Government Caught Paying $34.3 Million for Politico Subscriptions?!

Thanks to the work of Elon Musk’s DOGE, it was recently revealed that Politico has received $8 million from USAID and other government agencies. The money was reportedly payments for subscriptions to Politico Pro. But BlazeTV’s ‪@lizwheeler‬ joins Glenn to discuss her findings: The $8M was just the tip of the iceberg. In reality, the government has spent $34.3M on “subscriptions” over the past few years. But that’s a hefty price per subscription, especially since taxpayers are paying for it! So, what’s really going on here, and can it explain why Politico has led the way on pushing disinformation about things like the Hunter Biden laptop story? Plus, Glenn reveals how the government treated news organizations like TheBlaze...

GLENN: Liz Wheeler is here. She's the host of Blaze TV's the Liz Wheeler show.

She broke the news early yesterday, that the federal government has been subsidizing Politico. Not to the tune of 6 million. But $34.3 million!

She has the receipts. Liz, welcome to the program!

LIZ: Hi, Glenn. Thanks for having me.

GLENN: You bet. So the media is now saying, this is a right-wing conspiracy. There's nothing to see here. But if the Trump administration -- if -- if those people were all subscribers to TheBlaze and we were getting 6 million or 35 million dollars from the Trump administration, even if it was all legitimate, they would go apoplectic. So tell me why --

LIZ: As they should.

GLENN: What?

LIZ: As they should, when that was happening. This is one of the biggest media scandals of this decade. And it's also a litmus test, anybody in the swamp, anybody, an elected politicians, anybody getting this amount of money from the federal government, they're part of the problem. They're the baddies. Not the goodies here.

So what's happening is yesterday, we woke up to news, that Politico had received $8 million from USAID. USAID, of course, is a so-called autonomous agency of the federal government, that Elon Musk has been DOGing.

He's been exposing corruption in that agency.

GLENN: It's a CIA front.

It is in charge of all the Colour Revolutions all around the world. And the Colour Revolution that they've been trying to pull here in America. Anyway, go ahead.

LIZ: That's exactly right.

I was going to say, it's the nexus of the Censorship Industrial Complex. They've taken their political warfare run and aimed it back at us.

So no better target for Elon Musk than USAID.

This is a scandal in and of itself.

That Politico was receiving $8 million from them in 2024. But what my team and I did is round this website, where any American citizen can find out how their taxpayer money is spent. It's called USASpending.gov.

And you plug in the name of any recipient organization group. We type Politico as the key word.

And then instead of just looking at year 2024, we said all fiscal years. Let's see how much Politico has received in the last 10 years. And what we found, before our very eyes, it began to populate millions upon millions of dollars, totally -- it's $34.3 million.

And, Glenn, this is not just from USAID. This is from a variable laundry list of the most corrupt federal government swampy agencies like the Department of Education. The Department of Health and Human Services.

Subagencies like the FDA. And the CDC. And the EPA. If you look at when these subsidies started, it started just about the moment that Trump descended on that golden elevator in 2015. That's when the gravy train for Politico started.

And then you can see it year by year in 2020 and 2021 when Joe Biden took office, all of a sudden, these subsidies for Politico increased exponentially.

Exponentially. And, of course, you'll have these defenders saying, well, these are just subscriptions that federal government employees paid for Politico pro. It's like a 10,000-dollar a year subscription. They claim it's a premium service.

GLENN: Aimed right toward the Beltway. Aimed right directly at the Beltway. So go ahead.

LIZ: 100 percent.

Well, first of all, that's clinical insane to pay $10,000 for a subscription service.

That's not a subsidy. That's a patronage. If you're paying $10,000, this is what money laundering is. It's nebulous. It's vague. Money is fungible.

So if the bulk of your revenue. Or a huge percentage of your revenue is coming from so-called federal government employees, that are paying this exorbitant fee, what are you going to expect in response?

You're going to expect in response, coverage exactly like Politico is giving us.

Where they told us the Hunter Biden laptop wasn't real. That it was Russian disinformation.

GLENN: But they were the leader on that. They were the leader. Yeah.

