Glenn tells the TRUTH about how BAD our economy REALLY is

The U.S. economy is struggling, and signs show the strength of the U.S. dollar is only getting worse. In this clip, Glenn explains why — thanks to Saudi Arabia — the petrodollar is in HUGE danger. And, if the petrodollar disintegrates, so will the U.S. economy. But you won’t hear this anywhere in the mainstream media, Glenn says. So, he gives you the FACTS about how dire our economic and monetary situations truly are: ‘No one is telling you the truth. No one will tell you how bad things are.’

GLENN: I want to share something with you that comes from Branden Smith.

I think this is probably the most accurate on what is coming. I told you -- I've been telling you this for a long time. But I told you a couple of weeks ago, that you were going to start to see Saudi Arabia with the World Economic Forum, get off of the US dollar.

I have said, since 2008, show me a path where the dollar doesn't collapse. And I've been giving two answers every time from all the experts.

Glenn, the US dollar is the only way for think about in any country, to buy oil. It's called the petrodollar.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get that. But what happens if the petrodollar -- it's never going to go away.

Okay. Saudi Arabia is our good friend.

They know what getting off the petrodollar would do to their very friend, and protector, of the United States.

So it's not going to happen.

Okay. Okay. Okay.

And, you know, another thing, Glenn, that you don't understand, is that there's just too much out there to lose.

And these banks, and these countries, they're not just going to let the dollar collapse.

They'll lose too much.

So stop worrying your cute little head about the dollar.

Okay. All right. Well, that's what you will hear from all of the experts.

That is either head in the sand ignorance, or a blatant lie.

The thing that has kept our dollar in place, is the petro status. It means that Saudi Arabia will only trade in -- and OPEC will only trade in US dollars. So if you have a wan or a ruble or a yak, you have to buy a dollar that you can send them to OPEC. Okay?

That's why all the countries keep the US dollar on hand. They need it to buy fuel.

Well, guess what just happened at the World Economic Forum.

Something that will never, ever happen. The Saudis have now said, yeah. We'll pretty much take anything. They're not that picky. Yeah. You can buy it with other things. Sure, go ahead. Let's give that a whirl.

Well, Glenn, that will never -- it just did.

It just did.

Well, I mean, the -- the rich and the powerful, I mean, they have too much to lose, and they'll never just allow the dollar to -- hmm. Unless the rich and powerful are part of something like a great reset. Unless the rich and powerful are the ones that know what's coming, because they're the ones that screwed it up, they're the ones that have been funneling money to themselves, from our Treasuries and from our printing presses. While they're screwing the little guy. They seem to get richer. Why is that? How come the banks have received trillions of dollars, but the little people didn't even know that was happening?

It's almost as if, these people were robbing our Treasuries. Looting our countries. Knowing that it's going to collapse, and they're positioning themselves to be ready, when it collapses into the system they are building.

The only ones who don't know is you. Well, it's a conspiracy theory. Is it? Is it?

You can play that as much as you want. I'm telling you, these are the robbers. These are the guys that have been hiding in the hills.

These are the ones that are stealing you blind.
It's the golden goose. It will never -- uh-huh. Uh-huh.

They will cut the head off the golden goose. And when they actually start to get out of dollars. These countries are already selling their dollars. But it hasn't really started yet. As they start to get rid of those dollars. What happens to those dollars? They're no longer in somebody's vault. They're now pouring in all over the country. Which makes our inflation even higher.

You'll have to have a way out. I mean. Hey, what a coincidence.

We have the central bank digital currencies being approved right now.

All over the western world.

The IMF has been working on a basket of currencies for a while now.

Just in case the US dollar would ever collapse. Oh. Good thing they've done that just recently, when one of them must have figured out that, oh, all the things they've been telling us is not true.

So somebody at 2 o'clock yesterday was like, hey. I know it's Sunday, but I just figured something out.

We should do something.

Yeah. They've been planning this for a long, long, long time.

Okay. I want you to listen to Brandon Smith. 2017, he said, I published an article, the Saudi coup signals war, and the New World War reset. I noted at the time that the sudden power shift over to the crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, indicated a change in Saudi Arabia's relationship to the US. To understand how drastic this coup has been. Consider this: For decades, Saudi kings maintained political balance by doing -- by doling out vital power positions to separate, carefully chosen successors.

