22:31.040 the ship. You'd build all of it. We control the oceans. That is a message that every major power

00:22:38.820 understands. Third possibility is you. He knows what you're feeling. He knows you are beginning

00:22:51.240 to freak out and you're like, what are we doing? What are we doing? What's the plan here? What's

00:22:55.280 the plan? He wants you to understand that you're not just not experiencing a massive energy shock.

00:23:03.860 the price of gas has gone down recently have you even heard anybody mention that no he wants you

00:23:12.240 to see that he wants you to think about what you would have seen if oil had hit 200 a barrel gas

00:23:19.300 stations inflation higher grocery bills higher heating costs political panic if the administration

00:23:24.800 believes it prevented that outcome it wants americans to know it also wants you to know

00:23:31.980 we're close to victory now this is pure speculation and hope we're close to victory

00:23:38.940 as he said yesterday once this war is over it's at 80 a barrel today once this is over

00:23:46.540 what do you think you're going to be paying what do you think is going to happen to inflation

00:23:51.360 all right let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour it's mercury one this summer

00:23:56.240 we turn 250 years old and of all the generations who have ever lived in this country all the

00:24:01.640 people who have ever called themselves Americans, we are the ones who get to stand here at this

00:24:05.880 milestone. God put us here, and that raises an important question. What are we going to do with

00:24:11.000 that gift? Because America's story is under attack, and it is being rewritten, distorted,

00:24:16.200 and reduced to a caricature of itself. A whole generation is growing up without really

00:24:20.840 understanding the extraordinary story of this nation, and that's why the American journey

00:24:24.920 experience matters so much. 2,000 years ago, God's truth was preserved in clay pots, and that is what

00:24:32.060 the American Journey experience is about. It's America's clay pot. We are now announced just a

00:24:38.420 few weeks ago that we are building a museum with over 100,000 artifacts spanning history from

00:24:43.740 Christopher Columbus through the space race to challenge the very idea of a museum and to bring

00:24:50.160 our history to life for the next generation, not to only enjoy, but to know it and carry it forward

00:25:41.380 so i was just talking to uh jason and the insiders during the break

00:25:47.960 and jason said jason come on in on this he said i i the biggest question is why yesterday why did

00:25:56.500 he say this yesterday um we're entering the holidays everybody is trying to make plans for

00:26:02.100 fourth of july um and when you're making plans for fourth of july you're usually going to think

00:26:06.800 about taking your kids someplace and you get in the car you buy an airplane ticket and you buy

00:26:11.580 that airplane ticket or you stop at that gas station and you're like good heavens man this is

00:26:16.140 out of control you couple that with the psychology of the american people that right now even his

00:26:22.320 supporters even jason you said this the other day and i said this to to some degree the other day as

00:26:29.940 well look i am concerned i don't know what's happening i don't know how you get out of this

00:26:36.480 thing um and you were like i think we have to put ground troops in i'm like i don't know i don't want

00:26:42.320 ground troops. No, no, no. And you're like, Glenn, I don't see a way out of this. So we've both been

00:26:48.080 very supportive of this is America first. This is important. But then even his ardent supporters

00:26:55.120 were saying, I don't see a way out. I don't know how we're going to do this. And that's because

00:27:01.140 both of us know you can't give them a win. Two, you have the possibility of $150 to $250 barrel

00:27:12.600 of oil. That is why every president has said, Iran has got to be stopped. Iran's got to be 0.97

00:27:24.180 stopped. Iran's got to be stopped. But they won't do anything about it because they know that could 1.00

00:27:28.980 mean $150 to $250 a barrel of oil. That collapses the Western economy. We are not built for anything

00:27:39.960 near $150 a barrel for oil. So it collapses everything. We know that. We've been told that

00:27:50.260 our whole life he's taken this whole war and oil has not gone past 112 a barrel that's expensive

00:28:00.840 at the gas pump but that's not 150 or 200 and so what causes that is oh god are we going to send

00:28:08.700 ground troops in are we going to is this thing going to get bigger and bigger is this never

00:28:12.120 going to stop how are we going to get that oil out of there donald trump has been doing a secret

00:28:16.700 military operation that we don't even know how he did it yet but they were taking boats out in the

00:28:23.800 middle of the night these oil tankers that were full of oil taking them to the other side of oman

00:28:29.980 taking that oil pumping them onto other ships and then having the empty ships go back and park in

00:28:36.080 the morning exactly where they were and so everybody's like oh ships aren't moving oil's

00:28:41.120 not moving it was moving that's why before this announcement it was 86 a barrel why why was the

00:28:50.500 price of oil so low when everybody was feeling like this is going poorly that we're not going

00:28:57.560 to have we're not going to have an end to this war that doesn't make any sense and did you notice

00:29:02.960 nobody was talking about it all they could talk about was the high price of gasoline

00:29:08.200 jason how much was gasoline in texas four weeks ago at its height three four weeks ago

00:29:16.360 uh 104 it was 104 no i mean gasoline i was like you're paying 104 a gallon around around yeah

00:29:27.020 that would be bad uh about about four dollars here in texas okay so texas is always the best

00:29:33.740 on gas prices okay uh about four dollars what was it i don't know 10 days ago 10 days ago it was

00:29:44.700 time before last uh trying to look at stats right now it was just yes don't do you remember a week

00:29:55.880 ago what was it it was almost five dollars a gallon it was almost five dollars a gallon what

00:30:00.180 In South Florida.

00:30:01.420 What is it today?

00:30:03.900 Do you know?

00:30:04.880 When I left, I passed a station today, and it was like $3.19 a gallon.

00:30:11.840 $3.19 a gallon.

00:30:13.280 So it was $4 in Texas a few weeks ago.

00:30:16.520 It's $3.19.

00:30:18.240 Notice nobody was talking about that.

00:30:20.860 That's almost a dollar drop in the price of oil, and things are going horribly.

00:30:25.460 i think one of the reasons and i said this earlier one of the reasons is he needs to tell

00:30:31.100 people who are his base who understand that this had to be done i've got a plan i've had a plan

00:30:38.880 but no one is noticing that the plan is working and your price of gasoline is going down

00:30:46.280 it's almost at three dollars in texas you watch see what see what it is next week

00:30:53.260 that it's going down and that's always slower and nobody wants to say it so i think a really

00:31:00.960 important reason why he announced this yesterday was for people like us guys could you relax i got

00:31:09.260 it you didn't you refused to even notice that it's not gone over 112 a barrel you refuse to

00:31:15.680 even notice that that's a miracle that's a miracle it is that is as big as anything that

00:31:23.220 happened in venezuela that we've just done war with iran and it's not gone over 112 a barrel and

00:31:31.180 today we haven't negotiated a ceasefire in fact it's kind of rocky on the ceasefire thing or the

00:31:36.860 the peace treaty and it's at 80 we're just not you we're used to a lawyer being our president

00:31:46.540 we're not used to a builder being our president um all right let me ask you about a couple of

00:31:51.580 other things you remember that cia um officer who was just nabbed he had gold bars uh he had

00:32:00.160 all kinds of stuff it looks like now he was running his own cia kind of program uh and he

00:32:07.780 was setting up his own spy agency what the hell is this story jason you've been following this

00:32:12.940 what the heck what is this i thought this hit peak what the heck is going on in the cia when

00:32:19.340 we first heard about this story but when you first heard about the story if you recall they had

00:32:23.160 gotten this uh guy that was in the cia and they found gold bars in his house and we were like right

00:32:28.460 you know normal corruption what's this all about well the story today via the washington post

00:32:34.820 said that he was doing a little bit more than just collecting gold bars he had constructed

00:32:40.680 his own special access program what's called a sap so basically the way the top secret system

00:32:46.740 works you know the classification system works multiple people have top secret clearances which

00:32:50.820 means you have the the ability to know pretty much anything but the way they give the need to

00:32:56.240 know is they provide certain categories and a sap designation so if you don't have the need to be

00:33:01.280 read into this you can eventually be read in but you're going to be excluded from this information

00:33:06.880 well he somehow constructed his own special access program within the government i don't know how you

00:33:14.940 do that but i i don't know how you do that unless you have well wait wait wait wait you don't know

00:33:20.600 how you do that i'm assuming you're gonna say unless you have all kinds of help from the inside

00:33:26.680 right that's where i was going yes yeah but i mean you would think that okay so this guy probably

00:33:32.800 wasn't read into anything else probably wasn't involved with anything well that is wrong as well

00:33:38.020 He worked at the CIA's Directorate of Science and Technology.

00:33:44.580 Oh, good.

00:33:46.000 He also worked with a program involved of, quote, continuity of government operations or programs to keep the federal government running in the event of nuclear war and natural disasters.

00:33:58.900 This is how, Glenn, you get the stuff that we're like, okay, I'm just going to throw out some wild ones.

00:34:04.180 But like how, you know, people are like, how do you have like, you know, stuff like aliens getting through administration, deferred administration or whatever?

00:34:10.760 Or let's get away from that. 0.50

00:34:12.420 Black ops programs that nobody else in the government knows about.

00:34:15.640 Isn't it because the CIA is just doing CIA things and this is how it operates?

00:34:21.400 Yes.

00:34:22.540 Yes.

00:34:23.680 This is the deep state.

00:34:25.360 This is what, I mean, I'm telling you, the CIA is out of control.

00:34:32.440 Ricky.

00:34:33.760 Jason and I were very excited about this story in the meeting.

00:34:36.620 One thing we forgot to mention is that he reported to the number two Pentagon official.

00:34:40.700 So it's not like this guy is just doing these operations willy-nilly on his own.

00:34:44.860 And it's also not probably a coincidence or an accident that he's one of the few people that's been publicly charged with a crime that used to work for the CIA.

00:34:55.020 The CIA wants you to know this.

00:34:57.140 Like, also, these guys have to pass really strict psychological exams.

00:35:01.440 And now I'm wondering if the test is, you got to be psycho in order to work for the CIA.

00:35:09.200 Oh, I think so.

00:35:11.200 I mean, you watched, have you watched the Bond series?

00:35:15.280 You know, with Daniel Craig?

00:35:17.400 All of them.

00:35:17.760 You watched all those?

00:35:18.180 Okay.

00:35:19.160 Yeah.

