Together, we'll make a difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. The big breaking news today is Comey's indictment. He's been indicted on two of the three charges that went to the court. and he Grand juries

Stu, don't I have this right? Grand juries, they are presented with evidence and they say we have these three in this case, we have these three charges do you think we should pursue this? They go through it and then they say, yeah, you don't have enough or in this case you have enough for two

but not for the third. You're describing a functioning legal system. Yeah, right. I think that's the way it's supposed to work. Now, I mean, the criticism of that is what's the first. is you can indict a ham sandwich. That's what they always say.

You can always get it. No, I don't know if that's, you know, fair. In this case, John should know, though. Yeah, we have John Solomon, and we're going to go back to South Korea here in a second, but I want to get this from John. John from Just the News, he's the CEO and editor-in-chief. Can you tell me the mainstream media is trying to make it look like, oh, this is just political retribution?

How does this system work? The system worked the way it's designed to, which is that the Trump Justice Department wanted three charges. The grand jurors thought only two were warranted. That should give us confidence that this is the sort of indictment where you didn't do the ham sandwich. You had a thoughtful jury that looked through the evidence and said, listen, I know. I think people will see, by the time this case is over, that the evidence against him is going to come from his inner circle. What's evidence from that James Comey has Andy McKay, or his general counsel, who told that to the postal inspection service on some documents I broke a few weeks ago. And then there's a question about emails

and contacts with his chief of staff, James Rubicki. So when this case is made, you're not going to be hearing from some far-flung Trump witness. You're going to be hearing from three people on the inner-cirring the time when James Comey reigns supreme at the FBI. That makes us a very powerful case. His own inner circle will most likely be the witnesses against him at a trial. Okay, so can you tell me the third charge that didn't fly and then tell me the two that did? Testimony. We don't know exactly the statements they are. We know that they appear to come from questioning of Senator Cruz on one and one that makes it into the indictment.

2020 doesn't statements. We have some idea what the Cruz one is because that's been played time and again. And we know that was a source of a referral. Referral was made against James Comey. And it cited his answer to Ted Cruz. So we believe that that was an impetus for part of this investigation. A criminal referral that came in on that. So hang on.

Hold on. Hold on just a second. So you know, in case you don't remember the Ted Cruz exchange, he was saying, did you ever ask somebody to leak this information? Or did you do it? Were you involved in the leaking of this information about Russiagate at all? And he said, no. then people in his own circle said, well, that's not true.

That's right. And so now when Ted Cruz was asking him again, he's like, one of you is lying, which one is lying? And he doubled down and said, it's not me. So he was accusing the other people. But if I'm not mistaken, new evidence, including the people in his own inner circle, shows that, yeah, it was him that pushed it out.

What they're saying is that he author, it. So you've got, and we've known about for some down to in the 2020, came to light recently, only in the last couple of weeks of the story we broke, is an FBI document that refers to some postal inspection service agents who interviewed James Baker. And James Baker does something even more severe than what the indictment alleged. But he alleges that Comey not only authorized, he specifically authorized him to leak a piece of classified intelligence in December 20, excuse me, October 2016. So for the first time, we have an allegation from an inner circle member. Not only did James Comey asked me to be the source, what he asked me to leak was a classified

piece of information. Now, the way Baker describes it in this interview is that I understood from the chief of staff that James Comey had asked me to leak this piece, and I went and did it. So he says it comes through the chief of staff, and that's how Rubikki, the chief of staff, James Rubikki and James Baker are implicated in that second leak. It's important to note that the indictment did not seek a at the present time a charge of leaking classified information or authorizing the leak of classified information. But it does, it does say that he lied when he said he didn't authorize people. Now, any one of those three is to leak information. We could show up as witnesses there. We'll see how it ends up. Okay. So what does that mean if he would be found guilty?

What is a likely sentence? Exactly 50 years ago this year, John Mitchell, the attorney, general for Richard Nixon was convicted on two similar charges, false statements and obstructions. It's not ironic. Of course, that was in Watergate. He got about 18 months to three years, I think, was his sentence. These charges today carry five years. You could imagine anything from a suspended sentence if he's convicted to some prison time. We'll have to wait and see. A lot of that will come into. First off, what sort of trial does James Comey seek? Does he seek a trial by a judge or by a peer of jurors? That's one big thing that we'll have to be watching. But that will have an impact.

