Transcript
00:00:00.000
I want to talk to you about, not the 4th of July, but Independence Day.
00:00:04.940
It's a day to celebrate the brave men who declared independence knowing that it could threaten their lives.
00:00:12.500
And to help celebrate, American Giant has created a special limited edition t-shirt that says,
00:00:21.940
American Giant founded to keep Americans working rather than allow a clothing factory to close.
00:00:28.480
The company was created and bought the manufacturing plant.
00:00:35.900
Gave people the opportunity to take pride in a hard day's work.
00:00:39.800
They started producing quality American clothing.
00:00:42.760
And you can know it every time you pick up a piece of clothing from American Giant.
00:00:48.600
Buy your limited edition, just for this audience, American Made t-shirt at American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
00:01:26.880
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:46.040
I'm going to talk about some of the news of the day.
00:01:51.920
The big stuff, Hunter Biden, what's happening with AI and the president yesterday.
00:02:00.640
A new piece of undercover video comes from James O'Keefe today.
00:02:05.100
The Pentagon found a whole bunch of buttload of money.
00:02:08.680
We're going to talk about that, but I want to put it in a historic context.
00:02:15.060
Right now, even as I'm talking to you, some poor, uninformed soul is out there at the grocery store
00:02:20.540
looking at packaged meat with an American flag on it thinking,
00:02:27.560
Actually, George Soros is taking you for a ride.
00:02:31.880
Turns out steak actually comes from a cow that, I don't know, maybe lived in France.
00:02:37.200
A cow, yes, that barely bathed ever and smoked cigarettes.
00:02:46.120
85% of grass-fed beef is imported for overseas, but not with Good Ranchers.
00:02:51.880
They source all of their high-quality beef and chicken, seafood, all from local farms, ranchers, and fishermen.
00:02:59.760
It is boxed, and when you order, Good Ranchers sends it out every box that is ordered and sent out.
00:03:14.820
So, you do good while you eat really, really well.
00:03:23.500
It is top American meat, and you are getting it at a locked-in price.
00:03:32.500
As prices of meat start to skyrocket, your price will stay the same as long as you're with Good Ranchers.
00:03:51.700
Last night, I was here until, I don't know, about 9.30 last night.
00:03:56.740
I still have the second half of the Great Reset to record for the audiobook.
00:04:06.560
And I want you to know, I make more money on the audiobook.
00:04:12.080
And the audiobook is really good and very funny.
00:04:19.860
I'm saying that because I want you to understand I have nothing to gain by saying that.
00:04:29.700
And in a digital world, you don't own the movies you, quote, bought, end quote, from Apple or Amazon or anybody else.
00:04:54.200
As they are changing books, they are engaging in Fahrenheit 451.
00:05:01.200
As you wake up one day and all this information, if it's deemed, you know, subversive or whatever, it will be gone.
00:05:11.620
I've been doing a lot of thinking as I was preparing for the museum next week.
00:05:18.900
And I want to tell you about two promises I made to God.
00:05:35.840
I had found out that I was going to be syndicated.
00:05:43.380
I didn't know much about history or anything else.
00:05:50.620
And I had already hit my absolute rock bottom about six years before.
00:05:59.160
And I know what I owe him in a way that I'll never be able to pay back.
00:06:03.800
And when September 11th happened and all of a sudden I was speaking to the nation, I got on my knees and I said, you got the wrong guy.
00:06:13.820
And I promised him and I promised you that I would do my homework.
00:06:21.560
And if I got it wrong, I would tell you I got it wrong.
00:06:26.760
Because we were going to have to learn some things together.
00:06:42.640
As I start seeing where the world is headed, I realized these people that we are dealing with are exactly what Hillary Clinton said they were.
00:07:10.180
They're the ones who taught eugenics and experimental surgeries and everything else.
00:07:18.260
And I realized through a prompting that these people will destroy all of our history.
00:07:39.700
Do you know the Declaration of Independence is no longer on the wall?
00:07:44.300
It's now down on the floor with other documents.
00:07:47.800
You don't walk up the stairs of the National Archives anymore and walk in.
00:07:55.980
You now enter from the back into the basement where they tell you what you're about to see and warn you that some of these documents are dangerous.
00:08:11.640
These people will change and destroy our history.
00:08:15.520
Last night I started working on the second half of the museum as we're packing everything up and putting it in crates and it's crazy.
00:08:24.620
I promised in 2008 that I would do everything I could to preserve our American history.
00:08:33.640
And we started with just simple things like George Washington's writings and his personal items and any of the founding documents we could get our hands on.
00:08:47.140
We now have the third largest collection in the world of founding documents up to 1829.
00:08:51.620
We're third behind the National Archives and the Library of Congress.
00:08:57.640
And most of the collection is in the side of a mountain.
00:09:06.500
And it may be a thousand years before it's found.
00:09:09.260
But like the Dead Sea Scrolls, they will survive.
00:09:18.960
This is the first time I've pulled it out, all of it, out of the vault.
00:09:23.360
And, or at least 1% of it, that's what's in the vault here.
00:09:27.760
And I've put it into, I started going through all of it.
00:09:35.680
I mean, I know we own it, but I just, I can't believe it.
00:09:46.300
I'll share some things with you later on in the program if we have time.
00:09:53.560
Now with that understanding, I want you, I have been,
00:09:57.380
I have always asked myself, how did the German people go mad?
00:10:04.740
How did you convince the German people that killing millions of people was okay?
00:10:17.100
Taking whole, whole communities and trapping them in a church and locking the door
00:10:40.100
You have to first destroy what it means to be a citizen of that country.
00:11:07.860
so they don't really know their history and they don't really know what it means to be American.
00:11:15.060
You have them fighting over the flag instead of the principles.
00:11:18.820
You have them fighting over politicians instead of the bill of rights.
00:11:26.800
You also at the same time as you're dismantling everything,
00:11:34.760
And that is a principle that has to be carefully curated over at least a decade.
00:11:46.260
Then you have to pervert and destroy their morals.
00:11:56.820
You have to destroy their churches and their morals.
00:12:20.040
you really have to destroy what they think is right.
00:12:27.160
The difference between right and wrong and destroy that.
00:12:31.820
I've been reading a couple of books on Weimar Germany.
00:12:56.540
when we get to the society being completely deconstructed and there is no more right and no more wrong.
00:13:10.900
Once you have sexual perversion and experimentation on people's bodies and,
00:13:21.920
The guy died on the table because the doctor stuffed a uterus in him.
00:13:44.160
The churches start to rise up and they start to pontificate and say,
00:14:07.980
They were preaching more of a social gospel at this point.
00:14:11.060
And the socialists weren't even started on the churches and destroying the
00:14:32.020
That was right at the end where the churches cried out and said,
00:15:00.420
And there is always somebody who has helped create the problem to stand in
00:15:14.420
This is a document that you'll see the original.
00:15:20.020
I am piecing together how these things have all happened before.
00:15:41.060
And everybody in the media wants you to dismiss it.
00:15:44.540
this is a letter from the guy who was de-Jewing the Bible.
00:15:55.540
but he was a Nazi and he was inside all of the churches.
00:15:59.180
And he was convincing them that there's too much Jewish in Christianity.
00:16:05.780
we got to squeeze the Jew out of Jesus and literally cut the first Testament out.
00:16:23.240
this is a document from Hitler that you will see the original draft on.
00:16:28.040
This is to the Russian front telling the soldiers.
00:16:31.860
how do you get soldiers to believe this is okay?
00:16:34.800
Telling the soldiers on the Russian front to rape as many Russian women as
00:16:43.540
possible and send them back as soon as they're pregnant,
00:16:53.540
500,000 new soldiers to go to war and die that aren't really German.
00:17:09.400
This you'll see the original at the museum in St.
00:17:19.540
this is a document from the head of the red cross in Germany.
00:17:28.440
It's it's there's the Nazi symbol and the red cross right on his letterhead.
00:17:32.680
You know what he was famous for telling IG Farber and the American people,
00:17:44.820
You turn everything upside down and you have public private partnerships.
00:18:02.160
How do you think they rounded up whole neighborhoods and made sure they were Jews?
00:18:31.280
we're going in this direction and they partner with you.
00:18:45.340
for their great accomplishment in producing Zyklon B.
00:18:58.360
Because I'm going to play some audio for you in a minute.
00:19:13.040
if you like pulling your car along the side of the highway,
00:19:21.840
I recommend a sturdy rope and some gloves and a really good pair of shoes,
00:19:30.160
I personally don't like it when my car breaks down and I don't care how much
00:19:45.000
You're always pissed that your car breaks down.
00:19:47.340
It never comes at a good time because we don't prepare for it.
00:20:02.100
I have it on my old trucks that are out of warranty.
00:20:04.440
And I want those things to drive until the doors fall off.
00:20:10.740
especially the big catastrophic things that happen with the,
00:20:21.800
they cover more parts and more things in your car than ever before.

