The Megyn Kelly Show - Trump Investigation Circus, D.C. Corruption, and Saving America, with Glenn Beck

00:00:00.460 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.

00:00:11.860 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.

00:00:15.280 The fallout from the FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago continues and only seems to be getting worse.

00:00:21.300 Yesterday, FBI agents seized Republican Congressman Scott Perry's cell phone while he was traveling with his family.

00:00:28.640 He's head of the Conservative Freedom Caucus in the House.

00:00:31.980 And according to reports from the New York Post, when the FBI went into the Mar-a-Lago compound,

00:00:37.780 guess what they searched in addition to Donald Trump's office? Melania's wardrobe.

00:00:43.500 Okay, that was important, I'm sure. What's the endgame here? What is this?

00:00:49.980 I mean, if you're going to weaponize the DOJ and the FBI, shouldn't you be digging around places other than Melania's underwear?

00:00:54.600 But good news, inflation dropped to a low, low, low 8.5% in July. Oh, lordy. Excellent.

00:01:02.300 Joe Biden's very proud of himself. Still a 40-year high for the month, right?

00:01:08.200 So this is being spun as a victory. As a victory because it's not 9.1% like it was last month.

00:01:14.440 I mean, that's where we are right now.

00:01:15.520 Will the Inflation Reduction Act help? That's the Build Back Better Light that Manchin just agreed to.

00:01:24.600 Let's ask Glenn Beck. He's host of Glenn Beck, the Glenn Beck program, which airs right before this one on SiriusXM.

00:01:31.500 And he's with us for the full show today to discuss.

00:01:34.000 Welcome back to the show, Glenn, and thanks for doing double duty on Triumph today.

00:01:42.080 You are, you're welcome. I hope I have two hours of stuff I can add to your show.

00:01:46.760 I, you do, because I have so many questions that I want to go over with you.

00:01:50.180 All right. Before we get to the inflation reduction, it's so fun.

00:01:54.760 I love it.

00:01:55.580 Oh, no.

00:01:56.580 You'll just love when the lies built right into the title.

00:01:58.640 Right. Okay. But we've got to talk to the latest on Trump. So he it's amazing when I went back and

00:02:05.160 looked at the number of investigations that have been thrown against Donald Trump. All right. Now,

00:02:09.760 you know, the obvious ones to impeachments with failed convictions. Obviously, the January 6th

00:02:15.700 show trial that's happening right now. But just here's a sampling, okay, of what he's dealing with

00:02:21.300 right now. Several lawsuits over alleged 2020 election interference, criminal investigation of

00:02:27.200 Fulton County, Georgia. NAACP filed a lawsuit for allegedly interfering with the 2020 election

00:02:32.320 in violation of the Voting Rights Act and the KKK Act. Okay. Ten members of Congress have signed on.

00:02:39.020 Good old Representative Eric Swalwell is suing Trump in a separate lawsuit over January 6th.

00:02:43.720 Capitol Hill police officers have filed three separate lawsuits against him for incitement.

00:02:48.160 Two Metropolitan Police officers have filed lawsuits for emotional distress and physical damages.

00:02:52.620 The District of Columbia Attorney General Carl Rossin, a Democrat, said his probe into who incited

00:02:59.380 January 6th could lead to charges against Trump. His organization, the Trump Organization,

00:03:05.200 under investigation right now by the New York State Attorney General Letitia James,

00:03:09.340 trying to see whether he inflated his property values for investors and then deflated them on

00:03:13.280 federal tax forms. News on that just broke. Get to it in a second. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg

00:03:18.440 has a similar probe into potential tax fraud and financial crimes. He paused his grand jury

00:03:23.680 investigation in April or May, but says it's still open and he could still file a criminal charge,

00:03:28.140 depending on what Letitia James finds in the civil investigation. Westchester County,

00:03:32.480 New York DA's office launched an investigation into October in October into whether the Trump

00:03:37.240 organization misled officials about property values at Trump's national golf club. I'm not done.

00:03:42.540 There's the classified documents grand jury proceeding that allegedly led to the raid on

00:03:48.080 Monday morning. Mary Trump is suing Donald Trump for allegedly defrauding her from her family

00:03:52.400 inheritance. Eugene Carroll has filed a sexual assault case against him in the Southern District

00:03:58.120 of New York. Michael Cohen. Michael Cohen is suing Trump and others for allegedly retaliating

00:04:03.040 against him for his tell all book. Six protesters are suing Trump, accusing his security guards of

00:04:08.460 assaulting them outside of Trump Tower during a 2015 protest. There's a class action against Trump

00:04:12.260 organization saying they use their business as scam investors. Tenants are suing Trump for hiking

00:04:16.100 rents by inflating prices for appliances. There are more. So Trump gets dragged into a deposition

00:04:22.760 by Letitia James. It's stunning, right? Yeah, it is. I didn't I didn't know that. I know most people

00:04:29.620 haven't taken the time to actually look at it because it's too mind numbing and like brain hurts

00:04:33.020 your brain. And he decides to take the fifth with Letitia James today, who's looking into whether the

00:04:38.040 Trump organization committed fraud by overstating the values of some things with investors,

00:04:42.260 and de-stating them or understating them when filing for taxes. Who could blame him? Who could

00:04:50.120 blame him? No, I have to tell you, I talked about this on the air, and it's really important to

00:04:56.660 understand this because I think people people hate him so much. You either love him or you hate him,

00:05:02.420 generally speaking. And that has been in large part due to the way he behaves and the people missing the

00:05:14.820 fact that he does a lot of stuff just as comedy. But it is also because the press has made him into

00:05:23.640 such a monster. So people just think that they hate him for all kinds of reasons, you know, Twitter

00:05:29.040 and, you know, he's a fascist, etc., etc. But that's not why they're going after him. They have to destroy

00:05:36.560 him. I'm convinced, Megan, that the Great Reset is is the main reason why he had to be taken out of

00:05:47.820 office when he got out of the Paris Climate Accords and they knew that they're not going to

00:05:52.920 be able to bribe him. They're not going to be able to extort policy out of him. He's not going to play

00:06:00.460 ball. He does believe in America first, which is the exact opposite of what the the state wants to do

00:06:08.580 and giant corporations and all of the other countries, all the prime ministers, everybody's in

00:06:14.980 on the Great Reset. And so they have a new view of it. He it was supposed to go to Hillary Clinton,

00:06:22.320 who was all in. And so all of these things could have happened. He got in. He made us energy

00:06:29.760 independent, which was really a no go zone, not only energy independent, but a a net exporter of oil

00:06:39.160 that's going in the opposite direction. Plus, he's saying America first. They had to stop him

00:06:45.940 or the Great Reset would fall apart. That's why when John Kerry and Joe Biden first get into office,

00:06:54.600 John Kerry is speaking to the World Economic Forum, saying it's going to come fast and furious.

00:06:59.500 Sorry for that. And it's it's going to come at a breathtaking speed. The reason why these things

00:07:05.900 are being hammered in right now is because they now realize crap, people are on to us. They don't

00:07:13.920 want any of this stuff. And Donald Trump is still out there. And if he gets in, we know the gig is up.

00:07:22.240 We know it because he's not only not only America first, but he's also now personally deeply invested

00:07:31.800 in ratting these people out, finding them, arresting them or firing them one way or another.

00:07:39.540 And this whole thing is so fragile around the world that if America goes the opposite direction,

00:07:47.260 the whole thing's going to fall apart. They have personal skin in the game now. It's not just their

00:07:52.600 politics. It's themselves and their own jobs. You think about these people at the FBI, they know they need to

00:07:58.820 worry. Obviously, the people of the DOJ who are political and guided by that instead of the law

00:08:03.400 there, they've got to worry that the IRS agents that Joe Biden's about to hire, is Trump going to

00:08:09.140 keep those folks if and when he takes office again? And they all have real reason to worry.

00:08:14.400 Yeah. And the people that have done wrong and not been punished for it, you know, lying to the FISA

00:08:21.900 court, changing the. None of these people were fired. None of these people were punished.

00:08:26.700 And I don't count on the Republican Party, but I do believe that Donald Trump, because again,

00:08:36.360 he's personally involved and they have attacked him so much, he lives for the day that he can take

00:08:45.820 those people down. And I think they know that everybody knows if he gets back into power,

00:08:54.660 if the Republicans like Mitch McConnell are in, maybe we skate. But if he's in power and you get

00:09:01.320 these Trump people that are in Congress and the Senate, we may all be going to jail.

00:09:07.880 That's that's that's a strong argument for Trump over DeSantis in the eyes of a lot of Republicans,

00:09:14.180 because even though they they may love DeSantis, they want revenge. There are a lot of people are

00:09:19.480 so angry over the way Republicans have been treated. Trump has been treated how his first term,

00:09:25.740 as somebody said recently, was stolen from him in many ways with the Russiagate distraction,

00:09:30.520 which was which was fake. It was it did not hold up no matter what Joe Scarborough tells you

00:09:34.820 that they want. They want him to have the opportunity to have a second term and be

00:09:40.660 to exact revenge on their behalf and on his own against the people who put the country through

00:09:46.620 that for four years. So the I agree with you 100 percent. You're spot on. And that is one thing

00:09:54.440 that concerns me. And I have I was probably at a step with the audience yesterday because I was

00:09:59.680 talking about this yesterday. I want justice. I don't want revenge. I want truth. I don't want to be

00:10:06.780 right. And and if we and this is the the downside, the upside of Trump is, oh, he's going to get the

00:10:16.300 job done. The downside is I think it will be motivated by I'm going to screw I'm going to screw you to

00:10:25.360 the wall. OK, and that's why we don't have our juries decide and then have the the victim's family

00:10:34.880 assign the punishment. We don't do that in America because we don't want revenge. We want justice. And

00:10:43.000 uh, if if Donald Trump would remain tempered and justice focused, uh, then then maybe it would be

00:10:53.760 good. But I I'm concerned that there are too many Americans that have been trampled on for so long

00:11:01.920 that they want revenge. And that is not the American revolution. That is not the spirit of this country.

00:11:10.360 Spirit is truth and justice and the American way. Well, and forgiveness really at the heart of our

00:11:17.700 Judeo-Christian values. But I don't think people are in a forgiving mood on either side of the aisle

00:11:22.440 right now. They're angry because there's nobody asking for forgiveness. There's nobody. They're not

00:11:26.780 even recognizing that these things are wrong. It's just injury after injury after injury. And so it's

00:11:32.780 hard to give somebody forgiveness, um, when there can be completely re-injuring you every day in new

00:11:40.940 ways. We don't have to forgive those people. We do have to love them and treat them as we want to be

00:11:48.000 treated. That doesn't mean don't stand up against them. Doesn't mean don't do everything in your power

00:11:54.160 to stop them injuring you and our country. Um, but it does mean there are limits on how we act and react.

