Biden on FDR's experience and management of the 1929 crash


(Hoover was President in 1929 and the speech he's referring to wasn't on television as it had yet to be released to consumers)

GLENN: Dan, can you take me to the take me to Joe Biden, will you? Here's the latest Joe Biden that's a personal favorite of mine.

BIDEN: Part of what a leader does is to instill confidence, is demonstrate that he or she knows what they're talking about and communicates to people.

GLENN: Stop, stop, stop, stop. Hang on just a sec. Stu, I want can we make a list here? Because my pen just went dry.

STU: We want to know what his job is?

GLENN: I want to know what his job is. Part of what a leader does, what was it, Dan?

BIDEN: Part of what a leader does is to instill confidence.

GLENN: Okay, stop. Instills confidence.

BIDEN: Is to instill confidence and demonstrate that he or she knows what they're talking about.

GLENN: Stop, stop. That he or she knows what he or she is talking about.

BIDEN: And communicates to people. If you listen to me and follow what I'm suggesting we can

GLENN: Stop, stop, stop. If you listen and then can convince people, and can convince people hang on. This is starting to sound like Jesus I'm sorry Obama.

(Angel music).

GLENN: If he could just convince me that if we just listen to him and follow him, he can fix this problem. That's great.

STU: I think convincing people you can fix the problem starts with really understanding how we got there, what the history is.

GLENN: You've got to know these things. That was covered in point number two, wasn't it?

STU: Demonstrate that you know what you're talking about, instill confidence.

GLENN: There's more. Go ahead. We've learned what he has to do. Okay, good. So

BIDEN: We can fix this. Stock market crash, Franklin Roosevelt got on television and didn't just talk about, you know, the princes of greed. He said, look, here's what happened.

GLENN: Okay, okay, okay. Hang on.

STU: Why are you laughing? He was in the middle of

GLENN: I know, during the stock market crash in '29.

STU: Demonstrate he knows what he's talking about and convincing people he can fix the problem.

GLENN: Right. He didn't just go after the ministers of greed, which is exactly what Roosevelt did. Unfortunately he did it on radio, not television. And a few years after the stock market crash because Hoover was the President! Of course also the inventor of the vacuum cleaner.

STU: So he instilled confidence there.

GLENN: No, he didn't no, uh uh.

STU: You are now confident that he knows

GLENN: No, I

STU: He's imagined other scenarios that could have happened in the Great Depression.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: He's demonstrating he knows what he's talking about. He predicted no, listen. He predicted that the television was coming.

GLENN: But he's already missing the television coverage it's like he didn't know that it was on radio.

STU: The television was coming. He predicted that Roosevelt would be President. And imagine what would have happened and he's convincing people that if Roosevelt were President on TV, that wouldn't be the right thing. Joe Biden is the correct this guy could be a heartbeat away from the presidency any day. I mean

GLENN: Give me some of the other Joe Biden stuff today. Give me some of the other Joe Biden stuff today, will you? Who was the one you know, I just heard today for the first time, and I just love this. I know I read about it and everything else, we talked about it, but I haven't actually heard about it. Do you have the "Come on, Senator, stand up, Senator, go ahead. Give those legs a try." Who was the senator he was talking about? Some state senator, right?

STU: Yeah, I'm not sure of the name, but I can say that he was instilling confidence in him. You should stand up, you should be able to have the confidence to rise.

GLENN: Yeah, he was in a wheelchair.

STU: Right. And then he was demonstrating he knew what he was talking about.

GLENN: No, because he was in a wheelchair. The guy can't stand up.

STU: Right, but he knew that afterwards and corrected it. He convinced people he can fix the problem. He was saying stand up; that would fix his problem. If the guy would have stood up, he would have been able to walk, he wouldn't have needed the wheelchair.

GLENN: He should have known that he was not....

(Savior of the universe music).

GLENN: Only Barack Obama can look at a man in a wheelchair and say, Senator, rise up!

(Savior of the universe music).

GLENN: Only Barack can do that. Instead Joe Biden does this.

BIDEN: I also am told that Chuck Graham, state senator is here. Chuck, stand up, Chuck. Oh, God love you. What am I talking about? I tell you what, you're making everybody else stand up, though, pal. Thank you very, very much.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh, stop! Can you stand up for Chuck? Unless you're in a wheelchair. Oh, dear God, I'm in a nursing home. Oh, boy. I didn't realize I was speaking at the convention of MS. I holy cow, I just thought these were convenient chairs. I'm so sorry. Jeez! Can you imagine if George W. Bush no, no. No. What's the guy that made the JFK movie, got the new one coming out on W? Oh, pinhead, he changes history and everything. Named Nixon? You know who I'm talking about?

