EXPOSED: The DANGEROUS FAA policy that could lead to a DISASTER

The Federal Aviation Administration is out of control and ‪@BlazeTV‬ sent Stu Burguiere of ‪@studoesamerica‬ to investigate. What he found is absolutely shocking! Stu tells Glenn just how far down the woke DEI rabbit hole the FAA has gone. Apparently, even if you ace the merit-based Air Traffic Controller test, it doesn't matter. You have to pass the biographical exam as well, which PENALIZES you if you did WELL in high school science classes. Why? Because according to them, that makes you less likely to be a minority. This puts EVERYONE who rides in an airplane in danger, Glenn says. The whole story is exposed in the newest Blaze Originals documentary, "Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster."

GLENN: So the Blaze original has a new doc out perfect for Thanksgiving. Countdown to the next aviation disaster. Before you go get on a plane and see -- well, maybe after you get back home, maybe.

The FAA is completely out of control. Completely out of control.

And we put Stu in a plane and have him fly over the country, to talk --

STU: Hmm. Yeah.

GLENN: To talk to the FAA and others that are fighting against what they're doing. Because there is a major disaster that is right around the corner because of DEI.

STU: How many near-misses? We document a ton of them.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. Do you show the video of them?

STU: Yeah. The video. The footage of --

GLENN: Planes just -- and also, the planes, they're -- there's video of planes that are landing. This just happened to me!

Oh, my gosh. I completely forgot about this.

STU: Really?

GLENN: This just happened to me. I was landing in maybe Fort Myers. We were handing in Fort Myers. And we were coming down. And we were maybe 100 feet from the runway. You know, from land. All of a sudden, we just rocketed up because they put another plane on that runway, right in front of us.

STU: Oh, my God.

GLENN: And it's like, what are you doing?

STU: And this is happening all over the country.

GLENN: All the time. All the time.

STU: And, you know, there's a bunch of different reasons for it. We go through them in the documentary. Which is available, I guess to stream now. BlazeTV.com.

But what's fascinating about it, you know, there's also the whole aspect of DEI.

And how the people who are -- you know, not only overworked. These air traffic controllers.

They're totally understaffed. Overworked.

Also one of the reasons why this all happened. They just stopped blocking white males from getting these jobs.

GLENN: Right.

STU: We go through that whole process.

People who are suing the government now.

To get this all overturned. They caught them though.

This is not questionable. I'll go through all the evidence in the documentary.

It's shocking.

GLENN: Let me ask you something. Would you want a doctor, who was white, if the best doctor was black? Or Asian?

STU: Of course not.

GLENN: Of course not. No one would.

STU: No.

GLENN: Why would you say, oh, on this airplane, or in the seat that decides when and what runway that airplane lands or its course, why would you not want the best person?

It is a matter of life and death. This DEI stuff is -- it is -- it's death. It should be DIE, because it's all about death. In the end, that's what happens when you have unqualified people, building bridges, flying planes, being your -- your eyes in the sky.

That's what happens!

STU: I talked to a guy in the documentary, who took the merit-based test to become an air traffic controller, and got a 100 on it.

A perfect score. Perfect score.

Then they added another test called -- it was called the biographical exam.

GLENN: Really?

STU: Yes.

And it had really weird questions. We go through the test.

Like, something like -- did you perform well in science, in high school?

And you think, all right. Well, I can kind of see why they would ask that question. Right? If you have a scientific mind. Maybe you have an analytical mind.

GLENN: But I bet you they'll score you lower, if you did better in high school.

STU: You know these people too well, Glenn. If you say, yes, you did well in science and high school, you get penalized. To them -- and I think this is a racist assumption. But to them, you're less likely to be a minority if you did well in science and high school.

So you get punished for doing well, in a -- in a subject that obviously would relate to what you're doing.

GLENN: Can you imagine?

Can you imagine if the question was, did you do well at basketball, when you were in high school?

STU: Right.

GLENN: Are you good at tap dancing? Can you imagine.

STU: At least. It would be a positive attribute. And not a negative one.

But, yes. It would be insane.

