Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the program. Our sponsor is The Best of Enemies. I'm very excited about this movie. Comes out April 5th, which is, geez, is that this week? Yeah, April 5th. That's tomorrow. Oh, wow. Best of Enemies is out.
Starting point is 00:00:11 This is a great story. C. P. Ellis and Ann Atwater, they were kind of from the other side of the tracks. I don't think you could get further. You have a civil rights activist and the Grand Cyclops of the KKK. They might disagree on a few things. Yeah. I don't think they loved each other at the beginning. but they were able to actually somehow come together.
Starting point is 00:00:31 It's a story. I mean, if you think today is divisive, imagine going through this. It's The Best of Enemies. It is out in theaters tomorrow. So you should definitely go see this. It has Taraji Hansen in it, and it has Sam Rockwell in it. I love Sam Rockwell. Yeah, it's going to be a big one.
Starting point is 00:00:46 The Best of Enemies. Movie is where you see the trailer and learn more about these remarkable people who did remarkable things. It's tomorrow, April 5th, The Best of Enemies. Dot movie. Gee, your hair smells terrific. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembeck program.
Starting point is 00:01:06 You know, there's a lot of people who would say, you know, Joe Biden is creepy. And we should talk about that. Well, yeah, sure. But we've all known that for a very long time. It's like, yes, Michael Jackson has an amusement park. I don't know. What do you think it says? I think it would be better to talk about the firing.
Starting point is 00:01:31 in the Ukraine. We have a special coming up next week on Joe Biden and his scandals and what really people should be talking about. And next hour, we have a guest that is uncovering one of these scandals. And it is pretty bad. Joe Biden is where we begin next. This is the Glenn Beck program. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Imagine I spent the first few minutes of the show sharing my driver's license number, all my financial information and social security number and I just gave them all out. Now, by the way, here's my PIN number. That'd be crazy, right? But when you're connected to Wi-Fi, public Wi-Fi, even if it's password protected, that's almost exactly what you're doing. You're exposing all of your private information that can be used by cyber criminals. This is why you need Norton Secure VPN.
Starting point is 00:02:26 A VPN is a private server, so you log on, but then you're not using it. your laptop it's going over to I don't know like Sweden and you're using somebody else's computer and they're using others and you're onto this network where no one knows who who you are because all of the servers are all over the world so you can't ever really be hacked into because nobody can follow you this is really really good for your personal security for all of your information Norton Secure VPN it'll never allow anyone to log your online activity and app usage.
Starting point is 00:03:08 This is a private network. So get a Norton secure VPN as soon as possible. Here's what you do. You go over to Norton.com slash VPN. Norton.com slash VPN. Protection starts at 333 a month. It's Norton.com slash VPN. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:36 So while everybody is concentrating on Joe Biden, and he's, well, would you call it an apology, Stu? I mean, no, I wouldn't say it was an apology. I mean, first of all, he didn't say you're sorry, not required in an apology, by the way. But, you know, it's an expression of regret. So I think you could get, there's some level of apology in there. However, it's more of, you know, look, you guys change the rules. And I now realize you've changed the rules and I will change to reflect that.
Starting point is 00:04:09 We actually have the statement. Wait, what rules? The rules of human interaction, I guess. No, the rules have never been like that. I mean, unless you're John Wayne Gacy. I mean, really, seriously, what are the rules? That's like, those are like, I think that guy's a pedophile. In 1965, you know, to 2025, that's pretty clear.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Well, I mean, I don't know if that's actually true. I will say that, you know, there's been a lot of study on who is offended. by such things, such creepy Joe Biden actions over the past couple of weeks. And it seems to me to be largely some sort of generational gap in which everyone who seems to be interviewed, who's a Democrat and is you know, campaigned with Joe Biden or been at rallies with him, the older generation seems to really like it. And, you know, like there's
Starting point is 00:05:03 people, one of the women who came out, now there's seven, by the way, who've come out and said, hey, Joe Biden made me feel uncomfortable. one of the women specifically said after it happened, everyone started coming up to me and saying, oh, you're so lucky. And I thought to myself, wow, should I think of myself as lucky and not offended? Which I don't even understand.
Starting point is 00:05:22 I don't understand the thought process that goes into that. I mean, if you felt creepy, creeped out about it, why are you second guessing and thinking you might be lucky? I don't understand it. But the point there is that everyone around her did not seem like it was offended to the fact that she's got a bunch of attention from the vice president in the United States, people were thinking it was kind of great.
Starting point is 00:05:42 And the funny thing about this is, and I think it's very central to this whole incident, the first thing you have to remember is, absolutely no one on the Democratic side actually cares about any of this. Nope. Not one little bit. None of them think it's bad. None of them care,
Starting point is 00:05:58 including, I would say, the women who actually are coming forward. Now, yes, they may have been offended, but watch how little they care about those incidents if he wins the nomination. They'll all be out there being like, you know what? I mean, it did make me feel upset at the time. But I think he's changed.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And I honestly, he's a really good guy. I've learned over the past few months about what a great guy this guy is. And I support him. And that's why I'm campaigning for him as for president. The timing of this coming out is just ridiculous. Yeah. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:06:27 This has been an issue for a very long time. We've talked about it before. This is solely an issue being used for politics because at this very moment, they think they can get someone who's more socialist than him to be president. If they believe the two choices are Joe Biden and Donald Trump, the most socialist person they're going to be able to find is Joe Biden, and then they will love him. And they will only be critical of whatever they think Donald Trump did.
Starting point is 00:06:51 And they will hammer anyone who comes out against him. Of course. I mean, it's so transparent. So it's hard to take any of this seriously. Here's the sort of underlying issue here. for Biden when it comes to the story. Joe Biden's strength as a campaigner is very closely related to what we're calling creepy, which is he comes out.
Starting point is 00:07:18 He shakes everybody's hands. He gives everybody hugs. He doesn't put his hands on the shoulder of everybody. He doesn't kiss everybody's head. But he doesn't do it if it's a man or a boy. He says he does do it sometimes with a man. He says that in a state. He's come up to a man and smell the back of his head.
Starting point is 00:07:34 he does elude to that. He doesn't specifically say it. I've never seen that more. It's possible, though. I'd like to see the video footage of that. If you're Joe Biden and your strength is walking around some Iowa firehouse and shaking hands and kissing babies, which is what everyone used to call it, I don't think he could call it that anymore. If he can no longer do that, because if he has one moment that looks creepy, it's going to be a national news story every time now. So you've taken it.
Starting point is 00:08:04 his strength away from him for this entire primary, which of course is the secondary part of this. Number one is get him out of the race. Hopefully this turns into a big thing so we can win because we're socialists. Number two is if he's going to be in the race, at least the things that give him an advantage over us, we're going to be able to take away. I feel somewhat like, remember that scene with the emperor
Starting point is 00:08:28 where Luke has all this, you know, gusto, like, oh, yeah, my friends are coming. and the emperor just goes, Oh, you think that your friends will save you. It's kind of like that. It's kind of like, at least we got Biden. Oh, you think that Biden will save you.
Starting point is 00:08:49 He will not. He will not. He's going to try, though. And Jolten Joe had a statement that came out yesterday. And this is, it was made on a phone, so the audio is not fantastic. But we, let's listen to it and we can translate it. In my career, I've always tried to make a human connection. That's my responsibility, I think.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I shake hands, I hug people. I grab men and women by the shoulders and say, you can do this. And whether there are women, men, young, old, it's the way I've always been. It's the way I've tried to show I care about them and I'm listening. And over the years, knowing what I've been through, the things that I've faced, I found that scores, if not hundreds of people have come up to me. I've reached out for solace and come up. something something anything that may help them get through the tragedy they're
Starting point is 00:09:39 going through and and and so it's just just who I am social warms have began to change they've shifted and the boundaries of protecting personal space have been reset and I get it I get it I hear what they're saying I understand it and I'll be much more mindful that's my responsibility my responsibility and I'll meet it but I always believe governing, quite frankly, life for that matter is about connecting, about connecting with people. I've worked my whole life to empower women. I've worked my whole life to have run abuse. I've written up. And so the idea that I can't adjust to the fact that personal space is
Starting point is 00:10:23 important, more important than it's ever been is it's just not thinkable. I will. Where's this good wife, Jill, on this? his beautiful, lovely, talented, good wife, Jill. I mean, that would help a lot. Because he always talks about Jill. And quite honestly, if I were doing these videos, you know, and I had been hugging people and you saw these kids like, oh, this is creepy.
Starting point is 00:10:53 My wife would say to me, would you stop doing that? Oh, honey, I just love it. I just love these kids. I know, but it looks creepy. Stop it. Stop it. I know. I know. You've got love in your heart and everything else. But stop it. Yeah. She's never said that to him. And where is she just going, you know, not just stepping up and just going, you know what? My husband is like this. I've talked to him about it before. He's just like this. But he is a loving guy. You know how ground he could get? He could shut it down. Where is his good wife, Jill? I mean maybe maybe he doesn't ever want to include her in this because you know whatever but it just seems strange because I know my wife your life would too Lisa would too if you were seen in these videos because you watch these videos and a lot of them are very
Starting point is 00:11:41 uncomfortable and you watch them and if you knew I mean Lisa knows you you're not a creepy predator but if you were acting not to be right if you were acting like a creepy if you were acting like Joe does yes she would see that and what would she say Hey, I mean, she'd probably be delicate about it, but try to tell me, stop doing that immediately. Yeah, that's really, that's not, it doesn't, people are creeping out. It's weird. Stop it. I know you don't mean anything by it, but, you know, be careful with people's personal space. Right. I mean, that's, and now, look, that may have happened. We don't know. It may have happened multiple times. But that's what she can say. Look, I've said this to Joe. He's not like that. He's not like that. He doesn't even see it that way. He really believes in connecting with people.
Starting point is 00:12:26 people, but I see it. I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. I see it, but I know my husband as well. I mean, it could very well be. Remember, they're not even in the campaign yet. You know, I mean, it could very well be that they're holding that back as a, as a future defense. I will tell you, I'm not sure. I'm not sure he makes it to the campaign. If, if people are serious about getting him out of the campaign, oh, they have something. And I'll share that with you next.

Starting point is 00:14:37 contributor, even though his pieces are journalism. They, the left, actually, the Clinton Foundation, made him file all of his stories under opinion pieces because they didn't like what he was writing. They're like, really, he's more of an opinion guy. And they got all the reporters at the Hill to say, yeah, he's got to be filed under opinion. He's not an opinion guy. He's a journalist and has won awards for it. Anyway, he's got an opinion piece out now on the hill.
