The Glenn Beck Program - Glenn Explains Trump's 'Crazy' Foreign Policy Strategy | Guests: Harmeet Dhillon & Peter Schweizer | 1/19/26

Episode Date: January 19, 2026

Many on the Left are claiming President Trump is acting crazy and reckless and claiming that he wants war. But Glenn argues they’re looking at everything the wrong way. The question we must ask is: What does a man do when he believes the world order is already collapsing and nobody wants to admit it? President Trump is making all the moves necessary to save Western civilization. Glenn explains that while Trump’s foreign policies may look crazy, they are precisely what is required. Author of the upcoming book “The Invisible Coup” Peter Schweizer joins to discuss the enemies within our own country who are striving to cause violence between Americans. Glenn and Peter discuss the weaponization of immigration and the issues that arise when immigration goes unchecked. DOJ Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon joins to discuss the Insurrection Act and the potential for FACE Act arrests after an incident in Minnesota in which anti-ICE protesters stormed a church.  Learn more about your ad choices.

What the hell is happening in Europe with Greece? Greenland. What is happening with Canada? Have you heard what Canada is now doing? Huge, huge, colossal news out of Iran last night. What is Don Lemon doing in Minnesota? Trump has got 1,500 National Guard that are training. Meanwhile, DSA is training activists in New York for more action like what is happening in Minnesota. The economy, 60% of the U.S. population, says this Trump economy is weak. The DOJ is not prosecuting. It seems like Donald Trump, if you're, if you're just looking at certain things that Donald Trump is doing what we don't need around the world and ignoring the things we do need, economy and corruption, or is he prioritizing? I have a, you know, I started working

on this. It started coming to me when I saw what he did in Venezuela. And I, I have a complete different view of what this president is doing. And I think this is a point of departure. If you don't understand what Donald Trump, what I believe he's doing, you're going to get lost because it's going to get dicey for a while. And if you don't understand why it's happening, it won't make sense to you. So give me a few minutes and I'll explain that. First, let me tell you about rush tax. If you have received a letter or notice from the IRS, don't put it off. The IRS doesn't usually send love letters. They send these things because a deadline is coming and if you miss, they act. This is especially dangerous if you own a business and are behind on the payroll taxes.

Don't worry, they hired 85,000 IRS agents to come after you. But nobody seems to care about what's going on in Minnesota. Anyway, they'll seize your bank accounts. They'll come after you personally. You need to make sure that you get to rush tax resolution. They have an A plus rating with the BBV and they are the only company that I would recommend. dealing with IRS problems. When you mentioned my name, Rush will provide a free IRS transcript investigation, a service other firms typically charge about 500 bucks for, often without even confirming if they can help you. Rush offers this upfront and free, and they will only take your case if they know they can help you, period. So don't wait or hope the problem disappears.

Gosh, with Canada, I can't wait to get into that with Mark Carney and what Mark Carney is doing up in Canada, cozing up with China in a big way. This is not going to go well. You know, the Iran news, Iran, somebody hacked into all of the television stations yesterday, and the Crown Prince spoke for the first time to the Persian and Iranian.

people and it was amazing. We get into that. Minnesota is absolutely on fire. And then I'm seeing this stuff about Greenland and, you know, the German chancellor saying, we might hold back some athletes, you know, coming to World Cup. And you're like, oh, really? That's okay. Because Trump is now putting a 10% tariff on everybody in NATO. And people are saying, and this is logical. Wait a minute. Those are our allies. Listen, listen. Listen, I think I understand what he's doing. And it is exactly what we have been begging someone to do. It's just happening at such a rapid pace.

You can't get your arms around it. So let me go through what I think is happening. Because I heard people say, Donald Trump, is he trying to get us into a war? Is he crazy? Is he just arrogant? Mm-mm. The question is not whether his language

offends our allies or unsettles markets or whether he's just arrogant or whatever. The question is, whether you like him or not, the question is this, what does a man do when he believes the world order is already collapsing and no one else is willing to admit it? And no one is standing up for his country. Because if you strip away all of the insults, all of the bluster, all of the tweets, you're not left with chaos. You're left with a pattern. And that's what I do best. I see patterns and I follow patterns.

So hear me out on this. What if tariffs are not really about taxes or trade? What happens if peace deals aren't actually about peace? Pressure on Iran, Venezuela, the Middle East, and even Greenland. what happens if that's not what you think it is? Because they're not disconnected. They are moves on a board. Most leaders refuse to acknowledge even still exists

because the board was taken away by Woodrow Wilson. Oh, I can't believe I get to talk about Woodrow Wilson again. Not too much. Trump is not trying to manage the post-World War II order. He's trying to kill it before it kills us. Now listen, hear me out. Clear your mind of everything you think and just hear this and let it settle just in an empty room for a second. Before you start putting all the other thoughts that you have in it, just let just hear it out. He believes, rightly or wrongly,

that the American system built by Woodrow Wilson and then again after 1945 with Bretton Woods has been captured. It was hollowed out and it was used and turned against the United States, the nation that created it. So globalization, which was supposed to spread prosperity, concentrates power. The institutions it created no longer stabilize. All they do is delay collapse because they're not looking forward anymore. and that if you wait politely while the debt explodes, while supply chains fracture, while rivals prepare, that's the important one, while rivals prepare, that's not wisdom, that's suicide. So when you think this is overwhelming, what is he doing? Think of this. if you everything that you've learned since 2008 about the Tides Foundation and about Soros and

about the DSA and all of the things you've learned about that's taken us 25 years to learn about if we would have seen them do this in 12 months how overwhelming would it feel right it would seem like it was chaos, like what the hell is happening, right? Well, we've watched the global elites prepare while we've done nothing. We have watched over the past, I mean, 25 years for sure, but it's been going on longer than this. We have watched Davos, the World Economic Forum, the UN, China, Russia, even the Saudis, four years ago, three years ago, were saying we're going towards China. They have all made moves slowly over 20 years to put America in this box. The left made their moves over the last 40 years as well with the schools, the Tides Foundation, the Muslim

Brotherhood, CARE, DSA. Do you know that the Democratic Socialists of America are training a thousand citizens for resistance in New York right now? You know our treasuries have been drained through corruption for the NGOs. We know that now. Meanwhile, what have we been doing? We've been saying something's got to do something to stop it. That's why everybody's so focused on the DOJ. And I'm going to get to the DOJ, especially tomorrow, but I'm going to get to the DOJ in a minute. Trump has done 20 years of work in one year.

I don't think any president has done more, like it or not. I don't think any president has done more in 12 months, one year than Donald Trump. and you may not like it, but you need to understand it. Because you know and I know, we are looking at the possible end of America and the Western civilization, right? Isn't that what we're all fighting for? I was fighting for my country, but I believe Western civilization is at stake. And he is mobilizing all of the resources that he has to prepare for that. So when that big battle comes, when that thing breaks, we don't go the way of the Great Reset.

Remember, that's what the Great Reset is. The Great Reset was to overwhelm the system, to destroy our borders, to get people out in the streets and everything else, and put all of this framework in. So when it did collapse, it would fall into that framework of the WEF. That's exactly what Donald Trump is doing. But I also believe he sees war coming on the horizon. So let me go back to tariffs. Tariffs in his mind, I don't believe, are economic policy. They're stress tests.

Who folds when access to the American markets is threatened? Look at who retaliates. Look at what's happening with Canada. Is Canada our friend? He puts a stress test out and they fold and run to the Chinese. They've exposed themselves. They think that he's so authoritarian that they'll run to the Chinese. So he has exposed the leadership of Canada as not being people who are really in for freedom

because they will run to the Chinese. The stress test of the tariffs. Who cannot survive without us? Look at peace deals in a totally different way. Let's just say the peace deals are not necessarily about harmony. They're about freeing bandwidth. Hear me out on this. It's about putting out small fires before the larger ones ignite.

Look it. What was the first thing he did when he got in? He made peace in the Middle East. Can I ask you, what has been our biggest distraction over the last 40 years? It's been the Middle East, right? We're always being dragged into war into the Middle East. Somehow or another, we're always over there. He knows if we're going to be a strong country, we cannot be in the Middle East.

So he makes peace in the Middle East and he brokers it in such a deal where it's not, they're not coming to us. They now all have a peace in that deal. And so they're now responsible for it, not the United States. We're not the big boy saying, hey, get back to the table. They're at the table and they have to hold it together so we can focus on other things. Iran, Venezuela, Greenland, these are not crazy obsessions with him. They are nodes. They're nodes of energy.

They're nodes of minerals. They're nodes of currency dominance. They are nodes of missile warning, Arctic control. You know, when you look at Greenland, try this out for size. Imagine just changing this way of thinking. Global warming, global warming, global warming, global warming. the poles are are are melting if the if the poles are melting you have a couple of ways to go we got to stop the poles from melting quick everybody ship air conditioners up to the polar bears

okay we got to stop we got to stop making things because we got to stay got to save the polar bears okay that's one way of thinking it another way is saying wait a minute if the poles do melt the whole world is going to reshape and that makes the artist shipping lanes. Shipping lanes. That's the Middle East, only colder. He sees the future. And unlike the polite architects of multilateral

management, thank you Woodrow Wilson, he doesn't trust committees to secure the choke points in a world of scarcity. That's what we're headed for. A world of scarcity. When you are a world that is collapsed on its own weight because I've told you everyone is collapsing. This has never happened in world history. Everyone has abused their currency. So everyone is collapsing at once. So what does that mean? That means even if there's no war, the shipping breaks down. The supply

systems break down. And you have to be self-contained. So what did he do over in Europe? The first thing he said was, you guys have to take care of yourself. And you have to stand up in your own country for your country. Don't depend on this globalism. It's not, it's not, it's not real. It's not gonna happen. Now, his worldview, I started looking at this up, it's, it's not new. In fact, I mean, you can find it all the way back to the Greeks. But in America, if you look, this is more Hamilton, not Jefferson, more Hamilton and George Washington. Let me explain a couple of things. Washington and Hamilton, both of them believed, I mean, Washington used to say in his farewell address, and it was ignored for the last century, he said alliances, don't get yourself in complicated long-term alliances. Alliances are temporary. We have all of these long-term alliances like NATO and we're like, what the hell are we even in NATO for? What do they do for us now? It was important back then, but is it important today? That's Washington. Washington saying they are temporary. Use them, but be. be friends to everyone.

