Are America's leaders enabling chaos in Israel and the border?

July 30, 2014
Wilson

Writer

There is a leader vacuum that is evident in every corner of America and the entire world, and you can see it manifesting itself in our news stories.

I want to start with Israel today. Yesterday we showed you some of the most gruesome pictures I have ever seen. They were shocking, the truth of what the enemies of mankind, the radical Islamists, are capable of. Now, their direct enemy, the enemy of truth, Hamas, is once again calling for the extermination of corrupt Jews. Look at this.

How do you possibly expect someone to sit down at a peace table where they are saying, “We will exterminate every single one of you” and then back it up with their Scriptures? It’s insanity.

A Hamas rocket misfired yesterday, landing in a hospital in Gaza, killing nine children. Who did Hamas say did it? They said Israel did. Israel’s cabinet is now warning that they are seeing the signs of the beginning of another Holocaust, but instead of believing that that is even possible, of course it is, listen to the words of the leaders. It’s like read Mein Kampf. How did you miss this?

It’s because you don’t want to look at that. The world chooses to believe terrorists. The world chooses to believe that they can’t possibly be that horrible. The Associated Press looked more like Gaza propaganda today. Earlier today this is what they said: “As much of world watches Gaza war in horror, members of Congress fall over each other to support Israel.” Excuse me? Did you see what we just played for you? That was Hamas.

They went on. The spin continued. They said the violence was Israel’s fault, “Senior Palestinian official offers 24 hour truce in Gaza, says he’s also speaking for Hamas.” Really? More, “A spokesman brushed aside the offer, saying until Israel hears from Hamas directly, it’s not serious.” Well, of course it’s not serious. The Associated Press views Hamas as the victim who just wants to give peace a chance, but they will dismiss the words that I just played for you, and they will conclude that it’s just these darn Israelis that just can’t, you know, can’t get along with everybody.

This Sunday, TheBlaze was one of the first to report through Sharona Schwartz, our reporter in Israel, she reported on the truth on Hamas. She showed the mega-attack that was being plotted and planned through the Gaza terror tunnels that was stopped.

And what the plan was is they were going to, Hamas was going to dress as Israeli soldiers, which, by the way, is against the Geneva Convention, and they had all of these uniforms that they had either stolen or had made. And they were going to go through the terror tunnels, and they were going to kidnap as many Jews as possible.

Leaders of the world are too afraid, too cowardice, or too bought and sold, they don’t even know who they are anymore, and they won’t stand boldly in the truth. Instead, we get John Kerry. Now, John Kerry, I don’t mean to be divisive here, you know how I feel about him, but this peace deal that he was offering to Israel was laughed off by everyone in the region, including the Palestinian Authority.

He has done something that nobody else has been able to do since the time of Abraham, and that is unite Jew and Arab and Palestinian alike, everybody together, unite them laughing at him. I don’t think that’s ever happened. Hamas was the only one who benefited from this offer, and even the Egyptians, they were mocking him openly. That’s leadership? And then we have something even worse, the people like the Democratic Senate candidate Michelle Nunn. Her father has got to be horrified by this. Her stance has just come out in a memo on Israel.

Her stance was to be determined by how much financial opportunity there is, so who’s going to give me more cash? Are the Jews going to give me more cash, the Palestinians, who? Because I’ll determine it largely on the level of support. It is disgusting. It is frustrating. It is un-American. It is un-American. I don’t know who we are anymore because we have lost our why. Why are we even a nation anymore?

The debate on illegal immigration, everybody’s rushing in to find a quick solution, let’s find a solution, got to find a solution. Could we just ask people, “Why are you here?” It’s a simple question. Ask them that simple question, “Why are you coming here?” If you do, you’ll find out because most will say Obama will take care of us. Those are quotes, “Obama will take care of us. He will grant us amnesty.”

Yesterday, illegal immigrants protested outside of the White House. If you are not afraid, if you are here illegally, and you’re protesting in front of the White House, and you notice, nobody’s face is being blurred here. Really? You’re completely unafraid of the law. There is no justice. It’s completely broken down.