Starting point is 00:15:12 Joe Biden's 2020 Ukrainian nightmare, a closed probe, is revived. Two years ago after leaving office, Joe Biden couldn't resist the temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time he was vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor. In his own words with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukraine, Ukrainian president in 2016, that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion on U.S. loan guarantees sending the Soviet Republic towards insolvency if they didn't immediately fire the prosecutor general of the Ukraine. We have the audio tape. Here's the audio tape. I'm desperately concerned about
Starting point is 00:15:59 the backsliding on the part of Kiev in terms of corruption. They may have. I mean, I'll give you one concrete example. I was, not I, I, but it just happened to be that was the assignment I got. I got all the good ones. And so I got Ukraine. And I remember going over convincing our team, or others to convincing that we should be providing for loan guarantees. And I went over, I guess, the 12th, 13th time to Kiev. And I was supposed to announce that there was another billion.
Starting point is 00:16:35 dollar loan guarantee. And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yotsynuk that they would take action against a state prosecutor, and they didn't. So they said they had it, they were walking out to press conference. I said, no, I said, I'm not going to, we're not going going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority. You're not the president. The president said, I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion. I'm going to be leaving here. I think it was what, six hours? I look at I said, I'm leaving it six hours. If the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. Oh, son of a bitch. Got fired. And they put in place someone
Starting point is 00:17:15 who was solid at the time. Okay, now why is this a big deal? As you will hear next hour from John Solomon, and we touched on this, what, two weeks ago before this tape was found and before John did his work, we told you that his son is very, very dirty. Joe Biden's son is very dirty. And he's getting all of these special deals when he goes in and he is offering trade deals and offering extra money. All of a sudden, Joe Biden's son comes in and he gets these special deals that nobody else gets. For instance, he has a trade deal with China that no. one else has. Goldman Sachs doesn't have. J.P. Morgan doesn't have. But Joe Biden's son, who just
Starting point is 00:18:08 started an investment, he's got this sweetheart deal with China that no one else has. Well, he was involved in a company in the Ukraine. And that company was being investigated by this attorney general or their, what did he call them? Their prosecutor general. That's who Joe Biden got fired. I want you to get this guy out of there. Why? Did it have anything to do with the fact that that Attorney General was going after the company that Joe Biden's son was a part of? That's the accusation. And we'll have more on that with John Solomon and more next week as well. That happens, I think it's going to be Wednesday or Thursday of next week where we're going to really open up a few things that nobody's willing to talk about.
Starting point is 00:19:01 See, you said something that it could actually, a real thing that could be used against the president. I thought you were talking about his early career endorsements for beauty products. I thought that was the thing. Well, I mean, I think, you know, we dug this up, and I look at it the opposite way. I think it's going to actually help him because at least it gives him a reason for being as creepy as he is around women. So you think this helps him? Well, because you know that it was just all started by an ad campaign. I could see that.
Starting point is 00:19:32 I could see that. If you don't know what we're talking about, you know, Joe Biden, he keeps coming up and he's like, you know, smelling people's heads and their hair and playing with their hair, we found that there's a reason for that. Can we roll the old commercial, please?
Starting point is 00:19:46 I use it because it's a good shampoo. My hair looks clean and shiny. And even though it does smell terrific. I just don't believe anyone would ever tell me so. Gee, your hair smells terrific. Gee, Your hair smells terrific. I guess you never know.
Starting point is 00:20:04 There it is. There it is. Was that Biden? It was the first one, Biden? The first one with hair. Okay. Yeah, Biden with hair. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:20:10 And it started with this shampoo back from the 70s. Gee, your hair smells terrific. And he's been looking for that smell ever since. And I don't think it's on the market anymore, sadly. It's not. And that's why he's like, no, no, it doesn't smell terrific. It smells pretty good, but not terrific. There was another ad, too.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Do you have the other one? This is, uh, gee, your hair smells terrific part two. Susie, I did not borrow your, gee, your hair smells terrific shampoo, so Jimmy would notice how good my hair smell. Oh, no. I used it to get my hair really clean and shiny, like yours. And that's the only reason. The only reason. Gee, your hair smells terrific.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Try, gee, your hair smells terrific, fragrant shampoo and conditioner, and guys will notice. Bet you they will. I mean, poor Joe. He's now being vilified for something that was an ad campaign. Gee, your hair smells terrific. When he was like 60. Remember, this is not in his youth. This was back in the 1970s.
Starting point is 00:21:08 So I think it was, what, 65? Yeah. At that point. He's just first getting his, I mean, it's a Medicare. Right. He's first getting, he's retiring, at least as far as a. And there's nothing creepier than a 67-year-old man going, gee, your hair smells dreaming.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Exactly. Well, except unless it's a 90-year-old man going, because you don't know what they're saying at that point could be like that is something that's going on with Biden right now too and that he he always has had this let me pause
Starting point is 00:21:43 and for dramatic effect and say things in a low monotone whispery voice and it gets weirder and weirder as the years go on it seems like he's just passing out like what's going on I'll tell you man
Starting point is 00:21:56 I'll tell you, man I'm looking for Another word for Banzumbas But Because I just grabbed a set of Banzumas In the I'll tell you man
Starting point is 00:22:09 Should I be saying any of this? Those Banzumba's personal space have changed And I can alter the way I approach them Not those Buzumas Oh Those Buzumas need to be held All right our sponsor This half hour is Car Shield
Starting point is 00:22:25 car repairs are not what they used to be. It used to be that we could repair our own cars. Do you remember when they used to say that British cars suck because, well, the English, you know, they just love to tinker on their cars. Nobody, no, no, they don't. No, they don't. Yeah, I have a British car. I don't like tinkering with it. Yeah, you have a M.G. Yeah, that's, that was my first car was an M.G.
Starting point is 00:22:47 And I was like, oh, come on, man. They weren't even trying. They weren't trying. This is like a socialist state car. It just does not work. Oh, they love to tinker. No, they don't. No, they don't.
Starting point is 00:22:58 They would rather be driving it. But anyway, you can't tinker with your cars anymore. You can't do anything to them anymore.

Starting point is 00:23:52 I don't know if you saw this past. Matt Gray joins us, Minister Louis Farrakhan, who his Twitter is still up after this. He said, yesterday, God does not love this world. Now, that's news to me. Hmm. God never sent Jesus to die for this world. Jesus died because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of civilization of the Jews. Wow.
Starting point is 00:24:22 was never on no cross. There was no Calvary for that Jesus. He's offended. He's offended everybody except the people who follow him here. Here's the audio. God does not love this world. God never sent Jesus to die for this world. Jesus died because he's.
Starting point is 00:24:53 die because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of the civilization of the Jews. Stop for a second. What? That's incredible.
Starting point is 00:25:09 I don't even. Oh my gosh. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. What? It's helium Thursday. That's true. Why are we doing this? Sarah. Yes. Can you can you make Lewis Faracon
Starting point is 00:25:23 sound like he's on helium I think I can do that okay oh here I am ladies and gentlemen the Glenn Beck program presents Helium Thursdays with today's special guest
Starting point is 00:25:39 Louis Farrakhan God does not love this world God never sent Jesus to die for this world Jesus died because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of the civilization of the Jews.
Starting point is 00:26:07 It makes it a little more palatable, then it? It does. Wait a minute. Who else could we do this to? Play the... There was no calvary for that. Stop, stop. Play the Joe Biden apology thing from yesterday.
Starting point is 00:26:23 And my career, I've always tried to make a human connection. That's my responsibility, I think. I shake hands. I help people. No, no, that doesn't work. What other audio do we have from this week? Let's see. Is there anything in here that we...
Starting point is 00:26:39 Anything else is... Alyssa Milano's two. You can't really hear the... Yeah, is there... Is there... What was from... Let's see. How about the green...
Starting point is 00:26:51 The green real deal? Is that? How about the Julian Castro? He's talking about the border crisis. This is BS. Okay, go ahead. Extrad it. The feeling from this administration is that we are in a full-blown crisis and that they are overwhelmed by it.
Starting point is 00:27:06 How do you think? I don't know. I don't believe their narrative. I don't believe the BS that women and children who are fleeing dangerous circumstances present a national security threat to this country. We should put all of Congress on helium. And then you could just, it doesn't matter what they said. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:27:26 The pro-arrating would definitely go up from what is it? Oh, yeah. Hey, how about the five days away from fundamental transformation? Can you get that for me? The Barack Obama clip from 2008. It wouldn't have been so scary if he would have sounded like he was on helium. Do you have it, Sarah? We played it.
Starting point is 00:27:45 He played it yesterday. And you can find even the Barack knows. Barack knows. what we're going to have to do is change our traditions. We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America. I mean, really, it's just Louis Farrak. I don't know. I think we should just be playing Lewis Farrakhan.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I don't know that any of these other ones work. It should just be Lewis Farrakhan Helium Thursday. How about the view hosts? From yesterday? Yeah, give me something from the view. It might be just Louis Farrakhan. Joe is a hand on Conning off. Yeah, but no one, I've never heard anyone.
Starting point is 00:28:23 And she says she felt violated, and I have to take her out of word. But it wouldn't be nice if she had turned him and said, you know what, Jay? I don't really like this. Please don't do this. Or, Mr. Vice President, I'm not really comfortable with it. Something, because he's standing right there. I don't think it rises to the point what we've been listening to. And probably the rest of these people.
Starting point is 00:28:44 It just doesn't look like that. When you're looking at Joy Behar and you're hearing that voice, it's pretty good. It's a much better voice than her normal speaking voice. She's a little closer to her actual name of. joy. You know, play the Lewis Farrakhan one more time. God does not love this world. God never sent Jesus to die for this world.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Jesus died because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of the civilization. of the Jews. I do love the... That's right. Preach on. He never was on no cross. There was no cavalry for that Jesus. One Saturday morning,
Starting point is 00:29:41 our Savior taught us. When he found out he was 2,000 years too soon to end the civilization of the Jews, he decided that he would give you Life for the truth that he taught that his name would live.
Starting point is 00:30:02 What on earth? I can't even know. But better on helium. Better on helium. It's way better on helium. I like the fact at some point when he goes, when he's 2,000 years too soon and there's that pause and there's people in the crowd going, yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Like, do they know where he's going? Because I had no idea where he's going on that. Like, they actually like... Well, I mean, I don't think that's... I don't think those speeches are for rookies. Okay. I mean, I don't think... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:23 I don't think you have, you know, usual people. like you, you, me, or, you know, Bill from Ohio that's just kind of sitting in there, like, I didn't see that coming. I had no idea. It was a thrill ride. The whole speech was a thrill while. A roller coaster of emotions. As someone who attended Yale's Divinity School, did, like, what is he even saying?