And then from that, you'll see a sentencing recommendation. And another dynamic to keep a close eye. And remember, we've been reporting that they're looking at a larger grand conspiracy case. Maybe James Comey was involved in more than this one alleged crime that is still in the statute of limitations. It may be what went on. And Russia collusion in 16 and 17 was an ongoing criminal conspiracy to abuse the criminal justice system to get Donald Trump. you could always imagine at some point a superseding indictment that's happened in cases like this. So there's a lot of uncertainties, a lot of history still to play out before we get to sentencing.

But we'd have to see that the first key thing is knowing whether this is going to be a judge trial or a jury trial. And we'll see what James Comey picks. Help me out on the people that say this is Donald Trump. He's just abusing the law, et cetera, et cetera. You know, he fired the guy, you know, on Saturday that wouldn't push it through. and so he's just going after his political enemies. Can you make a case and either it stands pretty strongly or where does that fall apart? I like to look at the words.

Obviously, President Trump injected himself into this process over the weekend. Decision to be made, quick to do it. Don't charge him. If he did do it, charge him. Let's get this over with. That is different than saying charge this guy no matter what, right? Right. And I think in Donald Trump's world, he's speed of light in his presidency. And the idea that a statute of limitations was coming up and no one had made a decision one way or the other was frustrating to him. Words he chose. He was not telling the Justice Department of the statute of limitations. Don't charge him if he is. Charged is a Comey critic and Comey is a critic of Donald Trump. Their battle is well known. History has shown that Donald Trump's assessment of Comey turned out to be more accurate than Comey's assessment of Donald Trump. Donald Trump was a Russian ass in the Biden administration.

That wasn't the case. There was no evidence saying that he had mishandled his job as the FBI director. The Justice Department Inspector General concluded that Donald Trump had proper grounds to fire James Comey. He did, in fact, abuse his job. So when you look at the referee, calling balls and strikes in this personal battle between two guys, Donald Trump's opinion of James Comey and his actions have been upheld. James Comey's pursuit of Donald Trump as a Russian threat has been. been debunked. And so I think that has to also be weighed into what people look at when they weigh

the facts and he and she battle that's going to play out. Believe me, the Democrats are suddenly going to be worried about weaponization of the Justice Department after years of ignoring it. I find it amusing that they're suddenly singing that song. Tell me about the other indictments that could be coming. Letitia James, you have Clapper. Where did those things stand. For subpoenas, issuing them, getting the evidence, and then deciding what should go before a grand jury and what does a grand jury think of that evidence. Fully staffed yet, eight, nine months into the presidency. That's an unfortunate thing. They're stretched ahead of the Justice Department. The number of lawyers to review congressional document requests is lower than what's needed. The number of prosecutors confirmed by the Senate. So there's dined up tons of new evidence. There's as many as 150 subpoena requests that are pending in different cases.

The Justice Department's working through them, but were they staff? We wanted the deep state to be shrunk. It got shrunk. It hasn't been filled quick enough yet. And so the Justice Department's lagging behind the evidentiary flow that the FBI has. I think they're looking at several people. I think the most likely next decision to be made is John Bolton. We saw the search warrant returns this week that John Bolton did, in fact, have classified information in his office in class destruction, very sensitive stuff it would seem to be.

That seems like that is ripening and ready. for a new thing. The question of whether all the... Why does that mean? It seems like everybody has classified information. So why is that one so important? He is a different figure than a Donald Trump was. Donald Trump had declassifying authority and had the argument before him that when I brought

things to one, that case, the case was dismissed. Joe Biden was in a much grayer area. He was a vice president. He didn't have absolute declassification authority. He took it with him. and the prosecutor assigned to that, albeit someone that came from the Trump administration, carried over into Biden,

said he was too old to prosecute. I don't know whether that was a great decision or not. People will debate that. But he was given a pass because he was old and fumbling and bumbling. A very different category. He had no declassification authority. He had plenty of training to say you do national security advisors who illegally take classified information with them.