STU: Why his name?

GLENN: Because we're smart, we've got other things in our head besides this loser's name. What's his name? Do you know how to use a computer or are you John McCain?

STU: Well, I

GLENN: Is that what it is?

STU: Are you trying to make some sort of a

GLENN: John McCain doesn't he can't use a computer. He doesn't use it. He doesn't like it. He doesn't understand it. He's old. He was watching Woodrow Wilson on TV.

STU: Oliver Stone. That takes so long. I have no brain.

GLENN: That's a good thing. A badge of honor man, Oliver Stone. So can you imagine if Oliver Stone were a conservative and Joe Biden would have said that? Can you imagine what would have can you imagine if Michael Moore were a conservative and he would have said something like this? Play that again. That's just amazing to me. Play these, just these two clips back to back and listen to this guy.

BIDEN: And I also am told that Chuck Graham, state senator is here. Chuck, stand up, Chuck, let everybody see you. Oh, God love you. What am I talking about? I tell you what, you're making everybody else stand up, though, pal. Thank you very, very much. I tell you what, stand up for Chuck.

GLENN: Holy and then this one.

BIDEN: Part of what a leader does is to instill confidence and demonstrate that he or she knows what they're talking about and communicates to people. If you listen to me and follow what I'm suggesting, we can fix this. In the stock market crash Franklin Roosevelt got on television and didn't just talk about, you know, the princes of greed. He said, look, here's what happened.

GLENN: No, he got on and talked about the princes of greed, but it was on radio and it was in 1933 or '34! That's when he did it! It was Hoover. And then, of course, Joe Biden does this.

COURIC: Are you disappointed with the tone of the campaign, the lipstick on the pig stuff and some of the ads? And you guys haven't been completely guilt free making fun of John McCain's inability to use a computer?

BIDEN: I thought that was terrible.

COURIC: Why did you do it then?

BIDEN: I didn't know if we did it. And if I knew we did it, we would have never done it. If Barack you know, I just think that was

GLENN: (Laughing). Stop.

STU: That's the greatest

GLENN: This was the greatest thing. This has made McCain/Feingold worth it. This has made McCain/Feingold worth it. John McCain, this will be the one and only time I thank you for your stupid, stupid bill that requires people to say, "I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message." Thank you, John McCain. Then here's Joe Biden, "I didn't approve that and I don't think Barack Obama approved... apples, this guy has apple juice. Who wants apple juice? What is that, a stick burning? I've got to go, bye." I mean, it's unbelievable. And for some reason the press just... it's just Joe being Joe.

STU: We have to see if Joe did his did he do his list of tasks on that one? Did he instill confidence?

GLENN: Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Instill confidence? Yeah, he was instilling confidence. That was wrong.

STU: He confidently said it was terrible.

GLENN: Yeah, it was terrible.

STU: He confidently said his own job was bad.

GLENN: But he didn't approve it. No, no, but he thought it was terrible. He didn't approve it. "I'm Barack Obama and I approved this message."

STU: Look, I don't think Barack approved... would you like a prune? I don't think he approved

GLENN: That was a Barack Obama impersonator.

STU: Yeah, totally.

GLENN: "I'm Barack Obama and I'm an impersonator of this message."

STU: Did he demonstrate that he knew what he was talking about. If he didn't know what he was talking about, he would have said, "I don't think Barack Obama approved of that message." But he knows that he did. He demonstrated by stopping three quarters of the way through the sentence.

GLENN: You could just see. It was like, you know, the train lights. You know how the gates come down and you're like, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing. You know, the gates come down and the big red lights. You know that's what was going on in his head. Play that audio again. Just imagine the train coming. Go ahead.

BIDEN: I thought that was terrible.

COURIC: Why did you do it then?

BIDEN: I didn't know we did it and if I knew we did it, I would have never done it and I don't think Barack I just think

GLENN: Go back. I thought she said it, I thought she came in. (Laughing). "No, I didn't do it."

STU: He gets all the way to the name before he figures out he needs to stop.

GLENN: It's like, holy cow, there's a train. And then here's the train. Do it again. Do it again.

(Audio playing).

