Protect yourself with gold.
You could fire him.
That's just such a hassle and paperwork.
So get yourself some gold from Lear Capital.
I'm telling you, now is the time.

Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
Well, we dodged a bullet.
Maybe a really, really big bullet coming out of the sky with a thermonuclear warhead
strapped to it.
The war in Israel has taken a blessed break.
Maybe we can walk away from this with Iran and just by ourselves some more time.
I'll tell you what happened.
Some amazing news out of Israel.
We'll go there in just 60 seconds.
First, let me ask you a question.
You have your phone bill, auto draft, out of your account every month?
If so, is part of the reason you do that so you don't actually have to see how high the bill is?
Maybe just a little easier if you're not reminded of who's taking your money and what they're spending it on.

Jason, welcome to the program.
Thank you, thank you. And welcome back, Stu Brighier.
Thanks. You're glad I'm here.
Well, you know, that's the one of us.
So,
yesterday, Israel,
Iran attacked over the weekend, and it was a significant attack.
Yeah.
You know that scene in war games where it shows all these missiles heading?
That's what it looked like.
It was insane.
350 missiles, missiles, drones, all that.
It was, yeah.
So a significant attack, they're launching the missiles, some of them into space.
We have video.
Did we get the video in yet?
Should.
of the
what do they call this
the sea dome
I think this
they have the iron dome
and then they have it
it's the aerosystem
watch this watch this
if you're watching the blaze
there
that is
I feel like
I feel like a million voices
we're all screaming
and then suddenly silenced
that is a
hit in space
exo atmospheric
wow
so that's the
aerosystem
going up out of the atmosphere into space and hitting a missile as it's starting to come back in.
I mean, it's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.
And I think this is the first time it was ever captured on film, right?
I think it's the first time it's seen.
This was the third interception in space, but the other two were last year when the Houthis launched Iranian missiles against Israel.
So just the weapon technology involved this weekend is nuts.
99% of these missiles.
We'll tell you what was going on, but the biggest thing you need to know is we could have very easily been in World War III today.
I think because of the arrow missile system, which is a joint project between us and Israel, that really truly saved the day.
If these 300 missiles would have struck the ground, it would have been World War.
absolutely world war.
Oh, if a quarter of these missiles
actually got through. Yeah.
We're having a completely different conversation right now.
And so you know, there's no such thing as a small nuclear war.
If nuclear war, no, no, no, there isn't.
Everybody, everybody thinks that, oh, well, we'll have a limited nuclear.
No, you don't have that.
Bolt out of the blue is how the U.S. nuclear,
command and control refers to an unwarned large nuclear attack.
And they think that it would hit to the Pentagon, probably first would be the first strike,
would be the Pentagon to disable.
And looking into what it would be like, just because of that one, it most likely would be
be the end of civilization as we know it. The reality of our world in which we live, nuclear war,
bad. Day of Nuclear Armageddon based on newly declassified documents written by Annie Jacobson.
Continue in just a second. First, imagine living in a society that not only allows you to commit
murder, but in fact, encourages you to do it, even peer pressures you to do it. We're not describing
movies or anything else. We're describing what happens every day at Planned Parenthood. Preborn is out
to change that. Everything that you think of when you think of Planned Parenthood, preborn is the
opposite of that. And they offer free ultrasounds in cases where, you know, mom comes in and says,
I just don't know what to do. I want you to go to pre-bored.
They celebrate 200 miracles every day.
$28 a month could be the difference between life and death of a child.

Megan Kelly is coming up just a few minutes.
She's going to talk to us about the Stormy Daniels trial, which is beginning in New York.
Gee, I wonder what's going to happen with a New York judge and a New York jury.
I just can't stand the suspense.
Over the weekend, a miracle happened.
I mean, really, honestly, this is a technological miracle.
what happened with Iran and Israel.
Iran sent 300, 300 missiles and drones over to Israel from Yemen and from, I think,
four or five different locations in Iran.
And 99% of them were shot out of the sky by Israel.
That's incredible technology.
It's called the aerosystem.
Please, Jason Buttrill, who joins us, sees our head researcher on the program and also watches over military kind of stuff for us.
Please tell us we have the aerosystem here.
I don't think we do.
Boeing was like the second half of the development of that, so it's also an American, we have dibs on it.
We have our own system, a different system that is kind of pre-deployed on naval ships all over the world.
So we do have the same capability.
That's the Aege's system.
Yeah.
Right.
That's not shooting things from in space.
It is.
It is.
I don't, yeah, I don't remember.
There's two parts of it.
I don't remember the second part of it.
Because the Aja system on ships is just a buttload of bullets coming out.
I mean, it's just round after round of big butt bullets.
Yeah.
It's called the BLB, buttload of bullets.
That's what we call it, you know, in the military terminology.
Right.
Sure.
Yeah.
It was more than just the aerosystem.
So this is what's so amazing.
To really get the scope of this, you have to look at this graphic, the IDF submitted of where all this ordinance was coming from.
Yemen, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, all converging on multiple different fronts all down on Israel.
But they have a three-pronged system.
The further one out is the arrow-two and arrow-three system, which can-
That's one shoot in space.
That's the only can reach up and touch you in space.
The second one is called David Sling.
That shoots lower, yeah, no, they have such cooler names.
I know, they do.
That shoots like cruise missiles or like missiles that are flying low to the ground.
Then you have the Iron Dome, which everyone is talking about.
All of those things were firing all at once going on over the weekend.
But you also had Israeli planes going up and firing on cruise missiles way the heck out there.
Then you had U.S. planes and planes from the U.K.
All of this converging in the skies over the middle of the.
East over the weekend. So is it that Iran's missiles suck so much or is this as amazing as it
sounds? It's as amazing as it sounds. So I mean, cruiser, these are these are current generation
weaponry that we're talking about. Iran is exporting some of this weaponry giving it to Russia so
Russia can attack Ukraine. So this is amazing. 99% you know success rate does not happen. It doesn't.
So, I mean, granted, there's, you know, great technology here, but I think there's some God work going on as well.
Isn't there scriptures when the whole world comes to attack that it is that God just protects, but it's like a dome over Israel?
It was so effective that I think that Iran probably is rethinking some of their first strike strategy against Israel.
Now, you know that they've all game this out.
And I'm sure part of this attack was that that goes into their plans.
Like they know that they want to take out Israel.
If they had to, what do they need?
Well, they threw everything but the Ayatollah's kitchen sink at Israel over the weekend.
I think I was flying.
I think I saw that hit the ground.
The kitchen sink.
They probably use that too.
Yeah.
With the disposal, which is weird.
So if you would have had one of these nuclear tipped, it, I mean, I mean,
I mean, so all of that work for a nuclear weapon, you ain't going to deposit it through a missile, right?
Wouldn't that be the message that Iran would get?
You're not now.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, that's, I don't.
This set I ran back, I'm sure, like probably several years as far as whatever their eventual goal is.
And that right there is the problem, because we know that they're not going to stop.
No.
So when you're saying, you know, when everyone's like pleading with her, when Biden was pleading with BB
over the weekend to don't retaliate.
On one hand, I'm like, yeah, because I don't want to see the Middle East completely change
overnight.
And it's not just that.
But it's not just that.
If they retaliate, Iran has the ability to set Europe and America on fire in the streets.
Yeah.
And that's only a matter of time before it happens.
But I don't know.
I'd like to delay it as long as possible.
Yeah.
But if you're Israel, I mean, you're going, guys.
Guys, we've just.
Look at the overall picture here.
They're surrounding them.
Look at that graphic of where all the missiles were coming from.
Israel is surrounded.
The strategy now, the international community is like, Israel, just keep your walls.
Just keep your walls up and you'll be safe.
When has that ever worked in military history?
Never.
Constantinople, Greece, Troy.
Pick your time.
Your walls are an illusion.
They will keep you safe for a limited amount of time.
But the eventual goal of an invading army is to topple those walls.
that's Iran's plan.
So how long do you delay?
I mean, and if they decide that if Iran says, okay, we're not delaying anymore, that is when the entire region changes forever.
They've been playing this little proxy game for 40 years.
This is the first time, though, that they have not used a proxy.
Exactly.
Yep.
They're not used.
It was a ran.
No proxy.
It was a ran.
And so I, I saw.
And I honestly, I thank God that we are pausing, at least, you know what I mean?
Because this will escalate into a world war that fast.
I just everything in me says once the Middle East is set on fire, Russia and Ukraine and everything else, it's just going to be just dominoes.
Because if the Middle East is on fire and Iran is losing, which they would, they're just
setting all of our countries on fire, you know, internally. So I was glad to see the pause.