GLENN: You would immediately say. You're good at tap dancing. You're in drama. Maybe you're gay.

Tap dancing. I don't know. Stereotypical black, you know, I mean from the 1940s.

STU: Right.

GLENN: But you would go, what does that question mean?

Why is that being asked? You did well in basketball. Why is that question being asked?

STU: Right. Uh-huh.

GLENN: This is just -- that's blatant racism.

This is subtle racism, unless you know you get downgraded by saying, yes. I was good at science.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Because normally, you would be like, yeah.

STU: Of course, this is unfair to let's say a white male who is good at science.

You know who else it's unfair to? A black female who was good at science. Right? They were actually punishing people who had good performance in school.

So that they couldn't get these jobs. So this guy, who went through this entire process, wasted years of his life.

Winds up, not getting the job. And now assuming the government, thankfully to expose. That's how they've exposed all of this. We go through all of this in the documentary.

It is called, what is it? Countdown to the next --

GLENN: To the next disaster.

STU: Aviation disaster. Here it is. Countdown to the next aviation disaster. It's available at BlazeOriginals.com/Stu. If you use the code DEI, you'll save 30 bucks on your annual subscription --

GLENN: And you know what is actually really good about this. This is, this is the end of it! This is hopefully the end of it.

Now, they have done everything they can, to bury DEI deeply into all of our agencies. So you can't cut it out.

But it's got to go!

It absolutely -- we have to be merit-based.

I don't want to drive on a bridge, that didn't have the best engineers.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Okay?

You know why the doors are blowing off Boeing planes, and wheels are coming off?

Because they got rid of all of the engineers. Hello. It's life and death.

Gosh, what are we even thinking?

You know who is really going to be -- are you a computer? Are you AI?

Can you put this little puzzle together. So I know you're not a computer. Okay?

Would you do that, if AI, who is now outperforming doctors on cancer tests.

Would you be like, I don't want my human doctor to not have a job.

So I don't care!

My doctor says, I don't have cancer. AI says I do have cancer.

STU: I'm not going to test. I believe the doctor.

GLENN: Right.

STU: Jobs.

GLENN: Because of jobs.

You would never do that. Your life is at stake.

STU: You want the best results. It seems obvious. And it's obviously central to what made America great in the first place.

GLENN: I know. Yes. Yes.

STU: Right? We cared about merit.

And we are going away from that.

How Glenn Beck's "AI George Washington" went VIRAL and Caused a Leftist MELTDOWN

The Left is erupting over Glenn Beck’s new “George AI,” a completely fenced-off system trained only on Founding-era writings, the Federalist Papers, and the documents that shaped the United States. Critics insist it “sounds like Glenn,” but the AI doesn’t even know who Glenn is—and it doesn’t know any modern figures, media outlets, or political movements. What George AI does know is the worldview of the Founders, and that’s exactly what seems to be triggering its opponents. When the tool is asked about today’s issues, it responds entirely through the lens of 18th-century principles, often echoing truths that modern politics can’t seem to handle. This video breaks down why the backlash is so intense, how the AI works, and what it reveals about the widening ideological gap in America.

GLENN: By the way, the left is losing their ever-loving mind on this George AI thing. There's more. I think it was trending again today. On one of the -- I mean, what -- I don't understand it.

I don't understand it.

STU: They are fired you up, and I don't know -- it's a fascinating thing, and you talked a little bit about this yesterday. I don't know if you're able to run the test. One of the fascinating parts of this.

Not only is it not echoing you.

GLENN: Yep.

STU: It is unaware of who you are.

Which, again, I wish I was.

GLENN: It is fenced off.

A lot of America is saying, right on, brother.

I'm with you, preach.
The -- the -- the way it's built, is it is only built on these specific documents.

It's only their writings.

What influenced them at the time.

The founding documents. The Federalist Papers. Et cetera, et cetera.

They keep saying, say what Glenn Beck should say.

Maybe that should tell you something. It doesn't know who I am.

I said that, and yesterday afternoon. You called me and said, does it really not know you?

We were just having a conversation. Does it really not know you. So I called Jason, who was on a plane.

