The hit Hulu original is back.

The Nightbuster died.

He was talking with this mobster.

Was he killed in a hit?

We need to go face to face with the mob.

Get ready for a season.

Buonziona signore.

This is how I die.

You can't refuse.

You're gonna save the day, like you always do, by being smart, sharp, and almost always find mistakes.

Terms apply.

New episodes Tuesdays.

Today, a fantastic, fantastic podcast.

Some really good information with Bill O'Reilly and then Michael Malice is, I think, one of the funniest times he's been on the program.

We also start with,

I was going to say some potato news, but that would be wrong.

We start with the news on Brian Stelter.

And, you know, I have a personal stake in that one.

As Stu points out early on in the broadcast podcast.

I do my best to goad you into being a bad person and

varying levels of success.

And then we take on General Hayden's remarks

as well as the New York Times, New York Times editorial that says Republicans are the most violent and extreme political force he has ever covered.

And as if the hyperbolic claims were not enough,

Hayden said, the former director of the CIA and the NSA, that he agreed with this absurd statement.

We point out it is not just

absurd.

It is one of the most dangerous statements, and you'll understand by the end of the podcast.

And by the way, don't forget, tomorrow, wherever you eat your podcast and on YouTube, you'll be able to watch my interview.

with Vivek Ramashwami.

He is fascinating.

We touched on some of the things he talked about in today's podcast, but if you care about your money and the dollar, boy, he broke some news on the podcast that I've never heard before.

And it's pretty intense, which brings me to our sponsor for the podcast, Goldline.

If you heard what I outlined and then what Vivek Rameshwami talked about in the podcast on just China alone,

this is catastrophe waiting to happen and no one is talking about it.

The world is going to change and when it does, man, your dollar could be worthless overnight.

Would you please, please find out if gold or silver is right for you?

It may not be.

You may say,

that's crazy.

I don't learn.

It is traditionally the hedge against inflation.

It is also traditionally the hedge against insanity because the world always resets to gold when the gods of the copybook headings return.

So, I want you to call them and tell them you heard about Goldline on my podcast and give them the code NMYB.

And you're going to get one of the MYB mind-your-business silver bars they give to you just for thanking that you were listening to the podcast and went to their website.

You can find all the information at goldline.com.

You can get the silver bar if you call them 866 Goldline.

866 Goldline or goldline.com.

You're listening to

the best of the Glenbeck program.

So,

what's going on in your world, Glenn?

Anything you want to talk about today?

I mean,

there's obviously something you want to mention

that I want to mention.

No, I don't have.

I mean,

I guess what you could do is take an inventory of the news stories of the day, right?

And then start to think about if you had any personal connection to them.

Let me think.

No, that's going on.

Well, no, I don't, I don't have any personal connection to any of those stories.

Do you?

Is there any personal connection you might feel to any of the major news stories of the day?

You know, for those people who are listening right now and they may not follow the news and have personal connections to the news,

they may be wondering, what are you even talking about?

Oh, well,

we're talking about a potential story that you might want to discuss today.

Yeah.

About

an individual

from CNN.

Well, there's two ways to go.

And the two ways to go would be

one would be very fun,

very satisfying.

Sure.

Funny.

Funny.

Entertaining.

Right?

Yeah.

And the other one would be Christ-like.

You know, the Bible, not always hilarious, I'd noticed.

No, no.

But usually, right.

Yeah, almost all the time.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So it's not that big of a struggle.

It's just I'm fighting the urge to be very, very funny.

Well, maybe it's worth instead of talking about today's news to look back at history.

You know?

Like, for example, let me look back in the annals of history to about four years ago when I was watching CNN

and there was an interview on

TV and

the host of the show,

the show's name was a Reliable Sources I think.

And I believe the interview was supposed to be about one thing.

I can't remember at all what that was, coming together or something like that.

But then it took a turn about halfway through.

And the interviewer started talking to the interviewee about how much trouble his business was in

um do we have a clip of it no come on oh really no no no no come on no i well she's saying she's because i was trying to describe it and i can only do that so well if we have the actual audio guide me satan

One's arguing justice, one's arguing mercy, or they say they have a familiar voice, but they're not.