00:35:19.760 So you remember what M used to say?

00:35:23.260 If we can control him.

00:35:25.240 If we can control him.

00:35:26.580 you know we got to get somebody who's badly damaged um because that's the only kind of guy

00:35:32.600 that's going to do this work and we we can we can trust that they'll be willing to do it and they'll

00:35:38.960 do it well if we can control him i think this is exactly the kind of guy our cia looks for

00:35:46.240 and this guy probably will tell you today he could probably sit in front of you and say i'm a patriot

00:35:51.780 I'm an absolute patriot for what I was doing.

00:35:55.240 And I don't know what he was doing.

00:35:58.100 But, I mean, you know, that was when they first admitted that, you know, he had, what was it, like, 12 gold bars or some crazy amount of gold.

00:36:06.020 We're not talking about, like, little teeny, you know, little teeny gold bars.

00:36:09.960 We're talking about gold bars.

00:36:12.640 You don't, where do you get that?

00:36:14.700 I don't even know where you buy gold bars like that.

00:36:17.740 I have no idea.

00:36:19.660 Here's what you do.

00:36:20.580 You go into the CIA and you're talking to somebody who knows about what you're doing.

00:36:25.380 You're like, I need some gold.

00:36:27.840 They'll get you the gold.

00:36:29.700 They'll get it for you.

00:36:31.120 You get it from Saudi or you get it from a, you know, some sort of a, what do they call those? 0.99

00:36:37.800 Property cages where they've taken it from somebody else. 0.82

00:36:42.240 And now it's in an evidence room.

00:36:44.360 And gee, what happened to those gold bars in the evidence room?

00:36:46.660 Gee, I don't know.

00:36:47.460 I don't know.

00:36:48.940 Bob.

00:36:49.880 I don't know.

00:36:51.680 I mean, I wonder if the guy that Trump has just put in

00:36:57.160 as a replacement for Tulsi Gabbard is strong enough to do this.

00:37:00.660 I mean, I don't know anybody who is strong enough to do this.

00:37:02.720 He doesn't have the expertise.

00:37:06.220 So does he even know how this game is played?

00:37:09.120 Because these guys, it's all black ops to them.

00:37:12.720 And I think they're doing black ops on all of us.

00:37:15.720 It's not good.

00:37:17.620 So what do you think we find out about this?

00:37:19.440 What comes of this, Jason?

00:37:21.640 Well, my fear of how this progresses

00:37:24.360 is that this one name is the only one that gets focused on.

00:37:28.800 And maybe that's just the way I think,

00:37:30.460 but I'm highly suspicious that

00:37:31.860 with the amount of highly classified projects

00:37:34.840 that he is being linked to, or at least hinted around,

00:37:37.660 and he's the sole name that's like,

00:37:40.420 oh, don't look at us, just look at this dude. 0.99

00:37:42.760 It was just this crazy corrupt guy. 0.98

00:37:45.240 Are you kidding me? 0.95

00:37:45.960 I think it goes a lot deeper, but if you start seeing that he is the only name being thrown out there, I kind of think something fishy is going on with all of this.

00:37:55.080 So what you're saying is he's the Eric Swalwell of the CIA.

00:38:01.540 Do we need to make up a song?

00:38:04.240 Yeah.

00:38:04.760 No, but think about it.

00:38:05.960 He's the Eric Swalwell.

00:38:07.480 He either outlived his usefulness or somebody was going to get caught or whatever.

00:38:13.040 And so they sell him down the river.

00:38:15.380 you don't ever nobody ever talks about wait everybody was in on that swalwell thing everybody

00:38:21.820 knew it everybody knew it and now just swalwell's the bad guy uh-uh it's the same story these guys

00:38:30.600 are running the same op on the american people over and over and over again when are we going

00:38:37.800 to wake up to it all right let me tell you about rough greens scientists are always trying to

00:38:42.280 figure out how to extend human life they're studying genetics diet exercise cellular aging

00:38:47.120 all kinds of things meanwhile dogs have spent thousands of years conducting their own research

00:38:52.300 project their conclusion appears to be eat whatever falls on the floor yet somehow they

00:38:57.600 still look at us like we're the one responsible for their health which to be fair we are but

00:39:01.440 what i want to know about uh rough greens is uh is my dog gonna eat that was the first thing is my

00:39:07.920 dog going to eat it? It's going to make him healthier. How? Your dog is most likely getting

00:39:13.980 kibble. That's what my dog was. I'm feeding him a good, really good kibble too. Process of making

00:39:19.360 its shelf stable, however, is really difficult because it removes the probiotics and the omega

00:39:25.700 oils and antioxidants, some of the vitamins, minerals, and that all supports their health,

00:39:29.740 but it's cooked at such a high temperature. Rough greens is not a dog food. It's a nutritional

00:39:34.840 supplement you sprinkle it on the food you're already feeding them if your dog's going to

00:39:38.960 continue to make nutritional decisions that include includes eating mysterious objects from

00:40:00.600 better. Doesn't matter if you drive a truck or a Tesla. Raising good kids takes the same kind of

00:40:10.760 love. More Glenn Beck next. If you're taking something every day,

00:40:29.820 You don't want the main benefit to be that a doctor points at a chart six months from now and says, well, technically, that's a little better.

00:40:38.140 You know, don't get me wrong.

00:40:38.920 I mean, it's better than nothing, right?

00:40:40.860 But if you're like me and you have tried really hard to be healthy lately, you got to do something and you want to get results that are basically going to impress the doctor, not just a little tiny improvement.

00:40:52.140 You want to feel like something is actually working if you're going to take the time to take something every single morning.

00:40:56.700 That's one of the main reasons that Native Path and Arctic krill oil has really been kind of sweeping the country.

00:41:03.440 Like a lot of people, you know, you heard for years, right?

00:41:06.500 Like omega-3s, they're really important.

00:41:09.280 Maybe you tried fish oil.

00:41:10.720 Maybe you tried all sorts of different things.

00:41:12.920 The problem is you probably didn't notice all that much improvement.

00:41:16.460 But krill oil is absorbed differently.

00:41:18.600 Some studies have been shown up to 50% more absorbable, I'm never going to be able to say that word, than regular fish oil.

00:41:26.220 means that your body basically is able to make better use of it.

00:41:30.700 And what's interesting about that is in head-to-head studies,

00:41:33.360 they've shown that krill oil actually outperforms fish oil

00:41:35.940 when it comes to supporting healthy cholesterol,

00:41:38.460 helping with inflammation and easing joint discomfort.

00:42:28.660 we're focusing this summer on the bill of rights uh michael the girl wrote okay mr beck you got

00:42:34.740 the approval of my 10 year old she says this is way better than the bill song that she had to

00:42:39.160 watch a million times in school very excited for the future we're praying for you all thank you

00:42:43.380 uh torchy as a homeschooling mom of six boys i'm beyond excited to find out what's in store

00:42:48.720 of the Torch Insiders. We're incorporating the Torch education content into our homeschool this

00:42:53.220 coming year. Thank you. Thank you. Let's see. Angelique said, I went through the first half

00:42:59.380 of the lesson with my 10-year-old this afternoon. We had some fun discussions, which led to a lot

00:43:03.920 of what-ifs, and I have no doubt he understands the First Amendment now. Looking forward to the

00:44:18.620 Father's Day is coming up. It's right around the corner. And every year we all go through

00:44:22.480 exactly the same exercise. We try to find a gift for dad, even though most dads spend their whole

00:44:26.560 lives insisting, I don't need anything. The best gifts aren't usually the flashiest ones. They're

00:44:31.320 the things that a man reaches for time and time again, over and over. The things that become part

00:44:35.440 of his daily life because they're well made they're comfortable and they're built to last

00:44:39.180 that's why i think american giant makes so much sense for father's day they make premium hoodies

00:46:27.500 suddenly you know suddenly beat number two uh beat number one wait wait what happened

00:46:35.540 um yes it does break for democrats but not like this historically speaking that's according to

00:46:43.040 ai i don't know what's going on but i have to tell you we need to investigate it because uh

00:46:49.080 we have to have trust in the system and california does everything to violate that trust

00:46:53.700 i'll play play some uh some sound that is now coming out from the homeless that are like yeah

00:47:09.880 in after the election yeah yeah they did in that weird and they just happen to be breaking

00:47:15.560 uh the way they're breaking that's so strange we're going to talk about that and a solution

00:47:20.840 at least one from the past. And I'll tell you a story of a little town here in America

00:47:27.680 that was facing similar things. What did they do? I'll tell you to share that story here in

00:47:33.740 just a second. First, let me tell you about Real Estate Agents I Trust. One of the insiders,

00:47:38.820 Tay, wrote in about his experience with Real Estate Agents I Trust. He said,

00:47:41.920 when my wife and I decided it was time to find our own homestead, Real Estate Agents I Trust

00:47:46.400 connected us with Scott. We are first-time homebuyers and had very little knowledge of

00:47:51.060 the market. We could have easily made some very expensive mistakes. Instead, Scott gave us the

00:47:55.860 honest truth about every property we looked at and never pushed us towards a decision or a bad

00:48:00.420 decision for sure. Over six grueling months and more than eight offers, he was always available,

00:48:07.740 always encouraging, and always confident that our dream home was out there. He was right. Today,

00:48:12.520 I'm greeted by my wife and my son in a home we could have only dreamt of back then. I can't

00:48:17.720 thank you guys enough for this service and for connecting us with somebody dedicated to helping

00:48:21.840 people find the right home. Tay, you are so welcome. Thank you for writing in. Thank you

00:48:26.680 for telling me that. Check out realestateagentsitrust.com. We'll show you how you can

00:48:30.900 buy a home or sell your home, even in a tough market. The name says it all. It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:48:37.600 So I want to play some audio here that we now have from, let me see if I can find it.

00:48:49.340 We now have From the Streets.

00:48:52.000 It's cut eight.

00:48:53.260 These are Skid Row homeless that were paid to vote.

00:50:15.680 Dog eat dog.

00:50:18.880 Wow.

00:50:25.060 Let me tell you a story.

00:50:28.160 A group of guys came home from the war.