GLENN: Stop. Stop. Katie, you're just like, oh, good God, it's a freight train and it looks just like Katie Couric.

STU: Katie Couric does a great job there because she just says, well, why did you do it then? (Laughing).

GLENN: (Laughing). I can't believe it. In one break I said thanks to John McCain for the McCain/Feingold ad, and Katie Couric was great, wasn't she?

STU: Wait, wait. The third Joe Biden requirement of his job, we have to see if he's done that. Convince people he can fix the problem.

GLENN: Yes. Yes, I'm convinced. He shut his mouth halfway through.

STU: He's always doing his job, this guy.

Did Biden TRADE these 3 things for CHINESE money while classified docs were missing?

At the same time President Biden's misplaced classified documents were sitting in his house, garage, and office at the Penn Biden Center, a whole lot of Chinese money was flowing around him. Is this just a coincidence, or did the Chinese get anything in return? Investigative journalist John Solomon joins to break down what was going on here ...

Here are 5 RIDICULOUS moments from the Davos summit

Glenn has been warning about the dangers of the World Economic Forum and The Great Reset, which is the WEF's goal to utilize the crises like the COVID pandemic to create a leftist Utopia. Now, these goals continue to take shape at the World Economic Forum summit in Davos. Here are five ridiculous moments from this year's summit that shed light on their ultimate vision Glenn has been warning about.

1. Ex-CNN host Brian Stelter hosts the WEF panel on "disinformation," calling for the criminalization of "hate speech" in the U.S.

The former host of Reliable Sources was fired from CNN in 2022 for raking in the network's worst ratings since 2019. CNN's CEO at the time, Chris Licht, accused Stelter of "drawing ire from conservatives" for misrepresenting the facts and propagating false narratives to demonize conservatives. Licht fired Stelter because he was a liability to CNN's attempt to "re-brand" itself as a "reliable" news source.

You would think the World Economic Forum could have found a more credible host for its "disinformation," than Brian Stelter, and it comes with little surprise Stelter's panel called for the continued censorship of conservatives.

Stelter asked his panel, "How does this discussion of disinformation relate to everything else happening today in Davos?"

Vice-President of the European Commission Vera Jourová answered "illegal hate speech" from right-wing extremists, and then called for the criminalization of hate speech in the U.S., asserting, "I think that we have a strong reason why we have this in the criminal law" within the EU.

As former Trump advisor Stephen Miller pointed out, Stelter's refusal to further challenge Jourová's call for censorship is indicative of his failed career as a journalist.

2. Al Gore warns of "rain bombs," "boiling oceans," and "xenophobia" as a result of climate change.

Gore's speech "speaks" for itself...

After asserting that we're creating an "open sewer" in the troposphere, Gore exclaimed:

That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees!

Speaking of refugees, Gore blamed the mass migrations of people on... you guessed it... climate change! Of course this leads to "xenophobia" and "fascism," so if we hate "xenophobia" and "fascism," we need to stop climate change IMMEDIATELY. Plus the rain bombs...

Does this sound reminiscent of the "Man-Bear-Pig?"

3. Siemens AG Chairman Jim Hagemann urges for 1 million people to NOT eat meat—predicting a "meatless future."

It wouldn't be a World Economic Forum summit if bugs didn't take center stage. Siemens AG Chairman Jim Hagemann said he was inspired by his 24-year-old daughter to stop eating meat to fight climate change and urged one million people to stop eating meat to balance out jet emissions—like the jets his fellow attendees used to travel to the conference?

Here's what he said:

If a billion people stop eating meat, I tell you, it has a big impact. Not only does it have a big impact on the current food system, but it will also inspire innovation of food systems."

Of course, finding "alternative sources of protein" means... you guessed it... BUGS. The EU is already cutting down on cattle farms and promoting the building of insect farms to initiate this "protein transition."

4. John Kerry calls Davos attendees a "select group" with an "almost extraterrestrial" plan to save the planet.

Kerry's opening speech at Davos shows the type of elitism the attendees believe about themselves. They are the "special ones" who can gather at a Swiss resort town to discuss how to "save the planet" and the "little people" who are too ignorant to have a say in the matter. His words speak for themselves:

When you start to think about it, it's pretty extraordinary that we — select group of human beings because of whatever touched us at some point in our lives — are able to sit in a room and come together and actually talk about saving the planet [...] I mean, it's so almost extraterrestrial to think about saving the planet [...] f you say that to most people, most people think you're just a crazy, tree-hugging, lefty liberal, you know, do-gooder, or whatever, and there's no relationship. But really, that's where we are.

