Starting point is 00:01:14 Why read the book when Glenn will read it to you? Here's the podcast. You're listening to you. The biggest scandal was when they spy to my campaign. They spied my campaign. There's no real evidence of that. Of course there is. It's all over the place. Leslie, they spy to my campaign and they got caught. Can I say something? You know, this is 60 minutes, and we can't put on things we can't verify. You won't put it on because it's bad for Biden.
Starting point is 00:01:54 We can't put on things we can't verify. Leslie, they spy to my campaign. Well, we can't verify that. It's been totally verified. No. It's been, just go down and get the papers. They spied on my campaign, they got caught. No.
Starting point is 00:02:06 And then they went much further than that, and they got caught. And you will see that, Leslie. And you know that, but you just don't want to. No, as a matter of fact, I don't know that. We just don't have the facts. Well, Leslie, now you do. And President Trump is here to discuss perhaps why CBS and everybody else is not talking about this. Welcome to the program, President Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Well, thank you, Glenn. Great to be with you. Thank you. So this is pretty amazing. You were right when you said this is worse than Watergate. This is far worse than Watergate, and we don't seem to have anybody in the mainstream media that cares about it at all. Well, in Watergate, they broke into an apartment in Watergate, and they took some things and nothing good about it, and it turned out to be a disaster. This is far bigger.
Starting point is 00:03:03 They broke into my campaign and all of that, but perhaps most importantly, they broke into the Oval Office. They broke into the White House at the highest levels, so illegal. And as you know, being somebody that knows history probably better than almost anyone else, that would have been a short time ago, it would have been considered treason. I agree. You know what, treason is punishable by. And a longer time ago, it would have been punishable by death when we were in a tough country. Yeah, and I wonder if...
Starting point is 00:03:43 I wonder if there's going to be any punishment at all with this. I mean, Hillary Clinton, spying on your campaign, Trump Tower and the White House. The information was ginned up. Then it was fed to both the FBI and the CIA. They both said, we don't believe this is true. Why didn't the FBI and CIA come out when Leslie Stahl was saying, saying things like this and going, yeah, it is, it is true. What they are talking about, none of that Russia stuff is true, and they were spying.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Well, they didn't come out, and nobody came out, and they did everything possible to get crooked Hillary elected, and she didn't do well, and we did much better the second time. By the way, we got 12 million more votes that we got the first time, and they worked four years on that scheme. But she certainly didn't do well, but this just came out very strongly. We were wondering, when are we going to hear from Durham? And it looks to me like this is just a foundation. This is going maybe all the way to the top, because obviously the people on top at the very,
Starting point is 00:04:58 very top knew all about this. The corporate media was involved in this. I mean, there needs to be, I think you would agree, a massive house cleaning with justice the FBI, the CIA, all of these agencies, house cleaning, for sure. But the corporate media helped, you know, they were right there with them. Are you planning on suing anyone? Well, you know, they got Pulitzer prizes for this. Russia, Russia, Russia, and Pulitzer Committee gave them various people who did a terrible job.
Starting point is 00:05:37 I mean, they got it wrong, totally right from the beginning. and they should give back their Pulitzer prizes. They should be taken back, but the Pulitzer organization is very embarrassed right now, and we know that for a fact. It's a joke, actually. It's a joke. But the Pulitzer Prize is the least of it.
Starting point is 00:05:57 People should pay consequence. And, you know, the crime is one of the biggest crimes that many people have ever seen, certainly politically. They think this is one of the biggest things they've ever seen. And it is far bigger than Watergate. Watergate's nothing compared to this. And Watergate occupied the entire front page of the New York Times and Washington Post for a long period of time. I mean, there were no other stories, literally.
Starting point is 00:06:23 And this has not gotten, to the best of my knowledge, even a mention in either of those two corrupt papers. I think they're disgraceful. They're a disgrace to our country. And likewise, with the ABC fake news. NBC fake news and CBS fake news. I don't believe they've even mentioned it. And it's bigger than Watergate. It's worse than Watergate.