But things are going to change. So that's what he's testing. He's testing now. Who is really an ally and who's not? Also, trade has to serve national strength. That's Washington and Hamilton. Debt is dangerous, especially of its external. And industry has to be protected.

Lincoln, McKinley, the American system of production before protection became a dirty word, before Woodrow Wilson. This is the belief that sovereignty precedes morality, that nations survive by strength, not speeches, that systems decay, whether we acknowledge it or not. Let me take a one minute break and come back and tell you, there are three kinds of leaders, and I know which kind of leader Donald Trump is.

And if you start to unlock this, you will understand exactly what's going on in the world with Donald Trump. More in just a second. First, let me give you 60s. seconds to tell you about rough greens because i've seen what it could do for years with my dog uno uh my dog uno was slowing down and i just assumed that it was age and so he started adding rough greens to his food not changing it just adding it and we saw huge difference first of all he ate every i mean he would race to his bowl he had more energy he would lick it clean he never did that i have no doubt that

your dog is going to love uh rough greens as much as uno did and uh you know how important his or her is to you. Rough Greens is not a dog food. It's live nutritional supplement. You sprinkle on top of your dog's existing food. It will help fill all of the gaps. It's got everything your dog needs. Don't change your dog's food. Just add Rough Greens.

He's a guy who walks in to any room and changes the game. Okay? He sees the world differently. Let me give you three kinds of leaders. The first kind of leader is the manager. Now, I want you to think of George W. Bush.

George W. Bush, we all knew at that time, we were at the beginning of a decline in America. And he made everybody, feel like, no, America's going to be fine, but he didn't change anything. In fact, he violated the free market to save the free market. He was actually making it worse. He was playing into the W.E.F and the UN and this managed decline of America. But he was making us, he preserved the appearance, okay? That's the manager. Denies that there's a problem, but could participate in another solution just in case. Then the next one. is the idealist. And I contend this is partly Barack Obama, except Barack Obama saw the decline and was instrumental in designing the net that we would fall into. Okay. But the idealist is the

next kind, Barack Obama. He doubles down on the moral language that we're going to be a better people and we're going to be more tolerant and we're going to be all of these moral things. And everybody gets excited about moral and you forget about the decline. Okay. That was Barack Obama. Now you have one other and they're very rare and they're usually not liked at the time that they are alive. And that's the disruptor that sees that all of this is falling down and it's like, wait, if it falls down and I do nothing, everybody else right now is laying claim to the table. They're laying claim to all of the stuff right.

right now. If we let this fall, they're going to lay claim to all the stuff that we have and we have nothing, which is exactly the UN, the WEF, China, Islamists, George Soros, all of that stuff. Okay? You'll own nothing. You'll own nothing and you like it. And so the disruptor comes in and he says, you know what, this system is breaking anyway. I'm going to break it and I'm going to break it fast and I'm going to break it the way that these chips all fall our way because we're going to survive in the end. That is Donald Trump. That's who he is.

And he instinctively knows. And if he wins, if he wins, the world doesn't become more gentle because it's not going to become more gentle. We are headed for tough times. No matter who wins this, tough times are coming. But it doesn't become gentler, but it does become clearer. Globalization doesn't return. The world fractures into different blocks, smaller blocks,

neutrality becomes very expensive. Alliances become conditional like they used to under the founder's term. Security comes with expectations. And we're harder to coerce, less sentimental, less patient. The risk here is that not if Trump is wrong, the risk is he may be very right, but just a little too early. There's an old line that says life is like a dog sled team. If you're the lead dog, it's great.

If you're the one behind the lead dog, scenery never changes. You're just staring at. Anyway, that's true for countries as well. If the United States is going to lead again, really lead, we have to rebuild the things that made us strong in the first place. And that starts with making things here the right way, with pride and purpose. One company is doing that, and it is American giant. At a time when so much clothing is made over six,

with corners cut and quality ignored. American Giant makes the best hoodie you'll ever own. And I mean, it's like the old, if your dad had a hoodie from the 60s or 70s, that's what it felt like. They were made here in America, premium American cotton, every stitch, every zipper, every detail made in factories from the Carolinas to California with machines that we sent overseas decades ago. American Giant brought them back and retrained people, so you're making them on the machines that we didn't even have anymore.

You can follow along with all of this, including the chalkboard as part of the torch. It's free right now at glenbeck.com. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. I'm trying to explain what Donald Trump is doing, in my opinion, as I connect the dots here. And I believe I'm right on this. However, I'm not saying that it's safe or comfortable or even going to work, okay? Because I believe Trump is right, but he may be right too early. He might escalate the confrontation faster than the systems can adapt because I believe Donald Trump knows something. I don't know, you don't know.

I believe he knows. I believe he sees where this is headed. and it's probably headed there in 2027. And so he is accelerating on this, and he needs this continent to be, or this hemisphere to be controlled. Our shipping lanes need to be controlled, and everything we need needs to be in this hemisphere.

I believe that. But, you know, one miscalculation on one side or the other, and this whole thing gets really, really ugly. But you have to understand, Donald Trump is either crazy and hates America and loves war, there's no way he hates America. If you know anything about Donald Trump, he's been against war his whole life. Okay.

His whole life. So you can say he hates America and he just wants war and he's going to get us into a war. Or you can say, no, that doesn't make sense because I've watched him for 50 years. What he's acting like is a man who believes the world is dying anyway. The old world is dying. and that it's better to break it deliberately and inherit the wreckage, grab the wreckage, then inherit it by surprise and have to be fighting for the scraps. Okay?

History is not going to judge him by tone. I really think history is going to just ask, was this really inevitable when he started? Because nation after nation, throughout history, you can look through history, this happens over and over and over again. And only the disruptors are the ones that have a chance of saving their nation. nation. Just very few people are brave enough to do it. I wouldn't. I didn't. I did an interview, I think a couple of days ago. And I said, somebody said, you know, about the president and the moves he made. And I said, I don't think I'd be, right? I'd wet my pants, man. I could not be

president because he's making such bold decisions that affect the entire world. They have to be made. But I would just never have the confidence to make them. I mean, think of what he's facing right now. look at just Canada. Let's look at Canada for a second. Do we have the audio of Carney from Canada? And what Carney has been, Mark Carney, their prime minister, let me see if I can see it. Let's go cut seven first. Listen to this. Greenland. The future of Greenland is a decision for Greenland and for the kingdom of Denmark. We are NATO partners with Denmark. And so our full. partnership stands our obligations on article five, Article 2 of NATO stand, and we stand

floor, square behind those. Okay, stop. Now, let's look at this from a founder's point of view. Let's look at this from George Washington's point of view. Because last week, I was saying George Washington would never run into Greenland and take Greenland. And I believe that still today. I believe that today. But listen to what Carney just said.

He said we're full NATO partners and we are going to honor our NATO commitment. Washington said alliances are temporary. Do not entangle yourself in alliances that last forever because things change. And when they stop being good for you, you can't have that alliance. What is he saying? if Carney was looking at the world in with realize remember carney is a W.EF guy. He wants Europe to collapse and the West to collapse to fall into this kind of totalitarian world economic great reset. So that's his goal. He knows it's going to collapse.

Why would you be against the United States having Greenland? And I don't care if we own it. I don't want to take it over with the military. I don't mind if we buy it, whatever. But what did Donald Trump say just this weekend? He sent a message to the Danes and he said, I don't even understand why you guys own it. Because you sent some boats there 300 years ago.

I mean, we had boats there too. And then he said, you cannot be responsible for the security of the northern hemisphere. the Danes and the EU are not going to be the ones that prevent war or protect the northern hemisphere. It must be the United States. So we must have control of Greenland. Put the map up of Greenland that we had just a minute ago. If you just see this map and you look at the map of the world,

unlike how we always look at the map of the world, where Greenland kind of just rolls up up the top. Look at the Arctic Circle. Look at Canada and Greenland. Look where Russia and China are. Greenland sits right in the middle of all of that. Okay. So Carney says, we want the Danes to have Greenland.

That's fine. I mean, again, the way it happens is a different subject. we've been talking about the importance of Greenland since the 1950s. The United States has said we must control Greenland since the 1950s. Now between Russia and China, the world is changing and the NATO alliance is weak. And so he's saying we have to have that. Now, cut two from the Canadian Prime Minister. Cut eight, please. Listen to this. On the other hand, Canada is developing our oil and natural gas reserves, one of the world's largest to be the lowest risk. lowest cost, and lowest carbon. Last June, we exported our first LNG's shipment to Asia,

and we're scaling up quickly, making major investments in streamlining approvals. By 2030, Canada will produce 50 million tons of LNG each year, all of which will be destined for Asian markets. Okay, stop. Remember I told you about stress tests? Tariffs are stress tests. What he was doing, I firmly believe this, It makes everything he's doing make total sense.