00:12:04.940 I don't know. I mean, it's really hard to look at Merrick Garland and feel love. You know, I feel

00:12:12.100 like he's completely bastardizing the, the, one of the most important institutions that we have in

00:12:16.140 America. And over what, if I take him at his word that this is about classified documents, which I

00:12:20.620 don't, I don't believe it for one second. I think it's about January 6th and the effort to find the

00:12:25.540 smoking gun they haven't been able to find, which is some proof of fraudulent intent on Donald Trump's

00:12:31.300 part. That's what they need to get him on criminal charges related to January 6th. They don't have it

00:12:36.220 because Trump, I believe, genuinely believed he won that election, genuinely believed it had been

00:12:43.160 stolen from him. He wasn't lying to his, his followers, to Georgia officials, to anybody when he said

00:12:50.040 this has been a fraud, it was stolen. And so Merrick Garland is not going to find the smoking

00:12:54.040 gun document that shows fraudulent intent because it wasn't there. But that's what I believe this

00:12:58.040 about. Having said that, let's take him at his word. It was about classified documents. Trump took

00:13:02.940 him, even though he's president of the United States and he can declassify it. Maybe he didn't cross the

00:13:07.260 T's and dot the I's because you have to do it in writing. Maybe he didn't do that. Maybe Merrick Garland's

00:13:11.240 so pissed off that the National Archives don't have all of their perfect files in the boxed line order

00:13:18.060 that they want them in, that he did the unprecedented thing of going into a former president's home in a

00:13:25.020 pre-dawn raid with 30 FBI agents to get the love notes. Right. And without it, without notifying the

00:13:33.520 current president. Right. Sure. So my point is, I don't feel love for that person. I feel that that

00:13:39.500 person has bastardized the Department of Justice and he has caused a fracture of faith in that really

00:13:47.120 important organization over what if you believe him over bullshit classified documents that he was

00:13:55.160 cooperating with. Donald Trump was it with respect to their return.

00:14:01.620 I'm not saying that we I'm not saying that you're going to love. We have to try to love our enemies,

00:14:10.560 because if we if we hate them, if we truly hate them, what are you going to do? Anger. It's

00:14:18.340 temporary. I know. But anger, anger leads to hatred. You know, all that stuff that Yoda used to say.

00:14:25.600 We just have to be really careful because I really, truly believe. I mean, Eric Swalwell said

00:14:31.800 something today or yesterday. We have chaos. You have it. Play it. We have it. Here it is. Soundbite

00:14:38.100 two. It's very clear that Republicans have recognized that they can no longer win elections

00:14:46.440 with votes. And so they're leaning in hard to try and win elections with violence. And they're

00:14:52.200 fomenting that violence right now with the threats they're making against the attorney general with

00:14:57.560 the online chatter that you continue to see with the failure to even condemn it on their side. And

00:15:03.540 I see it in my own social media channels where the threats have escalated since Donald Trump's

00:15:08.920 residence was searched. And this is who they are now. They are a chaos party. Oh, my gosh. Oh,

00:15:17.020 my gosh. Megan, you were with me at Fox. I used to say all the time the operative word when all of

00:15:24.280 this starts to happen is chaos. Chaos will be coming at you in all directions. And if you want

00:15:32.780 to be a part of the solution, you cannot be a part of chaos. Anything that leads to more chaos is

00:15:38.400 trouble. We know who the author of that is. This is a prime example of this is all the evidence you

00:15:46.340 need in my book to understand where they're going and who they are. Have you ever noticed that the

00:15:53.600 progressives always, always accuse somebody of what they're going to do or are doing? Yeah, they

00:16:02.140 they make that point. And then so you're in the you're in the place of going, well, no, that's what

00:16:07.880 you're doing. That's what you're doing. But it is true. Who's the party of chaos? Who is the one that

00:16:14.420 has led to chaos on our streets, chaos in our schools, chaos in our home, chaos with our doctors,

00:16:20.560 chaos with our churches, chaos with our jobs, chaos with our money, chaos with our relationships with

00:16:28.280 other countries, chaos with Afghanistan and Ukraine and Russia. Now, China. This is chaos. They are

00:16:37.580 leading to chaos to destroy the nuclear family. And that's not my opinion. Those are their words on the

00:16:45.320 left. They need the chaos. So what he's saying here is he's self-diagnosing. That's what they need.

00:16:54.160 And when when they are looking to create more chaos, that's why I say we can't we can be angry,

00:17:02.760 but we have to keep ourselves in check or we will become what we despise. And the only way to win,

00:17:11.100 I'm sorry, but Martin Luther King was right. Hate cannot be defeated by hatred. It will only be

00:17:19.240 with love, but firmness. I know exactly who I am. I know exactly who they are. And I will stand to my

00:17:28.700 last breath. But I'm not going to become you because my principles, the principles that come from

00:17:36.960 my Judeo-Christian upbringing and our Constitution. They're strong enough to stand on their own and

00:17:44.020 they're strong enough to stand against your lies. And I will work to thwart you, but I'm not going

00:17:50.560 to play your game because that's what you want. There's a lot in there. And the point you make

00:17:56.080 about how I don't know if it's projection or transference. There's a psychological term for

00:18:01.500 what he's doing there, but he's clearly doing it, accusing the Republicans of what he and his party

00:18:06.540 have been doing. And the thing that jumped out at me. OK, so he's he's objecting to threats and

00:18:12.800 chatter online. That sounds upsetting and no condemnation from party leaders. Justice Kavanaugh

00:18:19.420 would like a word. He'd like a word. Yeah. Yeah. As would all of the Supreme Court conservative

00:18:24.640 jurist. Right. Can you believe the nerve of him to say that? There was an article in Vox today

00:18:30.960 talking about how this undermining of the FBI and the DOJ and these American institutions is really

00:18:37.860 dangerous. You know, we need to have faith in the rule of law. I'm like, you just had about 10,000

00:18:43.920 pieces about how we can no longer have faith in the U.S. Supreme Court. They've lost their moral

00:18:48.760 authority. Like, could you please spare me the lecture? You wait a minute. Wait a minute. All the FBI

00:18:54.020 all they are are federal cops. Right. You just tried to get rid of all cops. You've been saying

00:19:02.340 for four years, five years, cops are bad. All of them. They can't be trusted. The judicial system is

00:19:08.560 all broken. Now you're trying to tell me that we're we're looking at the police or the cops in this place,

00:19:16.700 the the federal cops, the FBI, and we're questioning them. And we have real reason to question. It's not

00:19:26.120 like George Floyd. We were all against that. All of us. We agreed on that. And yet you turned it in

00:19:34.760 to split us apart. Here, all we're saying is, guys, this is very unusual. This has never happened.

00:19:43.740 We don't do it. We don't do it. And we don't do it for a reason. Donald Trump did not no matter what

00:19:50.300 he said. Lock her up. He didn't do it. Why? Because that's not what we do. You start going after

00:19:58.640 political enemies. And I and I've I've debated this with Mike Lee in our friendship, you know,

00:20:06.920 usually like at two o'clock in the morning. I I am. I believe that there is a two tier justice

00:20:14.680 system right now. There is the tier of I'm with the party. I'm politically correct and I'm fine.

00:20:22.340 I could skate on anything. Hunter Biden or my last name is Trump or I'm a Trump supporter and I can't

00:20:30.160 get away with anything. In fact, they accused me of things I never did. There's a two just a two tier

00:20:37.900 justice system right now. All we're saying is that's wrong. That's wrong. It was wrong when it

00:20:44.740 happened to blacks in the you know, in the past in America. It's wrong if it happens now. I'm just

00:20:51.860 taking what you people say you're for is real justice. You didn't like it when it was happening

00:20:59.260 to blacks. You didn't like it when it was happening. Neither did I. You didn't like it when it was

00:21:03.860 happening to innocent Muslims. Neither did I. What's the difference here? And for some reason, the the

00:21:12.440 average Democrat who I do not think is a leftist is not for all of this destruction. But for some reason,

00:21:21.200 and I think it's maybe fear, because what happens to us with fear, they cannot make that connection.

00:21:28.000 Look, we have all the evidence here. We know what's going on. We've seen this guy. I said to

00:21:35.280 Donald Trump recently, you have to be the cleanest guy on the planet. I heard that. Yeah, they've come

00:21:43.160 from so many different angles. That's the folly of thinking the smoking gun document is going to be

00:21:49.320 sitting down at Mar-a-Lago. I mean, they really must think he's an idiot, like a criminal,

00:21:54.580 a brilliant criminal mastermind who's also a complete idiot. I mean, this guy has been

00:22:00.760 investigated by every intelligence agency on the planet. If there was something dirty about him,

00:22:07.400 it would have come out already. I'm shocked that this amount of investigation on anybody,

00:22:13.060 but especially a guy who builds big buildings, you know, in New York. Hey,

00:22:17.640 help me out a little bit. You know, I'm shocked that he's this clean. We know this. And we also

00:22:26.680 know that the Justice Department, their latest excuse on Hunter Biden was we didn't want to bring it out

00:22:31.840 before an election, which was about this time, the last election year, because it could disrupt the

00:22:39.480 election. So we don't do that. Well, then what's the excuse here? What are you doing now? Now,

00:22:44.560 here we are within 90 days of the midterm elections. And that seems to be what was so imminent. I don't

00:22:49.300 I Trump wasn't even at Mar-a-Lago. Was he destroying documents via remote? Right. You know, via Zoom,

00:22:54.920 you know. And Megan, let me ask you this. Why are they? Why are they? What is their end game?

00:23:04.440 Because I can't come up with an end game here. You know, other than Trump. What? With Trump,

00:23:12.140 they just want to stop him from running again. He's growing. Yeah, I know. I know. They wanted

00:23:16.000 him to go away. They loved January 6th because they thought it was the end of him politically.

00:23:20.840 They were counting on it. And he's risen. He's risen again. And he's getting stronger by the day.

00:23:26.460 And his endorsement candidates are winning. And he's beating DeSantis at the CPAC straw polls by a mile.

00:23:32.560 And they're scared. Right. But hear me out. They don't have it. I mean, maybe they do.

