Starting point is 00:00:00 You know what socialism is? A boyfriend, a dirtbag boyfriend that your daughter brings home and you're like, honey, you're worth so much more than this. It's not going to end well. Why do you keep bringing the same guy to the door? You're worth more than this. I'll show you how socialism is that deadbeat boyfriend. Also, did you know the first lady of New York is an artist? Oh, she's a great artist.
Starting point is 00:00:26 And you should see some of her hero artists. We're going to talk about that. David Steinberg also joins us on Ilhan Omar, the latest. And don't forget tomorrow, on tomorrow's program, we have John Solomon. He is the guy who runs just the news. He's probably the best button-up journalist out there. He's going to bring us all the inside news on what the warrant was all about and everything that is going on in Washington with that case. That's on tomorrow's program.
Starting point is 00:00:53 But here is today's podcast. You're listening to The Best of the Blend. So NBC just put out a poll. And among voters under 30, the share with a positive view of socialism has climbed from 28% in 2018 to 42%. Wow. The share of a negative view of capitalism more than doubled
Starting point is 00:01:32 from 22% to 47%. Now, I'm not going to yell at that because, I mean, we've been there, done that. Okay. Here's what I want to do. If you're 23 and you have watched, you know, rent, eat your paycheck, if you've been told, you know, a house is something that your parents got and you're just not going to, if groceries costs more every time you go and somebody comes along and said, you know, it doesn't have to be this way, let's try something new. You would listen. You would listen. Okay.
Starting point is 00:02:08 the problem is what many people who are 23 years old don't understand is it's not a new thing let's try something new it's not new i'm open to new things okay the people selling this they know that so they have an answer ready yeah yeah yeah yeah the Soviet Union it was a disaster yeah i know Mao Mao Mao Cambodia you just name you go down the list i know but that wasn't real socialism leaders went bad. Okay. This time we're going to have better people, better safeguards, a better plan.
Starting point is 00:02:45 Uh-huh. You might have heard this speech before. Let me give you the same thing in a different scenario. Because your friend or somebody you know gives you this same speech every time she defends the loser she's dating. You know the guy. no job, lives in his parents' basement, can't afford a car, has no future. Sh showers on holidays, maybe not on Flag Day, but the big ones.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Showers on holidays, you know, and she said, you just don't know him like I do. He's got such good ideas. He's so good as a person. He's got a bright future. I can fix him. Every girl that guy has ever dated said exactly the same thing. And every one of those relationships ended with a box of his stuff. on the front lawn.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Okay. Socialism is that boyfriend. Charming, a little rebellious. Your parents probably don't like him. Talks beautifully about fairness. And there's always an excuse for the last breakup. Wrong leader. Wrong country.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Not enough money. Foreign interference. It's never his fault. Never his fault. So let me introduce you to his ex-guer. girlfriends, okay? The Soviet Union. Soviet Union took the farm from the farmers and millions starved in the early 1930s. By the secret police's own records, about 680,000 people were shot in just two years of purges. In China, Mao's Great Leap Forward produced what may be the deadliest famine
Starting point is 00:04:32 in human history. Tens of millions dead in that one, and that's not to mention the estimated 50 to 90 million people dead under Mao because he shot them, killed them one way or another. In Cambodia, the communist abolished money because money was the problem. They emptied the cities, and in four years, roughly one out of every four Cambodians was dead. It's called the killing fields.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Now, that's your grandparents' history. Those are the ones that our grandparents might have dated and the rest of the world went, don't date him. No, it's a really bad idea. It's not going to end well. So let's look at your boyfriends. Venezuela. Venezuela sits on the largest proven oil reserves on the planet, bigger than Saudi Arabia, should be one of the richest countries on Earth. At one time was the second richest in the hemisphere.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Then Hugo Chavez took over. Famous, smart Americans all lined up to applaud. This is socially, this is socialism. done right. Finally, socialism. They elected him. Democratic election for the people. Then came the takeovers and the price controls. The government telling stores what they could charge. So the stores stop stocking the shelves because they couldn't afford it. In 2017, a survey by Venezuela's top universities found two out of three people had lost weight that year. When I say lost weight, I'm not talking about a diet. They lost an average, the average person,
Starting point is 00:06:07 24 pounds. Not a diet, starvation. The next year, the country's own central bank put inflation at more than 130,000 percent. You think inflation is bad here? Hey, let's try socialism. Nearly eight million people fled the country. Now, defenders will tell you it was American sanctions that did that. Yeah. Unfortunately, we have something called a calendar. Let's look at the calendar. Let's check the dates. The shortage, the shortages, the following oil production, the bread lines, all of it was underway before the major sanctions began in 2017. The boyfriend was broke before anyone cut up his credit card. Okay?