Starting point is 00:06:49 It represents so much worse. I mean, think of it. They broke into the White House and they spied. And they literally broke it. This is a modern day break in. How did you know? Because you said from the very beginning, they're spying on us. How did you know that was happening?
Starting point is 00:07:09 You have the best gut on you. Is it just gut or? I think it was a combination of things, but I'll tell you, the world blew up when I did that. And I put it out that's something to the effect that Barack Obama spying in our campaign. And I was watching a television program. I won't mention which one, but I was watching it. And somebody suggested that he was. and I felt there was something strange going on, really strange, and I just put it out.
Starting point is 00:07:45 And I thought it would be a ho-hum. And I got a call like two minutes later from the head of communication saying, sir, did you just say that Obama was spying on your campaign? I think I said, Obama. And I said, yeah, I did. They said, the wires are burning up. They're smoky. I couldn't believe it.
Starting point is 00:08:07 And that was like, I think, on a Saturday morning, you know, that's not, that's not really a hot time, right? And they said, the wires are burning. And now I know why, because they said, oh, my God, they caught us. They caught us. But the word was, do you remember how vehemently they,
Starting point is 00:08:27 how dare he say that, how dare? And it was like, you know, normally you'd go into a shell. Oh, gee, why did I ever put out something so stupid? but I never took it back. And then over the years, you'd see it got worse and worse, and you'd see. And as people started saying, you know, I think Trump was right about that. And you look at the Carter-paid stuff, and you look at all of the different things that have happened. So many different things really culminating.
Starting point is 00:08:56 This is sort of an amazing thing that's happening with Durham, because a lot of people had given up. And they said, well, and he seems to be going forward. at a level that nobody ever thought possible. Right. I mean, what he's revealing, and if you really look at it and study it and read what they wrote, this looks like it's just a foundation. This is the beginning.
Starting point is 00:09:20 They're building a building, and this is just a foundation on which a lot of big things are going to be revealed. Look, I have very little doubt that the upper levels of government, meaning the top level specifically and the vice level, if he would understand it, I have very little doubt that they knew what was happening, very little doubt. And you don't either, because that's the way it works.
Starting point is 00:09:51 They come back and they report. When Comey went to me to tell me about the fake dossier, you know, to tell me these things, which turned out to be totally fake, it was like a fiction novel that this guy got paid like a massive amount of money. Nobody told me he got paid $12 million. That's more than the great James Patterson gets paid to do a number one bestseller. He paid this time of war.
Starting point is 00:10:14 But James does a better job. And frankly, I think this would be too far fetched for James. This would be, that's right, it's more believable. Nobody would believe this. But think of the money he got paid and he turned out to be just a sleaze bag. Mr. President, let me, I don't, I'm sure you, haven't read my book on the Great Reset, I want to send it to you because I am convinced that this is the reason all of this stuff has happened to you. There is a globalization
Starting point is 00:10:48 kind of push, and we're even seeing it out of the Treasury in Canada yesterday. And they just could not have you in office because you believe in America first, not to hell with the rest of the world, but that we take care of America first. And I think you were, I think you were targeted the whole time. It's why the, it's why the corporations came out right after the election and said, yeah, well, we had massive campaigns and we were helping. They were proud of it. I've never seen that before in American history. Do you, are you familiar? Are you familiar with a great reset? I am looking forward to getting your book. I will. read it and talk to you about it. But I know what you're great. And I've heard enough about it. And there is a
Starting point is 00:11:41 great reset. And I just listened to your piece as I was waiting on Trudeau where he was saying things that are unthinkable. What he was saying is unthinkable. Unthinkable. And to think this is happening in Canada is hard to believe, actually hard to believe. It was pretty incredible to listen to that. they would have marched on the White House had you done that. And it's unexplainable. Let me ask you this. Last week, the DHS issued a terror bulletin targeting misinformation peddlers,
Starting point is 00:12:17 basically fill in the blank, whoever is an alternative media source. And they pointed directly at people that are simply asking questions of the authorities. I don't know if you've read that, but it seemed to be a threat or a way to intimidate conservatives. Have you read that bulletin? Yes. Because the New York Times article on you starts with the people who are peddling this so-called Durham truth are conspiracy theories, theorists, and pushing misinformation, which is exactly from the DHS terror warning. Right. Can you believe it?
