Glenn's Show Prep

Finally! Witches Cast Spell to Stop Trump From Harming Rocks, Among Other Things

June 26, 2017
Staff

WRITER

On Wednesday, Witchiepoos came out in force with the waning crescent moon to cast spells to “bind” President Trump “and all those who abet him.”

It sounds like something that shouldn't be taken seriously, but the situation hit Glenn like a ton of bricks.

"They were instructed to call on spirits and demons of the infernal realms to bind Trump so that his malignant works may fail utterly. They want to prevent him from harming humans, trees, animals, and, quote, rocks from harm. Now, I'm glad somebody has finally brought this up . . . the amount of rocks that this administration has harmed is untold," Glenn said.

Co-host Pat Gray estimated that it could be well into the millions.

"It's an untold sad, sad tale of how some rocks are pried from their family in what we haphazardly have just named gravel pits, and their family members are ripped and sent to other driveways, sometimes halfway around the country, for those rock families never to be united again," Glenn revealed.

Who is responsible for this rock travesty? Trump, Donald J. Trump, the president of the United States of America, according to the witches.

"How much gravel has he used in his life? The harm of the rock families must stop, must stop. Sometimes, he grinds stones into smaller stones. Can you imagine if somebody took your children and ground them up into smaller children? Would you be happy?" Glenn asked.

"I don't know if rocks have children or families," Pat cautioned.

"Please, Pat, stop with the denial," Glenn said.

In addition to rocks, the witches also want to prevent Trump from harming humans, trees and animals, as well as condemn those who enable Trump's wickedness. So . . . beware.

GLENN: Should we go into the witches that are now casting spells on Donald Trump?

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Which, I don't know where to go with this story.

PAT: On Donald and all those who abet him. So it's not just Donald Trump.

GLENN: So here it is: Large Facebook group composed of self-described witches cast spells to bind President Trump and all those who abet him. On Wednesday -- you know what, that is a word I haven't really seen around since maybe 1626.

(chuckling)

On Wednesday, a large Facebook group composed of the self-described witches began to cast the spells. The group, which calls itself Bind Trump has more than 2,000 members. Although it's unclear exactly how many participated in the event, on the night of the alleged binding ceremony, dozens posted pictures and videos of their anti-Trump rituals.

We have got to see the videos.

JEFFY: They've been doing it since March.

GLENN: Can you get us the audio of that? And, Stu, could you look into a -- a -- perhaps a warlock. Wasn't Bill Rogers -- do you guys remember Bill Rogers?

STU: Oh, yeah.

GLENN: He used to be on the show a long time ago, because I believe he was some sort of a warlock, to unbind the spells tomorrow.

STU: That's an interesting -- I don't know.

JEFFY: According to the witches too, a binding spell is different than a curse or a hex. So...

GLENN: Well, you would know, Jeffy. What -- what is a binding --

JEFFY: I don't quite know the difference. I'm just saying that's what the witches have said.

GLENN: Okay. So here's -- the witches' event was scheduled to correspond with the waning crescent moon, and the group's members used an organized liturgy to wish evil on Trump's agenda. The participants were instructed to gather a number of components to aid them in their efforts, including a tarot card reader, an unflattering picture of Donald Trump. I don't know why -- why can't you use a nice picture of Donald Trump? Is the queen of all witches up in heaven going -- sorry. I don't mean to insult witches. I don't know what your practice is exactly. But are they like, "No. It's got to be an unflattering picture. This one -- this one makes me feel good." They're supposed to have candles, a small bowl of water, an ashtray, or a dish of sand, and a feather.

(chuckling)

STU: Okay.

GLENN: Now, it -- it sounds like something you shouldn't take seriously. But have I ever struck you as the guy that doesn't take stuff like this seriously? No.

PAT: No.

GLENN: No. No. They were instructed to call on spirits and demons of the infernal realms to bind Trump so that his malignant works may fail utterly. They want to prevent him from harming humans, trees, animals, and, quote, rocks from harm.