I broke this story, security advisor, and tried a secret in his socks and pants, classified documents and steal them from the National Archives. He got prosecuted. So when you get down to the level of a John Bolton or a cabinet secretary, there is no presumption of declassification authority, and there is a long history of prosecuting them. And you keep mentioning it. I think you're right, Glenn. We have a classified theft of prosecuting people.

The deterrence factor is not there. And downstream from some of these elites are real consequences. Human sources get killed in the intelligence community. Spy operations get rolled up and exposed. Tactics of the U.S. military and the U.S. intelligence committee get exposed to our enemies, particularly trying to prosecute a John Bolton if the evidence warrants it, is to begin to send a message that, go on time, if you take anything out of your office and do it. And remember, one of the things we know, John Bolton did move some stuff to his classified emails,

moved stuff to emails, and then he was hacked. Our enemies got a hold of it. Hillary Berger didn't get a pass. John, as always, thank you very much. I have so many questions for you. We'll have you back next week. We'll get back again. Thank you.

God bless you. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Most of us just adapt. Maybe we set out a few family activities. Maybe we reach for the same old bottle of pain relievers. Every day. Every day we do it. And we're masking the symptoms.

And we're not doing anything about the root cause. But what if that wasn't the end of the story? Relief factor is not a quick fix. going to mask it.

But I want you to up that because I don't think you understand how bad the battle is going to be.

And in some cases, I do mean actual battle, Charlie Kirk kind of battle, where some of us will be killed. Hopefully that will be very rare and few and far between, but there are those that are arming. And so you have to decide how are you going to fight? Are you going to fight? What's worth fighting for? What's worth living for? You're going to stand on the sidelines? What are you going to do?

I am not going to fight that way. I am going to do, I'm going to put on the full armor of God. And I wanted to explain this because I think this is one of the most profound things in scriptures because people don't know how to fight. And in Ephesians, God lays it all out. He lays it all out for you. finally be strong in the Lord and his mighty power. I had a friend right before I went on the air.

I found out the dear friend of mine just died yesterday. And I'm in mourning again. And I got a lot of strength from him. And my first response was, why? Why? Why, Lord? Why are you taking all? Why are you doing this?

And I immediately said, I am sorry. My faith is in you. I know you know what you're doing. I don't understand. just help me understand. But I believe so deeply in his power. And I've seen his power at work in the last two weeks. And what he says to us is have faith in me.

Have faith in me. Put on the full armor of God so you can take your stand against the schemes of the devil. This is really important because when Christians say we have to put on the armor of God, we're going into battle. It's not against, and it says here, our struggle is not against flesh. and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. You are fighting.

You're not fighting your neighbor. You're not fighting your friends. You're not, you are fighting evil. Evil has entered into our world in a way I have never, ever seen before. And so you need to be prepared for that. battle. So when the day comes, you'll be able to stand your ground. And after you've done everything, stand. Stand firm then. Now, this is what the armor of God means. Gird your loins with the belt of truth. Gird your loins. I don't know how to gird anything, let alone my loins. What does

that mean? This is so good. And anyone with a back problem, you'll understand. What does every, You hurt your back. What does every physical therapist say you have to do? Strengthen your core. Strengthen your core. You go and you're hurting really bad. You go to CVS. What do you do?

You get a belt that you put around yourself. You get some sort of a back brace to hold your core together. Okay. So when it says put on the belt of truth, it's saying strengthen your core. Know what truth is. make sure you understand truly what truth is because there's deception all around you. And you've got to strengthen that core or you will be deceived. That's what that means.

Gird your loins in the belt of truth. The breastplate of righteousness. I just think this is so profound because it's hitting all of the, it's hitting the body and the spirit at the same time. It explains it so well. the breastplate of righteousness. What does that mean? Where do you feel bad when you've done things?

You feel it in your chest, don't you? You feel it in your gut. You feel it in your chest. And you're like, I'm just, when you start to doubt, when you start to doubt yourself, when you start to beat yourself up, when others are beating you up, you feel it in your chest.

