Death Wish?! Trump Threatens Release of Epstein Client List | Guests: Michael Shellenberger & Peter Schweizer | 9/4/24

migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more.

Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start.

It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month.

It prevents on average eight to nine headache days a month versus six to seven for placebo.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck, and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache.

Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness.

Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection.

Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Why wait?

Ask your doctor, visit BotoxchronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment

and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

From the Mountain West, we're glad that you've joined us today.

There are a few things that I want to talk to you about.

One is

Eric Weinstein.

He was on the Modern Wisdom podcast.

I don't know if you saw this.

It was a very good podcast.

But

Eric said something that I think is worth repeating, that he's not sure Trump will be allowed to win.

We go there in 60 seconds.

First,

let me ask you a question.

Can I ask you a question, man?

Let me ask you a question.

If you're getting up every day, are you living the life you want to live?

Are you doing the things you want to do?

And if not, is it because you're living with pain?

See, mine, I used to be pain and then I just started heroin.

And now I don't live my fullest life because I'm addicted to heroin.

No, that was one way I was thinking about going.

And then my wife said, hey, before heroin, why don't you try Relief Factor?

And I was like, really?

That won't work.

And it did.

And it doesn't addict me like heroin would.

So I can live my best life, you know, and not trying to, you know, fish drugs out of a toilet at some point.

It's Relief Factor.

It's a 100% drug-free daily supplement that helps your body fight pain.

You try to do these commercials different every day for the rest of your life.

It's developed by doctors who uses a unique formula of natural ingredients that addresses the inflammation in your body, which is where the pain starts.

So go to relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief.

800, the number four relief.

Save on your first order.

800, the number four relief.

Fight pain naturally with Relief Factor.

Now we're going to get sued by all the drug cartels.

I know.

I know.

Hey,

you're giving misinformation about our very good product, heroin.

Yeah, all right.

Uh, hello, Stu.

How are you?

Glenn, very well.

How are you?

Yeah.

Oh, well, I'm very good.

Uh, let me, uh, I mean, for being strung out on heroin, let me play.

Did you hear Eric Weinstein what

the podcast he was on, Modern Wisdom?

Did you hear me?

Did you hear the clip?

I was reading about it, though.

Okay.

You really, this is a good podcast that you should probably listen to.

A lot of wisdom there.

A lot of wisdom.

And it's kind of what we've been saying for a while now.

But I don't know.

Eric says it and it just seems much, much smarter.

It's kind of like, you know, Eric is much, much smarter, but if he had an English accent, it'd be game over.

Everybody would listen to everything he has to say.

So here he is on Donald Trump.

Listen.

I don't know whether Donald Trump will be allowed to become president.

What do you mean by that?

I think that there's a remarkable story, and we're in a funny game, which is: are we allowed to say what that story is?

Because to say it, to analyze it, to name it is to bring it

into view.

I think we don't understand why the censorship is behaving the way it is.

We don't understand why it's in the shadows.

We don't understand why our news is acting in a bizarre fashion.

So let's just set the stage, given that that was in February.

There is something

that I think Mike Benz has just referred to as the rules-based international order.

It's an interlocking series of agreements, tacit understandings, explicit understandings, clandestine understandings about how the most important structures keep the world free of war and keep markets open.

And there has been a system in place, whether understood explicitly

or

behind the scenes or implicitly, that says that the purpose of the two American parties is to prune the field of populist candidates so that whatever two candidates exist in a face-off

are both acceptable to that world order.

So what you're trying to do from the point of view, let's take it from the point of view of, let's say, the State Department, the intelligence community, the Defense Department,

and major corporations that have to do with international issues from arms trade to, oh, I don't know, food.

They have a series of agreements that are fragile and could be overturned if a president entered the Oval Office who didn't agree with them.

And the mood of the country was, why do we pay taxes into these structures?

Why are we hamstrung?

Why aren't we a free people?

So what the two parties would do is that they would run primaries, you'd have populist candidates, and you'd pre-commit the populist candidates to support the candidates who won the primaries.

As long as that took place and you had two candidates that were both acceptable to the international order, that is, that they aren't going to rethink NAFTA or NATO or what have you,

we called that democracy.

And so democracy was the illusion of choice, what's called magician's choice, where the choice is not actually, you know, pick a card, any card, but somehow the magician makes sure that the card that you pick is the one that he knows.

In that situation, you have magician's choice in the primaries, and then you'd have the duopoly field two candidates, either of which was acceptable, and you could actually afford to hold an election.

And the populace would vote, and that way the international order wasn't put at risk every four years because you can't have alliances that are subject to the whim of

the people in plebiscites.

So, under that structure, everything was going fine until 2016.

And then, the first candidate ever to not hold

any position in the military nor position in government in the history of the Republic to enter the Oval Office, Donald Trump, broke through the primary structure.

So, then there was a full court press.

Okay, we only have one candidate that's acceptable to the international order.

Donald Trump will be under

constant pressure that he's a loser, he's a wild man, he's an idiot, and he's under the control of the Russians.

And then he was going to be, you know, a 20-to-one underdog.

And then he wins.

And there was no precedent for this.

They learned their lesson.

You cannot afford to have candidates who are not acceptable to the international order and continue to have these alliances.

This is an unsolved problem.

Now,

I've been saying for a long time,

they're going to kill him

because it upsets their plans and he's the one standing in the way because he won't play their game.

Now, Eric may have

expressed this

in a more understandable way, but he's absolutely right.

100%

right.

And that's why, honestly, they're playing the game in the Democratic Party where you didn't get a choice.

You didn't have a primary.

You didn't have a primary.

And that's because the president's going to run.

But the president can't run.

So now you didn't have a primary and you have the most unpopular candidate ever.

She's never been, she was never popular.

She wasn't popular just two months ago, but now, oh my gosh, she's hung the moon and the stars.

And we don't know anything about what she plans on doing.

Okay, all right.

But she won't upset the international order.

She won't upset the

plans

that places like the WEF and the United Nations and now all of the Western leadership has come up with.

But you'll notice those plans are extremely unpopular with the people all around the world.

Every Western country now is in turmoil because they're doing the same thing to them that they're doing to us, and that is collapse us.

Now,

I believe this to be true.

I believe they'll do anything to stop him from winning.

They would put us into chaos.

They would put us into civil war before they would have him win.

They put us in World War before they'd have him.

And Donald Trump, I just, please, Mr.

President,

please, please, they've tried to kill you once.

Please,

don't make it worse.

Don't make it worse.

Yesterday, he was on a podcast, and he was on the Lex Friedman podcast, and

he got a lot of questions from Lex on, you know, foreign policy, et cetera, et cetera, the future going forward.

You know,

he started talking about, you know, the Kennedy files and how the Kennedy files he kept classified because

it was protection of people, which I'm not sure is exactly accurate.

I don't know what's in the Kennedy files, but I've talked to people who have seen it, and they have led me to believe that it is not about people.

It's about institutions, but who knows?

But Trump said, you know, I probably would not release the Kennedy files.

However,

Stu, what's the one thing you could say as a presidential candidate that's pretty much guaranteed that

you're dead?

Well

you're going to release the Epstein files.

Yes.

Yes.

And that would be.

Yes.

Yes.

But I am going to release the Epstein files and the client list.

It's very strange for a lot of people that the list of clients that went to the island has not been made public.

Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it?

said Donald Trump.

It probably will be.

He said, I'll take a look at it

on the client list.

But yeah, I'm inclined to do the Epstein thing.

I'd have no problem with releasing that list.

Okay, all right.

All right.

Remember, Donald Trump is definitely not suicidal.

But if they could put him in jail, he might become suicidal and some cameras might go down.

Oh, my gosh.

It's happened before.

This is.

Oh, it did?

Yeah, yeah.

It's happened before.

Really?

But not related to Epstein.

No, no.

I'm sure not.

Oh, okay.

The philanthropist?

No, no, no.

The philanthropist.

Yeah.

Do we have this clip here?

Do you want to hear it, Claude?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Here we go.

But a lot of big people went to that island.

But fortunately, I was not one of them.

It's just very strange for a lot of people that the list of clients that went to the island has not been made public.

Yeah,

it's very interesting, isn't it?

Probably will be, by the way.

So if you're able to, you'll be.

Yeah, I'd certainly take a look at it.

Now, Kennedy's interesting because it's so many years ago.

You know, they do that for danger, too, because, you know, it endangers certain people, et cetera, et cetera.

So Kennedy

is very different from the Epstein thing.

But yeah, I'd be inclined to do the Epstein.

I'd have no problem with it.

It's currently with the FBI,

and it's under the control of one person at the FBI.

So what could possibly go wrong with that?

If it disappears, that would be unfortunate, wouldn't it, Stu?

And completely unexpected.

Yeah, it'd be shocking.

That would be a shocking development.

It would be.

Look, sometimes people lose documents, you know?

Happens all the time.

Whoops, I just dropped it in the shredder.

Yeah.

My daughter lost her homework just last week, and

it was a rough day at school.

I think

this happens to people all

the time.

There are shredders all over the place.

Sometimes you get up in the morning and you almost act like you're thinking, I'm going to step into the shower and you almost step into the shredder.

It happens.

It happens.

It happens.

It happens.

All the time.

All the time.

Another example is, I mean, you noted yesterday that your neighbor's property was on fire.

What happened if a fire broke out?

What happened?

Where that document was?

Oh, man.