He is stress testing the world. Who's actually an ally? When I put this tariff up on you, I'm going to treat everyone the same. We have said, how come we don't do this? Why are we doing this? They're allies. Why are we doing it? George Washington.

All allies, all alliances should be temporary. Don't expect the world not to change. Well, the world has changed. And so he's saying, okay, who's really with the West, who's really with this W-E-F, and who's with China? Okay. Well, we've already known Trudeau was not, I mean, he was cozying up to China, right? And that speech that he gave where he's like, I really respect China and the leadership of China. Okay.

All right. But he wasn't doing this kind of stuff. So Trump puts the stress test on them and says, okay, who are you? because Canada, without Canada, what do you have in the Western Hemisphere? You've got to have Canada. You've got to have Greenland. For the northwestern hemisphere, you have to have that. So he needs to know, is Canada really truly an ally?

If you're really truly an ally, I'm not saying you run to the United States with a tail between your legs, but you do not run to China. I would expect him to run to the W.E.F. Because that's who he is. He's a World Economic Forum globalist. He's a part of their founders parade. He is also a central bank. He came from the Bank of England, Central Bank.

So he's all that. I would not expect him to run a China. That has made him an ally of the communists. That's not going to sit well. It's just not going to sit well. And by the way, Canada, I mean, did you see what we found in Texas that was just announced in the last few days? The largest oil and gas reserves in the world have been found under Texas. So you can sell it to China, but I can guarantee you if the world splits, your ships, your gas lines will be disrupted because you will be feeding the enemy of the United States.

I don't like talking this way. I don't like talking to you about, you know, I think the president sees war and he's preparing for it. But he is. He is exactly. I would be saying the same thing if it was 1940 in America. And FDR was like, we're not going to war. We're not going to war.

We're not going to war. Really? Then why is he doing all this? Why is he doing all of these alliances? Why is he going into factories and saying you have to retool your factories? What is happening? It's exactly what Donald Trump is doing. War is coming, whether you like it or not, not caused by the United States.

Now, this does not include the war inside of the United States. And I think that's going to be year two of this administration. I hope. I hope. They've started it, but Pam Bondi is such a weak as... That's tomorrow show. But it... It has to be, I really believe once he gets Greenland, well, there's one other piece on the table, he's going to take out Cuba.

He's going to collapse Cuba. Because once he has Greenland, I don't know what he's going to do with Canada. Maybe Alberta will solve that for him. But he's got to get rid of the Russians in Cuba. He sets that one free and restores that one to freedom. You'll have everything you need for the Western Hemisphere and for this alliance to survive any storm

that is coming. That's what he's doing. Now, the other storm is what's happening inside America. And I don't know if you're paying attention to that one, but boy, that is not good. What's happening in Minnesota is not good. And what people don't realize is you're being played, you useful idiot, you are being played. These people have stolen. And when I say these people, I mean the people in our own government, not the Somalis, the people in our own government have bled our treasuries dry. They have been stealing money from you to either get rich on to bolster foreign adversaries or to foment revolution here in the United States. That's what all those NGOs have been doing. And you useful idiots are all walking around

acting like you are protecting the innocent. You're actually killing your own country. And maybe that's a plus to some people. But you're destroying your future. You're destroying the future of your children and your grandchildren. And you are sorely going to be mistaken. And I think that is the next stop on the Trump train once he finishes the hemisphere. But look out, gang.

He is going to finish the hemisphere. He is. He is, he said to me before he was elected this time, eight months before. Glenn, if I were you, you know what I would watch? I would watch for news on the Panama Canal. And I was talking to him at the time about all, you know, like Soros and all of this stuff. And I'm like, what the Panama? What? He's like, it's going to be very big news. And he tied it into, I got it, Glenn. I got it. I understand the Soros thing. I understand. I understand. Here's what you. you need to watch for, the Panama Canal. And I walked away from that meeting going, what the hell does that even mean? But we're going after Panama Canal. What? I hadn't done my homework to see that the Chinese controlled the Panama Canal. He has been on this for at least

two years. And I think, I think that break in 2020 gave him a chance to step back and go, what the hell is really happening in my country? You remember when you had that moment? And you were like, what the hell? And you really started doing your homework and you really started to learn. You might have found Woodrow Wilson. You're like, oh my gosh. That's exactly what happened to Donald Trump. And we haven't caught up to him yet. More in just a second. Let me tell you about our sponsor. Who's our sponsor this half hour? The Burn a Launcher.

irritant on contact. They just the, just the impact, not the tear gas that's with it, just the impact. They offer, they've offered people money to take three shots. They've never gotten anybody to take a third shot. They've all that. I think it's, I think maybe it's two shots, but I think, let's just be safe, say three shots. They've taken two and I can't take anymore.

But there's money on the other side. side if you just take one more. No, I won't do it. Okay. So just the impact is bad. Now you put tear gas with that. You are buying yourself time.

Economic Forum, which is one world order, a new world order. That's a global, fascistic, corporatist, you know, managed state, Woodrow Wilson's dream. Okay. Then there is the China-Russia plan, and that's a bipolar world, maybe eventually unipolar. It would be run by China, but it's a new world order run by China and Russia. Then there's the Islamic world order. The Islamic world order is one world order, theocracy. I left out the communists and the radicals because they're just useful idiots. There's not going to be a communist world order. It's just not going to happen unless they join with a Chinese.

And then there's Trumps, which is a unipolar world that preserves Western culture led by the U.S. in the entire Western Hemisphere. but every other country makes their own decisions on their own. Those are the choices that we're up against. And one of those choices is there's no standing here anymore. You're not going to preserve what we've always had. Those are your choices. Which one do you want?

Trump is making it very clear which one he's going for. And he's saying to the rest of the world, join us because we're not standing still. Most people carry tension in their backs without even realizing it. Hours at a desk, long commutes, you know, looking down at a phone. It builds up slowly until one day you stand up and you realize, out, out, out, out, everything hurts. And you assume it's just part of getting older, but it doesn't have to be that way. Jurp makes those wheel-style back rollers that target the muscles along the spine, the ones that are responsible for all of the tension, the stiffness and the pain. I can tell you, I get back on one of these.

It's amazing how quickly your back responds when you finally give the muscles the movement that they need. It's a design that is very simple but brilliant, a groove right down the middle so you're not rolling on your spine, just the muscle.

Well, the award for the most irrelevant human being on the planet has got to go to Don Lemon this weekend, who is, it's sad and pathetic what he's doing, but he was in Minnesota, following protesters into a church. This is getting a little scary what's going on. This hour, I'm going to take you through Peter Swizer's new book called The Invisible Coup.

And it is, I think it's one of the most important books that you can pick up and read today. You will learn more in the first two chapters than you may have ever known about immigration. And it is exactly what is happening and what is coming. And you will understand Minnesota and the riots and who's behind all of that. Really important. We're going to start with proof of concept with Peter here in just a second. But first, let me tell you about our sponsor. I am really happy to say that Mercury 1 is one of our sponsors.

You've heard me talk about Mercury One's efforts plenty of times. This is a charity that I started, but I want to take you behind the scenes. I founded Mercury One 2011, and the idea was to restore the human spirit to be able to put you back in control of your own community. And a huge part of that is helping our neighbors and needs as Christ's commands independent of the government. We are the first responders. And over the years, we have learned it's not just about being there first. It's also about staying there until the end, after the cameras leave, when the real rebuilding begins. After the historic floods devastated Texas and Hill Country, we helped one young widow cover funeral cost.

We provide shelter. We served 25,000 hot meals. We have rebuilt 70-plus homes. We're still there. Over a year after Helene, we're still in Western North Carolina rebuilding over 300 homes there. We're drilling wells. We're restoring churches like Trinity Baptist in Asheville. None of this happens because of government grants. All of this is possible because of you, because you believe in helping your neighbor. Would you support our maximum impact fund, especially our loyal society of monthly partners who enable us to respond immediately wherever we're needed? I'd like to invite you to join becoming a monthly partner with just $15 a month. Just visit mercury one.org.

Pure1.org. Join us and help restore the human spirit. Peter Swiser, welcome to the program. I have, I have heard, read many of your books. We've had you on for all of them. I think, Peter, this is the most important book you have written yet. Well, thank you, Glenn. We have worked together for a long time. That means a lot to me. Thank you. It's one of those issues that we've talked a lot about in general, which is immigration, but the book is really about weaponized immigration. And, you know, it's important we've had the conversations about how immigration affects the economy, how it affects our culture. But when we realize this is actually something that's being wielded against us by countries

like China, but also Mexico with a real agenda behind it, an agenda, by the way, that I quote them as explaining in the book, I think it puts the immigration debate in a whole different level. I have to tell you, I learned more in the first two chapters about Mexico that horrified me. Because I've always felt good about Mexico. You know, they have problems with the drugs and I felt bad for it. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. They are not, uh, they're not doing us any favors at all.

And we'll get into that here in a second. Can we start with chapter one? And if you don't mind, Peter, I may have to ask you to come over and join me tomorrow as well because I don't know if we're going to get past the first two chapters. There's so much meat in here. Sure. In chapter one is proof of concept. And it starts with Jimmy Carter and Fidel Castro. And I don't recall any of this.