Starting point is 00:30:45 He's saying that Jesus showed up, I didn't know. He was 2,000 years too soon to end the civilization of the Jews, which was his real goal. And so he decided instead to kill himself basically, not on the cross somewhere else, to say that his name would live on so that eventually we would end the civilization of the Jews. So I can't speak for the Yale Divinity School because I did not go to the Yale Divinity School. I thought you did. No, no, no, no. I intentionally went and took it through history. I wanted to learn the historic part of it, not the divinity school's, you know, smoke and jive on.
Starting point is 00:31:23 comment. I wanted to, I wanted to hear from a, you know, a professor of history that, of course, had no smoke, no, jive. No, no, all facts. But anyway, uh, I think if I may, um, I'm having a hard time even figuring out where he might find that in any scripture. Yeah. That Jew was, I mean, I don't, I mean, the scriptures of Bob. Right. Bob the, Bob the, the, uh, the, the, uh, the, the, uh, apostle on the bench, you know, he was the, he was like, if Peter is sick or whatever say, he's like, I don't know, get Bob. The back up the alternate. He's the alternate apostle.
Starting point is 00:32:02 Even I think Bob, the alternate apostle, uh, I don't even think you could find anything close to that there. Yeah, that one's, uh, I can't, because I can't even follow it. Do you know, Pat? No, no, I don't. I'm not sure. I'm trying to follow. I'm trying to follow even.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Who wants to believe in a God that. doesn't love the world. And doesn't that go against even the Koran? I think, don't they believe Allah does love the world? Or maybe not, huh? So, uh, I don't know. I, because I don't know any scripture where it says God does not love the world. In fact, that God so loved the world that he said is his only begotten son.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah. It's a minor kink in the hose there. Yeah. It is. But you know, it's amazing. Can you imagine, I had people taking full page ads out in the New York Times saying
Starting point is 00:33:02 that I was an anti-Semite and I had to be stopped. Okay. Remember that? Yeah. Okay. He still has his Twitter feed. Nobody's even saying anything about this. That's incredible.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Nobody is saying anything. Can you imagine if I would have got up and said, you know, Jesus, he failed in his mission. He was sent to wipe out the Jews. and he couldn't do it so he decided kill me or I'm going to kill myself I mean that's basically what he's saying can you imagine saying that yeah any other person saying that and it's okay and it's okay I'm surprised too like you know because Twitter is obviously banned a bunch of conservatives over the years they've had this is the talking point of every conservative every time it happens at some point you'd think they'd just be like all right just take it off so we don't have to hear that
Starting point is 00:33:49 point again I mean it's Alex Jones You say Alex Jones is horrible. Okay, I agree with you. I don't think he should be taken off, but you did. Has he ever said anything worse than that? I don't think so. I mean, I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Saying the Jews should be wiped out now. Yeah, and he's also saying that our government is killing children in school houses, you know, to take away our guns. I mean, it's, yeah, I mean. But he's not calling for the extermination of an entire people. No, no, that's, that's pretty bad.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Very good, very good. Very good. Only made a few that really have. done that. Yeah. You know their names. Yeah. One of them was not Bob, the alternative apostle.
Starting point is 00:34:30 No, but we do know them usually only by one name. Serial killers get all three names. You know what I mean? Genocidal maniacs get one. Get one. Stalin. Mao. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Adolf. Ted. I mean, you get, you get one name. You graduate. I think Louis. I think he's graduated. Farrakhan. or Louis.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Although Louis's not so scary. No, it's not. I mean, Farrakhan is just him at this point. I mean, if your last name is Farrakhan, you've got to be considering a change at this point. Because my wife is on the radio, as you guys know, and she, her name is Lisa Page on the air. And ever since this scandal starts happening with the FBI, and there's a woman named Lisa Page who's in the middle of this thing, texting back and forth about how to ruin the Trump administration. from the inside. And I told her at one point, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:35:25 there is a scenario here where this story gets so big, you have to abandon your name. Like, this is not, you can't be, if her name was Monica Lewinsky, she would have had to have changed her name. Right.
Starting point is 00:35:36 And I think if you're, if your last name is Farrakhan at this point, just, you know, you just go to Smith. You just go to a bag and just pull the trigger. You know that there were, there were Hitler's around the world. That had nothing to do.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Oh, yeah. It might have been so anti-Hitler, and they were like, oh, geez. Yeah, like Steve. Hitler. Yeah. He's really regretting.
Starting point is 00:35:55 He's like, oh, come on. I love the Jews. They're fantastic. At least he's, I mean, honey, honey, honey, honey. I know you married into the name, at least, but it could be worse. He could be gassing kids and people. Wait, what? Wait, hold it.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Oh, come on. Jeez, man. Thanks so much, Pat. Pat Gray Unleashed. You can hear his live recording of the podcast every day on the Blaze Radio. And you can listen to it anytime whenever you're looking for a podcast to listen to. It's very funny. All right, relief factor.

Every once in a while you take a wrong step, you know, and something hurts. And it's not, I'm not at that point where it happens every day. But every once in a while, you get, you get that thing where you step the wrong way and then you're limping for two weeks for no reason.
Starting point is 00:37:08 And then you think maybe I should eat less pancakes. You know, whatever? No. No. No, that's not the solution. No. No, you think I look like this because I stopped? I gave up.
Starting point is 00:37:18 I quit on pancakes. I do not think that. That's right. Damn right. Anyway, Americans spend over 2,000 years to combat their pain. $2,000. 66% think they're going to have to live in pain for the rest of their life. You don't have to live in pain for the rest of your life.

From Minister Louis Farrakhan. Well, hang on.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Let me ease you out, you know, just in case you haven't heard yet. What? Hey, you know, the rapper, Nipsey Hustle? Yeah, one of my favorites. Yeah. He's sick. Oh, my gosh. What's going on with him?
Starting point is 00:38:47 He's dead. Oh, no. Okay. Thank you for bringing for that to me very slowly. All right. Well, I didn't want to just take it by surprise. Wait a minute. He's dead.
Starting point is 00:38:55 So here's the latest from Louis Farrakhan. We're gathering as much information as we can on the passing of our brother Nipsey Hustle. But the nation of Islam mourns the loss of this great brother. His death as well as his life had so much meaning to it for us and for unborn generations. We thank Allah that his life came this way from God and touched our lives. Now listen to this. We advise the community not to react to rumors or false information. to make us in our time of grief and sadness turn on one another.
Starting point is 00:39:26 A bigger hand than the hand of the man who pulled the trigger is behind it all. More I will say in the future. Now, let me ask you something. We know it's not Donald Trump. A bigger hand. Only two. No, a bigger hand than the hand of the man who pulled the man who pulled the trigger. So now Donald Trump may have been the trigger man, because he apparently.
Starting point is 00:39:51 has small hands, at least in comparison to the guy who was really behind it. I think it may be, he may be making a point about a Jewish conspiracy. I'm going to go out, you guess. No way. Perhaps the Jews came together to go kill that rapper Nipsey Hustle because that was an important part of their agenda, apparently. Man. We'll have to dig into that one.
Starting point is 00:40:11 It'd be just like the Jews to do that to Nipsey Hustle, wouldn't it? Or I don't know. I have no idea. I don't even know who Nipsey Hustle is, but I still mourn his. loss deeply and powerfully. I can't wait to hear the theory on who is behind it all from Lewis Farrakom. I'll keep watching Twitter. Tell you about our sponsor.
Starting point is 00:40:34 A spotlight is unplanned the movie. It has gotten a rated R rating. However, I will tell you this. I don't know if you saw this, but Utah did double the screen amounts than any other state in the union, which is phenomenal because those people don't see rated our movies, and that is the action that I want you to take. This was the MPAA trying to get you to not take your teenage daughters and sons to unplanned. Take them.
Starting point is 00:41:08 It is more critical than ever before that our kids know that this is murder. This is not a preachy movie. It's actually a really kind of good movie. You'll leave feeling really uplifted. You'll feel hopeful in the end. It's not a dirty. is not like one of those movies. I've got to go see it.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Take your kids to see Unplanned. In theaters now, unplannedfilm.com. That's unplannedfilm.com. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembeck program. There's a lot of talk about Joe Biden today on being creepy Uncle Joe. Stuff we all know. Does that disqualify him?
Starting point is 00:41:52 No, I mean, not unless there's something more than I just felt creeped out by it, because, I mean, I felt creeped out about Joe Biden for a long time, but that shouldn't be a block for him serving unless there's actually evidence he did something. There is evidence that he did something far worse than smelling somebody's hair. We get to that in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck program. So, you know, I'm somebody who has bought and sold a billion houses and usually never at a profit because I'm in radio and we move around an awful lot
Starting point is 00:42:28 or we used to move around a lot. And I've always just kind of open up the phone book or ask somebody, you know, a good real estate agent. And that's the way you find your real estate agent. That is not a good way to find your real estate agent. I bought and sold houses for so long, and I finally got so frustrated that I'm like, okay, there's got to be a better way. Well, I happen to start doing some work with this group of real estate agents.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Every year, the Wall Street Journal puts out a list of the 500 best agents all across the country. So I started doing work with these guys this years ago, maybe eight years, nine years ago. And I'm talking to them and I'm like, so what makes a good real estate agent? I mean, what's the, you know, I just, I just, you know, get a friend or whatever. And they're like, okay, no, Glenn, it's, it's really not that complex, but there's really three things they have to do. Well, we went and searched for those people who understand what it takes to be a real great real estate agent. somebody who's on or going to be on that list of the 500 best. Real estate agents,
Starting point is 00:43:34 I trust.com. I started this just to be able to connect you with somebody in your area that will sell your home. Or there's nothing worse than buying a new home and then not knowing what the area is you should be living in, the right schools, et cetera, et cetera, especially now where we're so polarized, there's nothing worse than getting a real estate agent in town. you're like, okay, don't say anything because I don't know where this person stands. This is the, all these real estate agents have been vetted by my staff personally, so we know they have your values.