Starting point is 00:13:00 You know, this is where Venezuela started 20 years ago. This is, and you look at what's happened to that country, that's happening to this country. And we had it going in a great direction. Then we got sidetracked by the China virus coming in, and that's a whole other subject. And then we built it back up again, and we did an incredible job with Operation Warp Speed like nobody's ever seen. And I've been given great credit for that. But it was an incredible thing we did in the timing. And by the way, therapeutics also.
Starting point is 00:13:33 The therapeutics have been incredible. And so many things were so good and so positive. And, you know, one of the things, if you question the election and just take a look at what's happened with the recent finding of the voter, the voting, what would you call it, where they... corral all the votes. They get them all and they drop them in the harvesting, I guess they would say. Right. The voter harvesting. Nobody's ever seen anything like this where people went back and back and back and back and stuff ballots. And it's coming out in Dinesh D'Souza. I think you feel as a very good guy is doing something.
Starting point is 00:14:18 I do. It's not him. It's what they found. The truth to vote people. And they found thousands of hours of of ballot harvesting, totally illegal, where they're stuffing the ballot boxes and taking pictures of themselves so they can get paid. And this is a whole big operation. And if you even mention it, they try and silence you as much as possible. But you're not silenced very easily, and I'm not silenced very easily. And, you know, with all the silencing, this Hillary Clinton thing that's turned out to be a monster. You know, the New York Times won't write about it. Washington Post won't. Think of it. They broke into the office of the president. it in the White House, and they haven't written one story about it that I know of. I haven't
Starting point is 00:15:01 seen anything. It's incredible. Well, I've seen one. I've seen one, and they call it misinformation. Oh, it's terrible. It's so incredible. It's so incredible that they can do that. These are very corrupt people. These are very corrupt people, Glenn. And you know that as well as anybody. And you almost don't even know why are they trying to destroy our country. You know, the media Our country can really never do what it has to do with a corrupt press, because that used to be like the policing agent, and now it's not policing. It's policing just what they want to police.
Starting point is 00:15:41 It's so corrupt, and you wonder, what are they doing? Why are they doing it? That's what I keep saying, why? Why do they want to have millions of people come in? You have the people come in. You know, why do they want to defund the police? You know, these things are so basic. and why do they want it?
Starting point is 00:15:59 And they really believe it, I think. Why do they want it? I will tell you when you read the Great Reset, it is the Rosetta Stone, because that was my main question. Why? What do they have to gain? Why would they do this? And when you see what the deal is, and all of them are in on it, Mr. Trump, or President Trump, all of them. And when you see, you understand tech, you understand the media, you understand big business,
Starting point is 00:16:27 you understand the corruption in Washington, you understand why leadership came out against you all around the world. It all makes sense. And if we don't really address it, we're going to lose our country soon because they're getting more and more arrogant and they also, I think, are afraid. I mean, I think Trudeau doing what he did yesterday shows
Starting point is 00:16:49 they're afraid. They're afraid of people waking up and standing up. Well, I will say this. Anger in this country, a tremendous anger. And, you know, it's interesting because it's sort of very similar when you look at Canada, what the truckers are doing. Plenty of Americans out there, too, by the way. But this anger is far greater than even what they have up there. And it's simmering. And they look at what's happened with the election. They look at what's happened with the borders, how people, how jails are being emptied into our country from other countries. I mean, we're having. having some of the worst people on earth are being dropped into our country. We're like a dumping ground, like a trash basket. And it's happening at a level that nobody believes possible.
Starting point is 00:17:42 You know, when they say 2 million people or 3 million people who went to the country this year illegally, I think the number is many times that. I think it's many times. Oh, yeah. And it's so bad. You go to Texas and you see what happens. Talk to the people living in Texas. they've never seen anything like it.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Talk to the people living in Arizona. They say it's like they're living in a different state. And this all took place over the last, less than a year. It's unbelievable what's happening to our country. And it just doesn't stop at the border states. I mean, they go right through and into the rest of the country. And then, of course, they're even delivered into the rest of the country. Forget about walking through.
