Glenn's Dream Team

March 02, 2016
Lori Hanes

Writer

Trump's next move? Do all he can to pitt the other candidates against each other and against Ted Cruz. If he can to feed the animosity between them, making sure they stay in their current places, they won't unite and come together.

But, if the candidates do unite behind Ted Cruz --- because he's the only one with the numbers to beat Donald Trump --- there is a pathway to victory.

Glenn outlined his dream team to accomplish just that.

Enjoy this complimentary clip from The Glenn Beck Program:

Below is a rush transcript of this segment, it might contain errors:

GLENN: So let me give you a couple of things. I'll tell you what I think should happen. But let me give you a couple of observations from last night. I wrote about last night, about 9 o'clock, that the next move for Trump is do all he can through people like Roger Stone to put all other candidates against Ted Cruz.

He has to keep them apart. So what I mean is to do everything he can to feed animosity between the other candidates to make sure they stay in the places that they are, that they don't start gathering together. Look for those dirty tricks that will divide -- divide each other even more than they already are divided.

But then there's something else that you should watch for with Donald Trump. And he was already doing it. The G.O.P. is at the -- is at the point of death. And their decision is this: Get behind your base of conservatives and deep conservatives that currently support Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio or stand with Donald Trump because he will make deals and move to the progressive middle to get Democrats to vote for him.

I believe that this is what you're going to see Donald Trump do. And this is exactly what he did last night at the -- when he was speaking.

He will begin to move to the left because that's who he really is. He's much more Chris Christie than anything else. And he is a progressive liberal from New York. And so he's going to move now to the left. And he's just going to say, "Look, I'm just trying to reach out because we're going to make this tent bigger. We're going to make this tent uge."

And the -- the G.O.P. has to decide: Do you want to have a uge tent that doesn't include the conservatives, but does include all of the progressive Chuck Schumers and the liberals who are disenfranchised with Hillary Clinton? Are you going to become the Democratic Party?

He will tell the party leaders that he's going to grow the party and they shouldn't worry about the loss of the conservative base, quote, because they're not going to go anywhere. The G.O.P. has never liked the conservatives in the first place, neither has Donald Trump.

Donald Trump has said how stupid those people are in the past. His policies are not small government in the past or currently. He's more progressive than Boehner, John McCain, or McConnell. The G.O.P. will choose to throw in with Trump over Cruz and the conservatives. And I believe it will be the end of the Grand Old Party because they forgot who took them there, what their principles were in the first place, and conservatives are tired of being treated like a redheaded stepchild. And they will not go for it anymore.

So what do we do? Where are we now? What should happen to -- to us? What should Ted Cruz do at this point?

I think it's really quite easy to see a path to real victory here. And that -- that path starts today, really, if Ted Cruz is open to offering some positions.

I think if Ted Cruz came out and said to Marco Rubio -- and I don't think Marco Rubio would take this. But I think if he came out and said, "Marco, we have got to work together. And I know that we have differences, but neither of us are going to win if we keep this going on. You don't have a path to victory." And Rubio will get insulted and argue back and forth. Because I saw him on television, argue back and forth. That's because the government progressives have gotten into his head.

But you don't have a way -- you don't have a way to win. You need to join me. And together we can win. And I'll make you the vice president. Because you're young. What are you, 12? You're young. You'll be able to run --

PAT: You're about the same page.

GLENN: No, he seems he's like 12, doesn't he?

PAT: Yeah. He does.

GLENN: You're going to be able to run for president. You'll be vice president. And then you can run for president after that.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: But we have to save the republic.

PAT: Uh-huh.

GLENN: So you run as vice president. Ben Carson, you're going to be the attorney general if you'll take it. Let's make Rand Paul the secretary of -- of -- of treasury. Let's start to put together a dream team here, and let's march together.

Now, I don't think that's going to happen because there are too many people in Washington that want to keep their position.

As I was driving into the studios here that we have, you know, right by Union Station here in Washington, DC, we're a block away from the capitol, TheBlaze facilities. And I'm looking at all these buildings, and they're all unions. You know, the Association of Realtors. And all these lobbyists. There's too much money here to be made. There's too much power. Too many buildings that have been built for this stuff for those guys to let go of their power easily.

And so they don't want somebody like Ted Cruz. Because Ted Cruz is going to say, "Get out. Get out." All of this is unconstitutional, get out. Let's listen to the people.