I want to go down this checklist that I just made up,
00:21:02.440
as I was sitting here getting ready for the show today,
00:21:04.560
and I'm looking through all of these historic documents.
00:21:08.720
The reason why I collect all of this is to preserve the truth.
00:21:15.680
And I'm taking all of my children's money that they think I would ever leave to them.
00:21:22.680
And I am spending it all on this and it will be buried,
00:21:34.100
this will be preserved because the truth matters.
00:21:43.420
What does it take to get people to kill millions of people and think they're on the right side?
00:21:51.480
you have to forget what it means to be a citizen of your country.
00:21:58.480
You have to have your government make you mad at what's going on and keep stirring the pot.
00:22:04.620
You have to destroy and pervert their morals and their churches.
00:22:12.980
You have to destroy money and impoverish your society.
00:22:31.160
I continue and show you the audio from today that goes right with us.
00:22:43.980
I want to tell you about police officer Jeffrey Carson and his family.
00:22:58.540
And when he was on the Franklin Police Department,
00:23:10.360
the Tunnel to Towers Foundation met with his wife and their son
00:23:13.400
to let him know that they're going to be taking care of the mortgage.
00:23:16.220
It's one less thing they have to worry about now.
00:23:19.440
This kind of stuff makes a world of difference.
00:23:23.640
I don't think most people even know about Tunnel to Towers.
00:23:26.480
They made this promise to themselves after September 11th,
00:23:29.580
that they would take care of our soldiers and our first responders.
00:23:33.280
They take care of their families as best they could,

Save 10 bucks off your subscription to Blaze TV
00:24:20.000
So I want to show you some things as we look at how did this happen in the past where a society goes insane.
00:24:32.480
Well, you have to make people forget what it means to be a German, and then you have to give them all kinds of drugs, make that everything permissible and celebrated.
00:24:44.720
You have to mutilate yourself, deny reality, all of the things that were done in the Weimar Republic.
00:24:57.880
You have to impoverish the people, not necessarily the state, the people, destroy their money.
00:25:06.720
Then you have to make afraid, and you do that a couple of ways.
00:25:10.700
You do that by making things almost impossible for the person, the average person, to live by the law.
00:25:25.020
If you live by the law, well, they could change the law, or they can pervert the law, and they'll prosecute things with you that they're not prosecuting with other people.
00:25:37.500
For instance, let's say you keep a whole bunch of documents next to your Corvette, and then you keep a bunch of documents in a house in Florida.
00:25:54.400
Let's say that, Stu, you go into a gun store, and you buy a gun, and you're all hepped up on drugs, and you're selling crack and buying crack and being with hookers, and you lie about being addicted to something and having a problem with drugs on a federal gun form.
00:26:24.020
But if you're in a protected class, you don't go to jail.
00:26:43.860
Destroy and promote the churches and your children.
00:26:50.860
Make them forget what it even means to be a citizen of that country.
00:26:55.880
Then you also have to, when you're making people afraid, it can't be just on the streets, like, for instance, Hitler had his thugs.
00:27:06.600
And he always claimed, I have nothing to do with the SA, those stormtroopers, those brown shirts, I have nothing to do with them.
00:27:14.520
I'll talk to them, you know, but I can't control them until he killed them all after their usefulness was done.
00:27:26.100
They broke the windows of store owners that wouldn't put the Nazi flag in their store window.
00:27:32.540
They were the people that would make people afraid that they would either be hauled off or they would be a pariah in society.
00:27:45.460
But then you also, you can't just have inside enemies.
00:27:49.000
Okay, those who will not walk in lockstep with the government.
00:27:53.320
But you also have to have some deplorables, Jews.
00:27:57.920
You have to have some people that really are the cause of all of our problems.
00:28:01.940
But then you also have to have an outside enemy.
00:28:14.600
Because now, the red, white, and blue, or the red, black, and white, can be waved in everybody's faces.
00:28:23.040
And you have military parades, and everybody's proud.
00:28:36.500
Because there's a lot of money to be made with war.
00:28:41.300
In a completely unrelated clip of audio here, here's James O'Keefe talking to a BlackRock recruiter.
00:28:53.520
Here's the BlackRock recruiter admitting to controlling politicians.
00:28:58.360
All of these financial institutions, they buy politicians.
00:29:01.800
You can take this big f**k ton of money, and then you can start to buy people.
00:29:14.220
Let me tell you, it's not who's the president, it's who's controlling the wallet.
00:29:23.400
The hedge funds, the bank, the banks, these guys want to buy them.
00:29:40.040
He goes on to say there's a lot of money to be made in war.
00:30:00.940
You know, they used to buy way overpriced stuff, like toilet seats that were $600 in 1978.
00:30:11.080
But they've really, they've buttoned themselves up.
00:30:15.600
But for the first time in my life, they caught it, and it was in our favor.
00:30:24.480
We got, we have, we have an extra, what, three and a half billion?
00:30:32.860
So there's more money to ship off to war, which is really, really great.
00:30:42.020
But you have to have public-private partnerships, not just with the war machine, but also medicine,
00:30:57.760
That is in a papered deal with the United States of America.
00:31:04.820
Pfizer took $150 million from Bill and Melinda Gates, their shareholders in Pfizer.
00:31:12.020
Took the money to start the search for a vaccine for COVID.
00:31:17.600
And then about a month later, the United States went, yeah, we got to get involved in that too.
00:31:23.700
Now we're starting to see some things, but I'm sure this was just an error.
00:31:28.720
Cut to, here's a Pfizer rep admitting something that I didn't know.
00:31:35.020
Was the Pfizer COVID vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market?
00:31:49.880
If yes, are you willing to share the data with this committee?
00:31:53.680
And I really want a straight answer, yes or no, and I'm looking forward to it.
00:32:00.100
Regarding the question around, did we know about stopping the humanization before it entered the market?
00:32:07.600
These, you know, we had to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market.
00:32:14.200
And from that point of view, we had to do everything at risk.
00:32:19.580
I think our Dr. Boodler, even though he's not here, would turn around and say to himself, if not us, then who?
00:32:26.860
So they noticed, she said, at the speed of science.
00:32:34.640
Then you produce something to see if your theory is right.
00:32:38.980
To do that, you must do testing and you have to measure.
00:32:44.560
Then you find out through science if your theory is correct.
00:32:55.300
You're almost working at the speed of alchemy or the speed of arrogance, but definitely not science if you didn't take the time to measure things.
00:33:09.140
Is it alchemy when you then round up people or shut people up or destroy their lives when they say, hey, did you measure this?
00:33:18.460
By the way, the guy who asked that question in the European Parliament is going to be on with us here in studio in about 15 minutes.
00:33:27.620
The last thing you have to do after you've found your deplorables fall guy, you've weaponized the government through public-private partnerships, you have a war on the horizon, you have disorder on the streets and a loss of real justice and a loss of people's understanding of their own history, who they are, what it means to be a citizen.
00:33:51.720
What perversions actually are and are not, universal truths, and they're really, really mad.
00:34:03.420
All you then have to do is just change everything because nobody really knows what they used to be anymore.
00:34:15.920
And there's always, crazily, somebody who usually was involved openly or behind the scenes in all of the disruptions that comes to the table with an answer.
00:34:30.700
And they present you with, you know, a new society or a great narrative.
00:34:59.100
What we've done is documented in their own words everything that is going on right now.
00:35:12.760
I want to ask you, probably nobody's ever asked you this, and you've heard this phrase a million times.
00:35:17.620
Will you pledge mutually with each other your life, your fortune, and your sacred honor to preserve opportunity?
00:35:31.380
That's what America is really all about, and we've forgotten that.
00:35:34.100
We throw the word freedom and liberty around an awful lot.
00:35:49.900
And the opportunity for our children to be successful or failures in the pursuit of that success, to be knowledgeable, to be thinkers, not just dupes that follow the band, those are all going away, and they're going away quickly.
00:36:20.760
This audience, I've told you this for years, but now is the time.
00:36:26.360
You've done so much damage to ESG just by exposing it to your friends.
00:36:38.900
I think the third phase really is just all of this stuff being implemented through technology.
00:36:49.520
And if we don't stop it in the next 12 to 18 months, we lose the opportunity to truly chart our own course as individuals.
00:37:02.120
And it's up to you to find the way to spread the word and to be somebody who is very aware and walking in the gospel of peace.
00:37:14.160
If that happens, we preserve opportunity, not just for us, but for the whole world.
00:37:33.900
I've spent 20 years collecting these things to preserve them and to have you understand history and to preserve not only our history, but our culture.
00:37:42.300
And I invite you to join us in St. George next week.
00:37:49.960
I think there's only a few slots available next Monday and Tuesday, and then I think the rest of it's sold out.
00:37:54.780
But you can check out on the website, and that is unitedwepledge.org.
00:38:01.440
All the money goes, not to me or even our museum, all the money goes directly to United We Pledge, which they are building a liberty village.
00:38:14.160
You'll find out more on the website if you care to.

00:38:43.540
The first half is done, and it's really, unlike the paper copy, this one is funny, scary as hell.
00:38:54.520
But I tried to put a little sugar in the audio copy.
00:38:57.620

In fact, he's the youngest person in town to ever be elected to city council.