00:23:40.420 You know, maybe they find Kathy Griffith's head in in his safe. And, you know, it would be ironic,

00:23:46.020 but also a crime. So maybe they have that. But I don't think they do. And if they knew they didn't

00:23:54.320 really have anything, they knew this wasn't really going to go anywhere. What are they doing? This was a I

00:24:00.200 think a there's a good chance that it was almost like a PR strategy. They couldn't convince the

00:24:06.880 American people that the half of the country were January 6th insurrectionists that want to kill

00:24:13.820 everybody and just hate everybody that's different. They couldn't do it. In fact, the trials as they

00:24:19.140 were going on, I think the people that believe that it was, you know, that that, you know, all the

00:24:24.940 people on the right or like that was like 46 percent. That number during the trial went down

00:24:29.960 to like 37 percent. So it wasn't working. I think their real goal on this particular raid,

00:24:37.560 when you can't find extremists, make them. And I think they are just trying to push our buttons,

00:24:47.560 hoping that somebody does something really stupid.

00:24:51.800 They want to foment violence. No, I love this theory. I love this theory. It's very interesting

00:24:56.560 to me because they're you know, they are suddenly drawing attention to rhetoric online about attacks

00:25:02.760 or war or what have you, something, you know, that they only care about it when it's against,

00:25:07.920 you know, when it's like a group of Trump supporters. Right. Obviously, as I pointed out

00:25:11.420 earlier, they don't care if you're harassing or trying to kill Justice Kavanaugh or one of the

00:25:16.120 other Supreme Court. Anybody else. That's no problem for them. But I do think just just a word

00:25:21.340 on the before we get to sort of fomenting violence, which is part of the plan. They want

00:25:25.980 him gone. And if they have to get him Al Capone like right, whether it's taxes through Letitia

00:25:31.300 James or, you know, what misstatements on his forms or the equivalent of a tax violation, keeping

00:25:37.240 the classified documents in his house, they'll do that. I do. I do think this is about January 6th

00:25:42.040 and trying to find the evidence of intent. Well, let's say it's about getting the classified

00:25:45.100 documents. As you know, there was a lot of chatter amongst Democrat politicians and pundits,

00:25:52.060 media types yesterday about there was gleeful chatter about Section 2071 of the classified

00:25:59.060 records, the Presidential Records Act, which says you can't keep the classified documents at your

00:26:03.460 house after you leave the office. And it's it says this 2071 says a convicted party under this

00:26:10.440 section can be fined or in prison, not more than three years or both, and shall forfeit his office

00:26:14.740 and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. So they're they're not pausing

00:26:21.380 to say, OK, maybe Merrick Garland and the FBI are misusing this statute with a whole goal of

00:26:30.680 disqualifying. They're skipping over the politicization of the DOJ and the FBI and going right to

00:26:36.180 crates. Yes, let's do it. Mark Elias, Clinton's campaign lawyer. This guy, he pushed this deal

00:26:43.380 dossier. He's already, as Jonathan Turley was pointing out in his website today, may have lied

00:26:48.180 about he's been sanctioned in court for his conduct. He another guy named Harry Lipman suggesting this is

00:26:54.120 the plan of the DOJ to end Trump's political career, quote, so this could be the whole enchilada

00:26:59.520 in terms of DOJ resolution. They don't care that it's being politicized. They just want the ends

00:27:04.440 justifying the means. So what is the end game here? I've played this out. So let's say that's

00:27:10.820 what they're doing. OK, so let's play this out and just look at all of the different possibilities.

00:27:18.600 You do that. Do you think that Ron DeSantis is not going to run because he will absolutely run

00:27:27.980 and he's methodical and he's not as easy as a target. So you think you can either buy him off,

00:27:35.680 which I haven't seen any evidence of that, or you can destroy him. I don't see anybody on the left

00:27:42.140 that could get that done. So that doesn't seem right. You don't have Donald Trump. Do you think

00:27:50.060 Donald Trump is going to do one of three things? Remain quiet and just drop out of sight to become

00:27:58.220 a very big advocate for Ron, become a very big advocate for Ron DeSantis and the Republican Party

00:28:06.360 or say the whole damn thing is dirty and I'm starting my own thing and he just splits us up again.

00:28:19.100 I think that's the more likely scenario because people will say the damn Republicans didn't do a

00:28:27.340 darn thing. They didn't do anything to stop this. They weren't even outspoken on it. Where was Mitch

00:28:33.380 McConnell? You have such low approval ratings in the voters like me of the Republicans. I haven't called

00:28:41.600 myself a Republican since Reagan, but now they're worthless. They're worthless.

00:28:47.880 I really think this is why you and I always get along. Yeah, they, they, the left always comes

00:28:56.140 up with these great evil, but great ways to where no matter what happens, they win. And I think they

00:29:05.240 are betting that if they get him out, he's then off the hook. I saw him at CPAC and there was one

00:29:14.060 place. He was really, really good. And you could tell, I mean, I, I watch him differently than other

00:29:20.740 people. And this is the second speech that I've stood behind him. And so I watch him, I watch his

00:29:27.820 body language and I watch how he's looking and who he's looking at in the audience. And, um, he was,

00:29:35.320 he was fishing. He was like, I'm throwing this out and I want to see what, what's the reaction. Um,

00:29:43.120 when he started talking about abolishing agencies, like the, um, uh, department of ed, the place went

00:29:50.360 wild. So he's, he's fishing now. And, uh, he, he is, he got to one place in his speech where he said,

00:30:02.000 um, uh, he, he got off prompter and he said, you know, they went after my son, my son who wasn't doing

00:30:12.100 anything that Joe Biden's son is doing or Nancy Pelosi's son. And they knew that it was a lie. We

00:30:19.140 now know they knew it was a lie. So they came after me and my family. They went after my son

00:30:27.660 and they didn't care about him just to get their way. And I thought this is wildly personal,

00:30:39.420 wildly personal. He's not going to stop. You get him out and he can't run. What do you suppose he's

00:30:46.140 going to do? And by the way, you're not going to use 2071 to get him out because the constitution

00:30:52.400 sets the requirements for one who is running for president, not some statue, not the presidential

00:30:58.680 records act that cannot override the, the U S constitution. And I think there will be a massive

00:31:04.400 legal battle. And I believe this Supreme court will not, will not say you can alter the constitution

00:31:09.680 by a statute in this way. Explain, explain this because you're smarter than I am. You understand

00:31:15.600 this stuff more than I do. Barack Obama left with 30 million documents and sent them to a warehouse

00:31:24.160 in Chicago. Nobody seemed to have a problem with it. The president decides what is secret,

00:31:30.760 what's not, what he's going to take, what's not. This has been up in the air and back and forth since

00:31:35.160 Nixon. 15 boxes does not seem. That's what makes this different. It's like people, you know,

00:31:43.020 Hillary Clinton has got, she's driving people to her website now to raise money for her pet causes,

00:31:49.060 her political causes, um, with her, but her emails cap and t-shirts, apparently they're sold out of the

00:31:55.560 caps, but you can still get a t-shirt if you would like one. Um, and so she's mocking the whole thing

00:32:00.700 like, Oh, you know, Oh, they made fun of me. You know, they came after me for my emails, but look at

00:32:05.340 what Donald Trump is doing. There's, there's a difference. The secretary of state cannot declassify

00:32:09.820 anything, but the president of the United States can declassify everything. So we don't know whether

00:32:16.980 he's done that or whether maybe he did it and he did it imperfectly, but that's the difference.

00:32:21.500 At least one of them between their two situations. That. And if I found out that in those 15 boxes

00:32:28.760 of documents, there were things that should have been classified and, um, he didn't declassify or didn't

00:32:35.900 do it the right thing, but he went the added step before you take that out of the white house. I

00:32:42.460 want you to cut off the top secret on the bottom. Okay. I want you to cut off the classification that

00:32:50.100 says, I can't take that. That's what Hillary did in the skiff. They would, they were stealing those

00:32:56.600 documents. That's different than a president who can declassify anything he wants. And even,

00:33:02.360 even if, I mean, this was his Southern white house. Yeah. CIA people, everybody, they have

00:33:09.340 classified documents at the house. Maggie Haberman of the New York times who, you know, is writing a

00:33:14.340 book on Trump and he has a Trump antagonist was talking about how we use Mar-a-Lago. You got people

00:33:19.180 walking around down there. You know, you got people coming into the, out of the club. I don't remember

00:33:22.800 that kind of concern when it was Hillary's server that was accessible by God knows who foreign

00:33:29.020 governments, right? Like it was completely poo-pooed as a non-story because they wanted her to win the

00:33:34.140 election. Now that it's Donald Trump, you know, you got everybody and anybody just, I guess, meandering

00:33:38.900 by president Trump's safe and Melania's closet. And suddenly the New York times is concerned. Yeah,

00:33:45.840 go ahead. And the, the other thing on this is the, uh, the ridiculous charge that he was flushing

00:33:53.760 things down the toilet. Yeah. I've seen the pictures. Okay. Yep. So he's got secret classified

00:34:02.080 documents, things that he was trying to hide. And he's such a brilliant, stupid criminal that he goes

00:34:09.320 and he takes it and he rips it up, takes it into the toilet, throws it there and then doesn't flush.

00:34:16.820 He just leaves it there. Well, he might've blown back by some blue bag. Right. Right. And he,

00:34:22.840 he didn't flush the second time. Sorry, Mr. President, me and my camera have to go to the

00:34:28.180 bathroom real quick. I mean, come on. This is ridiculous. Plus it's like, God knows what was

00:34:36.720 on those notes. Why the one has president Trump's handwriting all over it. So it truly could,

00:34:41.620 I was saying yesterday, it could have been like, don't forget to take the little blue pill.

00:34:44.760 And then he was like, I'm not turning that over to the national archives. Right.

00:34:48.680 Who the hell knows what was on there? There, I saw some, uh, I saw some, uh, things back and

00:34:54.940 forth yesterday online and I haven't done any investigation, so I don't know, but his ease,

00:35:00.480 his R's, his letters are different. His handwriting is different than what that appeared to be. I don't

00:35:08.420 know what was Photoshop, what wasn't. Yeah. Who knows? I mean, maybe it was like teenage girl,

00:35:13.100 you know, Mrs. Doug Brunt, Mrs. Douglas Brunt, Mrs. Right. Who knows me? Like Kim Jong-un. They

00:35:20.920 said it was love letters between Kim Jong-un today with a heart around it. Who the hell knows?