Positions such as the Defense Minister, the Interior Minister, the head of the National Guard.

But today, Mohammed bin Salman controls all three positions. Foreign policy, defense matters, oil and economic decisions, and social changes are all in the hands of one man.

So who backed this? Well, it was backed by the public investment fund. A fund comprised of trillions of dollars.

Where did that come? From globalists. Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, BlackRock, the head of the Saudis now fell into favor with the globalists for one reason. He openly supports vision for 2030. What is the vision for 2030?

Oh. The vision for 2030.

That's the World Economic Forum.

That's the UN.

That's The Great Reset.

We're going to get all of these carbon fuels.

These fossil fuels.

And we're going to have carbon controls.

Wait. Glenn, that is the -- that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

It's Saudi Arabia. Why would they ever do that?

Because the Saudis have been given assets to ESG-like funding. As well as access to AI advancements. The so-called digital economy.

Hmm. So the Saudi elites are willing to dump the dollar and even oil for access to a reimagined economy. A reimagined world. Fantastic.

Fantastic.

Here's the thing: Saudi Arabia has jumped on this bandwagon. China has bumped -- has jumped on this bandwagon.

When this really starts to kick in, our economy -- well, let me just put it this way. We outsource our inflation. Okay?

Because everybody else is running on dollars, that they have to buy from us.

Their inflation goes up. Because of what we do. So I think I told you this in 2009, the rest of the world is going to hate America. If this ever comes really out. And everybody really knows. There's a couple of heads on the chopping block.

One, America, that's just over. Because we've destroyed -- our choices, to just spend and spend and spend. Our choices are going to be used against us, by foreign leaders who can't keep their people in control and need a villain. And it will be the United States.

Then on top of that, you have the World Economic Forum. The World Economic Forum, which has orchestrated a lot of this. The Federal Reserve.

What happens when the Federal Reserve raises interest rates? Because they have to suck all that money back in.

And yet, we don't stop spending. Hmm.

That's going to be a problem. Don't you think?

And we're going to have to start spending.

Because things like Social Security. It's on the brink of collapse.

When is somebody going to stand up? A politician? A real leader?

I mean, I'm going to be 59 in a couple of weeks. Fifty-nine. I can't believe it. I don't know what happened. But all of a sudden, I'm 59 years old. I've known my whole life, I'm not getting Social Security. If I get Social Security, it's going to be worthless. It's going to be worthless. I've known this my whole life.

Okay. Why is it short?

Because at one point, we had enough people working that could pay for the older people. Okay?

We used to have a bunch of young people working, and they all contributed to the Social Security. I think it was 16:1.

So people working, and they -- their portion of their Social Security, would go to the one.

It's now two and a half to one. How are you going to keep that up? Especially when people start losing their jobs. How are you going to do that?

The -- the most logical thing to do right now: Is to begin telling everyone, when you hit 65, you've got to keep working. Unless there is, you know -- if you're 65 and you're getting it, you're 65 and you're getting it.

But you've got to keep working. And if you're 60, you get half. Now, this is going to be a real problem. Because I paid Social Security my whole life. Why don't I get it? Because it doesn't work. I fought against it, but we could never get it changed. Okay.

So for the next 15 years, 20 years, whatever it is, but it has to change. And people who are 59, need to understand, you've got to work until 72.

I don't want to work until I'm 72, but I'll work into I'll 72 or 75. Social Security was designed at a time when the average guy, who was the main worker, died at 62.

It was rare that you made it to 65. So maybe, if you want to go back to that, maybe you're working until you're 80 now.

But nobody will touch that, because no one is telling you the truth. No one will tell you how bad things are. But you know how bad things are.

Do you know 25 percent of all millennials right now, have their rent paid by mom and dad?

Twenty-five percent has their rent paid by mom and dad. And there's more. Sixty seconds.

If you've suffered from agonizing pain, you don't know what it's like, and you think managing pain is the equivalent of shaking a magic wand and thinking it's gone. That's not true. The truth is pain is difficult to manage, especially every single day.

A lot of the things that we take to manage pain, either don't work, or have some sort of drug in them, makes you feel crazy all day.