Starting point is 00:06:52 Different countries, different cultures, different leaders. Same ending. Why? What do they all have in common? Carl Marx gave out the ending himself. in the communist manifesto, he admitting getting there would take, in his words, despotic inroads on the rights of property. He promised force would be needed, but only temporary. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Well, it never is. You know, and here's why. Because humans are humans. We're all alike. When you take a man's farm, he doesn't like it. When you take a man's house, he doesn't like it. He doesn't like the results, and so he resists these kinds of things. Okay?
Starting point is 00:07:39 It's never temporary. That's the problem. When you tell him, he gets the same ration whether he works 12 hours or 2 hours, guess what he works? Two. Then production falls. Shortages come. Now the government has a choice. Admit the plan failed, which they never do, or increase.
Starting point is 00:08:02 increase military and police. Guess what? They always choose the secret police. Always. They always push harder. It's the same story. The worst socialism works, the more police it needs. Tyranny isn't what happens when socialism goes wrong. Tyranny is how socialism stays alive. The true believers always knew there would be one problem they couldn't plan around.
Starting point is 00:08:35 And that problem is you. That problem is human nature. Look, if you're on the left, you're already talking about camps. You're already talking about eliminating people that are standing in the way. What do you think that leads to? You think that's just, oh, we're just going to take care of a few people? No, that leads to millions of deaths. That's how it happens every time.
Starting point is 00:09:01 People want to keep what they earn. They want to take care of their own kids. They want to make their own choices. You know, Trotsky, he was one of the men who built the Soviet Union and its Red Army. He had a solution for this. 1924, he writes a book, and he's describing the new human being that socialism would create. And through the training and what he called artificial selection, mankind would become, well, in his words, a higher biologic type, a Superman. The average person, he said, would rise to the level of Aristotle or Marx. Marx was a moron.
Starting point is 00:09:41 The system didn't fit people. So the plan was to change people. Have you ever heard that you can't change people? You're not going to marry him. He's going to change for me. No, he's not. No, he's not. And if that's with sex on the line, what do you think is going to happen when it's government? It's not going to happen. Okay? How'd that work out for Trotsky? Well, he lost power to Stalin. He was thrown out of the country that he helped build. Oh, well, at least they didn't kill him. No.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Actually, in Mexico, a Soviet agent, killed him with an ice axe. So, you know, the man who promised a new humanity, free of jealousy and ambition, was murdered by jealousy and ambition with an axe. Human nature. Human nature. It never changes. And in socialism, that really bad human nature is given a bad, and a gun. The free market, our founders, they made the opposite bet. Madison wrote, if men were angels, government would not be necessary. So they didn't try to build a better human.
Starting point is 00:10:49 They recognized the flaws inhuman and they built a system for the humans we actually have. And they divided power so nobody could grab it all. They let free people build, trade, and keep what they earned. Has it gone bad? Yes. Why? Because we're not used. using the system and we're not recognizing all of the powers and the tools that we have. Most importantly, we're not recognizing the responsibilities that we have. And it's easier for all of us to decide, you know what, I think I'm going to be a better human being than it is to try to change every human being with a gun. That's the free market.
Starting point is 00:11:28 It's not perfect, but it doesn't require everybody to be an angel. It takes ordinary ambition. I want a better life for my family. And it says the only way to get there is by making something your neighbor actually needs and wants. Unfortunately, we're a society that wants porn and free rides and drugs. That's the part we have to change. Your self-interest has to serve somebody else. In socialism, ambition doesn't appear in socialism.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Ambition doesn't appear. It moves into the government where nobody can fire it. And before we hand Washington, the whole economy, look what it already runs. The post office lost $9 billion last fiscal year. Their job, deliver the mail. Amtrak carried more passengers than ever and still lost $600 million and they run the trains. If they can't make the trains pay with record crowds, why would we hand them our grocery store at our hospital and your job? So if you're one of the 20-somethings, your frustration is real.