In your heart, you feel it. It's saying here, be righteous. Always be righteous. always do the next right thing because that will guard you. You will have faith in God that you are doing the best you can. And so when the accusations come and say you're a despicable human being or whatever, you can have that bounce off of you because you know who you are because you have lived your life in a righteous way. Shod your feet in the gospel of peace. I don't, I don't even know what shodding is. Okay, but this I understand. what does that mean? It means you have to be ready to go anywhere the Lord asks you to go and share the gospel of peace. Remember, we're talking about a battle, war. Put your shoes on.

Make sure you are so deep into the gospel of peace that you can share it anywhere. And that takes you, if your feet are really, shod in the shoes of peace, that it's not taking you into battle and to war into killing people. You're going the other way. You're saying, don't go that way. The shield of faith. Take the shield of faith. What is besides self-doubt, what is the worst thing that can happen to you?

You start losing faith. You're like, why are we here? Why are we in this battle? What are we doing? we're not going to win we don't have a chance of winning look at how many people are against us doubt temptation put a shield up against that i know who god is i have faith in god i know he is i know he is a source of all power i know it and if i am strong in that shield if i can have that in front of me if I understand that and use that every day, it will bounce off of that shield.

And then there's only one thing that is given that is an offensive weapon. There's one thing. Full armor of God. You've got the breastplate. You've girded your loins. You got the shoes on. You get the helmet of salvation. Where does all of this stuff, all of this doubt, all of these things that you've done?

Where does that happen when you can't forgive yourself or you can't forgive yourself or you can't give others. Where is that happening? That's happening in your head all the time. It's a tape that's running over and over again. You're not good enough. You're not going to make it. Whatever it is. You shouldn't have done that. You're such a bad person. All of that crap, it's running in your head all the time. Put on the helmet of salvation. Except, wash yourself in the blood of Christ, accept the atonement. Take the free gift of forgiveness. Take it. Use it and then guard against anything coming into your head like that. Those are all lies. and then the one offensive weapon, the sword of the spirit.

That's what you're required to fight with. The sword of the spirit. What is that? That's the word of God. I know that if I am surrounded by evil, I may not get out of it in my physical form, but I know I will get out of it in my spiritual form by declaring the name of Jesus Christ.

He's my Savior. He's my Redeemer. Period. Charlie was so lucky that he had the opportunity to go that way. What a joy for him. He didn't get out of it, but he knew the truth, and he was fighting every day with the truth that he finds in the Word of God. Every day he was fighting. His everything he did.

his bedrock, that was his core. That's how he made all of his arguments. That's why they stuck. That's why people were listening to him because that's eternal truth. It is the word of God. It's eternal truth. And when you understand those words, you can express those words in ways I can't. Charlie could. I can't. You know why I can't? Because I haven't done all of this. Shame on me. And the last thing, and then pray. Pray in the spirit on all occasions. Pray. When people say, pray, what do they actually mean?

I'm asking for stuff? What is that? Our whole day should be prayer. Everything we do should be prayer. Every word I speak should be prayer. Every action I take should be prayer. Praising him, trying to be more in line with him. Why?

Because when it is that way, He communicates with me. I'm a clear vessel. You know, I don't hear God. I don't hear God. Well, you might not because maybe God doesn't communicate that way with you, but he is communicating with you. But you have to do your part.

It's not like, hey, okay, God, what do you want me to do? He's not going to do that. But he does communicate with you. And you have to be a clear, a clear channel, a receiving tower to. be able to receive what you have to hear. And when you're praying all the time, all you're doing is just, it's like GPS. It's just constantly realigning you to make sure you're on track. That's, that's how he's communicating with you. Just stay on my track. Just stay here. Just stay here. You know what's right. Just do the next right thing. Okay, you miss that one. Okay. At the next possible

turnaround, turn around, your next possible location, take a left. It's just GPS constantly aligning with him and saying, you're going in the wrong direction. That's why you pray. It's so important that we explain this to our friends that don't understand God at all because they're going to be lost. They don't know. Nobody's ever explained it. They don't learn it in school. They're not necessarily going to church.