You've got to stop with all of this stuff. If you or somebody you love are dealing with pain, please, give Relief Factor a try. It's not a drug. It was developed by doctors. It has four key ingredients to fight inflammation. Which causes most of our pain. So give it a shot.

Don't really have much to lose, except your pain. Three-week Quick Start. 19.95. It's a trial pack. Try it now. Seventy percent of the people who order it, go on to order more. ReliefFactor.com.

GLENN: Okay. So there's a new poll out, this is a story in TheBlaze today. Poll measured how many millennials are getting their bills paid by their parents. One-fourth of millennials get their parents to either pay their rent or help pay their rent.

Another one, is 19 percent -- 19 percent of all adults say their parents pay their rent in another poll. Another 19 percent of adults say their parents pay for their groceries. 16 percent say their parents pay for utilities. 39 percent of millennials struggle to find information and other resources to help with their finances.

Now, 69 percent of respondents in the northeast say they earn money by helping their neighbors, only 43 percent say the same in the southeast.

I'm wondering if that's because people just help their neighbors. 85 percent of respondents see themselves as financially responsible when it comes to things like credit scores and savings. But 50 percent of them struggle with unnecessary spending and unbudgeted expenses. Forty percent struggled to remember to pay the bills on time, to remember to pay the bills on time.

Not -- do you struggle to pay your bills on time? Do you struggle to remember to pay your -- when I -- I remember when I was, you know, the age of a millennial, that was the scariest time of the month. I remembered.

It was constantly there in the back of mine. Oh, my gosh. How am I going to make it? How am I going to make it? How am I going to make it? I didn't struggle to remember it. But there's also something else that is coming. So we have Social Security. It's collapsing. Nobody is going to do anything about that.

Because it's always framed as freak out, freak out. We're all going to die. We're killing grandma. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. It's not going to happen. Americans care. We have -- we have -- I believe stopped caring as much because the government has just I think destroyed so much of our responsibility, that we just think, well, somebody is going to take care of it. No, we're supposed to take care of our elderly. We're supposed to be taking care of the widow. We're supposed to be doing these things. So Social Security is collapsing. Then you find that millennials are not finding jobs.

Then the last piece: The perfect storm. More Americans cannot afford their car payments today, than during the peak of the financial crisis of '08. Now, what's happening with that?

This AI could change EVERYTHING by next year

With Elon Musk’s announcement of Grok 4, humanity is closer than ever before to creating AGI – artificial general intelligence – which would change everything. Glenn Beck breaks down what’s coming in the next year with AI, which even Elon Musk called “terrifying.”

GLENN: Let me tell you the biggest story of the day.

And I think it is the biggest story possibly of all mankind, as of today.

It's going to change rapidly.

I don't know if anybody -- did either of you guys watch the Elon Musk thing last night?

STU: No, I did watch a few minutes of it.

GLENN: Okay. Did you, Jason?

JASON: No. I sure didn't.

GLENN: Okay. So the xAI team was there to unveil Grok 4. This is the latest intelligence, and let me be very, very clear.

Last night was not your typical tech launch. This is a moment that demands everyone's full attention.

We are now at the crossroads, where promise and peril are going to collide. Okay?

I have explained to you, for years, AGI.
AI. AGI. And ASI. Narrow intelligence is what we've always had.

General intelligence is the next step. And that is, it's better that man, one -- one, you know, like Grok. Can do everything. That you can do.

Better that you can do.

Okay?

And then there's super intelligence. ASI.

Artificial super intelligence.

That's when things get really, really creepy.

When you hit AGI, the road to ASI could be overnight.

Okay?

We need to understand what's at stake here. Because Grok four brought us closer to that second stage, than ever before.

Grok four is a powerhouse. They demonstrated it last night.

It surpasses the expertise of Ph.D.-level sailors in all fields.

It can get 100 percent on any -- any test for any field, mathematics, physics. Engineering.

You name it.

This is not a search engine.

This is a system that tackles problems, so intricate, they -- they go beyond our existing knowledge base.

Okay?

Let's say there is -- let's say, we have a fusion reactor. And the magnetic containment system goes down. I don't even know what I'm talking about at this point.

But it goes down.

And the top minds all on earth are like, I don't know what to do. Grok 4 can step in, model the physics, design new material, stabilize the system, and avert catastrophe. And it can do it about that fast. Now, this is the capability, that Musk says is just around the corner.