And said, hey, Jason, can you have access to George AI?

What happened?

JASON: I had really crappy Wi-Fi, first thing I plugged in and said, who is Glenn Beck? And it's -- I won't give all the details for how this all works right now. But basically, what it spit out immediately is I can't even generate content on that, because I don't have data, Glenn.

GLENN: Doesn't know who I am. Has no data on me. So I asked him. Ask, does it know CNN? Does it know Anderson Cooper?

Does it know Donald Trump? Does it know the United Nations? The WEF? Does it know any of these people or any of these organizations? What happened?

VOICE: Same exact answer for every single one of them. It was actually so crazy. Well, does it know who anyone is? So I'll just pick a random person from George's era.

I just picked John Adams. Okay. So who is John Adams? And George AI spit out this amazing.

GLENN: Amazing. You sent it to me.

VOICE: Did you read this first paragraph? This is George AI.

He's saying, let me tell you about the reluctant architect of a republic. He goes, let me take you back the time before powdered wigs were considered cool before independence was in, before anyone had the audacity to name a country after ideals.

There was this man from Massachusetts. He didn't care much for fame. Didn't sparkle in debates and couldn't charm a crowd to save his life.

But give him a quill and a cause, and he would change history.

That's who John was. He goes on.

GLENN: I saw another -- I saw another piece of that, that was just -- it was just all the facts on him.

I mean, I'm reading it like I didn't know that. I didn't know that. I didn't know that.

JASON: So good.

GLENN: George AI, which begins January 5th in its own way.

I mean, we are being very careful with all of our AI. We -- it's going to be beta testing for quite some time.

And you will have access to the -- the -- the products.

As of January 5th. But you won't recognize it a year from now. But we just want to make sure that everything is safe.

And Stu asked me earlier, well, then how do you ask it. If it doesn't know anything. How do you ask it, you know, things like, what about this story? What about this story?

What about this story?

You have to put that story in. You have to say, here's a story, according to, you know, the Founders and the founding documents, what would you guys say is the problem here. Or how would you fix this, if this was happening in your society?

That's -- that's how we could compare things. You could you put in. You know, new laws, bills, anything else.

I put something in the other day. Was it yesterday or day before. Where we were talking about, oh, whether the president could fire somebody from his administration.

And the answer, I said, if there's anything in the Federalist papers, and it came back. Like, there's nothing in the Federalist Papers, per se.

However, Hamilton said, and -- and it went on. And it was like, I don't know what context he said that in, in the Federalist Papers.

I would have to look, thank you for showing all of this.

But it was exactly the answer that we're looking for. It's really a remarkable tool.

And it doesn't know who I am. So all of you lefties that are so freaked out, that it sounds like me, maybe -- maybe -- just maybe, that's something you should ponder.

Because it only has access. This is not a large language model.

This is a -- a fenced off server, that only has founding era you documents. Founding era information.

Ow, things that influence them. Things that came from them.

That's all it can relate to.

So if you're saying, it sounds like Glenn Beck. Maybe you should say, why do I hate Glenn Beck so much? If I claim to love the founding of our country?

If I claim to care about our Constitution.

JASON: One of the ways you can use this as you describe. A recent story of Donald Trump's new national security policy.

And I was running through tests with George. And just seeing what it would think about it.

GLENN: What did it say?

JASON: I won't go through the entire thing. It's pretty long. But just, from the very opening paragraph. You know, it's interesting. I'm trying to figure out, so many words of saying, when did the obvious, or stating the obvious become controversial?

GLENN: That's exactly what -- oh, my gosh. That's exactly what I said about this on the air. I read the policy on the air two days ago.

And I said, when is -- when did it become the obvious, it's like so revolutionary?

So controversial.

That is amazing.

JASON: Crazy.

GLENN: That is amazing.