In the safe.

In the safe at the FBI.

Yeah, sometimes fires can happen anywhere, Glenn.

Sometimes there's little fires that just start up in safes.

I knew we shouldn't have put it in the same safe where we keep the matches and the gremlin.

Exactly.

I don't know what we were thinking.

What were we thinking?

Ah, that's too bad.

Hey, some misinformation here I want to point out.

View fans left divided by major changes to ABC's daytime show as Whippy Goldberg and co-hosts return for a brand new season.

Just want to give you,

you know, people say it all the time.

How do you know when a story is true or not?

This one's pretty easy to point out.

Just really in the first three letters, the view fans.

There are no fans of the view.

And I would just like to correct that story and make sure that you know we are on top of misinformation.

All right, let me tell you about Lear Capital.

Take a little journey with me through time, will you?

It's September 1929.

Man named Roger Babson has just predicted that very soon the stock market is going going to crash.

He knew the signs and he knew what time it was.

You know what happened when he made his prediction?

Nothing.

Nobody listened to him because nobody wants to hear that stuff.

Nobody wants to believe it.

You know, they believed him about a month and a half later because, you know, the market crashed and the Great Depression began.

Listen, I'm no Roger Babson, but I don't think you need to be a Roger Babson to know the signs.

Do you know what time it is?

You can almost hear it blowing in the wind.

Run.

We don't have the luxury of putting our heads in the sand and pretending this isn't going on.

It is.

And now, now is the time to buy precious metals.

May I recommend Lear Capital?

I bought my first gold from Lear, oh,

25 years ago.

I was listening to Rush Limbaugh.

You know, he was endorsing Lear.

And I thought, you know, if he trusts it, I trust it.

With $3 billion in trusted transactions, they have five-star reviews, thousands of them.

You can check it out.

And they have a 24-hour risk-free purchase guarantee.

They are the precious metals leader that you can trust.

It's 800-957-GOLD, 10-second station ID.

Yeah,

yeah.

Well,

what else is going on?

Oh, you know, the Supreme Court of Massachusetts

has,

it's weird,

they've overturned the knife ban in.

in Massachusetts.

Apparently, switch blades and big folding knives can't be banned.

Covered by the Second Amendment.

In Massachusetts.

Well, it's interesting because, I mean, we do talk about the Second Amendment only as it relates to firearms, but it doesn't say firearms, right?

It says the right to bear arms.

Yep.

So

right to bear arms, the people to keep and bear arms.

Firearms are just one example of

what dictionaries define as a means, such as a weapon, of offense or defense.

So the state's highest court struck down the law on switchblades and said, you know, that goes for stun guns and everything else.

Now,

Massachusetts, you know,

isn't the bastion of freedom.

You know,

they do

they still have restrictions on

guns, knives, blow guns.

Black.

Can you imagine?

You have to actually outlaw

the blow gun.

I think those were only really used on like Gilligan's Island.

Anyway, blackjacks, nungchucks, brass knuckles,

and even, and this one is really dangerous, Stu.

It is illegal for you to wear studded leather armbands in Massachusetts.

Really?

I have a whole collection, and when I bring them to Massachusetts, I have to make sure I keep them in my safe.

I always have to check, can I wear my studded armbands in that state if I'm traveling there?

And no is the answer in Massachusetts.

You know, as a big,

you know, I do a lot of roller derby in my spare time, and

the studded armbands have been really

keeping.

I didn't know roller derby was still a really

huge roller derby guy.

And because of that, I have to have studded armbands.

But when I have an away game in Massachusetts, normally I've had to take them off.

But now I'll be free to execute my.

So

you're in a competitive roller derby club.

I mean,

I would say the competitive.

I mean, I'm in the National Association of Roller Derby participants.

Yeah.

And you're, if I'm not mistaken, the name of your group is the Pussy Willows.

It is the Pussy Willows.

Yes, it was a great organization.

Fighting Pussy Willows.

That's amazing.

You would think it's like the type of

plant you see.

Is it nice?

Is it the soft and genteel?

Yeah,

until you start

jagman one in your eye and then

put an eye out.

Yeah, that sounds

like you do with the studded

cuffs.

May I ask you, is Roller Derby still actually done anywhere?

Yeah, I believe it is, actually.

Really?

Am I remembering this wrong?

Um, that I think the Cleveland Guardians, when they they changed their name from the Cleveland Indians, because as you know, that's hateful.

And I believe there was a

wasn't it a Roller Derby team that had the name Cleveland Guardians at the time when they changed it?

Am I remembering this right?

Yeah,

this is, I'm sorry, I'm not a sports guy.

The Cleveland Indians are no more?

Yes, this is a couple years old, Glenn, this story.

I hate to break it to you here live on the air.

Cleveland, I'm, how did I miss that?

I.

What the hell?

Yes, what the hell, Cleveland?

Yes.

What the hell is wrong with?

You know what?

That wasn't the people of Cleveland.

No.

The people of Cleveland wouldn't put up with it.

That was just like, you know what?

That's like

Minnesota changing the Minnesota state flag to look like Somalia's flag.

That's what that is.

Tell you that right now.

Cleveland Indians.

You'll always be the Cleveland Indians to me.

Now I know I'm a little late to the game.

Yeah.

We have more Glenn angrily reacting to multiple year-old stories coming up.

Glenn, back.

I've been a little busy.

Okay.

I haven't been paying attention to my sports team names.

All right.

Let me tell you about Leaf Home Gutter.

We had a wildfire here at my ranch the other day.

It was kind of a near miss.

It was just, I mean, it was on the adjoining property of mine.

If the wind had been blowing the way Stu wanted it to blow, it probably would have made it.

It could have

made it to my house if the wind was stronger and blowing my way.

It was something we have been worried about for a long time.

But my house is still sanding, which

means that you got to clean all the gutters out.

You know what I mean?

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're very glad that you joined us today because we can help you make sense of the world.

First of all, let me just say, when you've got a teachers union, what should be their primary focus?

Okay, teachers, right?

Okay, Stu, play.

I mean, for the love of Pete, can you keep up at this point?

I can try.

It's just a difficult question there.

All right.

So when you have a teachers' union, you want the head of your teachers' union to be talking about the things that relate to your child's school.

And that's why Randy Weingarten came out yesterday and talked about Hamas

and

how Israel is responsible for the death of these hostages because they just won't compromise and won't make peace with Hamas.

And I think that's, you know, that's totally school-related and

right.

There is an equation here, I guess, which is

Hamas takes hostages plus Hamas murders hostages plus Hamas says no to ceasefire agreements over and over and over again equals Israel's responsible for the murders.

Well, that's one way to look at it.

That's one way to do it.

Sure.

I mean, look,

let's be honest.

If you don't understand this, it's because you're a bigoted Nazi.

Really?

Because

it seems to me pretty obvious.

The people that...

take the hostage and murder the hostage are going to be responsible for the murder of the hostage.

That's how I would see it.

I mean, I'm going to be open-minded with you and say that's one one way to look at it, but look, let me explain it.

I mean, first of all, we know that this is a teacher's issue, right?

Right.

I mean, Hamas kills children.

Well, they kill children.

And if we have Jews here, the probably some group will have to probably kill our children, okay, because of Jews.

Why?

We all know that.

Why would Jews have an issue

to do with that?

So that explains why she's talking about it and just in common sense, plain old, you know, everyday American language.

But Stu, you seem to be having a problem with this.

So let me let me take you.

Well, let me just let me take you to

racism because this really boils down to racism as it is.

You know, we all know how much the Jews

just are always harping on, you know,

your

genealogy or your, you know, your family uh heritage the jews are doing that

all the time stuck because i see i see hamas you know pretty much putting it in their charter that no that's because they live so close to the jews they've just picked it up so we know that this is all about racism okay are you against racism yes or no stu of course i'm against racism yes of course you are so the way to stop racism is to get to the root of it which we know is white people all right white people are the inventors of racism that the inventors uh

yeah inventors of racism yeah they invented it they came up with it it was like uh 1615 something like that they were all getting on a boat and they were like hey let's find some people that are different than us and let's give them smallpox blankets so wait there's there was no problems with race before 1615 in our history no no no no well except for the jews i mean they got themselves entangled in with the uh egyptians and the egyptians had to take them as slaves

because they were just, they were stirring the pot, you know, and that's the only thing you can do with Jews.

So, anyway,

the best way to fight racism is

to not be racist.

Become racist yourself, okay, against white people.

Because that'll show them.

That'll show them.

So, it's the same kind of logic here with Randy.

You know,

if you if you hate children being killed

and babies being raped,

you got to make peace with the Jews, or the Jews has to make peace with those people.

Otherwise, we're just going to have to destroy all of them.

So that's pretty much it.

That I don't think I understand at all, I'm going to have to say.

Because you're not part of the new normal.

You have an accepted and fully embraced.

Totally true.

Yes, you are right.

Randy, yes, you are right.

Yeah, right.

While you do that, Stu, your life will be so great.

You'll be in the in crowd.

Nobody will hassle you, unless you disagree with something else that they come up with later.

Then, of course, they'll have you killed as well.

But

for a while, you'll be mighty popular.

Yeah, I bet.

I just don't, I really don't get it.

This is really what they're saying.

It's not just Randy Weingart, it's like the entire media.

It's the

how do you how do you make peace with people that say, I'm going to kill you?

