The Glenn Beck Program - What Trump & Kash Patel MUST Do After Hunter Biden’s Pardon | Guests: Peter Schweizer & Brittany Patterson | 12/2/24

Episode Date: December 2, 2024

Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely. That’s what came to Glenn’s mind when Biden announced he would blanket-pardon his son Hunter for any felony crime he may or may not have committ...ed since 2014. Would Hunter have been prosecuted years ago if his last name were different? Glenn believes so. Will Kash Patel blow the lid off all of this by declassifying everything? Pat Gray joins Glenn and Stu to discuss Hunter Biden’s pardon and President Biden’s multiple lies. Government Accountability Institute president and "Biden crime family" expert Peter Schweizer joins to discuss the despicable precedent that comes from Biden blanket-pardoning his son and expose which crimes Hunter just got away with. Glenn and Stu discuss the luck the Kansas City Chiefs appear to have. Brittany Patterson, a mother who was arrested for letting her 10-year-old walk less than a mile into town, joins with her attorney, David DeLugas, to discuss her charges and the complete overreach by the prosecution. Stu calls Glenn out for trying to back out on his promise after his daughter Cheyenne’s album topped the charts on iTunes.   https://parentsusa.org Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:00:00 First, let me tell you about rough greens. You know, if you eat non-nutritional food all the time day after day, you're only eating McDonald's. You're not going to be very healthy. Well, it turns out that's kind of what we're doing. The same rule applies to your dog or your cat. If you're feeding your dog kibble food, he's not getting all the good nutrition that's been baked out of it
Starting point is 00:00:18 so he can sit on a shelf for two, two and a half years. That's why you need to add rough greens to the food. Not a dog food. It's a supplement developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black that you sprinkle on the dog's food. and it contains all the good stuff your dog needs for a happier, healthier life, things like probiotics and antioxidants, because remember brown food is dead food, you need the green stuff.

Starting point is 00:00:59 dot com slash back or call 833, G-L-E-3-E-N-33, 8-3-G-L-E-N-N-33. All right, we get right to it next. Oh, you sick, twisted freak. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're going to start at the least surprising story
Starting point is 00:02:10 of the decade. Joe Biden pardons his son for any crime committed over the last 10 years. We start there in 60 seconds. First, as the holidays approach, it is essential to recognize personal safety is a year-round priority. Crime tends to spike during this critical time of year, making it even more critical to protect what matters most.
Starting point is 00:02:34 This holiday season, give your gift for a loved one the peace of mind by giving them something will keep them safe in situations where protection is needed, but life-ending violence isn't called for. It's a burner launcher. Yeah, the burn of launcher is great. I bought one for my wife for her birthday, I think it was. And it's one of those things that, like, she's a little intimidated by the actual gun that we have. And she doesn't necessarily want to carry that around.
Starting point is 00:03:03 But the burner launcher is a different story. It really fits perfectly into the world we live in where you have to kind of be very much on the guard for something going wrong, but also on the guard for the legal system going wrong. So Burna is legal in all 50 states. If you're 18 or older, and it's just a great, great item. Plus, it's a lot of fun, I will say. It was great beating Glenn in his backyard target practice one day with a Burna launcher. Excuse me?
Starting point is 00:03:29 I'm in the middle of speaking. So don't look that up. Burna. You'll look that up instead. It's the Burna Launcher. Right. Got it. All right, Burna Launcher.
Starting point is 00:03:38 You can get it now. Burna's Black Friday sale ends today. Visit Burna, B-Y-R-N-A.com. Get 15% off sitewide. That's burner. dot com save 15% now. All right. Well, let me start here.
Starting point is 00:03:56 We've been saying it for decades now. Decades. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. That used to be kind of like a bumper sticker thing back in the Reagan era, you know. These days, I think it's lost its impact. I don't know if people really understand it anymore, even, know it. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Joe Biden has given his
Starting point is 00:04:27 blanket pardon to his son, but only for crimes that may have been committed over the last 10 years. Now, this is something that he said he would never do, but I'm not surprised. Really, this is the least surprising story of the decade. We all knew it. We all knew it was coming, right? Now, this is the privilege of the U.S. president. The final month of office actually accounts for about 92% of presidential pardons and sentence commutations.
Starting point is 00:05:03 It's fairly normal then for presidents to exercise that constitutional power, and it is his right to do it. It has no constitutional or Supreme Court. oversight so he can do it whatever he wants. It's one of the few powers that we grant the executive office for which there is no check and balance process outlined in the Constitution. It's been used every year since Herbert Hoover when he pardoned the first Thanksgiving Turkey. Legally speaking, Joe Biden giving a blanket pardon to his son for felony crimes that he's
Starting point is 00:05:42 actually admitted to in court and sentenced to in court after millions of dollars were spent in not only covering up the crimes, but also denying the crimes. And all of the corruption that went on with the Justice Department and the FBI and the IRS, all of that now is gone. He admitted it in a book. He admitted it as soon as he knew dad was going to pardon him. And presidents can do this. They have, you know, whole staffs dedicated to finding criminals who may have gotten the short end of the stick. And if I may pause here, just for a Glenn Beck moment, a short end of the stick. You know where that comes from. It's actually a historic reference from the Scottish Gaelic days where they had physical combat where two men would take a tree branch and then kind of like
Starting point is 00:06:42 a wishbone, they would break it in half and then they'd beat each other, you know, to death with that stick. So it's like the turkey wishbone except the other person dies. Anyway, back to modern times. President can give a blanket pardon to a multi-felony son directly in the face of his own justice department investigations of the same son. Now, we're at the point where if this was just cocaine and prostitutes, I don't think we'd care that much. I really don't. I mean, it would be bad, but I don't think him doing cocaine and prostitutes is that much as a surprise. Would you be that surprised if cocaine and prostitutes dad was doing him too? No. However, we're talking about money laundering charges to the Biden family. What about the,
Starting point is 00:07:42 violation of the State Secrets Act. You know that Biden granted his children, including Hunter, security clearance against the recommendations of the NSA and the CIA that warned him over and over and over again. Secrets are being leaked. How about Chinese prostitute spies? Do you care about that much? I don't even know how you face yourself in the mirror if you're part of the White House press corps
Starting point is 00:08:18 or anybody in the mainstream media who has been saying the whole time, none of this happened, none of this happened, he's not going to be part in your son, you're not going to need you. I mean, I feel bad in a very small way for KJP who has to stand there today to defend what she's been saying the whole time.
Starting point is 00:08:41 No, I stand by what the president has said for the last two years. He's been saying it all time. Now she's got to say, if it wasn't the president's son, would he have been prosecuted? Yes. He would have been prosecuted. In fact, he would have been in jail years ago. So when Joe Biden says, yeah, well, there was, you know, there was a miscarriage of justice here. I mean, he got special treatment.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yes, he did. You know, the reason why all of this is a big deal is because the Justice Department and the FBI and the IRS made a deal that one judge said, wait a minute, I've never seen a deal like this. What's going on here? That's why this whole thing came undone. They were trying to sweep it a, yes, he was getting a sweetheart deal that you wouldn't have gotten, your son wouldn't have gotten. How are they going to defend it? The same way. The same way.
Starting point is 00:09:46 It doesn't matter. This is why I say this is the least surprising story of the decade. Nobody is surprised by it. We all knew. We knew this was happening when he was running. Now, if Trump is who we think he is or who he's, I hope, going to be an agent of change, he can completely blow the lid off of this and effectively destroy and just destroy any semblance of respect that Biden had left. Even if he can't prosecute Hunter or Joe, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:10:25 But he can declassify every single document in the Biden investigation from cocaine to China to the Middle East and destroy not just the Biden legacy. See, he's already destroyed that. But he can destroy the press. He can destroy everyone that was involved in this, the entire apparatus around it. Biden only granted Hunter immunity. Only Hunter, and by extension, himself. But not the gross military and intelligence industrial complex
Starting point is 00:11:06 and the team around them. all those people can be exposed. All of those people can go to jail. And with the appointment of Cash Patel, I predict it's going to happen. So now, why not hearings? I mean, we could impeach Biden right now, but you want to spend the money on that?
Starting point is 00:11:35 You want to spend the time on that? justice would say yes our country demands that we say yes if we want a country and we have a family that has built billions I'm sorry millions of dollars from other countries
Starting point is 00:11:58 why are we in Ukraine why is all this money going to Ukraine where is it going where is it ending up you know nobody has followed the money on that one. Why? Why? Is there even more corruption? You know, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, they really were the ones that kind of industrialized this whole game. They did it with China, but everybody turned their head. No big deal. Ah, they're out of office now. Joe Biden perfected it.