The AI Jobs Crash is COMING... And We're Not Even CLOSE to Ready

AI is NOT the bubble... the real bubble is jobs. Entire industries are on the verge of disappearing, and college degrees are rapidly losing real-world value as automation accelerates. The next decade is set to erase millions of careers far faster than most Americans are prepared for. Manufacturing continues to collapse, robotics and AI are replacing workers at an unprecedented speed, and a widening disconnect between higher education and economic reality leaves younger generations feeling cut off from the American dream. A deepening generational divide, rising economic hopelessness, and the uncertain future of both white-collar and blue-collar work reveal a reshaped workforce where even trade skills are only temporarily secure. This is the new landscape facing the next generation—and it is arriving much sooner than anyone expected.

GLENN: All right. So we are -- we're just talking about how jobs and AI. That's the bubble that everybody should be talking about. Not the AI bubble. Everybody should be talking about the yobs bubble.

And I think in some ways, everyone in America is. I mean, why?

Honestly, why -- why would you go to college?

I mean, anybody who is sending their kids to college, unless it's for something very specific or you just want, you know, your kid to find themselves. And to, you know, whatever. That is.

Why?

Why are you doing it?

I'm -- I'm begging my kids, trade school. Trade school. Trade school. Trade school. Because that -- that is the job -- those are the jobs of the future. Trade schools. You know, you can be a plumber. I don't know how long that will last. Maybe ten or 15 queers. But that will last longer than let's say truck driver. That will last a lot longer than attorney. Physician's assistant. Well, maybe a physician's assistant. A PA will probably last a while. Nursing will probably last a while.

But doctors -- I mean, it's -- it's -- you don't need as many as we have, right now.

In the future. Because it will be able to be done, robotically.

And I know this sounds crazy, but it's coming! It is come!

Now, we need doctors. So, yes. Go to school for a doctor. But what else?

Why are you going to school? Accounting? Business?

Really? You need that degree.

JASON: I had the same conversation with my son. Exact same.

Doesn't like it. Doesn't even want to talk about it.

STU: It is depressing.
JASON: Yeah, it is depressing, but they completely shut down over anything.

I told him -- I even offered him, I said, I will go to an electrician school with you.

We will do it at night. I was going to do it just to learn another skill.

GLENN: He was confident in the show? No, the sports thing is going to work out, Glenn. The electrician.

JASON: I was actually trying to get around my life screaming at me, the next time I blow the entire circuit in the house. It happened a few times.

GLENN: Sure. Sure. I got it. I got it. You know something I don't know.

JASON: They don't even want to talk about it. These are issues that I'm scared about. It's a complete crazy circle catch-22 situation going on right now. On one hand, the youth are not able to basically survive in the economy right now.

GLENN: They're not able to survive in anything.
JASON: No.

GLENN: In anything. If it's not cooked in a microwave, how many of our kids know how to cook? Even know where food comes from?
JASON: Yeah.

GLENN: I mean, they're not able to survive. You know, I read something about Teddy Roosevelt.

STU: Robotics can definitely do that. Right?

You think, if all this stuff is going away, these jobs are going away, who will need to know how to cook?

This becomes a really depressing conversation. I'm not surprised your son was like, gosh, this sucks. And shuts down. You know what, my -- I have a relative who owns a plumbing business, and he does great. He does awesome.

And it's been incredible for him and his awesome family.

GLENN: Awesome.

STU: That being said, not everybody wants to be a plumber or an legacy. So if what you're --

GLENN: No, I know that.

STU: You're the bad parent in the after school specials. Like, just screw your dreams. Go be a plumber. Who wants to be that guy?

GLENN: Not true. Not true.

My daughter wants to do the absolute impossible. She wants to be an actress. I would love to say, screw your dreams, you're not doing that.

And she talked about going to school, you know. I could go up to, you know, some university up in New York. And I'm like, that's not happening. You want me to pay for it.

Not paying for that. Have a good time. You want to earn it yourself. Go ahead. But I'm not sending you up into that viper's nest.

But I said to her, let's design a school for you. Instead of paying all of this money, let me get private acting classes.

Let me get, you know, private dance classes. It's less than a university. And what you know really got her? Was you then don't have to study all the stuff that you're never, of going to use.

You don't -- you don't -- you don't need to take advanced calculus or anything. Because you're not going to use that. You're never going to use that. You're never going to use that.

Now, my son, he likes math. That's fine with him.