A leader in Washington would tell people, “Stop coming.” We love you, we have compassion, we will find those who are really, truly needing asylum, but that’s it, stop coming here. It’s what I did on this network, but it’s what the president needs to do on every network. And because he doesn’t, there’s a vacuum, and people now are taking matters into their own hands.

I’m warning you, when justice fails, vengeance grows if we don’t grow mercy, and this is the end. We now have armed militias moving across Texas. This is different than the Minutemen. The Minutemen were unarmed and simply reporting illegal crossings. Now, I’m sure that most people in this militia have good intentions. Well, I don’t know, I don’t know. They’re being described as antigovernment, but I’m described as antigovernment, so I don’t know.

I know that if you are carrying guns down on the border, it’s not going to end well and especially if it is driven by anger. Even if it is righteous anger, it’s a recipe for disaster.

The world needs leaders, and as our founders proved, you don’t have to be some fancy CEO at the top of an organizational chart to lead. Anybody can do it. Anyone can do it. Perhaps it’s you.

Tonight, our guest is going to try to shore that up because the next great leader might just be you.

Presidential debate recap: The good, the bad and the ugly

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

The second presidential debate was many things--some good, some bad, but one thing was made clear: this election is far from over.

If you were watching the debate with Glenn during the BlazeTV exclusive debate coverage, then you already know how the debate went: Kamala lied through her teeth and Trump faced a three-pronged attack from Harris and the two ABC moderators. This was not the debate performance we were hoping for, but it could have gone far worse. If you didn't get the chance to watch the debate or can't bring yourself to watch it again and are looking for a recap, we got you covered. Here are the good, the bad, and the ugly from the second presidential debate:

The Good

Let's start with what went well.

While there was certainly room for improvement, Trump's performance wasn't terrible, especially compared to his performance in other debates. He showed restraint, kept himself from being too brash, and maintained the name-calling to a minimum. In comparison, Kamala Harris was struggling to maintain her composure. Harris was visibly emotional and continued to make obnoxious facial expressions, which included several infuriating eye-rolls and patronizing smirks.

The Bad

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

Despite all that, the debate could have gone much better...

While Trump was able to keep his cool during the debate, he was not able to stay on track. Kamala kept making inflammatory comments meant to derail Trump, and every time, he took the bait. Trump spent far too long defending his career and other extraneous issues instead of discussing issues relevant to the American people and revealing Kamala's failures as Vice President.

Trump's biggest blunder during the debate was his failure to prevent Kamala from leaving that debate looking like a credible option as president. Kamala was fairly unknown to the American people and had remained that way on purpose, giving only one interview after Biden stepped down from the campaign. This is because every time Kamala opens her mouth, she typically makes a fool of herself. Trump needed to give Kamala more time to stick her foot in her mouth and to press Kamala on the Biden administration's failures over the past four years. Instead, he took her bait and let her run down the clock, and by the end of the debate, she left looking far more competent than she actually is.

The Ugly

If anything, the debate reminded us that this election is far from over, and it's more important now than ever for Trump to win.

The most noteworthy occurrence of the debate was the blatantly obvious bias of the ABC debate moderators against Trump. Many people have described the debate as a "three vs. one dogpile," with the moderators actively participating in debating Trump. If you didn't believe that the media was in the back pocket of the Democrats before, it's hard to deny it now. Kamala stood on stage and lied repeatedly with impunity knowing that the moderators and the mainstream media at large would cover for her.

The stakes have never been higher. With so many forces arrayed against Trump, it's clear to see that the Left cannot afford to let Trump win this November. The shape of America as we know it is on the line. Kamala represents the final push by the globalist movement to take root and assimilate America into the growing global hivemind.

The election is far from over. This is our sign to stand up and fight for our nation and our values and save America.

Glenn: Illegal aliens could swing the 2024 election, and it spells trouble for Trump

ELIZABETH RUIZ / Stringer | Getty Images

Either Congress must pass the SAVE Act, or states must protect the integrity of their elections — especially the seven swing states that could shift the outcome of 2024 by a hair’s breadth.