Mark my words. You know, how many -- how many years did I say, between 2027 and 2030, we would start to see this?

STU: Oh, a million times.

That was always --

GLENN: For years. Right? Yeah, always the window.

And everybody, even Ray Kurzweil said, oh, that's way too optimistic. We may be 2050.

And then people started going, 2040, 2030.

Grok shows us 2026 or 2027 is when we're going to hit it. This is the last year, that we have, before things get really weird.

Okay?

Last night, Elon Musk is touting this -- this AI.

And all of the solutions.

And then he says.

Hmm. Probably three times.

Something like this.

And I'm quoting. This is one of them.

It's somewhat unnerving to have created intelligence that's greater than our own.

He then goes on to call it terrifying, twice.

Now, this is a man who has launched rockets, you know, into orbit.

Going to Mars.

And he says, twice!

You know, after he sees the results of it. He says, you know, it's really -- in a way, quite terrifying to see what it's doing.

But we just have to make sure that it remains good!

Oh, okay.

All right. Sure.

Now, the key point in the announcement was the mention of ARC-AGI.

I had never heard of ARC-AGI. I had no idea what it was. But I noticed AGI. And I went, uh-oh. That sounds important. So this is the gold standard. The bench mark testing for artificial general intelligence.

Okay.

As I've said before, AGI. Artificial General Intelligence is a machine that matches all human cognition, across all domains.

Reasoning, creativity.

Problem solving. Not just specialized tasks like playing Go or analyzing x-rays. Everything. For instance, Musk said by mid-next year to the latest end of next year, it will be able to create a full length movie, just from a text prompt.
And do it all at once!

So, in other words, it will say, create a movie, and you just explain the Godfather.

It will do the casting. It will do the writing. It will do the filming, if you will. It will -- score the music, and it will happen that fast.

Almost in realtime. We are nowhere near the computational power now, to do that separately.

But this will do it all at once. It will make a movie with all of it, simultaneously.

So the arc AGI system is the benchmark on how close we are to AGI. Remember, scary things happen at AGI.

Terrifying things happen at ASI. ASI could be a matter of hours, or days after we hit AGI.

Grok 4 scored 16.2 percent on the ARC-AGI scale.

Why is that important? You're like, well, only 16 percent away.

Because last time, it barely broke 8 percent.

And that -- they took that test, last time with Grok three.

And it took us forever to get to 8 percent.

Now, what is it? A year later.

We're at 16 percent. Remember, these things are not linear. The next time, we could be at 32, we might be at 64.

We are on the verge. This is the last year of -- I can't believe I'm saying this. Of normalcy. Okay?

This year is -- we're going to look back at this year, probably two years ago, gosh, remember the good old days, when everything was normal.

And you could understand everything.

This is how close we are!

Everything you and I talked about last night, Stu, about what we're doing in January, make -- put -- does it make it even more critical that that happens like, oh, I don't know.

Right now.

STU: Yeah. For sure.

GLENN: You are going to need to know your values, your ethics, your rights.

You are going to need to know absolutely everything.

Now, Grok 4 is not true AGI yet.

It lacks the full autonomy and the generalized reasoning of a human mind. But it is the closest that we've come.

It's a system that can adapt, innovate, at a level that outpaces specialized AIs by a wide margin.

This is a milestone. This is not a destination, but it's something that should jolt everybody awake. So here's what's coming over the next six months. By December 2025, that's this Christmas!

December 2025, he believes, Musk, that Grok 4, will drive breakthroughs in material sciences.

So, in other words, imagine a new -- brand-new alloy, that is lighter than aluminum. Stronger than steel.

And it revolutionizes aerospace and everything else, or a drug that halts Alzheimer's progression, tailored to a person's DNA.

Grok will drive breakthroughs through material science. So brand-new materials that nobody has ever thought of.

Pharmaceuticals that we never thought could be made.

And chemical engineering, putting together chemicals that no man has ever thought.

That's going for happen by December.

Imagine a chemical compound that makes carbon capture, economically viable. The climate change stuff, that's over.

It will be over.

Because this will solve that! These are not fantasies.

This is Grok 4.

Musk said something that he never thought. He believes that within the next year, by 2027, Grok 4 will uncover new physical laws.