You know, but there are things, when they are driven for something, you don't have to say, be a plumber. You can say, let's find ways for you to learn this in a better way.

STU: Yeah. If you're making a point against the university system, you do not need to sell -- it's like trying to sell me on the Jasmine Crockett candidacy. You have to do no work on that one.

GLENN: Right. Right.

STU: But I do think, it's interesting. I think you're right. I think a lot of these jobs are going to go away. In fact, there are already signs of this.

GLENN: They are.

STU: To the extent of, the back and forth about, you know, tariffs and all this other stuff.

We've seen a decline in manufacturing jobs in this country, this year. A decline. Like, and I don't think that's because tariffs, you know, are shutting down manufacturing anymore than they would have previously.

You know, there's gotten harder arguments about that. But I think more than anything else, people are just taking these jobs offline.

And automating them. All these big companies are replacing thousands of jobs. These announcements are in the news every day.

And it's going to be tough to -- to figure out what the next thing is.

I think you're right. Plumbing and electricians and all these things are going to be very valuable. Particularly in the short to medium term.

It's tough to message that to a kid. Hey. Find this job, that you don't really like. And just do it. It's the only job that exists. It's not exactly an inspiring message.

GLENN: So let me just ask you a question. Because maybe it's me, and what I do.

But I don't think it is.

You know, I'm married into the idea of AI. I have wrestled with it hard. I mean, you know Stu, I've been talking about this since the 1990s. And I've been wrestling with this. Because it is a nuclear weapon, in the hands of every single person.

It's the most dangerous thing man has ever created, and the greatest thing man has ever created, okay?

And so you have to really be careful with it, and have to know how to use it. But, you know, I told -- who was it? Sara, I think I told you yesterday. I said, I am -- I mean, I cried at Kleenex commercials. So, you know, this doesn't mean anything.

But I've gotten emotional using it recently, because there's been stuff inside of me, since I was ten. Things, dreams, ideas that I've always wanted to do. And I'm now being able to not only do those things, but do those things in a way that would have cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars, that would have taken me months to are do.

It was -- just, I couldn't do it. And I'm realizing now, as I'm scratching the surface. I'm learning more about history right now. Because I can grab the resources so fast. I can look into stuff and go, well, that doesn't seem right. And I can go deeper.

What is the difference between doing that, as long as you're using -- you're directing it, and you're using it and checking the sources et cetera, et cetera.

What's that -- what's the difference between that and almost like a book that was written for all the questions that you have?

And because it -- all it's doing, it's taking what you have inside of you.

And following that, is mining for things that will make that stronger.

I've -- I've learned so much history in the last year.

I've learned so much about not just technology, but -- but by -- about my own nature on how I work. What I believe is right. What I believe is wrong.

I mean, I've had this explosion, because I'm using AI every day.
And I don't understand why that's not considered like a university in its own way.

JASON: Can I give you? So you have a perspective of that as a creative.

Think of the amazing things you can do with it. Can I view the perspective of, like, my son's generation?

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

JASON: This is what they're thinking. While this sucks, the economy is so screwed, I will never be able to own anything my entire life.

Now, this is what they're telling us, speaking from my son's perspective, but everyone is telling us, don't worry about it, we're going to build, build, build, and we're betting everything on AI. Okay. Great. So it is going to get better, right?

Oh, how many jobs are going to be destroyed? So I can't do that one thing that I wanted to do because of AI? So the solution to why I can't ever take part of the American dream is what's going to eventually take the job that I want to get, so I can some day get the American dream. They're in that circle. And they're like, I'm screwed.

And then you look at the people like Elon Musk, that says, don't worry about it. Because automation, I'm going to be building all these robots. It's going to completely solve world hunger. But wait a minute. I won't have a job.

So none of the math adds up. They're like, wait a minute. And, no. It does. Remember, Stu. We've been talking about this problem for how many years. And I could not get anybody to listen.

I couldn't get anybody to listen.