Progressives rely on three main talking points about illegal aliens voting in our elections.

The first is one of cynical acceptance. They admit that illegal immigrants are already voting but argue that there is nothing we can do to stop it, suggesting that it’s just another factor we should expect in future elections. This position shows no respect for our electoral system or the rule of law and doesn’t warrant further attention.

This election will be very similar to 2020. It’s like football — a game of inches.

The second talking point targets the right. Progressives question why Republicans care, asking why they assume illegal immigrants voting would only benefit the other side. They suggest that some of these voters might also support the GOP.

On this point, the data says otherwise.

Across the board, immigrants vote overwhelmingly for Democrats, regardless of what state they’re in. The vast majority of migrants are coming up from South America, a region that is undergoing a current “left-wing” experiment by voting for far-left candidates practically across the board. Ninety-two percent of South America’s population favors the radical left, and they’re pouring over our border in record numbers — and, according to the data, they’re not changing their voting habits.

The third main talking point concedes that illegal immigrants are voting but not enough to make a significant dent in our elections — that their effect is minuscule.

That isn’t what the numbers show either.

Texas just audited its voter rolls and had to remove more than 1 million ineligible voters. The SAVE Act would mandate all states conduct such audits, but the left in Congress is currently trying to stop its passage. Dare I say that the left's pushback is because illegal immigration actually plays in Democrats' favor on Election Day?

Out of the 6,500 noncitizens removed from the voter rolls, nearly 2,000 had prior voting history, proving that illegal aliens are voting. But do the numbers matter, or are they “minuscule,” as the left claims? Let’s examine whether these illegal voting trends can make a dent in the states that matter the most on Election Day.

The corporate legacy media agree that Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin will swing the election in November. By Election Day, an estimated 8 million illegal aliens will be living in the United States. Can these 8 million illegal immigrants change the course of the 2024 election? Let’s look at the election data from each of these seven swing states:

These are the numbers being sold to us as “insignificant” and “not enough to make a difference.” Arizona and Georgia were won in 2020 by a razor-thin margin of approximately 10,000 votes, and they have the most illegal immigrants — besides North Carolina — of all the swing states.

This election will be very similar to 2020. It’s like football — a game of inches. The progressives are importing an electorate to extend their ground by feet, yards, and often miles.

This is why Democrats in Congress oppose the SAVE Act, why the Justice Department has ignored cases of illegal voting in the past, and why the corporate left-wing media is gaslighting the entire country on its significance. This is a power play, and the entire Western world is under the same assault.

If things stay the status quo, these numbers prove the very real possibility of an election swing by illegal immigrants, and it will not favor our side of the aisle. Congress must pass the SAVE Act. If it fails, states must step up to protect the integrity of their elections — especially the seven swing states that could shift the outcome of 2024 by a hair’s breadth.

Hunter pleads GUILTY, but did he get a pass on these 3 GLARING crimes?

Anna Moneymaker / Staff | Getty Images

Last week, Hunter Biden made the shocking decision to suddenly plead guilty to all nine charges of tax-related crimes after claiming innocence since 2018.

Hunter first tried an "Alford plead" in which a defendant maintains their innocence while accepting the sentencing, typically due to the overwhelming evidence against them. Hunter's Alford plead was not accepted after the prosecutors objected to the suggestion, and Hunter quickly pleaded guilty.

Glenn could not believe just how disrespectful this situation was to the justice system and the American people. After years of lying about his innocence, which only served to deepen the divide in our country, Hunter decided to change his tune at the last minute and admit his guilt. Moreover, many expect Joe Biden will swoop in after the election and bail his son out with a presidential pardon.