Now, I'm glad somebody has finally brought this up. But the amount of rocks that this administration has harmed is --

PAT: It's well into the millions already. Millions of rocks have been armed.

GLENN: It's untold. And it's an untold sad, sad tale of how some rocks are pried from their family in -- in what we haphazardly have just named gravel pits, and their family members are ripped and sent to other driveways, sometimes halfway around the country, for those rock families never to be united again. And who is responsible for this?

PAT: Donald Trump.

GLENN: He's a builder.

PAT: Donald Trump.

GLENN: How much gravel has he used in his life? The arm of the rock families must stop. Must stop. Sometimes, he grinds stones into smaller stones.

PAT: It's happened, yeah. It's happened.

GLENN: Can you imagine if somebody took your children and ground them up into smaller children? Would you be happy?

PAT: No, I wouldn't.

GLENN: If they took your family and ground your family up --

PAT: I don't know if rocks have children or families.

GLENN: Please, Pat. Stop with the denial. And they took and ground your children up and sprinkled them in some driveway. Your kids were what the Prius tires were driving on here in California.

PAT: I would not like it.

GLENN: No. No. You wouldn't be happy. The witches also condemn those who enable Trump's wickedness. They need to have their towers of vanity struck down.

That's the only thing -- that's the only thing that makes sense to me is strike down the towers of vanity.

Afterward, the witches were instructed, ground yourself by having a good hearty laugh. Jump up and down. Clap your hands. Stomp your feet. Have a bite to eat. Grounding is very important. Don't neglect it. And, remember, he hates people laughing at him.

PAT: According to Daniel Asor, who is a rabbi in Israel, he said people should not take these kinds of ceremonies lightly. He said, witchcraft or its real name Satanism is explicitly a power struggle, which is why it's so readily dragged into politics. Satanism, in its essence, pits the adversary against God.

JEFFY: Even if you're a good witch?

GLENN: There are no good witches. Glenda -- did you see Wicked? Glenda was not a good witch. That is a true live documentary that is happening in New York of all places. They've decided to expose the truth about that so-called good witch.

STU: What about Bewitched? Seems like a generally good witch.

GLENN: And what happened to her?

STU: I don't know.

GLENN: Dead.

STU: Is she?

GLENN: Yeah. What happened to her husband? Her first husband that we all know suddenly changed features? All of a sudden, Dagwood or Darewood or whatever his name was -- remember? All of a sudden, he was -- he looked one way, and then we were all supposed to notice. She hadn't fundamentally changed him. She killed him and replaced him. And the spell didn't work on me. I knew he was a different guy.

STU: Wow, you really do go deep. These are deep dives.

GLENN: Like I said, not a lot of people are giving you this analysis on the witch thing. I actually agree with the rabbi. I don't take this lightly at all. I mean, I don't know how many of the 2,000 people are serious. This is kind of like the -- what is it? The secret grove -- what is that place called in California?

STU: Bohemian Grove.

GLENN: Oh, yeah, Bohemian Grove. The Bohemian Grove. I don't think -- you know, I wrote about it in my book, The Eye of Moloch. And it's a fiction novel. Better than Brad Thor's, I think, quite honestly. In fact, I could do an interview about that now if you would like.

But I wrote about it in my book the Eye of Moloch. And I explained how I believe some of the stuff works. But I did it in a -- you know, a fiction sort of setting.

And, you know, the Bohemian Grove does exist. And all of these people do come from all over the world. All these high leaders. And they do apparently do this old owl thing, where they set it on fire or set a little boat on fire with that people in it. No actual little people were harmed.

And there's these little figures that they put in it. And then they, I don't know, set them on fire and throw them in the belly of the owl or something weird. I don't think anybody there takes that seriously. Maybe a couple of people. There might be, I don't know, 1,000 people there. Maybe two, really understand that that's an ancient ritual and take it seriously.

The rest are just having a party. And they're just, oh, this is funny. Oh, there's nothing to this. They don't have any intention. They don't even know what it means. They don't care. But they are performing an ancient ritual. And the same I believe with the witches.