However, I was a little disturbed that the news came out from the White House because that should
have come out from the prime minister's office in Israel. But instead, Joe Biden calls BB Netanyahu,
who apparently the war ministry, all voted to retaliate. And then Joe Biden called and said,
Hey, we won't support you.
Don't.
Don't do it.
Don't retaliate.
That's what the White House is saying.
And so BB changed his mind.
Well, gee, thanks for backing me into a corner.
I mean, it might be a corner I like to be in.
But that's not the way you deal with an ally.
Is it?
No.
Yeah.
How they're dealing with this all across the board is not what you're supposed to do.
This attack happened.
And I 100% believe this.
This attack happened because of the Biden administration's overall foreign policy within the Middle East.
When you refuse to stand up to their proxy, Hamas.
When you coddle them as they have, things like this happen.
When you give billions of dollars back to Iran, when you try to go back into the JCPOA, the nuclear agreement with them, when you are doing everything possible to say, let's play nice, let's play nice.
When you've refused to stand up to a bully, this is the type of crap that happens.
And I'm not saying that we go off and militarily attack them.
There is a formula for dealing with this.
It was actually working.
The Abraham Accords was working.
When you abandon that, this is the type of crap that happens.
But if you could have the possibility of getting Trump back in and quelling all of this.
I just want to make it to, you know, January in case he wins.
If he doesn't win, it's, I mean, we're just going to keep seeing more and more of this, because you're right.
It is our policies.
We are weak.
We don't command any respect.
And honestly, we're on the other side.
We're giving money to Iran.
So our tax dollars went to Iran and to Israel.
So you can feel good on April 15th today that you paid for both sides of this.
What do you guys make up the really strange way this all?
unfolded where it was like, hey, drones are going to be there in a few hours. They're all coming.
I think that is, that's, that is in war. Correct me if I'm wrong, Jason, you would know more than, than I would.
But I think that was the signal from Iran. Hey, we're going to do this. Right. We're going to,
because otherwise you surprise. You're like, hey, surprise. But they let Israel. They telegraphed it.
Yes, they telegraphed it, let Israel know, prepare your people for this, and then we're going to stop.
And that gives the Israelis an opportunity to say, okay, well, we stopped you.
Now don't do it again.
Right.
And then their statement right after was like, hey, by the way, that's the end of this.
So you guys know, that's all we're doing.
We now feel the matter is settled.
Is it concluded?
Concluded.
Yeah.
And so they're trying to say, basically, hey, to our people, we did something.
and then to Israel, hey, we told you it was coming, you blocked it all, let's just call it a draw.
Now, of course, Israel, of course, gets the win here, right?
They wiped out important military officials and people they really wanted to target in Syria.
And they stopped the entire attack from Iran.
I mean, it's a massive escalation.
There's no way of denying that.
But like, maybe there's a chance for us to avoid a real inflammation of the entire region.
I think we did.
I think we did.
You think it's over?
You don't think he's not.
I mean, Netanyahu's been saying for years.
It's going to go back to terror.
It's going to go back to terror now.
The missiles, I think, are over.
I mean, Netanyahu's been saying for years, he wants to basically go right after Iran directly,
believes they're doing all this.
He's been wanting this.
They are the head of the snake.
They are the problem.
It's true.
It's all up to Israel's response now.
Right.
And their perspective is completely different from ours.
So you don't believe that they are finished.
Well, because, I mean, according to the White House, they're done.
I think that's what Israel is juggling right now because it was heavily telegraphed. Iran told Turkey that they were going to do this attack. And then Turkey, you know, transmitted that to us.
Let me take a quick break. And then we're going to come back. Because I want to look at this from the Israeli point of view. I'm glad that they're stopped. But if I'm in Israeli, I'm like, go get them now. They've just, they've just blown everything that they have most likely. Let's go get them while they're weak. We could overthrow them.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We're talking about what happened in Israel
over the weekend.
99% of the missiles, over 300 of them were lobbed at Israel.
I have a friend who lives in Israel, and I said, you know, what is it like?
In this, which I'm going to share later on in the program, he said,
what's it like?
It's exactly how it sounds, except you don't know if you can completely trust the IDF,
the brass of the IDF, to actually do it.
You know they can, but are they going to protect you?
Are they going to do everything they have to?
Do you trust the politicians anymore to do what they have to?
I don't know how it feels in Israel.
The rest of the world is sighing a sigh of relief,
but will Benjamin Netanyahu, a guy who is elected because he is a hawk,
is he going to just say no more?
I don't know how he can.
So just look at it from their perspective.
perspective. Six months ago, they had the worst terror attack in, I think, in their history,
the October 7th attack. That was greenlit by Iran. Hamas is a proxy of Iran being used as a proxy.
Hezbollah continues to attack them. They were attacking them right before this attack happened.
Some of the missiles came from that direction as well. Again, proxy of Iran. Now, again, six months
after that horrific attack, you're getting a conventional attack from mainland Iran. And you can say,
Yeah, well, we shot down 99% of them.
They telegraph the attack.
That's what all the experts are saying today,
and they're using that as a sense, you know, a way to de-escalate.
And I'm in that camp.
I'm like, let's de-escalate.
But if you hurt Israel, yes, you did stop that attack.
But what if five of those cruise missiles or a couple of those missiles that were intercepted in space
came down and hit Tel Aviv?
That is a very real possibility.
That's what just happened.
They just, by the skin of their teeth, they stop that attack.
Now, that also could have been an attack of probing how good their defenses are.
What can they, you know, withhold?
It cost Israel a billion dollars to stop those missiles, a billion dollars.
What did it cost Iran?
How many more missiles do they have?
What else do they have in their arsenal?
because you could go after them and maybe they don't have enough missiles or anything else to really retaliate,
but they will set the rest of the world on fire.
Yeah.
And think about, too, the situation for Netanyahu, who really does believe Iran is an evil on earth.
It is.
It is.
And he really does believe that.
But I'm setting that up because I want to follow it up with.
He's also had his share of domestic problems politically.
they want to throw him in prison,
which I know it sounds like a crazy thing
that should never happen in a country.
One party is trying to throw the other party in prison.
It sounds crazy, but I guess it is real.
These things happen.
And he,
his foundation of his support that has not wavered
behind him have been the Hawks.
And it's like, you know, he has a real
motivation to not just let
these people down after Iran fires up.
What do you say he does? Your prediction?
A limited response of some sort.
Jason. I think a strike inside Iran does happen. How do we respond? Does it escalate or is it over?
Oh, no. I think it will escalate how far remains to be seen. God help us all.
Wait, you didn't answer. I don't have to. I'm the host.
Let me talk to you about rough greens. What are you feeding your dog? I think Uno is, there's
something wrong with him now. I don't know what it is, but he was behaving very, very weirdly all weekend.
He's going to the vet today. I hope we don't find out bad news, but we've been feeding him
rough greens, and I think it's given him a longer and happier life because he went downhill really,
really fast, and that's not the way, you know, German Shepherds really do it. And he hasn't had any
real pain until recently.
And he was like a puppy.
We started feeding him. He was probably eight.
We started giving him rough greens.
And he went back to being like a three-year-old.
It was amazing.
Rough greens. Try it with your dog, will you?
It's full of all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, everything your dog needs.
And Oda went from the pickiest eater to just gobbling this stuff down.

Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
this time they're gonna get him.
This time they might. Donald Trump is in front of a jury again. They're actually selecting the jury. Today, for his hush money case. We have Megan Kelly to
lay it all out and tell us exactly what to expect and what's going on in 60 seconds first.
It started out just as a wild thought one day, just a casual suggestion over dinner and a glass
of wine, but then in the following weeks and days, you both kept bringing it up and slowly
the thought turned into an idea and that idea turned into a reality.
What if we sold the house and moved? Now it's a certainty. What you both want is now to find a great
real estate agent to make that happen. I started a company over a decade ago with my brother.
It's called Real Estate Agents I Trust because in my career, I've moved a lot, and I got sick
and tired of dealing with a hassle and not knowing how to interview and find the right
real estate agent. My company will pair you up with agents who will not only work their
butts off to help you on both sides of buying and selling, but also who know the people
that you can trust to do everything that needs to be done. You want it done?

Hi, Glenn. Good to see you. How you doing?
Well, good. I mean, what's going to happen this time? Are they going to get him this time?
They're going to get him.
And I don't know about you, but I don't know.
It's been, you can kind of laugh at it and it's kind of absurd.
But now that it's, I mean, the first criminal trial of Donald Trump has just begun.
They're in the courtroom.
The witnesses will be called eventually after they pick the jury.
And they're going to try to put this guy behind bars, potentially.
They're 100% taking their best shot at stopping him from winning this race.
and it really, for me as a lawyer, it's been a very sobering morning.
I'm just disgusted.
I cannot believe we're doing this.