All they're doing is playing politics, and the American people are tired of it.

Who is talking about an actual solution on this?

Who's actually done something?

Who's actually consistent and cared when it was a Democrat in office and cared when it was a Republican in office?

You know, those people exist around the country and they're watching you two, the media and Donald Trump, play in this little game back and forth and they're sick of it.

They don't want variety from either side.

I want the critique because I invited you on.

I'm self-aware enough to know that we need to talk about this because I know it's a problem.

The mainstream media is having a very hard time.

The mainstream media is having a very hard time reaching Trump's base.

That's a fact.

We see that in all the polls.

Yeah, well, then here's the deal.

Brian, you all have my phone number.

I've reached out to all of you in the past and said, let's have a conversation not on the air.

You really want to understand?

You want to hear the other side of the world.

Why can't our viewers?

Let's have a conversation where we can get a lot of people.

Why can't we talk about our viewers right now?

Because it's all about ratings.

This is all about ratings.

This is bringing it back to the past.

This isn't about ratings.

This is about saving our country, bringing us together.

Okay, that's nice.

Stop dividing us.

I mean, you.

I can't do it.

So, to be clear,

you think I'm dividing the country for ratings

by booking you?

Brian, stop drive.

Look at what you're doing.

When did this become about you?

This is about the media and the administration.

That's what you guys want to make it into.

If it was about me, I would do it in a comic book the way you used to.

Listening to me, Brian.

If it was about me, I'd get out of Blackboard the way you used to.

Oh,

is he being

maybe shouldn't?

I mean, the point is, what you mean is making it about me.

I don't see how I've made it about me.

I want to know.

It's not about.

You just said.

Never mind.

Look, Brian, if you want to have a conversation, the media really wants to know, great, we can have that conversation.

But every time someone, every time I've approached, everybody always says yes.

But as soon as it gets tough or uncomfortable, nobody's interested.

Nobody's interested in looking at themselves and saying, what did I do?

I know what I've done.

I know what I've done.

I've tried to make amends and I'm trying to.

And we've talked about that before.

I completely agree with you.

And we all do need to be more self-reflective.

I do have to ask you, there's this new headline on the Daily Beast saying that your company's in trouble.

Oh.

You were trying to find a buyer.

See, Glenn.

Is this related to the point about people not talking to each other?

That if you want to create that media company, there's not interest?

What's going on with that?

Wow.

Brian, thanks a lot.

I think that's the most ridiculous

question I've ever heard.

I'm sitting here ready to talk to you about the detaining of children and parents and trying to break families apart, something that has been happening with Janet Reno.

That's why it went to the Supreme Court in the first place.

Janet Reno.

It's been happening.

We want to stop it and you want to play those games.

Have a nice day.

What game did I just play?

Keep going.

Okay, see, Clint.

Now, you have, of course, as you pointed out, there's two ways to go with a news story.

And one of them is being incredibly Christ-like, as you were trying to be in that interview there.

But Brian Stelter was interviewing you about how your company was failing.

It's weird because

we're sitting here at work for that company right now.

And I don't know what Brian's doing, but not the same thing.

Is there anything that you would want to bring up on that?

Because as you point out, there's two ways to go with every news story.

Did that help bring you back to the moment a little bit, watching that clip once again and watching all the quizzical faces of Brian Stelter?

I don't understand.

Stop it.

Well, I think you knew I was going to antagonize you to see if you would break on Brian Stelter, but you didn't know that the video of that interview was coming.

And just to watch you kind of relive those moments,

the excited, stupid nature.

When your enemy falls, when he stumbles, you do not let your heart rejoice, or

the Lord will see it and disapprove and turn his wrath away from him.

Look,

I would agree with

my thought of the day.

That's my thought of the day.

By the way, we should mention Brian Stelter got fired.

We didn't mention that yet, but he's got let go.

Show canceled.

30-year show could not survive Brian Stelter.

Wish him well.

I will say this.

The lesson here is not to do that in 2018.

And some of the other things Brian has done through the last few years.

And I pointed this out to people yesterday who only know Brian Stelter from this recent

turn.

You know, this turn in the Trump era where he became a left-wing

media critic.