You know, I'm not a witch hunter. I don't. You know, I'm sure there are good witches. I'm sure there are people that are just witches. They just care about the environment. And whatever witches do. They don't fly on broomsticks or any of that nonsense.

But I do believe things like this, you are performing ancient pagan rituals that I do believe do play into the adversary, do play into darkness, and I don't think we should take these things lightly. Although, I don't think Donald Trump at any point is going to be bound or -- or turn into a newt. But that's just me.

URGENT: FIVE steps to CONTROL AI before it's too late!

MANAURE QUINTERO / Contributor | Getty Images

By now, many of us are familiar with AI and its potential benefits and threats. However, unless you're a tech tycoon, it can feel like you have little influence over the future of artificial intelligence.

For years, Glenn has warned about the dangers of rapidly developing AI technologies that have taken the world by storm.

He acknowledges their significant benefits but emphasizes the need to establish proper boundaries and ethics now, while we still have control. But since most people aren’t Silicon Valley tech leaders making the decisions, how can they help keep AI in check?

Recently, Glenn interviewed Tristan Harris, a tech ethicist deeply concerned about the potential harm of unchecked AI, to discuss its societal implications. Harris highlighted a concerning new piece of legislation proposed by Texas Senator Ted Cruz. This legislation proposes a state-level moratorium on AI regulation, meaning only the federal government could regulate AI. Harris noted that there’s currently no Federal plan for regulating AI. Until the federal government establishes a plan, tech companies would have nearly free rein with their AI. And we all know how slowly the federal government moves.

This is where you come in. Tristan Harris shared with Glenn the top five actions you should urge your representatives to take regarding AI, including opposing the moratorium until a concrete plan is in place. Now is your chance to influence the future of AI. Contact your senator and congressman today and share these five crucial steps they must take to keep AI in check:

Ban engagement-optimized AI companions for kids

Create legislation that will prevent AI from being designed to maximize addiction, sexualization, flattery, and attachment disorders, and to protect young people’s mental health and ability to form real-life friendships.

Establish basic liability laws

Companies need to be held accountable when their products cause real-world harm.

Pass increased whistleblower protections

Protect concerned technologists working inside the AI labs from facing untenable pressures and threats that prevent them from warning the public when the AI rollout is unsafe or crosses dangerous red lines.

Prevent AI from having legal rights

Enact laws so AIs don’t have protected speech or have their own bank accounts, making sure our legal system works for human interests over AI interests.

Oppose the state moratorium on AI 

Call your congressman or Senator Cruz’s office, and demand they oppose the state moratorium on AI without a plan for how we will set guardrails for this technology.

Glenn: Only Trump dared to deliver on decades of empty promises

The Islamic regime has been killing Americans since 1979. Now Trump’s response proves we’re no longer playing defense — we’re finally hitting back.

The United States has taken direct military action against Iran’s nuclear program. Whatever you think of the strike, it’s over. It’s happened. And now, we have to predict what happens next. I want to help you understand the gravity of this situation: what happened, what it means, and what might come next. To that end, we need to begin with a little history.

Since 1979, Iran has been at war with us — even if we refused to call it that.

We are either on the verge of a remarkable strategic victory or a devastating global escalation. Time will tell.

It began with the hostage crisis, when 66 Americans were seized and 52 were held for over a year by the radical Islamic regime. Four years later, 17 more Americans were murdered in the U.S. Embassy bombing in Beirut, followed by 241 Marines in the Beirut barracks bombing.

Then came the Khobar Towers bombing in 1996, which killed 19 more U.S. airmen. Iran had its fingerprints all over it.

In Iraq and Afghanistan, Iranian-backed proxies killed hundreds of American soldiers. From 2001 to 2020 in Afghanistan and 2003 to 2011 in Iraq, Iran supplied IEDs and tactical support.