Starting point is 00:12:33 If we let this family get away with us, what do you think is going to happen? the next time a president decides to sell themselves and the office. People must go to jail. The president has every right, every right to pardon his son. But Cash Patel, if he's half the man I think, no, if he's half the man I know he is, declassify all of it, all of it. call out the corruption that is everywhere. I have to ask half the country a question.
Starting point is 00:13:23 And I know you think that we're stupid because Donald Trump is a felon. Is he? Is he? He's a felon on what? On what? Charges that were brought against him that have never been brought against anyone ever in the history of the country? That's called weaponization. And is it a surprise that they were brought when he was running? You see, the Hunter Biden thing, that should have been in the pipeline years before,
Starting point is 00:14:06 but couldn't do it because of Biden's grasp on the system. How stupid are you? I mean, I'm sorry. I don't mean to insult you because you think I'm stupid. What is it going to take? You're still donating and supporting the Democratic Party? They just, they lied to you on so many things, but they lied to you about this. They lied to you about the laptop being real. When they knew it was real, the FBI was part of it. They tried to make a deal, an underhanded deal that you would have never gotten.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Remember, why would you stand up for someone's extra rights that you would never get? If it's right for them, it has to be right for you. Remember, we lend our rights to them to protect them. They don't have extra rights. They have none. They can't print rights. They come from us. You know, it is so hard.
Starting point is 00:15:32 You know, we just went through Thanksgiving, and hopefully you had a good Thanksgiving, and hopefully you had, you know, you didn't have big battles and fights and everything else. Hopefully things went well. But I got to tell you, it is hard. I marvel at the blindness of so many Americans. I marvel at it. And I know they think the same of us. I know.
Starting point is 00:16:03 That's fine. But we have the Constitution on our side. We are fighting for the country. Believe me, if Donald Trump, we found out, was selling secrets to Russia, was selling secrets or selling his office to China, I'd be first in line. be first in line to impeach him. If he was enriching his children exactly the same way that Joe Biden was, I would be for his prosecution and his jail time. Can you say that?
Starting point is 00:16:52 Until you can rationally describe to me that this isn't just pure nepotism, that utterly destroys Biden's entire career, his entire legacy, his entire presidency, everything that this man does and has done, we now know, for the last 10 years. This isn't just, hey, I pardon him for this crime. I pardon him for every crime he may have committed for a 10 year period. I mean, I just, if we meet in the grocery store, you know, God bless you. But if you still think that that's okay, I might just patch you on. the head and send you down the cereal aisle with the same kind of kindness. I show a retarded puppy,
Starting point is 00:17:43 but holy cow. Justice is more than a specific outcome. It is a philosophy. It's a mentality. It's an absolute. We may not get it right every time because we're human, but we should strive for justice. What if we have? hunter's crimes were rape or murder, would that be okay? Would you still support a blanket pardon? Or would you say, no, that's too far, but selling my children and your children into slavery by granting China and others special access to our White House and to our secrets, that's okay? Good on you. It's not. It's not. for me, but good on you. And let me just end it with surprise. He pardoned his son. Back in a minute.

Starting point is 00:20:45 I'm really struggling with some things in my life right now. And I haven't decided yet whether I am going to share them with you. because I think I'm not alone in them. But maybe I am. But one of the things that I'm struggling with is my eldest daughter, Mary. You know, she had brain surgery a few years ago, and her seizures stopped. And her seizures were frustrating,
Starting point is 00:21:20 but the medication kind of softened them. All of a sudden, after two years of... are being seizure free, they are, they are grand mal happening even with medication and it's just, I just, she had two last night. She ended up in the hospital and I just don't know what to do. And I'm just looking for the best doctor in the world. I don't care what it costs. I don't care what it means. I just want my daughter to be able to have a have some function in her life where she's not always going into uh seizures so if you know somebody uh we've looked and looked and looked and i thought we've had some of the best but that
Starting point is 00:22:15 surgery actually made things worse uh for her unfortunately but uh at least keep her uh and my family in your prayers if you will all right back with more in Just a second. We think of this is one of the best, most joyous times of the year, and it is, but it can also be a hard time if you're part of a family of a service member, a first responder, who didn't make it home from their duty.

I can't thank you enough for, I mean, gosh, I've had just a roller coaster ride here recently. my other daughter, Cheyenne, put together a CD. It is now the number one Christmas album beating Michael Boubley on iTunes. It's the fifth largest selling album on the general iTunes chart.
Starting point is 00:25:12 It's incredible. It's amazing. It's absolutely amazing. Does Boubley have another Christmas? CD out? No, but he's... They all go like, oh,
Starting point is 00:25:21 pop to the top. Right, yeah, yeah. Always pop to the... Well, another one I put out there, because, you know, obviously Bubele, like all the other ones, like Mariah Carey's on that list,
Starting point is 00:25:28 all the classic holiday. Yeah. But also, and you might say, well, that's the way the list works. A new thing might pop to the top. Number three on that list, though, is the Philly Specials, which of course I know about only because it's,
Starting point is 00:25:41 it's Jason Kelsey and the Eagles. Jason Kelsey. Does Jason Kelsey get any publicity these days? As you only noticed? A little bit. A little publicity. They release a Christmas CD and like, you know, he's singing on. And it's fun.
Starting point is 00:25:54 It's good. But it's been really popular. This is I think the second or third one they put out. And that one's number three. Yeah. I mean, Cheyenne. That's great. I will tell you it's still not number one though.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Still not number one. Still not number one on the iTunes. What are you talking about? Not number one. No, that's number one Christmas. That doesn't count. Number one. Are you trying to get out of this?
Starting point is 00:26:18 You are absolutely legally required to participate in? I'm just saying it's got to be wicked. It's got to be wicked. It's got to be wicked. Don't you think that's right? Sounds right. Sounds right. Sounds right.
Starting point is 00:26:33 That does. Are you sound right to me? That sounds right to you, Pat. It's got to be. I just don't throw out an orchestral version of where to hell my phone. You know, singing, not rapping, singing. where to hell my phone. I just don't do that higgledy-piggledy.
Starting point is 00:26:52 I didn't think you would. You actually put a number one requirement on your daughter's Christmas album, which actually came through. Which is shocking. And now you're trying to back out of it. I got to tell you. We were going to, we were in New York
Starting point is 00:27:07 and we were going to a show and paparazzi was there. And as we're walking in, they said, Glenn back, glad back. And I turned, flash flash flash flash and i'm like come out guys shy grace shy grace and i'm like what the hell what is happening it is so bizarre and last night you were there stew thanks pat you four no no no uh grapevine did a uh a giving machine kind of thing uh and they asked her to perform
Starting point is 00:27:43 along with you know a whole bunch of other you know local talent yeah and so she performs It was great, by the way. Thanks. And she was, that's the first time. I mean, she's done stage, but that's lines and it's totally different. And so she, like, didn't really know, you know, she didn't know how to do it, you know. That's her first time singing these songs live. First time singing something live like that outside of a play or, you know, a performance.
Starting point is 00:28:13 And somebody said, you know, she's. She sounds great. She's got a little work on the banter in between. I said, yeah, yeah. This is the first time she's performed, and a week from now, she's going to be performing at the grand old opera. She has been asked to open for for King and Country.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Wow. At the grand old opera. That's incredible. It's terrifying. It's terrifying. That's amazing. She feel about it. She's terrified.
Starting point is 00:28:52 I mean, she's, you know, she's good when she's performing as an actress. She's fine. But she has no idea. Yeah, that's a pretty big time. Yeah. Yeah. Like every country artist, every big artist forever has performed at the grand old opera.
Starting point is 00:29:13 And that's going to be your second performance. I guess she had that at least that warm up. You know, she had the one warm up. That should be enough, right? You want to make sure you stretch before you go into the, you know, the Olympics 100 meter dash. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Yeah. Yeah. So, but thank you so much for, uh, for buying it and listening to it. And I hope you enjoyed it. Uh, it's available wherever you can get your music on Spotify, Apple, uh, et cetera, et cetera. It's called home for Christmas. All right. Pat.
Starting point is 00:29:46 I'm guessing you have something to say about the Hunter Biden pardon. About Biden lying repeatedly over and over over again. Lying about, yeah, I'm not going to. No, no, I believe in the justice system. I have no intention of pardoning him. Not even commuting the sentence. He wasn't even going to do that. Wasn't going to do that at all.
Starting point is 00:30:08 And then last night, of course, he commuted. Are you surprised, pardoning? Honestly, are you surprised? Yeah, I am a little bit. Are you really? Because he was so adamant about it. He said it over and over and over. And I don't know why I get fooled by this all the time.
Starting point is 00:30:22 But I start to think, okay, he's too adamant about it. He can't go back on it now. And they do. Every time. It's incredible. What I thought might happen was a deal between he and Trump, where they pardon each other. They take care of each other's deal, which would have been, you know, more palatable than this. There were some rumors about that.