Get closer to the point.

But like, what I was saying was, I remember him from when we first started on cable news.

He reviewed your very first show.

It wasn't, I wouldn't say positive review, but it wasn't the worst review I ever had.

It was fair.

It was fair.

And he's written some of the most fair pieces about you at times.

A long time ago.

A long time ago.

And I honestly think he's a really good example of

what the Trump era has done to a lot of people in the media.

It's broken them.

Their anger against Donald Trump has changed a lot of people who, yes, they may have been liberal.

Yeah, they may have been Democrats.

They may have been left-leaning.

But it has changed them into completely irrational actors.

I don't think that's the only thing.

I really don't think that's the only thing that

has happened.

It is also a result of

your world being so small.

They're in New York City and New York City comes to New York City.

I mean, the world comes to New York City.

Sure.

And, you know, they're working at, you know, these places where you have global reach.

And so you think that you are the globe and you're very informed and you know everything because, look, I'm with the best people and the best people from all over the world.

And

it's so cosmopolitan here.

It's not.

Your friends are all exactly the same.

I agree.

It's not real life.

I definitely agree with that analysis.

That analysis existed long before.

2016.

No, I know, but the

hatred, I know, but the hatred of Donald Trump and the

and the political agenda.

Not everything was political.

See, right now, you cannot talk about anything without it being political.

Sports, political.

You know, the Big Pebble Beach Car Show I was watching on CNBC this morning, Big Pebble Beach Car Show.

That's political as well, because they're going to be talking about the new cars, the all-electric cars, et cetera, et cetera.

Why is everyone coming out with an electric car?

Political, politics.

I mean, everything now is politics.

Who you are,

how you see yourself is now fought out in the political space.

That's what's changed.

And the left has gone insane.

And people who used to be fairly reasonable

and used to agree with the Bill of Rights, They have been so skewed now that they, you know, we got to do things.

I'm for the Bill of Rights, but there's things we got to do.

No, no, no, there's not.

No, there's not on either side.

No, there is not.

You don't silence speech.

And so they get this,

they just get this snowball rolling in their own little click.

where everybody's thinking alike and you pour hate like gasoline onto that that fire and you're done.

You're done.

And you're choosing to not go that direction.

You're choosing

a skin wig right at your fingertips.

Our producers went out and they got skin wigs and they were like, this is going to be funny.

And

it would be so funny.

It would be so funny.

It would be so easy to do and so good.

But you're choosing to do the right thing.

And can we give Glenn some of the things?

No, shut up.

Come on.

There we go.

Shut up.

Glenn, you are such a jerk.

You know you agree with me.

Shut up.

The whole crowd.

No, shut up.

Did you hear it?

You agree.

We've talked about it on the air before.

You agree with me.

Look, of course, Glenn,

I am easily restrained in a moment like this.

Turn his microphone off.

I don't need that.

This isn't one of those moments that I would have trouble.

This is a moment that I can see you're struggling, and that's why I wanted to investigate how you were feeling.

Because as a friend,

I am concerned

with what you're doing.

Hey, let me give you something that I read that I think is so, really so spot-on from the American Thinker.

Exciting times, a dangerous but exhilarating moment in history to be alive.

The ground beneath us quakes, and everything once held certain seems turned to mush.

Whatever we grasp for balance proves unsteady, too.

The world is crashing down, it seems, and no countervailing force exists to keep everything in place.

when we accept this reality when we look around and say hey that was will never what was will never be again when the troubles around us become

seemingly unbearable but we say hey that's just not reality today our load becomes a little lighter to bear we are not here to fight for yesterday we are here to fight for tomorrow yesterday can only give us guidance

that is fantastic tomorrow gives us purpose

yet just because we fight for tomorrow doesn't mean we aren't also fighting for today when you learn to punch you're taught to aim beyond your target you punch through what you mean to hit to maximize the force and minimize the pain to yourself in the same way we aim for the future in order to seize today

We picture together what types of future we want.

We strive for that future with ferocity and perseverance.

And one day we look around and realize that we've just managed to build a remarkable world right here in the present.

Nothing endures in this earthly existence but that cycle.

It is what we do when challenges arise that matters.