00:35:25.340 The speculation is absurd. We don't know what we're seeing, but we're doing 25 news stories

00:35:30.440 based on this one photo of, we don't have a toilet. Wait, standby. There's a lot to get to,

00:35:34.860 including. I want to talk about Nancy Pelosi, who yesterday had the nerve to come out and say,

00:35:39.240 no one is above the law. Okay. All right. We'll talk about husband Paul in two minutes. When we

00:35:45.740 come back with Glenn Beck, who is here for the full show. So Glenn, Nancy Pelosi, who doesn't regret

00:35:58.280 anything about her trip to Taiwan, by the way, I should, she's not going to pay any price for it.

00:36:02.760 Um, gave an interview to the today show and, and on MSNBC yesterday and was asked about the

00:36:09.240 the raid at Mar-a-Lago. And this is how she responded with respect to now I'm being above

00:36:14.700 the law. I just want to mention house Republican leader, your counterpart, Kevin McCarthy, put out

00:36:18.860 a statement responding to the search. And he said, in part, when Republicans take back the house,

00:36:23.800 we will conduct immediate oversight of this justice department, attorney general Garland,

00:36:28.900 preserve your documents and clear your calendar. Do you have a response?

00:36:32.600 Well, first of all, I think the Democrats are going to win the house. We've been prepared for

00:36:39.500 it, uh, for a long time. And now with what wrote, what's happening with Roe v. Wade and, uh, the

00:36:45.880 legislation that we are passing, I think that, uh, whatever the leader is saying is probably idle,

00:36:53.160 but nonetheless, uh, we believe in the rule of law and that's what our country is about. And no person

00:36:59.960 is above the law, not even the president of the United States, not even a former president of the

00:37:06.520 United States. If we only actually believe that I, this is, you know, you were bringing up, but her

00:37:12.500 emails, this is what drives people out of their mind. This is all people want. It's the same thing we

00:37:20.800 were talking about in 2008. We want transparency, transparency. We want to know if you're a bad

00:37:30.440 guy, I don't care what party you're from. I want you to go to jail because that's the only way we stop

00:37:39.700 corruption. This woman whose husband, whose son is involved, not to the extent of Hunter Biden,

00:37:47.880 Hunter Biden, the, the, the, the graft and just the possibility of someone, um, uh, holding him up

00:37:59.960 and blackmailing him. Dad, who's in, in, uh, in Congress. Let me give you, um, uh, Mitch McConnell.

00:38:08.860 Mitch McConnell is making money in China. He's got a sweet deal. I want all of it to stop. If you don't

00:38:16.700 go to jail for something that you did that I would go probably for the rest of my life,

00:38:23.200 there is no equal justice. You're talking to me. You actually have the balls. You run the Capitol

00:38:29.760 police. You are keeping people in jail without charge. You're, you're trumping everything up.

00:38:36.820 You're lying about it. Look, I was not for January six. I'm still not for January six for a week before.

00:38:44.600 I was saying, don't go. We can't have any violence. It's suicide. So what happens? They're putting

00:38:53.260 those people in jail. They're making grandma's pay. And they let thousands of people who were

00:39:01.300 looting, destroying over a billion dollars in damage to our cities. And you were bailing them out.

00:39:09.880 Don't talk to me about equal justice. Don't talk to me about the rule of law. This is the biggest

00:39:16.580 problem in America. There are two systems of justice and everybody else has to play by these

00:39:23.740 rules. And then people like Nancy Pelosi. And if Donald Trump were guilty of something,

00:39:29.560 I would be the first to say, impeach him. I'd be the first to say, arrest him. But you don't have

00:39:37.480 anything. You don't have anything. Well, and at some point, at some point, it needs to stop. I mean,

00:39:43.640 just a word on the investigations. At some point, you've taken enough shots and you've essentially

00:39:48.420 waived your right to continue taking shots. You've lost the faith in the American people. We can see

00:39:52.860 it's crossed over into persecution. It's too late for this. You can't keep doing this. We were open

00:39:59.180 minded. We listened on impeachment one. We listened on impeachment two. We were forced to listen on

00:40:07.380 January 6th primetime committee hearings, even though he had no defense. It's done. It's done.

00:40:12.640 I am over being open minded. Let's see what the. No, I don't need to see what the FBI had unless

00:40:18.480 they emerge out of there, like you said, with Kathy Griffin's head, then I will pay attention. But

00:40:22.440 otherwise, I have lost my open mindedness on what these officials may finally try to dig up on him.

00:40:28.160 They don't care. They're going in. They may not. They may have known for sure. Absolutely

00:40:34.240 positively. There's nothing there. They're going in and they're letting it hang out there and it will

00:40:41.460 convict him in the minds of their followers. The process just believe one thing. They raided his

00:40:49.080 house. They went in and took whole boxes of stuff. Who knows what were in those boxes? Who knows if he

00:40:54.820 he got rid of some of the things that they were really looking for? There is no end to this. This

00:41:01.220 is just a PR move. That's it. So let's talk about Nancy Pelosi for a second is just a little dive into

00:41:08.880 her situation with her husband. I mean, she has got some nerve. Her husband right now looking at the

00:41:14.080 cameras now and it's about the lot. Can I tell you, Paul Pelosi, as most people know, was pulled over for

00:41:19.520 DWI or DUI and decided to show his little police support card. It was his California Highway Patrol

00:41:29.020 Foundation card, which you're not allowed to do. If you support that group, there's a stipulation in

00:41:34.320 their bylaws that says you try to use that to get out of jail free. You're out. We don't want your

00:41:39.220 support. Can I tell you, for the first time in 30 years, I was pulled over in the past year, Glenn,

00:41:44.460 first beating. And my brother is a cop. I worked at the Fox News Channel for 14 years. I've been very

00:41:50.340 defensive of law enforcement on a lot of this nonsense that is said about them. Did I play one

00:41:54.780 of those cards? And by the way, I'm a big donor to the groups like this as well. Did I show a card?

00:41:59.260 Did I show my brother's badge, which, you know, he whatever? No, I did not mention any of that. I

00:42:04.120 didn't play the privilege card. Unlike Paul Pelosi, I went to court and I dealt with it there. And by the

00:42:09.140 way, I did fine. But Paul Pelosi not only tried to play the privilege card, but now he gets charged

00:42:15.300 with two misdemeanors where if you are Paul Smith, you're getting charged with a felony. That is a

00:42:20.740 felony almost without question. And already watchdogs, nonpartisan watchdogs are saying this smacks of

00:42:27.220 special treatment and it's wrong. So I don't want to hear her lectures. And by the way, same guy.

00:42:33.720 This is from the New York Post and just last month, July. Same guy. Paul Pelosi's been killing

00:42:39.240 it in the stock market in recent years, according to disclosure forms that just came out. His latest

00:42:45.200 home run snapping up between one million and five million in shares of the computer chip darling

00:42:50.080 Nvidia. I think that's how you say it on June 17th. His timing once again was impeccable.

00:42:57.100 He executed the trades just as Congress moves closer to passing tens of billions of dollars in

00:43:02.300 corporate welfare subsidies for U.S. semiconductor production. That's great news for Nvidia and

00:43:08.260 shareholders like Paul Pelosi. Since his bet, shares have risen nearly 10 percent. By my math,

00:43:13.960 he could have pocketed a quick five hundred thousand dollars. His wife is one of the richest

00:43:18.540 members of Congress. She she has an estimated network of more than a worth of more than a hundred

00:43:23.340 million dollars on an annual salary of about what a lucky guy. What a lucky, lucky guy who would have

00:43:30.740 seen that coming. By the way, did you know that her son was on the state plane when she went overseas?

00:43:38.380 Yes. He was dropped off. He was doing business over there. He's never held a job in his life.

00:43:44.980 Another hunter. He's another. Well, I mean, hunters in a special category. I don't know if there were

00:43:50.060 Russian hookers involved. Yeah. But I mean, this is crazy. You're being too hard on the Pelosi family.

00:43:57.220 She's long wanted to go there. She can see China from her house, or at least she saw it when she was

00:44:01.400 digging in the sand. Soundbite 10 is a must do. Stand by.

00:44:06.900 When I was a little girl, I was told at the beach if I dug a hole deep enough, we would reach China.

00:44:12.960 So we've always felt a connection there. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Who are these people? Who are?

00:44:22.860 Oh, my gosh. Who who could even watch this and say, I'm proud of my vote. I'm proud of my vote.

00:44:30.700 Yep. You know, I voted the right way when I voted her in. I did. Who are these people? I don't.

00:44:37.560 They're supposed to represent us. I mean, I know we have bad people, crooked people. But are there

00:44:44.820 really is this? You are. You are. Can we get you were dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb? Oh, my gosh. And I

00:44:53.200 don't know. Is she? And this is an honest question. Is she hammered all the time or is she losing it?

00:45:01.460 Is she becoming a Joe Biden where she's just because there are times where I'm like, you're either

00:45:06.560 hammered or it's time to maybe, you know, go home, Nancy.

00:45:13.980 Or maybe like too much Botox and like a lower portion of the face, which can really freeze

00:45:18.760 up like it can interfere with speech. She's never messed with a lower portion of your face

00:45:23.140 when it comes to Botox. These are the lessons you learn to be in a lady. Glenn, I don't know.

00:45:30.060 I thought that I thought that was fake when I first read about that China, you know, digging

00:45:34.480 to China. It's like, who hasn't used that stupid joke? Like with your kids at the beach

00:45:39.520 when they're dating. That's a freaking joke. That's not right. This is not a real thing,

00:45:44.020 Nancy. This is not why we go and we irritate the Chinese over Taiwan and we have our Yas Queen

00:45:49.420 moment. They come back and be like, no regrets. A childhood dream.

00:45:53.740 I was a kid and I had a bucket in the beach and that's why I thought I got to go to China

00:45:58.860 someday and possibly start a nuclear war because I feel that kinship from the that is insane.

00:46:05.100 But this is the same woman who stood in front of a bunch of priests and she said, you know,

00:46:11.920 I've always been I've asked I've been asked all kinds of stuff. But, you know, the the number

00:46:16.660 one question that people ask me is, what is what is my favorite word? And my favorite

00:46:22.800 word is the word.

00:46:27.100 I do. I do. First of all, the oh, it's and first of all, it's two words, not one. It's

00:46:33.660 two words. And do you really think people are coming up to her and asking her what's your

00:46:40.340 favorite word? Because I know, Megan, we've had so many conversations where we've just

00:46:45.220 concentrated on your favorite word or my favorite word. Good heavens, that's mine.