It's like Princess Diana behaving like a street whore.
That's what we're doing.
The United States of America doesn't do this.
And because we're in the hands of this scummy prosecutor, multiple, it's not just Alvin Brad, but he's the lead on this.
we've gone down this road pretending a payment to a porn star who is threatening to expose an affair
is a crime that warrants 34 counts. And they're going to make it as sleazy as humanly possible.
We're going to hear about David Pecker, who ran the National Enquirer owned AMI Media and the catch and kill schemes to bury negative stories on Trump and to inflate stories.
on Hillary. Great. I can't wait to hear about fusion GPS. Was Trump the only one trying to get dirt
printed on his opponent? Because that's what this jury is going to be left with, that he worked with
dirty magazines to get Hillary painted as fat and unwell. And without talking about how his campaign
was spied on, she's been trying to get him impeached or thrown in jail along with President Obama
for years.
Politics is disgusting and dirty and underhanded, and we wish it weren't so.
But guess what?
It's so.
Welcome to America.
And never before had we put somebody on trial for antics around it or a man on trial
for not screaming from the rooftops.
I paid off a porn star so she didn't humiliate me with my wife.
We are embarrassing ourselves with this trial.
I feel appropriately disgusted.
What is the difference between this trial and the trial that didn't happen because I only lied about sex, you know, to save my marriage, to make sure I didn't humiliate my wife?
That's basically why Donald Trump perjured himself.
Not Donald Trump, but Bill Clinton perjured himself.
And nothing happened there.
Everybody just walked away.
What's the difference between these two?
one's a Democrat and one's a Republican.
Okay, that's what I thought.
That's what I thought.
Yeah, if you're a Democrat, you can lie.
Ask Fannie Willis.
Ask Nathan Wade.
It's fine.
You can lie on the stand under oath like Bill Clinton did.
It's okay.
Just an affair.
Oh, wait, that's what Trump was doing too, allegedly.
That's, wait.
He was lying to cover up an affair.
Only one lien does it become a felony.
And just, you know, not to get too deep in the weeds, Glenn, but let's not forget.
what's really happening here is a misdemeanor bookkeeping snafu or error or misstatement
that the statute of limitations had run on.
Right.
They reinvigorated a dead claim by saying, well, it was made to cover up an underlying felony,
which was a campaign finance violation.
You made an $130,000 donation, quote, unquote, to your own campaign by paying off
Stormy Daniels to win an election.
Well, guess what?
That's not a campaign finance violation.
The only way you get the campaign finance violation is if the payment could only ever have been made for one purpose, and that is to help your campaign.
Well, guess what?
Again, hush payments have been made by men to shut women up since the dawn of time.
It doesn't have to be to save one's campaign.
And that is the relevant legal test, which Alvin Bragg should know, because it's the reason the feds were not interested in pursuing this claim against Donald Trump.
So is it just a corrupt judge that is making all the,
because the judge should have looked at that and said, no, you can't do this.
Yeah, yes.
I mean, it's not just because we've got Mr. Bragg.
But yeah, the judge is a serious problem.
A nonpartisan judge would have thrown this out on the papers pretty easily.
And I do believe there's a very good chance that this will ultimately,
no matter what happens with the jury, get thrown out on appeal.
Like most of the prosecutions against Trump, not the obstruction case.
But the J6 case could get thrown out soon, actually.
If the Supreme Court throws out the obstruction charges in this other case that's going up involving J6 defendants, not Trump,
if the Supreme Court does anything on presidential immunity.
And then even if he loses that J6 case, if there's a trial, I think it could get thrown out on appeal.
But he has to go through the humiliation.
We, we, America, have to go through the humiliation of this criminal trial first.
we just saw our former president
dragged into a criminal
courtroom today
and in typical Trumpian fashion
he said, I'm proud to be here.
He said, I'm very proud to be here. Well, that's smart.
Trump's smart. He always does a positive spin
on anything that happens to him.
But let's be honest.
This is not a proud moment. Not for him,
not for us.
Not for his family. I'm ashamed of us
for doing this.
So what do you say
about Donald Trump
this is
something that we would be
disgusted by if it was something
that was happening on the other side
Bill Clinton comes to mind
that we as conservatives
would say
this guy he shouldn't be doing this as president
but in the Clinton case
it was illegal he perjured himself
but there really isn't anything illegal here
and if there was it was
It's past the statute of limitations, right?
Well, there's such a difference between those two cases.
Let me tell you, Glenn, no one is allowed to lie under oath.
Correct.
It's a felony. It's a felony. It's perjury.
And a lawyer really isn't allowed to lie under oath.
You have additional duties of candor to a court before they admit you into the bar.
You swear not to do things like that.
So there are additional obligations on a lawyer, which Clinton was.
was. And on top of that, there are additional obligations as president. He violated them all.
He committed a felony. Donald Trump made a bookkeeping misstatement. That's what he did.
And for that, he's being hauled into court. There's just no comparison between the legal sins.
And look, I don't have any doubt Trump's going to be convicted. And to be honest, I don't have any doubt Trump did this.
I'm not, I don't really doubt that Trump didn't write down the push money to Stormy Daniels
porn star who was threatening to go to my wife and the media about an affair I may
probably did do that.
Well, there was another one that he paid off where there was another one he paid off that
it wasn't true.
So I mean, we don't know, right?
The door man?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, that's, well, that's another piece of the AMI media piece of this case,
which hasn't gotten as much attention, but it's going to when you hear, I think David Pecker's going to take the stand.
The guy who ran AMI owned it.
He's going to take the stand and say, yeah, we caught and killed stories, including from this Karen McDougal,
who was the 1998 playmate of the year, who allegedly had an affair with Trump,
and also took a payout from AMI to write health columns instead of take the story to a publication that would,
run with it. This is what the allegation is that if you were a friend of pecker like Trump was,
you could get this kind of thing done for you, and that's what he was doing for Trump. And we're
going to have witness testimony to that effect. And that's, okay, is anyone shocked?
No. Trump didn't want all of his affairs coming out? No. I don't care. I'm sure he has had affairs.
I'm sure, you know what? I'm sure Obama did, too, the sainted Obama. And I'm sure Bill Clinton did.
And the only reason the Clinton thing became a story is because Linda Tripp decided to tape his lover and go public with the story.
It wasn't neither pair of the lovers wanted that public.
Linda Tripp brought it public.
And then Bill Clinton, rather than being a man and owning up to it, lied under oaths.
We're back to that problem.
But this is just, we shouldn't be knowing about any of this.
We shouldn't be humiliating ourselves and getting neck deep into the gory details of it.
But the Democrats are going to be a wash in, in season.
Trump affair details for the next six weeks, but accidental.
How do you think this plays with the American people?
I think they're going to be disgusted like I am.
But unfortunately, I think the very group Trump is struggling with, women, former Republicans
in the suburbs, like where I live, they're not going to like this, you know,
because most of our husbands don't cheat on us with people.
porn stars and playmates of the year and pay them all. I would hope that it doesn't just
we don't, yeah, we're all cheating, but not necessarily with porn stars and playmates.
And there's also only so many playmates of the year. They would be way too busy if everyone
was cheating with them. Way too busy. I mean, I think most husbands don't cheat on their wives.
I don't think they do. And so they're not going to like this. You forget MAGA.
Okay, I get. Like, those guys who are out in front of the courthouse right now who are amazing.
The pro-Trump guys with all their pro-Trump gear and they're like the anti-Trump guy.
Did you see the guy with the flute?
He hates Trump. It's like liar, narcissist, felon.
And then he's playing lovely flute.
It's like, God bless America.
Anyway, the hardcore MAGA, they're not going to care.
We all know.
Nothing's going to change their mind.
And most Republicans are on Team Trump and realize this is a political.
persecution. But there is a group of independence now, center-right independence, who used to be
Republicans, who don't like Trump. And it would be very helpful to the Republican Party and Trump
if those people could be more disgusted with Biden than with Trump. And they might yet be,
but this is not going to help. And I don't mean the conviction. The conviction won't help
either. But six weeks of Trump's a shudson, that's not going to help.
Remember, you're on podcast land. Broadcast.
That's all right. That's all right. So, Megan, does he go to jail? You said he's going to be convicted.
Does he go to jail? And what would that mean? How much time would he be facing for this?
He's not going to jail on this case. So he's not. But you have lunatics like Andrew Weissman, who honestly, he's not a, like this guy's got a very legitimate legal resume. I realize, you know, he left the FBI and all that. But he was General Counsel of the FBI. He was a U.S.
attorney and he's out there seeing nonsense like, well, Trump's a recidivist. A recidivist is somebody who
continues to commit crime after he's served time or been convicted. You know, like you just can't
stop yourself from selling the heroin. That's not Trump. So it is true that there's the potential
for jail time if this judge somehow turns him into a repeat offender because he's facing three
other criminal trials. That's not happening. So I don't think he's going to jail for this one. I think
it'll be a matter of fines.