Can you take us through that? Yeah. This is back in 1980, the Mario Boatlift. And a lot of people that were around will remember that the United States was flooded with Cuban refugees. And Jimmy Carter, when this first started developing, said, you know, we're a compassionate a country, which is true, we're going to welcome them with open arms. And Chidel Castro told his top AIDS, well, we're going to fill their arms with excrement. He used a different word. And this was really

the first modern example of weaponized immigration, because what Fidel Castro recognized was we can actually attack the United States by sending them criminals, people that are mentally ill, but also people that are going to set up criminal networks, drug networks, inside the United States. And so what we thought was a sort of random humanitarian event was actually a targeted attack. And I quote from a government panel that later looked at the Mario Boat Lift and concluded that it was probably the third most lethal foreign attack on the United States. Besides Pearl Harbor and 9-11, the Mario Boat Lift was probably the third most lethal. attack. And the thing that's so genius about what Castro did is, you know, Pearl Harbor in 9-11, you attack us what happens. We strike you back harder than you hit us. That's the American way.

If it's a humanitarian attack through immigration, who do you attack? Who do you launch the military again? So it's genius. And this became a template for a lot of modern Latin American leaders. In the summer of 1980, when this was unfolding, Fidel Castro goes to Nicaragua to meet with San Dena's leaders, and there's a young revolutionary there named Lula, who later today is the president of Brazil. And he sets up an entity called the Sao Paulo Forum with Fidel Castro, which includes progressive leaders from across Latin America and in the United States, the Democratic Socialists of America, which is Bernie Sanders and AOC's group.

And the Sao Paulo Forum has weaponized immigration against us today. And that includes the Marina Party of Mexico and Petro, the leader of Colombia, and a whole host of other countries who have adopted this as their strategy to defeat the United States. Okay, so lay that out more carefully. So people understand you're not just making that statement. this is a very well-organized, well-financed and well-executed plan that is out in the open. Just none of us have ever seen it or heard of it. Yeah, yeah.

And look, again, this is not Peter Schweitzer asserting this. I mean, there are quotes throughout the book from leaders explaining what's going on. You mentioned Mexico. And I always thought of Mexico in the context of, okay, you've got kind of this haploid. government and it's corrupt and they're kind of glad for mass migration because now they don't have to feed their own people. The reality is in their own words, they view immigration very differently. Glenn, this is from a government report. This is a report written by one of President Scheinbaum's top AIDS in December of 2024. It's saying, hang on just a second. Shinebom in case you

don't know, is the president of Mexico. This is 2024, president of Mexico. Go ahead. Yeah. We already know that the Mexican population in the United States reaches 39.9 million. We Mexicans are reclaiming our territory. That's from December of 2024. Here's a powerful senator who's also a member of the Marina Party who sits on the National Defense Committee, which is the most powerful committee in the Mexican Senate. Quote, we Mexicans are in our territories, California, Nevada, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Kansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Wyoming, we're going to take back the territory that was stolen from us. And, you know, Glenn, you hear these quotes and you think, okay, well, maybe this is just bravado. But as I point out in the book, they have actually created a network and infrastructure inside the United States. And this infrastructure, this includes Mexican government officials inside the United States who are organizing violent protests like those that hit Los Angeles, those that are in Minneapolis, and they are actively participating in our politics. They are working to elect Democrats

who are sympathetic, a foreign government, to elect Democrats who are sympathetic to them on immigration and working to defeat President Trump through Mexican consulates that are across the United States. Peter, I have to ask you a question. It is, it's, when I first started talking about George Soros, I just thought I had discovered something new and I hadn't. Just there were very few people that were dumb enough to take him on. I didn't know the rules. You don't take on George Soros.

You know what I mean? So I exposed all this stuff and I, because I thought it was new. This is so, it is so clear. Your sources are so clear. The names of. everyone who says it, who's on the committees, who's using the money, who's here in America, who's overseas, all of it is so clear and clearly laid out. Why don't we know about any of this until now? Why did it take you to come out and put this all together? Well, a great,

question, Glenn. And you're right. I mean, you were really one of the first people to publicly take on Soros. And God bless you for doing that. I think it's a couple of things. I think first of all, Mexico has a reputation for being kind of a sleepy corrupt government and people don't take them seriously. I think we should. Mexico, think about this for a second, Glenn. Mexico has 53 consulates in the United States.

53. In contrast, the two other countries with the most are China and the United Kingdom with six and seven. So they have this vast network in the United States. And I think that, you know, they have masked what they're doing quite effectively. People that are aware of it that are, you know, some of these NGOs, you mentioned Soros, their NGOs funded by Bill Gates and others who talk about the fact that for them, and again, these are their words, for them, immigration is about transforming the United States. This is a quote from 2023 that I think lays out the fact that they want this to be silent. Again, this is from 2023, the head of the Mexican News Agency, which is like their sort of

associated press, he says, quote, we are quietly carrying out the reconquest of our territories in the U.S. taken from us in 1848. The reconquest of the Aztec territory is silent, and the day that the gringoes realize this, their diabolical fundamentalism will become macabra. In other words, we need to keep this quiet. We don't want to talk. about it publicly because when the gringoes as he says find out they're going to be really really angry about it so we need to recognize what's going on have an honest conversation about it there are dozens of these quotes in the book from Mexican officials and we go through and name the Mexican government

officials who are at the center of the LA riots last year who are manipulating our politics okay so I want you to go through I mean, I cannot urge you. This is, and you know me, I will talk highly about books that I really like and I think are important. This book is probably the most important book you can read. I think in the last five or six years, there is so much information here. I think this, I mean, this is a nation's work, honestly. This, I hope, is with the president and his people and at the DOJ, if they were useful at all.

but this is the most important book you can read. It's called The Invisible Coup by Peter Swiser. Peter has been on, if you know, if you've been listening to me for a long time, he is a friend, he has been on the program over and over again. He's done a lot of great stuff. This is the most important book. You want to understand what we're really up against

and who our enemies really are. Enough of this Mamby, Pambi, oh, well, we just have to be nice to the rest of the world. No, we will be nice to the rest of the world. of the world if they're not trying to destroy us. And I want Peter to come back and take us through a lot of these statements from, you know, like he just did with Shinebomb, from the government of Mexico, high-ranking officials that are in charge, the media as well, and also all the NGOs, who is funding it? What are they doing? He's going to do that in 60 seconds. First,

let me tell you about Simply Safe. One of the strangest things about modern lives, is how much we leave unattended. We leave the house. We just assume everything's going to be fine in our absence. SimplySafe is all about making sure of it. It's designed to stand watch when you can't. Doors, windows, motion, cameras, all of them working together so your home isn't just locked. It's practically aware. What I like about SimplySafe, it doesn't ask you to change your life. You set it up yourself. It decides, you decide what makes sense for it and for your space. And after that, it quietly does the job in the background until it needs to do. speak up. And if something goes wrong, boy, it speaks up. Professional monitoring is there 24-7 to

respond immediately. Not after the fact. They have cameras. They within seconds are on your camera looking at it, seeing if it's a real break-in. They immediately then call police. That is the key. Most places, the police don't come just with a burglar alarm because they think it's a false alarm. Simply safe. It calls them immediately said, this is not a false alarm. You need to get there now. And they have the video of all of it. You get $50 off any new citizens. system this month only. So go to simplysafe.com slash peck. That's simplysafe.com slash beck. There is no safe like simply safe. 10 seconds. Station ID. All right. So Peter, take me through, take me through the most incriminating comments from the people in Mexico and from the NGOs to show us,

this is not just a few people saying this. This is not just some, this is not just an AOC. This is coordinated at the highest levels? Yeah, there are numerous quotes from the Mexican government. I can take you through in addition to the ones that I just mentioned. And the key thing to understand here, Glenn, is that this is not a recent phenomenon. This is something that they have been saying and doing for decades. And one of the things that Shinebaum has done since she's become president is she has started playing two songs at every official event in Mexico.

One of them is the migrant hymn, which is something that she had commissioned. And the lyrics to that song are about how migrants that come to the United States don't just go there to work. They go there to actually expand the flag of Mexico to include the United States. May I give you... Let me give you some of the lyrics. And through my birth, although my birth certificate says American, I'm pure Mexican. We change places, but not flags.

I carry green, white, and red in my veins. Like the eagle, we fly without borders. We break through the fence that separates lands. Wow. She had that commissioned? Yes, she had that commissioned and written, and she plays that at a lot of her official events. The other song that she plays at a lot of official events, and again, this is all sourced, and this is all from Mexican sources, is a song called We Are More American. And in this song, it's lyrics, they go on to describe how California, Texas, Arizona, and Wyoming were stolen from Mexico by the United States, and that the land was free until the gringoes arrived.

And then the refrain says, we, meaning Mexicans, are more American than all of the United States. the gringoes. Indians from two continents mixed with Spanish. We are more American than the son of an Anglo-Saxon. There's a very strong ethnic component to this. And again, I can imagine, Peter, can you imagine if Donald Trump had commissioned a song to be sung that had anything like that in reverse? What people would say? Meanwhile, the left has been saying this is not an invasion. This is not an invasion. And people believe that it's not an invasion because they know that, you know, people are struggling to get, but the president of Mexico is commissioning these songs and playing them at her rallies. That's an invasion. That's right. And by the

way, those songs are also now being played at these protest rallies inside the United States. So when you see Mexican flags being waved in Los Angeles or in the Twin Cities right now, that's not a coincidence. We know that the flag that was waived in Los Angeles was given to that motorcycle rider. You remember that iconic picture. That flag was given to him by the Mexican consulate, and they play these songs in the United States, saying, we are more American than the gringoes. This is our land. Let me just read a quote from the journal. Hang on. Ricky, can you get Matt to get those two songs, have them translated, and release them with the translation. So just put the translation on the screen. But those songs have got to be recorded someplace and see if we can have that for tomorrow. Thank you. All right. Go ahead, Peter. We've only got about 90 seconds. Go ahead. Yeah. So this is a journalist, Antonio Friedel Zapata, in 2023. This is a Mexican journalist. He says, when he talks to his friend,

and colleagues in Mexico, they confidently explain we are taking it back, meaning the American Southwest. So what we, this is him, quote, so what we are witnessing with this massive legal or illegal immigration of Hispanics, mainly Mexicans, it is a silent, persistent reconquest of vast territories in the U.S. American Southwest, with a strong Mexican population, a reconquest that will have important geopolitical consequences for the future of the United States. Again, this is not me saying it. This is not some crazy lunatics saying it. These are government officials, respected journalists and pillars of society in Mexico. And Glenn, the protests in Los Angeles last

year, I named the Mexican officials that live in the United States. Think about this. There are senior Mexican government officials who live inside the United States. who were fanning the flames, organizing these protests, and cheering them on. And I quote them extensively in the book. All right. So we're going to have you quote them, name them by name, and I want to encourage you. This is such an important book. It's called The Invisible Coup by Peter Switzer.