This isn't the first time Hunter's crimes have turned out to be more than just a "right-wing conspiracy theory," and, odds are, it won't be the last. Here are three crimes Hunter may or may not be guilty of:

Gun charges: Found guilty

This June, Hunter Biden was found guilty of three federal gun charges, which could possibly land him up to 25 years in prison. Hunter purchased a revolver in 2018 while addicted to crack, and lied to the gun dealer about his addiction. While Hunter could face up to 25 years in prison, it's unlikely to be the case as first-time offenders rarely receive the maximum sentence. That's assuming Joe even lets it go that far.

Tax evasion: Plead guilty

Last week, Hunter changed his plea to "guilty" after years of pleading innocent to federal tax evasion charges. Since 2018, Delaware attorneys have been working on Hunter's case, and just before the trial was set to begin, Hunter changed his plea. According to the investigation, Hunter owed upwards of $1.4 million in federal taxes that he avoided by writing them off as fraudulent business deductions. Instead, Hunter spent this money on strippers, escorts, luxury cars, hotels, and, undoubtedly, crack.

Joe's involvement with Hunter's foreign dealings: Yet to be proven

Despite repeated claims against it, there is ample evidence supporting the theory Joe Biden was aware of Hunter's business dealings and even had a hand in them. This includes testimony from Devon Archer, one of Hunter's business partners, confirming Joe joined several business calls. Despite the mounting evidence Joe Biden was involved in Hunter's overseas business dealings and was using his influence to Hunter's benefit, the Bidens still maintain their innocence.

Why do we know so much about the Georgia shooter but NOTHING about Trump's shooter?

Jessica McGowan / Stringer | Getty Images

It's only been a few days since the horrific shooting at the Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, and the shooter, Colt Gray, and his father, Colin Gray, have already made their first court appearance. Over the last few days, more and more information has come out about the shooter and his family, including details of Colt's troubled childhood and history of mental health issues. The FBI said Colton had been on their radar.

This situation has Glenn fired up, asking, "Why do we have an FBI?" It seems like every time there is a mass shooting, the FBI unhelpfully admits the shooter was "on the radar," but what good does that do? While it is great we know everything about the Georgia shooter, including what he got for Christmas, why do we still know next to NOTHING about Trump's would-be assassin? Here are three things we know about the Georgia shooter that we stilldon't know about the Trump shooter:

Digital footprint

Just a few days after the shooting, authorities have already released many details of the Georgia shooter, Colt Gray's, digital footprint. This includes extensive conversations and photographs revolving around school shootings that were pulled from Gray's Discord account, a digital messaging platform.

Compared to this, the FBI claims Thomas Crooks, the shooter who almost assassinated Donald Trump, had little to no digital footprint, and outside of an ominous message sent by Crooks on Steam (an online video game platform), we know nothing about his online activities. Doesn't it seem strange that Crooks, a young adult in 2024 who owned a cell phone and a laptop left behind no digital trail of any relevance to his crime?

Home life

The FBI has painted a vivid image of what Colt Gray's home life was like, including his troubling relationship with his parents. They released information about his parents' tumultuous divorce, being evicted from his home, several interactions with law enforcement and CPS, and abuse. Investigators also found written documents of Colt's related to other school shootings, suggesting he had been thinking of this for some time before committing the atrocity.

In contrast, we still know next to nothing about Crooks's home life.

How he got the weapon

Spencer Platt / Staff | Getty Images

Colt Gray was gifted the rifle he used in the shooting from his father for Christmas last year. We also know Colt's father is an avid hunter and would take Colt on hunting trips. In 2023, Colt was the subject of an investigation regarding a threat he made online to shoot up a school. During the interview, Colt stated he did not make the threat. Moreover, his father admitted to owning several firearms, but said Colt was not allowed full access to them. The investigation was later closed after the accusations could not be sustained.

In comparison, all we know is that Crooks stole his father's rifle and did not inform his parents of any part of his plan. We have no clue how Crooks acquired the rest of his equipment, which included nearly a hundred extra rounds of ammunition, a bullet-proof vest, and several homemade bombs. How did Crooks manage to acquire all of his equipment without the FBI taking notice?

It feels like the FBI is either incompetent or hiding important information from the American people. Or both.