Okay, this is like, honestly, this is like you having, I don't know, some

illegal Venezuelan gang living right next to you.

And every night they're opening up the window and they're looking at you through your window and they're like, I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to kill you.

And then they come over and they set your house on fire.

You're lucky enough to put it out, but you're not lucky enough to save three of your children.

You had five, so you got two left, but they brutally raped and murdered your children.

And then the police coming over and saying, would you two knock it off right now?

And they want to make peace.

And every time the police turn their back, they're like, I'm going to kill you.

And then everybody in your neighborhood going, what is your problem with these Venezuelan gangs?

You are just so rude.

You're so mean.

This could all be end if you just make peace with them.

Listen to what they're saying.

I'm going to make a deal with you that I don't want and then I'm going to kill you.

That's what's happening.

And I don't even think...

I would say it's actually more clear than that because I have yet to hear them deny they want to kill them.

No, right?

There's not,

there's no hiding.

They're not still publicly saying, no, they don't want peace.

They never ask Hamas if they want a ceasefire agreement.

And a ceasefire agreement would mean they also ceased fire, and they don't want anything to do with that arrangement.

They want all the Jews dead.

So it doesn't, like, this is nonsensical.

And the fact that we're at this point where, you know,

these

protesters, even in Israel, are coming after their own government saying we should just kind of like try to get along with Hamas and like, let's see what happens.

This has gone on long enough.

They don't want to.

No, they don't want to.

They don't want to get along.

I mean, you know, it takes both sides to want to stop killing.

One side will.

The other side won't.

I don't know how difficult this is.

But I mean, it's hard.

I mean, the Democrats, their head must hurt all the time of thinking about all of this stuff so deeply.

For instance,

right now, the Republicans are saying,

We're not going to give you any more money to spend as a government unless you pass the SAFE Act.

Now, what is the SAFE Act?

The SAFET Act is just a simple, easy law.

If you are not a citizen, you cannot vote.

Now, that should be really easy, right?

I mean, because we all love democracy.

We're all here.

We want to make sure every vote counts and only

the votes.

The only votes that count are the legitimate votes, right?

We're all for that.

And we all know that if you're an immigrant that has not been naturalized,

you can't vote.

If you're not a citizen, you cannot vote.

But the Democrats are against that because they say it's just a waste of time and an unnecessary law because it's already on the books.

Well, if it's already on the books, then why don't you just pass it again?

I mean,

we got a lot of redundant laws.

You know, a lot of them.

And you think it would be a political benefit, right?

Maybe people in the middle would say, oh, maybe they are taking this seriously.

But of course, they don't want it because this would actually make it more difficult for people in this situation to vote.

If the Republicans don't stand their ground and allow the government to be shut down, I mean, we know, we all know what the press is going to say.

We know they're going to blame it on the Republicans.

They don't care about the senior citizens.

We know that.

But you've got to take a stand.

If they will not

ban illegals from voting, what is the good of voting?

I mean, they're saying to you, oh, no, we're going to let legals vote.

That's what they're saying.

You've got to take a stand on this.

And the American people, you've got to call Congress today.

You've got to call them this week, next week.

You've got to call them and just say, you take a hard stand on this one.

I don't care.

There is no government if you don't have

some rules on the vote.

So you would advocate them trying to get a government shutdown before the election?

I mean, there's no chance they're going to do that, right?

Of course not, because they're weasels.

But they absolutely should.

They absolutely should.

You don't think there would be some electoral problems with that strategy?

What do you mean?

Well, I mean, people don't tend to like the government shutdowns.

They're never popular.

And that's why they try to avoid them for politics, right?

I think if you're not willing,

look,

we know they're registering illegals to vote.

So what is the point

of our government if it's not run by people

that the people, the

citizens of American, America, has elected?

I mean,

You want to throw, you know, half a million votes in from illegals and you're not going to do anything about it.

What do you think is going to come?

What's going to come is if Donald Trump wins, they're going to say, look, the popular vote, popular vote.

Look how many people voted for Kamala Harris compared to the Electoral College.

This constitution has got to go.

That's what they're going to do.

So, I mean, oh, we got a little chaos here on

shutting down the government.

First of all,

that would improve your life.

I guarantee it.

It would improve your life.

We're not shutting down the military.

We're not shutting down critical infrastructure.

And we're not going to not pay senior citizens

the stipend that they get from Social Security.

All of that would be taken care of.

It'd be all of the other spending for the turtle tunnels and everything else.

It doesn't matter.

And if you can't convince America of this

with something as clear and as popular as illegals cannot vote,

tell me the average Democrat that you know that is for that.

Can you?

I can find a lot of people in politics that are for that,

but I can't find average everyday Democrats that are like, you know what, illegals should vote.

Why should they vote?

Chip Roy

is fighting for this.

Mike Lee is fighting for this.

You know, they're the extremists, of course.

But I don't think it's extreme to say we cannot violate certain massive principles that all of us agree to.

And if it's no big deal, it's just redundant, then pass it.

You just be like, okay, fine, fine, whatever.

We pass it.

Now, can we move on with our lives?

They're not wanting to pass it because they know it will stop illegals from voting.

At least in some states.

More in just a second.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Hey!

Tonight on the Wednesday night special, we are talking about the Venezuelan gangs that are terrorizing communities in multiple cities all across the country.

Migrants that have been flooding into New York City now account for what percentages of arrests in Midtown Manhattan stew?

What is the percentage of arrests that are going to the

illegal immigrants?

I've been following this closely with the mainstream media coverage.

So I would say 0.3%.

Right.

75%

of all arrests in Midtown Manhattan are now from illegals.

That's higher.

It's happening.

It's happening in America.

It's happening all over the world.

And the globalist plan is the same all over the Western hemisphere.

Overwhelm and collapse.

I saw this coming back during the Arab Spring.

I told you the movement would see Islamists, anarchists, Marxists, progressives all working together with communists.

And it would cascade through Europe and come here to the United States.

And isn't it interesting in the middle of all this?

There are two things that every Western country, including ours, are now trying to censor us over.

Questions about immigration and questions about

elections.

Don't even think about connecting the dots of those two because that's an unforgivable sin.

And I commit it proudly tonight at nine o'clock.

These questions are why Blaze TV exists.

Deep dive inside the data.

Are illegals voting in our elections?

And if so, are the numbers meaningful enough to actually choose the next candidate?

The numbers in swing states alone are shocking.

Don't miss it tonight, 9 p.m., our Wednesday night special on Blaze TV, Thursday on my YouTube channel, youtube.com/slash Glenn Beck, the left's illegal immigration master plan.

Glenn Beck program.

Let me talk to you about Lyric Capital.

Right now, we're looking down the barrel of a potential Democratic presidency that's going to institute price controls.

Oh, those work.

Never, never.

And they're communist.

So good luck with that one.

If we have Kamala Harris as our president, we're in deep, deep, deep trouble.

And more importantly, your dollar is in deep, deep, deep trouble.

They were trying to convince you yesterday that the price of groceries has actually gone down.

No, it hasn't.

Not really, really hasn't.

May I suggest that the value of your dollar is going down?

And when that happens, it'll become worth less and less and less until it's worthless.

And that's why you need to call Lear Capital right now.

Call them, find out all you can about precious metals, but please act today.

957 gold.

Get started today.

Gold is going to continue to go up.

So it is 957

gold, 800, 957 gold.

Call Lear Capital now.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

So there's been a lot of talk about these armed Venezuelan prison gangs that Donald Trump has been talking about for a very long time.

Remember, they're emptying their prisons.

Venezuelan gangs are coming.

These are worse than MS-13.

Ho, ho, ho, Donald Trump is such a conspiracy theorist.

Well, apparently it is true.

Now you have the mayor of Aurora, Colorado, confirming that the Venezuelan illegal migrant gang has indeed taken over several apartment complexes and have pushed out property managers to extort rent from the tenants directly.

He also went on to blame the Kamala Biden regime on this.

We're going to give you all the news, not just Aurora, because there's a new list out.

And you better check it twice because you don't want to be in any of these counties or possibly any of the cities in these states.

will give that to you because, you know,

the Venezuelan gangs have tipped us off on what they're looking for.

You know, a place to maybe get a loan or two from California and be able to set up a nice home.

I mean, they're people too, you know.

Just because they're in a Venezuelan prison gang doesn't make them less than Americans.

We go there in 60 seconds first.

If, let's say you're in Aurora, Colorado, okay, and you got, you know, you got a nice little place going there and you think maybe now is the time to sell.

Not sure you can get all of your money out of that house, but don't shake the dice and throw them down on the table without knowing the odds.

And you need somebody who is really good at real estate to tell you what the odds are of selling your house in, let's say, Aurora or any other sanctuary city now.

I started a company over a decade ago with my brother.

It is called Real Estate Agents I Trust.com.

The real estate agents that we find and work with are full-time, incredibly dedicated professionals.

They're fully committed to helping you realize your home buying and home selling goals.

Let's see.

Law-abiding Americans should be made well aware of the cities, counties, and states that have laws, ordinances, and policies that obstruct immigration enforcement and shield illegal alien criminals from U.S.

immigration and customs enforcement, otherwise known as ICE.

Harris has come out and said that she would like to dismantle and reimagine ICE.

wouldn't that be fun?

Oh, we should just reimagine it.

I reimagine it as

a group of government officials that actually do their job and remove illegals.

But I don't think that's the way she wants to reimagine it.