It's Available Today. Get it now. The Invisible Coo. More with Peter. Wait until you hear. We have more. We have Islam. We have China. He has it all. We're getting more into what happens.

coup. It is out in bookstores tomorrow. It is available online. Right now, you can get it. Be delivered to you tomorrow by Peter Schweitzer, The Invisible Coup. I think, you know, Peter has been a longtime friend of mine and a writer and a journalist worked for the Wall Street Journal, the Times, the Post, and everything else. And he's always taken on both sides very fairly. He's not used, usually now by the Times or anybody else because, you know, he's, he's done books on, you know, the Clinton cash, but he's also done it on George Bush and, you know, he's written stuff on everybody, everybody, and very, very buttoned up. And this is the most important book I think he's ever written because as I read this, even what I was saying today on radio and hour one about

the president and what his plan is for the Western Hemisphere and why he's moving the way he's moving right now, this has to be taken into consideration because this is what's here in our own country. And Peter, take us to Los Angeles and that first ice, you know, pushback in Los Angeles. Who was funding it? How did it happen? Who was in charge of it? Well, the first thing, Glenn, everybody needs to realize, and this will be kind of shocking to people, is that Mexico actually has elected Mexican officials that sit in the Mexican parliament that live, in the United States and represent Mexicans inside the United States in the Mexican Parliament. So this is like a complete, yes, there is, and I'm going to quote from a couple of them.

There are senators, Mexican senators that sit in the Mexican Senate that deliberate and determine Mexican policy who live full-time inside the United States and represent Mexicans living in our country, which is a massive intrusion into. our sovereignty. There's a senator. How did we ever allow that to happen? It just happened. They did it. And nobody said anything about it. These are the migrant senators and the migrant members of the chambers of deputy. And there's a, there's a Senator Ruiz, for example, she lives in Arizona. She actually supports legislation to make California the 33rd state of Mexico, which I guess some people would say let them, let them have it.

But this is how they're thinking. But to get to those riots in Los Angeles, let me quote from a couple of elected officials. One of them is his name is Alejandro Robles. He sits in the Mexican parliament. He's also the head of the International Committee for Morena, the ruling party of Mexico. But he lives in California outside of Los Angeles. And he describes his purpose in the United States. He travels across the United States to, in his words, our mission is to organize the militancy inside the United States.

So he's met with, for example, people at the People's Forum in New York, which of course has antitha ties. And he describes how he goes from across the country to organize and meet with militants. On another occasion, he says that the migrants in the United States and the people working with the like him, are, quote, in the front line on the battle of civil resistance in the United States. That's how he defines his purpose. Let me quote another individual. And this is, well, let me add one more thing about Robles, which is very interesting. Robles is particularly angered at immigrants from Latin America, from Mexico, that come into the

United States and adopt American values and quote-unquote Americanized or try to to blend in. He calls them, quote, unquote, traitors to Mexico, and he says that Shinebaum agrees with him. He says they don't agree with being Mexican. They would prefer always to be an imperialist colony or part of the United States. These are the people that are involved in the United States and activities. I'll quote, another congressman who lives in Los Angeles, who is his Congressman Polanco, lives inside Los Angeles. During the Los Angeles riots, there are videos that he posted on social media of Hispanic cops in Los Angeles being harassed for doing their jobs. And people are shouting that they're being disloyal to their ethnic heritage. And he seems to be participating in this. And he

writes on social media, that's how it goes, our race for our race. He then goes on to like those that are blocking traffic in Los Angeles and attacking the police to Aztec warriors. And he again says, for our race. And then he goes on to say that we declare ourselves in permanent resistance. These are Mexican government officials inside the United States who are weaponizing immigration. So this is why we saw Mexican flags everywhere and no American flags, because this is part of the plan. Yep. Do you, have you tracked down the funding of all of this? We've tracked down some of the funding, and there are NGOs that got funded by the, you know, elements of the Aribela network, et cetera.

And we know that the consular officials have provided material support to these operations. So, you know, for the life of you, Glenn, I don't understand why we allow, yeah, Exactly. Why we allow Mexico to have 53 consulates in the United States when China and Great Britain have six or seven. It makes completely no sense. And they politicized it. Let me, because you have so much more in your book. But, you know, I'm trying to figure out ways to explain what Donald Trump is doing with Venezuela, with Greenland, even with the Middle East. He is restructuring the world. and he is building a Western hemisphere that is safe for the United States. That's why he went after Panama. That's why he was going after Venezuela. He's not done there.

And I think he's going to, I think he's going to try to flip Cuba as well. But Mexico is going to have to be on this list, which is, I mean, I mean, that's, that's really, really bad. Are you seeing any movement from this administration just to at least get the NGOs and to get some of these organizations out of the United States? Yeah, I think we are seeing movement there. I'm encouraged it. I wish it was happening quicker. But here's the reality. The reality is if you are a NGO and you are funding radical groups, it gets very difficult for the GOJ to prosecute. What changes that is if you are involved with a foreign government or you are involved with a foreign drug cartel or terrorist organization.

And what we saw in Venezuela, I think, is the first step in what's going to become a pattern. I think Mexico is the next area where the administration is going to be focusing attention. And what Trump has asked Shinebom to do is allow for us to conduct operations against drug cartels in Mexico. Shine bomb's not going to do that for a couple. What's the role of the cartels? Because I always thought the cartels played a huge role. but this seems very ideological as well.

It is. It's ideological and the cartels have joined forces with the progressives in Latin America. So the Sao Paulo Forum, we were talking about earlier. There's an enormous amount of research I cited in the book from very, very credible sources that the South Palo Forum has largely been funded by the drug cartels. Because we know a couple of things about the drug cartels. Number one, they love open borders. They make more money off of human.

smuggling than they do off of selling drugs. The second thing we know is that the drug cartels want the war on drugs, meaning military operations conducted against them in Latin America to end. Now, here's where it gets particularly dicey inside the United States. There is an organization called Progressive International that was founded by Bernie Sanders in 2018. AOC, Greg Zasar, the congressmen, others are active in this organization. As we point out in the book, Progressive International has numerous advisors that are named in the book who are tried to the drug cartels. And what Progressive International is pushing are two issues that the drug cartels really want advanced. Number one, open borders, and number two, and end to military operations against the drug cartels in Latin America. AOC,

other members of Congress have actually introduced legislation. That's their priority to end military operations against the drug cartels. We know who favors that. That is the drug cartels. And we know that there are individuals tied with this organization, Progressive International, that are linked to those drug networks. Any idea of the links to anything that's going on in Minnesota now? I know DSA is now, they said, over the weekend, they're training a thousand people for action in places like Minneapolis or New York. You know, the DSA has deep roots in South America and south of our border. Any connections at all to what's happening in Minnesota? Yes, absolutely. So we know that Mexico has a consulate in the Twin Cities and the political

actions they've engaged in elsewhere in the United States. It would certainly fit that pattern. Democratic Socialists of America, I think, is a particularly troubling organization, not just because of their ideas, but because of their ties. They are linked to the South Powell Forum. They are members. They participate in the South Powell Forum, which again, numerous evidence that that organization is largely funded by the drug cartels. The Democratic Socialists of America have started pushing of the similar agendas that we see. So we have to recognize that what's happening is a confluence of entities that don't seem to have potentially a lot in common are actually working in common because they have a common cause. And they recognize that the way that you can subvert and undermine the United States most effectively is by importing the revolution. And I actually quote people as saying that in the book, people that are part of this movement. And that's what we're seeing.

So we expect to see more of this, not just in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, elsewhere. And this is the reason that the Democratic Party is fighting so hard against deportations because they see this as a key constituency for their political viability. That is crazy. Peter, thank you so much. We'll talk again tomorrow. I'm going to have Peter come back tomorrow and do part two of this. It's the invisible coup by Peter Swicer.

out officially tomorrow. You can you can buy it online right now. It is, I think the most important book that he has done. I couldn't recommend this book higher. You really want to understand what we are up against in America, what we are really facing the invisible coup by Peter Swizer. We'll continue with him more tomorrow. Thank you, Peter. First, let me tell you about American financing. Many of us are carrying things we don't actually need to be carrying around anymore. You know, old commitments, old decision, financial choices that don't make sense anymore, you know. We got to be living now. And the problem is some things don't just announce themselves.