But that doesn't change much.
I mean, jail time would be far, far worse.
But they still have their conviction.
And the thing is, guys, half of independence and still one third of Republicans are saying
they like Trump, but they can't vote for a convicted felon.
And I was having this discussion with, actually, I think it was with you guys still.
You and Dave Marcus were on my show last week.
what if they mean it?
I know we don't think they mean it.
What if they do mean it?
What if they, because I even look at this case, like,
oh, this, or this case, what if we're wrong?
What if we're downplaying this?
Like, no one, everybody knows this is a BS.
But we're wrong.
When we misread the polls and we do often because who the heck knows what to believe
on polls anymore, we get burned.
And so today, really,
could be day one in Trump losing this election. It could be. I don't think it will be,
but I recognize the danger of what they're doing here. And of course, we all know that's why
they're doing it. I was hoping that it was going to backfire on them. I think it has to some degree.
I don't know when you add the actual felony, you know, to this. Well, that's again, Glenn. That's the
question. Is the backfire,
bounce already baked in.
Right?
Like, has he already gotten all the balance there is to get from the outrage over resetting
norms that have been in place for almost 250 years?
And that's, and that, of course, would be the Democrats plan to boost him in the primary.
He'll get whatever back or whatever bounce he gets from the backlash.
And then it wanes over the course of what they hoped would be for criminal trials.
now it looks like just this one.
But this is their best shot.
Six weeks, disgusting man,
horrid husband,
and now convicted felon.
They don't need to hurt him much.
You know, Joe Biden only won by 45,000 votes.
I know.
They don't need to hurt him much.

So this isn't good.
It's not the way you want to start your day.
But hey, at least there's new nuclear war, but then again, it is tax day.
I don't know how to balance this one out today.
It's a busy day.
It's a busy day.
There's a lot going on.
Yeah.
What do you think of that last point Megan made?
that there's a chance that these people who are saying that they may go and vote against Trump
just because he was convicted of a felony. There's definitely a percentage, and it's enough to swing the
election if it's true. Do you believe them? I tend not to, but there is a chance, right? They're
just telling the truth. As soon as they see felony stamped on him, they're going to go the other way.
I could see 3%, 2% of the public feeling that way. Maybe, you know, maybe as much as 5,
maybe as much as 5%.
That's huge though.
Because you're not really paying attention.
And there are those that are not paying attention.
Now, I can't imagine that you're for Trump and you're not paying attention to what's going
on in the world.
You know what I mean?
Because the only reason why you would be, you know.
Every coalition, though, has tons of people who aren't paying close attention.
Every candidate that's ever run has had lots of people who just have vibes, right?
Maybe it's their family history.
Everyone's been a Republican for a Republican for.
Maybe it's just their general sense of the situation.
I mean, not everyone pays close attention.
I mean, that person who's like, I'd probably vote for Trump, but he's a felon.
And so I'm not going to vote for him.
It doesn't mean necessarily they go to Biden, though.
They could go to RFK.
They could go to nothing.
They might just not vote at all.
There's certainly people who will do that.
You just don't want to lose them.
He can't afford to lose a single person.
And I've been talking about this for weeks.
like the election's closer than I think
Republicans right now think of it.
I agree. And it's shocking that it is.
Yes, I agree. That part of it I agree with.
But I mean, you talk to, I talk to people all the time
that are just like, well, Biden's so bad.
Eventually people are not going to really vote for him again
because he's so bad. And he is that bad. He does deserve
to get zero votes in this next election. Oh, he's worse than
Jimmy Carter. He is. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Legitimately worse than Jimmy Carter. And I don't know.
I mean, he hasn't been a successful passing reforms.
is LBJ, but he's in that category of what he's proposing, and he's overturning our system of
government with stuff like the student loan stuff.
Yeah.
Doesn't even care about it.
No.
So I agree he should get zero votes.
The problem is basically these guys are tied.
I mean, you can look at, we're in the margin of error in almost every measure.
It's a terrifying way to look at it.
When it comes to personal defense, you have options, but the options are kind of on either side
of a wide spectrum.
on one end you got guns and they'll definitely get the job done but you're going to have to kill a guy
don't pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody on the other hand you have things like a knife
or a taser or maybe pepper spray or brass knuckles i don't know about you but i don't want to get that

Yay, it's tax day.
I'm so excited.
Do you feel charitable?
I do feel charitable.
I know I'm helping out, for instance, I'm getting people from other countries into our country illegally just by giving.
by giving my tax dollars to the charitable organization called the United States of America.
And they are giving those tax dollars of mine and yours to fly people here illegally.
And then set them up, get them, fly them to wherever they want to go.
And then set them up, maybe use some of my towns dollars, my tax dollars for my towns, you know,
just to have the town be able to have a little tent city for them.
or maybe just take over like the YMCA so they can have a swimming pool too wherever they're staying.
It's, man, do I feel charitable today?
Really feel charitable.
Or you really want to feel like you're doing good work.
Just think of the millions of dollars that your whole life, you'll work, your entire life.
And you'll never, you'll probably never ever even pay, you know, for even one of those programs.
one program or just one of the giveaways to people who went to college,
then went and to get their PhD or their doctorate,
and then they decided, I can't pay it.
And so you're paying for that.
Or they said they can pay it,
and they're just going to get it paid off anyway,
even though they are totally planning on paying it.
Or those people that are now ripping us off in Ukraine,
I feel so good about those guys too.
Or the F-35, we're only 25% of them.
them are actually mission ready, but we paid for them.
Yeah.
I mean, if you think about that, like, every day you will work in your entire life,
all the taxes you'll ever pay in your entire life, don't even add up to the amount of weapons
that fired at some Russian target and missed in the last month.
But just the ones that missed.
They didn't even do any damage.
All the taxes.
In fact, all the taxes your children and your grandchildren won't cover that either.
Isn't that great?
Like, does that make you feel really good about your country and the way it operates?
It does.
And it's about time people pay their fair share.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, they won't.
Gee, they won't pay their fair share.
Gosh, darn it.
So's evil rich people.
Well, not the really rich people, you know.
Not if you're really, really rich, like the Kennedys or Soros or somebody like that.
They're not going to pay their fair share.
They already paid it years ago.
And now they're in a trust fund.
So they don't make income,
per se. So they don't have to pay income tax. But we're going to use those people to try to make
everybody hate the rich and then not go after those people, but the people who are just like
entrepreneurs, you know, that are just trying to just trying to start a business and, you know,
hire people locally to do things locally. I hate those people. Anyway, I don't know if you put up
your tree or have you filed for your extension yet. You're going to be amazed.
hear this. And a lot of people have criticized me
over the years and say, hey, you never file your taxes
on time. And, you know,
this year, I have to be honest with you.
I'm proud to say, I
filed my extension on time this time. Wow, that's
amazing. First time in a long time. He's never, he
doesn't pay his taxes on April.
Never. Never. To be, please finish
that sentence since we're on national radio, I don't pay my taxes
on April 15th. On April 15th.
I pay them by the October 15th death. Right.
But I pay my taxes. I want to make sure that's very clear to all our IRS
listeners. In fact, I know you
know you well enough to know because you work with me, I overpay on my taxes. You overpay on your
taxes. Psychotic about it. Whenever my accountant asks, hey, so this one is like kind of a borderline
want, do I pay it? Just pay it. I know. Mine's not even borderline. They're like, okay, well, this
one is pretty clear. No, nope, nope. If it's not absolutely clear. If it's not like, everybody takes this.
I'm not taking it. I'm psychotically defensive about it. And I think,
especially as a conservative these days, you have to be. You have to be. Well, they didn't,
it's not like they spent, you know, what was it, $85 billion on new, all the employees.
Yeah. Yeah. Definitely going after George Soros with that.
Oh, yeah. Gosh, can you imagine all the pressure of these big left-wing donors right now? They're probably
shaking in their boots. All these new, all these really rich people with all these questionable taxes,
you know, you never know. I'm sure they're coming after you.
So now the average American, the average American pays one-fourth of their income in taxes every year.
That's 25 cents on every dollar.
Gee, I wish that were true.
I wish that was true.
But that's really not all you pay in taxes.
That's just to the federal government, okay?
So when you make money, you're taxed.
When you spend money, you're taxed.
When you don't spend money, you're taxed.
And sometimes you're taxed when you die.
I mean, I just love it.
I mean, this is really, and the whole thing is, it's actually legal, which is quite a racket,
if you can get that.
So we've put together a list of the five most immoral taxes that you're forced to pay.