So that will rewrite the understanding -- our understanding of the entire universe.

That there will come -- like there's gravity. Hey, you know what, there's another law here that you never thought of. Wait. What?

That, he says, will come by 2027. This is going to accelerate human discovery, at an unprecedented scale.

I told you, at some point. I said, by 2030. It might be a little earlier than that.

Things will be happening at such a fast rate, you won't be able to keep up with them.

And it will accelerate to the point to where you won't even understand what all of this means.

Or what the ramifications are!

Are you there yet?

In six months, Grok 4 could evolve into a system, that dwarfs human expertise in economics, defense, all of it.

Now, again, it's a bit terrifying to quote Elon Musk. Why?

Because we don't know, what else comes with this.

This is like an alien life form.

We have no idea, what to predict. What it will be capable of.

How it will view us, when we are ants, to its intellect.

Okay?

It is a tool, but it is also Pandora's box.

If Grok 4 is the biggest step towards AGI.

And maybe one of the last steps to AGI.

My feeling is: What I've been saying forever.

2027 to 2030, I'm leaning more toward the 2027 now.

Because of this announcement last night.

We are on the verge of AGI.

And everything in human existence changing overnight.

And as Musk said himself, two times, it's terrifying!

We should act like it is terrifying.

Or risk losing the control of the future, that we're all trying to build. That's the biggest story of the day.

I think! In my opinion.

Bill O'Reilly reveals how Trump can END Epstein files nightmare overnight!

Bill O'Reilly joins Glenn Beck with his plan for how the Trump administration can fix the Epstein Files fallout "overnight." Plus, he explains why he believes there's only one way that former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan get indicted by a grand jury.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: All right. Bill O'Reilly.

Welcome to the program, sir! How are you?

BILL: Welcome. (inaudible)

And right off the bat, I have to correct you.

GLENN: Yeah. You're not alive. What know.

BILL: I mean, you know -- you don't know that?

GLENN: Yeah, yeah. No. I -- I thought you were dead. Anyway --

BILL: You were dead to me, oh!
(laughter)
I --

GLENN: I get it.

BILL: That's just another brick in your wall, Beck.
(laughter)

GLENN: It's good to talk to you, Bill.

Tell me -- you had a conversation with -- with President Trump, what, a couple of months ago, and I talked about --

BILL: Yeah. St. Patrick's Day, he invited me to sit on a cabinet meeting, which he does sometimes.

And he said, look, we've got files, Kennedy, King, Epstein -- what do you think? And I said, well, first Kennedy you've got to put out pretty much everything, which he did. King, he didn't. I don't know why. Because that's important too.

And then on Epstein I said, you have to be careful here, because this is now being used in political precincts. Both sides want to destroy anybody that was associated with Epstein. And the problem is that a federal investigation. They don't make a determination whether you had a -- what kind of relationship you had with Epstein. They just said, so-and-so had lunch with him.

Or maybe so-and-so had -- saw him at a party. And I said, any name of a human being associated with Epstein, in any way, that person is going to be destroyed. Because you know, the press is not going to put anything into context.

So I said, but it's very important that the Justice Department tell the folks what they know.

And you don't have to get specific with anything.

But you have to say, this is the information that we've compiled. And that's not hard.

And I don't know why the Trump administration is not doing that.

GLENN: Wow!

So, first of all, it's your fault, that we're not getting any names. We learned a lot here.

BILL: Probably my fault, but the president --

GLENN: You know what, I think you're right. I don't want all the names of the people. I want to know --

BILL: And I don't either.

GLENN: Right! I want to know the Justice Department has sorted through the things, and then have gone through. And said, this is criminal. This is not. These people are being indicted, et cetera, et cetera. But to come out and say, there is nothing there, I mean, it's -- it's at least --

BILL: It's ridiculous.

GLENN: It's mass incompetence, at least from Pam Bondi. How could she come out and say, it's all sitting on my desk?

And then when she doesn't release it, she says, well, that's because the FBI in New York is thwarting this process. There are people up there, that are trying to keep this from me.

And then she makes no arrests on that. We never hear about that again.

And then now all of a sudden, there's nothing to see.

BILL: Well, listen, Pam Bondi does not make decisions on her own.

No cabinet member does.

All the decisions come out of the West Wing.