The same exact group of people that brought you sanctuary cities,

brought you the reimagining of our police force.

and our DAs, they're now really with Kamala Harris saying, let's reimagine immigration and customs enforcement.

So the mayor of Aurora, California, has just come out because the Venezuelan gangs, the prison gangs, are real.

Now,

this reminds me a little bit about reading some of the diaries from people in Germany, which, yes, I have no life.

I have.

If you read the diaries of people in Germany as Hitler was coming to power, they would say things like,

you know, just a couple of weeks ago, I had never heard this term before, and now everybody's talking about it.

Just a couple of weeks ago, I knew who my friends were, and now it's all changed because now they're saying things that they would have never said before.

And it was a time of great confusion.

Hmm.

That's interesting.

Maybe a little parallel there.

So, the footage of the Venezuelan prison gang came out as they were taking over an apartment building with at least one

AR-style rifle and pistols, and it was happening in a northern suburb of Aurora.

And

people were saying, this isn't real.

This couldn't be real.

Well, now everybody's talking about it.

The mayor of Aurora, Colorado, just confirmed saying that, yeah, yep,

they're real.

They're here.

Here he is on his post.

Confirmed Venezuelan illegal immigrant, or sorry, migrant gangsters have indeed taken over several apartment complexes and have pushed out property managers to extort rents from the tenants directly.

He also blamed the Kamala Biden regime and said how they may be involved in importing the legals into his city.

This is the mayor of Aurora, Colorado.

Quote, somebody put them there.

Somebody funded it.

Whether it's the federal government or not, we don't know.

The mayor further confirmed that the prison gang has given orders to its members to start attacking police officers.

We're aware that in the Denver metropolitan area, there are elements of this gang here that are targeting police.

So that's good.

That's good.

The president responded,

the waves are beautiful here at the beach.

I thought somebody else was taking care of this.

Called Barack Obama about it.

Anyway, the big picture to understand what's coming your way is

the left has imported millions of illegal aliens, some of which I'm sure are good families.

A lot of them are not.

Seeing that about 70% of them are just military-aged men, I mean, they might make a family eventually, but they're not one now.

The prison gang members don't have any respect for our laws.

Why should they?

We don't have any respect for our laws.

Defunding the police has also been pushed nationwide, and that comes with local cities becoming overwhelmed.

Now, there are areas that have a possibility of high risk for violent crime.

These are areas, according to the Center for Immigration Studies.

They have been looking at the cities, the counties, and the states with laws, ordinances, regulations, resolutions, policies, or other practices that obstruct immigration enforcement and shield criminals from ICE.

So it's a short list.

Let me just tell you the places that they're concerned with.

The states that they said you might want to avoid.

California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, Washington.

Okay.

Now, what do those all have in common, Stu?

I'm trying to...

See, is there a pattern?

California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, and Washington.

All of those states have Republicans in them.

No, no.

Well, they have Republicans in them, but not controlling them except for Utah.

And Utah is going to hell.

It's going to hell in a handbasket.

It is becoming so hostile.

to everything that made Utah a good state and a state that everybody's like, oh, it's so family-friendly.

Now let's get there and change all of it and get some people in who know how to run it, some progressive thinking here, and bring some of these migrant gangs in.

That's what's happening.

The cities and counties, they're saying in the District of Columbia, you should really

avoid the city of Washington, D.C.,

which I

think is the entire District of Columbia.

So it'd be hard to visit D.C.

and stay away from Washington.

In Georgia, they're saying Athens, Clark County, Atlanta, Columbia County, DeKalb County, Douglas County.

In Idaho, Bonneville County and Power County.

Indiana, Lake County, Morea County, St.

Joseph County, and Wayne County.

But other than that, no big deal.

In Kansas, Douglas County.

In Kentucky, Campbell County, Franklin County, Jefferson County, Louisville, and Scott County.

In Louisiana, just avoid New Orleans.

Maine, Cumberland County, Hancock County, Maryland, Baltimore.

Now, who would have ever thought you should avoid Baltimore?

That is just such a lovely time, especially when the rats come out at night.

Baltimore, Baltimore County, Charles County, Howard County, Hyattsville, Montgomery County, Prince George's County, Rockville, St.

Mary's County.

And then, I mean, if you're in any of those counties in Maryland, just try not to go south because it's Washington, D.C.

In Michigan, Kalamazoo County, Kent County, Lansing, Leon,

Leelanao County, I guess, Luce County, Muskegon County, Oakland County.

Washington County, I guess.

There's too many Indian names here.

I think this is wrong.

I think this is wrong.

I'm feeling uncomfortable.

It's like we are, it's honestly, it's like we're just taking their culture and making them into our counties.

Wayne County, Wexford County, in Minnesota, Anoka County, Cottonwood County, Dakota County,

Hennepin County, Jackson County,

Candahoy

County, whatever, Lincoln County, Lyon County, Todd County,

Pipestone County, Nobles County,

Ramsey County, and

Watan

County, whatever.

Wow, Nebraska's pretty safe.

Holy mother, this is like a whole page for Nebraska.

Arthur, Banner, Blaine, Douglas, Gosper, Grant, Greeley, Hayes, Hooker,

Hooker County, Howard, Johnson, Johnson County, Lincoln, Logan, Loop, McPherson, Nance,

Perkins, Platt,

Sioux County, and Thomas and Wheeler County.

And

all of those districts are running about 30 minutes late, but they will be opening.

We'll get to their school lunch program here in just a minute.

New Hampshire, Hillsboro County, New Mexico

has a ton.

Geez, another page, another whole page for New Mexico.

Basically, avoid New Mexico.

Wow, same with New York.

Avoid New York.

North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania.

Pretty much get rid of all of Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia and Washington County, those are, huh?

That's weird.

Those are dangerous.

South Carolina, Charleston County is it.

Tennessee, Shelby County, Virginia.

Oh my gosh.

Oh my.

Oh my gosh.

It's still going.

This is like almost two and a half pages of just in Virginia.

Wisconsin, Milwaukee County, Dane County, Winnebago Correctional Center.

I would avoid that usually.

In Wyoming, Teton County.

And that's it.

But other than that, you're good, America.

You're really, really good.

So just avoid those counties because it looks like Venezuelan prison gangs

are

possibly headed your way.

But don't worry about it.

So what's causing that, Stu?

Well, we seem to have a policy of inviting this type of behavior.

That might be part of it.

You know, I'd like to know when somebody is going to go to jail.

I'd like to know when our country decides to say, you know what, George Soros is not welcome here.

He's a criminal.

He has done everything he can with his money, and now his son is doing everything he can with his dad's money to destroy the West.

I mean, when are we going to start taking a stand on

people who have clearly destroyed America?

This is not a Donald Trump problem.

This isn't even a Joe Biden problem.

This is a WEF UN problem.

This is what they're doing to collapse the West into one global government.

They are doing this to all of our countries.

You know,

Donald Trump said, you know, I don't have a problem not paying the UN.

I would like to usher everybody out of the building at the UN.

After all, we built it with our money.

And just, you know, either cutting that part of the island off of New York and just shoving it into the sea, or I don't know,

using it to house migrants would be really good.

That's a very large building.

We could make it into migrant housing, and that would be appropriate.

I mean, the country is at a place now to where

we need radical change.

We have to have radical change.

We have to get out of these UN agreements that are just nothing but, you know, death notices nailed to all of our doors.

They're killing the West.

We have to get our Federal Reserve under control.

We have to gut our intelligence.

We have to absolutely close down and board up the Department of State.

State Department is one of the biggest problems.

So gut it, completely gut it and start over it again.

I mean, almost all of these agencies, that's the kind of change that is needed if you want to save the country.

And the problem is, is you don't even know where the infection is.

Now, this is going to come as a surprise to you, but apparently Governor Kathy Hochul

and Andrew Cuomo

are accused of

working with a Chinese agent.

And this is a high-ranking aide to both of them.

And it's weird.

Linda's son and her husband, Christopher Hu,

are facing charges of violating and conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act, also visa fraud, alien smuggling, and money laundering conspiracy, according to a new indictment in Brooklyn.

Now,

in exchange for advancing Beijing's agenda in New York, this critical aid to the governor of New York,

got a few things.

And we're going to talk about it here in just a second.

Stand by.

Let me take one minute to talk to you about Patriot Mobile.

You know, every dollar that you make,

you need to invest in great products and also

products that will save you money and help save the country.

Right now, the country's only Christian conservative mobile phone company is Patriot Mobile.

Please, would you consider today switching your cell phone service over to Patriot Mobile?

The time is growing

short, very short.

Stop waiting.

Do it today.

Patriot Mobile shares your values, will not send your hard-earned money to aid in the destruction of America.

In fact, they take their money, their profits, some of them,

and they fight conservative causes.

They fight for them, not against them.

You're going to get the same nationwide

all the while sparting a company that loves our country, shares your values, supports,

you know, stopping Venezuela gangs.

I'm just saying, switching is really easy.

They'll make it happen for you right now.

Make the switch to Patriot Mobile, and they're going to give you a whole month for free.

They're a great company, great people.

Call them right now.

PatriotMobile.com slash Beck Beck or call 972 Patriot.

10 seconds station ID.

Wow.

Wow.

This is this is fascinating.

So apparently the

highest ranking aide for the governor of New York

now owns a $4.1 million

mansion in New York, a $2 million Honolulu luxury condo, and a fleet of luxury cars, including a 2024 Ferrari Roma, which is a great car, beautiful car.