00:44:59.220
do you think so uh yeah he's not gonna pay for it however the case is not entirely closed but
00:45:08.900
how do you get away with that you have to have an awful lot of power awful lot of money and you
00:45:13.880
have to have an awful lot of allies that want to make sure that everybody stays in power and happy
00:45:19.640
and everything else it is a conspiracy but it's not a theory uh we are in a global web right now
00:45:29.200
of very powerful corporations and political leaders uh many of them i shouldn't say that
00:45:36.400
a lot of them know exactly what's going on many of them are either so corrupt or so stupid
00:45:44.040
that they have no clue as to what they just think it's happening in their country no no no this is
00:45:49.780
happening all over the world and it is a plan a plan to get us into i don't know other than poverty
00:45:58.580
uh with the green new deal and build back better that's not just happening here that's happening
00:46:04.080
everywhere in the west our dollar our inflation we're not just having those problems that's happening
00:46:12.100
everywhere in the west we're in this one together so what's really going on we have a guest from the
00:46:21.900
european parliament with us who was not a politician until a few years ago and then he was like uh
00:46:29.260
i think maybe i better stand up because things are getting dicey i'm going to talk to him in 60 seconds
00:46:35.660
first it has been almost a year hasn't it since roe versus wade when did that come out the 24th
00:46:41.480
of june yes saturday yes in one year uh one year anniversary of roe versus wade being overturned by the
00:46:46.960
way um uh to preserve history the lawyer for roe versus wade uh made them available and thought that
00:46:56.380
it was going to go into some progressive university library and my wife i told my wife about that it
00:47:03.620
was for sale and she said oh no so i bought the entire case of roe versus wade every receipt
00:47:12.500
everything from rose attorney back in 1971 uh and you'll see it on display in saint george important
00:47:22.000
to preserve and not have it spun out of control anyway uh lives are still being lost um i want to talk
00:47:31.340
to you about uh pre-born pre-born helps expectant mothers who oftentimes feel alone they don't know
00:47:41.220
where to go what to do they provide expecting mothers with free ultrasounds and postnatal care
00:47:48.080
for up to two years they're taking care of these they they have a deal where the moms can go shopping
00:47:54.540
for their babies for up to the first two years and like it's like they get new clothes and everything
00:47:59.360
people say oh well you don't care about mom you don't care about what happens after yes yes we do
00:48:05.340
yes we do these are children this all happens because of people like you will you help support
00:48:12.900
pre-born and their mission pre-born.com slash back you can hit pound 250 say the keyword baby to make a
00:48:20.020
donation uh pre-born.com slash back do it now sponsored by pre-born rob rose is a member of the
00:48:29.700
european parliament uh he is dutch and he is with us now and we were just talking off the air a little
00:48:37.680
bit about your history tell me you what what did you do before you got into politics i was an
00:48:46.000
entrepreneur i um i founded um i founded a couple of companies i bought companies i merged them
00:48:53.180
and in 2016 i sold most of my companies and uh well that was at the moment i was was no it was
00:49:01.700
starting earlier um i thought it's not going very well in in the netherlands yeah with uh with our
00:49:08.260
politicians and the way we are heading with uh you have the new green deal we have the green deal
00:49:14.740
um i had an engineering i'm i'm an electrical engineer that's my background and i had an engineering
00:49:20.300
company in uh in in energy so i i know pretty much about that and um and also in telecom but in 2016
00:49:29.540
i sold the most of it and well i had some extra time by then and i well i started helping a new
00:49:38.160
political party in the netherlands and um yeah you weren't you weren't a member of any party oh i
00:49:44.980
i i sponsored them but i was not even um i didn't become a member of that party yeah because there
00:49:51.120
was a very intelligent young guy and he was very enthusiastic and i said i'm so happy that uh someone
00:49:57.160
is uh picking up the the glass to to do this and um well but but but to make a long story uh short i uh i
00:50:07.100
ended up in in in the european parliament and it's incredible what i see there it's all about um
00:50:12.780
it's all about gender it's all about climate and um i i thought that politics was meant to be to
00:50:19.720
make people's lives better and not more expensive and more complicated i am
00:50:25.720
uh amazed that people all over the world have put up with what they have already gone through
00:50:35.140
um we are being told to disregard what we see disregard common sense scientific method um
00:50:46.100
none of it makes any sense and yet we're still kind of taking it yeah you seeing a difference in
00:50:53.680
no no i i see exactly the same and that's why i'm here in the united states to to create
00:50:58.460
um an alliance because it's it's our western way of life is in danger um and i i in the european
00:51:09.220
parliament i'm um the vice president of the the european conservatives and reformists and that's
00:51:15.660
one of the groups in uh but it's it's common sense i it's what president trump said it's call me a
00:51:23.800
conservative call me a classic liberal for me it's just common sense and i have exactly the same
00:51:29.200
there is no common sense anymore there what they are doing is
00:51:34.100
we're heading um in a certain direction and that certain direction that means that democracy is moving
00:51:43.760
away from people it's it's all top down that um the things are coming in like agenda 2030
00:51:52.120
policy uh this gender policy uh also this this climate policy hang on just a second do you have
00:51:58.840
your phone on you yes can we remove it from the studio yeah or turn it off it's just creating a
00:52:04.740
little interference okay go ahead um yeah sorry about that no no so um no democracy is moving away
00:52:13.140
from from the people it's um it's not what people ask for and it's all top down for example agenda 2030
00:52:20.100
i was um um i was one of the negotiators on that file in in the european parliament and it it was
00:52:27.380
welcomed by most of all my colleagues and it with a bigger plus but if you look at this 17 sustainable
00:52:34.460
development goals it's not helping the people for example um zero hunger uh no poverty
00:52:42.720
it's not that's not possible well it's it is possible but i'm i'm from the netherlands and we
00:52:49.400
have um the netherlands is 16 times smaller than texas we are a very tiny country right but we are
00:52:58.460
and i will say you're a wonderful country yes and i love the way you look at things and the system works
00:53:05.780
for you but you're not the united states of america you're we are the most diverse society ever yes
00:53:14.520
and now with the diversity that is coming into the netherlands it's getting dicey isn't it yes we
00:53:22.260
have a lot of we have a lot of the same problems yeah um but but but making my point about this uh zero
00:53:30.420
hunger yeah um we we are the second largest food producer of the world after the united states i know
00:53:37.820
i didn't know that until recently that is astounding and but but now they want to get
00:53:43.380
rid of 50 of the cuddle um our government because we have a nitrogen problem uh-huh it's it's it's too
00:53:51.760
stupid to explain because i if i if i tell the story you cannot believe it but um also we get
00:53:59.300
they have to get rid of 3 000 of our farmers but if you want zero hunger you have to produce food
00:54:07.600
we need more farmers correct and but but our farmers are very very efficient and uh also uh yes
00:54:14.620
huge innovation and they are doing so well so it doesn't make sense if you want because if you look
00:54:21.280
they say we have to save the planet but you we have to produce that food somewhere else so
00:54:26.560
winner they yeah i mean i don't know if they notice this but a lot of people live
00:54:31.540
where you can't grow food that's the point i mean and so when you talk about in one of the sustainable
00:54:37.900
uh uh uh ideas is to get rid of shipping get rid of shipping yes yes where are the people that live in
00:54:48.060
the actual food deserts going to get their food yeah and if you're the second largest producer because
00:54:54.560
they are putting the they're just grinding the farmer here in america and the rancher into the
00:55:00.300
ground exactly the same but you guys are ahead yes you guys are ahead we are the first and uh but
00:55:06.500
we see this also have you seen that in in ireland they do 60 000 cows they get rid of and it's also
00:55:13.440
happening in france and in spain already and i had a uh very wonderful discussion with commissioner
00:55:20.880
uh sid miller and he said it's it's it's also happening now in the united states he had an example
00:55:28.160
of um of a family they had a farm for for centuries generation on generation uh 17 000 acres and they
00:55:38.240
had a problem with the fence and um so they tried to um to repair it but there was still one nail not
00:55:49.760
not right so they took off this 17 000 acres of this farmer uh here in the united states also and
00:55:58.480
so they they they they they they're making it impossible yes but that's also with the climate the
00:56:04.560
climate policy we have we have created our own energy problems in 2010 europe was energy exporting
00:56:14.160
like the united states was energy exporting on the president trump now we depend on let's call them uh
00:56:22.160
not the most uh friendly and reliable and freedom loving that's that's the point yeah so
00:56:29.040
it we we we we can produce our own energy very easily but we make ourselves depend on so russian
00:56:37.920
what is it going to take for people in your country in our country to wake up to this well this is the
00:56:44.240
problem um for me it's the fight for freedom that's that's why i went into politics and what i discovered
00:56:51.600
is uh this fight for freedom is not for um scary people you have to speak out and but most of the
00:57:00.080
people are are captured in the system that's what i call it they can lose the job they they need a job
00:57:04.640
because they need an income to to to uh yeah to to to survive to live and when you speak out that was also
00:57:14.400
during covet um whatever you think about that but these restrictions were ridiculous but but people
00:57:22.320
kept silence even the people in my own political party said rob you don't you should not speak about
00:57:27.680
this because we have there is no uh political advantage in doing that i said what but but you call
00:57:35.120
yourself a classical liberal and you're not fighting for freedom yeah so what are you doing here correct
00:57:40.960
classical classical classical liberalism is really truly i think what could unite all of us yes again
00:57:49.200
um but it's it's a little frightening um to be in the same position that the world has been in before
00:57:57.600
i mean china said hey we're gonna farm everything differently and that was what 11 million deaths or is
00:58:05.040
that was that 20 million deaths in their five-year plan yes uh then you had uh russia do
00:58:10.880
the same killing millions but they knew better and they'd replace the farmers yes we're doing
00:58:16.560
all of these things over and over again when these things have happened in the past in the united states
00:58:23.040
but i think we're different now and not in a good way um the united states always had the bill of rights
00:58:30.400
and so we had an understanding of what we were fighting for we weren't fighting for freedom we were fighting for
00:58:36.560
for universal rights that were clearly spelled out and opportunity to be who we want to be and pursue our own
00:58:46.720
happiness in europe you don't have you your left and right can be uh fascism and communism and the
00:58:58.720
same people try to just play in the in the middle there a little bit you'll keep both of those things away
00:59:04.080
um what does it mean to be a conservative in europe because i'm afraid of nationalism and fascism
00:59:14.880
rearing its ugly head again here in my country but also in europe yeah it's it's i think we have a lot
00:59:22.000
of things in in in common uh we have a shared past and i also believe that we have a shared future we
00:59:30.240
because the western society in 1950 we were 30 percent of of the population on this planet now we are
00:59:38.480
only 14 so uh the western society is shrinking and we have of course external threat you meant china
00:59:46.320
already but um the i think the most important threat is is our cultural war and you you name it left and
00:59:54.240
right but i call it let's say the the globalist and the sovereignist i agree and um the the the the fight
01:00:05.200
to to yeah i call it the fight for freedom because what we see is um free speech is under attack the
01:00:13.920
fight of disinformation i i'm i'm doing a lot of legislation i'm in the environmental committee and
01:00:19.040
i mean i mean also in the energy committee and um we see the central bank digital currency is coming
01:00:27.200
up um the the the digital identity if you combine those two you have a perfect way to control people
01:00:36.800
okay will you explain that i think this audience for the most part understands that but a lot don't
01:00:43.040
and i think it was only 25 i saw a poll only 25 percent even know what a cbdc is and they confuse
01:00:51.120
it with bitcoin it is absolutely not bitcoin so let me take a one minute break and then we'll come
01:00:57.120
back and have you explain what you just said what does that mean uh first let me tell you about relief
01:01:02.320
factor sleep have you ever thought to yourself i'm so tired of being tired you're laying in bed
01:01:08.320
everybody else is asleep and you're looking at the clock and you're like i've got four hours
01:01:12.720
before i have to be up again i've got to go to sleep i don't like taking any kind of sleep medicine
01:01:17.840
because uh it just whacks you out the next day and it's it's just not good there is a natural way to
01:01:25.440
fall asleep with relief sleep it's 100 drug free it's a blend of natural ingredients and designed to
01:01:32.640
promote healthy sleep it just kind of de-stresses you just a little bit but you don't feel it in your
01:01:38.480
system at all uh it works my wife takes it i take it from time to time it's 20 bucks to get the
01:01:44.560
feeling of complete relaxation and contentment as you drift away to sleep have a great night's sleep
01:01:51.360
without putting all kinds of crap in your body unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800 the
01:01:56.480
number four relief 800 the number four relief relief factor dot com dream big sleep tight 10 seconds station id
01:02:15.760
we're with rob rose he is a member of the european parliament from the netherlands uh so explain
01:02:20.720
to somebody who really doesn't understand what cbdc is and how it will control every aspect of your
01:02:28.000
life i i can explain it in a very simple way it's not money it's it's a it's a coupon it's a what a
01:02:37.120
coupon a coupon it's a coupon and you can if wait wait explain that yes i will explain that okay it's a
01:02:45.440
coupon um because they can if if it's programmable and that's the discussion now it is they can say
01:02:54.080
um okay we put your money on the central bank digital currency and you can use that money in that
01:03:01.680
time of period and you can spend it on that and that and that item so you boy this is a brilliant way
01:03:07.520
to explain it i never heard anybody say that it's a coupon which at the bottom of the coupon it always
01:03:14.000
says some restrictions do apply expires at this date yes that's how you can't you and there's no way to
01:03:23.360
withdraw from the system can you imagine that um we had this um um this problem in in europe with uh this
01:03:32.560
switz bank but also here in the united states with um svb yes and of course there if things getting out of
01:03:41.440
hand and there is a bank run then uh horrible things get nasty yeah but if you have a central
01:03:48.560
bank digital currency it's not a problem anymore because you switch off the system no one can do
01:03:52.400
anything correct and they are in complete control you know what's crazy is i've said this i don't know
01:03:57.920
if you know who ray kurzweil is but he is um a guy i've read for decades he's a futurist and he's part of
01:04:04.800
uh uh this transhumanism kind of oh yes yes yes um and he was talking to me about this is 15 years
01:04:13.440
ago about the things that were coming and how we're going to be able to implant things and you're going
01:04:17.040
to have the two-way community all of it's horrible and i said ray if you are keeping me alive by the
01:04:25.600
things that i'm transmitting and you're putting into me um what happens if i fall out of favor and you just
01:04:32.720
turn me off his response was oh we would never do that yes i didn't feel comfortable with that
01:04:40.800
and uh amazon just shut down here in america's somebody's smart home just shut them down for a
01:04:48.960
week because the an amazon deliverer said that they had made a racist comment which the tape shows didn't
01:04:57.840
happen but amazon didn't even call they just shut them down you're no longer a part of this no if they
01:05:04.080
say we should never uh no we shouldn't we will never do that it's our system is not based on trust our
01:05:12.000
system is based on checks and balances and oversight so um we if and if you look at history we can learn
01:05:21.920
right thank you thank you more in just a second with rob rose uh from the european parliament we
01:05:27.840
want to talk to him a little bit about war russia what's coming what's going on with all of that
01:05:34.400
the view from europe in just a minute the glenn back program american financing nmls one eight two three
01:05:42.000
three four www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org mortgage rates uh you hear all the time they're extremely high
01:05:49.280