LIZ: They were! Of course, which makes sense where they're getting all this 33.3 million. They were defenders of the COVID-19 jab, the Moderna jab, even for young men, which we now know is dangerous.

They're the ones that led, when the Supreme Court leaker leaked -- when the Supreme Court was going to overturn Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs case. They were the ones that published that. So they are the arm, the propaganda arm of the federal government. And here's what's funny.

My team and I got a hold of one of these log-ins for a Politico pro-subscription. We just borrowed it from a friend because we're normal people. That's what everybody normal does.

Aren't going to pay for this. And we went in there. And we went, well, what does Politico pro offer? They said it's a critical function of their job to have access of this.

You know what is behind their pay wall there?

It's a glorified Rolodex. It's just like the phone numbers of staffers and the federal government, kind of a rumor mill. All very publicly available information, if you just exert the tiniest bit of effort.

We're still digging into it, and we'll keep you updated. We'll have more on this Monday on the show.

There is, so far, absolutely nothing useful that would justify even one 10,000-dollar subscription, let alone $34.3 million!

GLENN: This -- as you said, is the biggest scandal in media. So you know, Liz, just a point of information that most people don't know.

During the Obama administration, it may still be true.

I don't know.

You couldn't not only get to Blaze TV, to log on. On a government computer.

You couldn't go to TheBlaze.com. It was banned as a website. For the government! Yeah. Yeah.

LIZ: What? Wow, man. It's so nuts.

GLENN: Yeah. So anybody who is like, you know, they were just -- well, there were a lot of people who wanted to subscribe. And subscribe personally, not through their office.

And just be able to listen or watch. Or just get their news from the news site, TheBlaze.com.

And they were blocked! Every government employee was blocked.

LIZ: I did not know that. It proves exactly what we've been saying. First of all, there is no justification on the face of this earth, for $34.3 million to be given from the federal government agencies to a supposedly objective media organization.

There is just -- there's no explanation for it. We all know that. The swamp creatures that are defending it are exposing their true colors here.

We're not always lucky enough to have an email that says, this $10,000 is for the big guy. Or the 10 percent is for the big guy.

But we know! We're smart people. We use common sense. We know how human nature works. We know if the federal government is giving this exorbitant amount of money to a media organization, what they're going to get in return is coverage and cover-up and propaganda.

And emotional manipulation.

And exactly what we've seen from Politico for the past -- for the past -- for the past decade.

You know, coincidentally since this gravy train began. And one comment on, you know, TheBlaze TV.

I double-checked this morning to see how much our subscriptions are. Because I was like, okay. I pay for a couple of subscriptions to even mainstream media outlets. Although, I really try not to. Because I don't like to give them my money. But I need to for research sometimes.

Normal people pay $100 a year. That's why -- if you go to BlazeTV.com/Liz, it's $120 for an annual subscription, and you can get $20 off. That's what normal people pay.

And even then, they probably share a log in. Which also normal people do.

GLENN: Well, we don't encourage that. But, yes. You're right.

I mean, you know, my initial payment to open the doors, I had a few partners. And they -- I can't remember what they gave. But it was probably around 10 million, together.

And I had put in 20 million, myself.

We started this entire operation, with $30 million!

$30 million, is what kicked off TheBlaze.

When the technology didn't even exist.

That we had to invent all of this stuff to do it.

To have 34 million dollars coming in from the federal government, they are your master!

They are absolutely your master. Could you talk about one thing, Liz?

The press is hanging their hat on the fact that some media outlets said, that was -- that was the cause of them not making payroll. Was DOGE. That didn't have anything to do with it, did it?

LIZ: Well, it depends if you're a swamp creature. And if you view the world through your own twisted reality or if you're a normal person that can look at things, that probably aren't coincidences.

We were told that -- we were told that, according to this initial report. That Politico would never miss a paycheck before.

So I would just pose those questions, to all of us normies, you think as a coincidence that the day the gravy train is cut off, they're not able to make payroll.

GLENN: It's funny. It's funny. Because one of my producers knows one of the people at Politico.