Starting point is 00:18:22 They are delivered into the rest of the country. And we don't know anything about them. We don't know who they are. when they took this Afghanistan, which I think, and you do too, was the single greatest embarrassment in the history of our country. That was the single greatest. But when they took all those tens of thousands of people out, we have no idea who those people are. And in there, you have many terrorists. And we will be paying a big price of the future for that airlift, which was so grossly incompetent.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Horrible, yeah. Mr. President, I know you have a very tight schedule. I thank you very much for being on the program today. And keep your spirits up. America is a different place because of you in a good way. Thank you. Well, we have to get it back, and you help a lot. And I appreciate it very much.
Starting point is 00:19:12 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Senate colleagues, we have consistently opposed President Biden's federal COVID-19 vaccine mandates, which would force millions of Americans to choose between an unwanted medical procedure and being able to provide for their families. For legal, constitutional, and policy reasons, we remain not only strongly opposed to the mandates, but also firmly convinced that the risk of inaction on our part is unacceptably high. That is the opening paragraph from Senator Mike Lee, and it is signed by at least six of the top ten conservatives in Washington, D.C., Mike Lee, Cynthia Loomis, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Mike Braun, and Roger Marshall.
Starting point is 00:20:17 And Mike Lee is on with us now. Hello, Mike. Hello. Good to be with you. Thank you. So what is your plan? What are you doing? Look, we've got millions of Americans who are still under a vaccine mandates. And while the granddaddy of all of them has thankfully been rejected by the Supreme Court, and it's now been pulled back by the administration as a result, a number of dangerous federal vaccine mandates still remain.
Starting point is 00:20:47 And those mandates still cover many millions of Americans, huge sectors of the workforce. So meanwhile, the administration ignores natural immunity and the fact that vaccines are, you know, not necessarily stopping people from getting the virus. some of them have become less effective with the variance. So we can't claim to be a free country when the government's forcing millions of people to choose between a paycheck and an unwanted medical procedure. And so that's why I and my colleagues that I've mentioned are saying is enough and is enough. We've got these truckers in Canada and people across this country who know that the vaccine mandates are wrong. They're bravely standing against this authoritarianism.
Starting point is 00:21:31 So what we're doing is we're sending this letter saying we stand. with American workers and families. We stand with individual choice. We stand with millions of federal contractors, medical professionals, and federal employees and military personnel in saying that their freedom matters too. We shouldn't be funding the government without independently casting a vote on withholding funding for the enforcement of these unwise. So you have a continuing resolution, which is, you know, we don't pass budgets anymore.
Starting point is 00:22:06 just, yeah, just keep doing the same thing. And in it, you'd be funding the vaccine mandates. And what you want to do is vote first on no vaccine mandates in the continuing resolution. And then you'll vote for the continuing resolution. Otherwise, you're not voting for it? Yeah, that's the point, is that every time we pass a continuing resolution, it's sort of like a reset button. that continues to fund all of government at the same levels for a certain period of time. And what we're saying is that if you want us to vote on something like that, you need at least to give us an opportunity to vote to say, fund everything else in government, but not enforcement of the vaccine mandates.
Starting point is 00:22:58 And if they don't give us that, we're not going to make it easier for them to pass this faster. We have procedural rights in the Senate, and they need our agreement to expedite the vote on this, and we're saying we're not going to do that unless you give us a vote on defunded the mandates. So here's the question, because as part of the Blaze family, conservative review is with us. And they, I know you guys are among the top ten conservatives because they rank you. and it's a pretty fair ranking, I think. But when you look at Mitt Romney's score, Stu, what is it, 52? Something like that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Yeah, some like 52. And I believe Mitch McConnell is either 40 or 42. Is the leadership going to go with this? Look at it this way. We had another vote basically identical to this one. back in December when we passed the last continuing resolution. And we got, uh, uh, every Republican who voted that day, voted for the amendment voted to say we should not be funding the vaccine mandate.