And that's hard to do, because I find all of them immoral.
But let's start with one that's not really considered a tax, but it is inflation called the hidden tax.
let's say you have $10,000 sitting in a bank account or you know you've got it in your 401k and you're like we're going to retire one day honey we're already 87 years old i know but we're going to retire someday when we can afford it so you have that $10,000 sitting in the bank you're saving up for the future but the government doesn't stop spending money so the next thing you know a gallon of milk costs twice as much as it used to
Now that $10,000 in your bank account is worth a lot less.
So what does that mean?
Because the government can't control its spending,
you're being punished for saving your money.
And it's legal.
Isn't that great?
Inflation rose another 3.5% year over year,
which means I think the total now is like 18% inflation
from when Joe Biden got in.
It's 18 or 22% inflation right around there.
So that's good.
So you're actually paying about 20% in hidden tax.
But they don't call it a tax.
Why?
Because they're absolutely immoral liars.
And that moves us on to the fourth most immoral tax,
the death tax or the estate tax.
I like the estate tax because then I,
think it's only Bruce Wayne and his cronies that are going to get hit. Who has an estate?
So maybe we should call it a death tax because the only reason why you're being taxed is because
you died. Now, the only reason this isn't in the top three is that most people don't pay it.
In 2024, only estates valued over $13.61 million can be federally taxed. Yeah, but that's going to change.
that's going to come down.
And it's only the value of the estate over that amount that gets tax.
So your estate is worth less than, you know, 13 point.
You can pass that down tax free.
Well, kind of.
First of all, still doesn't make it right.
When was the government given the power to tax the dead?
Well, they do have rights.
I mean, after all, many of the dead have voted.
for taxes after their death.
So no matter how much money you save up, they're going to get their grubby little fingers on it.
Now, coming in at number three is Stu's favorite, income tax.
Now, this one is so unconstitutional that they had to amend the Constitution to start doing it.
You make money, and then the government takes a portion of that money without telling you up front,
using all sorts of complicated rules and regulations.
And then you have to file the return to prove that you're not illegal.
Now, no person is illegal except for those who didn't file their income tax.
You have to prove you're not illegal when you file that.
File that.
But if you file it wrong, well, then the IRS can throw you in jail.
But they never do that.
It's not like they hired 87,000 IRS agents to go after small businesses and people like you.
That's just not happening.
Now, I know what you're thinking.
The government needs that money to function, that income tax.
Well, you know, the government first imposed the first income tax in 1862 to fund the Civil War.
So the government functioned for almost 100 years without tapping into your income directly.
And then after the war, the tax was repealed.
Yeah, until 1913.
So apparently they don't need it.
No, they don't.
So the government doesn't need the income tax to function,
but it does make up a big chunk of our federal revenue.
Fiscal year, 2023, the government brought in $4.4 trillion in income tax revenue.
$4.4 trillion.
You're like, wow, that's a lot.
That's a lot. Yeah, half of it actually was from income taxes. So, you know, I don't think they're going to be repealing the 16th Amendment anytime soon, especially since the government spent $6.1 trillion. Now, I'm not a economist. I'm not an accountant. I'm really, really pretty bad at just basic math. But I think 6.1 is more than the 4.4.4.
that the government, quote, makes.
And I know if I spend more than I make,
eventually I get in trouble.
Good thing my income tax is paid for prisons, huh?
Number two, most immoral tax, the payroll tax.
At first glance, this might seem a lot like the income tax.
It's a tax the government quietly takes out of the money that you make every paycheck.
But this one is just a bit of.
more sinister. While the income tax funds a whole bunch of government spending, the payroll tax
mostly just funds two things, social security and Medicare. And the vast majority of it goes to social
security. So if you're under 50, just relax. You're never going to see that money again. I'm just
turned 60. I'm never going to see that money. But actually, you would have never seen that money in the
first place because payroll taxes that are withheld from your paychecks. In 2024,
employees will pay 7.65% of their payroll tax into Medicare and Social Security without
really even noticing it. But employers also have to match that tax. So the real payroll tax is
15.3% out of an employee's salary. And if you're self-employed, you get to pay that on your own.
So that's wonderful.
I mean, I don't know what I could do with 15%.
That's almost nothing, you know.
And it never gets discussed.
Yeah.
Like they'll talk about adjusting the rates occasionally.
They never talk to talk about the payroll tax, which by the way, regressive tax, not a progressive tax, a regressive tax.
That evil rich people pay a lower percentage than poor people.
Right, right, right, right.
So immoral, you bet.
Now, most immoral tax, what could it be?
I'll tell you in just a minute.
First, my cousin Vinny, you know, he wears concrete shoes and sleeps with the fishes these days.
And that ain't so good, see?

Hey, so we're looking at some immoral taxes, huh?
It's tax days.
So the argument for property tax, you know, make some sense.
It's the tax levied by local governments, not the federal government.
It funds things like schools, roads, bridges.
Wait a minute.
Didn't they just vote in Congress?
give teachers more money and they're always asking for money to build roads and hey don't think
about too deeply.
Tradeoff is insane because, you know, what most people think is the American dream is actually
the New Deal redo of the American Dream.
The idea of the American Dream was being able just to make it just to live your own life,
being left alone, and maybe, you know, owning some property.
and then it became two cars in a garage, you know, a chicken and everybody and a house.
It's not really, but we the people, there is something about being a landowner that is very,
very American.
But if you save up enough money to put a deposit down on a house, thanks to inflation,
the house is smaller, the deposit is bigger.
But it's yours, you know, once you pay off the mortgage, not so fast.
skip a few decades ahead.
The mortgage is finally done.
Now you retire and you're not so big but very expensive inflation house.
You still have to pay property tax.
And that's for the school that your kids graduated from 20 years ago.
And to make matters worse, the tiny house you bought has just been reappraised and inflation never seems to stop.
So now it's double what you bought it for.
sure you could sell it but it's your house you want to keep it in many states property taxes are
you know just a just a percentage of your homes appraised value so you're now paying double the
taxes and you still don't have any kids in that darn school and the good news is the government's
now starting to say hey what's it worth right now i mean maybe we should tax you on everything
you own it's gone up eh so not only will
the local community be taking state income tax or property tax, but the federal government's
going to do it too. Isn't that great? The whole thing sounds a little immoral, but especially the
fact that you don't ever really own your land. The minute you can't pay the tax, they foreclose
and take it from you. That seems a little immoral.
like I'm not really pursuing my happiness, then am I?
Because I own nothing.
Oh, but I am happy.

WHEN WHEN THE COURES SOLEED YOU DO ON THE RIVROW ON FRIDATE.
When that great, I love that.
I love that when they were like,
Hey, we don't want you checking on us if there's, if you don't have a warrant, you better have a warrant.
Of course, the American people, screw those people.
Yeah, they gave you get you.
that ability to them, you know, so you gotta have a warrant if I'm a member of Congress.
Where's your warrant?
Oh, sir, you're no longer a member of Congress.
More, God, no.
So they're going to try a redo today.
And I don't even understand.
Don't even, it's a vote no on the motion to recommit to re-e.
I have no idea how Washington works.
good thing, Representative Anna Polina Luna is there,
she's going to explain what is happening and what the odds are that,

Congresswoman from Florida, Anna Paulina, Luna, welcome to the program.
How are you?
Hey, Glenn. Glad to be back.
Good. I'm glad to have you.
And thank you so much.
I saw your letter that came out today.
Let me just read just a little bit of it.
Last week, we had the opportunity to reform and reauthorize a widely misused and abuse system within FISA, Section 7.
too. You go on to talk about how, hey, Congress is now, they're protected, but you left everybody
else out. So what's happening today? So basically what we did was we saw that there was this
massive orchestrated effort and even from the intelligence community to really get members
to vote for this version of FISA, which is completely unconstitutional. We allowed the bill to come to
the floor. However, the warrant amendment that Representative Biggs had put forward that would require
the federal government to get a warrant if they're going to surveil you, that actually failed by one vote.
And so that is something that, one, if you're a member of Congress and you're not supporting that,
you need to find a different job, but also, too, we weren't going to go down without a fight.
And so I did something that is not commonly done by the governing majority.
And I brought forward a motion to reconsider, which means I objected to them.
passing this out of the House and basically wanted to give everyone a second chance to reconsider
their decision. So what's happening today is at 630, we're going to have an opportunity to kill FISA.
That means that we're going to be voting on the motion to reconsider. And of course, members of
the intelligence community are going to try to table that. So we're urging all members to vote no on
that. And ultimately, that would allow us to bring it back and potentially put forward that amendment and
fix it before we send it over to the Senate. How long did you work in one?