So what I believed happened was, Trump was so obsessed with the big bill, with Iran, with Putin, with China.

That this -- they didn't even think about this. Okay?

GLENN: I believe that.

BILL: And it slowly began to unravel. And then I caught it by surprise.

But this is the easiest fix. Somewhere so easy.

BILL: So if I'm in charge, and that would be a great thing for everyone, except you, Beck -- but every other American, if I were in charge, tremendous. You would be in Botswana. Right.

GLENN: Right. Oh, I know.

Yeah. Yeah. I would be the ambassador of the white farmers in -- in South Africa if it were up to you. I know. I know.

BILL: No. You would be wandering around going, I am Glenn Beck. And they would go, who? That's what you'd be doing.

GLENN: That's every day.

BILL: So this could happen within the hour. Pam Bondi announces a press conference for tomorrow.

At that press conference, sitting next to her, is Merrick Garland, everyone.

You had this stuff for four years! Now, I understand that Mr. Garland has gone native and is living in a -- well, we can find him. We can pull him out of there, and have him and Pam, sit there and answer questions in a general way about what evidence the Justice Department of the United States has compiled.

GLENN: Not going to happen.

BILL: That's it!

Well, if it's not going to happen, then President Trump is going to take a hit.

But he's calculating that this will say that it's that night important.

But I don't know why you would not do it.

I just don't know. And I'm usually pretty good at predicting what the president does or does not do.

GLENN: So here's the thing, Bill.

I think he keeps focusing on Epstein. It's not that big of a deal.

It's not about Epstein. It's about justice.

It's about, can we trust the people -- correct!

It's all about credibility and justice.

And he's not seeing that. And I don't know how he's missing that. Because I agree with you.

He's been so busy on so many other things.

BILL: That's right. That's right.

GLENN: This is not at the top of his priority list.

But he did campaign on it.

BILL: Right.

And I don't know if there's anybody inside the White House.

He looks to be annoyed, when this subject comes up.

GLENN: Oh, I know.

BILL: And here's the -- what works -- you have to understand.

A guy like Donald Trump runs it all.

If he's annoyed, nobody will want to annoy him more. Okay?

GLENN: Oh, I know.

BILL: That's how it works. The older arch is, because Epstein got favorable treatment.

By the feds, in the first go around in Florida, that there's a deep suspicion about this case.

But if you break it down, if the Biden administration had any dirt on any Republican associated with Epstein. It would have been out.

And vice-versa.

If the Republicans had any dirt on any Democrats. Now, we know that former president Clinton, was involved with Epstein to some extent.

I don't know if that was a factor, okay? I don't know.

But your right for once. You're right. It's about credibility. It's about the American people trusting that we do have equal justice for all!

So what do you -- what do you make of now the Russia gate thing, coming out, today. Or yesterday.

The FISA court.

The fact that they're now saying, hey.

You know, we need to hold Brennan accountable.

We're like five or six days away.

Weeks away from him, you know, slipping past the -- the statute of limitations.

I mean, all these things are out today.

There's that. There is also the -- let's see here.

The Secret Service -- I think this happened a year ago.

But it's being reported as if it's news.

Secret Service suspends six agents assigned to protect Trump during a Butler assassination attempt. I mean, all these things are coming out. Like, look, we're busy on all these things. And I do believe they're busy on these things.

But it's like the Keystone Cops are in charge of the PR on this. It's bad.

BILL: Well, there's a lot of politics involved in both of those cases. Number one, in order to get Comey and Brennan to get indicted by a grand jury. Federal grand jury, and that's the only passage, you would have to have a whistle-blower, saying, yeah, these guys abused their power. I worked for them. And they absolutely wanted to get Trump.

And they knew the Russia dossier was phony.

And they did it anyway.

If I have that Justice Department.

Then you can get those guys.

If you don't have it, they will not be even indicted by a grand jury.

GLENN: So how is it that we do not have that Justice Department?

How do we not have that Justice Department?

BILL: Well, look. I don't know whether they have a whistle-blower or not, okay?

And if they have a whistle-blower, I want the case to go forward.

I want those two men indicted.

You can't do that, at that level.

As far as the Secret Service is concerned, monumental screw up. Everybody knows it. They fired the morons in charge of it. That woman -- I was embarrassed listening to her, trying to explain.