Starting point is 00:12:47 I get it. I get it. The problems are real. They're there. But before you take a cure, find out what caused the disease. You might be surprised how often the answer is the government, not the market. And to the parents, don't mock these guys. They don't know what they've not been, they've not learned any of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Nobody's told them. And by the way, you mock them, you know what that does? Go ahead. Mock your daughter for the boyfriend. Be little your daughter for the boyfriend. You know what's going to happen? She's going to go move closer to the boyfriend. Ask them which country they want to copy.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Then ask them, how does this usually end? Because here's a rule that will serve you in love and in work and in politics. When somebody needs you to become a different person before their plan can work, the problem isn't you. It's the plan. It's not you. It's him. But if you keep choosing the same kind of guy over and over again, it is you. And maybe, I mean, we just, life is not easy.
Starting point is 00:14:11 It's worth it. It's worth it. But it's not easy. But it requires you to recognize your own self-worth. You know, you look at girls that have dated these loser guys and you're like, you're worth more than that. What is wrong with you? Stop it.
Starting point is 00:14:31 You deserve more than that. You're worth more than that. I'd say the same thing with socialism. To everybody within the sound of my voice, you're worth more than that. You're better than that. You can accomplish so much more. And you can't fix it. You can't fix him.
Starting point is 00:14:50 You can't fix it. You never could. Love yourself enough to walk away. Back in a minute. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Doctors told Alba that pregnancy was impossible. Her husband's diagnosis confirmed it. A child of their own just was not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Then the impossible happened. Alba was pregnant. Positive pregnancy test felt like a mistake. Cruel twist of science she didn't understand or want at the time. Nothing added up. She had accepted pregnancy wasn't possible. This baby wasn't planned. She was confused. She was afraid she was overwhelmed. What should have felt like a miracle felt like a crisis. Then Alba walked into a pre-born network clinic and everything changed. She was welcomed with compassion and given a free ultrasound. And when she saw her baby and heard that tiny heartbeat, everything changed. Fear gave way to hope. Alba chose life. Baby Laura is healthy and striving. A reminder that when God is writing the story, impossible doesn't get the final word. He does. Right now, another mother needs that moment. You can give it to her. Just $28 helps provide one life-saving ultrasound. $140 will rescue five babies. Please, today, how many babies can you save?
Starting point is 00:16:02 pound 250, say the keyword baby. pound 250, keyword baby, or visit preborn.com slash Beck. That's preborn.com slash Beck, sponsored by preborn. This is the best of the Glenbeck program. Okay, yesterday, one of the reporters at the Washington Free Beacon published a story about the first lady of New York City. And I just love this. Her name is Rama Dwaji. She's an illustrator.
Starting point is 00:16:29 I didn't know she was an artist. What a surprise. What a surprise? An artist being a socialist. Huh, who'd have seen that coming? She's married to Mayor Zoran Mamdani. And in April of 2024, she sat in front of a camera and animated a portrait of the man she said,
Starting point is 00:16:47 inspires all my work. All right. Who is it? Who is it that inspires all of your work? I tend to look for people who aren't killers myself. You know what I mean? I try to look for people who were not, you know, really heavy in the dark side.
Starting point is 00:17:04 But, hey, I'm not an artist like she is. Okay. In the video, she describes him, because he just died, with pride, as an artist of the Intifada. And she also mentioned twice, and he's been jailed twice. makes them gritty.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Now the second hit Defada was blowing up buses and cafes, okay? Pizza parlor in Jerusalem. You know all of the places that you think this place should be bombed. More than a thousand Israelis dead, most of them civilians,
Starting point is 00:17:41 but she's proud of him. Free Beacon went through his own pages on October 8, 2023, hours after Hamas butchered 1,200 people. He posted his painting of a fighter with a rifle, and the comments were all filled with applause. And then earlier, he called the founder of Hamas, a hero.
Starting point is 00:18:03 In fact, all of them are heroes. That's what he said. They're heroes. Really? The guy who planned October 7th, he stood in front of a banner copied from one of his paintings and thanked Iran for the money and the weapons. And Monsour the artist said, well, that doesn't bother me.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Yeah, I'm glad. Wait. Okay, hang on. You imagine you're standing there and you're giving a speech and, uh, or no, wait, you're an artist and somebody's giving a speech and they're like, and I want to thank Adolf Hitler. You'd be like, can, can somebody take the art behind them? That's my art. I don't want that. No, no, he did the opposite.