Starting point is 00:30:43 Yeah. But, like, okay, you part. You pardon Hunter when you get into office and I'll pardon you now. And that would have made more sense than just lying to us flat out. And how are you going to handle that with the KJP press conference today or tomorrow or whenever they have one? They will just do what they do. They will say, well, we didn't realize how the Cash Patel nomination is what really pushed us. But come up with some BS excuse.
Starting point is 00:31:10 They will. Yes, they do. Do we have the porn music just for a second? Why would we have that handy? We have it handy, believe me. Just, I mean... This is not porn to me. This is like Barry White or something.
Starting point is 00:31:28 I'm sorry, Pat, do you know what porn music sounds? I don't. You guys have never even heard of it. I don't know what parody sounds like. Nothing like that. This is as close as we can get to it. I mean, I just want to say, Cash Patel.
Starting point is 00:31:43 Do you know what disturbing this is to this man? Cash Patel. Poor Cash Patel's like, I don't want to be nominated. I want to go home. I don't want this street. No. So disturbing. I love him.
Starting point is 00:31:58 We have clips because I, you know, I talk to him. This is the most sadmint. Are you ready? We may need the porn music again. I don't know. Okay. Let's see if I have this clip because he, Cash Patel.
Starting point is 00:32:12 Yeah. Yeah, I don't have it yet. It's coming. But Cash was on my show, and we were talking about who holds, who has the diary, who has the phone records, who has everything from Epstein? Do we have that cut? Yeah, go ahead, play. Who has Jeffrey Epstein's?
Starting point is 00:32:43 Blackbook? Blackbook? FBI. But who... Foreign music. That is... I mean, there's... Oh, that's under direct control of the director of the FBI. Just like the manifesto... Oh, yeah. From the Nashville school shooting of the Catholic school.
Starting point is 00:32:59 We still haven't seen that, right? Ding-dong. It's not the Nashville police or PD saying, we don't want this out. Pizza man. The FBI airmailed into that operation and said, and this is not getting out. Because they do that because they...
Starting point is 00:33:11 This is another government gangster. All these local law enforcement communities get funding from the DOJ and FBI for local programs. If you don't cooperate, you're not getting your million dollars for this and you're not getting your, and that's a lot of money to these local districts. That's how they play the game. That's why you don't have a black book. But the black book, it's not just sitting. I mean, that's that's Hoover power times 10.
Starting point is 00:33:36 And to me, that's a thing I think President Trump should run on. On day one, roll out the black book. Oh, yes. Oh, yeah, please, I can't take it anymore. Day one, roll out all of the text message and communications we were told were deleted. On day one, play the rest of the video of the pipe bomb. Oh, yes. You know, he needs, one of the reforms I talk about, the gangsters, is you need a central nose to be continuously declassifying.
Starting point is 00:34:01 This is another thing they do. They overclass classify. Yes. And I'm telling you, as a former number two in the IC, they overclassified 50% in the to protect the state. Oh, no, you can't see that. nothing to see here. Gino was a master at it of doing it.
Starting point is 00:34:17 And we still haven't seen half of the Russia Gate report that we wrote. Oh, yeah. Still under lock and key. I just, I'm on how the ICA was originally constructed. We went, we put 10,000 man hours against John Brennan's team that did it. And we found out why they came up with their bogus concluded. But we couldn't sell it to the world because we couldn't talk about it. And the government gangsters came in and buried it.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Wow. Let me tell you this. I think I need a whole pack of cigarettes after that. He is. He's going to be good. And that's the only reason this pardon is happening because Cash Patel. His Glenn Beck likes him so much.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Look what he's definitely going to come after, Hunter Biden. And therefore, we didn't think, we never would have predicted that Adolf Hitler would do something like this. Here's what we need. need to start tweeting. Everybody needs to start tweeting this. Cash Patel, we love you. We love you. Please release all of the information on the Biden administration.
Starting point is 00:35:29 All of the information on Hunter Biden. You can't prosecute him, but you certainly can prosecute everyone that was involved in the cover up. and by the way, we'd like the names on the Jeffrey Epstein list. There's no reason that if that was a bunch of truck drivers, we'd know every truck driver's name. Why don't we know this? And it is too much power in the hands of the FBI director or the president or
Starting point is 00:36:06 whoever might have it. The only way that thing becomes powerless is if it's revealed. Can I ask one question of two constitutional experts here for a moment? I mean, I seriously do. I respect what you guys think about the founders. You guys know them very well. And they did a lot of great things. And one of the great things they did was allow the Constitution to be amended. Would you support a constitutional amendment to limit the pardon power for the president? I think I would. It feels just like straight out of British kingland to me.
Starting point is 00:36:44 I don't like it. I don't think I would. I thought about that a lot because I really don't like this pardon. But all you have to do then is do what they claim the right has done to Hunter Biden. Do what they did to Donald Trump. They just do it to his son. Yeah. No, believe me, I know that I don't know that.

I can't take it. All right. Peter Schweizer is with us now.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Government Accountability Institute, president, host of The Drill Down. He is also written a myriad of books on corruption and he spent a lot of time looking into the Biden crime family, as he calls it. Peter Swizer joins us now. Hi, Peter. Hey, Merry Christmas, Glenn. Great to be with you. Thank you very much. This is not surprising to me. I think this is the least shocking story of probably all time, at least in my lifetime. I mean, wow, he lied to the American people. and he pardoned his son. Why is this so important, Peter? Or is it? Well, it is important, Glenn. And I think you're exactly right. It's not a surprising thing that Joe Biden has done, but that should not take the wind out of the sails of people that are very frustrated and angered by this. And here's why. You're exactly
Starting point is 00:48:42 right, as you said earlier, the mainstream media is reporting that he is pardoned from the tax and the gun form charges. But the immunity actually covers any crime, any crime. It's blanket immunity that he has committed in the last 10 years. And by the way, the only reason they go back to 2014 is that other than offense like murder, everything else is phased out because of the statute of limitations. So Hunter Biden's not going to face any consequence for this. But here's why it's even more important, Glenn. We know that when they filed the federal tax charge, This Department of Justice filed them against Hunter Biden six months ago for which Hunter Biden is now pled guilty. They alluded in those documents to the fact that the proceeds of that money or Hunter didn't pay taxes were part of a foreign influence peddling scheme.
Starting point is 00:49:34 That's the words of the Department of Justice lawyers, a foreign influence peddling scheme that was still under federal investigation. So what that means is that Joe Biden has not only rescued his son. He has now kneecapped an investigation that actually involves Joe Biden himself. Because, of course, the Florin Influence Peddling scheme was Hunter Biden being paid to talk to and to access his father. So I don't know of any other circumstance when it comes to pardons, and there's a long and varied history of it, where we've had this kind of a situation where a president is effectively ending an investigation that would potentially implement. him in criminal activity. So, and is he covered by this, Joe Biden? Well, he, well, what it does is it ends the case, right? It's more looking at Hunter
Starting point is 00:50:29 Biden for a fair investigation, for a fair of crimes. And you're saying he is now not, cannot be charged with those crimes. G.O.J. will end the investigation. I wish there are a way that they continue it in some sort of independent way just to get the facts out of there. But yeah, the criminal investigation is ended. So I don't know how you feel about Cash Patel, but I mean, to me, he is, I hope we go scorched earth on getting him in because he is a guy who wants just to reveal everything. He wants to declassify an awful lot. I think one of the things that the FBI should do if Cash Patel gets in is just declassify all of it. And, you know, this doesn't cover all of the people in the FBI and all of the people in the IRS or DOJ that was part of this delay, delay, delay,
Starting point is 00:51:20 and cover up and scheme to make sure they got away with it. And I think the American people should know absolutely every detail. Even though they cannot go to jail, it should be known what this family did. And who was involved? I agree 100 percent, Glenn. And that's the point, right? Look, you want justice to be done if somebody commits a crime like hunter biden they should serve the time right but ultimately this is not about we're going to get hunter biden because we hate the biden's it's about justice and it's about integrity of our system and i do think that hunter biden committed offenses that you should go to jail for but beside that there is this larger issue and the larger issue is is there a different set of rules for people who are politically connected than there are for
Starting point is 00:52:11 ordinary Americans. And let's remember Hunter Biden, you and I first talked about Hunter Biden back in 2018 when I wrote a book called Secret Empires. And Glenn, we broke that story together. Nobody would know about Hunter Biden except for the fact that I wrote a book. And you said, you know what, this is important people need to know. Here's the thing. The book came out in 2018. Four months later, the investigation was launched into Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings through the entire time, the Biden family has never admitted to anything. They have lied about it. They tried to short-circuit the investigation in the Department of Justice by that ridiculous plea deal that a judge threw out. So there's no sense of remorse here, right? There's no sense of, okay, you know, we made a mistake or, okay, Hunter had a drug problem and yes, he committed these offenses.