Those acts, fleeting though they may be,

our shared legacy toward one another.

So let's look at the international communist great reset or build back better dystopias as inevitable, if you want.

But do so knowing that you're watching strikes being thrown into the catcher's mitt without ever swinging.

Your mind and soul provide a powerful bat.

Our enemies are throwing heat right down the center of the plate, and there has never been a better time to swing for the fences.

The globalist programs for mass control of humanity have become glaringly obvious.

They don't even hide their intentions anymore behind veiled language, secret club meetings, or slanderous aspersions against their critics.

They just say it out loud in the open.

Yep, we want to reduce the human population, control all energy used for commerce, regulate food production, censor all information, antithetical to our goals.

cynically divide humanity against itself by promoting meaningless wars, racial hostilities, and ludicrous social conflicts, and force the vast majority of remaining humans

into the future to survive as indentured servants who will own nothing and subsist, I guess, on a diet of bugs.

That is an ugly, depressing, awful future to advertise.

Yet, it is their arrogant plan.

Their arrogant hubris, absolute hubis, and we should love it because we couldn't ask for a better drug to cloud the judgment of our enemies.

They're hooked, they can't see clearly.

Do we?

It is a really, really good op-ed.

Again, it's an American thinker.

This is the best of the Glenbeck program.

This is the Glen Beck program, Mr.

Michael Malice.

This is the only show that has a swing this dramatic from

Bill O'Reilly to the anarchist Michael Malice.

And I'm standing somewhere in between going, I got to get these two together.

This would be a scream.

Hey, Michael, how are you?

Do you really want to set me up for punchlines against Mr.

O'Reilly?

No, I don't.

I'm friends with both of you.

Play nice.

Well, that wouldn't last long if we were in a room together.

So, I know.

I know.

Have you ever been in a room with him?

He'd pound you to death.

Oh, is that really what you think is going to happen?

Can we not please?

Play nice.

You said, Let's get him in a room together.

I said, Okay, then you're like, Wait a minute, this is a bad idea.

No, I want people to imagine it.

I don't need to dwell on it with you.

It would be something like Jill and Joe.

Jill.

Okay, all right.

Enough.

How are you, sir?

I am fantastic.

You know why I'm so fantastic this morning?

Why?

Because this has been a very bad week for the pig people.

First, Brian Stelter is fired from CNN.

Liz Cheney

goes back on her broom to Wyoming.

Okay.

If Officer Harris breaks one of her hooves, it's going to be a trifecta.

So here's the, you know, we talked about the Brian Stelter thing this morning, and Stu did everything he could just to turn the knife in me to because I'm trying to not kick someone when they're down.

And I, I, I, I, it would be so easy to just

dance on that grave.

Really, for me personally, very easy to do.

And it's not the right thing to do.

It's going to be really hard for that potato to get back up, you know, when a turtle's on his back.

Okay, all right, okay.

Uh, can I talk to you about the Liz Cheney thing?

Please.

Yeah.

Okay.

All right.

Your thoughts on the delusions of grandeur from Liz Cheney?

Oh, I think you're a little wrong in this sense if you're talking about her running for president, because what she's going to do, and Glenn, you've been in this business even longer than I have, and you understand how it works.

What happens is you run for president with no intention of becoming president.

You run for president so that when you go on CNN or MSNBC, now the Chiron, the little title on your screen will say

Liz Cheney, former presidential candidate.

And now she can get a huge book deal about what a hero she is.

She can be on TV in perpetuity.

And she can hustle money from gullible donors to basically fund a campaign where she goes around the country running her mouth.

So it's a very smart move for her.

I think a lot of Republican voters think, ha ha ha, she's going to lose.

She knows she's going to lose, but at the same time, she's going to get enormously wealthy, increase her stature, and she'll get to replace, you know, Bill Crystal or Jennifer Rubin when they

go back to their nursing home.

So what you're saying to me, if I may paraphrase,

strike me down and I will become even more powerful.

I mean, but we've seen this over and over.

I mean, Bill Weld, who was, you know, couldn't even become the ambassador to Mexico, he had to resign, be governor of Massachusetts, he was on MSNBC or CNN in 2018 or 19, advocating for President Trump to get the death penalty.