The Charlie Kirk Effect: Why His Impact Has Only JUST Begun to Be Felt

Charlie Kirk’s passing became the defining story of 2025, and not simply because of the tragedy, but because of the extraordinary spiritual and cultural awakening that followed. Glenn Beck, Steve Deace, Liz Wheeler, and Jason Buttrill reflect on how Charlie’s life, integrity, and leadership transformed young conservatives, reshaped the American Right, and ignited a nationwide revival unlike anything seen in decades. From the shock felt across the country to the outpouring of renewed faith, unity, and purpose, Charlie’s legacy continues to move hearts and inspire millions. This episode honors the man who built a generational movement, awakened a nation, and left a light that refuses to be extinguished.

Has THIS Islamist organization BROKEN state laws for YEARS?!

A new report accuses CAIR Action, the political arm of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, of breaking state laws with its political activism. Glenn Beck reviews this story...

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: So let me go over what is -- what's happening with -- with CAIR.

You know, the Founding Fathers were obsessed over accountability.

Because they knew one thing. You know, they did. They must get suggestions from people on, you know, through tweets. They studied every single system of government.

Every single republic that survived. That didn't survive.

Why didn't it survive?

They studied all forms of government. They were trying to come up with something that could -- could set people free.

And they -- they worked really hard on putting our checks and balances in place, because they knew, once power slips into the shadows. They knew, once power slips into the shadows, once influence becomes unmoored from law, what rises is not a republic.

It's a machine. And that's what you're seeing right now. We're not living in a republic. We're living in a machine.

We -- I think we're staring at one of the largest unregulated political machines operating in the United States ever! Okay.

There have been a couple of groups that are doing sweeping investigations, two watchdog groups. One of them is NCRI and the Intelligent Advocacy Network.

And they have concluded now that the political arm of CAIR, he known as CAIR action, has been operating nationwide with no legal authority, to do the things it has been doing for years now.

They're not allowed to raise money. They've been raising money. Coordinating political campaigns.

Not allowed to do it. Endorsing candidates. Not allowed to do it, they're doing it. Mobilizing voters, shaping policy, functioning as a national advocacy network.

They don't have the legal authority to do any of it. And no one has said anything.

Now, according to the report, CAIR action doesn't just have a paperwork problem.

Investigators found, state by state, that it lacks the license, the registrations. The charitable authorizations, required to legally solicit money.

Excuse me. Or conduct political activity, in any of the 22 states in which it operates. Think of that!

I know how serious this is, because I remember what it took to get the license in each and every state, for Mercury One.

So we could operate. We could raise money. We could do things in those states. It's a lot of work. And if you don't do it, you go to jail. And they find out pretty quickly.

Okay?

22 states, they operate not one, zero legal authorization.

In Washington, DC, the city where CAIR action is incorporated, the department of licensing and consumer protection told investigators, they have no record of CAIR action ever obtaining the basic business license required to solicit funds or to operate.

Imagine how long would you last in business, especially if you were controversial.

How long would you remain in business, if you never had a business license?

You think somebody would figure that out?

In a sooner time than I don't know. A couple of decades!

This report means, that the organization if true, is engaging in unlicensed inner state solicitation.

It has exposed itself to allegations as serious as deceptive solicitation. Wire fraud and false statements to the IRS. These are big things.

And this is not political rhetoric.

Are these phrases written in black and white. In the law.

And by investigators. In California, one of CAIR's most active hubs. The state attorney general has said, the state attorney general of California has said, same pattern here!

The state of California, to say, yep. That's what's happening here.

CAIR action has never registered with California's charitable registry.

Never filed the required CT1 form. And has no authorization whatsoever to request donations. But they've been doing it in California anyway.

Fundraising, selling memberships. Issuing endorsements. Mobilizing voters. All of that has been done by CAIR action. There's no record of any license. Any permission, ever. Going to CAIR. From California. That's according to their attorney general.

Wow!

That's pretty remarkable, huh? How does that happen?

It's not just the coast. It is also happening to the Midwest, the South, the Mountain West. Every state hosting its own CAIR action fundraising page, complete with the donate now and become a member portal, despite no trace of the legal filings required to operate. That's bad!

Now, here's where the stakes rise.