Starting point is 00:24:20 It the vote ended up being 48 to 50 Democrats won. We had two absences that day. It otherwise would have been 50 to 50. Now since that time, the vaccine mandates have become even less popular. And since that time, Democrats have started to see that this whole fiasco needs to come to an end. They've started to realize how unpopular it is back home. So I think if we're able to cast this vote, I think we not only get every Republican, I think there's a decent shot. We've even got some Democrats who will vote for it because the American people don't want it. They know that it's morally wrong for government to tell people that if you don't,
Starting point is 00:25:03 bow to presidential medical orthodoxy, we're going to render you not only unemployed but unemployable. That's wrong. So when does this go up, Mike? When are you guys hoping to pull this off? The current continuing resolution expires on Friday. And so it'll happen sometime between now and the end of this week where they will need to move forward. In order to process this, they will need us, they need to give us a vote. Remember, they did this just back in December. There's no reason why they couldn't do that again now. And I think it's important that we do it now.
Starting point is 00:25:46 I think it would be irresponsible and disrespectful of those we represent to say, oh, no, we're just fine with telling moms and dads across America that they're not going to be able to put bread on the table if they disagree with the president about whether they should get jab. So this is HR 6-617, correct? Yeah, that's the number of the continuing resolution as passed by the House. When it comes over here, we want to vote on an amendment to it. Okay, so you need to call your senators and tell them that on the continuing resolution,
Starting point is 00:26:27 you want the Mike Lee Amendment and make sure that they hear your voice. It actually does matter, especially if they're on the fence, if they're just convinced otherwise, but there's a lot of people, even Democrats now, as Mike said, that could be swayed. So call your congressman on the continuing resolution in the Senate this week. You want the Mike Lee amendment passed, and you don't want federal mandates to be funded anymore. This protects all of our media, I'm sorry, media, protects all of our military, protects our healthcare workers,
Starting point is 00:27:08 and protects those who are working for the federal government right now. Mike, thank you for your work on this. Can I ask you a couple of other non-related questions? Of course. I should wait for you. Yeah. Okay. I just had
Starting point is 00:27:23 President Trump on a minute ago, and he said that this spying, if it is as we think it is with the Durham investigation and what facts we have. He says it's worse than Watergate. I tend to agree with him. It's much worse than Watergate.
Starting point is 00:27:42 Would you agree or not? Yeah, I tend to agree with you and with what you've described yesterday, which is this information, if this is true, this is a highly effective, highly intrusive, and extraordinarily breathtakingly illegal, form of manipulation that would put what happened in Watergate to shame. So yeah, this is really troubling. We will get to the bottom of it.
Starting point is 00:28:14 And I hope that happens quickly. Very, very troubling. Yeah. Last question. States all over the country are considering now, we've got about 23 states that are considering anti-ESG laws. Can you put the Great Reset in? into context for people on how important you think this is to what we're really facing?
Starting point is 00:28:42 Yeah. When people read your book on this very topic, they'll see some things that are coming that are very disturbing. And it's one of the reasons why we opt to look not only at what happens within governments, but also what happens within corporate America that can change outcomes for society that can diminish individual people. And how do you book is a great way to be informed on that. Thank you. How do you address people who say conservatives who say this is the free market?
Starting point is 00:29:21 They can do whatever they want. Well, it's really true. It's not limited to that. If this movement, if these things are happening as part of the Great Beach said, limited themselves to the free market. That would be one thing, but they don't. They're working arm and arm, hand in hand, across platforms, across nations and across governments and between governments and corporations. And so all of these things have to be taken together, and this isn't solely a corporate action. So it's not fair to say this is just a free market,
Starting point is 00:30:05 because these folks aren't content to compete with that. We've got a great leader in Utah. Our state treasurer Marlow Oaks has been talking a lot about ESG, and he's got a background in investing. And he's pointed out what a very significant threat this is to liberty and the fact that if this is allowed to take hold, this is where you get this very unholy alliance between governments and corporations that can really do a lot of harm to economies,
Starting point is 00:30:42 but especially to poor middle-class families in America. I have to tell you, Mike, if you look at what happened yesterday with the Treasury up in Canada, it is the Great Reset without being the Great Reset. It's just through emergency powers. It's terrifying. Really terrifying. Thank you, Mike. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:30:59 If you want to find out or help this guy, he is, he and Rand Paul have the highest score for conservatives in the Senate, out of all of them, and he's way ahead of all of them. You can help him stay and fight for the Constitution. Lee for Senate.com. Lee for Senate.com. Thanks, Mike. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:31:23 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. So I have a couple of people that I wanted to do. Justin Haskins. He is the co-author of The Great Reset. He is also the editorial director of the Heartland Institute, and editor-in-chief of StoppingSocialism.com. Hello, Justin. How are you?