We're going to tell you what happened in Iran here in just a few minutes. also going to take you to Minneapolis. Harmeet Dylan is going to be joining us from the DOJ on the FACE Act. Can you give me the exact, Stu, do you happen to have it, the exact definition of the FACE Act? Yeah, because we think about it as related to abortion clinics, right? And that is part one, but part two of the same law says you are prohibited from interfering with any person,

lawfully exercising or seeking to exercise the First Amendment right of religious freedom at a place of religious worship. So like specifically designed to stop exactly what we saw this weekend. So this mob that came in during a service and shut this service down and everybody left is really, really disturbing, really disturbing and exactly the face act. Albert Mueller tweeted, I normally don't post social media on Lord's Day, but an unspeakably evil intrusion of a leftist mob into a Christian worship service. today in Minneapolis must be called out for what it is. Federal authorities should be fast and effective in response. I hope they are. Let me go. Don Lemon was there, and he was talking, you know, talking down to the pastor because

he's so Christ like himself. Listen to this interview. What do you think of this? I mean, this is unacceptable. It's shameful. It's shameful to interrupt a public gathering of Christians in worship. But there were folks. That's what.

I have to take care of my. flock. Listen, we live in, there's a constitution in the First Amendment to freedom of speech and freedom to assemble and protest. We're here to worship. We're here to worship Jesus because that's the hope of these cities. That's the hope of the world is Jesus Christ. I want to be very respectful.

Please don't push me, though. We're here. We're here to worship Jesus. That's why we're here. That's why we're here. That's what we're about. What do you think Jesus would be understanding and love these boats? We're about spraying the love of Jesus.

But did you try to talk to them as a Christian? No one is willing to talk. Okay. I have to take care of my church and my family. Don Lemon is just so irrelevant and just such, I mean, an IQ of, I think of about a shoebox. I mean, first of all, you don't even understand the First Amendment. The First Amendment protects the people in the church from the state and from mobs. That's what the First Amendment is. So you can go practice that.

You can have freedom of speech outside the church. I mean, people who are protesting for sanctuary, they don't even know. understand sanctuary. I mean, it's really ridiculous. But Armie Dillon's going to be with us in a few minutes. She is part of the civil rights. I mean, she leads the Civil Rights Division at the DOJ. This is a division that is

kicking ass and taking names, and everybody should know that. But it's led by Armeet Dillon, and she's going to be joining us, and I want to ask her about the FACE Act and what's going on in Minneapolis, and what's going to happen to those protesters? We'll have more in just a minute. Also, the latest on Iran. Huge news happened

berna.com slash glen. Hello, America. Hope is a very, very powerful thing. And a giant dose of hope was administered to the entire population of Iran last night. I'm shocked that more people are not talking about it because something remarkable happened last night. We'll tell you about it. And Harmeet Dillon at the DOJ to talk about the Face Act and what is going to happen to the protesters in Minnesota. How are we going to start putting these protests down? Is the administration going to begin to put any of this down?

And the FACE Act for all of those who went into that church, are they going to arrest any of them? We'll talk to her here in just a few minutes. Stand by. First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. There are two ways to spend money in this world. You can spend it carelessly or you can spend it deliberately. Most of us do it with a mix of both, you know what I mean, without really noticing which is which sometimes. Your cell phone service is a great example.

It's so routine, you automatically do it, never occurs to you that, you know, where's my money actually going after it leaves my account? The answer is sometimes really bad places. Patriot Mobile exists because that question matters. They provide reliable nationwide cell service on the same national major networks using the ones that you're already using. But they've made a conscious decision about what their business would support. Christian American principles.

Instead of funding causes their customers don't believe in, they support faith and family and freedom. what makes the decision really, really easy. You don't have to give up anything, except maybe less money every month. You get the same phone, same number, same coverage, same features. The only thing that really changes is the direction that your money goes after you pay the bill. So go to Patriotmobile.com and start supporting the people who support you and your values.

So last night Last night there was a counter revolution And it has been going on for a while Trying to put things right in Iran Whether it's going to work or not I don't know but it is growing And last night for just 10 minutes And then I think it came back and they did it again a second time

But it was only a few minutes But it was enough to send shockwaves All the way through everywhere in Iran if you were watching TV last night anywhere in Iran, the voice that is spoken with authority for 40 years, the Islamic state was gone. And the screen changed. And it wasn't the chaos in the streets or the explosion.

Instead, it was something very, very dangerous to this Islamic regime, and that is a memory. a message appeared from the son of the man that they erased from history. The Shah didn't exist. What are you talking about? And he came on, he wasn't speaking of revenge. He spoke to Persians. He spoke of Iran. He spoke of a country older than this regime of a people who were never meant to live on their knees. It was a direct call to Iranians to keep resisting the regime.

Now, this is the crown prince. And he urged last night, the Iranians. people to continue their fight against the Islamic Republic, even amidst the brutal crackdown that has killed thousands. Some people say 5,000. Some people say as many as 20,000. We don't know for sure. But he went on to say, quote, the Iranian people have the right to determine their own future. Help is on the way. Can you imagine being oppressed thinking which way are you going to go? Whether you are thinking about joining the street and you want freedom, but you have to haven't been brave enough to do it, and then you hear that, help is on the way. Or if you're a police officer and you have been going back and forth going, I don't want to fire on my own people,

but I am terrified of this regime because they're going to crack down, which side am I on? And you hear that. Then he said, to the military, you are the national army of Iran, not Islam. You must protect your fellow citizens and join the people. And he emphasized the Islam. He emphasized the Islamic Republic is going to fall. He said, it's not a matter of if, but when, and when it does, I will return to Iran. That was, I mean, nobody's ever seen anything like that. And it was on every channel. And it wasn't, you know, in the old days when revolutionaries came on, they would storm the radio stations or they storm the television stations and they would take over.

That's not what happened. It was almost as if it was hacked, but it wasn't hacked. They don't know how it was done yet. The word last night was they think someone on the inside of this network that's running all of the TV stations that they actually hijacked it themselves from the inside, then stopped, got away with it, and then did it again about an hour later. You get this kind of stuff? I mean, that's a crack in the one thing that tyrants have to control to survive. If they lose control of one thing, they're out, and that one thing is story, every authoritarian system learns the same lesson. Guns matter, yes, but the narrative and the story matters more.

You can lose battles in the street, but if you lose the television, if you lose the illusion of permanence, if people see, wow, wait a minute, 40 years, that's never happened. Now it's happening now. Fear begins to evaporate. They start to say, these people are, they're paper tigers. And fear is a regime's oxygen. They must have fear. So it's, I mean, it's a, it's a really big deal. It's a really big deal. And what matters is not how long it played. It's who saw it. And not the protesters. They were out on the streets. They already know the regime is hollow. But who else saw it? It was the clerk at the ministry. It was the colonel watching it home. It was the technician at the power station. It was a man with a uniform who has a family and a calendar and is quietly asking himself, how does this end? I mean,

how many more days can this go on? Which side am I going to be on when it comes down to it? That's why it matters. Because all of the people in the regime and on the edges of the regime. They saw it. And history tells us something really, really important. Revolutions don't succeed when crowds get louder. They succeed when institutions hesitate. And that's exactly what last night was designed to test. Hesitate. Did they take the stations off the air? They didn't. They hesitated. Now, optimism has to be earned. It can't be declared. But, I mean, I heard this and I was pretty optimistic last night. don't know if it's going to mean anything, but I pray it does. The regime is going to respond

most likely. I mean, the rumors are that now people in the guard, not the Islamic Guard, but the actual army that they are starting, colonels are starting to say, I'm not going to fight the people anymore. If that continues to happen, if those dominoes begin to fall, that regime is over. In the meantime, you're going to probably see tighter controls, harsher arrests, louder propaganda, quicker trials. You should expect more brutality, but I don't think anybody's going to surrender at this point. But no collapsing regime ever goes quietly.

They go kicking and screaming and lying all the way out. So the question is not if the people are brave enough, because we've already seen they are. Can you imagine, I was thinking about this this morning? I was brushing my teeth and I was thinking about the people in Iran, and I thought, they don't have guns. They don't have anything. They don't have anything that we have.

have. They don't have rights. They don't have guns. They don't have attorneys that are going to come and get them out of jail. They don't have any NGOs to help them out. They are protesting in the street. If they're arrested, they could very likely be hung the very next day. And they're walking out with no arms. Gosh, America, do we have that? Do we have that kind of commitment? I mean, look at the people in Minneapolis. They're walking out with AK-40. and they're walking out also with violence on their mind. This is not Martin Luther King.

This is the furthest thing from Martin Luther King. So the question remains now, are the strikes going to spread? Will the security forces fracture in the next couple of days? Will the system begin choosing self-preservation over obedience? That's the hinge here of history. And if Iran were to emerge on the other side as a free nation, a representative nation aligned with the West, the impact is going to be seismic.

You won't think of this. I said in hour number one today, and it's so important, if you want to understand what's happening, what the hell is happening with Greenland? What is happening with our allies? What's happening with Canada? What is Donald Trump doing?

You want to understand that. I connected all the dots today, and it is so important for you to understand, because if you don't get it now, nobody's really explaining it to you. And if you don't get it now, I don't know if you're going to get it, and you can be very, very lost on this. But one of the things I was talking about is what if the peace treaties are not necessarily just about peace?

What if it's about putting out fires that allow Trump to concentrate on the things that he has to concentrate on? What has been in our biggest distraction over the last 40 years? It's always the Middle East. We're always in the Middle East. Why? Well, part of it is because of Iran. So he puts a peace treaty together where it's not us at the head of the table. He's like, no, you guys all get together.

You put it. I mean, we'll help you, but you're guys are doing it. You're going to pay for it. And you're going to run it yourself. And he's done it. The only thing left is Iran. If you take Iran out of that, you might have an America that can turn away from the Middle East for a while and just go, I'm not paying any attention to that.