And on the phone, all day yesterday, arguing back and forth.

And this person said, we have payroll glitches here, all the time.

And I thought, I've never had a payroll glitch!

If -- I would get another payroll service, if it was glitchy all the time.

So, I mean, they either have the worst payroll service, which you -- there's lots of them out there, you can get, that actually work.

Or there was something else going on. But that's not the story. The story is --

LIZ: No. That's what they're using to distract from the $34.3 million. Even those subscriptions are a distraction because they don't want us to think, $34.3 million given from basically the Biden regime to Politico.

It is one of the most significant scandals the mainstream media has been exposed without an excuse. Being in the middle of, that I can remember.

GLENN: So we also found out the other day. That our federal government gave millions of dollars to the BBC.

The BB-freaking-C. That have that's supposed to be the queen's money. Not our money!

What the hell are we doing funding the BBC?

I mean, the -- go ahead.

LIZ: No, listen.

This is what is so critical to understand.

The reason why -- I don't know if you've been watching Brian Stelter, it's quite funny. They're freaking out about this.

Jen Psaki on MSNBC, she's like, there's a hostile takeover of the federal government happening. Because you and I are identifying ways that taxpayer money has been corruptly abused. That's a hostile takeover in her mind. But the reason they're freaking out about this, isn't just because their pet projects won't be funded anymore.

They won't have a log-in to their gospel rag. Politico magazine or whatever it is.

Reason they're freaking out. Is because their mechanism of controlling us.

Hinges on the mainstream media outlets.

These corporate media outlets running propaganda for them.

They'll never be able to lie to us. Or emotionally manipulate us.

If the media is not taking a leading role on that.

And now, they can't.

GLENN: On top of that, they also have lost their gravy train through the NGOs.

They found a way to get all of their radical friends to open up an NGO, and then funnel millions of dollars into it so they can do everything that they want with taxpayer dollars!

If you look at just USAID's 2023 fact sheet, they -- the agencies supported 6200 journalists, 707 news outlets, 279 media sector civil society organizations, and the -- and this comes from the Columbia Journalism Review. Now, I don't know.

If you've got 6,000 journalists on your payroll, you could probably influence a few people.

This has got to stop. And I don't know what it's going to take for your neighbors, to stop listening, to the mainstream media.

That's why it's important not to say, in my opinion, that this is why they didn't make payroll. Because we can't prove that. We don't know.

I mean, great coincidence. But we don't know. It's important to say, but this is provably true! It's the thing with Ben Stiller. And, you know, Angelina Jolie going over to Ukraine, getting $20 million.

That didn't happen. That's not true.

You need to know what the truth is! Because the truth itself is so unbelievably powerful!

That you need to know what that is. And that's what we try to give you here, every day.

Liz, thank you for this exposé. It's great!

LIZ: Thanks, Glenn. I appreciate it.

GLENN: Liz Wheeler from the Liz Wheeler show on Blaze TV.

Are Antidepressants (SSRI's) Worsening America's Mental Health Crisis?

A former FDA psychiatrist reveals what Big Pharma never told the public: the “chemical imbalance” story behind antidepressants was never proven — and SSRIs don’t fix a biological defect, they numb the brain. Glenn Beck and Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring break down how America became the most drugged nation in the world and how millions are being overprescribed medications that can cause paradoxical agitation, emotional blunting, and even suicidal behavior. With 15% of Americans — including millions of children — on SSRIs, are we facing a public health crisis hiding in plain sight?

Was the Cracker Barrel Rebrand a SABOTAGE?! - Glenn Beck Reveals what REALLY Happened

Cracker Barrel’s massive public meltdown didn’t happen by accident. Behind the scenes, the company was bleeding institutional knowledge, taking disastrous advice from DEI strategists, and making decisions that alienated the very customers who built the brand. A major board shake-up, the quiet removal of DEI frameworks, and the sudden resignation of a key DEI-linked board member reveal how deep the problems ran — and how desperate the company was to course-correct. This breakdown uncovers what really went wrong, how Cracker Barrel was influenced internally, and why the Glenn Beck interview triggered major internal moves that the public was never supposed to see.