Washington before your heads stopped hurting on just the I got to vote no to be able to vote yes
to be able to reconsider to not table it I mean I don't even understand so you have you have to vote
you have to vote which no to the first part yeah we have to vote no on the motion to table the
motion to reconsider so basically if you want to get involved I'm just I'm in my own capacity
I'm urging everyone to call your congressman and ask them to vote to kill FISA and they'll know what that means.
Okay. Vote to kill FISA. That's all you have to say. And where are you going to
Congress will know? Where are you going to find? Because it was 12 to 12, 212 to 212, I think, wasn't it?
That was on the amendment for the warrant. So right now in order for FISA to go down, we just
need a simple majority, which means we need 218. We need 218 members to stand together and say we will not go
along with the unconstitutional surveillance of Americans.
I love this.
Thank you for fighting.
Sincerely, thank you for fighting.
So do you think you have the 218?
You know, I honestly don't know.
I don't want to sit here and get everyone false hope,
but I did find a way to be able to get this letter to the Democrats over the weekend.
You know, they silo it so that we can't openly communicate some of these dear colleague letters.
And so I was able to reach out to some people.
So I think that you will see a change in that,
number. But again, this is a simple majority. So if we get the 218, we can kill it, we can reform it and
send it over before FISA lapses. But I just want to remind people that, you know, for any member
of Congress saying that this wasn't violated, that's a lie. You know, the FISA courts found that the
federal government actually violated it over 278,000 times. And this didn't just stop at members of
Congress, journalists and political commentators. I mean, it went into over 19,000 donors of
congressional campaigns. And even for some of the more progressive members of Congress, I mean,
were talking about, you know, some of their protesters that had their civil liberties violated
as well. So I pointed that all out in the letter. Wow. So, but it was only 200 and how many,
how many thousand? Seventy thousand times. Right. So it's only, it's only that. Let me read this
part. The FISA court has documented many of these abuses according to FISA court. The federal
government used Section 702 for searches for 141 racial justice protesters and political
activist groups that organized protest searches based on witness report that two men of Middle
Eastern descent were loading cleaning supplies into a truck, searches for a state court judge
who reported civil rights violations to the FBI. The FBI conducted batch searches that
included current and former federal government officials, journalists, political commentators,
am I on that list? And 19,000 donors to congressional campaign. The FBI conducted
to search on a member of Congress and a U.S. Senator.
That's not good.
It's not good.
It's not good at all.
And we do have the opportunity to stop it.
We don't just have to accept what they're trying to shove down our throats.
But I will say that, you know, this no matter what, will end in two years and we'll have the opportunity to reform it then.
But I just, I think it's really, really awful that people would throw the Fourth Amendment out, you know, out like that.
And in the name of protecting America, they take away your freedom.
Yeah.
I mean, isn't the amendment thing about what Congress cannot ever do?
That was the whole point of that amendment process, but maybe it's, maybe it's me.
I mean, when they wanted to levy income tax, they had to vote for an amendment.
Why aren't they going for an amendment on this other than they know it will never work?
Why aren't they forced to go that way?
You know, Glenn, I've really had some kind of deep thought on the floor watching the board
because if I could just explain for a moment what happened, we saw members that, you know,
the, I'm going to call them the Intel Bros had lined up that would, if we were winning by a vote,
they would have someone else go down and flip their vote.
And I watched members do this.
I watched them do this.
I had Senator Mike Lee standing next to me, and we were seeing members flip their votes
in order to intentionally kill it.
And when they had one more, you know, that would join us,
they would, again, have someone go and change their vote.
So the fact is, is that there is this uniparty that exists in Washington.
And I will say that there were Democrats that were actually standing with us on this.
And they even told us, you know, behind closed doors that, you know,
there is that block that will ensure that the agenda, whatever it is,
will pass no matter what.
And so when we're seeing this happening,
when you're seeing how the control mechanism works and how it's in place.
I just, all I'm going to say is in my own capacity is it's so incredibly important that people are getting involved for this next election because there's a lot on the line.
And I think that, you know, we are seeing a massive identity crisis and change in the Republican Party, but it's for the better.
And this is just part of the growing pains.
But this can't continue.
Yeah.
This is different than the Tea Party was.
This is, this time it's real.
It's the people that are there like you are.
are actually committed to this, and it's not just a populist thing.
It is an actual constitutional backing.
So I appreciate it.
Anna, thank you so much.
You bet.
Bye-bye.
Please call your congressman today and tell them to vote no on FISA.
I was trying to be yes on the recommit.
No on the, I don't know.
Just no on FISA.
No on FISA.
Have you watched the octopus murders yet?
I have not heard about the octopus murders until today.
All these octopuses.
They were all killed.
Really? Yeah, all killed.
No.
It is something on Netflix.
You have to watch it.
We're doing a podcast either this week or next week with the journalist and the
documentarian that are featured in this movie, this documentary.
It's, I think, four or five episodes.
It's on Netflix.
It is terrifying, Stu.
Terrifying.
You first watch the first episode and you're like, I don't know.
I mean, it kind of sounds, you know, by the time you hit the third episode, you're like,
oh my gosh, dear God, this is what's happening right now.
So are you done with this series?
Yeah.
No, I've got one more episode, I think, left.
Do you, so you haven't gone through, you have to watch the whole thing before you go through
the sort of fact checking process.
Do you do this after every documentary that you watch?
I always do.
Like, after I watch it, I'm.
I'm always concerned it's some effort to make me think something.
So then I have to go read a bunch of stories about it.
But you can't do it beforehand because then it could give you spoilers.
So here's what I do.
This time on this one, all my fact checkers were the ones that saw it first and went,
oh, we just fact check this.
You need to watch this.
And so that's why we're doing a special on it coming soon.
It's remarkable.
And it happened during the Reagan and George H. W. Bush era.
I think it's, I don't know because I'm not at the end, but I think it's still kind of going on.
And it's everything, it's deep state.
It's deep state.
And how they get around things, how they are in bed with the drug cartels and shipping of arms and everything else.
under the table. It's remarkable. Remarkable. One guy, several, well, several people have died. The one guy who
started and did most of the journalistic stuff died, was killed. He committed suicide, but he cut his
wrists, each one, I think, like six times, but they were cut so deeply that the tendons were
cut. So how did he cut the other? How did he cut the other wrist? Well, his mouth. Yeah.
Yeah, that he went for the mouth. And then there's bloody handprints like there was a struggle
all over the bathroom. Uh, but, uh, no, they, they, they investigated that quickly. They
shut that down quickly. No, suicide. Wait, but the blood, suicide. But I mean, there's blood,
suicide. You look a little depressed right now. Are you?
You seem a little skeptical, Glenn, of their analysis of that crime scene.
A little bit, a little bit.
You need to watch that.
Yeah, it sounds interesting.
Yeah.
Because when you understand, you remember when Donald Trump said, yeah, well, we've done bad things too, and you're like, well, now hold on here.
So sure, I want to hold on anymore.
I mean, it's all of this stuff.
You know what it is? It's the NSA, the NSC, the CIA, all of them. They've just gone so dark.
We are in the golden era of documentaries as well. We are. We are in that period where like there is just there are, if all you watch was documentaries all the time, you still couldn't get to the end of the list that you might have. There's so many out on interesting topics too. I think we've gotten to that point now where,
Some of them aren't even good.
Like, they're just churning out stuff because they want documentaries.
But, I mean, who would have thought that documentary films would be this, like, massive industry?
I mean, it was forever.
There was none that got into theaters.
No, but I think that's because nobody wants to go.
You want to go on a Friday night to a theater to see a documentary?
No.
But you do want to watch it at home on a Friday night.
You want to watch it at home.
You know, I think the documentaries that television made, by the way,
I've been watching Monk just to clear my head.
Monk, the old series?
Yeah, the old series.
I'm at the age now.
I'm at the age now.
My father used to watch Matlock.
I guess it's my age now to watch Monk.
I don't know.
Did they assign this to you?
Did Netflix make you watch it?
Maybe you watch it.
No, you know, I'm watching mindless stuff just so I can just clear my mind.
So I'll watch an episode of Monk and I'll be like, okay, I'm fine.
You know, I'm fine.
I'm mindless.
I'm not thinking about anything.
Right.
Except maybe how bad that show is.
But I thought it was a well-regarded series, no?
Might be.
Might be.
Not by me.
Not by you.
You don't like it, but you're watching it.
I'm watching it.
I mean, I don't, I don't, do I have to go into my analysis of monk?
Because I don't think, I think I might be the only person.
You brought it up.
I didn't bring a monk.
You brought up.
And I don't even know why I brought monk up now.
Oh, because.
I'm watching Monk and I'm realizing, wow, commercial television was really bad.
Really?
Okay?
Really bad.
Because I think this was kind of an acclaimed show back in the 90s.