Starting point is 00:18:42 In fact, speaking of Hitler in 2015, he posted a painting by Adolf Hitler and said, look at his technique. He's the first guy to say, you know, he wasn't that bad of an artist. Okay. in February 26th, well, maybe, I got to say it now, maybe Tucker Carlson has said that, but I don't know anybody else. Anyway, in 2016, he shared a link claiming the diary of Anne Frank was a fake. And it was written by an American Jew. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:13 So, I don't know. I don't hold this guy up as, you know, the reason I paint. But then again, I'm not married to Zoran Mamdani, you know. I have spent a good portion of my life now. Gosh, almost half of my life collecting documents and letters and originals. And not because paper is valuable. It's really not. It's because paper and documents are the last true witnesses.
Starting point is 00:19:43 I don't collect documents of people that say, oh, I know a hundred years ago, this guy said, I collect the document of the guy who actually said it 200 years ago. When everyone else in the room is gone, the paper is the only thing that is left to say what actually happened. And the first thing every liar in history goes after is the witness. That's why they're going after our history. You know, lies have birth certificates. So what was the last lie he said?
Starting point is 00:20:18 The last lie he said, oh, it was an American Jew that wrote the diary. you had Frank. And I swear you I'm going to come. It's going to come back to Mom Nani's wife. This story is incredible. The American Jew in the story is a real man. Meyer Levin, I think. He was a novelist from Chicago.
Starting point is 00:20:38 He was a war correspondent who was there in 1945 when the camps were opened. He was there. A few years later, he read a French translation of the diary kept by a Dutch girl in the attic. And he couldn't let it go. and he was like, this is the greatest thing I've ever read. He wrote a review in the New York Times. That's what helped make it a bestseller in America. Well, he wanted to write a play.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Anne's father, Otto, chose other writers. So he sued. And he said they had taken his ideas and a jury awarded him $50,000. Now, for the play, two men who both loved the book were fighting over who was going to put it on stage. Within a couple of years, pro-Nazi pamphlets in Sweden and Norway had turned this whole thing inside out. A Jew had been paid $50,000. For what?
Starting point is 00:21:30 For writing the diary. Same number, same names, but a new twist on the story. Let's leave out the stage play. The man who was the loudest champion of the diary in America was now the forger of Anne Frank's diary. Otto Frank was the only one of the eight people in that attic who came home. And he spent the rest of his life in courtrooms defending his daughter's handwriting. When he died in 1980, he left the notebooks to the Dutch state.
Starting point is 00:22:04 And the Dutch treated them like evidence in a murder case. So he dies. And forensic experts come in. They test the paper, the ink, the glue, the handwriting, letter by letter. The famous ballpoint ink that deniers love turned up. on a couple of loose slips tucked in decades later. Not in one line she ever wrote. So after six years, in 1986, the verdict comes down.
Starting point is 00:22:30 She wrote it all, every word of it, between 1942 and 1944. The deniers also love that there's two versions of the diary. There are two versions because of a radio broadcast. It was March 1944, the Allies were coming in. the Dutch minister in exile came on the air from London and said, People of Holland, save your diaries, save all of your letters. The world needs to know what happened. Well, she's a 14-year-old girl.
Starting point is 00:22:58 She's listening in the attic. The next day, she writes about it in her diary, and then she begins rewriting her diary so it would be ready. She knew she was going to be a witness, and she was preparing her testimony. Five months later, somebody betrayed them. she dies in Bergen-Belsen. Seventy years after that,
Starting point is 00:23:22 the painter who inspired the first lady of New York shared a link calling Anne Frank a lie. Now, this guy's best-known painting hangs in the homes of Palestinians. I'm sure that have never heard anybody. You know, an artist can, you know, admire another artist's brushwork without saying, you know, I'm a fan of everything else Adolf Hitler did, but it kind of fits in this. She wasn't praising his brushwork. She says she's praising the intifada, the fact that he fights, the fact that he's been in jail.