Starting point is 00:44:06 They're all fans of the show, et cetera, et cetera, and they have the same values that you have. So you can trust them. Real estate agents, I trust.com. That's real estate agents. itrust.com. Peter Switzer, he is the producer of the creepy line, which is a movie everyone needs to see. He is also the, author of Secret Empires, which has come out in paperback. And Peter, I didn't think we would have
Starting point is 00:44:39 you on the air so quickly, but there is another piece of the story you started telling us last week that has dropped, and we'll get into that. First, welcome to the show. And can you tell us why you say that Joe Biden is the most corrupt vice president in history? Great to be on with you, Glenn. Yeah, I think the evidence is overwhelming. And all you have to do is look at his son's financial transactions and specifically financial accounts that he's tied to. And Glenn, I'd be happy to provide a copy of this for you and you could share it with your listeners. But all you need to do is look at the financial records from the Morgan Stanley account that involves his son, Hunter Biden. And what it shows is while his father was vice president,
Starting point is 00:45:31 his son is cashing in. He's cashing in with our rivals and adversaries, the Chinese government. He's cashing in with other countries that are rife with corruption like Ukraine. He's cashing in with payments from corrupt oligarchs in Kazakhstan, one involving the son of the former prime minister there. And he's cashing in from unknown mysterious sources. This bank account shows a deposit of $1.2 million from this sort of alphabet LLC that nobody can trace, out of a small Swiss bank a bank called BSI, which has been implicated in money laundering in 10 different countries. And this is all happening, Glenn, while Joe Biden, according to Barack Obama, was
Starting point is 00:46:21 vice president's countries. So it's self-enrichment at the highest level, and it involves, in the case of the Chinese government, actually a political, powerful rival to us that I would argue presents a much bigger challenge to our future than Russia does. Russia is a declining power demographically and in terms of its industrial might. China is rising and threatening the United States and Hunter Biden was cashing in from the Chinese government itself. Okay, so the reason why one of the guys who was investigated during this Trump thing, the reason why he went to jail is because he was involved in Ukrainian politics. And Ukrainian politics is really dirty.
Starting point is 00:47:10 Lots of people on the take, lots of people on the take from Russia. And he wasn't claiming any of this money. What's happening now, and I don't, do you know John Solomon? Yes, I do. I know John well. John is a terrific reporter. He was at the Associated Press, the Washington Post. He's now at the Hill.
Starting point is 00:47:28 He's terrific, and I talk to him all the time. He's very, very good. All right. So he, like you said, worked for the Washington Post, the Associated Press. When he went over, he's the executive vice president at the Hill. for him to publish because of the Clinton camp, the Clinton camp, they put the pressure on the hill to make sure that all of his stories are opinion and not filed his stories. Can you tell me?
Starting point is 00:47:56 It's remarkable. I don't know the full ins and outs, and John is not one that would share anything like that with me. But what is very clear is that John does amazing reporting. And on Ukraine, Glenn, what he has shown quite clearly is the prosecutor general in Ukraine during the tenure when Joe Biden was vice president was a guy named Shoken. And Joe Biden bragged after he left the vice presidency that he got Shokin fired. Do you know anything about Shokin? I'm going to play the audio here in a second. But I want you to set the scene.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Who is this guy? What do you know about him? What do you know he was working on? Prosecutor General, and as in the case in a lot of situation in Ukraine, you know, you don't quite know who is straight and who is on the take. But Shokin was appointed by the reformist government by Poroshenko, who Biden was friends with. Biden claimed publicly that he didn't like Shokin because Shokin was not investigating and pursuing corruption cases enough. And so he brags about getting him fired. What Joe Biden doesn't say is that Shokin was investigating his son at the time.
Starting point is 00:49:12 And this is where it takes an interesting twist, Glenn. So Shokin does get fired because Joe Biden tells Poroshenko, the president of Ukraine, I'm going to withhold a billion dollars in loan guarantees unless you fire Shokin. And then his successor gets appointed a guy named Lushenko, and Joe Biden gives Lushenko his imprint and says, this guy is a solid choice. Here's the problem for Joe Biden. Lutsenko is now saying he wants to reopen the investigation into Joe Biden's son.
Starting point is 00:49:47 So the firing of token. So hang on just a second. This was not an investigation into the company that he had ties to. This was an investigation on Joe Biden's son? Yes, it was on both. It was on both. And here's what's important to know. And I know this is very complicated.
Starting point is 00:50:04 and there are lots of names. The company in question is called Burisma, and it was this sort of energy company in Ukraine. Well, Burisma was started by, as can only happen in the Ukraine, was started by the minister for energy at the time, Lochevsky. Lochevsky was aligned with Yanukovych, who's the pro-Russian minister.
Starting point is 00:50:29 So get your hands around this. Hunter Biden, the vice president of the United States, son is being paid millions of dollars by a corrupt energy minister who worked for the pro-Russian leader in Ukraine. It's a remarkable string of relationships. And what Shokin and now Lutsenko want to investigate is, first of all, Burisma, the company, because there's all kinds of allegations of money laundering and corruption. But they, second of all, explicitly, back in 2014 and 2015, were investigating a hunter-beckymp.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Biden and Burisma. And now the new prosecutor general wants to reopen that case and wants to share that file information with the current U.S. Attorney General William Barr. Okay. It's extraordinary. Manafort went to jail for the same connections with the same people that were locked in with the former Soviets, right? Right.
Starting point is 00:51:32 That's right. He was lobbying illegally for Yanukovych. Right. So we know this has happened before. We know that people went to jail. I knew about Manafort, you know, years before he went to jail. We had all of that stuff was out, kind of like this is with Joe Biden's son. But nobody covered it until Manafort went to work for Trump.
Starting point is 00:51:59 So we know what that's all about because you should have. that guy should have been in jail long ago. That's right. And by the way, working with Manafort for Yanukovych and these Yanukovych-related entities were a guy named Tony Podesta, John Podesta's brother, who's a lobbyist, and Greg Craig, who was the former White House counsel in the Obama White House, who was facing charges in New York as well. All three were working for Yanukovych or Yanukovych-linked entities. So, yes, this goes very deep, and it's very wide. spread, and now you have the vice president's son wrapped up in this. At the time when Joe Biden,
Starting point is 00:52:40 he could elevate his thumb or he could give thumbs down and determine whether the Ukrainian government was going to get, you know, more than a billion dollars in aid. It was his call. Barack Obama said that. The European nation said that. He was the point person, and his son was getting rich while his father was doing that. Okay. Let me play the audio of what we have Joe Biden saying at a group of, you know, foreign relations people. And he's bragging about getting this guy fired. Listen. I'm desperately concerned about the backsliding on the part of Kiev in terms of corruption. They made, I mean, I'll give you one concrete example.
Starting point is 00:53:28 I was not I, I, but it just happened to be that was the assignment I got. I got all the good ones. And so I got Ukraine. And I remember going over convincing our team, or others to convincing that we should be providing for loan guarantees. And I went over, I guess, the 12th, 13th time to Kiev, and I was supposed to announce that there was another billion-dollar loan guarantee. And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yotsen, U.S. that they would take action against the state prosecutor, and they didn't. So they said, they were walking out to press conference.
Starting point is 00:54:08 I said, no, I said, I'm not going to, we're not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority. You're not the president. The president said, I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion. I'm going to be leaving here, and I think it was, what, six hours? I looked at, I said, I'm leaving it six hours.
Starting point is 00:54:26 If the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. Oh, son of a bitch. got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time. At the time. Okay. Interesting. We're going to go back into that here in just a second. With Peter Swizer, he is the author of Secret Empires. And he talks a lot about Joe Biden and the corruption of Joe Biden. All right. Back in one minute. Not long ago, Tanya and I changed the window coverings in our bedroom. one Saturday morning, Tanya and I,

Starting point is 00:56:39 just came out in paperback, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Peter Swizer is on with us. Peter, you brought up a name that I thought was interesting. Tony Podesta. Yeah. Tony's the guy who had this big firm that was involved with the, what was it, the Focus GPS? Fusion GPS. Fusion GPS.
Starting point is 00:57:05 And his firm was involved. as soon as that story broke, he quit, shut it all down, and walked away. And I thought, wow, what was that all about? Manafort's mistake was he elevated himself. He could have gotten away with it if he wouldn't have gone right into the spotlight and said, dig me. Is that what Tony did the, he did the opposite, do you think? What happened to Tony Podesta?
Starting point is 00:57:36 That's a great question. Yes, and I think you make a very important point here, and that is that a lot of this stuff that has gone on that now Manafort has been charged with. And by the way, I believe should have been charged with a while ago, involved something called the Foreign Agents Registration Act or Farrah. And this is a law that the Department of Justice enforces, and it essentially says if you are a lobbyist or somebody in the United States and you are representing a warrant, working for a foreign government or a foreign government-connected entity, you are required to file very detailed reports with the Department of Justice, and anybody out there in the audience can look up fair and you can look at filings. And so if you're doing work for the Ukrainian government or a company connected to the Ukrainian government, you are to describe how much you're being paid
Starting point is 00:58:28 and exactly who you're meeting with, including journalists, because you're doing the bidding for a foreign government. Well, Paul Manafort was brought up on failing to file Farah reports, which he didn't do. Interestingly enough, when Paul Manafort became under investigation, what did Tony Podest in his firm do? They retroactively filed 17 forms with Farah declaring their work for foreign entities. I mean, in other words, they hadn't been doing this. They realized that the game was up for Manafort, that he was in the gun sites. So they tried to cover their tracks by filing these 17 Farah reports on other foreign government work. And this is one of the big unwritten rules or secrets of lobbying Washington, D.C. People have been skirting these rules for
Starting point is 00:59:19 years. So Tony Podesta was involved in this. There were other lobbying firms, firms that are on the Republican side, firms that are on the Democrat side. And it's a huge problem. Ferra has not been enforced. And my hope is that one of the things that comes out of the Maniford case is that some of these lobbyists will be looking over their shoulder and saying, we better be filing those Farrow reports because otherwise we could end up in somebody's gun sites. So here's the problem, as I see it with this Joe Biden case, is if it is widespread that this is happening, nobody wants this to be a story. Everybody wants this to go away. That's exactly right. And here's the other thing. I mean, you've got to give grudgingly the Biden some credit because what they did was, you know, Hunter Biden will claim he's not doing any work for a foreign government. He's just on the payroll of a highly corrupt energy company that is controlled by some very nasty oligarchs. Same thing in China.
Starting point is 01:00:24 But what does he do? That's the good question. And it is impossible. for me to believe, first of all, that his father didn't know about this. We know, and I talk about this in secret empires, that they had meetings in the White House based on White House visitor logs. We know in the case of China that Hunter Biden actually flew with his dad on Air Force, too, to close that billion-dollar private equity deal with the Chinese government. And what Hunter Biden would say is, well, I'm not representing the Chinese government. I'm just doing an equity deal with them. The problem is, like with the Ukrainian deal, everybody knows. the gig is up because he has no background in private equity. He has no background in
Starting point is 01:01:04 Ukraine. He has no background in energy policy. This is a payoff clear, and there's no other plausible explanation as to why he's getting paid. And what would the payoff be for? What does what does Burisma need from us? Well, I think Burisma, for example, was looking for loans and grants from the United States that were designed to help Ukraine become an independent. And the reason was, of course, that they were very dependent on Russian national gas. I think it's a great idea to help make them energy independent. But where that money went, who got those loans and grants, would be determined by the United States. And again, Joe Biden, the buck stopped with Joe Biden as it related to U.S. policy towards Ukraine.