Starting point is 00:53:04 These are serious charges. Hunter Biden took in millions of dollars and did not. pay taxes on them. He got a friend to pay the taxes for him only after a grand jury was convened to charge him for failing to pay those taxes. So this is a larger issue, and you're right, people need to know what the cover up is. These things still matter to people. And I think that's the reason you're seeing some people, even on the left, who are Biden supporters, outrage that he's taken this step. So here's the biggest thing. If this was just about drugs and prostitutes, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Even if it was just about not paying taxes, I don't think we'd be having this conversation.
Starting point is 00:53:48 This is truly, I believe, possible treason when you are selling access to the president and you're doing it covertly and you're involved in a cover up where we don't know what deals were made with possible. enemies of our country, that if it's not treason, it is a serious crime that can never be repeated by anybody in office. And if we don't stop this, I mean, I'm convinced this happened because Clinton got away with it with China as well. And they, you nailed it, Glenn. You're exactly right. It started with the Clintons, the globalization of corruption and the Bidens have taken it to another level. Here's the thing. You're right. This is not just about drugs. It's not just about the gun purchasing about taxes. Let's remember. We first talked about this in 2018. Hunter Biden joined a Chinese investment fund that was funded by the Chinese government, and they started acquiring companies in the United States that had national security implications. Correct. They bought a company in Michigan, his investment firm, Chinese got funded investment firm, and that China, as aerospace company, which is their biggest military contractor, together bought a company called
Starting point is 00:55:13 Henegas in Michigan that produces high precision tools, anti-vibration technologies, et cetera, that are vital, vital for national security. And it was Joe Biden and the Obama administration that approved that deal, even though there were serious national security implications. There's another deal where Hunter Biden was involved in a Chinese effort successful to acquire mines in Africa that mine strategic minerals. There was a big competition going on between China and the United States to acquire and control important minerals around the planet. Which side was Hunter Biden on?
Starting point is 00:55:51 He was paid to be on the Chinese side. And the, again, Biden-Obama administration took action favorably that benefited his son to the detriment of the United States. So this is not a quote-unquote victimless crime. Right. It involves paying taxes. It's serious national security implications. And again, to go back to the Clintons,
Starting point is 00:56:11 this is exactly the same kind of stuff that happened when the Clintons okayed the selling of our uranium mines to Russia. Yeah. I mean, exactly. This isn't, this isn't, oh, I got a discount on Chinese food or, you know, I wanted my own panda. This is national security. They have possibly sold our children into slavery because of the technology, and in the
Starting point is 00:56:45 Clinton's case, the uranium that is important to our national defense. Somebody has to pay for that. They do. And let's remember, the money that the Biden's got, we put that at $31 million, and the House Oversight Committee has basically the same number. Let's remember who sent that money. These were not people that ran candy factories in China. They're described as Chinese businessmen.
Starting point is 00:57:13 Every single one of this, I've laid this out in my book read-handed, and we talked about it on your program. Every single one of the five Chinese businessmen who sent millions of dollars to the Biden family, every single one of them has ties to Chinese intelligence. They either formerly worked for Chinese intelligence or they were business partners with the director of the Chinese national security state in intelligence operations. So that's who was sending them money. The Bidens gave them nothing tangible in return. There's no service. There's no product.
Starting point is 00:57:47 There's nothing. They would send them $5 million in interest-free, forgivable loan. Who doesn't want one of those? And what did they do in return? They did something in return because they continued to get money. So you're exactly right. And this is an effort by Joe Biden, not only keep a son out of jail, but to short circuit, any continued investigation. And look, the American people know there's a difference between corruption where a politician takes money from a paving contractor back in their district.
Starting point is 00:58:21 That's wrong and they should be charged. They know there's a difference between that and taking money from a foreign adversary. This is precisely the reason the Democrats tried to come up with the whole Russia collusion thing, right? We're going to pick big bad Russia. We're going to make up a bunch of stuff. Well, in the case of the Biden's, it's actually true. And it involves China and it's real. And we have got to stop this because you and I know, Glenn, we've talked about a corruption a lot over the years.
Starting point is 00:58:47 If you allow this kind of stuff to happen and people to get away with it, Washington, yeah, they're going to imitate it. People are going to imitate it on both sides. to the aisle and we are going to become Ben as well. All right, Peter, hang on just a second. I have to take a one minute break, but I want to ask you if you would think out of the box because I have a feeling that is exactly what President Trump is going to be doing here. And if Cash Patel becomes the head of the FBI, what can we do? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:59:21 What should we do to make sure that we do our best? best to make sure it doesn't happen again by a Democrat or a Republican. Back in just a second with Peter Swizer. First, let me tell you about Lear Capital. Half the world is poised to use a gold-backed currency. The Bricks nations are moving towards it in an effort to unseat the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency. Texas, interestingly enough, wants to do the same thing. With more and more people and institutions rediscovering that gold is one of the most
Starting point is 00:59:54 stable things you can anchor your currency to, the momentum for higher prices is strong. And that's where you come in. Lear Capital can help you to get started protecting your portfolio long term with precious metals. You know, the president just told the BRICS companies 100% tariffs if you try to do this. Now is the time to be thinking ahead and do like the BRICS nations are doing, get some gold to back your account just in case these things happen. Call Lear Capital today, 800-957 gold. 800-9-7 gold. Look for gold or silver.
Starting point is 01:00:34 They're the only gold company with a 24-hour risk-free purchase guarantee. And ask them how you can get up to $15,000 in bonus gold or silver with qualifying purchase. It's Lear Capital, 800-957 gold. 10 seconds, station ID. I can't thank you enough. My daughter can't thank you enough for purchasing her album that went on sale on Monday.
Starting point is 01:01:15 It is still number one on the iTunes chart for Christmas, number I think four or five overall on the iTunes. And it's amazing. It's amazing. It's a great album. You're going to love it. Peter Sweiser is with us.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Peter, tell me, by the way, the name of the album is Home for Christmas. Christmas by Cheyenne Grace. Peter, tell me what we can and should do now that the Trump administration is coming in with hopefully guns ablazing. Yeah, I agree. We need to have serious change in reform, and we need a couple of things. I think we need number one is we need some people like Cash Patel.
Starting point is 01:01:55 I like Cash coming in with a serious reform agenda that is committed to transparency. And what he needs is he needs some people. Chris Schwecker would be an example of this. There are others, former FBI people who know how the building works and know how to make change. And the way to think about it is you've got an air war. You've got to have somebody like cash or others that can go out there and advocate and say, here's what we're going to do and get that done. But there's also trench warfare in additional to air warfare. So you need people that know the building.
Starting point is 01:02:28 So it's got to be radical transparency. it's got to be depoliticized. And there are a couple of bureaus and agencies, the Department of Justice, it's the National Security Division, that was sort of set up or ramped up under Obama, who's become very politicized. They need to be cleaned out.
Starting point is 01:02:45 I don't favor some people want a radical reduction in the size of the FBI, because look, the FBI is still dealing with some various serious things, like terrorism, for example, Islamic terrorism. They're also dealing with espionage from China, and others. And we don't want to be in a situation where you cut back the FBI and then there's a series of terrible attacks. And, you know, Trump gets blamed effectively because he cut back the FBI. So you've
Starting point is 01:03:12 got to reform it and change it. That begins with transparency and then it begins with a process of depoliticizing the building. That means firing people, bringing new people, and changing the culture. The final thing I would add, Glenn, is we need to do what they did in the 70s to the CIA. The CIA, The CIA in the 70s was rife with scandal. They brought in something called Team B. These were outsiders to come in and do a reassessment of the Soviet Union. And Team B came out and said the CIA has group think they're totally wrong about the Soviet Union. They are a real threat and here's how they are a threat.
Starting point is 01:03:48 We need the same thing done with the FBI. And I think if you took, for example, law enforcement officials, the head of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, some of the, you know, sheriffs of some big counties around the United States, you brought them into the FBI in an advisory capacity as outside law enforcement professionals looking in that are not part of group think. That would also change the culture of the building. And I think that would be one way to avoid things like these, the ridiculous memo that said Catholic parents were somehow terrorists in Richmond, Virginia. I would assume that when you say you don't want to reduce the size, you do want to fire all those people that were involved in any of that.
Starting point is 01:04:33 100%. But I think we still have, you know, some people are saying abolish the FBI. The problem is, what do you do if there's a terrorist attack? What do you do about Chinese counterintelligence work? Because they are massively engaged in political and technological espionage in the United States. That's what the FBI does. So if you cut that back, you leave us wide open for enemies. So yes, fire the people that conducted the offenses that were politicized, that were manipulators, by the way,
Starting point is 01:05:02 that were also massive leakers to the media. Those people need to be fired as well, that manipulation. But then bring in new people because we need an FBI that's actually effective and doing the job that it was originally designed to do. Yeah, I will tell you that I think if I think the key here is transparency. I mean, I think that's what people voted for in 08 when, you know, Barack Obama said hope and change. They wanted transparency. They wanted to know what the government was doing. They wanted the bad stuff to stop.