And even if you are going to church, are they teaching you this stuff in a real way that actually you can apply to your life? and you can see the spiritual battle that is right outside of our doors, Pastor. Are you talking about it? So they don't know. And when they say Christian Nationalism, they're building an army. Yeah, an army like this, I am proud to build an army like this. And that's the only kind of army that will defeat evil. And that's what we fight.

There are a couple of things that Charlie Kirk had just started saying internally. And the first one I'm going to address, in a speech right before he died. He was talking about how it is important now to start really paying attention and start talking about the war with Islamists that we're actually in that I don't think people realize we're in.

We are in a war with Islamists, not Islam with Islamists, people who believe in Sharia law. And it is happening everywhere over in Europe. And we are losing Europe quickly because no one will stand against the Islamists. They have infiltrated. They have taken over. And Europe and the UK will be an Islamist state soon. And then you're dealing with Islamists with nuclear weapons. So that's something we have to keep on our radar.

The second thing, and by the way, gang, it just... Hear me, please. We are being isolated. the West is being completely dismantled and only because of Donald Trump are we not continuing to go down that road? We have a very short window to really change our ways to wake up and start being the beacons that we need to be. Because it's happening all around us, which brings me to the second thing that Charlie had promised. He had been over in South Korea. you saw the the candlelight vigil he had over in South Korea after he died,

all these young students. I am Charlie Kirk and doing a candlelight vigil. And it was amazing and heartening. That's because he was just with them. And they are this young group that they see, it's like our Tea Party in T-P-USA, they see what's going on in their country. And they are very concerned. And they are trying to alert amazing.

America to wake up and not only change things in their own country, but also say, please, America, please wake up. Please don't turn your eyes from us because we're about to be gobbled up and lost. Charlie had met and had spoken with one of the religious leaders, Pastor Soun, and there were rumors that he was going to be arrested. and he is a massive figure, massive figure in South Korea. And his church has tens and tens of thousands of people that attend. And they were accusing him of all this crazy stuff that he was, you know, illegal campaigning, everything else. And he wasn't, it wasn't happening. Everything that this guy has done is biblical and legal according to the South Korean Constable.

institution, okay? But he was a major figure speaking out against this new really dangerous, corrupt and communist, authoritarian style government that now is running and in full control of South Korea. It is not a friend of the United States, okay? The people are, this new government is not. They are a friend with China and North Korea. So we just put a picture of Charlie up with Pasterson because he said he was there and he said, I'm going to take a picture of you. And if you go to jail, I can't believe they're going to arrest you. But if you go to jail, I'll post this and I'll make this famous. Well, he went to jail when Charlie was shot. And so I'm trying to pick up in my small way and urge others to do the same because this is so important. This is a chilling preview for us.

I told you last hour that kind of the history, you kind of remember it. Remember they had this guy. He was a Korean Trump. And he was going through exactly what Donald Trump was going through in 2016. Except this guy made a mistake. He decided to declare martial law because his back was up against the wall. He had nowhere to go. They were just killing him, just killing him.

and so he made the mistake of declaring martial law. Then everyone turned against him because that's what the left had been saying. He's a dictator. He's a dictator. He's a dictator. So they impeach him. They destroy him. And then they start going after anyone who was a supporter of the conservatives.

Okay. They're now down to the pastors. Please hear that your religion has. never been tough to live. You have not known religious persecution for 200 years in America. We have not had it. You've had arguments with people over religion, but you have not had persecution. Now South Korea, because they must get rid of the Christians. They must silence the churches, because these pastors are awake. These pastors are saying,

here's what the Bible says about dictators in totalitarianism and authoritarianism. Here's what the Constitution says, and we have a right and a responsibility as Christians. And they're not telling you who to vote for anything else, but they're awake, and they're telling people, wake up, wake up.

And millions have been going to the streets. So Pastor Soon, he is the head of the South Korean megachurch, He was arrested for illegal campaigning and endorsing conservatives from the pulpit and rallying against an anti-discrimination law that he calls anti-biblical. What was that? That was the trans bill. It's the same stuff that we're doing here. You know, trans in, you know, in children's bathrooms, everything else. And he's like, no, that's not biblical. And we cannot do it.