Starting point is 00:31:55 Oh, I'm doing so well, Glenn. How are you? You're doing so well. Good. You got a little touch of COVID, I hear. I don't get the full-blown. No, no, no. You've got to be Canadian to get that.
Starting point is 00:32:09 So, Justin, hold on a second, because I also have Michael Murphy on the phone. He is a Kansas State Representative from Kansas, and he has, he's introduced a bill inside the Kansas House, February 9th, and referred it to the Committee on Financial Institutions and Rural Development the same day. And I think it's coming up for a vote soon. Michael Murphy. How are you, sir? Well, I'm doing pretty good, Glenn, and I do have to say that after listening to you last couple minutes, perhaps we'll be. need to get a prints on board to maybe pursue. I'm sorry, I missed that last part, to maybe what?
Starting point is 00:32:52 We need a prince to push this bill on through. Yeah, yeah. Well, I don't think you wanted that particular prints. So tell me what you, tell me how you got on to this and what it took to get it to the place that it's at and what's it going to take to get it over the hump there in Kansas. Well, I've been aware of like social credit score in China and ESGs for quite a while, probably due to you and a couple of others who have, you know, brought it to attention, you know, months or maybe even, you know, years ago. And I did happen to hear you interview with, with JD in New Hampshire a few weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:33:36 And that's, that sparked me to go ahead and do the bill. I think it's, I think it's a good bill, but I'll tell you what. coming out of the woodwork against it from the banking side. And some from the business side as well. Yeah, and they don't like they don't like it at all. And so we've got some real good support on one side. We've got some strong up deposition on the other. So, yeah, I'm just, I'm hoping we can catch the grass roots behind.
Starting point is 00:34:06 They're put some pressure. Yeah. They're trying to make this in. They're pulling Republicans off of this by saying, you know, that it's a, uh a you know freedom of the market and uh the free market and you know we don't want to tell businesses what they can and can't do um mike lee was just on and i just asked him about that argument and you should go back and listen to it because that's the argument a lot of republicans are starting to make and it's nonsense and i've read your bill um is section one no bank or
Starting point is 00:34:39 trust company doing business in this state either directly or through the use of an outside contractor shall discriminate against, advocate for, or cause averse treatment of any individual, business, or other customer based on subjective or arbitrary standards, including, but not limited to, social media posts, participation or membership in any club association or union, political affiliation, employer, social credit score, environmental, social or governance criteria, or other similar values-based or impact criteria. then you go on to say this doesn't mean that you I mean if there's safety for the bank because there's something else you can consider that but you just can't do this and of course you can look at somebody's loanworthiness and then it says you can offer ESG products but you have to explain what they are and then the penalties then you do the same thing for credit unions and what's the third one for or is there only two for state credit unions
Starting point is 00:35:43 unions. Oh, and for businesses. So you've covered them all, and it also says it doesn't change anything but this. So what's the argument? Well, the argument is from the bankers is they're afraid of frivolous lawsuits, as I said. And I made the comment, I said, you're afraid of something that's unknown while we are avoiding paying attention to something that's known, that's, you know, this big behemoth that's riding down on us, and you're worried about the little a guy with the, you know, with a rubber bow and arrow behind the tree, you know. Correct. Correct. I mean, you know, if I'm going to sue you, it'll be thrown out as a frivolous suit unless you are using a social credit score, unless you are, you know, using environmental social or governance criteria, or you won't do business with me because I voted for Donald Trump. That stuff we know is going to happen. We know it's going to happen. It already is. Yes. When does this come for a vote?