00:50:30.000 it was spring and summer in 1946 they had left McMinn County in Tennessee and they left as boys

00:50:39.600 and they came back as men they had crossed an ocean and walked through hell they had waded onto

00:50:47.600 the beaches of Normandy they had taken islands in the Pacific that you could fit in your backyard

00:50:53.160 one yard of sand at a time

00:50:55.660 they buried friends in that sand

00:50:57.480 they were men

00:50:59.400 about 3,000 of them

00:51:01.080 came back to that one little county

00:51:03.760 in the hills of East Tennessee

00:51:05.000 1946

00:51:06.380 their little town

00:51:10.100 they realized had been quietly

00:51:12.160 stolen while they were gone

00:51:13.580 because some of the bad men stayed

00:51:16.240 let me tell you what happened while they were gone

00:51:19.960 Memphis political boss

00:51:21.660 his name was Ed Crump

00:51:23.860 He had reached his hand all the way across the state.

00:51:27.060 And back in 1936, he had installed a man named Paul Cantrell as the sheriff in what the folks still call the vote grab.

00:51:39.580 Once they had the sheriff's office, they had everything.

00:51:43.280 They put a fee on the system.

00:51:45.060 The deputies got paid per arrest.

00:51:47.920 So the deputies had every reason in the world to arrest you.

00:51:50.700 and they would shake down the travelers passing on the highway they pulled people off of buses they

00:51:55.680 find them for drunkenness they would invent it on the spot 10 years they squeezed like 300 000

00:52:03.580 out of ordinary people that way this is in the great depression and then every couple of years

00:52:10.700 when an election would come the voters would come out um and the vote would always come out with

00:52:16.980 control on the top and whatever he said that's how it happened the decent people in the county

00:52:24.880 weren't stupid and they weren't silent in 1940 and then again in 42 again in 44 they wrote to

00:52:30.980 the state attorney general and to the fbi and they begged begged for an honest election help us 0.90

00:52:37.200 nobody came nobody lifted a finger come to find out later it's because the governor was also

00:52:43.420 involved but now it's 1946 men are coming home and they see this now they've just dealt with

00:52:50.700 a dictator they've just dealt with mussolini the emperor of japan and hitler and they're like

00:52:57.440 i'm not putting up with this here so they did something that i want you to notice here

00:53:06.340 listen to the whole story because it tells you everything about who they were

00:53:11.640 They didn't form a Republican ticket.

00:53:14.120 They didn't form a Democratic ticket.

00:53:16.280 They formed a nonpartisan ticket.

00:53:18.780 Three Republicans, two Democrats.

00:53:21.120 They understood it's not a left or right fight.

00:53:23.680 This is a right or wrong fight.

00:53:26.880 For Sheriff, against Cantrell himself, they put up one of their own.

00:53:30.980 His name was Knox Henry.

00:53:33.000 He was a decorated veteran of the North African campaign.

00:53:36.540 They gave themselves a slogan, five words.

00:53:38.980 And I want you to hear them because men were willing to die.

00:53:47.180 They were willing to die for these five words.

00:53:50.700 Your vote will be counted as cast.

00:53:56.380 Actually seven, but that was it.

00:53:59.560 That was the whole revolution.

00:54:02.580 Count the votes the way people actually voted them.

00:54:05.960 well they were meeting in secret that spring never twice in the same place because they knew

00:54:13.440 they were going to be tracked and in may they went public and the machine answered the way

00:54:19.100 machines always do it was election day august the first sheriff mansfield brought in 200 armed men

00:54:27.660 he deputized all of them they were thugs some of them hauled out from uh out of state uh and they

00:54:33.720 all stood at the polls to make sure the wrong people were too scared to vote and they beat the

00:54:41.520 GIs because the GIs had poll watchers and there was just one or two at each poll and they beat 0.52

00:54:48.280 them bloody they locked some of them in jail then a black farmer named Tom Gillespie he came out to

00:54:54.860 cast his ballot deputy shot him good news Gillespie lived but that's what voting looked like

00:55:02.800 in McMinn County in that first day of August in 1946.

00:55:10.760 Votes over.

00:55:12.420 Now the machine has to make its move.

00:55:15.640 The ballot boxes.

00:55:17.260 So the deputies grab the ballot boxes off the table

00:55:20.260 and they run them down to the jail.

00:55:23.440 Big, solid brick jail.

00:55:25.620 They lock the doors because they were going to count the vote.

00:55:28.100 You know, all of the sheriff's deputies because they're the law.

00:55:31.340 they know everything is on the up and up they're going to do it in private in the dark because

00:55:36.300 well that's just the way it is done we don't need people watching don't question us

00:55:41.020 well one of the g gi leaders a veteran named bill white he watched him do it he understood exactly

00:55:50.320 what it meant you know he's like kind of with relief well they've shown their hand

00:55:55.720 so all we have to do is take the jail okay so they went and got their guns now they didn't have guns

00:56:04.760 they went to the national guard armory this is when we would keep our guns in armories and they

00:56:10.840 took down the very weapons they had just carried across the whole world the m1 uh the colt pistols

00:56:17.660 a couple of them took you know tommy machine guns they loaded them men had fought for three years

00:56:25.740 fighting fascism on two continents and in their own country the thing that they crossed the ocean

00:56:32.360 to kill had just set up shop in while they were gone in their town square one of them said the

00:56:39.880 principles we fought for in this in this war do not exist in mcminn county and we fought because

00:56:45.980 we believed in them. So they get their guns, and they surround the jail in the dark. They took up

00:56:54.180 firing positions on the embankment above it. They call out a demand. Bring the ballot boxes out

00:57:02.300 and count them in the open in front of God and everyone. Deputies inside refuse.

00:57:10.700 we don't know who fired first but somebody fired and the night cracked wide open for hours it went

00:57:18.840 muzzle flashes in the dark glass and brick chips flying men wounded on both sides

00:57:24.500 stubborn brick jail brick jail would not give so one of the guys who had been in the war and he

00:57:31.460 was a munitions expert he was in explosives uh it was about two o'clock in the morning he's like

00:57:37.760 we're not going to get through that brick so he goes back to the armory he gets dynamite he lights

00:57:43.940 it he throws it up on the jail's front porch the blast tears open the front of the building and

00:57:50.300 the deputies the tough imported gunman who had been beating voters all day surrendered okay okay

00:57:57.440 okay okay okay okay okay okay now here's the part that makes this not a war story but a american

00:58:06.620 story. Through all of it, the gun battle, the dynamite, the riot afterwards when the deputies

00:58:14.860 flip their cars and burn them in the streets, all of that night of fury, not one single person

00:58:22.180 was killed. Not a GI, not a deputy, not a voter, not one. When the sun came up over Athens, Tennessee,

00:58:33.380 The veterans didn't march, you know, on the courthouse and the jail and crown themselves king of the county.

00:58:41.400 What did they do?

00:58:43.480 What happened after they got the boxes?

00:58:48.400 Let me tell you in 60 seconds.

00:58:51.960 First, let me tell you about our...

00:58:53.660 NMLSconsumeraccess.org.

00:58:55.140 APR for Ritz and the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

00:58:58.860 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

00:59:03.380 Wow, I feel so much better every time the government makes us play that

00:59:06.440 because I'm like, okay, I'm safe.

00:59:07.860 I'm safe.

00:59:08.440 I'm completely safe because I understand all of that.

00:59:10.740 Anyway, sometimes we think about where we want to be in 10 or 20 years from now,

00:59:14.280 but we don't always think about the things that are putting pressure on us right now.

00:59:17.500 Credit card balance that keeps growing,

00:59:19.160 the interest charges that show up every single month,

00:59:21.780 a feeling that a big chunk of your paycheck has a destination

00:59:24.880 before it even hits your account.

00:59:30.060 That's not a long-term problem.

00:59:31.840 That is a today problem.

00:59:34.260 That's why I want to talk to you about American financing.

00:59:36.880 Ask them to walk through what it would look like if you got a smart equity loan.

00:59:40.780 Now, if you're a homeowner, you may have more equity than you realize,

00:59:44.860 and their salary-based mortgage consultants can help you explore that

00:59:47.920 and use ways to use that equity to pay off the high interest debt.

00:59:53.200 Customers are saving an average of over $800 a month.

00:59:56.540 So no upfront fees to find out if you qualify.

00:59:59.060 Talk to a salary-based consultant today, experts who are paid to help you save, not to sell you into something you don't want or cost you.

01:00:07.160 And by the way, you don't have to reset your mortgage.

01:00:09.260 If that's what you're worried about, don't get rid of that low-interest mortgage.

01:00:12.860 Call American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

01:00:20.720 Ten seconds, station ID.

01:00:29.060 So we're talking Athens in America, and the sun's coming up.

01:00:42.920 It's been a night of just terror. 0.98

01:00:46.260 The GIs are there.

01:00:48.220 What did they do once the deputies surrendered?

01:00:53.160 Did they go and announce that they were kings?

01:00:56.320 No, first thing they did was they cleaned all the rifles.

01:00:59.060 And then they carried them back to the armory.

01:01:01.360 They returned them.

01:01:03.120 Then they brought out the ballot boxes

01:01:05.380 and they counted the votes in the open,

01:01:09.000 in the daylight, the way they had promised.

01:01:12.700 They threw out the boxes the machine had tampered with

01:01:16.500 and the honest ballots that were left told the truth

01:01:19.860 that people had been trying to tell all along.

01:01:21.960 The GI ticket swept every office.

01:01:25.720 Two to one.

01:01:26.700 uh nox henry he was now the sheriff not because he had won the gunfight but because the votes

01:01:33.940 said so they had used the rifle to rescue the ballot and then they laid the rifle down and

01:01:41.780 bowed to the count they did that before the count that's the whole thing that's the entire

01:01:48.480 american bargain compressed into one night in tennessee hill country

01:01:52.900 the vote is not safe because the box is made of steel it's safe only because somewhere there are

01:02:02.540 people who still will not let it be stolen and who you know when the moment comes they will step up

01:02:10.280 and save it and hand power back to the count and not keep it for themselves that's the hard part

01:02:17.420 That is the genius of George Washington.

01:02:19.940 That is why people did this.

01:02:21.860 I can guarantee you these guys were fans of George Washington.

01:02:25.040 Because at the time, people knew that that's exactly how he behaved.