GLENN: So, Stu, you can just questions about the special tonight.

STU: Yeah, for sure. I'm interested in this.

It's a big -- you know, a big special. You're back and forth with it. With them there. Was kind of fascinating. Right?

You have a situation where they -- they do seem to be sort of avoiding the question there on DEI. Is that how you read it? Oh, we lost connection with Glenn. Is that what's about to go?

Well, that's how I read it at least. You know, you listen to that clip of them going back and forth and it does appear to be them just sort of avoiding the question. We should get back to Glenn. Because I know he has this breaking news on this happen. Should we go to another clip on the Cracker Barrel thing, while we're waiting for Glenn to reconnect? Because it sort of sets the stage. You know, it was interesting to see their approach here, which is to try to explain themselves and try to work themselves through what is one of the biggest PR disasters probably in our lifetimes.

And let's go to this next clip.

VOICE: If we came out of COVID, A, trying to hire 50,000 people, we have a lot of our employees, original -- we did -- we lost a lot of very long tenured employees. A lot of them, a little bit older, and scared to come back into the -- into the environment.

And so --

GLENN: That's a lot of institutional knowledge.

VOICE: Oh, it hurt. I mean, it really hurt.

And in '22, as we started opening back up, we had the new menu that we had. So we lost a lot of people. We put a ton of training into that new menu.

Now we're coming back to open up, guests, any way we can get them. We had patio dining. We were testing a rock garden.

They were going to sit out in the landscape. And I always say that co-ed even made Cracker Barrel start drinking alcohol.

Because that's how -- it was out of COVID, that it was like, how are we figuring out how to drive top line sales and try to get a guest in.

GLENN: Okay. So that is a good example of you don't know any of the story. You think Cracker Barrel has never served alcohol before. Why are you shoving alcohol? That's a cultural. So it's easy to think, you're selling people alcohol now. What other values are you --

VOICE: And it's fair.

GLENN: That one, is at least understandable. Now that I understand the story.

VOICE: Yeah. Exactly. And so as we got into '23, I came out of my office administration role, and came into operations.

And I was leading field operations. And the best way for me to describe it, we were throwing Velcro balls at a wall to see what would stick.

STU: And it's understandable. You know, it's easy to kind of look at the Cracker Barrel situation and get lost at how badly it went.

A lot of these decisions come down to the information they had at the time. Right?

And they're looking at the time as a place that maybe people aren't coming into as much as they would like.

They are trying to -- maybe it's fading a little bit. Maybe some people find it's stale.

They think the situation at Cracker Barrel is not one that they're not necessarily trying to get involved with on a week to week basis, like they used to.

Maybe they had those warm feelings of the past. But they're not going in it anymore. Well, we'll freshen it up. We will do all these new things.

This will be great! And you realize, sometimes, when you're in that moment, you hit a -- you hate a vein. Right?

You're trying to do something positive for the company. And you hit a vein, and everything starts bleeding all over the place.

Let me give you another piece of this interview. Glenn Beck, up in the headquarters of -- of Cracker Barrel.

And somehow, I will give Glenn credit. Not eating throughout the interview.

I kind of thought, when they put food in front of him. He would just be shoveling it down his gullet the entire time.

You wouldn't be able to hear him. It would be like talking with his mouth full.

He got through it, without taking as many bites. Here is Glenn with the CEO of Cracker Barrel.

GLENN: Let's just get this out.

VOICE: Okay.

GLENN: What happened to the choices that were made?

I said on day one of this. I remember when they rolled out new Coke. And I thought, that was the dumbest marketing move, the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

We're taking the original formula and ditching it. And let's start over with a brand that people love.

The day this broke, I said on the air, new Coke!

That's what this is. And it was -- no offense. Stupid!

Just stupid from start to finish.

Can you walk me through how that happened?

VOICE: Yeah. Sure.

Look, our guests have every right to be upset.

GLENN: Yeah. You want to watch this. And I -- you know, what I really want to you watch for is a moment where I said to her, are you surprised you haven't been fired yet.