And millions came into the streets. And that's when he got in trouble. But he's not alone. The Unification Church, the leader in that one, Han, Pastor Hahn, he was jailed on September 22nd. And I don't know if you've ever heard of this. This is a big guy, evangelical Billy Kim. He's a big guy here, but also in South Korea. I mean, his home was raided.

They are flipping the National Security Act to target Christians and target conservatives. Now, don't forget the trade unions. SEIU is part of this mess over there, their partnership with some of their trade unions. We know about SEIU. Some of the protests have deep ties, historic solidarity with U.S. unions like AFL, CIA, CIO, and SEIU. And they, you know, they're on the same wavelength. We can't check money, no direct funding, funding or anything like that. but it is a global labor network.

We know that. Workers of the world unite. Espionage. South Korean labor officials have been actually caught meeting with North Korean agents in China, Cambodia, and Vietnam from 2017 to 2019. This is something that the president was trying to bring up. And one of the reasons why he said, I can't trust the parliament or the assembly anymore because you guys are all in with China. They have opened the borders. Does this sound familiar?

They're opening the borders, but these are Chinese that are coming in and bad guys from North Korea. They are stirring up anti-American sentiment. They're gathering U.S. military base intelligence. No China ties, but using their soil. It's not good. This is a global operation. And we are in the crosshairs. and they're taking out, I mean, look, if they take out South Korea,

you have no chance of doing anything to help Japan or anybody else. China owns Asia, owns New Zealand, owns Australia, owns it. We have no base in South Korea. They are weakening us everywhere, and they're turning their populations into communist authoritarian, loving drones. And it's happening here. We see it.

It's happening in our schools. Everything that is happening here is happening everywhere in the West. So anybody who thinks this is just Donald Trump and the Democrats, you're wrong. You're wrong. This is global in nature. That's why when the president is speaking at the UN, that's why they don't like him because he is saying, We're not going down this globalist route. We are going to be separate and independent countries.

And we can work together and we want to work together. But we are not working together under one flag, one umbrella, period. And the only ones that are truly willing to die for this in the end are Christians. And they know it. the others that will die for their religion are Islam. That's the next battle that will be fought. Because if they take control of Europe under Sharia law and it's Islamist, whether you like it or not, you're going to be fighting that battle.

Because that is, I mean, Thomas Jefferson said that was our first foreign war. And when he stopped it because there was no stomach for it, he said, okay, I just want you to know, you need to watch this group of people because they actually believe the things in the Quran. They actually believe that you can be their slave because you're not a Muslim. These are Islamists. They actually believe in Sharia law. And he said, when we stop that war, just warn, you should keep your eye on them because it's our first foreign war. and if we don't, these people will not quit and it will end up being our last foreign war. So the scene is being set and the scene here in America is being set for real trouble on the streets.

You see these things that are being said. It is time for your friends and neighbors to sober up. You're seeing these lies being told. I mean, it's everywhere now. Everywhere, they're saying, I mean, I heard some officials say, was it Comey? Who was it? That said, this is not a possible authoritarian government. This is an authoritarian government. If you're preaching that every day, then what do you have left? Then there's no way your ballot box matters. It's an authoritarian government. You know, as Gavin Newsom is campaigning, let's be honest, that's what he's doing. He is campaigning. He wants to be the nominee. As he's doing that, he's also saying there won't be an election in 2028. Well, again, if you believe that and your followers believe that, there is no other choice.

Would you go back in time and kill baby Hitler? Well, we're not talking hypothetically going back in time and baby Hitler. You're talking about actual Nazis now, actual authoritarians. and no belief in the system that can actually thwart it. They keep saying that he's used the system. He's weaponized the system. Are you joking? Did you not see what the Democrats and the leftists have been doing with our system for almost two decades now?

it is so perverted and maybe you're too lost. But I'm not going to give up and I'm not going to give up hope and I'm not going to give up faith at another dear friend taken last night who is a spiritual giant in my life and in the life of our nation and our religion, our faith, not my faith, all faith. He was 56 years old. Vodibokum. one of the greatest freedom fighters. I've spent so much time with him, learning from him, watching him, encouraging him, him encouraging me.