welcome to the uh the glenn back program we have rob rose with us he's a member of the european
01:07:23.760
parliament he's from the netherlands he is the vice president of the european conservatives and reformists
01:07:29.600
uh and head of the delegation for the uh ja 21 party what is that well it's just a new political
01:07:37.520
party in the netherlands we have 150 seats and we have 20 political parties it's crazy but
01:07:43.760
it's not working very well well you know what our two-party system isn't working it's also a problem
01:07:49.520
but i always say we have to split until we have 150 parties then we have a real democracy
01:07:55.680
uh well rob thank you for being here i know you're in the united states you're going to go to washington
01:07:59.920
and meet with some of uh our leaders and ring the warning bell there um and i hope you find some
01:08:06.720
allies we were talking about the farmers you told me off the air that you have what every two weeks
01:08:11.920
one farmer takes his life every 12 days yes it's a terrible situation over there these people are
01:08:16.800
really desperate because what the government is doing to them is it true they're taking the land
01:08:21.520
away from the farmers yes that's what they're doing and if it's it's also very crazy because um as from
01:08:28.320
from nature we are declining in population but we are growing because of migration we went up from
01:08:34.640
15 million people to 80 million people in the last 30 years 50 15 to 80 no 18 18 but it's still 20 20
01:08:43.680
percent and for a small country that's that's pretty much yeah and we have a lack of of houses and but
01:08:48.720
it's um it's a huge pressure on our system but they need the land and what we see now is that the um
01:08:56.720
um um the farmers are because of all kinds of regulation they can only use 90 percent of of
01:09:03.600
of their land to to build crops and etc and the other 10 is the the government is saying you
01:09:10.320
it's it's not allowed to do something it's your own land your own farmer from generation to generation
01:09:15.440
and the government is determining what you can and what you cannot do um with the world economic forum i'm
01:09:22.240
i'm sure we're on the same page with the world economic forum i i don't know but uh with the
01:09:27.040
things that they are doing with just the wef and u.n and all of our governments um in bed with it
01:09:36.080
i just don't see uh it's it's very malthusian well that yes it's a death sentence what what's coming
01:09:45.040
yeah this is what i meant in at the beginning i said democracy is is moving away from people yeah
01:09:51.040
um this is not what the people want we have a public private uh partnership partnership but it's
01:09:58.640
it's not with small businesses it's only with the corporate correct and small businesses are suffering
01:10:05.120
very very much also during covet they a lot of them didn't make made it because of uh they have
01:10:10.400
to close the businesses i'm one of them yeah and you spoke out early on kovid and that wasn't popular
01:10:18.320
yes i spoke uh out because um i didn't believe in all these restrictions right and um young people
01:10:26.720
not able to go to school we're creating dumb people um small businesses that that they had to close
01:10:33.280
because of nothing um it it it ruined our economy and we created um problems with people health
01:10:43.760
problems mental health problems one of what one out of five was really in mental problems in in our
01:10:49.840
country and and it still is not solved yet we're right with you yes and um so that's i it doesn't
01:10:59.040
make sense to do this unless you're trying to destroy what you already have yes especially with
01:11:05.200
small businesses yeah um let me switch uh quickly here because i know you only have a couple of
01:11:10.400
minutes left but um russia yes uh i don't know where you stand on this i'm not a fan of russia
01:11:19.920
they're not the good guys but i don't think we're the good guys either i mean our leadership i think
01:11:25.360
most people around the world are going what what are we go where are we going nobody's really made
01:11:30.640
the case in a cogent way that this is critical and that we can win and what it looks like with a win
01:11:40.080
i mean i think we're headed towards disaster in the european parliament we um you have to i'm not a fan
01:11:47.280
of russia either um i think it's terrible what they did to invade a free country it's not possible to
01:11:55.200
do that um but it's not about who is winning this war it's about who is winning the peace and i
01:12:07.680
i i think we have to help ukraine in defending themselves but we also have to push them to the
01:12:13.600
negotiation table and that is not happening they they are talking ukraine has to win this war you
01:12:20.720
cannot win this war it's impossible wasn't the netherlands the one that did the um uh did the
01:12:29.120
report on what was the blowing up the pipeline what was that nordstrom nordstrom didn't you guys do
01:12:34.400
the yeah that was no norway it was no way so i mean do you think you think we did it
01:12:40.720
i i i no one knows yeah only a couple of people yeah but it doesn't make sense for russia to blow
01:12:50.320
up his own correct infrastructure correct thank you so much um any way we can help you we we have to
01:12:57.520
have allies if if the people in europe stand up uh and the people in america and canada stand up we
01:13:04.640
have a chance of saving the wealth the what the west but if we don't and we're running out of time
01:13:09.680
we're running out of time very fast and that's why i'm here i'm trying to find allies and um yeah
01:13:16.080
let's let's fight for it's not about europe it's not about america it's about our western way of life