Beautiful.

People say they couldn't make it more beautiful.

They've already made it more beautiful.

The most beautiful guy ever.

Anyway,

so I don't know

how they justified that other than, you know, oh, well, how did you afford that?

Well, we're laundering money.

And we're getting, you know, kind of a gravy train of kickbacks from the Chinese because we're,

you know, we're working against America.

That's great.

That's great.

Yeah, I'm really stunned.

I mean, the government of New York has not seemed similar to the Chinese Communist Party at all

in their actions.

No.

So I'm stunned to hear this.

You are.

Oh, God.

Because you're saying that none of, for instance,

like

the China virus ginavirus they acted completely differently than the chinese did right yeah that's true i don't think the chinese were dumb enough to put the actual people who were positive with covet into nursing homes so i mean the chinese government there was definitely a difference there that the chinese government handled that situation better yes than the new the government of new york but with some great influence from apparently a chinese spy uh working in the government to take out you know the words taiwan from speeches and such.

Really, really a helpful thing for New York.

But honestly, like, how could they tell?

How could they tell that they hired someone who was a representative of the Chinese Communist Party when they all act like they're in the Communist Party themselves?

How'd you know?

Well, I think some of them are proudly communist.

I mean, I don't think they carry the card anymore that actually says, Mao's my favorite leader in history.

But a lot of them will say that out loud.

Mao's their favorite.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Back program.

There is something going on in Brazil that every American should pay attention to because this is

this is the system in the West now

to silence dissent.

And they're silencing people on

the election.

Anybody who calls election fraud in Venezuela is in trouble.

And anybody who is sharing information, just exactly like what is happening in England, if you're sharing information about what's really happening with the migrant crisis over there,

you could actually go to jail.

Now, Brazil is cracking down on X and any dissenters.

But why are they doing it now and why should you care?

One of the strongest voices and truly an American hero, Michael Schellenberger, is with us.

He is the author of San Francisco

and he is also the founder of Public on Substack.

Michael, welcome to the program.

Hey, good to be with you, Glenn.

Thank you so much.

So can you explain to the American people what's going on and why they should care?

Sure.

So, I mean, you may think Brazil, it's a long ways away, doesn't have anything to do with us.

But everything that that Brazil is doing in censorship has been endorsed by Kamala Harris and Tim Walls.

Kamala Harris and Tim Walls said that we should first

censor election information that they don't approve of, that we should de-platform political leaders, namely Donald Trump, and that those bans on political leaders should be across all social media platforms.

In other words, if you get banned at Twitter, then you should also be banned at Facebook.

You should be banned on Instagram, TikTok, every single social media platform.

That's called cross-platform ban.

That's exactly what Brazil is doing right now.

When Elon Musk refused to go along with it, they shut off X.

It's now blocks in Brazil.

It's banned.

You can break the law by using a VPN, a virtual private network, to get around the block in Brazil.

But that is illegal.

And there is an almost $9,000 a day fine for Brazilians if they do that.

This is totalitarianism.

I mean, this is, people think totalitarianism is just tanks and torture chambers.

Never starts that way.

It starts with depriving people of freedom of speech.

And that's what's happening in Brazil, and it's happening all around the world.

And it is, we're at grave risk of it arriving here in a big way.

So, Michael, I got in a lot of trouble

about four years ago for saying what is coming is a digital ghetto.

Just as the Nazis put Jews behind a wall and said, you can talk all you want here, but nobody can hear you because there's a wall.

Nobody sees you.

Nobody hears you.

What's being developed is a digital ghetto.

And we're there.

We're there.

Are we not?

We're getting there.

I mean, I think that what's game-changing is Elon Musk's ownership of X.

We also saw Mark Zuckerberg apologize for for the censorship that he engaged in.

Didn't go far enough, in my view.

No.

Facebook is still censoring disfavored views.

But, you know, we still have the First Amendment here.

I pointed out a few days ago, and Barack Obama, two years ago, gave a speech at Stanford where he proposed government censorship of social media platforms.

And how did he propose doing it?

By amending the Constitution,

because he and and many Democrats, I'm sad to say, believe that the First Amendment is an obstacle, is a problem that they need to get rid of and solve in order to have mass censorship, which, of course, Glenn, as you know, gives them control over elections.

Naturally, they're doing this in the name of saving democracy, but any attack on free speech is an attack on democracy.

And that's what Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, and Tim Waltz have all endorsed.

And this is really,

it

kind of started with Brazil, where they got serious about X, with people who were questioning the legitimacy of the election of Lula, correct?

Yeah, that's right.

It's very similar to here.

There was concerns around election

fraud, around not counting, you know, mischief around the ballot boxes, all of which would sound very familiar to Americans.

And then they said that, well, we have to censor all those concerns about the elections.

I had a big, I was in Brazil.

I'm actually under criminal investigation in Brazil for the Twitter files Brazil.

The Attorney General recommended that I be prosecuted by the Supreme Court for publishing entirely accurate and legal Twitter files.

about Brazil censorship.

And one of the arguments I had with journalists, because of course, journalists are mainstream journalists are advocates of censorship.

It's the most Orwellian thing in the world.

But one of the things they would say is, well, we have to censor election information.

I would ask them, how would you ever know if somebody stole the election if the same government that stole the election is also now censoring the evidence showing that they stole the election?

Right.

I mean, the worst people to be the gatekeepers of truth are the people who have demonstrated throughout all time that they are the biggest and most powerful liars, the government.

They cannot be the gatekeeper of truth and disinformation and deciding which is which.

You know, Michael, I was asked to go down

to Brazil for their

Independence Day, which is coming up.

And my attorney said, you can't go.

We can't guarantee that you'd be allowed to go.

And I haven't done anything that I know of.

But that's the situation Elon Musk is in.

That's a situation that you're finding yourself in, to where you have published the truth

and shown these things to be true.

And now, if you go into Brazil, do you fear that you would be taken?

Well, I'm going to find out tomorrow.

Are you going?

I'm flying to to Brazil tomorrow.

I will land at 7.40 in the morning Sao Paulo time on September 6th.

I have an attorney in Sao Paulo.

If I am detained at the airport,

my attorney will be there and we will fight it.

But no, I'm certainly not going to back down.

Never back down against a bully.

And

this is not just about Brazil anymore.

This is about

we have to stop the totalitarianism abroad before it before it arrives here in a big way.

And

that's why I'm going down there and I'm going to join them to celebrate Brazil's independence and also celebrate Brazil's commitment to freedom because its constitution protects free speech.

Well, now you're shaming me.

The evidence, you came out with some evidence that the U.S.

was colluding

with the Brazilian government to ban X and to go after Elon Musk.

Is Ben's right about the current

State Department or embassies from the United States actively being involved right now?

I think it's safe to assume that that's happening.

In terms of hard proof, what we have is

a lot of money flowing from this outfit called the National Endowment for Democracy

into pro-censorship organizations in Brazil,

including these fake fact-checking organizations, which are all about creating justifications for censorship.

And it's quite an, it should be a shame.

I mean, it's actually illegal because, of course, the First Amendment of our Constitution says that the government shall take no actions to abridge freedom of speech.

That goes worldwide.

We're not allowed to support freedom of speech with U.S.

taxpayer money.

Now, is it the only thing

that's going on?

I mean, of course not.

I mean, Brazil is its own country.

It has

this criminal dictator named Alejandre Jamorais

and Lula, who are now the de facto dictators of Brazil.

He was a mob lawyer.

He was the lawyer for the biggest criminal syndicate in Sao Paulo.

He's as corrupt as anybody.

He got his job.

He almost certainly got his job by blackmailing a former president

over some, without getting into much of the details, you know, basically a sex scandal.

So these are, there's a, there's an independent, obviously, dynamic in Brazil, but of course, it's immoral for us to be supporting crooks and

mafia lawyers and dictators.

We need to stop doing that.

And unfortunately, when I testified in front of Congress about Brazil in May, the Democrats all defended censorship.

And now we've seen

Robert Reich, the former labor secretary under Clinton, has called for Elon Musk to be arrested.

We've seen Mark Ruffalo, the Marvel action Hulk actor.

And we've seen Keith Ellison all praising Brazil's censorship.

So

totalitarianism emerges from within the elites, within the ruling class.

And when you start seeing the ruling class demanding censorship like they're doing, we should all be very frightened.

So let me ask you, Michael, I mean, I don't think it's a coincidence that

everybody on the left said that Bolsonaro was like Donald Trump and was going to become a dictator.

And then they put up a communist

who becomes the dictator.

And they, you know, they're working through the courts, which

our country is trying to to change the makeup of our Supreme Court.

Is there anything to be said?

I just feel like in England,

if you retweet something or you post something that they don't like,

they have made the claim that they'll come for you anywhere.

What's happening is they're coming for people in

Brazil.

Is this part of a global strategy to kind of

become,

to take care of problems in our country?

You know, they have a real problem with Elon Musk by having Brazil take care of it or, you know, arresting you for something that you might have posted

on the internet and it went to England.

It was a violation of their laws.

It just seems like the world

speech police

are at the beginning phase of something very frightening.

Yeah, that's right.

And it does appear to be a pattern whereby

the Europeans, the Brazilians, the Canadians, the Irish, the Australians, they're all trying to censor X with support from the U.S.

government in a variety of ways.

The goal is clearly to control the information environment.