Starting point is 00:24:03 The Free Beacon reports that after October 7th, she liked posts calling the massacre resistance and one calling the rapes a hoax. Why did I tell you the Anne Frank story? she served dinner at the Gracie Mansion to Mahmood Khalil. The only thing she has publicly apologized for is a racial slur. And her husband says, well, she's a private person. I'm sorry, she's the first lady of the city of New York with more Jews in that city than any other city outside of Israel. And she lives in the people's house.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Private stopped being the answer to the day she moved in. That same Anne Frank Lye. The ballpoint pan and the $50,000. I have seen posted by people who call themselves conservatives, patriots, Christians. Same lie, different hat. Lies don't belong to one side or another. It belongs to whoever is tired of the witness. Every genocide commits two murders.
Starting point is 00:25:12 The first kills people. The second kills the memory. So the first can happen again. It never happened. It's not a claim about history. It's a permission slip for the future. We watched the second murder begin on October 8th. And people are calling the rapes a hoax
Starting point is 00:25:35 while the killer's own videos were still online. This one didn't take 70 years. It took a weekend. And the only thing for a lie to survive is a crowd. But the truth only requires one witness who will never sit down. That's why I collect American history. That's why we're building the American Journey experience in Dallas. That's why I have documents in vaults in the sides of mountains because those documents are the only true witness and they will not be silenced. You know,
Starting point is 00:26:21 Anne Frank's not going to go away. Girl who heard a voice on the radio say someday the world is going a need to know and she sat down with a pen and she made sure the world knew. The Nazis couldn't silence her. The pamphlins couldn't silence her. And Mamdani's wife can't silence her. A German court even proved her. A Dutch lab proved her. The First Lady of New York chose whose face to paint. But in all honesty, this monologue's not about her. Because you choose that every day as well. With what you share, what you like, what you let slide at the dinner. table in the office, you're painting a portrait of who you admire. I have to tell you, I do a lot of research on Claude. And I asked it this morning because there's this thing going around about how
Starting point is 00:27:20 Amazon knows everything about you and it's crazy accurate. And I asked Claude, just based on our conversation, I wanted to know, what did it know of me? Just based on our conversations with no public information. Who am I as a man? If you spend time, O'Cla, you should do that. You might learn something about yourself. I did. I did. Mamm Dani painted the man who called that little girl a lie. I'll take the little girl with a pen. Hang her on your wall. The truth must survive. And that truth you own. Not your truth. The truth. You witnessed it. You own it. You own it. You own it. You stand up for it. More in a minute. International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, 85 years old, two wars,
Starting point is 00:28:21 and through both of them, the kindness of Christians helped keep one Jewish woman alive. Her name isn't as important as her story. She was a child during the Holocaust. The Nazis rounded up and murdered most of her neighbors, but a Christian policeman saved her and her mom. She survived, grew up, got married, built a life, farming. She keeps bees in Ukraine or dizzed. Then in 2022, Russians shelling destroyed her home. She was forced to flee.
Starting point is 00:28:51 She knows she can never go back. Today, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews helps her with food and medicine and clothing and utilities, but there's something else. She also keeps a personal letter from the fellowship staff beside her bed. She said when she looks at it, she's reminded that somebody actually cares. 80 years after a Christian helped saved her life, Christians are still standing behind her. Is that great? That's what your support of the fellowship makes people? possible. And it's a message behind the flags of fellowship. Millions of Israeli flags were
Starting point is 00:29:19 planted by churches and synagogues and people just like you, each declaring that the Jewish people are not alone. Visit join-f-o-f.org. Give today. Join-F-O-F-F-org. 10-second station ID. Can somebody give me a update on Keith Malinac? Have you heard anything this morning? not on the give-s-end go. Keith Malineck is a guy who has worked with us for a long time. He's been Pat's producer for, well, 20-plus years. And last week he gets up during the show, and he's just acting strangely.
Starting point is 00:30:10 And he says, I'm sorry, I think I'm having a stroke. And Jeffrey went out with him. It's like, I got to call 911. He's like, no, I'm fine, I'm fine. If somebody says they're having a stroke, call 911. He had a massive stroke. He's on event now. The prayers are the most important thing that you can give.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Today and tomorrow are supposed to be the worst days of it, and it'll start getting better. It's like five days after a stroke is when, you know, it's at the apex of bad. But he's in really bad shape, and we ask for your prayers. Also, if you've listened to the Pat show and, you know, if you've ever found anything entertaining or, you know, whatever, he is his family has a very long road to go um and um they've set up a listener actually set up a
Starting point is 00:31:03 give send go.com it's givsend go.com slash help keith malanek with medical bills because he's going to be having them for a very very long time have we had an update uh jason i uh i ran into their studio this morning right before we went live and uh there was no real update um it sounded like uh prayers for Keith and his recovery, heavy prayers for his wife and family, because it sounds like they are just exhausted, absolutely exhausted. And Carrie is so strong. The kids are so strong, but it sounds like a lot of people are asking for updates, and now it's getting harder for them to give them out, because just all their energy. Thank God the family has God. I mean, she's a minister, and And thank God they have that because this one is a very hard road, a very, very hard road.