Starting point is 01:05:33 It only got worse. Hopefully, this time we mean it. I think a lot should be exposed. I don't care. I don't know what is left with the JFK thing, but expose it. It's obviously protecting. somebody, probably, some agency, it needs to be exposed.
Starting point is 01:05:57 All of these things. We're living in a world of conspiracy theory because the government is not telling us the truth. It can't be worse than the conspiracy theories. Declassify, declassify, and make as much transparent as possible without endangering national security. Peter, thank you so much. Thanks, Glenn.

Starting point is 01:08:19 I, you know, when I start, talking about sports. It's usually a bad thing. Because I have no interest in sports. However, I have grown an interest in sports because my son, we started watching football together and now the whole family were Kansas City Chiefs fans. And I'm, you know, what was it?
Starting point is 01:08:43 Two weeks ago when they won at the last like two seconds. And I think it was a field goal or something. I can't remember. All their games this year have been like that. Right. Right. And it's usually exciting. And you're like, oh my gosh.
Starting point is 01:08:56 What a, you know. And now it's a little overplayed. You know, it's like, you know, stop. Okay. It's becoming predictable. But last, what was it? Last weekend, I don't remember when it was. But I was watching it with my son.
Starting point is 01:09:11 And it came down to literally, I think, one second or two seconds. And there was a bad call. Forgive me, Stu, you'd know what it is. It wasn't offside. it was some other. It was an illegal shift or something. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:23 Illegal formation. And I thought to myself, that just doesn't seem right. No, I might be the only Kansas state. But you're a chief's fan and you're thinking the reps are on their side. No, because I was like, you know, I want to win, but really that doesn't seem. I would walk. I'd be happy. If I, you know, I'm home.
Starting point is 01:09:49 I'm walking away happy. But I do maybe lose a few minutes sleep that night going, that really wasn't. Really? It was that bad, huh? I thought. Yeah. Am I wrong? Well, I mean, there's a lot of, usually it's the opposite team and other teams in the league complaining about those calls for the chiefs.
Starting point is 01:10:08 Right. Which it does seem like they do pretty well. I'm Andy Reid. I'm not going, no, wait a minute. Right. You know, I'm not saying overturn this. Yeah. I'm just saying they had to go into the locker room a little bit and go.
Starting point is 01:10:20 I mean, let's not say this out loud, but really, come on, guys. We should have lost that game. I mean, every team has this go both ways. I mean, yeah, the Kansas City Chiefs missed a chance to go to the Super Bowl based on just a totally stupid penalty against the Patriots years ago. This has happened to them, too. It's happened, it does seem to have them to those, it seems like teams have those eras. The Patriots were in that era at that time, where every single thing seemed to go their way.
Starting point is 01:10:50 all the time. And now it does feel like the chiefs are in that era. See, I felt that last year. I felt that last year. This year, I'm like, come on. What are you doing? Catch the freaking ball. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:11:04 They don't look like an 11-1 team. No, they don't. They don't. Except in the last four minutes, all of a sudden, they're like, okay, let's get serious. Start playing. Yeah. It is really amazing to watch.
Starting point is 01:11:18 I mean, it seems like it's, It's one of those things. Who wasn't they were playing even? The Raiders, right? You're talking about Black Friday game? Yeah, okay, yeah, Raiders. Yeah, was that the one you're talking about? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Honestly, you could describe most of their games this year as these games were like, gosh, they don't look very good. Oh, they won again. Like, it feels like that every single week. But again, teams just, I don't know if it's a culture thing or what. Teams go through these eras, and they do feel like they'll never be stopped. It does feel that way. I blame Taylor Swift. You do?
Starting point is 01:11:52 I do. Why? Because I think he's probably just having too much sex and he's just too tired. Travis? Yeah, I think he's out there. His life is pretty good. His life is pretty good. I think it's too good.
Starting point is 01:12:03 I think it's a starving artist, you know what I mean? I think you need to say, no. None for you. None for you. You don't catch the ball. None for you. That's it. This is relationship advice.
Starting point is 01:12:16 I am? No, no. This is advice to Andy Reid. to give to Travis. I hope Andy's not that intimately involved in those decisions. I think he should be. I think he should be. Really?
Starting point is 01:12:28 Yeah. And he shouldn't say it to him. He should say it to her. Back off, chick. I think that would be well received. I think Taylor Swift would be well received of how much, how intimate she should be with her boyfriend from an Andy Reed. I think that would be well received.
Starting point is 01:12:45 The Super Bowl is online, man. It's true. Super Bowl. Look, if it was going to help the Eagles win a game, I would be behind all of this. Absolutely. You'd be marching up and down the hallway of every hotel room with a rifle. Get back in your room.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Get back in your room. That's exactly what you'd be doing. Very true. That's fascinating. It is interesting to see you get involved in this stuff. You actually do care. You actually watch the games. But I'm too, I can't, you know, I tweeted this weekend.
Starting point is 01:13:20 I don't know what world I live in. My daughter's, my daughter's Christmas album is number one on iTunes. Wait, what did you just say? What did he just say right there? What was the statement? Christmas, Christmas. Do you get that? Pull that, please.
Starting point is 01:13:38 Can you pull that audio please, Sarah? Thank you. I can't wait for this song. It's going to be so good. No, it's not going to happen. Not at number one just in Christmas. It's got to be number one overall. Number one.
Starting point is 01:13:48 You've already agreed. You just say it. I'm like, so that's happening. The Detroit Lions are good. And the guy from the apprentice is the president and we're excited about it. What the hell is happening to us? It's a weird time. It is a weird time.
Starting point is 01:14:10 It is a very weird time. And add on to that, that Joe Biden might not be all that honest. he said he was not going to pardon his son I won't hear of it 10 times between him and KJP and then he just did it it was almost like the people who were skeptical of him were right the whole time I don't believe you show me one example
Starting point is 01:14:36 just show me one example as we sit here in Normandy your son Hunter is on trial and I know that you cannot speak about an ongoing federal prosecution but let me ask you Will you accept the jury's outcome, their verdict no matter what it is? Yes.
Starting point is 01:14:55 And have you ruled out a pardon for your son? Yes. Okay, give me two examples. Give me just two examples of that. I'm extremely proud of my son Hunter. He has overcome an addiction. He is one of the brightest, most decent men I know. And I am satisfied that I'm not going to do anything.
Starting point is 01:15:17 I said I abide by the jury decision. I will do that and I will not pardon him. Okay, all right, okay. Okay. All right. It's a fluke. Give me, just give me one montage of this. Second one, would the president pardon or commute his son if he's convicted?
Starting point is 01:15:35 So I've answered this question before. It was asked of me not too long ago, a couple of weeks ago. And I was very clear. And I said, no. I go back to the first question of the briefing. I know you said, not a lot's changed since yesterday, and that it's a personal matter. But from a presidential perspective, is there any possibility that the president would end up pardoning his son? No.
Starting point is 01:15:55 You've lost this guy several times that the president would not pardon or commute sentences for his son, Hunter. I just want to make sure that that is not going to change over the next six months. The president's saying it would not. It's still a no. It's still a no. It will always be a no. It's still a no. It will be a no.
Starting point is 01:16:11 It is a no. And I don't have anything else to add. Will he pardon his son? No. Okay. just show it to me in stone tablets. You should add on the fact that there's just this disdain that the question would even be asked of her. How dare you ask me?
Starting point is 01:16:29 I've already answered this question. Come on. Come on. We everyone on the earth knew that he was going to do this. The second it wasn't political, it was not going to cost him anything politically, right? We knew it was going to happen, was not going to happen before the election because it would hurt him politically. And now that he's past the point where it matters politically, He's going to do it.
Starting point is 01:16:48 I'm not surprised at all. The fact that she lied to our face over and over and over again. I'm not surprised at all. I'm not surprised that he lied to us over and over and over and over again because that's who this man is. He's never been a good guy. He's never been a nice guy. He's never been a return to normalcy.
Starting point is 01:17:07 He has always been this terrible, terrible person. That's who he is. You know, he is everything you dislike about Washington politicians is Joe Biden. I won't hear of it enough. Okay, go there. It's just, it's incredible to look at it and watch it play out because we all knew it was coming. And the fact that she would look at that with just that disdain, you know, that, how dare you even ask me that question? Aren't you excited?
Starting point is 01:17:37 Aren't you so very, very excited to not have to put up with the holier than thou crap from these people anymore? I mean, I just don't care. I mean, I have been this way for a while. But now we all don't care. Yeah. You know, when we first had the red hat, you'd look at somebody who was wearing the MAGA hat and you'd be like, you're going to Chicago? Are you out of your mind, man? Well, God bless you, man.