The Iranians have plotted assassinations and kidnappings on U.S. soil — in 2011, 2021, and again in 2024 — and yet we’ve never really responded.

The precedent for U.S. retaliation has always been present, but no president has chosen to pull the trigger until this past weekend. President Donald Trump struck decisively. And what our military pulled off this weekend was nothing short of extraordinary.

Operation Midnight Hammer

The strike was reportedly called Operation Midnight Hammer. It involved as many as 175 U.S. aircraft, including 12 B-2 stealth bombers — out of just 19 in our entire arsenal. Those bombers are among the most complex machines in the world, and they were kept mission-ready by some of the finest mechanics on the planet.

To throw off Iranian radar and intelligence, some bombers flew west toward Guam — classic misdirection. The rest flew east, toward the real targets.

As the B-2s approached Iranian airspace, U.S. submarines launched dozens of Tomahawk missiles at Iran’s fortified nuclear facilities. Minutes later, the bombers dropped 14 MOPs — massive ordnance penetrators — each designed to drill deep into the earth and destroy underground bunkers. These bombs are the size of an F-16 and cost millions of dollars apiece. They are so accurate, I’ve been told they can hit the top of a soda can from 15,000 feet.

They were built for this mission — and we’ve been rehearsing this run for 15 years.

If the satellite imagery is accurate — and if what my sources tell me is true — the targeted nuclear sites were utterly destroyed. We’ll likely rely on the Israelis to confirm that on the ground.

This was a master class in strategy, execution, and deterrence. And it proved that only the United States could carry out a strike like this. I am very proud of our military, what we are capable of doing, and what we can accomplish.

What comes next

We don’t yet know how Iran will respond, but many of the possibilities are troubling. The Iranians could target U.S. forces across the Middle East. On Monday, Tehran launched 20 missiles at U.S. bases in Qatar, Syria, and Kuwait, to no effect. God forbid, they could also unleash Hezbollah or other terrorist proxies to strike here at home — and they just might.

Iran has also threatened to shut down the Strait of Hormuz — the artery through which nearly a fifth of the world’s oil flows. On Sunday, Iran’s parliament voted to begin the process. If the Supreme Council and the ayatollah give the go-ahead, we could see oil prices spike to $150 or even $200 a barrel.

That would be catastrophic.

The 2008 financial collapse was pushed over the edge when oil hit $130. Western economies — including ours — simply cannot sustain oil above $120 for long. If this conflict escalates and the Strait is closed, the global economy could unravel.

The strike also raises questions about regime stability. Will it spark an uprising, or will the Islamic regime respond with a brutal crackdown on dissidents?

Early signs aren’t hopeful. Reports suggest hundreds of arrests over the weekend and at least one dissident executed on charges of spying for Israel. The regime’s infamous morality police, the Gasht-e Ershad, are back on the streets. Every phone, every vehicle — monitored. The U.S. embassy in Qatar issued a shelter-in-place warning for Americans.

Russia and China both condemned the strike. On Monday, a senior Iranian official flew to Moscow to meet with Vladimir Putin. That meeting should alarm anyone paying attention. Their alliance continues to deepen — and that’s a serious concern.

Now we pray

We are either on the verge of a remarkable strategic victory or a devastating global escalation. Time will tell. But either way, President Trump didn’t start this. He inherited it — and he took decisive action.

The difference is, he did what they all said they would do. He didn’t send pallets of cash in the dead of night. He didn’t sign another failed treaty.

He acted. Now, we pray. For peace, for wisdom, and for the strength to meet whatever comes next.

Globalize the Intifada? Why Mamdani’s plan spells DOOM for America

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

If New Yorkers hand City Hall to Zohran Mamdani, they’re not voting for change. They’re opening the door to an alliance of socialism, Islamism, and chaos.

It only took 25 years for New York City to go from the resilient, flag-waving pride following the 9/11 attacks to a political fever dream. To quote Michael Malice, “I'm old enough to remember when New Yorkers endured 9/11 instead of voting for it.”