Starting point is 01:01:50 The second thing, I think, is that, you know, foreign governments kind of have a retainer model. It may not be an exact quid pro quo where we're going to pay you. You need to do this for us. It gives you access, and if you can go to the vice president's son, to whom he admits he's very, very close to, they travel together all the time, and you need him to whisper something into his ear, that has enormous value. And it's not a quid pro quo, but as far as I'm concerned, it is still a bribe because you are paying for access and you are paying for benefits.
Starting point is 01:02:25 policies. Peter is always good to talk to you. Thank you so much. We're going to be following this story because I think this is, forget about his smelling hair. This is the real problem with Joe Biden corruption. It seems to the bone and somebody needs to investigate it. You can find all of this information in secret empires. It's a paperback out now by Peter Switzer. More next hour with one of the guys who broke the latest in this story. My Patriot Supply would like to remind you that the time to prepare yourself is not during an emergency. The time to prepare yourself is right now, if you're not having an emergency, if you're not in the floodplains and the floodwaters.
Starting point is 01:03:16 Yeah, it's probably a good idea. Maybe beforehand. It's a lot harder to order things on the internet when your home is underwater. Those are poor people. I mean, I just, there's so many people affected by this. Listen, if you've ever been affected by a huge natural disaster, you know that the last thing you have money for or even think of is, where am I going to get food? How am I going to pay for this? How am I going to pay for, you know, the hotel room, let alone having everybody go to eat?
Starting point is 01:03:40 You need at least a three-day supply. My Patriot supply is there. A food storage plan, it really just starts, you know, one bite at a time. Get a two-week food kit.

Starting point is 01:04:21 And there's a couple of things I want to chat with you about. First of all, if you have or know of a student, or if it's you, that is between the ages of 18 and 25, we are now looking and taking applications for our leadership program for the year. We need more Abraham Lincoln's. We need more George Washington's. We need people who understand who we are, how we got here, why we put. put these things in place and understand really divine providence as well. Now, we have had people who have come who have tried to prove us wrong, and they were, they say they were atheist, but I think they were probably agnostic, that left testifying
Starting point is 01:05:12 of the truth of the divine providence of this land. We've had amazing things happen. If you're coming in with a good, solid foundation, you're going to leave a, uh, an absolute leader. If you are kind of, you're still going to leave a leader. We've seen changes in people. It's amazing. 18 to 25 years old, we let you handle the original documents.
Starting point is 01:05:37 We have class for you every day, all day long. I think it lasts a week. May it last two weeks? It's a week or two weeks? I can't remember. Anyway, if you know somebody, it's two weeks. It says here. If you know somebody, we are looking.
Starting point is 01:05:53 for the brightest civic-minded students. It's an immersive leadership training program. 18 to 25 years old, get ready to question boldly, think critically. And if you want to make a positive impact in the nation and you just need some fortification, go to mercury one.org slash LPT leadership program training. I think it is. Yeah, leadership training program. So that should be the opposite way.
Starting point is 01:06:20 Anyway, just go to Mercury 1 and just look for the training program. Or you can call 81744-4-1-60-44. Not everybody who applies gets in. There is a screening process, but we would love to have you. Mercury1.org slash L-TP. One other thing. People have asked me for a long time. Glenn, love the chalkboards.
Starting point is 01:06:46 When are you going to start connecting the dots again? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Why aren't you connecting the dots? They've asked me that since I left Fox. I haven't had anything to connect. You knew the story. You knew tides. You knew all of these things.
Starting point is 01:06:59 I will tell you that things have changed. For instance, Soros is now at the bottom 10 of the biggest people that donate for the left. George Soros is no longer the kingpin. He is still giving a lot of money. But there are a whole new set of people. when you see the connections between care, the Muslim Brotherhood and Congress now, when you see the socialist and the radicals around, it's a new crop. That's why they're rejecting Obama just recently.
Starting point is 01:07:31 It's a whole new crop. These guys are much more radical than the Van Jones were. Van Jones looks like a pussycat compared to these guys. And how do I know that? Because Van Jones is on the out. They don't like Van Jones or Barack Obama. they don't think they went far enough. They weren't radical enough.
Starting point is 01:07:51 I need your help. And the way you can help is subscribe to Blaze TV. Go to blazTV.com slash back. You can grab a membership. Please use the code word, the promo code GLENN, Glenn. But everything that's coming in, if you do the code word, Glenn, it's going right into us being able to do the research next week. We've been working now for a while, and next week, we hope to have a show for you that exposes Joe Biden for what he really is and shows you with all of the facts, all of the paperwork, all of the details, all buttoned up for you. That'll be happening next, I think, Thursday, only on Blaze TV, and we need your support.
Starting point is 01:08:42 blazTV.com. Blase TV.com slash glen. Promocode Glenn. Just remember it's my first name. We're on a first name basis. promo code Glenn. All right. Yesterday, Alyssa Milano was still in Georgia on this abortion bill.
Starting point is 01:09:00 And what this abortion bill is is a heartbeat bill. When you have CPR, somebody comes up and you're trying to see if they're alive or dead, what is the first thing that people do? They usually check for a heart. or pulse? They check for a pulse. Why? Because that usually indicates whether you're alive or dead.
Starting point is 01:09:19 Correct. Right. So that means you're alive, you have life in you, or you're dead. Why is it that we don't claim something is alive in the womb when there's a heartbeat? That is what Georgia is adopting is the heartbeat law. And it means if there's a heartbeat, that's life. I think that's perfectly reasonable, perfectly reasonable. Now, that means that, what is it, six weeks, eight weeks that you start to get a heartbeat,
Starting point is 01:09:53 that the baby has a heartbeat, that brings it way, way, way back to first trimester. Yeah, about five weeks. Five weeks. So Alyssa Milano is saying, you know, how dare the evil state of Georgia do this? And if they do, we're taking all of our Hollywood money. Well, first of all, Alyssa Milano? Oh, yeah. I mean, she may not work in Georgia anymore.
Starting point is 01:10:22 Think about the devastation to that state if Alyssa can't. Wasn't she in like in a full house the last thing she did? I think you're thinking of who's the boss. Who's the boss? Yes. Yeah, she was in. Tony Danza. Tony Danza.
Starting point is 01:10:36 Yep. Now, imagine Tony Danza. And I like Tony. He's a nice guy. But imagine Tony Danza going into any state. Rhode Island. and saying, I tell you what, nobody's going to work here. You listen to the Danza.
Starting point is 01:10:49 I'm not doing a tap dance now. You listen to Danza. No one's going to be working in New Jersey or in Rhode Island as long as the dancer says, no go. Can you imagine how laughable that would be? Well, you can call it laughable all you want, but I can tell you this, that Georgia will no longer have any possibility of getting. a sequel to Beverly Hills Chihuahua. Shut up.
Starting point is 01:11:17 That will not happen. Kik Botowski Suburban Daredevil. That's not going to happen. That's not going to happen in Georgia after this. Holy cow. If you remember, of course, the classic My Girlfriend's Boyfriend. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Now, people are like, well, when do we get my girlfriend's boyfriend, two in Georgia, starring Alyssa Milana? Well, you're not getting it. Okay. So you can think whatever happened at the end of that movie is now just the end. We don't even get to know what happened with the girlfriend or the boyfriend or the girlfriend's boyfriend.
Starting point is 01:11:50 I'm sorry. I thought those were all filmed in Georgia. This is. These are all Melissa Alano. Alano, Milano, whatever. Not even close to any of the names, but yes, Alyssa Milano.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Yes. Her starring vehicles in recent history. Is she responsible for the cookies? Which cookies? The Milano cookies? Yes. I don't think there's a relationship there. I seriously don't care about her opinion.
Starting point is 01:12:12 And I don't think any. anybody in Georgia does. First of all, Alyssa, you're not making the calls for Hollywood. I don't know if you know that. And, quite honestly. And indicated by the fact that she doesn't have jobs. Right. Like, if she was making the calls for Hollywood, likely, she would be
Starting point is 01:12:27 able to be employed. Right. And it's not like, you know, Alyssa, you know, it's not like you're leaving something, you know, like, I'm dedicating my life to this. I am. You're not giving anything up. No one's hiring you. Right. It's this or Waffle House. And Waffle House would go, oh, is
Starting point is 01:12:43 that the woman from a full house and you go no no no you're thinking of three's company and then somebody else would go no it's who's the boss or two's the boss or something like that and be like i don't remember which we're not hiring her right she's obnoxious it's like so it's not like she's giving up a lot right if you were to say you will do what i want or i will not enter the mr universe pageant this year likely there's not a lot of effect there no now if alissa said uh you pass this bill and I'm going to move here and I'm just going to protest all the time in front of, you know, your house and your job and everybody. And I'm not really protesting.
Starting point is 01:13:25 I'm just talking to people. I'm just being me. I'm just going to live here because I love it. Then I think she'd have a chance of turning this around. I think that's possible. Yeah. People would be like, I don't want Elizabeth. This is the problem with the left.
Starting point is 01:13:37 They don't understand incentives. Right. You got to craft the correct incentive. not a merit kind of based system. Right, which is not, you know, hey, the person you find really annoying is not going to come anymore. It's not a good incentive. Right. Right.
Starting point is 01:13:52 This is a reason for Georgia to pass these bills. Even if they don't believe abortion is murder, they're just going to be like, look, I don't care. Just pass it. She won't come anymore. Here's a deal. You know why the walking dead? You know why people do it in Georgia? You know why they make movies?
Starting point is 01:14:05 Not because they love Georgia or because, oh, no, it's the film capital of the world. because of the tax incentives. That's why. Money. Let me ask you this. Stu. Which is interesting, by the way, if you think about it from the left wing perspective, right?
Starting point is 01:14:19 Like, we're not, isn't that the exact thing they're not supposed to do? Look for better tax breaks by going to other places? These millionaire and billionaire Hollywood studio owners are going, these millionaire actors and actresses are going to Georgia to save money on production costs? I mean, what about the taxes? What about the people that need to be helped? It's your patriarch duty.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Yeah. So it's not, it's not them. And let me ask you this. Stu, if I said to you 15 years ago, you know what, I'm going to buy the Paramount lot in Texas. Not a chance of that. Right. You know what just this one building was supposedly worth, right? Okay.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Anywhere close to what I bought it for? No. I mean, anywhere even in the same neighbor, same continent. No. No. Got a good deal. I own the Paramount Movie Studio lot in Texas. How?
Starting point is 01:15:16 Well, I almost got it for my good looks and you've seen me. The reason why is because Texas used to have great tax incentives for making movies here. And so this room we're in, Silkwood, Born on the Fourth of July, JFK, every episode of Barney, prison break from HBO, you name it. all of the Chuck, Chuck Norris, Walker, Texas Ranger, all of them filmed right here in this room. How did I get this for a stupid radio show and a network that's on internet? Because the tax incentives went away. And you know where they went? Places like Louisiana, where they're like, oh, if we lower the taxes, we'll get movies made here and we'll create some jobs here.