Starting point is 00:31:59 And our thoughts and prayers. And by the way, if you just want to send messages, you can, I think probably at gives and go you, but just I think maybe you can just put messages up there. But she's reading the messages to Keith and she said, and this is the hard part, I know he can hear me. And so they're at his bedside talking to him. but he's in bad shape. But thank you for everything. Do we have an update on Gives and Go? How much is it?
Starting point is 00:32:27 BJ, do you know? Last time we looked at that is... 165. Yeah, 160. Yeah, 166,000. $25. So thank you for giving. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:43 I'm going to tell you a story in a minute here. of something that happened in Guatemala the other day. And it could be one of your worst fears. It could be one of your worst fears. And it happened to this girl in Guatemala. And I'll tell you about that. Jason, also, what are we missing that we haven't talked about? I know we have Ilhan Omar.
Starting point is 00:33:08 We have an update coming from a guy who is an expert on her, knows this story. He's been following it for 10 years, knows this story probably better than anybody else. He's going to be joining me in about half an hour to give us an update on that. And it should be a substantial one. What else do we, what else have we missed so far that we have to get to? That's really the big one.
Starting point is 00:33:29 I still think we could go into just off your last monologue, talk a little bit about El Saeed. A lot of good stuff there and some denials. Oh, yes, yes. You know, save that for about an hour from now. Let's bring that back up in an hour from now. I've got to tell you this story about something happening in Guatemala. It's crazy. Next.

You can walk into a bedroom. You can take one look at your kid and go, yeah, he's getting sick. You don't need a thermometer. You don't need a doctor. You just know, right?
Starting point is 00:34:15 Unfortunately, knowing they're about to get sick is the easy part. The hard part is discovering that half the town has the same. bug. The pharmacy is out of the medication they need. And now you're driving all over town hoping somebody has it in stock. That's why I advise you prepare before the first cough starts. The kids case from Jace Medical provides physician prescribed emergency medications and antibiotics designed specifically for your children. And you can also include essentials like albuterol, epip pins, zyrtec.

Glenn, I was thinking yesterday, right when I saw the headline of the raid, I'm like, man, Glenn's going to call me any second, just like a few seconds later. I'm telling you, 10, 50 seconds later, I get a text from your booker. I'm like, if anyone wants it, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Yeah. You're the guy who, I mean, you're the guy who did all of the work on this, all of the legwork. I mean, we did a special on it. A lot of it was based on your work. and I couldn't believe at the time that no one had any interest in this story. Because to me, it is very, very clear. But I'm hearing now statute of limitations and everything else. Can you first start, tell us the story in the most understandable way that you can?
Starting point is 00:36:10 And then let's talk about what happened yesterday. Exactly. The first thing I would say, you sounded a little concerned earlier that this might not go well. first thing I would say is there is absolutely nothing to worry about as far as the facts go. If we just want to, I can't speak to the warrant. I can't speak to why now. But if we want to talk about is this person beyond reasonable doubt guilty of a whole slew of fraud, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, health insurance fraud, college loan application fraud.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Everything she signed for several years was perjury. Everything she signed as a married woman. We've got a whole spree here. And as I asserted back in 2019, 2020, we may be looking at the most accomplished criminal as far as pound for pound. I'm not pound for pound. Most felonies committed in congressional history here if all of this is prosecutable. So look, I would say first.
Starting point is 00:37:29 So what do we have that, hang on, what do we have, though, that is with, that is not covered by the statute of limitations? Do you know? Well, you mentioned earlier that the New York Times had a hint that there was this conspiracy charge. That's very interesting to me. as the marriage fraud, since she would have already been a citizen at the time the marriage fraud was committed, that is beyond the statute of limitations. A lot of the perjury charges are beyond. Now, some of the perjury was committed in 2017 and absolutely was just left there.