They didn't know what the deuce was going on. But this was across-the-board, in the Biden administration.

You know, it was a year ago Sunday, this upcoming Sunday.

GLENN: Right.

BILL: And it's just another example of how the Biden administration was the second worst administration in the history of this country. People have no idea how bad it was.

Every single agency was chaotic. Nothing worked. And this is just part of that. And we'll have a slew of stuff on Sunday. Nothing really meaningful.

I mean, they suspended the Secret Service agents, as they should have. They fired the director as they should have. The guy was a nut.

I don't know if there was anything more to that. I doubt it.

I'm more interested in the guy in the bushes. Because they don't know anything about him. I would like to know a little bit about him.

But again, the federal government, it doesn't really matter. It's the government. They never want to tell us stuff, Beck, never.

We always have to pull it out of them. It's almost like Russia or something. Come on!

GLENN: Right. Yeah. Let me ask you, let me take you back again to the Epstein thing.

I noticed yesterday, there were these people who were on the left. Who were taking tweets of mine. That say, look. These things don't make sense. On the Epstein thing. And they just have to be answered. And not anti-Trump at all.

And yet, the anti-Trump people were retweeting that, and they're trying to -- they're trying to get the right to fight against itself again and split people away from Donald Trump, where I don't think this Epstein thing is -- is splitting people from Donald Trump, at least at this point.

And I -- you know, I -- my wife stopped me from answering some of those tweets, yesterday.

Because it's never good, when you -- when I tweet in anger. Which I did.

But -- or was going to. What did you think about how this is being used against the right to try to separate us even more?

BILL: Everything is political. Everybody knows that for you.

But the MAGA people, from the mail I get. And I get a voluminous amount of mail. They're not happy.

GLENN: Oh, I agree. I'm not happy.

BILL: Now, are they going to throw President Trump under the cliché-ridden bus? No. Because to them, the greater good is being served by a fair tax bill.

Trying to cut waste.

Dealing with Iran effectively. And hopefully dealing with Putin.

That's another thing, that's on Trump's plate.

He has to deal with Putin now.

Has to. And that will be the next big story.

GLENN: How is he going to deal with it?

BILL: Lavrov and Rubio, are in Indonesia, as we speak.

And I assume that Rubio is delivering a message. That you either stop, or we're going to just absolutely crush you economically. Which the United States can do. By saying. No bank does business with Moscow.

And if you do business, no matter what bank you are, we're going to put you out of business.

Okay?

GLENN: Yeah. I've only got a couple of seconds. But didn't we already do that under Biden?

BILL: No! We didn't do the banks. We did the sanctions. And the sanctions they can always get around, because China is going to buy as much oil from Russia as possible.

You stop the banks, from doing all business with Moscow? Who is going --

GLENN: Isn't that what the SWIFT thing was all about?

When we kicked them off of SWIFT, wasn't that what that was all about?

BILL: No! Because they can still do a huge business with countries buying their oil.

And they got to pay Putin and Russia for the oil, and that has to go through the banking system.

If you stop the banking system, he can't get paid.

GLENN: Hmm, it's amazing. I'm glad I'm not the president right now. I think he's made some very brave decisions, and he is walking a tightrope. I mean, the world is on edge. And I pray for --

BILL: He looks very tired to me. Very tired. I haven't talked to him in a while, which is unusual. But you're right. You're absolutely right. That's the second time you've been right in this conversation. My God!

GLENN: I know. It's crazy.

BILL: What in the world.

GLENN: I was wrong about you being dead.

BILL: What is happening?

GLENN: It's good -- it's good to talk to you, my friend. Is everything okay? Is everything going well?

BILL: Everything is all right, Beck. We are not only successful, but that's old news. We've been that way for 50 years, but I appreciate you having me on your fine program.

GLENN: Okay. I love you.

BILL: Stu is still breathing.

GLENN: Hmm.

BILL: So that's good. Right.

But I've got a big book called Confronting Evil. Of course, we sent it, and of course you denied getting it. That comes out September 9th, so put me on a dance card.

GLENN: Well, we'll have you on. And you can also find Bill and his YouTube page. YouTube.com/BillOReilly. Or is it The Walking Dead?
(laughter)
He's not even laughing. Maybe he hung up. Bill O'Reilly, great to have him on.