01:16:30.000
welcome to the glenbeck programmer really really super happy that you're here uh i mean that sincerely
01:16:35.760
strangely that sounded sarcastic and i uh it's not now what was sarcastic was uh
01:16:43.600
you know i know everything about your country uh the netherlands or is that a collection of
01:16:47.600
countries is sweden part of that how about finland i know nothing about where you are except the
01:16:52.800
general area i'm an american we really are americans we we are really bad you have the american-made
01:16:58.880
t-shirt american giant on right now and i don't think he i mean he's obviously very very smart
01:17:04.000
i only speak one language and it's english and i speak it poorly um he speaks at least two so he's
01:17:11.200
smarter than i am i think i think he was impressed that you got the first letter of the country correct
01:17:16.320
do you think so yeah yeah norway he's in america norway is that is stockholm a country or a city and
01:17:23.600
is it in the netherlands i don't who knows is the netherlands the same as the nether regions right
01:17:30.160
and uh you know i said that you were dutch is seems totally how does that work you probably
01:17:37.280
speak what what about holland is that a different place to the same place yeah i mean i know the dutch
01:17:41.760
are from holland so what the hell is holland okay what i don't know did they break away what happened
01:17:47.200
we have absolutely no i was talking about my son was asking me about this we were talking about france for
01:17:52.480
some reason he's like so when you go to france do you have to speak french i'm like son you're
01:17:56.320
from america you speak whatever you want wherever you go that's how this works yeah and you tell
01:18:01.280
them i don't speak american yeah yeah they love that they love it but it's true no matter where you
01:18:08.640
seem to go i mean there's you can always get away with with the good old america standing there in
01:18:14.640
the castle looking at that tapestry now i'm from texas everything has a price how much for that
01:18:19.600
how much for that crowny thing you got up in that special room up there i love it oh i'm being from
01:18:26.000
this place oh and uh you know look it's it's good to see though that you do have some sane allies
01:18:31.360
around the world he seemed very safe i don't know anything about him he could be plotting the death
01:18:37.040
of millions i don't know i don't think so yeah i don't think so but i don't know where his country
01:18:41.760
really is it's hard to tell so it's hard it's interesting to uh to talk to someone though that
01:18:47.920
because you feel like even here it's rare to find someone who can see things clearly and to see
01:18:54.240
that um you know as someone who's not only recognizing this in their own country but seeing
01:18:58.400
it across the world and here in america i mean it's sort of scary that i well i asked him off the air i
01:19:03.680
said is there is there anybody in europe that does what we do here and he's like oh no and that that's
01:19:10.800
a big problem they don't have talk radio they don't have real freedom of speech like this on on
01:19:17.920
radio and listen to it while it lasts but they don't have this this is really if if talk radio and
01:19:25.600
now podcasting didn't exist where would you be hearing all of this can you imagine how different
01:19:32.400
we would be without talk radio without podcasting yeah i don't think we'd be i don't think we'd be
01:19:40.240
free right now yeah and that's of course why they've targeted all these things so so much i mean you look
01:19:45.360
at look at how much they freaked out when elon musk bought twitter i mean look at that look at this let
01:19:50.240
me play something on uh from kamala harris yesterday the um the roe versus wade being overturned is coming
01:19:59.040
up saturday for its one year anniversary listen to what she said about abortion this is fundamentally
01:20:04.080
about freedom the right to make decisions about your own life and your own body and this is a
01:20:10.880
foundational principle for our country we were founded on the notion that government should
01:20:18.560
at some point stay out of people's business which point is it just this point to say it in an
01:20:24.080
academic way oh is that the academic way it's a legal matter right and when we think about this
01:20:32.480
and connect this with so many other issues um i think we all have to stand up and say that you know
01:20:39.280
we as a nation stand for the principle of freedom what now can you imagine you imagine if there were no
01:20:45.760
podcasting and talk radio you'd hear that and you'd go is it just me
01:20:54.080
because they'd be hammering that point of view hammering it they still do there's just at least
01:20:59.920
some voice to push back against it right uh it and that's insanity wait a minute we have the freedom
01:21:08.160
to do what with our bodies what we choose explain covid will you explain that because i don't think we
01:21:16.480
have that right uh at least in your opinion she literally pushed tweeted praise for a vaccine
01:21:24.000
mandate right that was that was that was eventually thrown out but she supported every little bit
01:21:32.960
of that in fact she supports the invasion of government into every single aspect of your
01:21:41.120
life with this one exception this one exception what your air conditioning is set at what car you drive
01:21:47.600
are you going to have energy are you going to have a gas stove in your kitchen i mean there are
01:21:52.960
every aspect of your life she wants to be involved in and then she can come out and somehow make
01:21:59.920
murder with a straight face say murdering children is the one time government shouldn't get involved i
01:22:06.560
mean it's the most incomprehensible thing they turn into libertarians for 15 seconds a day unless
01:22:13.600
your goal is the elimination of people the the additional unwanted unusable unneeded useless people i
01:22:23.840
guess chaos and gaslighting and there can be multiple motivations here but it the how other than
01:22:32.960
stupidity right i can't come up with a good one yeah no i mean you could disagree yeah you could disagree
01:22:41.280
with me and and be for abortion but i i i think and maybe i'm wrong i don't think most people are
01:22:51.200
there with a good solid abortion should be legal argument yeah it's there it's just knee jerk i'm for
01:23:00.240
that when we were in new york when we were in new york doing the show um i had uh lunch with one of
01:23:05.760
john stossel's producers back in the day and she was a really really smart person we were just of
01:23:11.280
course you know nerds talking and we were talking about you know libertarian principles and i was
01:23:15.920
saying you know i i'm a libertarian leaning conservative and uh i think that's pretty much
01:23:22.160
how she described herself and we got into the pro-life pro-choice thing and i'm you know very
01:23:26.960
strongly pro-life i mean it's really really one of the most important parts of my philosophy you should
01:23:32.000
not be i don't know you should try to get children to be alive he still has scars on his face from
01:23:36.560
when i tried to kill him with a coat hanger right yes um and she had a libertarian argument for being
01:23:43.840
pro-life and she went through it and we talked about it and it was a co again i don't agree with
01:23:50.160
it but it was a coherent argument oh for pro-choice for pro-choice yeah a coherent argument
01:23:55.520
that worked with her philosophy correct which was a and jillette has made that yeah and it's basically
01:24:02.800
an extreme individual rights viewpoint right which they call radical and unworkable if you go into
01:24:12.880
extreme rights like i believe we should legalize every drug these are the first people to say are you
01:24:21.200
out of your mind can never be done and we got to limit this and limit that and limit this
01:24:27.440
yet they'll agree with the libertarian who stands up and would make that case and say yeah well for
01:24:34.560
these reasons i can disagree with that person but i can at least hear their argument go okay well i
01:24:40.960
disagree with it but that makes sense what she just said makes no sense it makes sense if you have
01:24:47.520
associated libertarian beliefs you could say okay all right look it's absolute freedom and you know
01:24:54.560
what a baby can't survive inside a one being cannot survive inside of the other being without the help
01:25:00.240
of the mother right the mother is required to do something if if you want to say from an extreme
01:25:06.160
libertarian view they don't have to be required to do anything they should be able to do something uh to
01:25:12.000
remove that you know the other person from them again it's a view i find to be completely misguided
01:25:17.120
it's at least one that on a good debate stage right you can have an academic conversation about
01:25:22.960
if you hold views like you know we shouldn't have police
01:25:30.320
if you get you we should have police for the irs right that are somehow involved in kicking down the
01:25:36.720
doors of gun stores uh and not arresting people that are burning our cities you really don't have a
01:25:43.840
cogent case when you have a philosophy that is involved in every aspects of everyone's life
01:25:48.480
from a central government it makes no sense to have this idea and no one questions them on it
01:26:01.120
uh when's the last time you checked the legal title to your home
01:26:04.560