Malice is talking about Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist assemblyman from Queens now eyeing the mayor’s office. Mamdani, a 33-year-old state representative emerging from relative political obscurity, is now receiving substantial funding for his mayoral campaign from the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

CAIR has a long and concerning history, including being born out of the Muslim Brotherhood and named an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror funding case. Why would the group have dropped $100,000 into a PAC backing Mamdani’s campaign?

Mamdani blends political Islam with Marxist economics — two ideologies that have left tens of millions dead in the 20th century alone.

Perhaps CAIR has a vested interest in Mamdani’s call to “globalize the intifada.” That’s not a call for peaceful protest. Intifada refers to historic uprisings of Muslims against what they call the “Israeli occupation of Palestine.” Suicide bombings and street violence are part of the playbook. So when Mamdani says he wants to “globalize” that, who exactly is the enemy in this global scenario? Because it sure sounds like he's saying America is the new Israel, and anyone who supports Western democracy is the new Zionist.

Mamdani tried to clean up his language by citing the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, which once used “intifada” in an Arabic-language article to describe the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. So now he’s comparing Palestinians to Jewish victims of the Nazis? If that doesn’t twist your stomach into knots, you’re not paying attention.

If you’re “globalizing” an intifada, and positioning Israel — and now America — as the Nazis, that’s not a cry for human rights. That’s a call for chaos and violence.

Rising Islamism

But hey, this is New York. Faculty members at Columbia University — where Mamdani’s own father once worked — signed a letter defending students who supported Hamas after October 7. They also contributed to Mamdani’s mayoral campaign. And his father? He blamed Ronald Reagan and the religious right for inspiring Islamic terrorism, as if the roots of 9/11 grew in Washington, not the caves of Tora Bora.

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

This isn’t about Islam as a faith. We should distinguish between Islam and Islamism. Islam is a religion followed peacefully by millions. Islamism is something entirely different — an ideology that seeks to merge mosque and state, impose Sharia law, and destroy secular liberal democracies from within. Islamism isn’t about prayer and fasting. It’s about power.

Criticizing Islamism is not Islamophobia. It is not an attack on peaceful Muslims. In fact, Muslims are often its first victims.

Islamism is misogynistic, theocratic, violent, and supremacist. It’s hostile to free speech, religious pluralism, gay rights, secularism — even to moderate Muslims. Yet somehow, the progressive left — the same left that claims to fight for feminism, LGBTQ rights, and free expression — finds itself defending candidates like Mamdani. You can’t make this stuff up.

Blending the worst ideologies

And if that weren’t enough, Mamdani also identifies as a Democratic Socialist. He blends political Islam with Marxist economics — two ideologies that have left tens of millions dead in the 20th century alone. But don’t worry, New York. I’m sure this time socialism will totally work. Just like it always didn’t.

If you’re a business owner, a parent, a person who’s saved anything, or just someone who values sanity: Get out. I’m serious. If Mamdani becomes mayor, as seems likely, then New York City will become a case study in what happens when you marry ideological extremism with political power. And it won’t be pretty.

This is about more than one mayoral race. It’s about the future of Western liberalism. It’s about drawing a bright line between faith and fanaticism, between healthy pluralism and authoritarian dogma.

Call out radicalism

We must call out political Islam the same way we call out white nationalism or any other supremacist ideology. When someone chants “globalize the intifada,” that should send a chill down your spine — whether you’re Jewish, Christian, Muslim, atheist, or anything in between.

The left may try to shame you into silence with words like “Islamophobia,” but the record is worn out. The grooves are shallow. The American people see what’s happening. And we’re not buying it.

Could China OWN our National Parks?

Jonathan Newton / Contributor | Getty Images

The left’s idea of stewardship involves bulldozing bison and barring access. Lee’s vision puts conservation back in the hands of the people.

The media wants you to believe that Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) is trying to bulldoze Yellowstone and turn national parks into strip malls — that he’s calling for a reckless fire sale of America’s natural beauty to line developers’ pockets. That narrative is dishonest. It’s fearmongering, and, by the way, it’s wrong.