And they can't do it.

It's harder for them to do it directly because we have this thing called the First Amendment.

So they're trying to do it indirectly through the back door.

Yes.

And so we've seen constantly, they've been demanding that not only the content be censored in Brazil or in Australia, they want it to be censored here in the United States as well.

So it's a global totalitarianism.

We've never approached this.

The closest we've ever imagined it was George Orwell's 1984.

You know, it's one, it's a problem, of course, is that you have a few big social media monopolies that control basically all the information.

And if they get, if the, if the government, the deep state, the intelligence agencies, the security agencies get control over social media platforms, then none of us are free.

We're absolutely, we're completely living in a totalitarian society.

Michael,

I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done with the Twitter files.

And I really believe you are

such an important voice.

Elon Musk, I don't know if we would stand a chance if it wasn't for Elon Musk right now and what he's doing.

If Twitter was still in the hands of the others like it was before, I think we'd be a very different world right now.

We pray for both of you.

Please let us know, Michael, what happens when you get to the airport.

We'll be following that.

And if there's anything we can do to help, I'd love to have you back on the air in short order telling us how we can help.

What should we be asking for?

But I'm up against the clock.

And thank you so much, Michael.

Thank you, Glenn.

I appreciate you.

You bet.

Bye-bye.

This is something that is so critically important.

And I don't think America gets it yet.

But please.

Follow me on this and Michael and

be very well aware.

We're entering a new terrifying phase.

Welcome to the program.

We have Dave from Omaha chiming in.

Hello, Dave.

Hey, Glenn.

I love your show.

And I just want to say I really appreciated your coverage with Michael Schellenberger.

It was a great interview.

It's an important issue down there in Brazil.

And I always appreciate your insightful commentary on such issues

and the way you really go into depth.

And that's why I wanted to call, as a representative of the average American.

Average American.

Just listening to the show,

I can't help but think additional coverage would be helpful for us to understand and and comprehend what's going on.

And that's why I would just suggest that you would send Stu to Brazil, let's say

for Friday evening for like three hours or so.

Okay.

Just for him to kind of like look at things like maybe around

in Sao Paulo maybe just to kind of see maybe around a stadium.

If you would send him with tickets

to a stadium to Friday.

On Friday night.

Well I could maybe do it on Sunday.

No, a Sunday night.

Friday.

Sunday wouldn't work.

Friday would be the time to send him.

And then he'd come back immediately after

an event that might be occurring there.

Send him.

Wow.

You should pay, though.

You should pay for it.

Hello, America.

There's a few things going on with our economy that you must know about.

It honestly makes some of the communist ideas of Kamala Harris of price controls

look like no problem.

You're going to be aware of them and you will be ahead of the curve to protect yourself and your family in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

Now, I ask why our churches are silent on this,

but I'm just going to go out on a limb because no church will talk about it.

I believe there won't be any cybercrime in heaven.

And why aren't the churches talking about it?

You know, cybercrime.

Are we going to be up against cyber criminals in heaven?

I no.

But I'm sure there'll be a few up there, but they probably have retired from their wicked ways, no doubt.

In the meantime, until you kick the bucket, cybercrime is a real worry for you.

That's why you need Life Lock.

And it is important to understand cybercrime and how identity theft are affecting your lives.

A lot of places can even accidentally expose your personal information, and that's why LifeLock monitors millions of data points every second to look for risks to your identity.

So there's a couple of things that I want to touch here

with Carol Roth.

She is our, you know, our...

economics guru.

She's a former investment banker and also the author of a fantastic book, You Will Own Nothing.

Let me just say this.

Carol, how weird is it when we first started talking about this idea that you'll own nothing?

You know, we had theories on how they could get us there, but now it's all happening.

And you can clearly see how every American will be broke if they don't, if we don't turn around from this.

It's terrifying, isn't it?

It sure is.

And certainly when I wrote You Will Own Nothing, like you said, a lot of these things were predictions.

You did the same with the Great Reset.

And we kind of saw the writing on the wall, saw what had happened in history, and were able to project that out.

You know, one of the things that I talked about was potentially the biggest government wealth confiscation of all time, which is the government coming after something called unrealized gains, as well as potentially retirement accounts.

And now we've seen that as a proposal first from the Biden administration, and now the continuation with Harris

for the next four years.

And so this really was meant to be a warning.

And we have to do something about this, Glenn.

Okay, so this is something that is coming from Kamala Harris.

She wants price controls, which is communist, and unrealized gain taxes on these, which means clearly, if your house goes up, let's say your house goes up $100,000, you're going to have to pay 25% of that increase that year.

So you'll have to shell out, or is it 10%?

I can't remember.

10%?

Well, so she said, I think I believe it was something like 25%, actually.

But to be clear, she said, of course, this is only going to be for people who have lots of money.

And as we know, everything starts out with the people who have lots of money.

They have the

lawyers and the tax shelters and whatnot.

So this is clearly going after the middle and working class.

And what you said, Glenn, that's even more scary is if your house goes up $100,000, according to whom?

According to an estimate on Zillow, according to the IRS, according to a council that includes, you know, AOC and Kamala Harris, that is part of the issue.

When something is an unrealized gain, it is theoretical because you have not realized that.

Things change and that means it can go up and go down.

Notice that they are not talking about crediting you for any unrealized losses.

They don't want to give any money back.

They just want to establish a price at any point in time.

And this can affect your home, and this can affect stocks.

And this can affect all kinds of

stocks.

Yep.

Everything.

Everything.

So,

here's the thing.

Now, America, please listen to this.

If to get you to a place to where you own nothing, all they have to do is tax you an additional $25,000 or yeah, $25,000 on an unrealized gain for your house.

So what does that mean?

If you have to pay that, you're going to have to sell something because you just can't cough up $25,000.

So what do you do?

Do you sell your house so you can pay that gain?

You will sell stuff to be able to afford the taxes, which in the end means you will own nothing.

Yes, and who's going to come in and swoop in and buy that home that you have to put up for sale?

You want to guess?

It's going to be Wall Street who has gotten into the home buying game.

This didn't exist before 2010.

And now, with all of the free money they had access to for almost 15 years, they're flush with cash.

They can come in.

They don't need to do a walkthrough.

They don't need to get the financing terms.

We know that they continue to buy a substantial portion of all the new homes that are listed.

And more and more of those homes are going to be rented and not owned, which, by the way, is the biggest asset on Americans' balance sheets.

So we have, you know, I don't know if you saw this.

I send it to you, the unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.

And again, this doesn't mean anything at this point because they're not going to be taxed on it.

And, you know,

they don't have to cough up more money because of it.

The

unrealized gains or losses on investment securities.

So these are the things the banks are holding on.

They're buying up mortgages and everything else.

If you look at this chart,

we were about $75 billion in the hole during the 08 financial crisis.

This one is showing that we are 675,

worst case scenario, $675 billion

in the hole on some of these banks.

Now, again, it doesn't mean anything unless there's a run on the bank and they have to start selling stuff.

It's a collapse potentially much bigger than 08, correct?

So, yes.

So, I think the important thing to realize is this is definitely not great, but it's not meant to panic anyone yet.

So, it was something we need to pay attention to, right?

So, like you said, just like the unrealized gains that you could be taxed on, any sort of unrealized losses are still unrealized.

And what happened, as we know, and we talked about this back, I think it was, is it last March the Silicon Valley Bank collapsed?

I I think it was.

It feels like it was 900 years ago, but I think it was March of 2023.

Basically, what happened is during the easy money period, you had all of this money sloshing around in the system.

And what happened?

People went to deposit that in banks and banks didn't have enough places to lend to.

So they made some loans, but what they did is they decided to park the rest of that in securities.

And so they bought a lot of treasuries and mortgage-backed securities.

The challenge, as we have seen.

Right.

I mean, that's what's considered the quote-unquote safe security.

So we'll just play along with that for now.

What we know about bonds is that they trade in absolute inverse, kind of like a seesaw to their interest rates and to their yields.

So think about if a bond price goes up, that means the interest rate's gone down.

If interest rates go up, the bond price goes down.

So what happened?

We had all of these

banks that bought in on these bonds and then interest rates went up and up and up.

So like with our seesaw, if the interest rates go up, what happens to their bond prices?

They go down.

So, when we report that, when the banks report that, which they're required to do, so that you can see in that chart, that shows that if they had to sell them all today based on today's value, that they would have to sell them at a massive loss.

But again, that's unrealized.

So, what could happen in the interim?

One is that they hold them to maturity, which is what they're probably going to do.

Or as interest rates come back down, which we know we're in the process theoretically of seeing those come back down soon um that also that you're going to see that loss narrow right as it gets closer to the price that they paid so you're going to see that shrink the the the wild card here And this is what happened with Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank and the like, is if there's something that requires them to make the sale, if there is a bank run, if they have to fulfill deposits and they're not able to and they have to tap that.

now the federal reserve has been doing everything in their power to backstop this to make sure this is not an issue and there are certainly plenty of other issues in the banking system like commercial real estate like loans to hedge funds and the like but this is what that chart shows that you know if things were to get sideways boy there is a lot of exposure that could really impact the banking system So as I said, this is not a good situation, but unless there is the catalyst, it doesn't become the catastrophic situation that it might look like from looking at the charts.

So I always remember my grandfather who lived through the Great Depression saying, if we only would have known what the rich people knew, maybe we would have been able to weather it much better because they had made moves in advance.