00:46:53.440 All right, Glenn, stand by. There's so much more to go over. We are going to talk about

00:46:57.740 the eighty seven thousand IRS agents that are about to come your way. Don't worry. It's

00:47:02.780 only for the rich. Really? Really? We'll take that up. And don't forget, you can watch and

00:47:08.900 listen to the Glenn Beck show and the Megan Kelly show right here on Triumph 111 on Sirius

00:47:15.480 XM. You can also check out our show on YouTube dot com slash Megan Kelly, where we are closing

00:47:20.980 in on half a million subscribers as we approach our first year on YouTube. So that's good.

00:47:25.520 We would love the support. We appreciate it. Go on over there and subscribe for clips and

00:47:30.980 for the full show and help us reach half a million. That would be a nice way to close

00:47:35.100 out the summer. We appreciate it. Let's spend a minute on the media. They're so

00:47:43.300 happy. They like that is it's Christmas in August to see the FBI raiding Donald Trump's

00:47:49.520 Mar-a-Lago compound. They couldn't give two dams how they get them. Just get them and get

00:47:54.180 rid of them. And case in point, you won't be surprised to see Rachel Maddow, who talked

00:48:00.680 about this moment as if it was the we won World War Two holding up the newspaper, you

00:48:06.940 know, iconic photo. Here she is putting her spin on the perspective you should have on

00:48:12.740 that radio watch. Tomorrow is the day when you're going to want to buy the physical copy

00:48:16.980 of the newspaper. You're going to want to buy it and fold it carefully, maybe put it in

00:48:21.840 a little archival paper or parchment. If you don't have that, you might, depending on how

00:48:26.300 saucy you're feeling, you might want to just note, perhaps in archival ink in the margin

00:48:31.500 of tomorrow's paper, note anniversary of Richard Nixon's resignation as president.

00:48:38.440 I mean, the reason you might buy tomorrow's paper is because if the world doesn't collapse

00:48:43.560 into ash by then, your grandkids' grandkids someday are going to look at that old physical

00:48:49.020 newspaper you were able to save from August 9th, 2022. And they are going to goggle at the

00:48:55.780 thought of what your life must have been like.

00:48:58.620 Mm-hmm.

00:48:59.040 Oh, my God.

00:49:00.520 They are.

00:49:01.900 She is, she's always been remarkable. You know, I go back to what we were talking about

00:49:08.800 last hour, Megan, on how they project. Your kids are going to, I've said this for a long

00:49:19.340 time, give your children and your grandchildren something to be proud of. That when, in fact,

00:49:25.760 fascists or communists or anyone that wanted to take away the rights of the people and put

00:49:32.180 it in the hands of the experts, whenever they came around, you stood up. You fought against

00:49:38.460 it. You took the arrows. You took the slings. You were the one that was made fun of. You

00:49:44.000 were the one that was called names. They tried to run you out of society. Maybe they did.

00:49:48.920 Maybe I lost my job for it. But my grandparents, they stood. Give your kids that opportunity.

00:49:57.340 With Rachel saying this about Donald Trump, where is her party leading America? Where is

00:50:06.820 it? Is it becoming a better place or a worse place? When I mean that, what I mean by that

00:50:10.980 is, a more free place. Are children going to be freer or less free? Because what she talks

00:50:18.520 about, the kind of America they want, is one where people like her, you know, the people

00:50:23.880 who know, they, yes, of course, we're going to control their lives over there because they

00:50:30.180 don't get it. You know, they don't believe in global warming. No, I believe in global warming.

00:50:35.780 I just think you're avoiding all of the things that could help on global warming because of

00:50:41.440 politics. I'm all for nuclear energy. I'm for hydrogen. Those would work. You instead are

00:50:49.060 using all of these things for more control. I think her children or grandchildren or nieces

00:50:56.580 and nephews or whoever, I think they're going to look back on this time in 50 years and go,

00:51:02.740 oh my gosh. I think they're going to say, what? Huh? What happened? This is not going to amount

00:51:09.380 to anything. They're going to be like, stop boring me with these stupid old yellow newspaper

00:51:14.740 articles. First, you made me read one about Cassidy Hutchinson, and now you're making me read this

00:51:19.600 one. Just let me live my life. I pity her. So yeah, the media is excited. And, but I do want to get

00:51:29.220 back to the Swalwell line. We've heard it from people like Scarborough. GOP is violent and we're

00:51:36.980 going to see more violence. By the way, on your point about the fascists, Scarborough was making

00:51:41.500 the point about the Republicans being the fascists. Here was, here's what he said. This is from his

00:51:46.980 show yesterday. Soundbite. Bye. This thing that this GOP represents under its current leadership

00:51:56.340 is now increasingly more dangerous than it's ever been. And that is profoundly important

00:52:04.500 to understand right now. You know why? Because they're fascists, like people that are making the

00:52:11.020 threats, the people that helped Donald Trump on January 6th, the people that were talking

00:52:17.400 about coming to D.C., that it was going to be crazy, that it was going to be wild. They

00:52:22.520 were going to charge the cap. They're fascists. And so they're making fascist threats. And

00:52:27.340 we need to do what the United States has always done. We need to confront fascism and defeat

00:52:32.820 it. So everybody that's freaking out over fascists being fascists. Well, guess what? That's

00:52:38.900 what fascists do.

00:52:41.020 Oh, my God.

00:52:42.880 They don't have any idea. First of all, the Great Reset is fascistic. It is the textbook

00:52:47.840 definition of fascism. The president is talking about public-private partnerships. He is in

00:52:56.020 a public-private partnership with Twitter and Facebook. We know this. They call each other.

00:53:01.760 How can we help you, Mr. President? I need you to silence these voices. That is textbook fascism.

00:53:08.540 What they're doing with the 87,000 IRS agents. That is textbook fascism. They have no idea what

00:53:18.760 that is. There was an article today that came out from the Washington Post. Today is war. That's

00:53:26.400 all you'll get on today's show. Right-wing podcaster Stephen Crowder announced to his two million

00:53:31.840 followers on Twitter. 9.42 p.m. Monday, Charlie Kirk, leader of the conservative group Turning Point

00:53:38.800 USA, held its annual gala at Mar-a-Lago, tweeted, the people who did this want to stoke civil conflict.

00:53:45.160 Don't fall for it. Oh, my gosh. Sounds like a fascist. No. No. No. Nope. Neither of them do.

00:53:53.460 Neither of them do. When you are trying to stifle anyone who disagrees with you, that should be a sign

00:54:02.060 maybe you're leaning towards fascism. I never want to stifle anybody's point of view. I, if anybody,

00:54:11.360 I just tell my children this all the time. Anybody who ever tells you, don't read that. Don't look

00:54:16.040 into that. Oh, don't pay attention. Disregard them. Read that book. Read that book. Read the

00:54:24.180 books that they also say you should read. Read everything you can get your hands on. The only

00:54:29.120 way we make actual progress is to debate and discuss and to throw out crazy ideas. These people,

00:54:37.620 the real fascists today, and it's not just fascism, it is a religion. It is truly a religion. This

00:54:46.080 wokeism, the religion of the planet, all of this stuff, it is telling you, don't question. You can't

00:54:55.380 ask. You can't violate and step out of line one inch or you will, too, be burned at the stake.

00:55:03.600 I don't understand how Americans don't see that. And one other thing on this clip.

00:55:10.960 When you label somebody fascist and you are talking about them as a whole group of people,

00:55:21.220 I try to stay away from Democrats. Leftists, true Marxist leftists are in a completely different

00:55:30.220 category than than the Democrats. And that's why I keep asking, where are the good Democrats that I

00:55:37.560 know exist in the center of the country, on the coasts, that don't want any part of stifling people,

00:55:43.480 don't want any part of any of this stuff? Where at what point are they going to go? Oh, wow.

00:55:51.440 Uh, that's not what I thought they were talking about. They're starting to. I think I think there's

00:55:58.140 there are a lot of good Democrats out there who have had it with this nonsense and COVID pushed them

00:56:01.680 over the edge. You know, the nonstop. We just the three doctors who did the Great Barrington

00:56:06.420 Declaration, you know, that called for focus protection. Let's focus on the old people.

00:56:10.040 Why are we closing schools and so on? They just filed a lawsuit against the government saying you

00:56:14.620 coordinated you, Fauci, the NIH, the Biden administration, you coordinated with these

00:56:20.600 online social media companies to stifle us, to stop our point of view from getting out there.

00:56:25.360 I mean, it's in the emails between Fauci and Collins at the NIH saying like they need to be

00:56:30.260 silenced. We need to make basically pariahs out of these guys. That is fascism. These are Stanford,

00:56:36.360 Harvard. I don't want to Berkeley, whatever physicians who had a different point of view that

00:56:41.680 was shut down because our overlord Fauci decided it was too dangerous to be allowed. You can't

00:56:47.120 when the government interferes like that, that's a first speech, a First Amendment free speech

00:56:50.320 violation. And I'll tell you, Megan, what's amazing is I just read a study from the NIH over in England.

00:56:59.300 There was another study in Sweden and another one in Finland about this gender affirming care.

00:57:06.720 Trans thing, yes. Yeah. And I have never seen anything so sad, pathetic and telling as when they

00:57:18.100 said this must stop and we have to reevaluate everything we're doing. It only in the most extreme

00:57:28.260 cases. Can we look to anything other than care and psychiatric care? And when you get past all of

00:57:37.860 that and it's an extreme case, then maybe we'll consider. But it's all got to stop.

00:57:42.780 Yeah. The medical transitioning of minors. Yeah. It should stop. It should stop. Stop.

00:57:48.060 And they were talking about how the new studies are out and it shows that they were wrong on the

00:57:52.960 first study. Things have changed in society. And it said, however, the Americans are doubling down.

00:58:03.460 We cannot go the way of the Americans. When Sweden, who has always been held up as the perfect

00:58:13.080 dream medical society, when they're coming out in Finland and England are saying the same thing

00:58:20.560 and we act like Sweden didn't exist during COVID, that they were crazy, but then they just disappeared.

00:58:27.840 We didn't even talk about them anymore. And when you have Europe looking over to us and saying,

00:58:33.040 this society is starting to push poison out. It's really dangerous. Don't do it.

00:58:38.160 That should be a little more jaw-dropping to the average American.