And no one even batted an eye because he was saying, you know,

President Trump committed treason.

The punishment for treason is death.

It's insane the levels to which these failures are allowed to be given platforms.

And so put that in the past.

That's not a surprise to anybody.

I mean, honestly, I think she could take Brian Stelter's job at CNN.

And it would not surprise me.

Of course, the guy who, you know, stabbed Selman rushdie could get the job and that wouldn't surprise me so um but but but that's what they always do and i don't think the press has any credibility anymore and i really wonder its impact

well i think there is an enormous amount of impact well first of all she she she I mean, the Salman Rushdie job isn't as good as Liz Cheney at killing people.

So she really has that over him.

And in all seriousness, one of the reasons I think this woman is uniquely despicable is as of 2018, she was still telling John McCain how good torture is and how lying about that the CIA's torture program gave us useful information.

So if you're sitting and advocating torture and to John McCain, you are at a level of depravity that's far and above pretty much anyone else in politics.

And I think it's going to be hilarious, though, if she runs and as an independent, because Andrew Yang, that snake, is doing everything he can to court her, to join his forward party.

If you look at his Twitter, if she runs as a third party and she would draw votes exclusively from anti-Republican people, which would otherwise go to Biden or the Democratic nominee, that press will turn on her so fast or her head will spin and she'll have to go back home to her husband, Hermit the Frog.

We're talking to Michael Malis.

Wait, that's interesting, Michael.

You think all of the votes would come from Democratic votes?

I mean, the idea, I think, of of the candidacy, right, would be to pull moderate Republicans who don't like Donald Trump over to vote for her as an independent.

You think they'd all come from the left?

No, they'd all,

if she was not there and the choice is Biden or whoever the nominee is versus Trump, all those votes in a binary system are going to go toward the Democratic candidate.

I agree.

They don't like Biden or the candidate, just hate Trump.

That's why they're voting for Biden.

And I really think, Stu, that the people that I've talked to,

they're either for Trump or they're for Ron DeSantis, but they will always say the same thing to me, always.

I really hope that DeSantis is the guy, but I am fully behind Trump if he's the candidate.

You know what I mean?

So I don't think it's like, ah, if I want DeSantis,

I'll vote for Liz Cheney.

Right.

You know, it's just, I just think that's, that's not going to happen.

I'd love to get your opinion on this.

The editor and national editor and columnist for the Financial Times

kind of echoed the words of our former CIA director Michael Hayden, who said the Republicans are the most dangerous political force in history.

Luce said, I've covered extremism and violent ideologies around the world over my career.

Hey, I've never come across a political force more nihilistic, dangerous, contemptible than today's Republican.

Nothing even close.

Yeah, I wish the Republican Party was as one-tenth as awesome as they're trying to make them out to be.

They couldn't even abolish NPR.

I'm going to get serious for a second to your listeners.

Every single agency that the Republicans shake their fists about, like the CIA this week, have been funded and supported by Republican congresspeople for decades without batting an eye.

So this claim that they're going to burn anything down is completely fallacious.

They fund things year after year.

As Stu and I discussed when he was on my show a couple years back, when you had Trump in the White House and a Republican Congress, they didn't even try to cut the budget.

Well, I will tell you: this is completely nonsensical.

This is why I really think that the Republicans have one more shot, and they're not going to do it with the people who are in.

It's got to be new blood that is in there.

But

the Mitch McConnells of the world still think it's 1975.

They still think they're playing the same game and nothing has changed because they haven't changed.

However, Republicans have changed.

And Republicans, voters, who I think the party, the upper echelons, despise their own voters.

But

if Congress gets in and does not

defund the IRS or the

Department of Education, the CIA, and I'm not saying completely defund it so we don't have that agency.

I know you would.

I'm saying defund it to the part to where it really cripples them until they start doing transparent reforms.

And when I say on the,

I'm only talking about the Department of Justice.

I'm not talking necessarily about the CIA, and I'm not talking about the Department of Ed.

I'm fine.

Get rid of them.

I'm fine with that.

Yeah, I think there's a lot to what you're saying.