I will note here that Warren Buffett through Berkshire Hathaway

has been selling their Bank of America stocks, liquidating that.

Correct.

Yeah, Jamie Diamond is also liquidate.

You never want to see somebody who's at the head of a corporation start to liquidate.

What do you know that everybody else doesn't know?

So

there are a couple of theories there.

So with Warren Buffett,

he made a big bet on Bank of America and got some special securities.

And certainly he's telling us at a minimum that from a price standpoint, he doesn't see the risk reward there.

Whether or not that's something deeper, we don't know.

Jamie Dimon, who has kind of hinted that, you know, maybe he is going to retire within the next five years and do something else, you know, he's saying that that goes along with it.

But I do pay attention to these signals.

So if we start seeing more of these signals, again, we should have the antenna up.

But either way,

we know what the fiscal foundation is like.

We know that there are all these cracks in the system.

And so everybody should be diversified and protected as much as possible in their own portfolios.

So yesterday, the White House came out and said that your grocery prices have gone down.

Your grocery prices have not gone down.

And then they tried to get away with saying, well, she was just talking about the inflation rate has gone down.

That's not what she was talking about.

She was lying to the American people.

But I want Carol to talk to you about a new tax.

Not only are they talking about, you know,

trying to get these people that are so greedy at these grocery store companies that

they're going to go after them and set price controls.

Disaster.

But there is now another idea that has been percolating for a while.

Janet Yellen is all for it.

Joe Biden is for it.

I'm sure that Kamala Harris is for it because these companies just don't pay enough tax.

Wait until you hear the loss of sovereignty and everybody's mind in 60 seconds.

Back with Carol Roth first.

Let me tell you a little bit about Lear Capital.

You know, both Carol and I believe in gold.

We both believe that

you should have some,

or silver even.

Silver is cheaper.

But

when all of this stuff really starts to hit, And you haven't really felt the full ramification of their Inflation Reduction Act, a lot of these things begin next year.

And if we don't have a president to cut all of this out,

we're going to be in real trouble.

And your dollar is going to be in real trouble.

Please, today,

call Lear Capital.

Please find out if this is right for you.

You can buy silver at a...

you know, relatively very low cost.

These banks wouldn't be having all this trouble if they wouldn't have bought treasuries.

Instead, they would have bought gold.

But our Fed doesn't do that.

Just everybody else's central bank, especially in the East.

Get your free wealth protection guide and call them today.

They'll credit your account $250 towards your purchase.

You just call them at 800-957-GOLD.

Ask them the questions, pray on it, and please, if it's right for your family, do it now.

800-957-GOLD, 800-957-GOLD.

10-second station ID.

Okay, so The Hill has just come out, and I know you're not an expert on taxes, Carol,

but you can walk us through this and show us how real this is.

There is a Pillar 2 agreement for a new global tax.

Can you explain this?

Okay, so I'm going to do my best to explain this.

I would say two things about this, in addition to me not being a tax expert, is that this is something that is in process.

So we're not making enough noise about this.

This is an opportunity for everybody to raise their voice.

So there are two things that have been going on.

One is through the OECD, the Organization for Economic Cooperative Development.

And this is

a group that, you know, it started actually at a predecessor.

It was supposed to be how do we rebuild Europe after World War II.

We're going to help, you know, distribute the funds from Canada and the U.S.

And then it it morphed into this advisory.

And now

it's gotten completely out of control.

And they have been saying, well, it's not fair that we have competition amongst tax rates in different jurisdictions.

Why should a company that's multinational be able to domicile themselves in Ireland and pay a lower tax rate?

We need to have a global tax cartel.

And Janet Yellen thinks that this is just a fantastic idea and has been leading the charge

for the last several years on trying to get this done, which would basically set not only a global minimum tax, but maybe some other rules on how different countries could tax companies, not based on where their headquarters are, but based on where they're selling.

So if you're selling into China or if you're selling into Europe, that that's where the

taxes would be garnered,

which again, from a sovereign country standpoint, why would you want to do this?

It begs the question for me: is this stupidity, you know, like when we walked the Chinese into the World Trade Organization?

Is this the fact that we have communists in our government that are trying to destroy America?

Or is it maybe some of all of the above, right?

So, you know, to pick your pick your poison here.

What has happened is that the OECD and the pillars that you talked about, the different things that they're trying to accomplish, they have blown past their set deadlines.

They have not been able to figure this out.

So, who has decided that they want to step in and try to make this a reality?

The United Nations, good old United Nations that, you know, don't have their hands in enough, yeah, and enough evil things.

And so, they want to be able to take over this concept and sort of take it to the next level and have by majority vote, majority vote, say that we can set taxes basically anywhere, even though it's not, you our country that

we're levying those taxes on.

So you could have China decide, oh, we're going to tax all of these American companies and go after the profits that we have in our highly profitable United States companies.

And for some reason, the United States, who funds the UN, right, we fund 22% of sort of their main budget and 27% of the peacekeeping budget.

We are funding all of the insanity that comes out of the UN.

It's time to defund the UN.

It's time to get out of this global mess and global cartel and to go back to being a sovereign nation.

And they want to completely throw that sovereignty away and have all of these other entities be able to tax and basically steal all of the profits that are coming from the most profitable multinational corporations in the United States, which, by the way, are, you know, of the biggest

companies in the world, they make up almost all of them.

There's a couple of energy companies and a couple of other companies that are in that set.

But basically, every large profitable company in the world is an American company, and they want to be able to raid that for their own benefit and steal that from the American people.

And again, I just want to point out.

It's the UN now that has taken this, but it is the Biden-Harris administration that is pushing it.

If you think you're going to have a 15 or 20% tax on a corporation and your prices won't go up by 15 or 20%,

you're out of your mind.

If you think that they could tax

our companies and have favorable for elsewhere or not take other

taxes from other companies, that's called a tariff.

That stops economic growth.

That's what you use as a punishment for a country that you are at war with or potentially at war with.

And it's very bad for both sides.

It's bad for the country, the company.

It's bad for the country and the and the buyers of those products.

This is a disaster waiting to happen.

And the Biden-Harris administration is pushing for it.

Yeah, I mean, just go down the list.

So they want to, you know, out of the gate, increase the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%.

That's a 33% increase, and that will be passed on either to workers or to customers, or some combination of both.

So, again, in terms of lowering prices, this does not get taking more money and giving it to the government does not help lower your prices or help beat inflation.

They want to institute a higher capital gains tax.

They want to, you know, have a higher unrealized gains.

And now they want to let the world confiscate our money.

What could go wrong, Glenn?

Nothing could go wrong if your plan is to make everybody in the West own nothing

and be really, really happy about it.

I guarantee you, the only thing that won't happen is you won't be happy about it.

But this is what this election is all about.

This is why they cannot allow Donald Trump to be president because he'll stop all of this.

And this is already in the works and part of an overall plan for for a new world order.

Thank you so much, Carol.

Let me talk to you about Relief Factor sleep.

I mean if you think you have bad nights sleep, do you know the research I have to do for this show every day?

You can look away.

I can't.

Sometimes I just cannot shut my brain off.

I toss and turn and I'm like, oh my gosh.

And then trying to find a way to tell you about it that doesn't, you know, make you lose sleep every night.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

Tonight, on my Wednesday night special, Venezuelan gangs, which a week ago everybody was like, ah, that's not real, they're now terrorizing communities in multiple cities across the country.

Migrants flooding into New York City now account for 75% of all the arrests in Midtown Manhattan.

It's happening all over the world, and the globalist plan is the same all over the Western hemisphere.

Overwhelm and collapse.

Cloward and Piven.

I saw this coming back with the Arab Spring, and I did a chalkboard every single day that you would see Islamicists or Islamists, anarchists, Marxists, progressives all working together.

They would cascade through Europe, eventually to the United States.

And it's interesting that in the middle of this, there are two things that every single Western country, including ours, are now trying to censor us over.

One, questions over

immigration, and two, elections.

Don't even think about connecting these two things and talking about that.

That's an unforgivable sin, but I commit it tonight.

These are the questions that are the reason Blaze TV even exists.

Tonight, I'm going to deep dive inside the data.

Are illegals voting in our elections?

If so, are the numbers meaningful enough to actually choose the next candidate?

Let me just say, looking at the numbers, it is shocking, shocking what's coming our way.

Tonight, Wednesday night special, 9 p.m.

Eastern only on Blaze TV.

And then you can see it tomorrow on YouTube at youtube.com slash Glenn.

It is the Glenn Beck Wednesday night special, the left's illegal immigration master plan for 2024.

Okay, we are under attack in so many different ways.

One of those ways is we have been infiltrated by China and there are Chinese spies everywhere.

And they're at the highest level.

We now find out that

we have Kathy Hochl's assistant, the governor of California, high-level advisor,

has been being paid by the Chinese government to help them out.

How much is your citizenship worth?

How much would you sell your country out for?

Peter Schweizer is here to tell us any details that he has.

He's been following the Chinese infiltration for a very long time.

Welcome, Peter.

How are you?

Hey, I'm great, Glenn.

Always good to be with you.

Thanks for having me.

Thank you.

So, in your book, Blood Money, Why the Powerful Turn a Blind Eye While China Kills Americans,

you talk about how many, and both on the Republican and the Democratic side,

how many people are selling their souls to China.

Tell me about this case.

What do you know about it?