But I would pray for a miracle. Because here's why this has to be done now. Stu, correct me if I'm wrong. But I believe Florida and Ohio are winner-take-all states, are they not?

STU: Yeah, they are.

GLENN: So we don't have the time to prove Marco Rubio wrong. He is 20 points behind in Florida. If he would join Ted Cruz, they would win Florida. If they don't join, they will both lose Florida and it's a winner-take-all state, and you're going to have Donald Trump as your nominee. And there won't be any way to go. It will be too late.

The people who say Donald Trump should not be president need to come together. And I said this yesterday to Ted Cruz.

Ted, if you don't walk away with the lion's share of the delegates in second place tomorrow. If it's Marco Rubio, I'm going to come to you and tell you, "You got to get behind the other guy." Whoever has the lion's share of the delegates, we've got to pull together. Because Donald Trump is the end of the G.O.P. And I'm fine with that, quite honestly. But what are you going to replace it with? He is the end of the G.O.P. And he is the end, I believe, of the republic as we know it.

So where do we go from here? Unity is where we go. Unity. And there's a lot of people that are part of the -- the Trump coalition that don't want to be part of the Trump coalition. There will always be -- those people who are just mad and nasty, those people, they're always going to be with Donald Trump. But there's a lot of people who are reasonable and don't like standing next to people who are mean and nasty. Those people, let's show them that we can work together and build a better place and a better country and be good and decent and honorable.

Here's my dream team -- and I think this is doable. I think this is doable and absolutely unstoppable.

Ted Cruz as the president. Marco Rubio -- and I think they should announce this and run as this. I think we should begin to demand this. I think this should go all over the internet.

Ted Cruz as president. Marco Rubio as vice president. Remember, Marco Rubio -- the reason why he's still in it and he's not going to give up is because he can't run for his Senate seat. So his Senate seat is over. So he's out. So he's going to keep going. He has an interest. So Ted Cruz as president. Marco Rubio as vice president. They then say, "Our Supreme Court nominee is Mike Lee. Rand Paul is going to be the Secretary of Treasury. And Ben Carson, we're going to back you with everything we can to get you to take Marco Rubio's seat in the Senate."

How is that not a win for absolutely everyone? And that team would be unstoppable. Tweet that. Facebook that. Get that out. Demand that that's where we go.

Everyone wins: Cruz is president. Rubio, vice president. Mike Lee as our Supreme Court justice. Rand Paul as Treasury Secretary. And Ben Carson as the new Florida senator. Everyone wins. And we'll stomp in November.

Glenn Beck: One TERRIFYING thing is clear no matter who caused the Nord Stream pipeline leaks

Evidence strongly suggests that the Nord Stream pipeline leaks were the result of sabotage, and U.S. and European officials have been working to discover who could be behind the explosions that damaged the natural gas pipelines running from Russia to Germany under the Baltic Sea.

Was it Russia? Ukraine? Germany? But no matter who carried this out, it has put the entire world in grave danger, because if this is indeed an attack, it means that non-military key infrastructure outside Ukraine is now on the "target menu," warned Glenn Beck on the radio program.

"It is so important for you to understand, this is now a non-military key infrastructure that has been destroyed," Glenn explained. "If Russia thinks we did it, they've already said, 'Nukes are now on the table.' That gives us a green light to use nukes," he added.

"This is non-military key infrastructure outside of the borders of Ukraine. To date, as far as we know, combat targets were either in Ukraine, or were military targets hit inside of Russia by Ukrainian Air Force or special forces. But the target menu now includes key civilian infrastructure: electricity, water utilities, energy production. That makes Russia more dangerous than ever. And that would be true no matter who carried out the attack," Glenn stated.

Now, the Russians are saying the Unted States did it, and the U.S. is saying it was Russia. But no matter who carried out the attack, "We are facing a Cuban Missile Crisis," said Glenn.

"This could end up being the biggest story of our lifetime and ... if it isn't played calmly by every side, this could be World War III," he continued. "Russia has already said that this gives them the right to use nuclear weapons as soon as they find out for sure who did it. That would be catastrophic, absolutely catastrophic."

Pain IS the point: How to survive Biden’s 'HELL' economy

The White House can try to spin inflation all day long (and it's trying very hard). But you feel the effects of President Joe Biden’s disastrous leadership every time you go to the grocery store or fill up your car. The American economy is on the brink of disaster after less than two years of a Democrat-controlled Congress and White House. And they’ve got plenty more destruction in the works.