They can handle it. Because if Iran falls, this is not a regional event. This is 1980. This is something that will break the backbone of a terror network that stretches across the Middle East and throughout the world. And it will sever the critical artery that connects China and Russia and North Korea. And it will redraw the strategic map without a single American boot on the ground. My gosh, how great is this? This is Eastern Europe throwing off Soviet rule.

This is Spain after Franco. Portugal after decades of dictatorship. This is when a country, and listen to this, this is when a country remembers who it was before it was afraid. America, you need to hear that again. This is what it looks like when a country remembers who it was before it was afraid. But I have no idea, you know, caution matters here.

revolutions don't fail only from repression. They fail from what comes next. And I don't know what comes next. I don't know if everybody's behind the Shah. Unity matters. Clear transition matters. Preventing vengeance from replacing justice really matters. Last night's lesson is simple and it is profound for just a few minutes.

The regime did not speak for the people of Iran. That hasn't happened in over 40 years. and once people see that even if it's just for 10 minutes, they will never quite forget it. And it doesn't necessarily matter what happens next because history doesn't move in straight lines, but it does move towards the truth when fear breaks. And something broke just a little on Iranian television last night, and that truly matters. More in a minute. Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

Real estate agents I trust. I mean, one of the few things. a few areas of life where confidence is misplaced is with real estate agents because you don't know. I mean, right? The process looks simple from the outside. You see the listings. You see the prices. You assume the rest of the work is just paperwork. The truth is most of the damage in real estate happens quietly. Bad price here, misnegotiation there, a bad real estate agent, a decision that feels small in the moment and then it ends up costing you a ton years later. That's why real estate agents, I trust, exists. And I started it because this isn't about finding.

an agent. This is about finding the right agent. People who know their local markets, know how to read conditions as they actually are and know how to protect you when the deal gets really, really complex. Even in the middle of a downhousing market, you know, the real estate agents that we have at real estate agents I trust just had their best year ever. And they did that two years in a row. How is that happening? Because everybody's telling you you can't sell houses, you can't buy houses. No, no, no. The right real estate agent knows how to get it done. Real estate agents, I trust.com. We'll show you how to sell or buy a home even in this tough market. The name says it all. It's real estate agents.itrust.com. 10 seconds. Station item. The Ayatollah's on now calling Trump

a criminal today. Well, it takes one to no one. But I just, I thought I would respond for the White House. So Stu is with us. Ricky. Our chief of content is also with us. Well, have I missed anything before we get to Minnesota, have I missed anything that we have to sweep up here? No, everything you do is perfect. Shut up. Shut up. See, Stu, that's how it's done. Yeah.

That's what you need. That's definitely what you need. I think I'm curious a little bit more maybe about your idea Don Lemon being, you know, charged in this whole many... Oh, he's not going to be charged. He shouldn't be charged.

All the people in the church should be charged. He's a journalist. He went in to cover it. Well, that's what he'll say. So I don't think. Do we, do we believe that? I'm going to give the press, and it kills me to call him a member of the press. But I'm going to give the press the benefit of the doubt on coverage.

I don't think he would have been in there without them. Now, if he was orchestrating or he was part of this, that's one thing. But if he was just following them in and covering it, that's a journalist job. Everybody else in there should be charged with the Face Act. But I want to give somebody who is reporting the news a very wide berth. Even though I disagree with he was reporting the news, he was, I mean, it was propaganda. What do you think about the governor's strategy to put the Minnesota National Guard in yellow vests? Oh, that's really easy.

Wait a minute. So Tim Walts is saying we're going to put the National Guard in yellow vests. Now, why would you do that? because you're telling the people of Minnesota, don't attack these guys, they're not ice. So you are saying, by saying don't attack these guys, because they're in the yellow vest, you are indeed saying attack the guys

that are not wearing the yellow vests. If I were the president, I would put every ice agent in a yellow vest. And if they change it to orange tomorrow, I would have them in orange. And when they would say, you can't do that, what are you doing? you're going to get the ICE agents killed or you're going to get National Guard.

This is what he'd say. You're putting them in yellow vest. You're going to get them killed. Oh, wait a minute. Hang on just a second. So you're admitting that there are people who are trying to kill ICE members. And by me dressing them up as National Guard, now you're saying I'm going to get some National Guard people killed. Really?

Huh. Sounds to me, Tim, like you're the one setting everybody up. It really is. I can't wait to talk to Harmead about this. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because there's another act, I think they're looking at. too, in addition to the FACE Act that might be coming into play. I'd be interested to see how all this is utilized. I was thinking, though, for just the church, what happened at the church?

Yeah, for what happened at the church. Yeah. It's one of the, like, it was one of those laws that to deal with the Klu Klux Klan back in the day, which seems to be part of their approach here as well, which should be pretty interesting. I was thinking about, though, Glenn, of like the, just the Minnesota situation, like, has been really central to, multiple catastrophes over the past five years. Like, it is, Minnesota has been oddly central to our national politics.

To the point, I mean, you think about George Floyd, you think about all the, all the riots that went on, all the crazy COVID stuff that went on, then all the fraud related to the autism outlets, in the Somali communities,

and the daycares, and now all of this ice stuff. And to think about how central it's been in an ongoing catastrophe for half a decade, and the fact that they had to choose from any individual citizen in the United States to put on the ticket for that vice presidential slot. And they took the guy who oversaw all of that. I mean, it is, what a statement on the modern party that they've put together over there. Because this, because Minnesota, as you are seeing, is a very big cash cow.

I mean, Wals is there because he has been able to figure out ways to finance the left. finance all of the worst of the worst. I mean, that's it's clear to me. I mean, there's no way he didn't know about all of this fraud and we're talking billions of dollars. I mean, I'd like to know where they

are on that. I mean, as much as I want to see him go to jail for the other stuff, I'm really still quite pissed at the fraud and I didn't pay any of those taxes. But I know that's happening in other states. We all know it's happening in other states and I don't care if it's a Republican state or a Democratic state,

I want that to stop. A country that doesn't care about corruption is not a country. You will not have a treasury. You won't have law and order. And how we don't care about that and how we are just allowing the narrative to be about these protesters who really care about the Somalis. No, they don't. No, they don't. They care about the money.

They care about the NGOs. They care about the ideology of stopping America. That's what all of this is about. Those are all useful idiots. If you think this is actually about, and I don't know anybody who does. I mean, you really have to be a moron to believe this is about the Somali community. Because quite honestly, yes, do I want to round up some Somalis? Yes, if you're here illegally, if you're Elon Omar and married your brother, if you are, if you were taking money, yeah.

But you know who I really want? I want all the people in the government that we're doing all of this, that we're setting it all up, that we're turning a blind eye. I want the people in the banks. I want people at TSA that we're turning a blind eye at the airport. I want all those people arrested too.

Let me ask you, people on the left, does that sound like it's all about Somalis? No. No. You are liars. And, you know, it's really sad, many of you are lying to yourself. so you can sleep at night.

Before we put our next guest on, I leave her off for a sec because I don't want to put her in a situation where she has to comment on anything. But you know how I feel about the Justice Department. I feel like it hasn't been doing it.

its job, but there is one person there who is really kicking ass. And it is Harmeet Dillon. She is the assistant attorney general for civil rights. And her division is moving rapidly. And yesterday we saw in Minnesota these protesters come into a church. This is a clear violation of the face act. This is what the face act was made for. And so I wanted to talk to Harmeet because she was on the phone yesterday. She was working on this all day yesterday, and I just want to hear where we are on it. Armeet, welcome to the program. How are you? I'm great. Thanks for having me, Glenn. You bet. Listen, let's start with the Face Act. What happened yesterday, they say this is because I guess the pastor is also somebody that works with ice or something. Is that true?

So I don't know if that's true or not, but the pastor you saw on television calmly dealing with Don Lemon in his face is not. I mean, he's the lead pastor and allegedly there's another pastor there who wasn't there on the scene yesterday. I don't know anything about that. We're investigating all of that, but let me say I was actually, you know, it's kind of a holiday weekend. I was on a plane back from giving a speech in Florida when the Attorney General reached out to me and alerted me to this situation. So she's actually been engaged with this from the beginning. And I immediately activated prosecutors and FBI agents to go to the scene and start investigating both the FACE Act as well as related criminal offenses that can include conspiracy charges, material support,

and many others. So we don't have prejudged, but I think it is fair to say that I saw multiple federal criminal incidents yesterday and there will be charges. It's only a question of when can we get a judge to sign off on arrest warrants and exactly what the charges will be. And of those judges have to be in Minnesota, don't they? They have to be federal judges in Minnesota, and I have to go in front of them, so I'm not going to, you know, say what I, you know, what is on my mind sometimes. But, but let's just say that this isn't the, this isn't Texas, and we aren't getting exactly rapid fire support for charges there on the pace. We would love it. People need to understand that, that there could have been arrest yesterday if Keith Ellison,

the Attorney General of Minnesota, enforced his own laws and Mary Moriarty, the district attorney of Hennepin County, enforced her own laws. Instead, we see Keith Ellison being interviewed by Don Lemon yesterday expressing his support for the victims of ICE. So we know exactly nothing is going to happen over there. So you have to understand the federal government has to jump through some additional hurdles. It isn't our job to enforce state law. And we're stepping in to do this here when the state refuses to enforce its own laws. So I don't know if you have an opinion on this, but, you know, looking back at the Shays

rebellion, you know, at the beginning of our country, the laws in where was it, New Hampshire, I can't remember where it was, but the courts were not working. And they were being obstructed by people on the streets, but you couldn't get anything through the courts and this the system just broke down. And while it's not just the people on the streets, the court has been hijacked. They are not following through on the law. The same with the, you know, the district attorney, the attorney general, the governor. So is this a case for the Insurrection Act? Well, I think, I think, I agree with the premise that law enforcement and law and order have broken down in Minnesota.