Here’s what’s really happening.

Private stewardship works. It’s local. It’s accountable. It’s incentivized.

The federal government currently owns 640 million acres of land — nearly 28% of all land in the United States. To put that into perspective, that’s more territory than France, Germany, Poland, and the United Kingdom combined.

Most of this land is west of the Mississippi River. That’s not a coincidence. In the American West, federal ownership isn’t just a bureaucratic technicality — it’s a stranglehold. States are suffocated. Locals are treated as tenants. Opportunities are choked off.

Meanwhile, people living east of the Mississippi — in places like Kentucky, Georgia, or Pennsylvania — might not even realize how little land their own states truly control. But the same policies that are plaguing the West could come for them next.

Lee isn’t proposing to auction off Yellowstone or pave over Yosemite. He’s talking about 3 million acres — that’s less than half of 1% of the federal estate. And this land isn’t your family’s favorite hiking trail. It’s remote, hard to access, and often mismanaged.

Failed management

Why was it mismanaged in the first place? Because the federal government is a terrible landlord.

Consider Yellowstone again. It’s home to the last remaining herd of genetically pure American bison — animals that haven’t been crossbred with cattle. Ranchers, myself included, would love the chance to help restore these majestic creatures on private land. But the federal government won’t allow it.

So what do they do when the herd gets too big?

They kill them. Bulldoze them into mass graves. That’s not conservation. That’s bureaucratic malpractice.

And don’t even get me started on bald eagles — majestic symbols of American freedom and a federally protected endangered species, now regularly slaughtered by wind turbines. I have pictures of piles of dead bald eagles. Where’s the outrage?

Biden’s federal land-grab

Some argue that states can’t afford to manage this land themselves. But if the states can’t afford it, how can Washington? We’re $35 trillion in debt. Entitlements are strained, infrastructure is crumbling, and the Bureau of Land Management, Forest Service, and National Park Service are billions of dollars behind in basic maintenance. Roads, firebreaks, and trails are falling apart.

The Biden administration quietly embraced something called the “30 by 30” initiative, a plan to lock up 30% of all U.S. land and water under federal “conservation” by 2030. The real goal is 50% by 2050.

That entails half of the country being taken away from you, controlled not by the people who live there but by technocrats in D.C.

You think that won’t affect your ability to hunt, fish, graze cattle, or cut timber? Think again. It won’t be conservatives who stop you from building a cabin, raising cattle, or teaching your grandkids how to shoot a rifle. It’ll be the same radical environmentalists who treat land as sacred — unless it’s your truck, your deer stand, or your back yard.

Land as collateral

Moreover, the U.S. Treasury is considering putting federally owned land on the national balance sheet, listing your parks, forests, and hunting grounds as collateral.

What happens if America defaults on its debt?

David McNew / Stringer | Getty Images

Do you think our creditors won’t come calling? Imagine explaining to your kids that the lake you used to fish in is now under foreign ownership, that the forest you hunted in belongs to China.

This is not hypothetical. This is the logical conclusion of treating land like a piggy bank.

The American way

There’s a better way — and it’s the American way.

Let the people who live near the land steward it. Let ranchers, farmers, sportsmen, and local conservationists do what they’ve done for generations.

Did you know that 75% of America’s wetlands are on private land? Or that the most successful wildlife recoveries — whitetail deer, ducks, wild turkeys — didn’t come from Washington but from partnerships between private landowners and groups like Ducks Unlimited?

Private stewardship works. It’s local. It’s accountable. It’s incentivized. When you break it, you fix it. When you profit from the land, you protect it.

This is not about selling out. It’s about buying in — to freedom, to responsibility, to the principle of constitutional self-governance.

So when you hear the pundits cry foul over 3 million acres of federal land, remember: We don’t need Washington to protect our land. We need Washington to get out of the way.

Because this isn’t just about land. It’s about liberty. And once liberty is lost, it doesn’t come back easily.