01:27:53.520
you there's a few legal issues uh that are kind of out there that maybe we should i don't know i'm
01:27:59.600
kind of interested in the hunter biden thing uh we're going to talk a little bit about that uh and
01:28:05.840
also the donald trump uh uh litigation that he's going through i i i don't understand there's
01:28:14.480
people i respect on both sides that are telling me the opposite things so i wanted to get them both
01:28:19.520
on and we get one side then get the other uh the first one is uh michael bakesh and he is a judicial
01:28:27.360
watch senior attorney attorney and he says what's happening with donald trump it i mean he's gonna he's
01:28:34.640
gonna win this this is really not that tough talking to alan dershowitz he says the opposite
01:28:42.560
and alan's been fighting for donald trump and you know all this legal overreach for years but he says
01:28:49.760
this one he thinks he's in trouble with so we're going to talk to both of them and get a feel on that
01:28:54.400
and also get any of their thoughts on wow this amazing story on uh hunter biden we go there in 60 seconds
01:29:04.640
now let me talk to you first about gold line the fed wants you to believe that inflation is under
01:29:10.000
control i assure you it is not we are speeding along a bridge at about 150 miles an hour and
01:29:16.800
they're about to hit hyperdrive uh unfortunately uh there's there's no end to that bridge it's been
01:29:23.200
blown to kingdom come so when they say inflation is cooling i think that sounds like inflation is
01:29:30.800
transitory and they were wrong then they're wrong now gold line is here to help put your mind at
01:29:37.760
ease and protect any money that you do have with hard assets that can't be artificially printed and
01:29:44.800

michael mikesh is on with us judicial watch senior attorney hello michael how are you i'm good thanks
01:30:37.920
for having me good okay so we have first of all can we just get your opinion on the hunter biden thing
01:30:45.040
if you have one uh i mean really four years investigation i gotta believe if they were
01:30:54.000
misdemeanors wouldn't somebody at the irs say guys there's nothing here you're not going to get him
01:31:00.160
on anything but a misdemeanor and it'll cost us millions of dollars and it's just not worth it
01:31:06.000
you know now that the investigation is over it's going to be interesting to see what uh records judicial
01:31:10.800
watch is going to be able to turn up because you're right after four years this is this is all
01:31:16.000
they can do what what have they been doing all this time right why would you spend all of this money
01:31:20.480
and all of this time if they're misdemeanors it doesn't make sense besides the fact that there are
01:31:27.920
different rules for different people yeah yeah um is the the case with the u.s district attorney in
01:31:35.360
delaware is it closed or it seems like it's still open uh you know i'm not 100 sure i believe it's
01:31:43.760
still open but what does that may not be okay all right yeah all right so let's talk about um
01:31:51.120
trump's case um alan dershowitz is coming on in a minute and he's saying that he thinks he's in
01:31:58.480
trouble on this one you said you're saying the the opposite so explain the case that they have
01:32:07.200
against donald trump and where you think the bright spots are yeah so basically the prosecution of
01:32:17.280
donald trump with with respect to the documents all started because the national archives somebody at
01:32:23.440
the national archives thought that maybe president trump had some records that maybe he shouldn't
01:32:30.480
have taken with him when he left office that's how this started and in the wall street journal i
01:32:38.400
wrote a piece talking about a similar case that judish watch had against the archives when it came
01:32:44.160
to president clinton and his records while he was in office president clinton created these audio
01:32:50.800
recordings and on these audio recordings had all sorts of information you know they had conversations
01:32:57.040
with foreign leaders it had discussions about um cruise missile attacks to get osama bin laden
01:33:05.680
it had information that would be classified had it gone through proper channels but instead president
01:33:13.040
clinton kept these tapes in his sock drawer and decided to take them with him when he left office
01:33:18.480
and did he declassify them before he took them he didn't do anything okay according to what we
01:33:26.560
know he simply took them with him and judicial watch wanted the tapes when he found out about them we
01:33:33.680
figured you know these are presidential records these are tapes showing president clinton being president
01:33:40.800
so we sued the national archives for the tapes and in that case between 2010 and 2012 the
01:33:48.240
justice department the obama justice department took the position that whatever president clinton took
01:33:54.800
with him were not presidential records they were personal records and there's nothing that they could do to get
01:34:01.440
them back in 2012 the district court here in the in in dc agreed with the government and the judge in that case
01:34:12.240
and she said the sole it is the sole responsibility of the president to decide what records are personal
01:34:19.840
what records are presidential and once they are taken out of the white house there's nothing that the court
01:34:27.840
could do to get them back now is that because i'm just trying to play devil's advocate is that because
01:34:35.760
these were tapes that he made and not top secret documents even though they may have contained top
01:34:45.360
secret information but he made the tapes you know it doesn't glenn doesn't really make a difference
01:34:53.040
because it not only it wasn't as though president clinton was you know pressing record and going out and
01:34:59.920
buying the tapes you know based on he was doing this along with a historian and based on the
01:35:05.920
historian's discussions about it what he's told the public um the white house operations staff helped
01:35:14.640
schedule the interviews help prepare the tapes probably went out and purchased the tapes um and so
01:35:21.360
the only thing that president clinton did was place the tapes at the end of the session
01:35:26.480
into his sock drawer and that's very similar to what president documents um if you look in the
01:35:33.920
indictment paragraph two says while he was present trump placed documents in boxes paragraph four says
01:35:44.000
when president trump left office he took those boxes with him to me it's not a sock drawer but it was
01:35:50.880
those boxes it was the same process president trump decided what he wanted to keep what he wanted to
01:35:57.040
leave and he took what he wanted to keep with him when he left office okay so help me out on this again
01:36:04.960
i just i i want to ask you tough questions because i really don't know legally where this is is headed and
01:36:12.000
except all the way around trouble um trump's defense is that his actions were protected under the
01:36:19.520
presidential records act but that act excludes and i'm quoting any documentary materials that are
01:36:26.800
official records of an agency so the indictment alleges that he had the information about our
01:36:33.120
nuclear program defense weapons capabilities potential vulnerabilities of the us and our allies
01:36:39.680
is it is it is it your uh view that these kinds of documents are protected under the pra because of the
01:36:50.240
bill clinton or is there more there's more um the fact that the presidential records act talks about
01:36:57.760
agency records is really is really a red herring because as the courts the dc appellate court um
01:37:06.400
here found that really the focus is are the records received by the president once the president receives
01:37:14.000
a record from the agency it's no longer just an agency record it's now a record received by the
01:37:20.320
president so it has a different status i mean just imagine it doesn't make sense that once the president
01:37:27.120
the president gets a record from the agency is it like a library book and he has to return it within
01:37:32.160
21 days absolutely not it's it's his record and under the law he can do what he wants right and there
01:37:40.240
there are exceptions uh no no no the it is treated that way with things like the nuclear code he has
01:37:48.480
access to that but it's in a football held by a member of the department of defense that's with him all the
01:37:56.240
time so there are some records that do have to be signed in and signed out right well maybe i mean
01:38:05.280
the question is what what is constitute what is allowed by the constitution and these are questions
01:38:11.680
that really have never been addressed the president united states is commander in chief everything in the
01:38:18.720
executive branch flows from him so there is one question on you know what limitations can congress
01:38:25.280
place place on the commander in chief but also there's a question of whether or not congress
01:38:29.840
can mandate and require another branch of government to do something and so there are strong arguments that
01:38:39.360
if the presidential records act is what um some folks say it is then that would be unconstitutional
01:38:49.280
because it's placing burdens on the office of the president that's not allowed um the other question
01:38:55.920
under the espionage act is authorization while while someone's in someone is in office while president
01:39:04.160
trump was in office he was authorized to maintain that information to maintain those documents if if you
01:39:11.920
went into the oval office he could show you that document because he had absolute authorization to do what he
01:39:18.080
wanted with it so the question is did he authorize himself by to take those records with him when he left
01:39:25.840
but hang on just a second because he does have the ability to declassify but even according to his own
01:39:34.880
words in the indictment there's a transcript of a conversation um where he holds up classified document
01:39:40.960
to somebody and he says somebody writing a book about him see as president i could have declassified
01:39:46.480
this well now i can't you know but so this is still a secret so he knew that he possessed something
01:39:54.000
secret he knew that he hadn't chosen to declassify it as president and now he's showing it to a member of
01:40:02.560
the press not as president right and then the question there and i think it's facts that again indictments are
01:40:12.160
just one side of every fact and i i don't know the facts you don't know the facts the american public
01:40:18.400
don't know the facts but the question is how whatever document he had in his hand how did he
01:40:25.600
get into his hand and i think we need what we need to do and what the public needs to wait is to wait until
01:40:33.120
all the facts come out to see whether or not he was in fact authorized to still have that record and
01:40:40.240
maybe the facts will show that he wasn't you know i keep thinking if president trump after he had left
01:40:47.280
office somehow got access to records he didn't have access to when he was present that would be
01:40:54.480
a problem where a problem may lie right but if the records were in his possession while he was office
01:41:01.680
and he took an affirmative steps to maintain those records when he left there are real constitutional
01:41:09.920
legal questions about whether or not that was authorized okay let me give you a statement from
01:41:15.360
um bill bar and i'm sorry i'm just playing devil's advocate because i i want to hit both sides i'm
01:41:20.640
going to hit alan with the same thing um both sides hard because i want to see i want to ask the
01:41:26.800
questions that people are not asking but i think the american people are asking um there's a statement from
01:41:32.720
one of not my favorite people in the world uh um a former attorney general uh bill bar i want to give
01:41:39.040
you a chance to respond to it he said quote i think the counts under the espionage act that he willfully
01:41:45.440
retained those documents are solid counts they gave him every opportunity to return those documents they
01:41:51.840
acted with restraint they acted very deferential to him and they were very patient they talked to him for
01:41:58.240
almost a year to try to get those documents and he jerked them around he finally it they finally
01:42:02.960
went to a subpoena and what did he do according to the government he lied and obstructed that subpoena
01:42:09.040
and when they did a search they found a lot more documents their official records they're not as
01:42:13.440
personal records battle plans for an attack on another country defense department documents about
01:42:17.920
our capabilities in no universe donald j chumps uh do these belong or personal documents of donald j trump
01:42:28.240
there's a lot there um to begin with the end part the justice the obama justice department would
01:42:34.800
would disagree so with the federal court that that concluded that once a president leaves office
01:42:42.560
it is assumed that the president chose to take those records had designated them as personal and that
01:42:50.240
there was nothing that could be done about it and so just because uh former attorney general bard
01:42:55.600
doesn't think those records should have been taken doesn't mean that lawfully they couldn't have been
01:43:01.760
taken the other the other interesting part is attorney general bar seems to focus a lot on the fact that
01:43:09.120
president trump may have not for all the records that he had been asked to turn over well under the espionage
01:43:17.760
act that's irrelevant so even if he had returned those records if the espionage is what everybody
01:43:25.520
thinks it is yeah then president trump could have still been charged under the espionage act okay
01:43:32.720
and so this like so this idea that it's somehow different because he still had the records really
01:43:38.560
is just showing an emphasis that he's displeased or unhappy with president trump's actions and has
01:43:44.480
nothing to do with what the law actually is we're talking to uh michael bakesh and he has litigated over
01:43:50.800
a hundred public record cases in both state and federal courts on behalf of judicial watch
01:43:55.360
michael hang on for one minute i want to come back and ask you a final question um first let me tell
01:44:00.640
you about relief factor no matter how long you've been dealing with pain in your life whether it's a
01:44:04.320
day or 50 years it's too long pain sucks the joy right out of life it makes it really hard or sometimes
01:44:10.800
unbearable just to be able to do your everyday basic tasks this shouldn't be and i've always been
01:44:18.000
somebody who's like better living through pharmaceuticals i'm not that guy anymore i i've
01:44:22.320
learned my lesson on that one uh especially when it comes to pain this stuff destroys you it destroys
01:44:29.120
your ability to think everything so how do you get along when you have pain well reduce the inflammation
01:44:37.040
well ibuprofen has never worked and i've been on the hard stuff yeah i've taken two ibuprofen 800s i know
01:44:44.160
against the doctor's wishes but i did it i just went ahead and i just did it nothing happens i tried
01:44:51.120
the three-week quick start 1995 it's a trial pack not a drug developed by doctors hundreds of thousands
01:44:57.600
of people have ordered relief factor about 70 of them go on to order more i order more every single
01:45:03.680
month because it works for me relieffactor.com call 800 the number for relief 800 for relief relief
01:45:10.960
factor.com 1995 three-week quick start relief factor.com feel the difference 10 seconds station id
01:45:28.400
so i am glad that uh president trump is living in florida or anywhere out of new york or uh the washington dc
01:45:38.080
area because i think you can actually get possibly a fair trial tell me about the judge and uh is it
01:45:45.520
going to make a difference that it's not in dc you know it probably will make a difference it's not in dc
01:45:52.560
because once you uh get out of this bubble um people think more clearly and are a little bit more level
01:45:58.640
headed but i just keep thinking it probably doesn't matter entirely where the jury is because these are
01:46:05.040
complicated confusing constitutional issues that a jury is going to need to deal with and i think it's
01:46:12.240
going to be very hard for a prosecutor to convince every single juror that president trump had no
01:46:20.400
authority as president um to remove the documents and to keep the documents that he wanted to keep
01:46:28.000
i hate what about ism but with hillary clinton and what she did with documents putting them online
01:46:35.680
um cutting off confidential at the top of the record so they can be facts to her um crazy crazy
01:46:43.360
inappropriate stuff that she wasn't president she didn't have the the up she didn't have the right
01:46:48.080
to even do that um and even joe biden he had boxes that i think it said took him two days to go
01:46:55.600
through and his attorneys to pack him up and get him out um what's the difference between those two
01:47:02.400
and donald trump i think the fact he's donald trump people seem to dislike him and want to treat the
01:47:11.040
laws treat him differently under the law i mean there's no excuse for what hillary clinton did you know i
01:47:19.920
litigated for numerous years foia lawsuits you know against the state department trying to get access
01:47:26.080
to all of her emails we took depositions we had discovery into not only her close personal
01:47:32.880
confidence but state department employees and in the end we know that her attorneys went through and
01:47:41.520
deleted emails that they did not want to return in the state department and the justice department said
01:47:48.720
that was okay okay i have 45 seconds i don't know if you can answer this but it's got to be a short
01:47:54.720
answer um when you look at uh this case and i just lost it so i'm sorry i was just focused so much on
01:48:01.680
the 45 seconds that i just lost the question but it was a good question mind you so maybe i may have to
01:48:07.200
have you back uh and answer that um hang on michael thank you so much for everything you're doing good
01:48:14.640