The bottom line is they WANT you to get used to a lower living standard. So, what do you do? How do you prepare? What will food and fuel cost in the months ahead? What would the next Great Depression look like? How are you going to feel the effects of ESG and the Left’s war on oil?

On Wednesday night's "Glenn TV," Glenn Beck brings in a panel of economic experts to answer those questions. He’s joined by Carol Roth, former Wall Street investment banker and author of “The War on Small Business,” and Jim Iuorio, a small business owner, stockbroker, and managing director of TJM Institutional Services. While both forecast the worst-case scenario for average Americans, they also offer a glimmer of hope to get us out of this mess.

FBI sends up to 20 agents with 'guns drawn' to arrest pro-life dad in front of family — denies abuse of power​

Image source: Video screenshot

The FBI recently sent more than a dozen armed agents to the home of well-known pro-life activist Mark Houck to arrest him for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances or FACE Act. Now the father of seven faces up to 11 years in prison over claims that he blocked a man from entering an abortion clinic and shoved him when he wouldn't stop verbally harassing Mark's 12-year-old son. Now, if that doesn't sound insane enough, this all happened after local authorities dropped the case. So, what's the full story here?

Attorney Peter Breen joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Tuesday to tell the family's side of the story, including how the case was already "won" three years ago, and how, after receiving a target letter from the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Mark's legal team agreed to cooperate fully, only to hear nothing back until the day the FBI showed up on Mark's doorstep.

Breen also explained how the FBI has tried to downplay "abuse of power" claims, accusing Mark's wife of making "inaccurate claims" about the terrifying experience.

"Ryan-Marie, who is Mark's wife, she thought she saw 25 [FBI agents.] The FBI came back and said it wasn't 25, it was no more than 15 or 20 heavily armed federal agents. And she had called them a 'SWAT team' because she's a lay person. I don't know the difference between a SWAT team and a bunch of heavily armed, armored, and shield-bearing federal agents," Breen said.

According to Fox News, a senior FBI source said:

There may have been 15-20 agents at the scene, but denied 25 were there. The agents who came to the door had guns out and at the ready, according to this FBI source, but the guns were never pointed at Houck or his family and were lowered or holstered as soon as Houck was taken into custody. Houck was handcuffed with a belly chain.

"So, yeah, they had guns drawn and pointed at Mark in front of his wife and their children. And that whole show of force was done against a man who was not a drug lord, not a mafia boss, but instead, a law-abiding pillar of the community whose attorney said, 'we'll bring him in if you decide to charge, even though you have no case.'"

Breen went on to assert that he believes Congress "needs to" hold Attorney General Merrick Garland accountable for the arrest. "I can't imagine that those 20 federal agents were excited about being called out to a peaceful man's home, guns drawn," he said.

In the video clip below, Breen goes on the explain what he believes should happen next, and why Houck's arrest "should frighten all of us." Can't watch? Download the podcast here.

Gavin McInnes admits arrest hoax was a prank gone DISASTROUSLY wrong: 'This was a $10,000 joke'

Image source: Video screenshot

Gavin McInnes broke the internet last month when his live show was interrupted, and it appeared that he was arrested. He broke the internet again a few weeks later when he admitted that the arrest was staged as part of what was intended to be an elaborate prank.

McInnes joined Glenn Beck on "Glenn TV" to explain the real reason behind his disastrous prank.

"This was a $10,000 joke. I lost 100 subscribers because of it, but I was going away to Paris for a week because my daughter is going to college and I thought let's make it interesting," McInnes said of his decision to fake an on-air arrest in the middle of his live "Get Off My Lawn" podcast on August 25.

"There was a method to the madness, with the prank ... my point was, first of all, this is happening to people in real-time. Tim Poole has been swatted a million times," he explained to Glenn. "The thought police are in full effect. I also wanted to lampoon the media's bloodlust for us suffering."

Glenn played a clip of the now-infamous hoax while McInnes explained what was really going on behind the scenes, including how his very drunk friend "Unrelia-Bill" was supposed to act the part of the arresting officer but ended up being much too intoxicated (at "2 pm") to speak even a few lines, and how smugly gleeful the "far left" was when they thought McInnes had actually been arrested.