01:02:30.220 These men had already saved democracy once.

01:02:32.860 It was an ocean away.

01:02:34.440 In countries, most of them couldn't have found on a map just a few years before.

01:02:38.580 Now they came home, found out they had to do it one more time.

01:02:42.700 On their own street, against their own crooked government.

01:02:46.920 And they did.

01:02:48.380 And they gave their guns back.

01:02:52.020 Almost nobody knows their names now.

01:02:54.020 Nobody remembers.

01:02:55.380 Knox Henry, Bill White, Tom Gillespie.

01:02:59.500 Bleeding at the polls so the rest could vote.

01:03:03.340 I'm telling you this story so you'll remember them.

01:03:07.700 Because the next time somebody says to you,

01:03:10.500 you know what, this corruption is so out of control,

01:03:12.680 the ballots don't matter.

01:03:14.140 It doesn't matter if I voted.

01:03:16.060 Or you can't defend, you know, and get an honest vote.

01:03:19.580 Or that good men and women won't stand up when it's stolen.

01:03:22.880 You tell them about the night the soldiers came home to Athens, Tennessee.

01:03:28.800 You tell them that their only goal was to have your ballot counted as you cast it.

01:03:37.340 You tell them that after they fought for it, they laid their guns down, put them back in the armory.

01:03:46.060 and then counted the votes without guns in front of everyone.

01:03:53.340 I don't know.

01:03:56.920 I'm certainly not suggesting you pick up guns in California.

01:03:59.660 I'm certainly not suggesting that.

01:04:01.700 But I am telling you, you do have to take a stand.

01:04:05.520 You do have to stand up and say enough is enough.

01:04:09.920 Remember, their people had done it.

01:04:12.520 All of their people had done it since the war began.

01:04:16.980 So for five years, from 41 to 46, well, all the good men were gone.

01:04:22.780 And that's the key.

01:04:24.380 All the good men are not gone.

01:04:26.920 They're not gone.

01:04:28.020 We don't have a war where all the good men are gone.

01:04:31.880 That was what happened to that town.

01:04:33.620 All the good men, all the strong men were gone.

01:04:36.600 And so it allowed corruption.

01:04:38.040 All the good men in our day, I don't know, they're in hibernation.

01:04:50.500 But we don't need you to pick up guns.

01:04:53.780 We just need you to wake up.

01:04:56.440 That's what America needs.

01:04:58.460 Everybody in this audience is praying that people in California will wake up.

01:05:04.680 They'll notice.

01:05:06.380 I honestly don't know if we can prove corruption in California

01:05:10.800 because just like in Tennessee, they have the law.

01:05:17.660 They've passed laws that make it what they're doing legal.

01:05:22.300 And when you say, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

01:05:25.060 There's so much smoke here.

01:05:27.240 Just count them in the open.

01:05:29.600 Just let's see the entire process.

01:05:32.700 No, no.

01:05:34.260 and the legislature and the governor just signed a bill that says anybody who questions it is in

01:05:41.660 trouble. Anybody who casts doubt on it, anybody who, you know, wants to see things out in the

01:05:49.140 open. No, they've just made it. They've just put it deeper into that sheriff's office,

01:05:55.800 put it behind that cement wall that nobody's going to get through.

01:06:00.360 we've been here before we've solved these problems now what's the modern way of solving them

01:06:09.340 not with guns

01:06:11.820 but i'm telling you

01:06:15.360 the politicians don't fear the american people because they've taught us over the last 15 years

01:06:24.020 don't stand up don't gather or we'll crush you you don't need guns you just need to stand

01:06:30.180 together. You need to demand that every vote is counted as it was cast and that no one is allowed

01:06:38.780 to pay for votes. There's some laws that need to be changed in California, but the good news is

01:06:45.200 the jig is up. We know now exactly what they're doing. All right. I don't care about what you

01:06:53.080 think about the Israeli government. I really don't. I don't care what you think about Bibi

01:06:56.400 in it and yahoo you can love him or hate him it doesn't matter however i do care what you think

01:07:01.680 about god's people the jews you know and all people i think all people are god's people but

01:07:07.940 this one is kind of specific in the scriptures you know as christians one of our most sacred

01:07:12.440 duties is to bless the jews not agree with their political philosophy or their war strategy

01:07:18.600 but to say jews have a right not to be hunted for thousands of years christian christians have

01:07:25.500 recognize that the jewish people hold a unique place in god's story um but then what happens

01:07:32.040 things get tough and people start blaming the jews and they're easy to blame i guess uh and 0.96

01:07:38.520 people's people just abandon them and then they start rounding them up and killing them you know

01:07:44.020 when people are hungry when they need shelter when they need security medical care simply the

01:07:48.380 comfort of knowing that they've not been forgotten you have a responsibility to help and that's why

01:07:53.440 I'm proud to partner with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

01:10:03.700 glennbeck.com slash torch all right we were just talking about the election uh and i told you the

01:10:11.340 story of Athens, Tennessee. Ricky, in the break, she comes back and she's like, my heart broke for

01:10:17.360 those people who are on the streets, those indigent people who are on the streets. Because

01:10:22.520 if you look at them, especially that one woman, she's clearly addicted horribly to something. I 0.81

01:10:31.380 don't know what. And she's talking about how, yeah, they come down here three times a week and

01:10:36.460 they they ask us to vote for people they tell us who to vote for and we sign and we vote for whoever

01:10:42.420 they tell us to vote for and they give us two bucks ricky yeah i was just struck by the contrast

01:10:49.200 of you talking about how much they valued their vote and democracy in athens tennessee so many

01:10:54.800 years ago and how little elites in california do when they are willing to throw away the principle

01:11:03.040 behind what we try to do during elections

01:11:06.420 for a couple of bucks and a pack of cigarettes.

01:11:08.940 I'll just give it to the homeless.

01:11:10.780 You know, like it's a quick trade 0.96

01:11:12.740 and it's a soulless trade and it's disgusting. 0.81

01:11:16.640 And you know what?

01:11:18.920 You know what the difference is, I think,

01:11:21.060 why that can happen now and it didn't in Athens, Georgia?

01:11:26.220 Because people knew what the country was.

01:11:30.420 They knew the story of the country.

01:11:31.980 They knew the value of liberty.

01:11:34.800 They knew the value of the vote.

01:11:37.060 They knew that we were different because they had World War II. 0.51

01:11:41.060 The guys had World War II.

01:11:42.880 They saw what fascism was really like.

01:11:45.420 They saw what was really happening around the rest of the world.

01:11:48.560 And they came back and they were like, you know, the people of Athens, they didn't sell it out.

01:11:52.840 They were trying, but no one would listen to them.

01:11:56.460 The guys come back and like, we're not, we just took dictators out.

01:11:59.860 We are not going to have them here.

01:12:01.980 And so they knew the value because they knew the history of the country.

01:12:06.060 They knew what their rights actually were and the responsibilities that each individual has.

01:12:14.540 But I contend, you know, it's really sad because these people are addicted.

01:12:18.800 They are, I mean, when you will sell some, you will sell your birthright for $2, you're addicted.

01:12:25.400 You have, I mean, they're just trying to survive.

01:12:28.240 They're trying to get to their next fix or hit or whatever it is.

01:12:31.980 You know, get a sandwich or something, $2.

01:12:36.180 When you'll sell your birthright for $2, that's sad.

01:12:39.320 But I contend those same elite organizers could go to Rodeo Drive and just change the price.

01:12:47.120 And Americans who are not struggling, they don't know what the country actually is.

01:12:53.660 They're not paying attention.

01:12:55.380 They have no, there are no connection to it.

01:12:57.360 and somebody could come up to them

01:12:59.000 as they're standing in the Ralph Lauren store

01:13:01.320 and say, hey, you like all that stuff?

01:13:04.120 I'll give you $1,000 right now.

01:13:05.780 You just vote for this.

01:13:07.320 And I'll bet you they would have the same reaction

01:13:10.620 the people that are homeless have.

01:13:13.560 So I just told you the story of Athens

01:13:15.320 and they solved it with guns.

01:13:16.520 You don't have to do that.

01:13:18.160 You just have to stand up.

01:13:20.200 Let me give you the solution, okay?

01:13:22.080 Donald Trump just tweeted,

01:13:24.000 no other president has been more committed

01:13:25.420 to rebuilding our great military

01:13:26.860 and saving our great country, and now is the time to make it happen for generations to come.

01:13:30.780 I'm hereby calling on the Republicans in Congress to immediately, capital letters,

01:13:35.140 advance and pass the forthcoming $350 billion reconciliation bill, Recon 3,

01:13:41.180 which at the request of our great Department of War will include the Save America Act as well.

01:13:47.820 No games, no delays, no weak compromises. Do this now.

01:13:52.400 This is generational investment on our military, even bigger than President Reagan's

01:13:56.200 recon 3.0 is the only path to the full 1.5 trillion dollar military budget our warriors

01:14:03.180 need in order to build the arsenal of freedom we will defend the homeland with the golden dome

01:14:08.340 launch the unstoppable golden fleet dominate the skies with f-47s and b-21s supercharge our

01:14:14.380 ammunition stockpiles and achieve total space force and drone dominance this budget reignites

01:14:20.160 american industry creates hundreds of thousands of high-paying american jobs and secures our

01:14:25.560 global dominance without fueling inflation. Also with the Save America Act, it will protect our

01:14:31.480 elections for generations to come. Our warriors protect our most sacred rights and voting is at

01:14:36.940 the top. It is time to defend that right for every American. Pass all $350 billion and the Save

01:14:43.380 America Act to secure the nation for our children and grandchildren. The Save America Act. One,

01:14:49.280 all voters must show voter ID. Two, all voters must show proof of citizenship. Three, no mail-in

01:14:57.380 ballots except for illness, disability, military, or travel. Four, no men in women's sports.