Starting point is 01:16:07 Oh, really? Do you think that the people in Hollywood were like, you know what? I had this duck call and I was out hunting. And I looked at that duck call and I wonder, who made this duck call? So we've been looking into it. No. Somebody said, we get great tax incentives if we do a show in Louisiana, go find something. That's how Duck Dynasty was made.
Starting point is 01:16:31 The reason why, you know what, I don't think anybody will believe zombies unless we film it. In the place where everybody, when I say, zombies, what do you think? Atlanta, Georgia, right? Right. No. No. Tax incentives. So for her to say, we're not going to film any movies here.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Bull crap. Bull crap. Yeah, they'll do it if they, I mean, look, of course they will. And by the way, I just want you to know, ever since Hollywood left, Texas is gone, it's gone to the dogs. There's, there's, it's, it's crazy here. It's crazy. There's no money. There's no jobs anywhere. Texas is just struggling so much. Let me tell you the truth. Texas is better off without Hollywood. I would really like to disinvite everyone who is moving from California because you screwed that state up. If you knew, if you know what lost your job and cost your major houses cost so much. And believe me, it ain't the sunshine, Jack.
Starting point is 01:17:34 if you want to know why you can no longer work in California, you can't stand it and you know it's because, or I voted like a moron, then maybe you can move to Texas. But if you're bringing all that crap with you, Alyssa, keep it. We don't want it. But do you want buying the cow too?
Starting point is 01:17:58 Or, or Dynotopia Quest for the Ruby Sunstone. Oh my gosh. Or reinvent. We're reinventing the wheelers too, which would be re-reinventing the wheelers. What was the one with a cow? What was it? Buying the cow. Buying the cow.
Starting point is 01:18:13 Now, if she gets really desperate, she's going to do the X-rated version, milk for free. So, anyway, careers seem to work. It really does. Okay, here we go. Relief factor. If you're in constant pain, I know, you're not alone. And you don't have to live that way. If you've gotten to the point where you're like, it's just, I know, this is the way it's going to be.
Starting point is 01:18:32 Don't, don't, don't think that way. Don't think that way. you are in control of your body. You can change things, but it requires a few things. And one, it requires getting rid of inflammation in your body. That is the leading source of pain. Well, that in like, you know, a giant steel rod going through your chest. That also could be a main cause of pain.
Starting point is 01:18:54 If it's not the steel rod, it might be inflammation. 70% of the people who take relief factor, 70% of them order month after month after month because it works.

Starting point is 01:19:35 where Akazio Cortez is just cute. She's like a puppy dog. He's like, look at you so cute. You know what puppy dogs are like, look at you, look at you trying to eat the shoe. There's not food. Yeah. You're not going to be able to get the treat in the center of that toy.
Starting point is 01:19:51 Yeah. Because it's specifically designed that you can't get to it. You don't know that. You don't know that. You don't know that I'm calling you stupid right now because you're so stupid. But look how cute you are. Now, Alyssa Milano is no, she does not have a, I would say, the informational
Starting point is 01:20:04 capabilities of, you know, a normal sized human. Yes. I mean, she's not smart. Let's put it that way. Right. However, she's probably smarter than a Casio-Cortez. Well, she at least occasionally knows something about something. Casio-Cortez, but she's so cute when she does it. Is there something about it like a cat
Starting point is 01:20:23 when you have like the, you know, the laser and you put on everyone like, who's got to get the mouse? Get the mouse! And you know, there is no mouse. But the cat think is the mouse. Get it. Go get it. Go get. Where did it go? Where did it go? So it's kind of fun. Watching Agacio Cortez. Maybe that's, maybe that's just me. But it's so cute. Look at you and your green job thing. Yeah, you didn't. And the funniest, cutest part of it is when we're going to all be spending, you know, $30 trillion on all of our crazy ideas.
Starting point is 01:20:55 It's up to her. It's the whole time it's going to be like, you think you can get the mouse. Get a mouse. Yes. You never get. There is no mouse.

The fusion of entertainment and is the Glembach program. There is less of concern with me of where Joe Biden's hands are when you can see them. Yes, they appear to be cupping the breast area. But is it worse that his hands when they disappear, they end up in other people's pockets like China, Ukraine? And it's not his hands. watch the hands of his son.
Starting point is 01:23:08 There's a story that is being told now that has all of the details all buttoned up. Nobody seems to want to cover this. And it's much more important than, you know, being hands on. We go to John Solomon to tell you about Biden's Ukrainian nightmare. We go there in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck program. Hey, you know who's buying gold right now? Massive amounts.
Starting point is 01:23:39 In fact, I think it's Russia is buying more gold than their mines can mine. China is doing the same. China is not just buying gold. They're buying up gold mines all over the world. They're buying gold. And they're buying it fast and furious. You know who's selling their gold right now? Venezuela.
Starting point is 01:24:00 Their currency is worthless. And they're selling gold to Russia and Cuba to help prop up Maduro's regime. The lesson of the story is gold standard. And what is it that Russia and China know? Why are they propping up their currency and their economies with gold? You know who should be buying gold? Us, the United States of America. We should be investing in gold right now, but we won't.

There's just 10 square, like little teeny bullions.

Starting point is 01:25:37 And I'm confused by this, John, an opinion contributor to the, the hill. Your story does not read like an opinion piece. Yeah, I'm at heart, I'm just a reporter. I think today we call me an investigative columnist sort of in the tradition of maybe a Jack Anderson, but what my goal is is to tell stories to people that are hidden under rocks that matter about the integrity of their government. Call it opinion, call it news, call it what you want, but that's the mission. But I just want to make sure that people know that you have credibility. You worked as a reporter for the Washington Post.
Starting point is 01:26:10 You worked as a reporter for the Associated Press. Yeah, for two decades, absolutely. Okay, so you're not some schlub who just has a blog and an opinion like me. You actually have earned this. Thank you. Okay. So, John, the story that I heard from Peter Switzer a couple of weeks ago, you have now taken, and I think taken it to a new level, and no one is reporting.
Starting point is 01:26:38 on it. We kind of know the story, but can you take us through it and give us the meat of this? Absolutely. So first off, Peter did some fantastic work during the 2016 election, raising questions about why is Hunter Biden in Ukraine getting money in Ukraine from a natural gas company at the same moment? His dad, Joe Biden, the vice president, is the official point man for the Obama administration on the Ukrainian crisis. And if you look at the timing that Peter laid out. Joe Biden gets named to be point man in February, mid-February, 2014. And within a few weeks, Hunter Biden suddenly gets this mystery offer to go be a board member of this Ukrainian company. So on the face of it, it looks like the sort of pay to play or scratch my back politics that we see
Starting point is 01:27:23 so often in politics. But here is the big development. By 2016, Ukrainian corruption prosecutors have begun focusing on this company. It's called Burisma. It's a natural gas energy company. And the Ukrainian prosecutors were examining it for multiple reasons. They feared there might have been some tax evasion under Ukrainian law. They believe there might have been some corruption in the securing of drilling permits. And then they were very concerned that money was being exfoliated or taken out of the company and moved to the United States, whether it's money laundering, misuse of money, legitimate. They didn't know. They wanted to get to the point of interviewing the people that were taking the money. And one of those persons was Hunter Biden, an American now working for this
Starting point is 01:28:03 natural gas company. And at the moment, the prosecutors were preparing a request to interview Hunter Biden. Joe Biden shows up in Ukraine on one of his Ukraine trips, and he tells the president of the country, if you don't fire the prosecutor, the chief prosecutor of this country in the next six hours, why I'm here, I'm going to pull back the $1 billion in loan credits to your company, your country needs to stay solvent. And you'll go bankrupt in the next 12 hours if you don't do it. I'm leaving here in six hours, fire that prosecutor. Okay, hang on. I want to play the audio of him actually saying this and telling this story in his own words. Here it is.
Starting point is 01:28:40 I'm desperately concerned about the backsliding on the part of Kiev in terms of corruption. They made, I mean, I'll give you one concrete example. I was not I, but it just happened to be that was the assignment I got. I got all the good ones. And so I got Ukraine. And I remember going over convincing our team, or others to convincing that we should be providing for loan guarantees. And I went over, I guess, the 12th, 13th time to Kiev, and I was supposed to announce that there was another billion-dollar loan guarantee. And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yotsanyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor, and they didn't.
Starting point is 01:29:29 So they said they were walking out to press conference. I said, no, I said, I'm not going to, we're not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority. You're not the president. The president said, I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion. I'm going to be leaving here.
Starting point is 01:29:47 And I think it was, what, six hours? I look, I said, I'm leaving it six hours. If the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. Oh, son of a bit, got fired. And they put in place someone who was. solid at the time. At the time. Notice he says at the time, we'll get into that later. Yeah, very interesting. So this is the prosecutor general that was fired, Victor Shokin. Can you tell me anything about Victor Shokin? Is he a dirty guy? Was he not going after corruption?
Starting point is 01:30:17 Well, he thinks he was, but he was an old school prosecutor, and he was facing some criticism in his country that not enough had been done. Now, there had been some major corruption prosecutions in the securing of some victories against money that had been left from the country. But, you know, he wasn't a popular guy in Ukraine when Biden did this. I think the most important part for Americans is our law, our ethics law, say you don't get involved in a U.S. policy matter if your family has a financial interest. It is irrefutable that Hunter Biden had a financial interest in Burisma, and more importantly, in the outcome of the Ukrainian prosecutors.
Starting point is 01:30:52 And yet Joe Biden goes in, and there's no way Joe Biden can say he didn't. No, there were numerous stories his son had joined the company. There were numerous stories that the very prosecutor that he was seeking to be fired was looking at his son's company before he went and did this. It's irrefutable. I interviewed Chokin. Chokin said I was just a few days away from requesting an interview with Hunter Biden when this happened.
Starting point is 01:31:16 And they had records showing more than $3 million flowed out of this company, Burisma, to the United States into accounts controlled by Hunter Biden and his business partners. right at the time that he gets fired. So let's fast forward ahead, the solid guy that replaces him. That's the new prosecutor general, Yuri Litsenko. I interviewed him, and Yuri Lysenko said, I only recently learned that the Burisma investigation was shut down because of pressure from Joe Biden, and I'm reopening it because I have some serious concerns about what we might have known
Starting point is 01:31:46 and what we might not have been allowed to investigate. And so right now, as the 2020 campaign starts, Ukrainian prosecutors have reopened a portion of that case and are digging in deep. And this could have some very big consequences, both in Ukraine and in the United States. So, John, is there, is there, when you said the new prosecutor had no idea that this Burisma investigation was shut down, is there, was there anything else that was shut down? I mean, is there any doubt? You've talked to so many people that were involved and that they verify that what Joe Biden
Starting point is 01:32:22 said happened. They said it didn't happen overnight. He had been pressuring them for a couple of weeks, I guess. Right. A couple months. That's right. Four months. Yeah, okay, four months. And so they were being pressured, so they all know it. Is there any doubt in their mind over there that what had to happen to not piss Joe Biden or the United States off was end this investigation? Lucenko addressed this in the interview. And he said, listen, we were a country on the brink of insolvency at this point, and we were so reliant on U.S. money, we would do whatever it takes to get that next loan guarantee, because otherwise we go insolvent and we can't pay our bills.