00:58:43.200 And it's not like you're talking about how, you know, you should really go with Lipton instead of

00:58:47.600 Nestle iced tea. Right. We're talking about the well-being and health, mental and otherwise, of children.

00:58:57.120 You can't get this wrong. It's the violation in many ways of the Nuremberg laws. You cannot take

00:59:07.500 experimental things. And in the case of COVID, force it on the people. You can't force them to take

00:59:15.040 something experimental. Our government did that with these COVID vaccines. And let's assign all of

00:59:22.960 the best intentions to everybody. At some point, there's enough evidence that, wait a minute,

00:59:29.020 wait a minute, this is not exactly what we thought it was. That should have been lifted immediately.

00:59:34.720 They're still going full force while Europe is saying no one under 18 is to take this.

00:59:40.800 There's just too many risks of taking it and not enough risk of not taking it.

00:59:46.220 Right. And even when they give it for a long time, they were saying, well, we'll give it at a 10

00:59:50.640 CC, whatever the level is, and not a 30 for children. And over here, like, no, you will have the full dose

00:59:57.500 twice without considering that science that's led them to push for the lower doses. And it's like,

01:00:03.680 oh, are you going to be there? If something, God forbid, were to happen to my child,

01:00:07.000 would you be there for me? No, you wouldn't. And you know what you would do? You'd kick him out of

01:00:11.280 the trial size that you were using. If you're Pfizer, you wouldn't report him as a negative

01:00:15.800 result. And you would say that I was a lunatic when I tried to post about it on VAERS. We all know

01:00:20.900 that's how they operate. The trust is gone. You know, what's what's what's frightening about that

01:00:26.380 trust is it's gone absolutely everywhere. And so if something else comes up, they're going to have to

01:00:34.640 force people to do it because who's going to trust anyone. And this is where I think the average

01:00:41.540 American really is on almost everything. Look, if if if they were doing experiments over in Wuhan

01:00:50.680 and they would have come out immediately and said, OK, we were doing gain of function,

01:00:55.660 you know, and it got out. And if this is a mistake, I think Americans would not have wanted to,

01:01:04.400 you know, tie him to a stake. There would have been consequences. But I don't think we would have

01:01:10.060 tied him to a stake when they have lied about the origins of this and and lied repeatedly and destroyed

01:01:20.240 everyone and then lied about the testing and the research and and, you know, tried to hold it for

01:01:27.860 75 years and then forced everybody along the way. You lose your goodwill. And on top of it,

01:01:36.720 Americans don't believe that we're ever going to stop and look back and go, OK, who did what was

01:01:44.760 right, who did what was wrong and punish the people who did right and exonerate the people

01:01:51.840 or punish the people who did wrong and exonerate the people who were who were right.

01:01:57.700 No, I mean, from from the fact that nobody got fired after Afghanistan to the fact that nothing,

01:02:02.380 the second largest teachers union just reelected Randy Weingarten. They want the same mistakes

01:02:07.520 repeated. Clearly, they're not they're either not upset about them or they just don't care because

01:02:12.480 party affiliation is more important to them. But what you're saying, Glenn, brought up something

01:02:17.140 I wanted to talk to you about. So the trust is gone. Trust in institutions that we never used

01:02:23.180 to question the NIH, the FBI for the left, the Supreme Court. And I think about it with respect to

01:02:31.520 Trump, because I do think his chances of winning improve greatly this week. I don't think they'll be

01:02:36.920 able to disqualify him. I don't think he's going to be convicted of a crime. I don't think he's going

01:02:40.800 to be charged with a crime. And I don't think they did. They've made him into a martyr.

01:02:46.280 100%. So his chances are better than they've than they've ever been. Yep. And I understand that. And

01:02:52.560 I understand the need to put him back in there. And, you know, virtually every Republican or

01:02:56.580 independent, well, at least Republican would vote for him over over Biden. The swing voters

01:03:03.820 reportedly preferred DeSantis. But in any event, let's say it's Trump who gets the nomination.

01:03:08.760 If they don't have DeSantis as an option, they're going to choose Donald Trump over Joe Biden.

01:03:13.020 Then what? Oh, yeah. The left. Like, I worry about what they're going to like. They accuse

01:03:20.340 the Republicans of being the party of chaos and wanting to foment violence, as you pointed out

01:03:24.240 earlier. I don't know what they'll do if Donald Trump actually wins this next presidential run.

01:03:31.240 So, Megan, we've talked about this before and and I have I've looked insane mainly because my timing is

01:03:41.780 all screwed up. I thought this was going to happen a long time ago. My timing is all screwed up. But

01:03:46.820 this is what I was talking about when we were at Fox, the complete breakdown of top down, bottom up,

01:03:55.060 inside out, that you have enough people in the government that are for a revolution and they're

01:04:02.840 working and coordinating with people down on the ground and everybody is in chaos. At some point,

01:04:10.380 the the top starts to come down. The people rise up and the average person says, just make it stop.

01:04:16.780 We're at that point right now. And they know it. This this is the way these things happen over and

01:04:23.340 over and over again. And you have to add on top of it now the impoverishing of the American people.

01:04:29.960 Yeah. These one hundred and eighty seven that that is the combination is now about one hundred and

01:04:36.780 sixty thousand IRS agents. That's about the size of our entire National Guard. That is a personal

01:04:47.560 administrative police force. Why does the Department of Education need a ours? What? Why do they need

01:04:57.260 those? Why are all of these agencies? I mean, I understand it with maybe, you know, the FBI and

01:05:04.560 the Department of or the, you know, the alcohol, tobacco and firearms. I get it. Border Patrol. Sure.

01:05:12.600 The Department of Education, the IRS. Why? And if you understand the Great Reset, it's so clear

01:05:23.760 their goal is to sell as a good thing by 2030. Now, think of this. This is a goal they set out

01:05:31.460 two years ago. So it's not like it was way, way back two years ago. They said by 2030,

01:05:37.480 you will own nothing and you will like it. Well, my thought when I first read that was that's crazy.

01:05:46.420 It's not who said that where specifically. Who said that? That's Klaus Schwab. Just go to

01:05:52.440 World Economic Forum dot org or com, whatever it is, and look at their ads for the Great Reset.

01:05:59.480 You will own nothing and you will be happy by 2030. You you can't just get people to change their minds

01:06:08.880 on ownership that fast. You have to impoverish them. If you look at what we're doing, let me look

01:06:16.860 at the way we are spending. We sell all of our strategic, not all, but we sell a good deal of

01:06:22.640 our strategic oil reserves. We send it overseas and everything else. That's strategic oil reserves.

01:06:28.720 At a time when they're talking about, oh, you know what? They might use nukes. What are we doing?

01:06:34.500 We keep the strategic oil reserve. OK, but he wanted to lessen the price of gas. Sure. Then he

01:06:41.120 releases all of this a million barrels a day until October. And then he says, I'm going to also start

01:06:49.480 buying oil. Now, we bought that oil at two dollars a barrel. I mean, yeah, two dollars when it was two

01:06:56.240 dollars a gallon. We're buying it now at four or five dollars a gallon. And we're putting that oil

01:07:01.480 in there. So the government has taken away your ability through inflation and everything else,

01:07:08.980 your ability to buy gasoline and go do the things you want to do. And they've become the number one

01:07:17.020 buyer and they're buying it at a higher price, which is coming again from you. They're controlling

01:07:24.380 these things like chips. I'm all for we. Yes, we should we should make our own medicine, our own

01:07:31.000 chips. We should be independent as much as we can still be part of a global community, but make

01:07:38.220 important things also here. The government has now decided what chips, who's going to make them.

01:07:46.380 They're going to spend all of the money on it. Well, who's directing this now? Is it the free

01:07:53.380 market or is it the government? The government is becoming the buyer and the biggest buyer in the

01:08:00.560 world. They will set the agenda of what's made, what's sold, what's not by taking our money and

01:08:08.400 spending it and not having us be able to spend. I here's where I differ from you and I get the

01:08:16.740 world economic forum and the great reset and we're going to rebuild from covid and we're going to be

01:08:22.200 green and we're going to have ESG. The corporation is going to be woke and it's going to be this left

01:08:27.220 wing utopia. But when you talk about like and I hadn't heard that about the Department of Education

01:08:32.020 getting seven giving, getting guns. But this is where I I wind up getting confused.

01:08:40.940 I can't. These government bureaucrats are not smart enough to run a decent health care program

01:08:49.000 or transportation program or tax program. How on earth could it? Could they ever coordinate a massive

01:08:56.760 reset of the American way of life or use guns or force to actually ever take over individual

01:09:03.820 businesses or like there's no master plan that's coordinated to decimate the economy? It's I think

01:09:11.020 I think it's their left wing beliefs in this weird utopia that just lead them to do these policies

01:09:16.420 that are detrimental. I think that is the average person. But may I ask you a huge favor? Please read

01:09:25.540 my book. When you read my book, then we should have a conversation. But that is not my opinion.

01:09:31.980 That's all of their words. I mean, Vivek Rameshwamy was just on today. He started a new fund for our

01:09:40.100 energy sector. It's the same as BlackRock's and the same as Vanguard, same companies. But what Vanguard

01:09:47.980 and BlackRock have done is they've taken the voice of the shareholder and they've done it at the state

01:09:55.580 level. So when Texas decides to invest its retirement funds, it goes to Vanguard or BlackRock

01:10:03.120 and they have given them their their voice with each share. And so these companies are coming in,

01:10:10.800 Vanguard and BlackRock, and they are controlling these companies because they have enough shares.

01:10:16.160 And they're all saying you're going to get out of the oil business.

01:10:19.620 Yes. They're saying you're not getting our money unless you are your social views are exactly what

01:10:26.700 we want them to be. And that means correct. Pro renewables, pro Black Lives Matter, pro trans

01:10:31.940 medical care for for minors and so on. Like they'll pick the social issues that are important to them.

01:10:36.140 And then these guys have got the corporations by the you know what.

01:10:39.360 Right. And so what Vivek is doing is he's trying to use the capitalist free market system

01:10:47.400 against them. He's saying, look, I'm I'm going to be saying you put your money in the same companies,

01:10:55.320 but you put them through us. Our voice is do what's right for your company and the country.