Starting point is 01:18:09 You go for it. We'll make sure we take care of your family after you don't come back from Chicago. Okay. So you're unfamiliar, Glenn. Chicago is MAGA country. You forgot about that. Of course it is. But now it's like, I don't give a flying crap about any of it.
Starting point is 01:18:27 Oh, you're wearing a mask. You're mentally ill. Mentally ill. I mean, and you don't have to listen to any, because it's all going to be exposed. What's his name, how do you say his name, Bacaria? Oh, J. Petitaria. Oh, love that guy. Yeah, he's a good pick.
Starting point is 01:18:47 A good pick? Yes. That is like Pornomusing. No, no, don't do that. Don't do that again. It's like conservative porn. It is.
Starting point is 01:19:01 It's like there's no naked bodies or anything. No. But when you just, when you think about it, it's like, oh my gosh. And he's a smart, accomplished guy who's a serious guy. Right. This is not. And he's at the door with. Box of pizza.
Starting point is 01:19:19 I mean, I'm just... It always comes back to the pizza with him. That's as far as you ever made it in a form. That's as far as I'm pizza. He's already excited. I'm going to turn it off and I'm like, I got to order some pizza. I'm hungry. We got to go over some of the picks here from Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:19:37 Are you a good pick or a bad pick? I have an issue with one. That's interesting. Because there's a couple I'm not excited about, I have to admit. I have it in three categories. I have it in. Oh, yeah. Category number one.
Starting point is 01:19:55 Category number two, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt. Okay, benefit of doubt, okay. And then category three is, what the, are you thinking? I didn't know it was going to be that harsh. What the are you thinking? Yes, yes. We'll go over that here in just a second.
Starting point is 01:20:15 Stand by. First let me tell you about Car Shield.

Starting point is 01:22:32 Mm-hmm. Okay. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Number two is, I'm going to give you a benefit of the doubt on that one. Okay. The third one is, what the, are you thinking? And then the other one is over my dead body. Wow. Yeah. I've got a couple of those. I got a couple of those. So let's go through them. Let's see. We have Cash Patel. Oh, yeah. Let's see. We have Batacharya.
Starting point is 01:23:02 Oh, yeah. Let's see. We have Brendan Carr for the FCC. Oh, yeah. We have RFK. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt, but keep your eye on him. Okay. I'd find myself south of that particular border on RFK.
Starting point is 01:23:26 What's the last one? The last one is over my dead body. I'm pretty much there with RFK. Really? I'm not saying he has no role in this at all, but I don't want him anywhere near a $2 trillion budget that he's controlling. Yeah, I can see that. Again, I know I'm in the minority.
Starting point is 01:23:42 I feel like at this point. I just feel Trump has said, I know he's got issues. So I think he's going to keep an eye or two on him. I think he's going to need a whole department just to keep an eye on him, which is why I wouldn't put him in the position. Tulsi, where do you think I stand on Tulsi? I think you'd think, oh, yeah, you like Tulsi a lot. I love Tulsa.
Starting point is 01:24:02 Yeah. I talked to somebody in Intel. Okay. And they told me all the national secrets. No, they said they were concerned about her. And I said, why? I think she's really honest. And he said, she is not somebody who has experience with Intel.
Starting point is 01:24:21 And she's coming at it as a soldier and does not have the experience to know where the bodies are buried. now I'm hoping because she's smart enough to go I'm not taking your word for it hopefully she'll surround herself with people who know where the bodies are buried but their concern was she's not at a high enough level of understanding of how deep the deep state
Starting point is 01:24:48 and how day she's more like Trump the first time around you know what I mean okay so where do you put her then I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt on that one because I like her the DEA guy over my dead body. This is the guy that was putting
Starting point is 01:25:06 pastors in jail and saying, lockdown, you're not wearing a mask. You gotta stay six feet away. We're closing your church. No, I don't think so. No. I have a guest on who's going to tell you one of the most amazing stories

Brittany Patterson is on with us now and also her attorney wanted to make sure that she wasn't saying anything that is going to cost her in court. David DeLucus is with the Parents USA. He's an executive director and general counsel. Brittany, tell this audience your story.
Starting point is 01:29:29 What happened to you? Basically, I have two kids at homeschool and two kids that go to public school. And anytime I leave the house to do run an errand or, you know, take somebody to an appointment, the homeschool kids always get the choice to stay or go. So on this particular day, I had to take my older son to an appointment. And so I had to pick him up at school and then take him. And I thought that both of my homeschool kids were going to come. But when I went back in to holler for them, Thorne didn't answer.
Starting point is 01:30:06 I waited a minute, you know, hollered again, didn't answer. So I figured he just didn't want to come. And, you know, he was somewhere out on the property or somewhere in the house where he couldn't hear me or something like that. So I just went ahead and left and went and picked up my son, took him to the doctor. And while we were at the doctor, I got a call from a sheriff's deputy saying that she had found Saurin less than a mile from our house in our little tiny town of Mineral Bluff. What's the population of that town? So I don't know exactly, but it's like 350, I think, 370, something like that. 370 people?
Starting point is 01:30:47 Yes. Okay. All right. So huge metropolis. It's a four-way stop sign. That's all there is. Okay. There's not even a red light or anything.
Starting point is 01:30:54 So anyway, you know, she started asking me questions. If I knew he was there, of course I said no, because I didn't. And, you know, she seemed very concerned that something terrible was going to happen to him. I was not concerned. So basically she ended up putting her in her car and bringing him back to my house. And my dad, just for some background, my dad lives in our basement apartment, and he's pretty much here all the time because he has a physical disability so he can't drive. So there's basically always an adult in the house with my kids. Not that there needs to be, but there always is.
Starting point is 01:31:37 Okay, and I just want to make sure your kids are 11, 12, 14, and 16. And at the time, Soren, the child that was out walking, was 10, correct? Correct. Okay. Yeah, he was a few days away from turning 11, but he was still 10. So they brought him home and dropped him back off at home with my dad downstairs, which is exactly the same way that I left him. and they left, and so he was here, you know, without me or without the police,
Starting point is 01:32:11 exactly the way I left him for about 20 minutes before I got home. And so, you know, of course, I had to talk with him because I do tell all my kids, you know, if you want to go somewhere, just send me a text, you know, call me, let me know where you're going to go. So that way I just kind of can keep tabs on you. And he obviously didn't do that. So, you know, I gave him a little talking to about that. And then we just kind of went about our day. and about five hours later, around 6.30 is when they showed up to arrest me.
Starting point is 01:32:44 Okay. So, yeah, hang on. I just want to bring people up to speed here. So you know who you're listening to. She was a kindergarten teacher. She has a master's degree in education leadership and curriculum instruction. Professional teaching license in Montana and Georgia. her husband, Josh, been in education a total of 17 years at all levels,
Starting point is 01:33:10 has been the superintendent of schools for seven years. He has a doctorate degree in educational leadership. She left education to go into real estate because the demands of the kids' competitive sports wasn't working with her teaching schedule. And that's who you're dealing with. So you're not dealing with people who don't know what they're doing children. know, they're teachers, they got a doctorate, they know so much more. This is, these are professional people that have spent their lifetime teaching children and being
Starting point is 01:33:49 around children. So when they came to your door in this town of, how many people again? 300 and, about 370. About 370 people. So, you know, one of them leaving the. the other 369 at home in their beds. What did they say to you? They didn't really say anything other than they asked me to step outside and put my hands
Starting point is 01:34:18 behind my back. So at that point, I asked why. And the female officer said, because you're under arrest. And so again, I asked, what am I under arrest for? And for the second time, I didn't get a straight answer. She said, for the incident we spoke about earlier. So then I asked again, so what am I under arrest for? And she said, child and, or reckless endangerment.
Starting point is 01:34:43 I'm sorry, it was reckless endangerment, which my attorney has told me not even a that exists in Georgia. It could have just been a, you know, her miss speaking. But the point is that, and at that point I was going to ask, you know, what was reckless, you know, what led to this? And I was going to ask for a warrant that they basically, you know, forced me to turn around, put my hands by my back and told me they weren't going to answer any more of my questions. Oh, okay. That sounds like the Soviet Union. So when I went to...
Starting point is 01:35:14 Yes. Go ahead. David. Yeah. And Brits notes from the body cam, what we heard is Britt said, last time I checked, it wasn't illegal for a kid to walk to the store. And remarkably, the deputy immediately says, it is when they're 10.
Starting point is 01:35:37 And I assure everybody, it's not illegal for a 10-year-old to be out and about walking, not in the state of Georgia. It's not. So go ahead, Britt. But, yeah, for her, the deputy, did you say, it is illegal when they're 10. I grew up in a different time. Let's, you know, make no mistake. I'm 60, but I think at about six, I went to the store for a pack of cigarettes for my dad. I mean, at 10, at 10, you could have bought a gun and bullets.