Starting point is 00:36:42 Well, sorry, go ahead. It's not been set for a hearing in the finance committee. They should set a date here maybe today or tomorrow. We'll take it from there. I did tell him, we had a meeting with a number of bankers' representatives and representatives to the speaker yesterday, and they voiced their opposition and their, you know, their proponent side as well. And I did tie it to them. Most of them are familiar with the CRT stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I did tell him we were lucky enough to have Jim Blenzie a week ago. And he tied. Excellent. Good job of tying the two together. And that's when I picked up about 12 more Coast Busters. Yeah. So anyway, that helped a lot. And then once he, uh, so anyway, I told them, I said, these two things are, are,
Starting point is 00:37:34 are in a machine. And if we can take a couple of them out, we can at least slow the machine down. And, and, um, and I told them, I said, I hope, I hope, I hope that. that you don't look back on this day and say, oh, we could have stopped this, and now it's too late. So what do you need people in Kansas to do? To contact the chair of the financial institutions, Representative Jim Kelly, the House majority, the House Speaker, and your individual representative. If you live in Kansas, send in your own words what you would like to happen
Starting point is 00:38:16 and tell them that it's important that this get through and they get a same. I can give you the email for Jim Kelly if you'd like. Yeah, sure, quickly. By the way, it's House Bill 2664. It's the anti-E-S-G bill. That's correct. It would be Jim.comely. That's K-E-L-Y at House.
Starting point is 00:38:44 dot ks.gov.gov, G-OV. Okay. And also the speaker would be good, too. And I'm getting a lot of good response, and I think pressure from the grassroots might push this forward. I appreciate it. I think you're going to be surprised at the grassroots on this one.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Thank you very much, Michael. I appreciate it. Let me go back to Justin. Justin, you have been one of the guys who have been working with these legislatures, you have another one in New Hampshire. They're going to vote on it either today or tomorrow. How's that going?
Starting point is 00:39:26 Right. Well, as we're seeing in many places across the country that are working on this issue, and there are about 20 states doing something on an anti-ESG bill, the biggest opposition we're seeing is coming, because all of these bills are being proposed in states where Republicans have most of the political power, if not all of it. What we're seeing is that it's the biggest opposition is coming from Republicans. And the Republicans who are arguing against it, it's not a majority of a, it's usually
Starting point is 00:39:54 just a small group of them. But they're saying this is a free market issue. And, you know, you just need to let banks and financial institutions and all these people discriminate against individuals and other businesses that they see fit because that's their argument. If it was a bank, great. but it's all of the banks coordinating with the government and big business on an agenda that doesn't, I mean, by their own words, they say it's not based on profit. It is based on environmental standards, social standards on making the world a better place.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Well, that's not the free market, man. That's not the job of the bank. That's not the job of Nabisco. No, that's exactly right. These are massive, often multinational corporations that have no allegiance to the United States at all in many cases, that have massive amounts of their ownership is overseas. They don't have any allegiance to the Constitution. They have special legal and tax advantages that the rest of us don't have. They regularly receive bailouts and government funding that regular people don't get. We're hand in hand with government. Many of them have lucidly. government contracts. They get trillions and trillions of dollars have been pumped into the financial system through the Federal Reserve over the past 10. It's the only reason this system is able to exist because they're all going to get rich no matter what they do with ESG scores. So the idea that this is some sort of a free market system is the most ludicrous thing imaginable. There's nothing
Starting point is 00:41:32 free market about this at all. Listen to this. This came in from Alex Wong. He's a reporter. And he's been watching this. He said, in his build back better legislation, President Joe Biden wanted to spend $570 billion over the next decade on green causes, mostly focused on climate change. Fortunately, that bill seems to be dead. And yet now the Biden Greens, that's to say, the green administration, have their eye on a bigger pot of money with which to pursue their climate agenda. The assets of American banks. These assets total nearly 23 years. trillion dollars according to the federal reserve. A crucial vote on whether or not this sneaky policy will proceed will be held, I think today, when the Senate Banking Committee votes on whether to advance Biden's Federal Reserve nominees, particularly the nomination of Sarah Bloom-Raskin. The Federal Reserve System, the Fed, as it's called, is the principal body that oversees and regulates
Starting point is 00:42:35 banking in the U.S. After the failure of build back better, the Fed is Biden's preferred mechanism for advancing his version of the Green New Deal. After all, the Fed has vast power over the banks, including whether or not they can lend money to or otherwise finance fossil fuel companies. From the Biden point of view, this seems like a clever strategy. It has been said of the banks, that's where the money is. Biden wants to gain control of the Federal Reserve's seven member board of governors. Of these seven slots, three are currently vacant. On January 14th, the White House named three candidates to fill those slots, all of whom are friendly to the Green Scheme and to the Great Reset.