And yet another one is lost. I don't know why God is taking all the strong ones. But the fight is now. The fight is now. And our fight is with the full armor of God. Our fight is without guns. Our fight is with the truth, but things have changed. And this is a new season.

And I want you to pray. And I want you to decide whose side are you on. And that doesn't mean Republican or Democrat. That means are you on the side of true actual freedom, universal truths? All men are created equal. all men have a right to free speech. It's wrong to shoot people down in the streets because they believe something different. It is wrong to put people in prison because they think differently.

We can disagree on this is corrupt, that is corrupt, and we can see, but we can strive to make it better. Together, together, united we stand. I couldn't let the week pass without talking to Ryan Morrow. He's a Capital Research Center investigative researcher. Counterterrorism expert. He is the guy that really, the DOJ is preparing probes into Soros and the open society, everything else. Because of what Ryan did and exposed on this program,

what was it last week, two weeks ago? When was that, Ryan? I think it was about a week ago. Just a lot has happened. Yeah, I know. It has. And now, I mean, first of all, explain what you exposed and then what the DOJ is doing.

So when I was doing my regular investigation into the anti-Israel anti-Semitic groups, the question of funding was always coming up. And so I had this amazing realization, which is that nobody had gone through all of George Soros' grants from his Open Society foundations to all these different groups. It just been drips and drafts, but no one had actually systematically gone through it all. So it took me many months, but I did that. And the grand total, based on his own records, was over $80 million since 2016,

going to domestic terrorists and criminal groups in the U.S. and pro-terrorism groups in the U.S. and around the world, including many that very obviously tied to foreign terrorist groups, both communists and Islamists. And so we put together this report. I release it with you on Charlie Kirk's program, exactly one week after his martyrdom. And I know that you and your team did everything that you could to get it to President Trump. I was using my own context, obviously, but fewer. They started hearing some good things, but you never know. And then it just gets reported yesterday by the New York Times that citing this report that we released,

the Justice Department from the Deputy AG actually put out orders to attorneys in, I think, six states to prepare probes into SORAS and the Open Society Foundation's, and I hope the grantees and not just all the way at the top. And there's a whole bunch of other things that can be done beyond what's being talked about and argued about right now that aren't being talked about, and I hope soon are, because there's easier or more effective things that can be done. Like what? This is a bad thing.

I mean, take away the tax exempt status. Like the majority of the report is showing about how there's a spot in the IRS tax code saying that a tax exempt nonprofit cannot engage in criminal activity. They can't sponsor it. They can't participate in it. Even use the word encourage at one point. And so that seems to me the logical starting point. And the most radical groups, including one, truth out, actually wrote an article about our research that we did on the anti-Israel network. and they were freaking out.

They said that this would be that doing this type of thing would result in, I believe they called it a quick death for most groups and the ones that remain, they said, would suffer from mass chaos. So they said that's the option that's going to hurt them the most. And then there's a bunch of other things I could also propose. This is why when Trump and Elon Musk went after USAID, they freaked out because that was a source of a lot of funding going to these NGOs and they couldn't have those cut off.

When you go after somebody like Soros and the Open Society where his fingers are in almost every pie, it's right, it will cause chaos, but they're not going to go away quietly. They're not going to just take it. What do you think? What's the other side of this? I think they're going to, at the very least,

try to turn it into a political victory. and then get more aggressive as they start losing. But I think they still don't get it. I think that they're nervous, but they're not panicking like they should because they're so arrogant. Because when you go to their website, they say the grants are on their website, which is the basis of this report. Those are the ones they're comfortable sharing. They said if releasing this information could damage the operations of themselves or a grantee,

they're not going to put it there. So this horrific stuff is what they're comfortable telling the world and then feeling like they can get away with. And their public statement that they put out was basically just, no, we're not doing that. Didn't deal with a single fact, nothing. Just they're trying to take our free speech away, as if everyone is just guaranteed tax exempt status no matter what you do. Right. No, that's a privilege. That's why it exists. But yeah, it's going to heat up.