Starting point is 00:38:08 It was obvious. It was reported. It was still left there with years to expire and never took action, of course, the Biden administration. So as far as that goes, her crimes committed as a citizen, most of them appear to be beyond a statute of limitations. Now, we talk about her father. Her father, it's clear, look, it's beyond a reasonable doubt from my investigation and the other two reporters I want to mention. It was Scott Johnson and Preya Samsondar. We were the three, and together, between 2016, 2020, we put together 25 articles.
Starting point is 00:38:54 And I just made a list here of all the articles. I'm going to try to get this out, because I think the reason some people are still confused about this case, how open and shut it actually is, is because they just never saw any of this. Most of this is free. It's before Elon bought X. The majority of this. So what survives the state? Unless it's, unless it is the conspiracy theory, because when you have a grand conspiracy, then everything has opened up the statute of limitations no longer apply. So if it's not that, is there, is there stuff that is beyond the statute of limitations, beyond the conspiracy theory? Well, look, if we're, if we're talking about her father, we are beyond a reasonable doubt that this man was named Colonel.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Nersaid Elmi of the Somalian army. He was trained in a Soviet military camp in Italy. He's a communist. This was a communist setup. He was trained before the wall fell in. And then he was sent back to Somalia. At the time, it was this Soviet vassal state. And a genocide was committed while he was a part, apparently a key leader in that army. Now, the war breaks out. He ends up in a refugee camp, and he enters the United States. And again, if you read our articles, we are beyond a reasonable doubt that he must have lied on his immigration forms to enter the United States.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Now, that becomes original sin here, because there is no statute of limitations on that. If you lie in her immigration forms and it's provable, you can be deported. 50 years later, 100 years later, right away. So she was brought to this country illegally. So the family would be deported? That is the question. She was brought here as a minor. She was 12 years old at the time.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Ilhan Nur Saeed Elmi. She was brought here illegally as Ilhan Abdallahi Omar, which was actually a second. family. The Omar family is not her family. That is the second family, six other siblings. She is not actually related to of that family. Her family is actually four known siblings, all Nurse Saeed Alme's. And look, it's beyond reasonable doubt. Again, I have to get, I really would like everybody to just read it or at the very least, I'll get you all 25 articles, put an AI bot on it. saying, what are the chances here that anything else is possible? Because again, what we did is we eliminated. There's no record of anybody in Somalia, of course, because their record are destroyed, but there's no record of anybody in England that could be this person she married besides her brother. There's no record of anybody in America. I mean, he is the last person on Earth. There's nothing else to
Starting point is 00:42:07 prove here. It's process of elimination. This happened. So I think that's why Trump and the secretaries have stated it very clearly. She married her brother. They're not hedging anymore. They know what happened. So what comes down to, again, John Solomon tomorrow, I presume we'll be able to give you a better look at what exactly was in that warrant. Right.
Starting point is 00:42:31 But don't, as far as the actual facts, what is prosecutable? again, that's going to be up for debate, but the fact that they went in there and they did conduct this raid and there is that conspiracy charge, I will say this. I know they've been doing this for at least almost two years. I believe January 2025, I got a call from HSI and I put together a list of everything that had been published. I found some other details. about her father. And they did express to me at the time that this division, we wouldn't be going after something like the fake marriage, the division, this investigative division I'm a part of. We look towards stuff like her father, a possible war criminal, how he got into the country. They explained to me that that seemed to be the focus. So I was contact with 2020. When you say that, I'm just, I'm going to play devil's, I'm going to play a lefty journalist. What she, what her father did makes no difference.
Starting point is 00:43:45 She came in, she was seven, she had nothing to do with that. She's been in America. This is the country that she knows and loves, blah, blah, blah. Unless, if that's what they're going to use to try to get rid of her, and because the statute of limitations has run out on everything else, you better make the case that everything else was real because the fraud that she perpetrated on the American people and, you know, on the system itself, and you said it, are taxes, you know, the university, everything was fraudulent. You better make that case or it's going to, it's going to turn into something sympathy for,
Starting point is 00:44:28 see, they're just trying to take people here who have been here their whole life and get rid of them. Sure. You agree with that or disagree? I can't speak to what they're going to do. I really can't. I'm just, this is, if you do take the time to read it, I'm not talking to you in particular. I'm saying if anybody else there listening, if any of the Democrats once again saying Trump is racist, politically targeted, blah, blah, blah, he's abusing the DOJ to go after his enemies. They're giving you a lot of hypotheses.