Yeah, so Linda Sun was the deputy chief of staff for Kathy Hochul.

Before that, she served for years in senior positions for Andrew Cuomo.

She was his chief, deputy chief diversity officer, for example.

And essentially what she's being charged with in a 60-page indictment is getting millions of dollars from the Chinese government and from the CCP.

And she took her position

and used it for the benefit of China.

So for example, she blocked representatives from the Taiwanese government from even having access to the governor's office.

She altered state messages that were important to Chinese officials.

So she'd literally change a message to benefit them.

She also helped Chinese officials travel to the United States.

She issued unauthorized invitations that weren't approved by anyone else that allowed government officials to come into the United States.

And she gave Chinese officials access to private New York government conversations during the COVID-19 crisis, explaining how they were going to respond.

She would actually patch them in on these group, high-level group telephone calls.

And in exchange for that, according to prosecutors, she received a lot of benefits from the Chinese government.

She was able to buy a $4.1 million Long Island home, a $2.1 million condo in Hawaii.

She and her husband also bought a 2024 Ferrari Roma.

And I guess maybe my personal favorites is Glenn.

She's also accused of getting 16 meals

that were prepared by a Chinese government chef.

They were Nanjing style salted duck, which which

seemed good to me.

Yeah, I mean, it changes.

You know, once you hear the salted duck thing that she got 16 of them, you think, well, you know, maybe, maybe.

And it changes things dramatically.

Why did it take so long for this to become apparent?

What does her husband do, by the way?

Do you know?

Well, her husband, her husband, yeah, her husband in New York ran a sort of export-import business, a little bit vague.

But the other thing, Glenn, is that she apparently, according to the indictments, think about this.

She's a senior state official for Andrew Cuomo and the current governor of New York.

She apparently ran her own business in China, in mainland China, which is where she was born.

She's a naturalized U.S.

citizen, but she actually had a business in China that nobody knew about it.

And the Chinese government also apparently gave her cousin

a cushy job.

That is mentioned among the indictments as well.

How many more are there?

How widespread is this, Peter?

Oh,

it's a massive problem.

And look, this is something you and I have been talking about since 2018.

You've talked about it on Blaze TV, and that is that they have avoided

really enforcing the Foreign Agents Registration Act,

which requires if you do anything to benefit a foreign government or a foreign government-linked business, you are required to file with the Department of Justice.

And they didn't really support this law at all.

And then, of course, they've used it against various Republicans, which, you know, look, if they're guilty of it, they're guilty of it.

They should be charged.

But it's been selective.

This case was a long time coming.

And, of course, there is that, I think, strong case for these same violations that took place by Hunter Biden.

Millions of dollars and yet

they weren't charged with anything.

Yeah.

Correct.

Yep.

Correct.

By the Chinese, by the Ukrainians, by the Romanians, by the Russians.

I think you could make a fairer case in every one of those instances when it relates to Hunter Biden.

And the Department of Justice now, in their tax case against Hunter Biden, has even said that he was running a foreign influence peddling scheme, but he has yet to be charged under this Foreign Agents Registration Act, which is what Melinda's son has now been charged with.

And he got more than salted duck.

Well, maybe.

I mean, I saw some of the videos.

He might have.

Anyway, let's move on.

You know,

Peter, I can't thank you enough for all of the work that you have done.

My mood never improves after talking to you,

but I am appreciative of the knowledge.

Can I get a read from you on

how optimistic are you that

we can turn things around with this election?

I'm cautiously optimistic.

You know, look, I mean, the bottom line is we have to be realist.

You know, the

reminder here is that we don't want to be optimistic because you're naive, but you don't want to be pessimistic because then you just give up all hope.

And the bottom line is, I do think think that, look, there are people around Trump that have Chinese connections, but there are also people around Trump that recognize this problem.

And I believe those are in the closer inner circle.

When you look at Kamala Harris and Tim Walls, I mean, Tim Walls

did not get money from the Chinese, but he fits the definition of a fellow traveler.

And my fear is that with him as vice president, because he's had exchange programs with China for 30 years, they'll make him the point person on China policy.

And then, God forbid, I think we're going to be in deep trouble.

So you're going to be in deep trouble.

Peter,

when you look at everything that is going on and what they are now admitting to and saying, you know, we're going to do price controls, we're going to do unrealized gains tax,

you know,

their stance on war, their stance on everything.

I mean,

there is no way that if that's your plan, which is coming together oh, so nicely, especially when it comes to controlling free speech all around the world, and we're involved with it in England and in Brazil,

there's no way that Donald Trump, that they could allow him to win.

Because he really is the only thing standing in the way of all of these very nefarious plans.

Yeah, I mean, this this is

the weird place that we are in America, Glenn, where you have

Donald Trump who sort of breaks all molds.

And one of the people that's vigorously supporting him is Robert Kennedy Jr., who also breaks a lot of molds.

And

they will disagree on certain policy positions, but the point is they recognize the essential problem.

And the essential problem is this desire for control and dominance, where the left has essentially been fused with corporate America?

Big government and big business are not enemies, they're actually allies.

And this is the place that we find ourselves.

And I think what the Harris campaign is really trying to do is bank that a sizable proportion of the American population, voting population, is going to be ignorant.

So they play this game where they talk about these policy prescriptions that really don't have widespread popularity.

You know, this tax on unrealized gains is just ridiculous.

But they're obscuring it enough to where they think that a lot of people won't even be aware that that is her position.

That's the game that they're playing.

And I still want to have enough faith in America that people are going to see through that and understand what's going on.

Yeah, I hope so.

Peter, thank you so much.

God bless you.

Keep on the trail.

You bet.

Peter Schweizer,

investigative journalist who

used to be one of the most beloved investigative journalists when it came to government corruption because he rats out both sides.

That's not good enough anymore.

You can only rat out one side and it has to be the conservatives.

If you do it to the other side, you're over.

But luckily, his books are well read

by

millions of Americans.

So he continues to do his job.

All right, more in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Rough Greens.

Giving your dog the healthiest, happiest life you can give him isn't just a nice thing to do.

It's your responsibility.

But more importantly, it's what we want to do.

I mean, if you have a dog, I mean, it kills me when I see people who have animals and they just abuse them.

I'm like,

why?

Why even have the animal?

Please give them as somebody who loves them.

I love my dog.

I love dogs in general.

Cats, different story, but I'm talking about dogs here.

When you really look into the food that your dog is eating, especially if it's kibble food, I didn't know this.

You know, I thought you could buy better kibble food, and maybe better kibble food is a little bit better, but everything has been cooked out of it because it has to be allowed to sit on a shelf for up to two years.

If you were going to eat

one food your whole life, do you think it would be good to have that food be in that condition so it could sit on the shelf and never go bad or never mold?

There's nothing good in that.

Rough greens is a supplement that you put on the dog's food.

So no matter what you're feeding them, and they love it.

So if you have a picky eater as a dog, this works wonders.

But I'm telling you, and I have nothing to back this up other than, you know, my own observations, the observations of my family and my wife.

Uno is a different dog because he had rough greens.

He ate all of his food now.

We don't have to coax him in it.

He loves it.

He runs to the bowl.

And

he's our oldest German Shepherd we've ever had.

And he's an old timer as far as German Shepherds go.

And I think that's because of Rough Greens.

And he doesn't have the hip problems.

I mean, he's just starting to develop them now.

Don't miss my Wednesday night special tonight at 9 p.m., a very important one.

Also, if you missed any of this podcast today, we had an update on the Venezuelan prison gang that is coming to a state and a county and a city near you soon.

Don't miss any of the podcast and don't miss tonight's Wednesday night special only on Blaze TV.

Also, we have the premiere of Scamdemic today, do we not, on Blaze TV?

That's right.

Yeah, it's tonight.

Scamdemic, Blaze Originals with Alex Stein talking about the COVID era,

our COVID era

PPP plan, which was going to help people, the paycheck protection that they were going to need in that era.

And a lot of people found a way to protect their paycheck.

Yeah, they found it by,

well, by using the system against itself and stealing billions of dollars from all of us.

And does anybody really seem to be upset about this?

I mean, those people should be made examples of and go to jail.

If you scammed the American people out of billions of dollars,

I mean, I have no, there's no love for you.

Look what you've done to our country.

And quite honestly, nobody was looking for anything.

This government didn't even track it.

They were just, oh, just send it, people will be trustworthy.

No.

Since when are people trustworthy when money is involved?

My gosh.

Yeah.

Well, they had to get the money out the door, Glenn, to save the country from

the terrible pandemic we were dealing with, you know, 18 months after it was over.

You know, all of that money, too.

So, yeah, I mean,

it was a massive, massive problem, of course, right?

Of course.

They were basically announcing you didn't have to do anything.

There was no checks at the beginning.

So people would just file.

They'd file under different names.

They'd file

dozens and dozens and dozens of requests.

They'd open up businesses just to get the checks.

It was all sorts of stuff that went on, but they're going to cover all of it tonight on Blaze Originals.

It's called Scamdemic.

If you use the promo code Scamdemic at blazetv.com/slash Glenn, you get 30 bucks off your annual subscription plus a seven-day free trial to check it out and see if you like it.

So, yeah,

my favorite part of the Scam Demic are those people that receive checks while in prison.

They apparently had to close their prison operation for a little while.

They were running great, you know, great

stores, little startups, you know, in prison, apparently.

Not.

And the government just didn't even know.

We're sending this to a prisoner.