01:50:09.600
welcome to the glenn beck program so when when trump was indicted last week uh i was on vacation
01:50:26.400
and i was not paying attention in the news and i mentioned it on monday when i came back but i told
01:50:31.840
you i i wanted to really get the best minds on both sides um and talk to them and because there's
01:50:39.520
there's people who like have defended trump and may like trump but one of those who i think is very
01:50:50.800
credible on this because he has defended trump time and time and time and time again written books about
01:50:56.720
it um now says this is real trouble and his his name is alan dershowitz uh so i just had this is
01:51:05.360
no big deal we can win this uh and he says there's real trouble so let's get the real trouble side uh
01:51:14.000
now from alan dershowitz hi alan how are you hey how are you uh there's real trouble but that doesn't mean
01:51:20.640
that it can't be one this is a very very serious charge you know in my book get trump i predicted
01:51:27.920
all of this i also predicted the indictment of hunter biden on minimal charges in order to demonstrate
01:51:34.880
the the claim that there's equal justice but the problem with donald trump is illustrated by that plaque
01:51:42.640
that some people have in their homes with a stuffed fish on it that says if i'd only kept my mouth shut
01:51:48.560
i'd still be swimming all of trump's problems come from his own statements what he said the most
01:51:55.520
serious one is what he said to a writer who was writing a book on meadows in which he allegedly
01:52:01.520
showed him some classified material he says it wasn't he said it's just newspapers you hear on the
01:52:06.000
tape apparently rustling and i don't know what the facts are but and saying i could have declassified
01:52:11.600
this but i didn't so it's still secret that seems like the government will use it as an admission
01:52:19.520
that he didn't declassify everything if he hadn't said that his claim of declassification would be
01:52:24.720
very strong then he spoke to his lawyers now i don't think those statements should ever be admissible
01:52:29.920
those are lawyer client privilege statements i was aware i would be fighting like hell to keep those out
01:52:36.080
because i can't talk to my clients anymore as a result of that ruling so it's only with clients
01:52:41.120
so i i watched enough perry mason and i know that's not actual law but if you break the bond of
01:52:49.360
attorney client privilege you sometimes you're working with a dummy like me and i'm like i don't know what
01:52:55.680
happens if we don't give him to them well i'm asking for your legal opinion what if you tell it to a
01:53:02.480
priest what if you say to a priest um you know i know this would be a sin but i'm thinking perhaps
01:53:09.600
maybe of not giving it over and the priest says no you must give it over or you talk to your doctor
01:53:16.960
all these privileges are now at risk as a result of this terrible decision made by judges who were
01:53:24.640
hand-picked by the special prosecutor remember the cases in florida but this special prosecutor brought
01:53:30.400
these legal motions to compel the lawyers to speak in dc where he knew he'd get a more favorable court
01:53:37.520
so he was judge shopping and then he got his favorable rulings and then he takes the case
01:53:44.160
to florida wow and i would hope florida court would look at that in a very very critical light because
01:53:51.600
as i say i have to tell my clients now don't ask me any questions because i may have to disclose them
01:53:58.000
i'm not taking notes anymore with clients i'm not turning over anything that my my clients tell me
01:54:04.160
in confidence just because some court says you know and then there's this absurd thing of a tainting
01:54:09.680
where if you say something's lawyer client privilege the government says all right we'll pick some
01:54:14.320
government lawyers who have lunch every day with the prosecutors and who stand next to them in the
01:54:19.360
urinal every day and we will allow them to look at the lawyer client privilege material read them
01:54:26.000
and oh they promise they won't with a week and not say anything to the prosecution that's what's
01:54:31.760
happening now and judge cannon had the courage to write a decision saying no she was going to appoint
01:54:38.480
an independent judge a former judge a great judge in new york to look over the lawyer client
01:54:44.320
classified materials in the court said no no no no that's special treatment for trump no that's what
01:54:48.720
everybody should get so the crime uh the crime fraud exception to attorney client privilege you don't
01:54:57.040
buy into that here i buy into it in general but i have to tell you i've done 250 cases involving
01:55:03.760
criminal defendants i would say in half of them the conversation included some reference to maybe if i
01:55:11.280
went to brazil i couldn't get caught no you can't do that you'll get caught but you know the client raises
01:55:17.040
all kinds of questions that's what that's why it's confidential correct it's the same as the
01:55:22.640
anything they want it's isn't it the same reason why we have the presidential uh confidentiality when
01:55:29.600
when you're talking to the president in the oval and you're brainstorming people don't want to say
01:55:35.120
things that maybe are unpopular or will say things that are maybe crazy in in hindsight but you're
01:55:40.960
brainstorming i don't want that on the record i want to be able to have a private conversation if you
01:55:46.400
can't have that you don't really have anything no i agree with you look when i taught at harvard for
01:55:52.960
50 years i would say to my students what you say in this class is confidential and you can be as
01:55:59.280
speculative as you want uh you can say any wild thing about criminal law you can make statements
01:56:05.840
that you would be ashamed to have made public this is for a socratic discussion and in socratic
01:56:10.880
discussions anything goes the indictment doesn't ever mention the presidential records act or or
01:56:19.120
the word espionage or the word espionage that's being thrown around all over the place yeah so wait
01:56:26.880
so so so so where is i mean because i have gathered uh from what i've read from you that this serious
01:56:35.120
charge and he's going to have a hard time why it it sounds like there's a lot of other legal issues
01:56:42.800
to really go after there are and that's why it's not a slam dunk case that's why the case should never
01:56:49.040
have been brought i said that you don't bring a case against the man forget about former president
01:56:53.440
you don't bring a case against the man who's running to become the president against the incumbent
01:56:57.520
head of your party unless you have a slam dunk case now i think they have a case but it's not a
01:57:03.440
slam dunk case there are these legal issues involving lawyer client privilege the government
01:57:07.920
doesn't have the piece of paper that was waived allegedly in front of this writer so they have
01:57:13.040
a hard time proving that they have to deal with the classification issue it's a winnable case but it's
01:57:18.480
also a losable case whereas the case in new york is absurd case in new york the the prosecutor
01:57:24.640
should be disciplined for bringing it in in 60 years of this doing this business i've never seen
01:57:30.320
a weaker indictment than new york i cannot say that about the florida case that doesn't mean
01:57:35.840
it's going to end up with trump being convicted particularly since the trial
01:57:39.840
is in a fair district unlike manhattan okay i love manhattan i live in manhattan but you can't
01:57:44.640
get a fair trial with donald trump in manhattan maybe you can in palm beach county okay so so let me
01:57:51.040
let me take you through the crazy scenario that uh he goes to trial in the middle of an election
01:57:59.920
season right he's convicted sentenced what does this look like we've never we didn't do this with
01:58:06.960
nixon we've never done this before what what does this look like hope we'll never do it again nobody
01:58:13.120
knows what it looks like the only thing we know for sure is he can run for president even if he's in
01:58:17.280
prison um eugene v debs ran for president when he was in prison curly became mayor of boston while
01:58:23.360
he was in prison the constitution specifies only several criteria and the constitution means what
01:58:28.960
it says so you can run um you can even serve as president while in prison that's not going to
01:58:34.080
happen judge is not going to sentence him to prison for these crimes uh these crimes did not endanger
01:58:39.360
national security they are not espionage the media is throwing around the term espionage the first
01:58:45.040
thing that has to happen is this trial must be on television we the american people do not trust the
01:58:52.560
media to tell us the truth about the trial if you watch msnbc and cnn and read the new york times
01:58:58.960
you're going to think it's an open and shut case of guilt and if you see other networks you're going to
01:59:03.280
see it's an open and shut case of innocence you know i was a lawyer in the oj simpson case there was a
01:59:08.640
poll that showed that people who actually watched the trial on television were not surprised at the
01:59:13.600
verdict but people who read about it in the newspapers were shocked beyond belief so we have
01:59:20.880
to be able to see this trial and the word espionage should not be allowed to be used in the trial by the
01:59:26.320
prosecutor and if he does use it there should be a mistrial with prejudice why is this why is espionage
01:59:32.320
where did they even get that it's the name of the statute it's as if congress passed the statute
01:59:37.680
entitled the child molestation and insider trading act and they indict somebody for insider trading and
01:59:43.680
they go in front of the jury and say this man has been indicted under the child molestation
01:59:49.680
wow the name of the statute it was passed in 1917 to go after war resistors mostly religious people
01:59:56.800
who had a conscientious objection about going to the first world war and woodrow wilson passed the
02:00:02.960
espionage act which had very little to do with espionage it had mostly to do with dissent and
02:00:08.080
whistleblowing and all of the whistleblowers uh have been indicted under the espionage act i've
02:00:14.640
defended many anti-war protesters and other dissenters under the espionage act and the
02:00:20.160
government loves to use the word espionage but there's no allegation here that alan went to foreign
02:00:26.000
enemies real quick i've only got about two minutes uh we're talking to alan dershowitz host of the
02:00:30.560
der show it's podcast it's great also the author of get trump um tell me your thoughts on uh on hunter
02:00:38.800
biden and what what's just happened what's happened is we don't know uh if he just did the three things
02:00:46.160
he was indicted for then it's a fair plea bargain most people who are late in their taxes don't even
02:00:50.880
get indicted i do think that uh filing a gun license application if you're a cocaine addict and not
02:00:58.080
disclosing that is actually a more serious crime but that's a fair result but what about what he
02:01:03.600
wasn't indicted for what about the investigations that are going on about barisma about those alleged 17
02:01:11.280
tape recordings including two of the president what about uh the uh uh other information that we have
02:01:18.000
the laptop a laptop top we don't have anything about that and therefore i think there's a special
02:01:24.800
obligation on this prosecutor to issue a report he has to issue a report to garland but then garland
02:01:30.320
should make it public so we should know whether there was an adequate investigation from what he
02:01:35.760
was charged with the sentencing seems correct but if there was information that we don't know about
02:01:41.520
that would incriminate on these other things why would this thing take four years four years i can't
02:01:48.480
imagine the resources that they spent for misdemeanors well the only explanation is that they
02:01:56.080
did look into barisma they did look into the laptop and they found nothing and they found nothing
02:02:00.800
but i want to know that i want to see that with my own eyes i don't want to read that in the new york
02:02:05.280
times or msnbc or cnn i don't believe them i want to see it with my own eyes i want to hear that tape
02:02:11.840
with my own ears and i want to see the trial of donald trump on television so i can make a judgment and
02:02:17.440
you can make a judgment for ourselves we will believe our eyes not what we read in the paper i
02:02:23.440
will tell you that you are a great example of that just now i had a different opinion of what you had
02:02:31.360
said on donald trump than i do walking away of course my wife had the same thing my wife came to
02:02:37.360
me and said oh my god did you see what they say you said about donald trump i said that's the headline
02:02:42.560
read the read the article read the actual quotes and she reads the actual quote and said oh my god
02:02:47.520
he didn't say anything like that but cnn did that to me they doctored a tape of what i said on the floor
02:02:54.320
of the senate and made me say which i didn't say that a president could commit murder and not be
02:03:00.640
impeached they just doctored a tape and the times believed it and other newspapers believed it now there's
02:03:07.120
a lawsuit so you've got to see it with your own eyes more today than ever before alan dershowitz thank
02:03:13.360
you very much sir my pleasure thank you always great to have you on uh our sponsor this half hour is
02:03:18.720