Starting point is 00:43:17 If the trio is confirmed by the Senate, they will join a fourth Democrat already on the board, and the left will have gained control of the Fed. What do you think of that? I think that this is absolute the path forward for them. And we don't have to guess. We don't need speculation. They've been very open that this is what's going on. When they had that meeting in Glasgow recently for COP 26, they announced, and this was backed by
Starting point is 00:43:45 Joe Biden. It's got lots of support from the Biden administration. John Kerry was openly in favor of it, the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero. You just mentioned $20-something trillion in the United States tied up in banks. Well, the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero has more than 450 banks insurers and asset managers in dozens of countries around the world with total assets pledged toward enacting this whole great reset ESG scheme of $130 trillion. So the idea that this is just something that the little guy can, well, you know,
Starting point is 00:44:20 if your local bank's discriminating against you, you just go to a different bank. Oh, if a local corporation is discriminating, you just go to a, just buy from a different corporation. They're all going to be in on it. They're not going to have any choice. And the people who resist are going to be pushed out. They're already being pushed out by massive. asset managers on Wall Street, Black Rock, and State Street Global Advisors and others. So you will have to go along with this. I want to play Canada's Minister of Finance yesterday during the Trudeau
Starting point is 00:44:52 press conference on emergency powers. Listen carefully to what she says here. First, we are broadening the scope of Canada's anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use. These changes cover all forms of transactions, including digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies. The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowdfunding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the proceeds of crime and terrorist financing act. Okay, stop. Everybody is focusing on, you're saying that these guys are terrorists, the truckers are terrorists? No, it goes farther than that. You are funding a terrorist organization. So by default, you also are involved in terrorism. But even beyond that, this is aimed at, you know, give, send, go. Because the other crowd source, the crowdfunding source, decided they this is beyond this is too dangerous they're not going to do it
Starting point is 00:46:10 because they just don't like these truckers they're terrorists you know so they pulled out and tried to hold the money so give send go came up and they said we'll do it this is not just aimed at them give send go requires some sort of mechanism another party to take your credit card and process from your bank into give send go. They're attacking anyone like they will with the blaze. When they come, and they will, come to shut down the blaze, they will say, you know what, the blaze can do whatever they want.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Of course, if you are somebody who is a payment processor, I wouldn't be involved in that. And that cuts off all of our funding. That cuts off our banking, our ability to reach out to you and ask you for your credit card number so you can be a monthly subscriber. That's what's coming, gang. And they're doing it right now just under the auspices of the truckers and this emergency, you know, dangerous terrorist activity. Do I have this right or wrong, Justin? You know, you're 100% right.
Starting point is 00:47:28 This is actually not really about truckers. This is not even really about just what's going on in Canada. This is about resistance. And at any level, anywhere in the world, you're not allowed to resist. We're going to close all the off ramp. That's what this is fundamentally about. I would get your money out of those big banks, quite honestly, and I would put it in a local credit union or a very, very, very locally owned bank,
Starting point is 00:47:58 something that keeps all of their money and doesn't have ties to anybody else. but it's time to protect yourself. The hordes are at the gate.