Because CAIR action presents itself openly, as the political arm of CAIR National.

Investigators are now warning that any unauthorized fundraising or political activity.

Could become CAIR's national responsibility as well.

So, in other words, the parent, CAIR itself, might be held responsible.

Meaning, this is want just a rogue subdivision.

This could implicate the entire National Organization of CAIR.

Now, this is happening at the same time it's coming under national scrutiny. It's also Texas.

And I think Florida have designated the group a foreign terrorist organization. Members of Congress are now asking the IRS, the Treasury, the Department of Education to investigate all of its partnerships, all of its financing, all of its influence operations. I mean, I think they're going to be in trouble.

How long have we been saying this?

But every time, I have pointed out anything about CAIR, I have been called an Islamophobe, which shuts everything down. That is a word, developed by people like CAIR, to shut people down, so you'll never look into them.

So what happens next?

First of all, the reports have to hold up.

Regulators now have an obligation. Not a choice. An obligation to act!

State attorneys general in these 22 states, they might pursue fines, injunctions, criminal referrals.

All of them need to take action!

The IRS, needs to take action. Investigate tax exempt fraud. Treasury Department may review foreign influence or money flow violations.

Anything coming from overseas.

Oh, I can't imagine it. They're so buttoned up, right now.

DC regulators may determine whether CAIR actions entire fundraising operation has been unlawful from the beginning.

But here's the deeper question. And it's not bureaucratic. This one is constitutional.

Can the United States tolerate an influence machine, that operates outside of the legal framework, designed to prevent corruption, foreign leverage, and untraceable money?

If I hear one more time, talking about how AIPAC has just got to be investigated. Fine. Investigate.

I'm not against it.

Investigate.

Why aren't you saying anything about CAIR?

It feels like it might be a tool in the hands of a foreign operation.

Why aren't you saying anything about this?

Because here it is! It's not like, hey. I wonder why.

This is it! This is it! This isn't about silencing CAIR. Muslim Americans are -- that are full citizens, they have every right to speak. Every right to vote. Every right to organize. Participate in public life. No question! They can disagree with me, all they want.

But no organization. None! Not mine. Not yours. Not theirs. None. Should operate a nationwide political network, in the shadows and be immune from all of the guardrails that every other group must follow!

That's called a fourth branch of government!

That's how a fourth branch goes.

By the way, CAIR has placed all kinds of people in our Department of Homeland Security. Et cetera, et cetera. This organization has done it!

This is -- you cannot have a fourth branch of government.

They must abide by the laws.

No -- you can't have a branch that nobody elected. Nobody oversees.

Nobody holds accountable.

We talked about this yesterday, on yesterday's podcast. So what needs to happen is total transparency. CAIR action has to release its filings. Its donor structure. Its compliance records, if they exist. Equal enforcement under the law. I don't want them prosecuted in special ways.

Look, if AIPAC is doing the same thing. AIPAC should be prosecuted exactly the same way.
I want it equal. I want constitutional rule.

If conservatives, if Catholics, pro-Israel, environmental, Second Amendment groups, if they have to comply by the state law, so does CAIR action.

And if CAIR action has to do it, so do the Second Amendment groups and environmentalists, and pro-Israel and conservative groups. The law cannot be selective. It can't be!

I don't know how that's controversial in today's world. But somehow or another, they will find a way.

The Feds have to review all of this. If the report is accurate, the IRS and the Treasury have to determine whether false statements or unlicensed interstate solicitations have occurred.

Americans deserve to know what exactly, who is influencing our elections. Who is shaping our policy? Who is raising money in their state?

Especially physical the organization claims political authority, that it doesn't legally possess.

Because history will teach us one unchanging lesson. When a republic stops enforcing its own laws, someone else will always step in to fill that vacuum because power abhors a vacuum!

Unregulated, political power abhors a free people. So while it's about CAIR, it's not about Muslim Americans. It's not about religion.

As always, at least on this program, we try to make it about the rule of law.

One standard for everyone or no standard at all!

And that more than anything, will determine whether or not our institutions remain worthy of the freedom and responsibility that we have entrusted to them.