Starting point is 01:36:09 But now, you know, God forbid, in a town where in my town of 450 people, kids can drive trucks down the road because it's a farming community. Stop treating children like they're morons. Anyway, go ahead. Yeah. Well, the point I was going to make is that when I went to. jail, I still didn't understand, even though I had asked multiple times, I didn't know really what I was being arrested for. I didn't find that out until I got to jail, had already been stripped down and changed and fingerprinted and body scanned and all that stuff. And then they hand me the arrest warrant. So at that point, I was able to read it and understand, you know, what, what they thought was the justification for arresting me.
Starting point is 01:37:02 Can I just ask, what is this sheriff's name? The sheriff, not the deputy, the sheriff of your county. So the sheriff of Sanning County is Dane Kirby, and he's been the sheriff for quite some time. I don't know exactly how many years, but several terms. Probably time for him to go away. When is he up for reelection? You know? I think.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Yeah. Yeah, it's not necessarily matters. I mean, you know, the people in the county can likely become informed and decide what they're going to do. But we don't take a stance about his election or his culpability. No, no, no, I'm not suggesting you do. I am. I am, I am an advocate of sheriffs that follow the Constitution. Sheriffs are there to protect the people of their county from out of control.
Starting point is 01:38:00 government entities. If they become out of control, the people have the right and the duty to remove them. So if you happen to live in this county and your sheriff is Dane Kirby, I don't know what you're doing, but I'd be out, I'd be sent,
Starting point is 01:38:19 I'd be not, there's only 300 and, what, 70-some doors to knock on, I'd be knocking on every single one, including his, and saying, we need to get this sheriff recalled. But anyway, I digress. It's a bigger county than 370, but yeah, I get your point, and it's an extraordinarily valid point.
Starting point is 01:38:41 Hey, let me throw this in while we're talking about following the Constitution. Really, really significant. The statute, right, was charged with violating, is actually called reckless conduct. And, hey, in 1997, the George Supreme Court held that statute, unconstitutional. because it's too vague and gives law enforcement too much power. So how about that? 1997, you'd think in, what's the math here, 27 years, law enforcement in Fannie County would figure out that that statute doesn't apply?
Starting point is 01:39:17 Is it any of this county again in Georgia? Fanon, F-A-N-N-I-N-N-I-N? F-A-N-N-I-N? Yeah. Fanon County in Georgia. Okay. So what's next for you? Well, right now we're just kind of in limbo.
Starting point is 01:39:43 There's not been any real communication from the county. There's been no offers put on the table or anything like that. So really kind of it's up to them, you know, what happens next. They have multiple options that they could, you know, decide on. But in the meantime, you know, David and I have just been kind of raising awareness because before this happened to me, I was living in the dark. I had no idea that this was even possible to happen to anybody. And since I kind of went public and, you know, I've just been getting comments. I've even gotten some cards in the mail and emails and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:40:30 from people all over the country who some of them have found themselves in a similar situation, you know, at some point. And so it kind of opened my eyes that this is something that does happen that I think just a lot of us parents didn't realize was even a possibility of happening. And so I'm just kind of trying to bring that to light that, you know, we do still have to, you know, kind of fight for our parental rights and make sure that those are something that we get to hold on. on to because I found that no matter which side of the aisle people are on, whether they want to be really overprotective or whether they want to let their kids, you know, be wild and free, both sides don't really want the government involved. They want to be able to make those decisions as parents. And so it's just been interesting to see that even though, you know, we might have, you know, philosophical differences on, on how to approach parenting, that we can still
Starting point is 01:41:25 agree on that same thing. I mean, if you're sending your kid out to go to the store to pick up some extra ingredients so you can cook crack in the basement. That might be a problem. But letting your kid go for a walk to the store is absolutely normal. The country is out of control when it comes to everybody and everything is a danger. It's not. We're creating a society where kids are still kids when they're 30 years old and they don't know what to do.
Starting point is 01:41:57 Give your kids credit. You're on point there. Absolutely. Let me throw a plug in for an organization called Let Grow.org, and they publish statistics and advocate for parents providing more responsibility and freedom for their children because it's better for kids. And one of the things they do is dispel this notion that kids are going to be kidnapped and snatched off the side of the road, so you should never let your kid be alone. CDC says, to the extent any of us trust the CDC,
Starting point is 01:42:29 But the CDC, far and away, the most danger that a child is in is when they're in an automobile. So what did this deputy do? Put him in a car and driving them, during which could have been in a wreck and even maybe more dangerous. Could have been one of those calls. Shot fired, officer down. This deputy would have wheeled right to the scene and taken this kid right into an active shooter. Don't put kids in the back of a car because you're going to get them a ride home. Leave them alone.
Starting point is 01:43:06 It's unbelievable. Thank you both. I appreciate it. The website where you can find out more, and I imagine you're looking for more people to share their stories and to get involved, is parents USA.org, parentsUSA.org. David, Brittany, thank you very much. I really want to keep track of this.

Starting point is 01:49:43 Huh? How I'm supposed to get home? Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone? Huh? How I'm supposed to get home?
Starting point is 01:49:52 I mean, you might think this song isn't great. It sounds terrible. But imagine how good it would be if he had a different version of it. Like a version of, I can't sing this song. I can't sing this song. It doesn't matter whether you can or not. You are. No.
Starting point is 01:50:11 No. The album is not number one on iTunes. You promised before you went on away on vacation for Thanksgiving. Yeah. that if Cheyenne's holiday CD called Home for Christmas went to number one on iTunes or Spotify, yes. You would participate in a duet
Starting point is 01:50:30 with your daughter. What is she going to do in that? I mean backup. She can sing backup. She can't lead it, but she can sing backup. And you would do a version of that song. How would you even do that?
Starting point is 01:50:46 I mean, that's not a song. song. Did I make the promise? I'm sorry, did I made the promise. I made a promise. Number one on iTunes and it's not number, it's number five on iTunes. It is number five overall on iTunes. It's the number one Christmas CD. Well, if you want to get into subcategories, I don't remember discussing subcategories. I just remember saying number one. It's interesting to say that because I don't remember you saying subcategories earlier today when you said this.
Starting point is 01:51:11 I don't know what world I live in. My daughter's, my daughter's Christmas album is number one on iTunes. Oh, it is? There was an asterix there. No, there was not. There was an, I'm sorry you didn't see it. I'm sorry it wasn't printed for you,
Starting point is 01:51:28 but as I was saying that, I immediately thought, Asteris, you know, some would say a good dad. A good dad. Would stand by the promises he's made for his daughter. And you, apparently, you're going to do the opposite of that.
Starting point is 01:51:44 And you know what? it would have been so good, but darn it, Wicked came out. It's going to sound good at you. Seriously. There is nobody that could arrange this into a song. Oh, we can find somebody. No, no, no, you can. There's no one.
Starting point is 01:52:04 We may have done a little work. What does that mean? A little. I mean, because I know you've got, you're pretty busy guy. Yeah. Got a lot going on in your life. A lot going on. You know, so we did.
Starting point is 01:52:13 we've done some work to to help you with the arrangement and that's all I can say at this time that's all I can say at this time but I will say that you're not going to be I'm not going to leave you out there you're going to have to come up play all the instruments yourself that would be ridiculous that would be ridiculous that would be ridiculous
Starting point is 01:52:32 I wouldn't do that to you seeing that I don't play a single instrument right and that's why it's not or do I sing so I think you could sing oh do you I mean look your daughter has an incredible amount of talent yes She does
Starting point is 01:52:47 She had to get it from somewhere She did You may have been part of some of it Somehow I don't know how But I do know that Regardless of whether you can sing or not Tell me what genre is this going to be
Starting point is 01:53:04 Is this going to be Like a torch Kind of standard Is this going to be a rock? I can say it's completely We were thinking maybe lean in country a little bit I feel like you could do a country version of that. Do we have where to hell my phone?
Starting point is 01:53:19 I mean, I think people can hear the twang in Lizzo's voice here. Where to hell my phone? Where to hell my phone? Huh? How I'm supposed to get home? It's a great question, and you could answer it. I can't tell. I remember hearing this the first time.
Starting point is 01:53:37 My wife and I were in the car. We were driving to Fort Worth, and my daughter had, on her playlist, this just came up. And we were driving in the car. And I looked at, Tanya, went, what the hell is this? What is this? We listened to it a thousand times we could not believe.