First of all, it's kind of ironic because new blood is Liz Cheney's favorite breakfast.

But

I do think we're at a point with the Republican base and they have so much.

Remember, in 2012, Paul Ryan was regarded as the right wing of the party.

That's why Mitt Romney brought him onto the ticket.

I think the base has gotten so enraged and social media helps them with this at the frauds that the Republican politicians are, that if they don't start showing receipts, things are going to keep getting uglier and uglier in this country, and the Republicans will be to blame for it in part.

I just stood in front of a bunch of Republicans just this week, and I said, You guys have one more election.

One more.

If you don't produce results, if you get the House or the Senate in January, people that vote for you guys will be done.

We'll be done.

And Donald Trump would be exactly the kind of guy to start a new party.

Or it wouldn't even be starting a new party.

It would be just, who knows what would happen.

I don't mean in terms of violence, just in terms of like when you have a huge percentage of population just absolutely disgusted with politics, you know, things start breaking apart in terms of authority, in terms of systems working, in terms of civil disobedience.

You know, things get messy.

We're already almost there.

Thank you so much michael i appreciate it always a pleasure folks have a good weekend bye-bye michael malice

this is the best of the glenn beck program

all right so the u.s has dominated the global global financial system for a long time and it is truly one of the main reasons We are so wealthy.

Okay.

Because our dollar, after World War II, let me just explain this to you quickly.

After World War II,

nobody had any gold except the United States.

We had almost all the gold from all around the world because the entire Western world was fighting against the Nazis and the Japanese, and they needed ships and planes and bullets and guns and everything else.

And we were one of the only industrial powers that hadn't been bombed.

So we had everything, plus we had cheap energy and we had educated workers.

We could transform

our plants to build anything.

We in three years were building more planes, better quality than the Germans were producing.

And they had had, you know, 20 years of building up these plants and getting it down.

So we were a force to be

reckoned with.

And everybody had to buy the stuff from us because it was really their only choice.

And they paid in gold.

So that's one of the reasons why we were so successful.

When we got off the gold standard, the world thought, okay,

they're going to destroy their dollar and they're doing what's right for America and not right for the rest of the world because we promised them a dollar would equal a dollar of gold.

Then we changed, when we got rid of gold, we said it's going to be the petro dollar.

And it's a deal we made with Saudi Arabia that oil could only be purchased in U.S.

dollars.

Okay, so everybody had to hold those dollars because if you wanted oil, it could only be purchased in U.S.

dollars.

So they kept all of our money into the banks.

All the sovereigns kept,

you know, gold, fat chance, and dollars in their banks.

And that's how the world works.

Once the dollar is over,

Rocky

can be replaced.

Believe me, it will be.

So the international system is maintained by several dollar-dominated organizations like the IMF, the World Bank, the World Trade Organization.

I want to point out that all of the aboard are on board or all of the above are on board with the Davos

and the Great Reset.

And countries like Russia and China and Saudi Arabia know this.

So when we went into Ukraine, there was one action by the West that changed and accelerated absolutely everything, everything.

It was the dollar-dominated system.

It took hundreds of billions of dollars held by the Russians and made it go poof.

We ghosted hundreds of billions of dollars.

Now imagine if Saudi Arabia or China or anybody did that to us.

If we were holding all of their money, and I'm going to show you how it's going to happen with China soon because of people like BlackRock and what they're doing with investments in China.

But imagine billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars just disappear overnight because China says we no longer agree with you.

But imagine if it wasn't in the stock market, it was actually dollars that were held instead of gold.

And the promise was: it will always be worth the price of gold.

So, China, Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia, remember, we don't have a gold-backed dollar, we now have a petro dollar.

Saudi Arabia, part of it, they are like, you know what, I just don't, I think we should get out of the dollar business.

Well, that's easy to say, harder to do.

Okay.

First, what they had to do was start to decouple from the entire thing.

And the Axis powers already had this in works.

Iran announced that they're now officially ditching the dollar in trade.

And their growing ally now is Russia.

They also announced similar trade plans with China, India, and Turkey.

Iran, Russia, and Turkey.

So you know,

that has never happened before.