Wow.
Not good.
Not good.
But you continue to watch it.
Right.
There's a lot of episodes of it if I remember.
Yeah, but I mean, it makes me not think of nuclear war.
You know what I mean?
That's interesting.
There are a lot of shows available.
There's a lot of television to watch.
I know, but it's good, but it's also pretty dark.
All the stuff is pretty dark.
You've got to go back to the 90s where it was really mindless.
Where you're like, oh, look, somebody murdered somebody.
Don't worry, they're going to catch them in 45 minutes.
You know what I mean?
You said it was really dark, and then you referred to wanting to watch murder stories.
Yeah, but they're happy murder stories.
You know what I mean?
Not for the person who was murdered.
No, but there's a whole cast of characters in there.
there that are kind of silly and goofy.
Yeah. You know, you're like, oh, what's the captain going to do this time?
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
So anyway, but I think we were watching documentaries.
They were just like on the history channel.
And they weren't making good documentaries.
Yeah.
They were making the same thing.
In World War II, the Germans, and you're like, okay, I've seen this a million times.
But that's what they were doing.
Hang on just a second.
So you're right.
Golden era, because everything.
has become better.
All right, let me talk to you about Lear Capital.
The Biden administration, they're running the American economy, and for them, it's like
shooting fish in a barrel, except you're the fish, I'm the fish, stews the fish.
The American dollar is the barrel, and it's being shot full of holes.
So it's going on, it's good, you know, it is.
They're engaged in ongoing war between bad foreign policy and bad domestic policy,
to see which one brings us down first.
May I suggest you have a firewall?
You get gold or silver.
I want you to call and find out about their wealth protection guide.
It's just information that you should read.
I'm a guy who always says, don't trust me.
Do your own homework.
I know that's not real popular in the administration now,
and for those with disinformation fears,
I think you're smart enough to do that.
So do your own homework.
You can see what's coming our way.
It's not good.
Get your free wealth protection guide, and Lear will credit your account $250 towards your purchase of gold or silver.
Do it today.
$800-957 gold.
That's $800-957 gold.
$800-957 gold.
Do it now.
10 seconds, station ID.
So I got a note from my producer of Studios America the other day.
It was Friday night.
He's like, oh, you got to check out this movie.
It's on, I think it was Hulu or Prime.
I don't know, one of those services.
He's like, it's really good.
You got to check it out.
I'm like, all right.
I don't normally get recommendations from him.
And it's called Zone of Interest.
You hear this?
I click on it and I start watching it.
It is the story of the guy who ran Auschwitz.
That's a good Friday night.
Right.
Hey, honey.
Right.
He ran Auschwitz, and it's the story of him and his family who built a nice little home on the house.
Oh, right?
On the wall, right?
No, no, no.
behind the line. Right behind the crematorium. Yeah. So it's like this, the whole movie is basically
this sort of like boring family drama about like where they're going to move. Fascinating.
And who's going to, is their mom going to come live with them? In the background, you just see
smokestacks and like they're swimming in the river and just ashes come by. Yeah, it's like it snows in
their backyard. It's horrible. And like that's a really horrible story. I'm also quite
concerned why it was a movie
recommendation for me on a Friday night.
Why did I
I was like the target? And it didn't come from me.
I didn't even come from you. Wow. By the way,
of course, it's entirely in German.
So a subtitled
Holocaust drama.
Yeah. Oh, that's a Friday night.
No, that's a Friday night. That's one you'll never
forget. What do people think of me?
Whatever it is,
it was actually interesting. I tell you,
I don't think I'd even watch that documentary.
I've been to Auschwitz. I saw that.
I know that story.
Oh, yeah.
It's incredible.
Oh, my gosh.
It was really good.
The kids, they would be working.
The Jews would be working in the gardens, and the kids would be like, you're a dirty Jew.
And you're like, oh, what a happy little family right here.
It was weird.
Oh, you watched the whole thing.
Yeah, of course I did.
On Friday night.
Yeah.
What do they think of me?
Well, they got you right.
Glenn Beck.
Imagine pizza without any toppings.
Imagine a big heaping handful of mashed potatoes, no gravy.
Imagine an ice cream cone without ice cream.
It's depressing, right?
Now imagine your dog's food without any nutrition.
I'm glad we got off the ice cream part, but this isn't getting any better.
Unfortunately, if you're feeding your dog anything other than kibble food,
it's pretty much what they're getting every time you fill the bowl.
They don't get any real nutrition.
everything that is living has been cooked out of it and to have a long shelf life.
It can sit on the shelf for up to two years and not go bad.
That's saying something.
So what you do is you take your kibble food and you put some rough greens on top.
Now, this is an all-natural supplement that was developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
You sprinkle it on the dog food and it has all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, everything your dog needs.

I have a friend in Israel who answered the question, what was that like?
He said, what was it like to have Iran launched drones and cruise missiles at you by the hundreds?
It's like it sounds, exactly like it sounds.
It's going to sleep after checking the news at the end of Shabbat, finding out we're on high alert.
Public gatherings are canceled.
They don't know what's coming or when.
But something's coming and something's coming soon.
It's waking up around midnight to the news that they're on their way.
They'll be here in a few hours.
It's waking up again in a couple hours later to the sound of the air raid sirens.
They're here. Running for the shelter, gathering up the kids along the way, praying the steel
shutter and blast door closed smoothly and you don't get stuck on some piece of dirt or some dropped
toy that you can't see in the dark. They close, small sigh of relief. It's wondering the whole
time how long, because, you know, you have 60 seconds from the time the alarm sounds if it's the
usual dumb missiles coming from Gaza. But this is a different weapon. Coming from other directions,
how many, how did the army set the warnings to go off?
Do we have the same 60 seconds?
More?
Less.
It's then hearing the detonations over your head and thinking those sound like interceptions.
You think maybe rather than impacts.
You think, you hope, it's waiting with your scared children,
going through your phone for updates that aren't coming in yet.
And raw data that hasn't been sorted into a picture that makes,
sense. Trying to figure out how bad and if you should be doing something more. Failing to find it,
it's waiting the standard 10 minutes and wondering again because this isn't the usual thing.
Are those 10 minutes? Is that still apply? More or less? But you can't hear any more
explosions so you think it's probably safe to get out now, as safe as it gets. And it's knowing you
better get some sleep because tomorrow might be a long day and you'll need to spend time in the
vicinity of a shelter and the kids are stuck at home and who knows if this is it for tonight.
Maybe there'll be more in the morning. Who knows how the week develops? It's knowing the IDF is up
to the job, but also being sure, not being sure you can rely on the top brass. It's being completely
certain you can't actually trust the civilian leadership charged with making the decisions.
It's praying that God will protect his people. It's reading the news and
and finding out the IDF had some help, that's good, you think?
In that it means the West has not completely lost its compass, yet,
or at least not to the point where they'll let something like this go through unchallenged,
if only because the world has real interest in the region,
not going completely up in flames.
At least you hope.
It's unending astonishment at the continued blame that falls from the West
and all unhindered by any interception on your country and its leadership for having brought all of this around,
as if Beebe is responsible for this whole mess.
It's the Jews, don't you know?
We wouldn't have all these problems with the Jews if it weren't for all these Jews.
But as Mr. Gutierrez of the UN is so fond of saying,
these things did not happen in a vacuum.
The fine examples of homo allegedly sapiens, Israel has been eliminated.
whether in Gaza, Lebanon, or Syria,
were not just there playing tourist.
They were not hardworking small business owners,
dedicated teachers, or promising students.
They were all there doing one thing,
preparing to kill as many Jews as possible.
Some actually went through with it.
Some absolutely would have, if not for a well-placed drone.
But goes the trope.
They must not be touched, certainly,
not as long as they don't actually harm anyone,
because, see, it might make them mad.
These people who are planning murder with everything they are,
they might come and harm someone.
Mr. Obama has been saying this kind of thing,
as has Mr. Biden, Ms. Harris, Mr. Macron,
and the list goes on and on.
It never seems to end anymore.
Don't make them mad.
The people who are planning to kill you,
don't make them mad.
They might then do something violent.
Excuse me?
Yes, yes, your neighbor who's building weapons to burn your children with,
Don't make them mad and certainly don't try to remove the threat.
They might do something that we all regret.
You might get hurt.
Yeah, we know, we know.
But if you go after that psychopathic demon planning to hurt you, you'll get hurt.
Wait, what?
Well, you get messier than the world really wants it to.
That's the rub, you see.
The world doesn't necessarily care if the Jews get killed.
Jews have been busy getting slaughtered this whole time,
including on the sacrosanct Ramadan holiday,
during which terror attacks happened on average of twice a week.
But Israel was supposed to be suspending offensive operations
because, you know, the terrorists might get mad.