Starting point is 01:33:04 And he said when the Russian leadership that had previously run the country, the Russian friendly president, Yanukovych left the country, there was only $8,000 left in the entire country's coffers to pay bills. They were at the Russians looted the country on the way out. And so without the U.S. money, they could not survive. And so he said, absolutely, we would bend to the will of Joe Biden. But now we're doing a little bit better. We're looking at this.
Starting point is 01:33:31 There's a new president, President Trump in town. And we don't like the way this was shut down. And they're also talking about other pressure exerted in other investigations. About 10 days ago, I reported that Lucenko and other prosecutors and law enforcement officials say the U.S. Embassy, on multiple occasions, pressured them to not pursue certain people. And one of the groups they were asked not to pursue, and I had the letter actually from the embassy, was a nonprofit that was run by George Soros or funded by George Soros. And you can see the letter basically the embassy saying, back off these guys. So something was going on in Ukraine in the 2016 election where the Ukrainian prosecutors felt that the U.S. was interfering in their sovereign affairs, the ability for them to conduct their own criminal investigations on their own soil.
Starting point is 01:34:20 Isn't it interesting how the left has made such a big deal out of Paul Manafort, which he's a guy before he was ever involved with Donald Trump. I talked about Paul Manafort. He's a guy who should be in jail. He should have been prosecuted before he even joined with Trump. He went to jail because of the same kind of stuff in playing footsie with the Russians and taking money and not claiming it, etc., etc. It's interesting to me that such a big deal was made out of Manafort. and yet not a word about this. And it's seemingly in the same pool.
Starting point is 01:34:59 Well, it may even go into a deeper pool. And there are some growing signs. Let's take some things that we now know are in the public record, irrefutable things in the public record. There was a recent court ruling in Ukraine in which a Ukrainian court concluded that NABU, the FBI of Ukraine, knowingly and willfully tried to intervene in the 2016 election to benefit Hillary Clinton. That's a court ruling. How did they do that? They leaked documents in the summer of 2016 to American media like the New York Times laying out the evidence or alleged evidence against
Starting point is 01:35:34 Paul Manafort of these monies coming from the party of regions in Ukraine. And that led to Manafort being leaving the campaign and then the criminal investigation. What's extraordinary is that we in the interview I did just a couple of days ago with the Ukrainian prosecutors. They say they were under pressure. They won't say specifically who, but they were under pressure from the United States to narrow the focus of what was leaked to the media, to just Manafort, and to leave out of the record that they gave the medium similar payments that were being made to Democratic figures, including Greg Craig Obama's former White House counsel. He says that on the record for the first time. So you have a foreign country saying, we leaked Manafort, but we protected the Democrats,
Starting point is 01:36:15 including Greg Craig. And also in the same interview, the prosecutor divulges. for the first time that he has affidavits or sworn statements from two federal law or Ukrainian law enforcement officials saying, yes, we were trying to interfere in the election to the benefit of Hillary Clinton. So now we may have real proof that a foreign power did knowingly and willfully intervene in the election, but not on behalf of Donald Trump in behalf of Hillary Clinton. John, you have been around, like I said at the beginning, decades, AP, Washington Post. you have been around stories that have been earth shattering.
Starting point is 01:36:54 Compare this. What kind of story is this? How big of a story is this? Not how big it will become because we have no idea what the press will do with it. But how important of a story is this? Can you compare it to anything you've seen in the past? You know, I don't want to get ahead of our skis because there's still a lot more reporting. But let's just think about what we know at this very moment.
Starting point is 01:37:14 These are facts that are irrefutable in the record. Mrs. Clinton and the Democratic Party had a person assigned to the Ukrainian embassy in Washington to receive research on Donald Trump's ties to Russia. That is irrefutable. It's been confirmed. The Ukrainians say they have a court ruling and intercepts tape recordings, showing their Ukrainian law enforcement institution, NABU, trying to intervene in the election on behalf of Mrs. Clinton.
Starting point is 01:37:44 You have Nellie Orr's testimony to Congress. saying at Fusion GPS, when I work there as the wife of a senior justice official Bruce Orr, working for the same firm as Christopher Steele and Glenn Simpson, one of our primary sources of information on dirt on Donald Trump and Russia was a Ukrainian. She says that under oath in Congress. Those are three things that we now know. Now let's take forward the fact that we now know irrefutably by Joe Biden's own words, he ordered or pressured the firing of a prosecutor who was looking at his son's company. Just those. four things are more than anything that ever came out and was corroborated in the Russia collusion probe.
Starting point is 01:38:23 When we see that, we have to at least say there are some very serious questions that have to be asked of the Democrats of the Ukrainian government. Tomorrow, I'll be reporting that Ukrainian authorities have tried multiple times in the last several months to come to Washington and deliver to the new Attorney General Bill Barr Barr, evidence of what they believe occurred in the 2016 election and it occurred in Burisma and Biden. but every time they ask for permission, the U.S. Embassy in Kiev has been unwilling to give them a visa to come here. So that's going to advance the question. What is to hide?
Starting point is 01:38:55 Why can't we let these Ukrainians come here and talk to our own Justice Department and share the information? There are a lot of questions. I don't want to get ahead of the skis yet, but I think there's enough in the record of evidence to demand more investigation and certainly more answers to questions. John Solomon, thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thank you, God. You bet. Bye-bye.

Starting point is 01:41:39 it will become a big story. But see, here's the thing. It will become a big story for the right, but they will bury it on the left. There's a lot there, though. I mean, you know, a lot. There's confirmed stuff now. We're direct, you know, direct quotes and paper trails of money changing hands.
Starting point is 01:41:58 and everything else. It's not like, well, you know what? I heard she peed on him in bed. It's none of that stuff. No. And Joe Biden is a bit of a tough guy. Like he likes to show he's a tough guy. He likes to talk about how he views himself as a tough guy.
Starting point is 01:42:13 He brags about things like that every once in a while, like how tough he is and how he can talk people into stuff. And I mean, remember, we've been hearing months of criticism over Trump's idea of pulling back funds to places like Honduras and. you know, Costa Rica because of the immigration issue. You're not supposed to use foreign aid for those purposes to try to change people's minds and make them do things. Here's Biden bragging about it and bragging about it at a time where this guy is actually investigating his son's company. I mean, that is way, way, way more serious than, I mean, most of these allegations that were ever made against the president. This could count Joe Biden out. the handsy things won't
Starting point is 01:42:58 it'll just it'll give it's just a tool for the Democrats to fight among them yes and it'll be great to make fun of yada yada yada but it's it's not going to stop him from running no and I think at this level not now I mean it's only seven women
Starting point is 01:43:14 I mean geez I mean maybe you get to 700 you know 70 times seven I believe was talked about at one point but maybe I think with this one this is a serious election general election issue if it gets that far. And it's fascinating. Fascinating to me. How quiet everybody is. If this Trump investigation was really, truly about justice, they would be going after this just as hard.
Starting point is 01:43:40 But it's not. It's about politics. And their silence on it makes me wonder, I mean, the competing candidates, why are they so silent? What are you having your closet? You connected? You're listening to Glenn Beck. All right. As gun owners, we all want safety and security for our family. But as responsible Americans, if you're going to arm yourself, you need to know that that's more than just owning a gun. You have to know how to safely store, shoot, carry your weapon. The USCA membership brings you the industry leading education, training, and this is really important, at least to me, the trusted legal protection that you need to protect your family with confidence. Hundreds of thousands of gun owners have used. use the U.S. Concealed Carry Association to transform themselves into a community of responsibly armed Americans are looking for you to join. I join. It's, uh, it is the USCA. You want to join this. Here's why. I pull the trigger. I know attorneys are part of my life for the next five years. You need to have the protection, uh, that the USCA provides. Now, they're giving
Starting point is 01:44:53 away 19 free guns. So what type of gun is it? It's one of those popular double action pistols in the world today. It's the gun of choice for law enforcement officers, civilians, and our military. What gun is it? Text the word Beck, 87-2-2, and it'll reveal the identity of the gun and get you your 19 free chances. There you go. Plus, joinplaceTV.com slash Glenn. You've heard we really need your support to make these investigations possible. Use the promo code, Glenn. You know the, I don't know. Who's the biggest fraud that is out there? You know, the, the reason why Donald Trump won, in my opinion, is, well, A, Hillary Clinton was just horrible.
Starting point is 01:45:36 Just horrible. Yes. It has to be the worst major party nominee ever. Yeah. Well, they might be. Well, up until that point, 2020 might be. And maybe worse. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:47 Maybe worse. but the reason why he won is because he was authentic. In his own way, you know, he likes big gold gaudy things. He doesn't mind being seen with big gold gaudy things. And he's like, yeah, I like hot women. I married a few. Look at them. Ah, they're hot.
Starting point is 01:46:11 I mean, so he's authentically him, even in the things that are not real. Does that make sense to you? Yeah, you know, my woman started to look a little saggy. So we put some, you know, lift in her bazumbas. What? I remember that speech. It was an impactful moment. I mean, but that's an author.
Starting point is 01:46:32 While you're, while you're, you know, saying, hey, plastic surgery, it is authentically him. And I'm not saying that. I'm just using that as an example. Right. The bottom line is he says what he, what he thinks. Correct. Correct. Correct.
Starting point is 01:46:46 And so, and that's what I. thought was a rebound from Barack Obama. I knew Barack Obama was so slick and so perfect that it would rebound. And you'd get somebody like that. Yeah. The buttoned up guy goes to, I mean, I remember you initially talking about this theory with Chris Christie when he was coming in. Like he could kind of just see some guy who's plain spoken and, you know,
Starting point is 01:47:09 his shirt's kind of untucked. He's got gravy on his shirt. Yeah, his buttons are kind of popping out. You see a little bit of his fat. And you're like, and he's like, yep, I'm fat. And I, oh, geez, I just had lunching a gravy on my shirt. I'm sorry about that. Listen, here's what's going on.