That spoke volumes. Her answer, and I hope it is captured on camera.

But that answer was the first non, you know, when you're a CEO. You know, I've -- Stu, do you remember when we used to have to do really important interviews.

And our PR people would be like, drill, drill, drill.

No, don't say that. Don't say that. And we would be like, yeah. Whatever.

And when you are in charge of a Fortune 500 company. And you're in the trouble that they're in, you do -- you know, you follow the people that you have hired to make sure crisis management. You don't make any more mistakes.

And so everybody was very, very careful.

They were very honest. But, you know, like that DEI thing.

She didn't really answer the question.

Of course, we want everybody to be welcomed. Yeah. I know. But that's not answering the question.

When I asked her, are you surprised you still have a job, and you haven't been fired yet. Her answer spoke volumes.

Now, the other thing that you need to know, that while she didn't answer me on the DEI thing. And I -- I -- you know, I can't tell you exactly how this happened.

I just know that they knew, that they didn't answer the question.

And somebody has been in touch with my people. And said, hey. You might want to watch the board meeting that is happening.

We can't tell you that anything is going to be happening. But the DEI thing may be solved. At the board meeting. That happened this morning. And they were going to release something at 11:15 today.

We didn't know exactly what it was.

We had -- we had an indication that it might be about DEI.

And what they've done, at first.

Remember, in August. You know, they just deleted the Pride pages. And the DEI pages.

And they just got rid of it all, at Cracker Barrel. That is just hiding who you are. The real problem was, they had a guy who was on the board of directors. Named Gilbert Davila.

And he's just resigned from the board, today!

Okay? They had a meeting with the board, and shareholders and everything else. And they voted on all of these people. And they did not renew him. And so he is -- he has resigned.

Now, his job -- he was a member of the standing board committee.

And his job was to assess the social and political risk to the company's business.

Well, who is he?

Well, he's also the CEO of a company called DMI Consulting.

That's a DEI strategy firm, that's been in business since 2010.

So he's one of the guys. He was the guy who, his job as the CEO -- as the CEO of DMI, is to promote, you know, DEI.

To make sure everybody is living up to the DEI standards. So Robby Starbuck, who is a friend of the program and, you know, great conservatives, who has been responsible for -- you know, getting a lot of these people out of these companies, or at least drawing attention on what these companies are really standing for.

He's been asking trial. What does he do to deserve this seat on the board?

Well, that's it. He owned a DEI consulting and strategy firm. That was pushing DEI and DEI advertising. So what's happened here is I think while she couldn't answer that question at the time, because the board hadn't acted, I think it's -- I think it's not not coincidental that the day the interview with her drops. With us.

Which they've known for a couple of weeks. This is when this interview would drop.

They -- they announced that morning, that seat has been eliminated. DEI is gone from Cracker Barrel. So I think that's really, really good news if you're a fan of Cracker Barrel.

And the things that I saw at Cracker Barrel, I'm -- I'm going to tell you some stuff tomorrow.

I just have to make sure that it's exactly accurate. Because I don't want to cause more problems.

For us!

And I want to make sure that I get it exactly right. But there were some things that I learned in the show prep.

And, you know, studying up for this interview.

That no one was prepared to talk to me on camera about. And always says to me, oh, well, there's something there.

And so we have done even more homework on it. And tomorrow, I will tell you about something that you might have heard about. This guy who owns, what is it?

Steak and Shake?

STU: Yeah. He's a big activist shareholder, isn't he?

Kind of against some of the leadership there at Cracker Barrel. I think I read about that.

GLENN: Correct. Yes. Yes.

And he has an interesting history.

And I want to -- I want to take you through some of that tomorrow.

I think by tomorrow, you're going to understand, what you saw with the DEI vote on the board today. Get that gone. That's gone.

The interview that you'll see tonight with Julie. The CEO. She's not who you think she is.

It doesn't mean she didn't make huge mistakes. She says she makes huge mistakes. But she's not who you think she is.

You may not agree with her or whatever. But it's important you know who she is. And what she said.