Just yesterday, a 14-year-old shepherd's body was found.
He'd been murdered by terrorists,
and the details are still unknown, mercifully.
For the crime of being a Jew in his own land.
For the record, no burning down Palestinian villages was almost certainly not the right response.
See the Bubba effect.
But all that is acceptable because, well, it's just a few Jews.
And anyway, their presence in Judea and Samaria is both temporary and illegitimate to begin with, right?
Yes, several nations helped the IDF down Iran's weapons en route last night.
Israel is grateful.
the few in Israel think they did so for the love of Jews.
They just don't want the world to be too impacted.
They don't want the monsters to get too mad,
maybe because there's evidence that they have such monsters right there under their own beds.
So what's it like?
Well, Glenn, it's praying God will protect your children.
That's what it's like.
this was a miracle that happened.
99% of everything that was launched at them was taken out.
That is a miracle.
It's also a miracle that Israel hasn't responded.
However, the war cabinet had a very heated debate.
So far, no plans going forward, but I don't know.
If this were us,
if Canada had launched 300 missiles that we shot out of space
and even if a couple of them had landed,
but we shot all of them,
do you really think the American people would be cool
with the president who was like,
you know what, it's just Canada, we got them all, we got all of them,
and they're fine.
I don't think so.
This is one of those weird things where our priorities do not match up
with Israel's priorities?
Right?
Like, if I were Israeli, I would be arguing, I'm sure, for a massive response to this.
As an American, my interest is to hope that World War III doesn't break out.
You know, and so the fact that they shot all these down, I mean, you could, you could fairly
look at this and say, Israel just won this back and forth, right?
Like, they took out real military assets.
And this is...
And it felt very little destruction from it.
This is the way the New World Order works and has been working.
since Vietnam. You don't go all out. One country who wants out of it retaliates, but they warn
you in advance, hey, we're going to retaliate and it's going to be coming around this time,
so look out. And then you're allowed to shoot them all down. And then the loser, Iran in this
case, walks away going, ah, victory to its people. And the people cheer. And everybody else goes,
then that is what's happening. Right. That is exactly what's happening. Now it's the,
question of the next step. Right. If I were Israel, see, this would be, again, our interests are not
aligned. If I'm Israel, I'm like, take them out. You just showed the superior force here.
You just showed you can take them out. Free the people of Iran. Kill those guys. Take them out.
You can do it now. Certainly target any facility you believe has nuclear capability,
capability. I mean, they could justify almost anything after this, which is understandable.
And how I would want it handled if I were Israeli. I mean, we could say the same thing about
Ukraine. Right. Like, if I was Ukrainian, I would be like, no, they're not taking Crimea and
keeping it forever. I don't want it. I'm fighting for our land. That's how I would feel if I were
in Ukraine and I were Ukrainian. I am not, however. Right. And my interest is I don't want
nuclear war breaking out. Correct. So whatever border you have,
I'm a little more open to.
It's weird that someone would attack Ukraine and take those cities or try to take and kill all those people.
And our interest is not aligned with Ukraine.
And yet we're like, hey, get them.
So we're pushing for nuclear war there.
But when Iran does pretty much the same thing.
We're like, hey, hey, hey, yay, come on, guys.
I mean, the fact that we came out and basically made a statement saying,
we will not help you if you were retaliate.
Right.
Like, we prejudged their reaction.
It's crazy.
Sending a massive signal to them, once again, saying,
we will control your response to this if you want our help in any way,
including arms sales, right?
We are doing that.
We are trying to exert our influence there publicly to them.
And it's fascinating. We do the exact opposite in Ukraine.
Exact opposite. We say keep going. You guys can win. You got this. You got this. We'll get you everything that you need.
And they're threatening nuclear, but they don't have a record of using nuclear, Russia.
They've had nuclear for a long time and they haven't used it. Not to say that they won't use it.
Not a big issue of restraint, I don't think necessarily. But I get it.
Well, I mean, when it comes to Iran, they are all hepped up to use it.
Yep.
They want it.
They want to use it.
And, you know, speaking of those documentaries of Germany, where was Persia?
Oh, I remember.
Persia, it was changed to Iran, wasn't it?
The name.
Yeah, why?
Do you remember why?
Well, I know that the translation means Aryan.
We're your Aryan nation.
so maybe because of the influence in Persia at the time where they all loved Hitler,
maybe we should believe the Persians or the Aryans now saying,
we're going to burn Israel in the fury of the Islamic fires.
Maybe.
Maybe we should take them at their word.
Isn't it the fires of the Islamic fury?
I could be.
I don't remember what one.
It could be.
It was something like that.
It was something like that.
I just know they want to burn it all down.
Yeah.
Kind of like, hmm.
Oh, Hitler was into that.
He was.
Yeah, that's weird.
And then it was Iran along with the Mufti that got all of the plans for the concentration camps
and they were going to build them all over Iran to kill all the Jews.
Huh.
Well, good thing that the Mufti didn't have any.
Oh, wait a minute.
No, the Mufti.
Didn't he start Hamas?
Yeah, he started Hamas, which is funded by Iran.
Both of them loving Germany, hating the Jews.
Wow.
I just threw this one all together.
Maybe we should pay attention.
Maybe they are the bad guys.
If I was in Israel, I know that's what I'd be saying.
Get them while you can.
Unfortunately, that would be bad for us.
I'm not encouraging anybody.
Just stand here and just like freeze.
That's what you should do.
If I were president right now, I'd just be like,
I don't, I don't hear you.
La, la, la, la, la, la.
Anyway, no matter how much we don't want bad things to happen,
bad things happen,
there comes a day when a first responder or a military service member
just doesn't come home.
Or maybe they do come home,
but they're so severely injured
that their lives and the lives of their families
are never the same.
The Tunnel to Towers Foundation is there for these people.
For catastrophically injured veterans and first responders,
they build mortgage-free smart homes,
allowing those heroes to move around more independently,
more financially secure.
Their homeless veteran program helped over 3,300 homeless veterans alone.
It is an abomination that we have that problem.
They do so much more for people who put their lives on the line
for our community and our country, people who need our help now more than ever before.
Would you help them?
Donate $11 a month to tunnel to towers at t2t.org.
That's t, the number two t.org.
Call in and let it out.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
There's something else here now.
Something new.
From exclusively on Paramount Plus.
It's the series Stephen King calls Scary as Hell.
Everything here is impossible, but it's also real.
Sci-fi vision calls it the best show streaming right now.
We're running out of time and we still don't know the rules.
Don't miss what the movie blog calls something you need to watch.
Saving those children is how we all go home.
From binge all episodes exclusively on Paramount Plus.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
So I'm going to be interviewing today.
in just a few hours,
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.,
which should be interesting.
Would be interesting, yeah.
Do you have to listen to his voice to hear the interview?
You do.
You do.
I'm out.
But the reason why I say it's going to be an interesting conversation,
one of the just many reasons it'll be interesting is
I'm going in for an injection in my back today.
Okay.
And they put me under with Profifol, and I guess, like, is that the true serum?
And like something that is also used as true serum.
Okay.
And you're not supposed to do anything after.
You're not supposed to sign any contracts, do of anything of importance.
You're really supposed to go home and sleep.
But I'm going to get off the table and come right back and do an interview.
So this might be a very interesting conversation.
So Bob, can I call you, Bob?
Oh, that could be interesting.
Yeah, it could be interesting.
Well, this is, of course, a person who famously called both you and Rush Limbaugh traders that should be treated like traders.
Yeah.
Constitution has a designated treatment for traders.
Yes.
Death.
Death.
So, yeah, that's, of course, fascinating.
Big supporter of the Green New Deal, I know, a big universal health care supporter.
Huge universal health care.
Yeah.
Real conservative guy.
Someone conservative should be thinking about giving their vote to.
I think he'd be, honestly, I think he'd be a great answer to Joe Biden, but I can't understand why.
You mean if a, so a Biden voter who didn't want to vote for Biden would consider him?
Yeah, he'd be great.
But I don't know why you would consider yourself conservative and then vote for a guy who's all big government.
Yeah, really a fascinating thing.
In fact, I mean, if you want to vote for the guy who Barack Obama was looking at for his environmental protection agency head,
That's a guy.
This is a guy you might want to consider as a conservative.
Because he's a real, real, real good.
Right down the line.
Yeah, he's a right down the level conservative.
Well, he only called for me to be treated as somebody who was committing treason because of my point of view on global warming.
Right.
So he's very open-minded, very open-minded.
Big Hugo Chavez supporter, too.
Thought he did a great job in Venezuela.
Went on and on and on and on about his wonderful.
interesting interview today.
Jackson,
proofs are I'm into it.
The Glenn Beck program.