01:15:06.300 Five, no transgender mutilization surgery for our children. Thank you for your attention to this

01:15:11.600 matter, Donald J. Trump. These are all common sense things. We can argue about the military,

01:15:17.400 but I think our military, if we don't, President Trump is going to be the only one that will

01:15:22.360 rebuild our military, and it will rebuild it for generations to come. And I think that is very,

01:15:28.620 very important. Everything is about to change, and we have to be on the cutting edge. We can

01:15:33.640 argue about that one, but not the Save America Act. That's the thing that has to pass. You now

01:15:39.400 have 50 votes they don't have to they they have 50 votes pass it with 50 votes if they enact the

01:15:48.500 filibuster that is not constitutional the way they are using it now it is not constitutional

01:15:55.440 it's not in any law it is a it's a senate rule our founders were against it george washington

01:16:02.880 and Jefferson both said it is ruled by majority, not super majorities. This has to pass. You want

01:16:12.500 to stop what's happening in California, pass the Save America Act. Now, Jason has been working on

01:16:20.180 this theory, and I think he's right that this is what's happening in California is a Rosetta Stone.

01:16:24.720 It is letting everyone see exactly what they've been planning and how they're doing it. And they're

01:16:32.320 just putting it out on the table now they're letting everybody see and he thinks it's going

01:16:37.140 to be their undoing i do too jason yeah i you know when you think about the rosetta stone we've

01:16:42.940 talked about this all week but you know it was the arrogance of the king of egypt that basically

01:16:47.560 allowed uh researchers to be able to translate egyptian hieroglyphics the arrogance as seen 0.71

01:16:54.020 through california on what happens when you have these ridiculous blue state election laws

01:16:59.620 i i truly believe that we have reached a tipping point we have reached that you know i am not going 0.62

01:17:06.560 to put up with how arrogant you are on this anymore i was just watching a podcast with

01:17:10.440 jillian uh jillian anderson no not jillian anderson uh michaels jillian michaels yeah 0.54

01:17:15.040 with jillian michaels where she was saying the exact same thing she said before when she heard

01:17:20.440 things about stolen elections all that stuff you know in 2020 uh everyone thought he was crazy

01:17:25.200 now she's saying look now i'm looking at these election laws in a completely different light

01:17:29.280 I think that is going to spread.

01:17:31.500 I don't think you could pass a reconciliation

01:17:32.940 with everything he said before pre-California. 1.00

01:17:37.480 Post-California, I think you would be an idiot 1.00

01:17:40.360 not to support this. 1.00

01:17:43.920 So you said you were reading scriptures this morning.

01:17:48.620 Yeah, stuck out right in my head.

01:17:52.120 Proverbs 16, 18, pride goeth before destruction

01:17:55.200 and a haughty spirit before a fall.

01:17:58.560 How does that not explain today, Glenn?

01:18:02.000 So I told you when you told me that this morning,

01:18:05.080 we were praying in our meeting, which we always do,

01:18:07.280 and you brought this up,

01:18:08.300 the scriptures that you wanted to talk about that.

01:18:10.880 And you said, I think this is their arrogance gonna fall.

01:18:15.640 I've told this story maybe a couple of times before.

01:18:20.760 And I remember in 2009 or 10,

01:18:25.120 when everyone was after me.

01:18:27.340 I mean, it was funny. I was just talking to, who was it? I can't remember, but a big name in

01:18:36.300 journalism on our side. And they said, Glenn, they trained on you. You were the first one

01:18:44.180 that they used everything to see what would work. Cheryl Atkinson wrote a book about it. I'm the

01:18:50.820 first chapter. And she was like, he's the guinea pig. And I was surrounded and nobody knew how

01:18:57.160 this was happening. I did. We were doing our research too. It was Media Matters. It was

01:19:03.060 the Soros Foundation, Tides Foundation, all these NGOs, but nobody had ever seen it. So nobody

01:19:08.720 knew it. So I would say that and people would go, yeah, yeah, right, dude. It's kind of like

01:19:14.600 what you said about stealing the election. Well, now it's all out. And I was praying so hard because

01:19:22.060 it was really, it was touch and go. I didn't know if we would survive. And I'm praying and I'm like,

01:19:28.860 Lord, help me. How do I destroy my enemies? Help me, help me, help me. And in one of the clearest

01:19:36.140 rebukes I have had, I've had a couple of rebukes from him and they were really clear. Boy, he will,

01:19:41.560 he loves to rebuke me um but uh i'm praying and it was so clear and it was almost said

01:19:50.180 it wasn't angry he doesn't seem to be angry ever with me but um but he is very clear it's kind of

01:19:57.780 like when your dad would say something you'd be like okay don't mess with dad okay dad whatever

01:20:01.620 you say um the first thing he said was these are not enemies of yours they are enemies of mine

01:20:10.940 and i was like okay okay okay my arrogance thinking they're my enemies they're not they're

01:20:19.720 enemies of his and he'll deal with them we're just so supposed to do what we're supposed to do

01:20:25.160 what he was saying to me i've interpreted it as glenn just do what i ask you to do

01:20:31.420 forget about your enemies because they're not yours they're mine i will deal with them in the

01:20:37.820 end. You may be a casualty, but I will deal with them. I have a plan. Okay, the next thing he said

01:20:47.580 was, and in their arrogance, they shall fail. I have held on to that for 15 years, waiting to see,

01:20:59.520 and it is so true. They get more and more arrogant. They pull their mask off, and they're like, yeah,

01:21:07.220 well we are marxists yeah well we do believe in mutilation of your children yeah well we are we

01:21:13.980 are just making cheating legal now so you can't do anything about it they are so they want to mock 0.52

01:21:23.260 you they want to tell you how superior they are that's the arrogance and that is and so what you

01:21:33.440 read today in scriptures and it struck you, I can testify to you. That's what I heard in my prayers

01:21:40.340 15 years ago. And I've been watching it happen. And that is how it's going to end. We have to be

01:21:48.900 humble enough to recognize it. We have to be humble enough not to go after vengeance or

01:21:55.140 compromise ourselves. That's why I hesitated to tell you that story about Athens because it

01:22:02.340 involves people going and getting guns. We do that. We're done. We're done. He has a plan.

01:22:09.040 He has a plan. We're just required to do what we're supposed to do. And that is expose it and

01:22:15.380 stand. So when the president says, pass the Save America Act, that's what we should be concentrating

01:22:23.400 on. And I know you're tired. No, you think it's not going to happen, but things are changing.

01:22:28.320 Pass the Save America Act.

01:22:31.280 You should be online all day for the next few.

01:22:35.380 Get the Republicans to pass the Save America Act. 0.84

01:22:38.680 Susan Collins just flipped, so they have 50 votes now.

01:22:41.720 And they'll say, well, we don't know if we have, you know, 60.

01:22:44.620 Well, you don't need 60.

01:22:46.040 Take the first step.

01:22:47.600 Pass it with 50.

01:22:49.240 Pass it.

01:22:50.500 All right, more in just a second.

01:22:52.000 Let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.

01:22:53.980 I'm betting that you keep a spare tire in your car.

01:22:56.520 You may never actually use it.

01:22:58.400 In fact, you probably won't.

01:22:59.880 But if you ever do, you're glad that it's there, right?

01:23:02.720 That's the thing about preparation.

01:23:04.380 When you do it, it feels unnecessary.

01:23:06.640 But then suddenly, it's the smartest decision you've ever made.

01:23:10.540 That's true whether you're talking about a flat tire, a fire extinguisher,

01:23:14.220 or having essentials that you need.

01:23:15.840 If you ever have to leave home in a hurry and you have to survive,

01:23:19.080 if things ever break down and you don't have food in the house,

01:23:21.980 you've got it because you're prepared.

01:24:09.200 Glenn Beck.

01:24:10.320 there's something exhausting about the way everything today has to come with some sort

01:24:24.040 of a crazy gimmick attached to it every product needs a backflip and a laser show and a celebrity

01:24:29.880 endorsement or some ridiculous story about how it's disrupting the space it's honestly pretty

01:24:35.300 exhausting at this point and sometimes you just want something that's good because it's actually

01:24:39.760 good. And that's what Flying Ace Straight Bourbon is. It's not trying to reinvent bourbon. It's not

01:24:45.740 trying to turn it into some science project. It's just a really solid, well-crafted bourbon that

01:24:51.080 delivers the way that you want it to. You get those classic notes you expect, the caramel and

01:24:55.780 the vanilla, the toasted spice. But there's real depth to it too, because it's made from a blend

01:25:00.940 of carefully aged bourbons selected for flavor. This result is a smooth, balanced, and bold result

01:26:00.600 You know, it's amazing to me that the left is so, well, so arrogant.

01:26:06.620 And so democracy dies in the darkness, and yet they're counting the votes in the darkness.

01:26:13.460 They're counting the votes and making it as opaque as possible.

01:26:17.840 Let's look at something else.

01:26:19.760 Let's look at the assassination attempt on President Trump's life in Butler, Pennsylvania.

01:26:26.100 Do you feel comfortable that that's been solved?

01:26:29.060 Do you feel comfortable we know everything?

01:26:30.740 You know, Judicial Watch has been a group that I've trusted for a very long time.

01:26:37.140 They file FOIAs and they get them.

01:26:39.240 And they have exposed so much over my lifetime.

01:26:44.800 Tom Fitton is going to join us in a minute because he says the government is covering something up.

01:26:50.700 And I've been following this story kind of halfway.

01:26:54.100 And I want him to explain it to me and to you as well.

01:26:57.680 Because he's kind of in a fight with the FBI.

01:27:00.740 and you know i don't i don't think uh patel is a bad guy um but why is he fighting and they're

01:27:09.180 openly fighting with each other what's really going on behind butler pennsylvania next

01:29:12.220 Hello, America.

01:29:14.040 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:29:15.840 It's Thursday.

01:29:16.760 I want to talk to you about sunshine.

01:29:21.500 time. The exposing of everything into the light, that is the best disinfectant. We know that.

01:29:28.500 We're having this problem in California with a vote, but we're also having this problem on so

01:29:32.900 many other things. And one of them is the assassination attempt in Butler on Donald Trump.

01:29:39.920 I don't know what the truth is. I don't know if something is being hidden, but I don't like it

01:29:45.620 when we can request through FOIA, the Freedom of Information Act, and a government stonewalls.

01:29:52.740 When a government is stonewalling information, that tells you something.

01:29:57.060 There's something wrong here.

01:29:59.180 Well, Tom Fitton is a president of Judicial Watch,

01:30:01.820 and I have been watching these people since the Clinton scandals back in the 90s.