Starting point is 01:54:00 It was a real song. Imagine what people will say when they're hearing your song, your version. Imagine what they'll say when their daughter's playlist has Glenn Beck as Lizzo. I am not your trained monkey. No, you just made promise. is on national radio. I did. That's what you did. And I think I think there's audio of me
Starting point is 01:54:21 specifically saying it can't be it can't be just a single genre. That does not exist. I promise you. You said number one and you know every single message I got this whole weekend on social media was all
Starting point is 01:54:36 about the duet they can't wait for. They're excited about the people are excited to hear your artistic take on Lizzo's song. So you know how I am. No, please. You know how I am. You know how I am.
Starting point is 01:54:53 I can do just pretty much anything I set my mind to. If I can see it finished before we start. Would you agree with that? When I say, I got it. I got it. I see it. I can do it. I can't see any way to get that.
Starting point is 01:55:12 to be a song. Put on your glasses because you have no choice but to see it. Because the, you know what? The American people came through.
Starting point is 01:55:25 They came through for you. They came through for Cheyam. They came through for this country in November. And now they're coming through for Lizzo. This was just a shameless promotion
Starting point is 01:55:36 for my daughter. That's all it was. Let's be honest about it. You didn't think this would actually. occur. I mean, you knew she had a great might. You knew she has the talent to be number one, but you know, it's their
Starting point is 01:55:48 first release. Like, what are the odds? I didn't think she'd be beating Michael Bubley. No, around Christmas. That's not common. No. That's not possible. So, but it is possible. Right. It did occur. And now you will pay the debt. Are you sure it did? Or is
Starting point is 01:56:04 this a manipulation of the algorithm just because Apple hates me? think about it. You think Tim Cook like went in there finagled the numbers
Starting point is 01:56:17 just to embarrass you? Jack that up. Jack it up. Well, I would maybe believe that except the results are very similar on Spotify. So maybe this...
Starting point is 01:56:25 Where is it on Spotify? How do you even check the chart on Spotify? It's very high. I don't know. I don't have it in front of me. It's starting to get little dots on the,
Starting point is 01:56:34 on the songs like what people's favorites are. And the audience, you have good taste. You have really good taste. I'm just saying. I just want to point it out. You have good taste. I agree they have good taste.
Starting point is 01:56:46 I will say you don't, it doesn't really matter whether they have good taste or not for your particular situation. You've locked yourself into a verbal contract that had been broadcast in the national airwaves. I happen to know the new FCC commissioner. So if you, if you were neck on this particular promise, we will have recourse. Really? Yes. Yes. you will have false advertising is that what you're suggesting absolutely and i mean we could file all sorts
Starting point is 01:57:19 of complaints about your broadcast and i don't want to do that now i'm very my schedule is very booked very very booked right now gosh i you're when do i when when do i have to have this done well obviously before christmas it's a christmas song i mean it would go really not a christmas song you don't think no i feel i feel Like, where to hell my phone? Yeah, where to have my phone? I think it's Christmas song, right? Yeah, really?
Starting point is 01:57:48 I think so. Can you play it and add jingle bells to it? As then maybe you can get away with it. So, I mean, we know it's coming out soon. When you'll have this done, we'll get the music to you. You can just, I mean, you can just get into a studio and knock that thing out. I mean, I'm not saying you have to obsess over it. You produced a number one Christmas CD from you.
Starting point is 01:58:15 your daughter, Cheyenne Grace, available now. Yeah, I'm just saying that... We don't have to necessarily put that much time into it. I know you guys worked on that for a long time. Yeah, yeah. But you do have to do it. Yeah. And you do have to do it very soon. I mean, unless I can produce tape that shows you specifically
Starting point is 01:58:31 that asterisk. What asterisk? I know you are saying you are going to produce tape. I know you're going to say that. Glenn, I got you on tape saying. I do have you on tape saying. We just played it. Yeah, well, that... You didn't hear the asterisk.
Starting point is 01:58:48 When we made the deal, I specifically said, number one, iTunes, in the overall category, not under Christmas. I remember that. That is definitely not true. You can remember it any way you want. That's what I heard. That's what America heard, quite honestly. Because it would have been really like, you know, like you would have been a worm to do it then. But I mean, now it's even worse after everyone heard you say the opposite.
Starting point is 01:59:18 Multiple times. All you have to do. All you have to do is just make it number one. That's all you have to do. And then the argument's over. Will it be over or will you try another way to... No, it just has to beat... It just has to be wicked.
Starting point is 01:59:30 That's all it has to do. It's not that big of a deal. It's wicked. It's not like it's a world... I just want to put this thing on a worldwide hit. I'm going to open up every device of mine and just put that album on repeat. all day today. Just to do my little part.
Starting point is 01:59:48 I might not even be in the same room. I'm just going to keep playing it over and over and over and over and over. That's what you got to do. That's what you got to do. I want to play fair here, Stu. All you have to do is be wicked. You're not playing fair. You are moving the goalposts after the games have begun.
Starting point is 02:00:06 Look, if there's one thing I learned today, I will not pardon my son. All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor. I want to hear it as country. You produce it up as country. You give me the bed. Yeah. I want to hear it.
Starting point is 02:00:29 No problem. As soon as it beats Wicked. If you're living with pain in your life, I bet you're getting tired of having to give things up, everybody else around you. Hey, by the way, let me ask you this. How come I tried to listen to the album on TV. yesterday on my Apple, you know, TV?
Starting point is 02:00:46 Yeah. I couldn't find it. They had the charts, and I went to the charts, and I couldn't find it. Why? Yes, they're screwing with the algorithm. Screwing me, making sure I don't have to see it and sing his stupid song on television. But then on the other chart, screwing me the other way to make sure, I'm telling you, Apple, evil. Anyway, if you're living with pain in your life, you've got to be tired of giving things up.
Starting point is 02:01:19 Don't. Don't. I mean, I'm in so much pain most of the time that I could just, I don't know if I could make it to the microphone to sing where to hell my phone.

Tomorrow we get into what the hell does it mean that all the children are jingle belly. I don't know. But that's what this show is here for, okay, to answer deep, deep questions like that.
Starting point is 02:03:21 On tomorrow's program, we're going to go through all of the appointments that Donald Trump has made. Overall, what is your feeling? Why are you type? You are just eating some business done. Don't worry about it. the overall your feeling of the appointments. Yeah, I mean, we had the four categories.
Starting point is 02:03:45 Yeah. Benefit of the doubt being the second highest one. That's where I put most of these people, I feel like. Yeah. I mean, Trump, I think deserves. First of all, I think that's the right stance to take for most presidents. You give them the benefit of the doubt. Right.
Starting point is 02:03:58 If they won, they get the people they get. But this is different in a way. Because, you know, when you want to do that for any president, comes in. This guy's, this guy has already been in. And then he has learned a lot. Yeah. I mean, I've sat in rooms with him recently where he's peppered with questions from, you know, insiders, deep, you know, deep thinkers. I don't know how I got into the room, but I was just sitting there watching them. And no matter what he was asked, he knew, he knew deeply. Do you remember when he didn't know what the nuclear triad was? Oh, yeah, that was in one of the debates. Yeah, back in
Starting point is 02:04:35 2016. There's no reason he would ever know that. He was a business guy. Oh, he knows it all now. And I think he's, yeah, I think he's really earned the right for the benefit of the doubt. But you're not telling you're not saying he's sharp as attack behind closed doors, are you? Last time I heard that, it didn't work out well at all. No, he's, he's absolutely fine and he will never pardon his son. I'll tell you that right now. He's not running circles around his 20-year-old age, is he? Oh, no. Yeah, no, I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt on these picks. There's some that I don't like.
Starting point is 02:05:13 Most of them, I think, are good or very good. I mean, some of them have been very good. I mean, name the ones that you have heard from other, I mean, I go back to Reagan. I mean, Bill Bennett, his Department of Education. Back then, that was like, yeah. But he didn't really do anything. I mean, obviously shows like ours cared. cared. And the show was not on
Starting point is 02:05:35 in the 80s, obviously. But like, you know, you did a show. You were two. You did a show in the 80s, though. You didn't talk a lot about Bill Bennett culturally. You'd be surprised. I don't think. Maybe you did. You did. But like,
Starting point is 02:05:49 I would say it wasn't a cultural phenomenon to talk about those things. It was only political obsessives who thought about that. I don't think that's the case anymore. Yeah, I don't think it was, we never talked about game changers. I mean, real game changer. Ronald Reagan was a game changer,
Starting point is 02:06:07 but it wasn't like blow the whole thing up and start from scratch, you know? And I don't mean blow the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. No, yeah. Just blow the administrative state up and do exactly what what's his name,
Starting point is 02:06:29 Ramoswamy and Elon Musk are doing. You know? that that's just so outrageously great that alone that's exciting is exciting yeah yeah there's a lot to be excited and optimistic for which is the nice place to be i don't feel like we've been there in a i don't know four years or so four yeah i don't think i've been there for 25 years all right we'll see you tomorrow stay safe may god save the republic