01:11:03.640 Make an excellent company. And by the way, it's what DeSantis just announced in Florida,

01:11:10.620 where he's saying to all the state funds, you may not consider anything other than shareholder

01:11:15.620 value and making your investments. Try to get us the biggest return you can when you're using our

01:11:21.060 pension money to make investments until the people collect on it. And and he tried to discourage

01:11:26.900 other outside businesses, not just the state run from doing that in Florida. But there's a real

01:11:32.100 question about whether I think that's going to hold up because that's him sort of internally inside

01:11:37.120 Florida. It'll hold up. But when he's trying to tell other corporations, you can't use those

01:11:40.960 criteria inside Florida. It's like free speech, you know, black, black rock can do. No, I don't need

01:11:46.940 to read your book to know the law. Black rock can do what it wants to do. Yes, it can, but not when

01:11:51.920 it's colluding with other other banks, other hedge funds and with the government. That's when it gets.

01:11:59.280 This is not the free market system. This is collusion with the government and an industry,

01:12:05.960 a whole industry of. Well, they are pushing the Biden administration's agenda. That is true.

01:12:10.160 I mean, that's one of the problems. It's really it's it's it's very well done. And I'm not saying

01:12:16.540 that they're going to accomplish these things. The more people understand what their goal is and how

01:12:22.940 it works. I mean, honestly, Megan, I don't think they can accomplish what they do. I think they can

01:12:29.800 accomplish it for a little while, which will, for instance, why are all the farmers overseas

01:12:35.160 protesting that they are being told through ESG and the Great Reset people in each country?

01:12:43.440 You can no longer use this kind of fertilizer. Well, that produces a third of our crops. We lose

01:12:52.320 a full third of our crops if we don't use that fertilizer. And this kind of top down thinking

01:13:00.040 with experts who are not actually in the game will lead to starvation. People will die of heat.

01:13:08.200 They'll die of of cold. It will kill a lot of people. It won't work in the end because it it

01:13:17.080 can't work. There is a there if you go to the world economic forum dot com or org look up their

01:13:23.840 food plan. It is a plan to transform the way the world grows its food. In their words, from seed to

01:13:33.640 plate. What? And by 2030, 2035, you're going to completely redesign how our food is grown, where

01:13:44.640 our food is grown, how it is harvested, how it's processed, how it is moved from place to place,

01:13:52.880 who gets it, all of that. There are so many things that could go wrong. And especially with people who

01:14:00.680 are doing it all top down and and have such an ego, it's not going to work. But in the meantime,

01:14:07.000 it's going to destroy so much. It's evil. It really is evil. Well, we've seen the preview in places like

01:14:14.900 Sri Lanka in the Netherlands. That's it. Of where that approach gets you. You go to the World Economic

01:14:21.100 Forum and you will find well, you would have found a story. I pointed it out the day that Sri Lanka was

01:14:27.680 was kicking their guys out. There was an article on the World Economic Forum that came out five years

01:14:33.660 before and it laid out the entire plan. And the headline was how we're going to make Sri Lanka rich.

01:14:41.680 And it was the model for the Great Reset. They did everything. And then those same people abandoned

01:14:49.440 them. They wouldn't give them loans, nothing. They did exactly what they were told to do.

01:14:55.040 So they collapsed. And that, by the way, I was talking about it on the air. And within the hour,

01:15:01.300 the World Economic Forum had removed that story from their website.

01:15:06.420 Well, I was like Black Lives Matter with its plan to destroy the nuclear family. I had an argument

01:15:10.240 online with some moron from MSNBC who was saying, that's not a goal. That's not a goal. I'm like,

01:15:15.360 it's right there on the website, which it was. And then shortly thereafter, it was gone because a lot

01:15:20.260 of people had started noticing it. Yeah. But the record is there. And I understand the goal is

01:15:24.480 there. But I do, you know, notwithstanding all of that, I still wonder on a person to person basis,

01:15:32.640 what would happen in this country if we reelected Trump? I understand the right would be very

01:15:37.780 disappointed if he didn't get it. But I think this will drive the left over the edge. I don't think

01:15:44.200 they can handle it. I don't I genuinely don't know what to expect from them if he gets the

01:15:50.340 nomination. Like I would genuinely fear for President Trump's life if he got the nomination

01:15:54.280 and we're leading in the. I fear for it now. I fear for it now. Yes. But I it would be next level

01:16:01.340 if he actually, you know, became the guy that the polls. I mean, I have to tell you at CPAC

01:16:06.260 I'm down. The most recent one, Trump, 69 percent. DeSantis, 24 percent. That's up from February

01:16:14.480 where Trump had 59 percent. DeSantis had 28 percent. So he's basically 70 percent want Donald Trump.

01:16:20.580 And yes, by the way, the January 6th hearing. Listen to this fascinating poll by Monmouth

01:16:24.600 Monmouth today. He might yesterday. January 6th hearings have no impact on opinion. None.

01:16:32.140 I thought it actually made it go down. Maybe I saw another poll, but tiny, tiny bits. But it's

01:16:38.760 it's incredible when you look. OK, January 6th was a riot before 65 percent believe that after

01:16:45.760 only 64 percent. Now it was an insurrection. Used to be 50 percent believed it. Now 52 percent believe

01:16:52.000 that it was a legitimate protest. 34 percent believe that before the hearings. Now 35 percent believe

01:16:57.700 that. Right. Like on and on it goes down the line. They've done nothing. So Trump grows. He grows in

01:17:04.700 power. He becomes a martyr. He's ascending as we speak to the top of the party again. He is likely

01:17:12.220 to be the Republican nominee. And with Joe Biden in the condition he's in, there's almost no chance.

01:17:19.920 I don't even know if he'll make it physically and otherwise to a reelection, which and the Democrats

01:17:24.820 chances go down once you go down the line of power. So. So I'm worried without commenting on whether I

01:17:31.880 think he should win or lose. I'm just worried. Let me ask you this. What happens to the country?

01:17:38.880 Joe Biden. Let's just say the Republicans take control of the House and the Senate. I don't think

01:17:45.300 that's I don't think that's out of the realm of possibilities, but I wouldn't count on it.

01:17:50.400 They now have impeachment power. They start going after Hunter Biden. And I'm telling you,

01:17:56.540 it's there. It you can prove the linkage between Joe Biden, Hunter Biden and China and and the big

01:18:04.940 guy. Yeah. I mean, it's there. So they impeach him. OK, now your president is President Harris.

01:18:14.620 God help us all. I mean, I don't even you know, when she sat last week and said, my name is Kamala

01:18:26.800 Harris and my pronouns are and I'm the one at the end of the table wearing a blue suit. I thought, are we

01:18:35.020 in you're probably too young to remember this? Are we in romper room? What is this? These people are

01:18:41.980 morons, morons, completely out of touch. What happens there? How do we get past that one?

01:18:50.920 And with Trump, you know, this and forgive me, Megan, I've been on the air since eight this

01:18:56.520 morning. So if I've told this story, I know I told it once today. I don't know if I told

01:19:00.180 on your show, my show, but so stop me if I have. OK, you remember when I did the pendulum

01:19:05.160 at Fox? Do you remember that episode by any chance? I put a giant pendulum from the ceiling

01:19:14.120 at Fox and I swung it from left to right and I kept pushing it on each side. We would push

01:19:21.620 it a little harder and the swing would get wider and wider. And the average person is standing

01:19:28.000 in the middle. And they're looking at that going, I'm not over there, but I'm also not

01:19:33.400 over there. The problem with this is as you continue to push the edges farther out, you're

01:19:41.400 going to I remember so many times saying it's not even about President Obama. If you push people

01:19:49.120 this far, there's going to be a equal or greater reaction and response. And then when you put that

01:19:58.000 person in, there's going to be an even greater or equal response on the other side. And this

01:20:03.940 pendulum at one point, one of the extremes just grabs it and then it stops and you've lost your

01:20:11.280 freedom there. We're at a place where there is no good answer other than God and humbling ourself

01:20:20.420 and and being righteous people worthy of freedom. I honestly don't know how we save this

01:20:27.840 country except in scraps and bits. But it can happen. I expect miracles, but only if we live a life

01:20:37.060 where we're worthy of it. And honestly, only if we are part of the solution and adding more chaos is not

01:20:44.980 it. I can't predict. You know, I'm so torn. If I had my druthers, it would be Ron DeSantis.

01:20:53.960 However, as I say that, there's a part of me that says, I don't know. I mean, I know he's up to the

01:21:00.920 job. I see what he's doing. But Donald Trump said to me, Glenn, I knew I was up against it, but I

01:21:07.200 didn't realize I would be fighting for my life, my family's life every second of every day.

01:21:15.340 It is Ron prepared to do what he has to do. And can he get the Republicans on board? You know,

01:21:26.320 I don't know if Trump can get the Republicans on board. You have to have the Republican Party

01:21:32.920 or at least enough people on board just to be able to fire and clean house.

01:21:39.600 Or you need a Congress that has a spine that will at least say, you know what, IRS? We're not giving

01:21:48.500 you the money for the 87,000 people. And we want to see how you are cleaning house. We'll release money,

01:21:55.580 but we have the power of the purse. You know what, Pentagon? Stop this woke business and start

01:22:01.540 concentrating on wars. Otherwise, we're closing the purse. Department of Education, it's too late for

01:22:08.660 you. We're just closing the purse. But they need to do this in every single place. And that

01:22:14.680 means it's going to mean massive firing. So be it. Who has the balls to do it?

01:22:21.660 Wouldn't that be great to see that the ranks shrink instead of grow under a president and see

01:22:26.980 the bureaucracies cut instead of fattened up? Stand by. I'm going to leave that rhetorical question

01:22:32.720 looming in the air. And then we're going to talk about IRS inflation and Joe Biden appearing to

01:22:40.500 forget that he already shook hands with Chuck Schumer. We'll show you the tape. Don't go away.

01:22:49.160 President Biden has been busy for him lately. First, he went and celebrated the signing of his

01:22:56.740 bipartisan Chips Act, which tries to make some semiconductors and related things back here in

01:23:02.100 the United States and appeared to forget that he had already shaken the hand of Senate Majority Leader

01:23:10.020 Chuck Schumer. Here's a bit of that in case you missed it. OK, there she's shaking and he's going

01:23:15.780 up and down the line. And OK. Wait a minute. Why? I thought we were playing a game. I get a shake and

01:23:23.680 then you shake and then I shake. We can keep going around in this circle. I knew what I was doing.

01:23:27.920 What? I mean, every day. It's sad. I know. It's really sad. I think his I think his family is abusive.