01:30:06.040 And they have always been on the side of right.

01:30:08.460 They have solved so many problems.

01:30:10.840 They have exposed so much corruption over the years.

01:30:13.700 but this time they're going after the FBI

01:30:17.200 they're just wanting some information

01:30:19.220 they've filed FOIA requests

01:30:21.060 and the FBI is stonewalling them

01:30:23.320 now Tom Fitton and Kash Patel

01:30:27.320 who I also think is a good guy

01:30:28.960 they are back and forth at each other's throats

01:30:32.660 and I don't understand it

01:30:33.940 I don't understand what is going on here

01:30:36.660 I think there's a problem

01:30:39.120 that we're not allowed to see here

01:30:42.160 on what was going on in Butler, Pennsylvania.

01:30:44.900 I don't know what the truth is,

01:30:46.720 but I trust Judicial Watch is at least,

01:30:49.360 they know at least the right questions to ask.

01:30:52.040 And the powers to be don't like the questions being asked.

01:30:56.200 That tells you something.

01:30:57.740 Tom Fitton is here to explain all of it

01:30:59.620 and give us perspective

01:31:01.200 and perhaps engage us in the fight as well,

01:31:05.900 because this is really important.

01:31:07.840 I just don't trust the Secret Service.

01:31:09.940 Sorry, I just don't.

01:31:11.020 something's wrong here. Tom Fitton joins me in 60 seconds. First, let me talk to you about

01:31:16.500 Patriot Mobile. No matter how many things come up during the midterms, you know, especially if

01:31:22.460 things don't go well, things are going to be coming up. Our fight against what the left stands

01:31:27.540 for is nowhere near behind us. Politics is downstream from culture and culture is downstream

01:31:33.860 from institutions and institutions are built and sustained by people who show up every day

01:31:38.840 and support what they believe in.

01:31:41.000 That's why I appreciate companies like Patriot Mobile

01:31:43.180 because they understand

01:31:44.300 this isn't just about providing cell phone service.

01:31:47.020 It's about building the kind of parallel economy

01:31:49.100 we've been talking about for years that is crucial.

01:31:52.220 An economy where your money isn't being used

01:31:54.220 to advance the values you don't share.

01:31:56.760 Where companies aren't ashamed to stand for faith

01:31:58.860 and family and freedom and the sanctity of life

01:32:01.000 and the constitutional principles

01:32:02.440 that made this country great.

01:32:04.620 Patriot Mobile now offering nationwide coverage

01:32:06.520 on all three major networks

01:32:07.900 along with U.S.-based customer service.

01:32:09.900 So no matter what happens next,

01:32:11.780 the work of preserving our country we love will continue

01:32:14.820 because they take a lot of their money

01:32:17.620 and spend millions of dollars of their profits

01:32:20.760 on supporting the values and the fights that we're all in.

01:32:37.900 Tom, welcome to the program.

01:32:41.580 I am confused by this story.

01:32:44.600 Great.

01:32:44.820 Can you tell me exactly what's going on?

01:32:48.680 So the president was nearly killed about two years ago.

01:32:52.520 And we asked the FBI for documents about the investigation.

01:32:57.500 They didn't give us anything.

01:32:59.260 We finally sued last year.

01:33:01.560 They started giving us a few documents a month beginning this year,

01:33:06.040 telling us they had 75 total they needed to review.

01:33:12.220 We got some interesting materials showing, for instance,

01:33:14.760 that the shooter got into an argument with Trump supporters

01:33:18.640 then immediately went up on the roof.

01:33:22.500 I didn't know that, did you?

01:33:25.140 No, I didn't.

01:33:26.440 What was the argument? What happened?

01:33:28.180 Well, he was, according to the witness who talked to the FBI,

01:33:32.120 he was uh making uh derogatory comments about trump either on the phone or recording on the

01:33:40.960 phone while he was doing it and other people talked about arguing with him as well and then

01:33:46.300 he went up on the roof and a few minutes later shot the president um and so we got a new batch

01:33:53.020 of documents recently and the documents essentially said they were heavily redacted there were just

01:33:58.840 48 pages. They had hundreds they withheld completely. And they said that here's a list

01:34:04.560 of interview subjects, including Butler deputies that we talked to. And the next page was literally

01:34:11.240 a blacked out document suggesting that the communication with Crooks occurred two emails

01:34:17.860 before the shooting. And it made it look like deputies said, you know, it was with the deputy.

01:34:23.320 So we reported that out. FBI sends out a tweet saying it's a lie, it's clickbait, we're fake news, we're a laughingstock, because it turned out the underlying email, according to them, and I don't have any reason to disbelieve them, was that he had emailed his instructor and the FBI talked to him it wasn't a deputy.

01:34:48.320 and we're like okay well that's fine why are you calling us a liar we'll fix it and we did fix it

01:34:54.920 and by the way why we got in the 75 000 pages why did you withhold that information initially from

01:35:01.660 us etc etc at the rate they're releasing the records on the butler investigation

01:35:07.020 it baron trump will be president before we get them off and you know so 75 000 isn't a lot for

01:35:15.740 the government to review especially when you're erring on the side of transparency which they are

01:35:20.100 not so when i saw the response from the fbi i like cash patel i don't think he's covering up for

01:35:29.100 you know somebody trying to kill i don't know what's happening i don't know what's happening

01:35:32.800 but i don't think he's a bad guy and i know who you are and i know what judicial watch has been

01:35:37.880 has done and i don't know anybody who is a conservative who doesn't look at judicial

01:35:43.180 watch and go, thank God they've been there several times. So when I saw, you know, they're liars, 0.88

01:35:48.860 it's clickbait. I was just really confused. I'm like, wait, why are these two suddenly enemies?

01:35:56.640 It's one thing. I mean, first of all, if you will release something about me, I would pick up the

01:36:02.620 phone and I would call you and I'd say, Tom, what are you doing? That's not, and we'd have a

01:36:06.480 conversation first. If you chose not to change it or correct it, then I would come out and say,

01:36:11.460 I don't know what's happened to Tom at Judicial Watch, but, you know, they're lying about this.

01:36:15.160 And I just talked to Tom about it.

01:36:16.540 Did you get a call from them?

01:36:18.000 Was there any?

01:36:19.380 Because you're not an enemy of the conservative movement.

01:36:25.040 No, I mean, you know, we have it's a FOIA lawsuit.

01:36:27.460 We, you know, we get documents and we say people what we think is in them based on our experience.

01:36:33.220 Right.

01:36:34.060 And they said, you know, you know, no one came to us and said that's wrong or here's more information.

01:36:39.740 By the way, they still haven't given us the backup information for what they say.

01:36:43.980 I presume they may have given it to a reporter, but that doesn't mean anything to us from a legal perspective.

01:36:50.680 But we updated the press release.

01:36:52.780 He hasn't taken down the tweet.

01:36:54.580 It's juvenile.

01:36:55.980 It's unprofessional.

01:36:58.680 And I tell you, you say, what's going on?

01:37:01.660 Nothing's going on with us.

01:37:03.120 We sue the government when they don't give us documents.

01:37:05.700 And we don't understand why in this day and age under President Trump, we're still getting stonewalled.

01:37:12.680 You know, there's no public official who works for Trump who wants to hear that from us.

01:37:16.660 But it doesn't mean you call me a liar, call Judicial Watch a liar.

01:37:21.500 And, you know, I'm trying to figure out how election could be being stolen right now in California or ruined or otherwise.

01:37:29.360 And then I have the FBI director, you know, making our lives miserable by making false statements about us and promoting them.

01:37:40.860 Okay, so what do the documents that you have, what do they tell us about the shooter or the investigation or the assassination attempt?

01:37:51.160 What new questions are there?

01:37:53.480 What do you think you're looking for?

01:37:57.740 And what have you found so far?

01:38:01.540 You know, our view is that we don't want to prejudge what went on in terms of the investigation or such.

01:38:08.340 We just want to know what the investigation uncover.

01:38:12.500 Are there other questions that need to be pursued?

01:38:15.260 You know, it's pretty rare that when a president is nearly murdered.

01:38:18.740 Certainly there was an innocent who was murdered that day.

01:38:21.860 And it was a complete failure by the Secret Service.

01:38:24.500 I don't know what the FBI's involvement was in that security failure under President Biden.

01:38:30.440 But, you know, I think these documents might illustrate that.

01:38:33.820 Are there leads that weren't followed?

01:38:36.220 For example, in the documents we received, there are, I think, two instances of witnesses saying, you know, this car zoomed away.

01:38:46.160 Another car zoomed away.

01:38:48.060 And they thought it was significant enough to share with the FBI.

01:38:51.040 There's no further information as to what was done with that information.

01:38:54.500 but that's curious. And then of course we have, you know,

01:38:58.240 a further confirmation of the security failures where there is a,

01:39:02.720 where there's a,

01:39:03.940 a confrontation between the shooter and Trump supporters and he goes,

01:39:11.460 climbs up on the roof and evidently there's no security anywhere that paid

01:39:16.500 attention to that or noticed it.

01:39:18.060 uh what is the thing about the what is the thing about he had something in his pocket and it had

01:39:25.920 a little antenna on it or what's that yeah i don't i don't know what that is was it a bomb device i

01:39:32.220 mean there's some evidence that there was talk of a you know potential bomb device that was

01:39:37.960 attached to a car attached to him uh or linked to him but you know i don't know the detail of that

01:39:44.240 And this is the sort of thing it's like, well, tell us, you know, give us the documents and the documents are what they are.

01:39:50.860 And if we're misinterpreting them because of something you hid from us, well, unhide it and we'll fix the record, which is what we're trying to do.

01:40:00.180 So, you know, my question is, why is it we've waited two years to get these documents?

01:40:06.380 Why are you still rolling them out?

01:40:08.940 And instead of focusing on getting more information and more transparency, so issues like this don't arise where we completely misread something because it's something that that could have been produced, wasn't produced.

01:40:21.020 Let's just get it all out.

01:40:22.460 As far as I'm concerned, they should be redacting nothing for practical purposes.

01:40:27.900 Nothing.

01:40:28.800 If you talk to the FBI, I want to know your name.

01:40:33.280 In the shooting investigation of President Trump.

01:40:36.380 I don't see why the public doesn't have an interest in the names of witnesses there that day.