And and that is literally what the Bible in end time revelation refers to as Gog and

Magog,

the two,

the coalition, if you will, that is the coalition of the Antichrist,

Gog and Magog, that is Iran, Russia, and modern-day Turkey.

They met last month and they all but admitted a new anti-American alliance that they call, quote, the axis of good.

I would say it's the axis of evil.

But remember, in a time where all good is made to be bad and all bad is made to be good, they're calling themselves the axis of good.

As the Western G nations met in June, another economic and military pack was meeting nearly simultaneously.

It was the BRICS Summit that nobody strangely was really covering or paying attention to.

BRICS is composed of BRIC, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

It's just five countries, but the potential is massive.

Each country has participation in their own individual trade blocks.

For instance, Brazil is part of the South American Free Trade Area, which has 11 members.

Russia is part of the European Economic Union, the trade area, with eight members.

India, South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, eight members.

China has their own partnership with 15 members.

South Africa has a trade agreement with 34 member states.

Now, I point this out because this Axis is a juggernaut.

It could become a juggernaut and hostile to the U.S.

dollar really fast.

So at the beginning of the BRICS summit, President Z was there and he declared that the West was, quote, weaponizing the world's economy.

We were.

Everything we do, if you don't agree with what the West is saying, particularly America, we'll cut you off.

Well, that's not really a stable system.

So they got together and the BRICS at the BRICS summit, they laid out 75 points.

And here's what President Z was saying.

He urged people in the West to read it.

Now, why would he do that?

Because he wants you to know exactly what's coming.

For the economic axis of evil or good to replace the dollar international system, they must first find a way to operate outside of the IMF, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization.

And the dollar is the last one.

The IMF, International Monetary Fund,

and the World Bank, these are the ones that, you know, kind of settle debts and work together and decide who's going to, you know, get some bailouts, who's not.

The WTO is the Western trade agreement, and then the dollar is the one that everybody uses.

Points 37 and 38 are about, quote, enhancing cooperation on supply chains between BRICS countries and their partners.

And it goes into specifics, but it's clear what this is about.

They're going to replace the World Trade Organization.

Point 39 talks about a, quote, new development bank that has just been opened in Shanghai.

That's their solution to both the World Bank and the IMF.

Point 49 talks about the new intra-BRICS trade system that can make transactions within their group.

What does that mean?

Do you remember when we kicked the world off of Swift?

We'll get them now.

They won't be able to make transactions because we're the only one with a system that can make those inner bank and inner country transactions.

We're going to kick them off of Swift.

Huh.

There's a new intra-bricks trade system that will do what Swift used to do.

The last thing is to ditch the dollar and they can completely circumvent Western sanctions.

But it also will mean that half the world will dump their dollars.

You think there's inflation now?

Wait until half of the countries of the world no longer need to use the dollar.

No longer believe it's worth its weight in gold and just dump them.

Putin said directly, right out in the open during the BRICS summit, they are telling us what they're going to do.

They are urging us to pay attention.

And we are so arrogant that we are not taking it seriously.

Everything I pointed out to all of those friends and economists that I've talked to over the last 20 years

that the dollar is going to be dethroned and they said no because there's no other system you don't understand and I said I understand the free market and humans enough to know

there's a point of no return where people say, you know what?

It's not worth it.

Let's build something else and then clobber the dollar.

That will never happen.

Well, I've lived in a point of history where I've seen too many things that cannot happen

happen.

By the way,

if you have to live under this system, which we will,

all of this goes through, I want you to know this.

Brazil is the world's second largest soy producer.

Russia is the largest wheat producer.

South Africa is top 10 in corn.

China has a quarter of

the world's grain.

India is number two in rice.

You add Saudi Arabia and we're done.

What is it we're doing?

We should be reinforcing.

We should be unleashing our

energy

producers.

We should be unleashing our farmers.

There's new stories out today that 75% of the farmers and ranchers either sold off a good portion of their cattle for slaughter, and if they were

growing crops, a third of it they plowed under.

We should be

going the opposite direction.

We are regulating and squeezing our own people and then pissing off the rest of the world.

Prepare for impact because it will come.

It's not a conspiracy theory.

It is not insane.

Russia and China are doing it now.

Prepare yourself.