Starting point is 00:45:00 and again, the experiment has been run already. The research is done. The conclusion is in. This is hypothesis versus conclusion as far as what she did. It is not possible to be a reasonable sane adult and look at everything that's in and come to the conclusion that she's innocent. There's no one left on earth. There's no other possibility that we've been able to find.
Starting point is 00:45:29 We've posted dozens and dozens, maybe over 100 pieces of individual verified evidence. She has given nothing but a denial. Again, that's the extent, if you want to say that it is a courtroom, her defense is a written denial, and ours is over 100 pieces of verified evidence and how we came to find each piece of this evidence. So we used, when we were writing these articles, we would explain exactly how, how any reader could go find these documents themselves. So we left nothing.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Yeah, go ahead. I just want to know. So do you find it significant that a federal judge in the district of Columbia gave this warrant? I mean, that's, I mean, first of all, it's a judge in the district of Columbia. they don't tend to be friendly. But they know the weight of this. They know that you're going after a sitting Congressperson.
Starting point is 00:46:35 It better be right. Do you think that that tells us anything about how strong the case is or not? Well, the fact that a warrant was issued, yes, by a D.C. judge, I don't see how you could possibly discount that in any way, knowing what's happened, knowing that that district is usually sought out for for such things expecting it to go in the other direction. So absolutely, yes. But again, the judge, maybe it's an Obama judge. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:47:10 Nobody can look at this case. Nobody can look at all the evidence. This is not complicated. Now, again, we were talking about Homeland Security. There's Homeland Security investigations. The idea is that they might be looking for a workaround trying to make the case that she is some sort of threat to Homeland Security and that that's political, etc. No, it's actual. Look, I mean, that case doesn't fly either.
Starting point is 00:47:43 Homeland Security investigations exist for this case. We have an enemy, a combatant. who helps commit a genocide for an enemy state, enters the country illegally, raises his daughter to be a socialist jihadist. Then with the help of someone named Keith Ellison, who is now the Attorney General of Minnesota, he exited his seat at the last day possible. So she could jump in and file her paperwork, and nobody else could get there in time so she could take his seat.
Starting point is 00:48:23 It was engineered. I mean, the Homeland Security, this is, she has always been a literal threat to Homeland Security, objectively. Anyone can see there's a problem here. You look at the past 10 years of her in office and see there's a problem here. Another issue, another article I wrote that did not get the play I felt it deserved at the time was. Okay, hold on. on old. Let me take one minute. Let me take a one minute break and then I come back. I've only got a few
Starting point is 00:48:51 minutes left, but I have to take this one minute break. David, give me the article you were just talking about. What were you, what was the point you were going to make? Right. So I'm mentioning how it is completely objectively reasonable to look at her as someone who needs to be investigated by Homeland Security as part of a long-running conspiracy. So the article is in 2019. Here's my headline. I published this January 24th, 2019. Ilhan Omar endorses Somali's new president. Four days later, Ilhan Omar's brother-in-law has a powerful job in his administration. So Ilhan's sister named Sara Noor, who was living in the United States at the time, and who may have fraudulently opened a health care operation, by the way, that's a number.
Starting point is 00:49:44 another angle to investigate. I believe Daily Call, Daily Wire has done something on that as well. But her sister, her sister's husband, her genetic sister's husband was living in Somalia in 2019. So Ilhan endorses the new president four days later, Her brother-in-law is chief of staff of the crime minister of Somalia. Again, and she had been there in the article, I believe she had been in Somalia campaigning with them a couple months earlier. David, would you send me all of these, send me all of these articles.
Starting point is 00:50:34 I want to look at all of these articles. Send all 25 or however many you have because I want to look at them. We'll do more on this tomorrow. I've sent a list already where I'm way ahead of you. I've been contacting. So there were three of us writing these articles over a span of four years, 25 in total, and they were published at four different outlets, including the blazes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:50:57 So David, thank you so much for your update on this. Keep following it. We'll keep in touch with you to find out, you know, what comes next. And John Solomon joins me tomorrow, and both David and I think he's going to have the inside scoop on that. warrant. That'll be on tomorrow's broadcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