01:40:42.720 You know, this is the sort of thing we're fighting or or, you know, and they have all sorts of reasons for holding material and keeping it secret.

01:40:50.380 And I encourage your listeners to go to our website. They can look easily at the documents I'm talking about, the prior documents we released and see if they're satisfied with the level of disclosure by this FBI under Cash Patel.

01:41:03.780 so um i've talked to the president about this briefly because he does not like talking about

01:41:13.140 it he is you know he's a speak it and it becomes kind of guy and so he does not like talking about

01:41:20.400 it and i have gotten mixed signals from him i have gotten signals i would like to know and my

01:41:26.040 feeling is i can't quote anything from anybody or but my feeling is his family does not believe

01:41:34.140 uh that they have enough information on this and they they are my feeling again is that they are

01:41:42.660 concerned as much as i am about his security that there's something wrong um but he will always say

01:41:50.220 Nope, I'm happy with everything.

01:41:53.500 Have you talked to the president about any of this?

01:41:57.640 Yeah, I can't say one word, but let me tell you what I think about the security.

01:42:03.060 I live here in D.C., and if I could, I would go down and sit with the president 24-7 to try to protect him.

01:42:12.660 I'm so worried about him.

01:42:14.980 I don't think he's secure enough, given the Secret Service protection.

01:42:18.500 I mean, the proof is in the pudding, right? He's had nearly three assassination attempts, two of which got, you know, really close to him. Obviously, he was shot once. And do I think the Secret Service is up to the task? I don't think there's any demonstrated record they are.

01:42:35.840 And I'm extremely nervous about it.

01:42:39.600 And that's one of the reasons I'm kind of very interested in what went on in Butler, because I want to know what went on.

01:42:46.220 So there's at least ability for some public pressure to have some fixes that haven't been applied yet.

01:42:52.680 I don't think Congress has looked into this sufficiently.

01:42:56.920 And I understand the president.

01:42:58.520 You know, he's got the Secret Service around him.

01:43:00.420 What is he going to be doing, yelling and kind of yelling?

01:43:03.540 you know depressing the morale of the guys who are protecting him now you know he's he's got a

01:43:10.460 lot on his plate and it's up to us frankly to kind of police the agencies as well because we don't

01:43:16.980 want our president or his family or other innocents hurt again and it's it's a i think these are

01:43:22.600 dangerous times and my instinct is with the fbi given the crazy response by cash and his people

01:43:29.620 that there's something in the record

01:43:34.840 that makes the FBI look bad

01:43:36.500 in the way they handle the investigation

01:43:38.700 or other issues that we don't know about.

01:43:42.780 But he wasn't there.

01:43:43.400 I mean, I don't...

01:43:45.080 But Cash wasn't there,

01:43:46.480 but everyone else at the FBI likely was

01:43:49.040 in terms of, you know,

01:43:53.020 there are only a few thousand people

01:43:54.700 who've retired since Cash came on.

01:43:56.500 He's only fired about 140 people.

01:43:59.500 I mean, he's got a handful of people that are his people, everyone else or career.

01:44:04.460 So institutionally, the FBI protects itself.

01:44:07.920 And I don't know if that's the answer or the reason.

01:44:10.560 But, you know, you ask why it's like, well, I don't know.

01:44:13.500 It's not an issue from us.

01:44:14.980 We're used to suing administrations, even administrations putatively friendly to us.

01:44:20.160 So the president's a friend of mine.

01:44:21.820 You know, there's probably no one suing the administration more than me.

01:44:25.960 So I know what I know what you know how to do this. Cash doesn't I don't understand what cash's issue is. And, you know, in irrespective of that, I don't care what his personal issue is with Judicial Watch. He can't call us the liar. He can't misuse or allow his agencies, his agency to miss you to be misused to attack us.

01:44:47.500 And secondly, he's got an obligation to follow the law to release the records under law.

01:44:54.380 We have a lawsuit now, Glenn.

01:44:56.300 You know why we have a lawsuit?

01:44:57.760 Because they're not following the law.

01:45:00.160 So right now, the FBI and the Justice Department aren't following the law and transparency on this assassination attempt of Trump.

01:45:08.920 And they're holding documents back from us and slow rolling documents back from us that could document how the FBI and or the Secret Service really screwed up the protection of Trump under Biden.

01:45:23.080 And I think Biden, I think the lack of security was purposeful. And I don't understand what the other than like the institutional inertia that we just can't let bad stuff get out about the agencies, no matter who's running.

01:45:38.920 huge mistake. Um, Tom, thank you. I mean, I don't know. I mean, maybe we should have,

01:45:43.180 maybe you should run a therapy session between, you know, for cash and me, but you know, I don't

01:45:49.220 care. You know, I, I just don't want me and my people attacked like this. It's dangerous these

01:45:53.960 days to have the FBI say things like that about you. That's dangerous. That's a dangerous smear.

01:46:01.100 Thank you for appearing on the program. Thank you for all the work that you guys have done

01:46:04.580 and are doing keep it up judicial watch.org they can always use your support judicial watch uh dot

01:46:11.460 org uh we'll be following um this all right more in just a second the preciousness of life isn't

01:46:17.900 something you you know only have to convince expecting mothers of expecting fathers need to

01:46:22.860 hear it too many men uh don't feel like fathers right away um sometimes men don't feel comfortable

01:46:29.360 saying, I really think it's always deferred to the woman. And some of that is because they're

01:46:34.780 terrified of the responsibility that lands on their shoulders. The whole thing can feel a little

01:46:39.320 abstract until they hear the heartbeat, until they see an ultrasound, until they see this isn't an

01:46:44.180 idea or a future possibility. It's a child. It's one of the reasons why ultrasounds are so powerful

01:46:49.940 and why Planned Parenthood fights against them. It doesn't just change hearts. It makes it real.

01:46:56.240 That's why pre-borns work matters so much.

01:46:58.160 They provide free ultrasounds for unplanned pregnancies,

01:47:00.560 giving parents a chance to see life that's growing before them.

01:47:03.760 And today, you can help another father experience

01:47:05.700 that same call to satisfaction of ultimate responsibility.

01:47:10.020 For $28, you can sponsor an ultrasound through a pre-born

01:47:12.740 and help an expectant parent see the future filled with life,

01:47:15.660 compassion, and the hope of God's love.

01:47:41.100 Jason and Ricky, I want to bring you guys in on this.

01:47:44.020 What do you think is happening?

01:47:45.720 What is happening here?

01:47:49.640 His comment on personally protecting the president of the United States

01:47:53.560 was very powerful because that was clearly directly from his heart he truly believes that

01:47:58.880 and judicial watch and tom fitner is straight up warriors and i i i i feel i i feel their

01:48:05.960 frustration and i feel their concern because i i've personally been involved as you know with

01:48:11.700 multiple high level including politicians some of their protection protective details glenn i can't

01:48:17.320 explain some of the things that i've seen with some of these multiple assassination attempts i

01:48:22.160 just cannot explain it i don't know what is happening um with the secret service with some

01:48:27.500 of these protective details but i do not like it and i think there's a lot of questions that need

01:48:32.140 to be asked and answered i don't think that cash is trying to protect the long-standing institution

01:48:39.060 of the fbi or the deep state i do think that cash is trying to protect himself i can't even imagine

01:48:45.360 what it's like trying to navigate um the deep state coming from the outside in no one wants

01:48:51.980 him there and i have to imagine that he's in survival mode um we'll never know the truth

01:48:58.720 about what actually goes on with the people that are remaining from the obama and biden

01:49:04.360 administrations that are still on staff it it's a huge black black box um to to the point about

01:49:11.080 president trump telling the people he's not worried about his safety he will never admit

01:49:16.520 vulnerability you know this glenn never i think he's putting on a brave face for himself for the

01:49:21.720 institution of the secret service he has to he he has to and he also has to keep saying i believe

01:49:28.520 in the people around me you can't demoralize them uh i mean he's in a really bad that's why it's it's

01:49:33.960 our responsibility to do the work that you know he is boxed out of i think in many ways and please

01:51:35.780 story this month find it at torch 250.com I want to revisit something that I started the show with

01:51:43.940 with today, and that is what the president announced yesterday. And just kind of in the

01:51:52.160 press conference, somebody asked him about inflation, and he said, this is what you probably

01:51:57.060 heard from the mainstream media. I love inflation. Well, that's what the president said. He loves

01:52:02.260 inflation. He doesn't care about the American people. No, he said, I love the inflation thing

01:52:08.180 because when this war is over, you're going to, and then he went on.

01:52:12.720 And what did he say about that?

01:52:15.380 When this war is over, he said, in fact, it gives me an opportunity to tell you something

01:52:21.860 we've been doing that nobody has known about.

01:52:24.820 Why is gas coming down when things don't seem to be getting better, right?

01:52:30.980 You've been hearing, even people who have supported the president in this war, me included,

01:52:38.180 I have been privately thinking, Mr. President, what are you doing?

01:52:42.660 What are you doing?

01:52:43.180 What is the plan?

01:52:43.860 What is the plan?

01:52:45.700 Well, I said at the beginning of this, trust him.

01:52:49.500 He does have a plan.

01:52:51.640 I don't necessarily understand it, but he does have a plan.

01:52:54.720 He's a builder.

01:52:55.600 He's not like every other president who is a lawyer.

01:52:58.320 Lawyers don't build anything.

01:52:59.600 They don't have vision.

01:53:00.580 They protect, okay?

01:53:01.960 The president has vision, and it's America first.

01:53:05.360 And so what is his plan here?

01:53:08.960 And I didn't know it until he said yesterday,

01:53:11.800 we have taken 100 million barrels out from underneath their nose

01:53:16.280 and nobody has even seen it.

01:53:18.200 We've done it in the cover of darkness.

01:53:19.960 We've taken all of those ships that are filled with oil,

01:53:25.200 100 million barrels filled with oil,

01:53:28.160 and we have turned their transponders off.

01:53:31.020 And in the cover of darkness through a military operation,

01:53:33.940 Nobody really knows how this has been done yet.

01:53:37.020 We have escorted them out in the middle of the night because they've destroyed the radar of Iran so they couldn't see these things.