01:23:36.380 I really do. I think this is elderly abuse. Well, I don't think he has a he does not have a

01:23:43.700 good relationship with his family. It's obvious through Hunter's emails that his family is deeply

01:23:48.240 or Ashley's diary. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. But this is when a family steps in. It should have

01:23:56.360 happened, you know, before the elections. Dad, dad, please don't go out this way. Don't go out this

01:24:01.020 way. You know, you have a good reputation. Let's let's just enjoy each other as a family. You know,

01:24:08.040 you don't you just don't enable this. And I think they I think they help push. I mean, I don't think

01:24:13.960 he needed much of a push. But somebody in the family should have said, Dad, it's time to take

01:24:18.040 the keys away. Hunter Biden was like, hell yes, do it. I'm going to get to cash in. All my deals are

01:24:24.160 going to go up by, you know, extra figures. Well, here's the other here's the other thing,

01:24:28.280 the other example, Glenn. So he got out there to celebrate the fact that his inflation reduction

01:24:34.180 act got it. You know, like hashtag part of the problem when you repeat it. He went out there to

01:24:40.140 to celebrate the fact that it passed in the Senate. You know, Kamala Harris cast the deciding vote

01:24:44.240 and listen to the end of this sentence in him touting it. Listen, because of a number of things

01:24:50.760 we got done on a bipartisan basis, like a billion, two hundred million dollar infrastructure project,

01:24:56.540 like what we're doing today. We passed yesterday helping taking care of everything from health care

01:25:02.460 to God knows what else. That's the truest thing he's ever said. I mean, God only knows whatever

01:25:10.300 else that he was telling the truth there. It's terrifying. Yeah, it is. I mean, that is the

01:25:17.300 problem. These bills, they are so massive. Nobody has a chance to read any of them. This is worse than

01:25:25.080 it ever has been before, because at least they used to go through hearings and committees. Now it's just

01:25:30.860 all backroom deals. It's, you know, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell. They just go into a

01:25:37.960 room. They pound it out that worse yet, they'll go to the experts. You know, they'll go to these

01:25:44.000 companies and say, what should we do? How could we help you? And those companies are looking out for

01:25:50.420 themselves. I mean, this is how we have three automobile makers, three major automobile makers up until

01:25:59.320 Tesla in this country. We had Auburn. We had all of these great, great companies. We had two

01:26:07.640 extra tire companies, not just BF Goodrich and Goodyear. We also had others, and they were actually

01:26:16.560 selling better tires at lower prices. But because the government went to BF Goodrich and Goodyear and

01:26:25.360 said, what would be good on regulations for your industry? They wrote regulations that the little

01:26:31.880 guys couldn't handle. Yeah. This is what's happening with these public-private partnerships.

01:26:37.780 It's bad. The Inflation Reduction Act. I mean, I guess we're just going to have to say it. This is

01:26:45.620 like their evil trick. Bernie Sanders says it's going to have minimal impact on inflation. At best,

01:26:51.620 only 12% of Americans believe that it will actually reduce inflation. So it's not working. People see

01:26:57.220 through it. But they're going to start to believe. I mean, by the way, I mean, I don't want to skip

01:27:01.900 past the fact that inflation is still at record highs. We got the numbers today. It's not 9.1.

01:27:07.760 It's 8.6. Is it 8.6 today? It's I think it's 8.5. But here's the important thing that people don't

01:27:13.260 understand. Joe Biden came out and said we had zero inflation, 0% inflation, total lie. He's skewing

01:27:20.760 the numbers. But you have to understand year over year. It's not month to month. So if you had $100

01:27:28.060 two years ago, it was $108. Okay. And now you add this number to it. Now it's not going down. It's

01:27:37.760 now $114 to buy that thing that two years ago used to cost you $100. It's not at zero. The number is not

01:27:46.960 going down the way they're saying it is. That's just it's slowed down from the rapid ascent last

01:27:54.000 year. Yeah. So, I mean, that we've covered and you and I had a great segment on inflation last

01:27:59.880 time we were on. And as usual, most of your predictions have come true. But the IRS thing

01:28:05.280 really bothers me, really bothers me. I know it bothers you, too. It's 87,000 agents. The agency is

01:28:11.720 swelling. They Charles C.W. Cook was making a great point in the editors the other day saying

01:28:16.100 it's not like the criminal justice system where you actually have to do something to get swept up

01:28:20.500 into it. You know, we're like they have to show probable cause to come mess with you in your life.

01:28:25.200 The IRS doesn't have to do any of that. They can just pick on you for whatever reason. And they will.

01:28:29.360 And they have. Or it can just be some randomized, you know, numerical algorithm that targets you.

01:28:36.140 But and then you have to prove your innocence.

01:28:38.220 But you and I don't have to worry about it because we will use our money to hire the best

01:28:44.800 lawyers and the best CPAs to defend us. It's people who don't have a lot of dough who are

01:28:49.560 going to get screwed, who are going to get scared, who can't afford all of that. And as I was saying

01:28:54.440 earlier, the process is the punishment for them. And the studies show that historically, even though

01:28:59.180 Biden says we're only going to go after the billionaires, that's never the way it's worked.

01:29:02.280 It's always target the low hanging fruit. Yeah, it's not true. You don't need 87,000

01:29:07.860 IRS agents for what, a thousand billionaires if we're, you know, really being, you know, generous.

01:29:16.780 That's not what that's not what it is. And I do believe that there is a chance this slows down

01:29:23.040 inflation because of one aspect. You are going to be impoverished. You are going to have to spend

01:29:31.900 more money defending yourself, more money in taxes because there are going up over forty thousand

01:29:37.840 dollars. You're going to pay higher taxes now because of this bill. So they're impoverishing

01:29:42.880 you with taxes. Then they come out and say, hey, we need you to do this. You're going to have to

01:29:47.800 spend money and time away from work and all of this stuff. And then on top of it, if you do have

01:29:54.220 to pay, you're going to have to cough that money up. So that's all money that you can't put out on

01:30:00.840 the things that you want or need to buy in the free market. So it will slow. Remember, this is what the

01:30:08.760 Fed openly says they have to do. This is why you raise the interest rates. It's to slow people down,

01:30:16.940 to slow the economy down. That means they need to slow the consumer down. That's all we are,

01:30:23.820 is the consumer. Now they're just hitting us with rates, with taxes and with intimidation

01:30:31.500 through the IRS. The only reason why that won't slow down the rate of inflation is because

01:30:39.820 the government is just becoming the consumer. So the government's just going to spend all of this

01:30:46.120 money and dump it out there. And it'll probably be more than what we would have spent as consumers

01:30:51.000 in our most reckless times. What effect will it have if you have 87,000 new annoying IRS agents

01:31:01.560 bothering middle America? I mean, is that the kind of thing that could drive votes?

01:31:07.440 Oh, yeah, I think so. But more importantly, when it's clear that you're targeting the enemy,

01:31:14.980 you know, the political enemy, it's going to cause more stress. I mean, this is really not a good

01:31:23.940 development. But, you know, just economically, it's going to make small business people just not want

01:31:30.740 to do it anymore. I mean, how many doctors have you met that will just take cash? Not because

01:31:37.340 they disagree with it. It's just like, I can't do it. I can't do all the paperwork required.

01:31:43.800 Okay. That's the way this is going to affect us long term beyond the, yeah, target these people.

01:31:52.560 Can you imagine having, well, you know what it'd be like? Anybody who wanted to keep their doors open

01:31:57.980 during COVID, they'll get you one way or another. If they want you out, they'll get you.

01:32:03.160 They'll get you. That's right. And it's, it's not unrelated to Fed's rating Mar-a-Lago. It's just

01:32:09.360 lines being crossed that we used to think were uncrossable and distrust based on partisanship.

01:32:16.180 With Donald Trump, that was exactly what happened. Also, as well this week, the IRS,

01:32:22.120 a judge said, yeah, you have, he's got to release all of his private taxes. Since when? What?

01:32:29.440 Yep.

01:32:29.760 They're just crossing these lines. And if they'll do it with the president,

01:32:32.600 they don't care about you. You're a little teeny. You're not even a speed bump.

01:32:37.920 It's truly like who the hell would want to run for office? Like, why does DeSantis want to do it?

01:32:41.760 Why does Trump want to continue to like Trump's got scores to settle and so on, but

01:32:45.060 I just, who would want to put themselves and their family through this?

01:32:49.000 I have an interview that's coming, released tomorrow on Blaze and then on my podcast Saturday

01:32:55.800 with Ron DeSantis. And I asked him, what drives you? What, what is, why are you doing this? And he had

01:33:05.520 a really good answer. Um, uh, and I can't really sum it up better than, better than he actually

01:33:15.380 believes in something. And he is actually trying to, uh, accomplish this and take away the tools

01:33:25.140 for the next governor to get it back into line where it's constitutionally in line. And he believes it.

01:33:33.220 Um, before I let you go, our mutual friend, Natasha is getting married this weekend.

01:33:42.080 She works for the Blaze. She works for me now. Yeah. She used to work for me for years and years

01:33:48.900 and years. And Natasha, I really want to meet him. He's got to go through me and I've got people with

01:33:57.820 guns. He ever does anything mistreats you, makes you unhappy. Call dad. Call me.

01:34:02.740 You went to the dark place. No, she's doing Natasha. Is it okay if I tell them what your

01:34:07.580 theme is like for you? Cause Steve Krakauer gave me a heads up. Okay. So I love this. She's getting

01:34:13.100 married in a converted haunted house and the theme is gothic elegance. How amazing is that?

01:34:20.020 Oh, her. She left, she left me to go work for a film company that just made horror movies. And I'm

01:34:28.000 like, I guess it does kind of make sense a little bit, but really she's a sweet, sweet girl with just

01:34:35.720 a dark sense of humor. And it's so funny. Cause I was, I knew her for a while and she was quiet and

01:34:41.380 a hard worker and putting out great product. And then we had a chat one day and she was in the midst

01:34:45.860 of all the COVID mania talking about how she was the one who would walk through the grocery store

01:34:50.120 with the mask off. Despite the mandate, we were all like Natasha. Whoa. A whole new side. I know

01:34:55.940 she's great. She's great. Steve is great. You you've been hiring all the people that have left me. I

01:35:00.660 don't like it. I don't like it. Well, it's a very good sign to see that they work for you, Glenn,

01:35:04.780 that they, they see greatness. They know it when they see it and they're willing to work hard for it.

01:35:09.120 It's always a pleasure, my friend. Thank you so much for your insights. God bless you. Thank you very much,

01:35:12.760 Megan. You as well. And God bless Natasha too. Tomorrow, a guest who has been requested by