Starting point is 01:47:24 Right. And Trump's not that guy, but he's a different version of that guy. Different version of that guy, right? Okay. So now, I don't think we're at the pendulum yet. I don't think the pendulum is now at four, at eight years, maybe we'll be at the pendulum where you're going to want somebody who is just really, you know, soft spoken, a, a Ben Sass type or Buttigieg.
Starting point is 01:47:46 Yeah. The Buttigieg thing is happening now, I think, based on that. I watched his CNN Town Hall. And he's getting this big spike. Again, the polls, he's up to, you know, four or five percent. He's not a huge factor yet. But he is breaking out of that, I mean, there's a, you know, it's a field of 16 right now. We expect at least four or five more to be in this race in the next few weeks.
Starting point is 01:48:10 So he's being, he's able to separate himself a little bit from that very lower tier. And he's making some noise. And that is essentially his approach. He comes off completely as the anti-Trump. He's young. He's very calm. He talks about all the details of his policies. He's a gay guy who's like, I like Chick-fil-A.
Starting point is 01:48:28 So I go eat Chick-fil-A. I love their sandwiches. Yeah. Center of the country, gay man, would be the first gay president. And again, if you think, well, we shouldn't we just elect someone on merit? No. We should elect someone on who has the most intersectionality points. And that's, I think, the most.
Starting point is 01:48:43 I think even more than Kamala Harris, who would be the first, black woman who would be, you know, president. There's more intersectionality points for first gay president, I think, at this point. I think if that would be such a big deal, the Democrats want that title, they want to be able to say that they ran someone who was openly gay. And, you know, again, he comes up very well. I mean, he, at least in his first appearance, came up very well. And bulletproof because he's gay.
Starting point is 01:49:09 Bulletproof. Bulletproof. Because there'll be a lot of people that won't listen to anything other than, you know what? I want to make that statement that we're not homophobic. It was similar with Barack Obama. It really didn't matter how many times he said he wanted to bankrupt this industry or that industry. The bottom line was he was going to be the first black president. And that gave him enough votes to make it not even a contest.
Starting point is 01:49:32 I think honestly, even if he was white, he probably beats John McCain relatively easily. But I mean, it wasn't even a contest because there's enough people in the middle who didn't really have, don't follow these things that closely, who just wanted to make that statement. And it's a good statement, right? I mean, it's nice to think that we don't care about those things in the United States of America. Of course, immediately upon getting into office, he spent eight years telling us that's all we care about. I mean, so it was it completely backfired on the people who wanted to make a statement, a positive statement about race. So it'll be interesting to see, um, uh, Buttigieg who is just a, he's a mayor from Indiana, South Bend, yeah, Indiana.
Starting point is 01:50:12 I mean, he's a mayor. I think that actually works to his advantage. A soft-spoken regular guy who's a mayor in South Bend, Indiana, who goes and he's the new president. He's complete outsider. I think this guy is worth watching because you look at Elizabeth Warren. She's done, first of all. She's absolutely done.
Starting point is 01:50:40 But there's no genuine Elizabeth Warren. that you like, right? No, she's not a genuine communicator in any way. She's not Hillary Clinton, but she's close. Very close, if she's not. If she's not as bad as Hillary Clinton, yeah, they're very similar in their delivery and their inability to seem authentic in any way. Okay.
Starting point is 01:50:59 So now, let me give you Corey Booker. Corey Booker is so fake and so over the top that he just will not connect. Now, I'm not talking about policies with any of these people. Just are they real? Listen to Cory Booker in a sit-down conversation with Democrats in the audience. He all of a sudden gets up out of his chair and he does this. This is America. We know our history.
Starting point is 01:51:35 This is a time to stand up, to speak up, to rise up. Because when we stand as Americans, when we join together and fight together, and work together. No filibuster can stop us. We ushered in civil rights, women's rights, workers' rights. And in this era, if we organize again, we are going to bring a progressive agenda to this country and move it forward for everyone,
Starting point is 01:51:58 no matter who's in the Senate. I mean, that is, and that's the good side of Cory Booker. I think that's better than his normal performance. Oh, yeah. His normal performance. Oh, yeah. But that's just, does not strike you as authentic. No, you know what?
Starting point is 01:52:11 That is the kiss of debt. You start exposing that. That is the kiss of death that we saw with, what's his face? Howard Dean. Howard Dean. Yeah. That is the same kind of speech where it's not authentic. Sit down.
Starting point is 01:52:26 You want it too much. Sit down. Exactly. You want it too much. It's such a great way to put it with Booker. Because I mean, the Spartacus thing was the same. It was a different tone. Tone.
Starting point is 01:52:37 Tone, but it was the same thing. He just wants it so badly. I'm breaking the rules. This is my Spartacus moment. It's just so cheesy. And you can just tell all he wants in life is to come up with like this perfect speech that's going to win all Democrats to his side so we can get this nomination. When people can sense you want it that badly, you usually don't get it. And I think that's where, you know, Biden was or is authentically Joe Biden.
Starting point is 01:53:10 Yeah, I think there's some authentic candidates in this race for them. I think, you know, we talked about Buttigieg. I think Biden is authentically Biden. And he's similar in that way you're talking about with Chris Christie, where he'll come out and blurt out things that don't make any sense. And he'll say things that are sort of offensive. And he's going to be apologizing a lot through this campaign. Well, I mean, he's not Louis Farrakhan. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:53:29 He's not. I didn't say that. He's not Lewis Farrak. But, I mean, I think Bernie Sanders is authentic. You know, again, like, here's another guy who I think does not fit into that very basic politician mold where he's, you know, look, he's a hundred and forty-seous. years old. His hair's all over the place. He looks like a crazy professor. I mean, it looks like he's got a flux capacitor somewhere inside of his house. He's created because he fell on a toilet in 195. I mean, like, that's who this guy looks like. But he is, he is, look, all of a sudden,
Starting point is 01:54:00 things changed in, in 1960. You had this handsome, good-looking, well-spoken, Camelot kind of, wow. Mm-hmm. Okay? With Kennedy. Yeah. And that's what everybody's been shooting for. Who's the next Kennedy? Who's the next Robert F. Kennedy? Oh, he's so sexy. Oh, he's so beautiful. Oh, look at him. He's got his shirt off. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And we have been looking for the Kennedy image for so long. We are now looking for the Scuttle image. I mean, when I think of Bernie Sanders, I think of Scuttle. You remember the Seagull from, you know, Little Mermaid, played by Buddy Hackett?
Starting point is 01:54:43 that's who I think I mean I've never seen Scuttle and Bernie Sanders in the same room I'm not saying they're the same people but that's what we're going for now we are we are officially finished with the JFK good looking kind of guy
Starting point is 01:55:01 and I think that is what Beto is going for right he's going for this JFK RFK look and I don't think he is if you look that way I think you have to be deeper. I think you have to have deep, meaningful thoughts. You know, RFK,
Starting point is 01:55:23 everybody who is a fan of JFK that I know of, they all say the same thing. But RFK was the real deal. Yeah, all right. They like RFK better. Everybody likes RFK because he, he actually earned it
Starting point is 01:55:36 where JFK was just living on his looks and his daddy's money. RFK deserves it and earned it. And I think because we're looking for somebody so authentic now, I think to win, you're going to have to earn it. And it's not by memorizing rhymes like Corey Booker just did. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:56 Look at this theory, though, on the pendulum real quick. So JFK, this perfect guy, he's just this, you know, buttoned up, everything else. You skip over Lyndon Johnson because, I mean, he wasn't elected, right? The next president is elected is Richard Nixon, right? like total opposite, right, of Kennedy. But he was the guy who lost to Kennedy, too. And he was the guy that lost to Kennedy. So, I mean, even more starkly indicates that.
Starting point is 01:56:20 But he was like, you know, you think of him sweating and you think of him like, then there's like this that you also think of corruption, right? Like all of the, with Watergate. Then you go to. The peanut farm. Again, Ford not, not counting him. You go to Carter then, peanut farmer. Then you go from just, but it was completing competence.
Starting point is 01:56:37 Then you go to a guy competence, right? you have a real, real competence there. Some people saw that, though, is like family values and everything in that whole generation. I mean, George H.W. Bush largely wins because Reagan was so successful. He couldn't lose. But then we go to the Bill Clinton guy. He's the saxophone playing guy. But then he turns into the scandal guy. We need someone with honor. George W. Bush. George W. Bush comes in. And George W. Bush comes in. And yes, you know, the left never likes him. But the real. He does the hard things that nobody really.
Starting point is 01:57:10 really likes. I mean, all the way to tarp. He would frame that as, look, I know this is, he said it. I had to, I had to violate it to save it. The capitalist system. Yeah, right. Then you have, but remember, the other thing about Bush was stumbling over speeches all the time. You constantly couldn't get through sentences. Then you have the Mr. Perfect buttoned up guy with Obama. He comes in. That's all he does is he makes great speeches, supposedly. And he's the most buttoned up intellectual guy you've ever seen in your entire life, the exact opposite of the way Bush was portrayed. then Obama goes for eight years. And again, if you believe the left, how on earth does Hillary Clinton lose?
Starting point is 01:57:45 This is just a handoff because Barack Obama's presidency was so successful. Instead, the pendulum swings the other way. And you have a guy who is swearing on stage, who is, you know, who doesn't always nail every single fact. He's out there. But he gets the people pumped up. You know, the people love him. He's out making huge rallies.
Starting point is 01:58:04 It's a totally different, again, profile of a candidate. And so again, you know, Barack Obama won twice, right? So does it go back in 2024 to a Democrat who has the exact opposite profile of Trump? Or does it happen in 2020? I mean, it's an interesting thing because we get sick of what we have and we go for something else. Yeah, I would say that it would go to 2024. However, if you're just looking at based on, you know, the pendulum, the only thing you couldn't count on is that time has sped up now.
Starting point is 01:58:43 Because everything is so intense, what used to take four or eight years now can take two or four years. And so you just don't know. But one thing I do know is the candidate that runs against Trump will need to be as authentic as he is. And I know people think, oh, he's a fraud. No, no, no. No, no, he makes no bones about who he is, how he runs his business, what he does. He does not care. And that's what America was attracted to.
Starting point is 01:59:17 Somebody who's like, shut up. Get the hell out of my office. That's what they were looking for. I'm kind of hoping that it is, that it's Donald Trump. And then when we're sick of that, we go to somebody like Ben Sasse, who has laid the groundwork for being that guy in 2024. Just, I'm just saying. Simply safe is our sponsor this half hour. Simply safe, 100% committed to helping you fear less at home.
Starting point is 01:59:49 24-7, no hidden fees, no contract. It's only $14.99 a month for monitoring. They're protecting now over 3 million people and businesses all over the country. It's simply safe. It's an amazing security company that has done everything differently. They do it better. They have no contracts. So you want somebody to monitor your house this month, but not next month?