01:53:44.280 They move them out. 0.99

01:53:45.220 They get them to Oman. 1.00

01:53:46.320 They empty them.

01:53:47.580 They put them into another oil tanker.

01:53:50.520 Those oil tankers then go ship them to wherever they're supposed to go, and the empty ones go back.

01:53:56.300 So in the morning, they're sitting right where they were, and everybody thinks they're full of oil, and they're not full of oil. 0.90

01:54:02.440 That's why oil, I mean, you have to understand the miracle of taking on Iran and it going so poorly.

01:54:10.120 That's what everybody says, so poorly.

01:54:12.380 And yet oil yesterday before this announcement was at $86 a barrel.

01:54:18.440 Every expert will tell you if we take on Iran and they shut down the Strait of Hormuz, that oil will be at $150 to $250 a barrel.

01:54:29.620 In this whole thing, on our worst day, it was $112 a barrel.

01:54:35.860 How?

01:54:37.240 Well, we find out he's been smuggling oil out and been getting it out.

01:54:41.740 That's why it was $86 a barrel.

01:54:43.540 And this morning when I got up, it was $80 a barrel.

01:54:46.980 That's miraculous, miraculous.

01:54:48.980 And it just shows the president is moving forward and has a plan.

01:54:55.840 And I explained the three reasons why I think he said this.

01:54:59.260 yesterday, earlier on the show. If you missed it, make sure you go to glennbeck.com slash

01:55:05.120 Torch, become a member, and you can watch it, or you can also get it wherever you get your

01:55:09.540 podcast today, but it's in hour one, and I think it's worth listening to. The other thing is,

01:55:15.640 I want to talk to, I want to do something that I don't think anybody, I think we've forgotten how

01:55:20.780 to do it, which is to actually have a sane argument and to have a discussion or an argument

01:55:29.200 that remains civil and makes progress, you have to understand the other side's argument and then

01:55:37.000 build it up as strong as they do before you say anything against it. You have to prove that you

01:55:42.660 understand the argument. And the argument is this, war with Iran is not America first. And I've heard

01:55:48.960 this over and over again. And a lot of people, even in my audience, believe it. And I'm not

01:55:54.460 going to insult you by pretending that your case is stupid because it's not stupid. It is serious. 1.00

01:55:59.900 So let me first try to make it for you as well as I can. And if I get it wrong, please let me know.

01:56:05.660 But as I understand, America first means exactly what it says. American lives, American treasure,

01:56:13.400 American interest first. Now, you run that past the last 25 years plus, and you look through that

01:56:20.840 lens, and the ledger on that is brutal. By Brown University's accounting, the wars launched after

01:56:27.080 9-11 has cost this country somewhere around $8 trillion. $8 trillion. The Iraq war alone was

01:56:36.740 two and a half trillion and 4,599 Americans dead, fathers, sons, daughters. And what did we get?

01:56:45.400 Nothing. We were promised quick, clean, self-financing liberation. No, we got a decade

01:56:52.160 of funerals and power vacuum that ISIS walked right into. Same class of experts who sold us 1.00

01:56:58.160 that war, who were so certain and so wrong, never paid a dime for it. And they're the same voices

01:57:04.900 that are telling us to trust them on Afghanistan and the exit,

01:57:10.220 which we got nothing out of, and now this one too.

01:57:14.840 So, you know, you hired Donald Trump.

01:57:18.040 I'm still arguing the other side.

01:57:20.220 Donald Trump, you hired Donald Trump because he was against war.

01:57:22.600 You know that. I know that. He hates war.

01:57:25.580 And so the non-interventionalists said,

01:57:27.660 why on God's green earth would I go for another war?

01:57:30.640 A war with Iran means dead Americans, gas prices through the roof, risk of dragging in Russia and China, a region we're going to be babysitting for another generation. 0.89

01:57:41.100 And then you point to the Constitution and you say, this is Congress's call. 0.95

01:57:46.080 Not a thing the president is supposed to decide.

01:57:50.160 And all of that argument starts with a slogan, where is America first in any of that?

01:57:57.540 That's the argument.

01:57:58.560 and said plainly it carries real weight it deserves real respect and a real response

01:58:05.200 so i hope i've gotten the argument correct let me respond to it the trouble with the phase

01:58:14.080 of the phrase america first is that everybody treats it like it's the end of the conversation

01:58:20.040 it's not it's the beginning of the conversation well it's america first well okay wait a minute

01:58:27.320 America first is a question.

01:58:29.460 It's not an answer.

01:58:30.520 It's a question.

01:58:31.740 It tells you whose interest to weigh, but it doesn't tell you what the answer is.

01:58:37.620 Sometimes putting America first means staying out. 0.88

01:58:41.640 Iraq, that one was carved for us in blood. 1.00

01:58:45.760 No, stay out. 0.96

01:58:47.260 But sometimes America first means a regime that chants death to the U.S. 0.58

01:58:52.660 can't be allowed to set a nuclear warhead on top of its missiles

01:58:56.700 because some things, once they happen, can't be contained or taken back

01:59:00.500 and the price of acting too late gets paid in cities.

01:59:05.260 So both of those are America first.

01:59:08.020 And everyone would agree except on timing

01:59:10.840 because what they'll say is, well, we didn't need to.

01:59:15.440 We've been saying that for a long time.

01:59:17.140 Yes, but that's opinion, okay?

01:59:19.700 If everybody was clear and we had found a nuclear missile that could travel to America and it had the nuclear warhead on it and we caught it just as they were about to launch it, no one would argue that's America first.

01:59:35.280 So it's just timing.

01:59:36.920 It's just timing.

01:59:38.580 And execution.

01:59:41.160 The slogan doesn't choose between them.

01:59:43.540 Only the facts do.

01:59:44.700 so neither side can hide behind america america first okay if you want this war the burden is on

01:59:53.620 you and it's a crushing burden and you don't get a wave of flag and skip it say america first

01:59:59.380 same with the other side you have to show the threat is real and imminent and and that everything

02:00:05.440 short of war has actually been tried and failed you have to carry it to congress and make the

02:00:10.380 case to the American people in the daylight, the way the Constitution demands. You have to look

02:00:15.440 the mother of a 19-year-old in the eye and tell her exactly what her boy is going to die for

02:00:21.140 and why it had to be him. And anyone who can't clear that bar has not earned the right to start

02:00:28.200 a war. That should be the standard. That's not hawk. That's not dove. America first is not a 0.92

02:00:35.600 costume you throw on to win the argument. It's a question that you're obligated to actually

02:00:42.340 answer. So you have to answer it. I believe in my monologues over the last couple of months,

02:00:52.900 I have answered that question because that's where I started. Is this even in our best interest?

02:00:58.260 This is suicide. Oil could be $150 to $250 a barrel. That will collapse the West.

02:01:07.080 How do you win against people who have, they're in a death cult. They think if they die, it will

02:01:13.960 still go for the glory of God and everything else. And they believe that they are hastening

02:01:19.700 the return of the promised one, which is in Christian speak, the hastening of the end times.

02:01:26.560 you can't negotiate with these people i have not been able to see how this thing ends

02:01:33.000 but i am also not the guy in charge and i believe that when we hire a president to do something

02:01:41.020 and you fought as hard as you fought for this president did you this is something i've always

02:01:48.600 hated you know i've i've done this job for a very long time 50 years next year i've done this job

02:01:54.800 and I always hated when I was younger people who'd hire me I love your show I just think it's great

02:02:02.020 and then they'd hire me and I'd get there and they go I love your show I love everything you do

02:02:06.580 now change all of it you're like wait why don't you just do it then we hire somebody in the role

02:02:13.920 of president and especially when it's been fought as hard as this did you mean the things you said

02:02:20.660 about the president? Did you believe that he was actually putting you first? Or was that just

02:02:28.100 something that you kind of believed or didn't believe, but you wanted to believe? Because I

02:02:34.560 actually did my homework and I believe, I don't agree with him on everything, but I believe he

02:02:39.720 has America's interest first. I believe he hates war. However, he also understands like nuclear

02:02:48.920 war can never be fought. And so there might be times that we have to stop it beforehand.

02:02:55.940 I know he hates these continuous wars. I also know that he's a builder. He's a guy who has

02:03:02.900 deep vision. So when everybody else is saying, he's just making this stuff up, this is where

02:03:08.160 I've had a hard time recently because I, and I've said it on the air, I don't have the information

02:03:14.140 that he has. I don't, I'm not in the meetings. I'm not hearing the planning. I'm not hearing

02:03:19.540 the secret details. I don't know what's going on, but I do trust that he does. I don't think

02:03:26.700 he's senile. I don't think he's crazy. I do believe all the things I said about him.

02:03:32.240 So what am I missing? Yesterday, he told us. Yesterday, he told us what you're missing.

02:03:39.360 guys would you please relax i have i have been working on this problem i have a plan it's not

02:03:49.340 stalled out well i wish it would have been over these guys are tough to beat but i knew they'd

02:03:55.960 be tough to beat and i knew we couldn't have 120 150 250 a barrel oil i knew that so i developed

02:04:06.680 this plan and it's working and i said at the beginning of the show you'll have to listen

02:04:11.980 because i'm out of time you'll have to listen to the first hour to get there's three reasons he

02:04:16.440 said it in my opinion i don't know this for a fact this is me guessing but i think he said that

02:04:21.940 yesterday for three possible reasons and i think actually it comes down to all three reasons are

02:04:27.820 valid um and there might be more in his book but i think this is why he said it and the most

02:04:33.260 important one I want to share with you is that he is trying to tell you, I see you. I understand

02:04:40.280 the pain of the gas pump. You need to understand nobody is broadcast there. Everybody's complaining.

02:04:47.000 You notice when Biden was, the gas prices were up. Nobody in the press was talking about gas prices.

02:04:51.840 You were, I was, but nobody in the press was talking about it. And I've, I've watched this

02:04:57.740 over 50 years. People seem to only really care about gas when the mainstream media cares about

02:05:02.340 the gas price. Notice that your gas price has gone down in Texas almost a dollar in the last

02:05:10.000 few weeks. How? How? And nobody's talking about that. I think that's one of the main reasons why

02:05:18.220 he said this yesterday. Look, I got to tell you because nobody's noticing gas is going down