I mean, I'm personally suing the state over the breakdown of their voting rights laws. I'm also investigating Mary Moriarty for systematic violations of racial discrimination in her plea agreements. I'm probably now given the inaction by local law enforcement on some other fronts going to open up another investigation into the failures of the local police there to do their job or do it only selectively on the basis of race or politics. And so it is a breakdown. But I mean, in terms of the Insurrection Act, I'm not an expert on that.

I do think that you are seeing multiple incidents of violence. And I do think that the attack on the church yesterday, thank God for the pastor who was so calm and the godly people inside that building. It could very well have tipped into violence very quickly. And that would have been regrettable. But what are people supposed to do when the last place you should, the place of sanctuary, the house of God, was invaded by these thugs. And so I think that certainly some more law enforcement,

whoever's doing it, would be most welcome in Minnesota. It was disturbing to see them coming to the church and very frightening, quite honestly. And I just think Don Lemon is just one of the most irrelevant human beings on the planet. And, you know, I would like to say, you know, I think of him as an irrelevant guy, but I actually don't ever think of him. So it's even more irrelevant than that. But I'm not sure if he was in violation unless he was part of it. I mean, do you go after the journalist that's reporting it or do you view him as something that was not just reporting it? Okay, well, I'm going to reserve comment on that specific fact pattern.

But let's just take a hypothetical. Okay. A hypothetical where a podcaster, once a news anchor, is deciding that he's learning of a crime in progress. It's a bank robbery, okay? And he's friends with the bank robbers and he sympathizes with them because he agrees with what they're going to spend the money on. So he, he, the bank robbers call him because they'd like some PR because they think what they're doing is great, whatever. And you decide to go along and you know. know that the group of people you're with are breaking into a building and they're going to commit a crime inside and then you're going to stream it inside. That fact pattern is a much more dubious than how you put it. And so I think, you know, we're investigating our facts. Mr. Lemon has put several hours of video on the internet yesterday saying a variety of things. And I would, you know, if I were his lawyer, I would probably say, you know, maybe you should lawyer up before you do things like this.

But, yeah, I have to tell you. I just have to make it aside here. For anybody who doesn't know who Harmeet Dillon really is, that would have put the fear of God in me. If I were Dodd Lemon and I heard Harmeet Dillon say that, I'd be like, holy cow, I'm going to prison because she does not mess around. But it's good. You know, he did see some of my children.

tweets and he responded to them yesterday in a video, mispronouncing my name and laughing and saying, this was the First Amendment people. Look, the face, I have actually litigated this. I've represented, as you know, Glenn, a number of conservative journalists over the years, including pro-life journalists. I will say, as an aside, Kamala Harris had no problem prosecuting a pro-life journalist, David Delighton, for exposing Planned Parenthoodle Part trafficking. The United States, United States Department of Justice under Merrick Garland had no problem prosecuting multiple January 6 protesters who had their cameras out and were filming and claimed journalistic privileges.

Exactly. So I don't want to become, I don't want to become them, but I do, I do think he doesn't understand the First Amendment. Yeah. You know, he doesn't understand the First Amendment. He has, he has videos out there literally saying, you know, know, F ice and F all the way off. You know, so there is no pretense of objectivity or what have you.

But look, facts matter. And we're going to take a look at the exact facts there. But gosh, he keeps talking and adding to the record. And one of the organizers of this event, who he was outside kissing and bringing coffee to, is a lawyer, an NAACP lawyer, a Black Lives Matters, nonprofit lawyer. So, you know, the lawyer should have known better. This is, you just cannot, a privately owned house of worship, house of God is not a public forum for protest in the United States. It just isn't.

It's actually a violation of Minnesota law to do exactly what these thugs did. And so, you know, we are just all over it. There may be charges coming in different stages, but charges are coming. Tell me about the investigation into Tim Walson, Jacob Frye, email sent out on Friday to all Minneapolis employees implying that they are working with protesters within the city to help them track ICE operations. Tell me about this investigation. I only know it secondhand because my office is not the folks in charge of that. That's the criminal division. I believe Todd Blanche has commented about that publicly.

but it is it is not legal to conspire to evade federal law, federal law enforcement or obstruct it. I will just leave it at that. The governor saying he's going to put National Guard into yellow vests. Does that not indicate that you know violence is coming to ice and you want to make sure that people know that these guys are on your side, so don't hit the guys in yellow? I mean, violence is there.

Violence is in the city. I mean, ICE is being obstructed in the state. From arresting sex offenders, child sex offenders, these people are absolutely wink, wink, nudge, signaling to the resistance in Minnesota that there's an us versus them mentality, and it is okay to be against the police and against law enforcement.

law enforcement and get in their way and get up in their face. And frankly, I think it is blood on their hands that people have already been injured and killed in Minnesota in this so-called struggle because people think this is a video game or something. You know, it isn't a video game. This is real. And when you threaten a law enforcement official, the test is an objective one. Did the law enforcement official reasonably fear for their lives, given all the circumstances,

And all the circumstances right now are that state officials in Minnesota are effectively putting a target on the backs of federal law enforcement with their rhetoric, with their actions, and people are getting hurt. Harmony, I did a monologue, I think, last week and just went over the, just over the positions of power that had to have known or turned a blind eye to all of the corruption. and it is extensive. This is not about putting Somalis in jail. I mean, it is an extensive list to make that happen. Are you familiar with anything, how that investigation is going? Are we going to see anybody held responsible for that? Because there's a lot that need to be held responsible.

No, I agree. But listen, let's talk about the timeline here. This DOJ has continued a number of investigations and secured 62 prosecution so far, convictions, I should say, there are other ongoing prosecutions going up. And what you do typically in federal law enforcement, even state law enforcement, as you get the lower level criminals and then you go up the food chain. So when there's plea agreements with these people, they have a requirement typically to cooperate with federal law enforcement.

And I can assure you that you're just seeing the tip of the iceberg. So the rhetoric out there from, you know, my allies who are like, oh, nothing is happening, there'll be no arrest, LOL. that's not true or fair. This DOJ has actually, first of all, sticking to the attacks on houses of worship. We in the Civil Rights Division, under Pam Bondi's leadership, have convicted numerous people for attacks on Christian houses of worship,

on beheading a statue of Mary and Baby Jesus, and thwarted several attacks. And on the Minnesota fraud front, numerous convictions, numerous investigations. Now we're dealing with this. And it's a target-rich environment. And we're dealing with, frankly, some judges on the bench who slow roll signing arrest warrants, who don't agree with the politics, and who don't frankly agree with federal law.

And so we have to then get wrong rulings and then go to the court of appeals and get those corrected. It's just a process. And I know people are impatient and they think, you know, they want to see arrests every day. Keith Ellison and his team could have arrested people yesterday. And they didn't, and we all know they won't. So we're stepping in to do it. I literally flew two prosecutors from my office after talking with the attorney general yesterday. She's 100% behind this.

We spoke to the pastor yesterday. We praised him for his calm. We gave him some reassurances and his congregation asked them that they needed any support. They're victims of a crime. They're victims of several crimes. And we will not let this happen to another church. in the United States. It is un-American, unacceptable, and there is a zero-tolerance policy for what is this DOJ. Harmeet, as always, thank you very much. Harmeet Dylan, she is the DOJ's assistant

attorney general for civil rights. Her division is kicking ass and taking names. Harmeet Dylan. I mean, Don, you should probably learn who she is before you make fun of her because it could go dicey. Sounds like it could get dicey for you. All right, let me tell you about it. American financing. There is a moment when a lot of people, you know, realize, you know, they've been doing everything right, working hard, paying the bills, trying to be responsible. And yet somehow, somehow it still feels like you're stuck in place. You're on a treadmill. Because the system they set up years ago is quietly holding them there. This is what American financing exists for, that moment of realization when you stop asking, how do we get through this

month and start saying, is there a better way to structure all this so I don't have to do this every month. They help people step back and take a look at the whole picture, the mortgage, the debt, the payments, the interest, credit cards, everything, and figure out whether the setup that they're living with is actually helping them move forward or just keeping them busy. For some, that means consolidating high interest debt. For others, it means lowering monthly payments or just creating some room to breathe and plan again. The average person is saving over $800 a month. That's people from this audience. It's like $836 a month. That's a lot of money to save every month. Give you some breathing room. Call American $500.

Don't lose touch. Glenn Beck will be back after this. a board of Via Raille. Embarked and profited. Embarked and relaxes. Syrotay. Bookiné. Oh, that also. And profite.

Via Rae. The voice that we am. Man, do not miss a second of today's show. We started with what is Trump doing on the world stage? You know, I heard so many people go, what is going on with Greenland? Why? Why? You know, we don't want to invade. No, we don't

want to invade. But what's happening with Canada. Now Germany is like, we're not going to the World Cup. You know, what is he doing? I explain it all in a way that I think, I've never heard anybody else explain it, and I think it's worth your time. Also, Peter Schweitzer talked about his new book, what's going on with Mexico, and this coordinated effort here in our own hemisphere to reclaim the land here in America. Tomorrow we'll join us with Islam and China and what's going on. And tomorrow we will also have a little bit on Davos and we will look again into Minnesota and tomorrow I address Pam Bondi in the DOJ.