02:03:33.200
reasonable seems reasonable um the day you walk out and you you to your car and you realize that

glass but it was an emergency and uh he stole everything in your car hopefully that's the day
02:03:51.680
you learn never leave your car uh you know in a bad neighborhood or important stuff in there

02:04:05.280
same stuff even worse your personal identity it's too late you have to learn this lesson before it

happens to you it's important to understand how cyber crime and identity theft affect our lives it's
02:04:21.840

happening and this is where lifelock by norton uh is so important and uh saves you so much money and

02:05:34.240
what alan dershowitz said well you're an incredibly flawed person and that's part of the reason why
02:05:39.440
that happened um i of course knew exactly what he said and was not surprised by any of it have you
02:05:44.640
ever uh heard the phrase i'm cutting your salary thankfully no but uh it's surprising in this
02:05:53.680
particular job it really is i will say listening to alan dershowitz i mean he you know he's very
02:05:58.160
good at laying this stuff out he's obviously a very successful lawyer have you ever done though a a
02:06:03.120
long form podcast episode with him no but i i should that would be fascinating because not only
02:06:09.280
is he's been there for so many important things i mean just honestly you could do i could listen to
02:06:15.840
an hour of him just talking about the oj of the oj thing or or his defense i mean we had him on when
02:06:21.920
you know he was being accused by one of the epstein accusers of really terrible things and we brought
02:06:28.400
him on we said hey we're gonna ask you the tough questions he laid out his defense we're like all
02:06:31.840
right well i don't know if he's telling the truth but but but but you know we we listened to him and
02:06:35.520
she she dropped she dropped it and she said i don't know if it was him yeah i mean that's yeah pretty
02:06:41.200
bad yeah you know he has can i ask you there's so much of this stuff it would be a fascinating here's
02:06:45.200
the one question i want to ask him alan you're in your 80s if if i were if the government was coming
02:06:53.440
after me my first call would be to alan dershowitz you're in your 80s dude did you raise up anybody
02:06:59.840
who do you trust who would you call is there anybody i hope there is i hope so too but how
02:07:06.880
frightening is that that name the attorney name the attorney that you would really trust to really
02:07:15.440
just fight all out and knows their business like alan dershowitz i don't know anybody question is does he