Well, not everyone was amused...

Businessman and conservative Tim Acheson called Kerry’s words, "Liberal delusions of grandeur." Jordan Peterson also tweeted, "Who are you going to sacrifice to save the planet, @JohnKerry -- and do you think and how will you ensure that they have any say in the matter?"

5. Davos attendees traveled on more than 1,000 private jets to the conference.

Greenspace, an environmentalist research group, estimates the total emissions used by Davos attendees on their private jets while traveling to the conference is equivalent to "about 350,000 average cars."

Greenspace also found that 53 percent of all private jet trips were short-haul flights of less than 470 nautical miles that "could have easily been train trips." This comes amid the EU's push to ban short-distance flights and opt for train travel instead, which many continue to point out.

Closing thoughts

What once sounded like conspiracy theories are now taking shape amongst the global elites at Davos. As Glenn continues to shed light on the dangers of the World Economic Forum, here's how YOU can fight back against their goals that threaten our freedoms and democracy.

Klaus Schwab is ONE CAT away from becoming a James Bond villain

In honor of the World Economic Forum summit in Davos, we would like to resurrect this gem from Glenn's Instagram archive. If "the Great Reset" doesn't work out, Schwab should consider reaching out to the Bond franchise for a Plan-B career.

PROOF the World Economic Forum wants you eating... BUGS!

EasyBuy4u, PeopleImages, TeoLazarev | Getty Images

As the World Economic Forum continues to meet in Davos about building a more "sustainable" future, Glenn's warning on a seemingly outlandish sustainability goal is becoming reality: eating bugs!

In its 2023 Global Risks Report, the World Economic Forum called for the "transition to net-zero, nature-positive food" to fight "food insecurity." In other words, the WEF imagines a future with minimal meat and maximum "zero-emissions food"—like bugs—as consumers' main source of protein. This is a part of "the Great Reset," the agenda proposed by the World Economic Forum in 2020, urging leaders to take advantage of the COVID-19 crisis to restructure the "world order" to bring about a leftist Utopia.

Major news outlets like the BBC have promoted insect farms as a sustainable food source to "reduce the reliance on everyday meat eating."

So what's the big concern about eating bugs? As the video points out, many cultures throughout the world have been eating insects for centuries—many consider them a delicacy! The issue with the WEF's push for insects isn't merely the option to eat bugs. If someone wants to munch on some grasshoppers, nothing is stopping them! The major concern is the way in which the WEF wants to mandate insect consumption, and, consequentially, destroy the beef industry.

According to the same 2023 Risk Report, the WEF calls for "radical policy measures" to bring about the food transition to zero-net-emissions food, like insects. This means imposing such a burden on the dairy and cattle industries that it renders them impossible to function, paving the way for a new insect industry.

In the Netherlands, the EU's largest food exporter, the government is forcing the farmers to sell their land to the state unless they reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilizer used. However, without nitrogen fertilizer, it is nearly impossible for the farmers to produce enough food to feed the nation, not to mention turn a profit. Moreover, without nitrogen fertilizer, it will be impossible for cattle farmers to produce enough food to feed their cows. This is an impossible burden for farmers to bear, and they often capitulate and sell their land to the government, paving the way for a burgeoning insect industry. Is it any coincidence the EU is pushing for insects as a means of "food sufficiency" and combatting climate change?

If you think eating insects is a novel issue from across the pond, think again. There is a growing push for a "beef tax" in the U.S. to disincentivize beef consumption and incentivize alternative "sustainable" protein sources...like bugs. According to 2021, data, U.S. beef is a 79-billion-dollar-per-year industry, employing million across the U.S.'s 700,000 cattle farms. These stats don't even include the U.S.'s dairy industry. If the global environmentalists have their way, this major U.S. industry will be wiped out, wreaking havoc on our economy. Yet this government control over the "everyday person's" consumption is all too tantalizing.

As the World Economic Forum convenes in Davos to discuss how to achieve their "sustainable utopia," Glenn continues to advocate for the free market and the ability to choose our own consumer goods, rather than giving global elites the power to consolidate and mandate their "approved goods" for widespread consumption. Though consuming insects may seem like an outlandish idea that has no impact on our daily lives, it is a part of a larger movement to control our way of life to achieve a more sustainable future, threatening both our economy and our basic freedoms.