So the Open Society Foundation, let me take three organizations. And you tell me, how are they connected to terror? The Sunrise Movement. So they're supposedly just about climate change. Actually, they're very favorable towards the Chinese Communist Party, and they say they're nonviolent, but they don't condemn violence fully, and that's why they promote things like the Antifa anarchists in Stop Cop City and tell people to donate to them.

The Movement for Black Lives. This is not Black Lives Matter, Inc, is it? Or is it? It's not. They would say they're part of the movement, but then the movement has entities within it. And so this would be a powerhouse within them. They endorsed the October 7th attacks, and then they and a bunch of other Soros-linked groups put together a protest guide that you think is just about how to talk to people and put something like that together. No, there's instructions and incitement for criminal activity and stuff that will qualify as domestic terrorism.

How are you going to get – because George Soros has got to have some of the best attorneys in the world. How are you going to get it to him or does it matter that it goes to him? This network is so big that you can do a lot of good without it getting to him, but I think you can get it to him. I mean, at the very least, ripping away the tax exempt status would do just, I mean, that would just cripple his network. He has so much Monday still be around, but that would be a very bad situation for him. There's other things you can do like designating foreign entities and individuals as transnational criminal organizations or for involved in terrorism and other things. and then kind of stitch it together because that would sever the link between the U.S.

and the international networks, and then that gives you the basis for launching investigations against those that are in the United States and have those ties, because that's evidence of criminal activity. So there's a whole range of things that could be done. Any idea how long you think this is going to take the Justice Department before they actually are ready to press charges

or do whatever it is they're going to do? The impression I get is that it's very urgent and Trump is definitely demanding immediate, action and he's not the most patient man in the world. So I imagine that you'll hear things moving. I think if it's fully grasped what can be done through the Treasury Department and IRS with the tax-exempt situation, and if they were to have a meeting with folks who say this like Capital Research Center and myself, it would not be hard for us to deliver the damning evidence that they need against organization after organization after organization. And just one day you just start hearing

about dozens of groups and then dozens more groups having their statuses removed. And politically, it would be a health storm. I mean, it would be quite the fight, but it would be one well worth it and one that I believe we would win. Tell me what you know, if anything, about the John Brown Society. The John Brown Gun Club. Yeah. Yeah.

So they are Antifa. They would call themselves anti-fascist, even though they don't put Antifa in their name. but they have material that is in favor of the popular front for the liberation of Palestine on their website, and they're basically a militia, even though they deny it. And that's also where I try to stop saying far left and far right in regards to these organizations because they're very pro-gun. Like there is some truth to like the idea that there's like a complete circle where you go really far to one side. You end up on the other side of the spectrum because they're very pro-gun.

militia-like, and PFLP, the group that they are quite fond of, participate in the October 7th attacks. So that's a little bit concerning. In fact, most of this infrastructure, even though they're pro-Hamas, is actually more loyal to PFLP, the Marxist

Leninist terrorist group, that almost no one talks about, even though October 7th was a joint communist Islamist terrorist attack. It's just, everyone just thinks of Hamas and kind of leaves it there. Gosh, you remember what I said, that Islamists and communists would work together,

and everybody said that was nuts. And I'm like, of course they want to destroy us and the Western world first. They'll absolutely work together until they've accomplished that. Then it's going to get ugly. Then it'll get ugly. They basically merged now. You were right about that then, and then it became increasingly true. And now it's like one machine where you hit a button, and they all work together.

And so you have the anarchists there. You have all sorts of extremists in there. That's why I personally call it the seditionist movement and sometimes the global seditionist movement because there's foreign governments involved in that. Because even the white supremacists and people that would be called supposedly far right, when you tackle the problem like I do and you're in that ecosystem 24-7, you see that it's almost like a single entity and it's all of us who mean well and want civil society to function well, even if we disagree on everything. It's all of us on one side, and then it's all these other guys who want to basically burn everything down and spread poison everywhere. They're on the other side. Ryan, thank you so much for everything you do. I couldn't let the week go by without saying congratulations and thank you.

So somebody who's watched George, you bet. Somebody who's watched George Soros forever and ever and ever and been saying, why aren't we looking into any of this? Finally, you did, and now the government is taking heed and maybe we'll see some justice here. So thank you.