And the key tonight is that question: Are you surprised that you haven't been fired yet.

And really, what happened after she answers the question. And she's very uncomfortable. Answers the question.

And then she immediately switches topics. And I'm like, wait. Wait. Wait.

Stop. Stop. Go back. Why are you switching topics here?

Because it was an amazing moment. Is she immediately changes the subject. After she answers. And then she comes back, and she he says a few things. You'll see.

And then I bring it back to her again. And she switches topics again. And I'm like, why are you doing that?

Why are you doing that?

And she said a very interesting answer on all of that.

That is one of the most honest things I think I've ever seen a fortune five company or CEO ever say.

It was really uncomfortable. But really, really honest.

I think once you see this. And then I tell you tomorrow about the -- the board member, on the things that I can verify. I'm not sure what we can verify yet.

But the things that I've heard. And the things I think I can verify tomorrow. You will see that -- that I think they made stupid moves. They have really bad advice from DEI people.

And they were set up.

To some degree.

They were set up.

The company was. Not individuals. The company was set up.

I think it will -- I think you will have every question you needed to know about Cracker Barrel and what happened answered.

WARNING: The Threat of Sharia Law in American Cities is Now a Reality

Texas is becoming the front line of a growing ideological struggle. While courts block the Ten Commandments from classrooms, public schools are opening Islamic prayer rooms as CAIR and other Islamist political groups gain influence across the state. Glenn Beck and Chip Roy warn that this isn’t about private worship, but rather a coordinated movement to weaken the nation’s Judeo-Christian foundations, undermine constitutional law, and smuggle Sharia-aligned norms into American institutions. As judges enable these shifts and political factions fracture, a broader conflict is emerging that most Americans refuse to acknowledge. Texas may be the battleground that determines whether the West wakes up in time.

GLENN: We're talking to Chip Roy about the Islamification of Texas and the United States. What's going to be done. A -- a -- a -- a new attitude from Governor Greg Abbott yesterday. And a new proclamation that came out and said, enough is enough.

On CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood. We're going to deem them terrorist organizations. We were just talking about what's happening with the Ten Commandments. And before we -- before we switch here, one more thing on this -- this Muslim thing. In schools.

You know, we can't have the Ten Commandments, Chip.

However, at liberty High School in the Frisco ISD in Texas, they now have prayer rooms for Islamic prayers.

How is it we can't have the Ten Commandments in Texas, but Frisco ISD public school, Liberty High School, can have prayer rooms, and nobody says anything?

CHIP: Well, first of all, this is the double standard of the left. But let's take a step back. What you just said out loud. Frisco, Texas. Frisco. My daughter was born in Frisco.

GLENN: Yeah.

CHIP: Has now got Islamic prayer rooms, okay? That should concern you.

GLENN: It does.

CHIP: And by you, I mean the listeners out there. Like, Texas listeners.

And, yes, the Ten Commandments case. It's judicial activism. The Supreme Court has upheld the ability to have the Ten Commandments displayed in public form.

Again, the Ten Commandments sits on the grounds of the Texas Capitol. And the case like I said, Ted Cruz litigated as solicitor general. Working for then attorney general Greg Abbott. Governor Rick Perry, and we won that case.

And I think we will be able to win that case, when it goes up, and it's no doubt, it's being challenged in the fifth circuit.

Then likely the Supreme Court would look at it.

With past presidents and say, we have the Ten Commandments.

Look, we have to decide who we are as a people.

And we got to start acting like it. Because this nation has been blessed because we are a Judeo Christian people who formed a country. That is a -- liberal, in the classical sense. You know, republic liberal democracy.

And we allow the full range of views to be discussed. And for people to believe whatever they believe.

And you and I will die on the hill to protect that. To protect the government over the mind of man. But we are also are a group of people that's bound together by a common sense of ideals, in our history, in our founding. And when you break that down, you will no longer have a country. And that's what we've got to -- you know, when those men --

GLENN: Go ahead. Well, you were saying a minute ago. You know, that should concern you, that there are prayer rooms in Frisco, Texas. It doesn't concern me that there are prayer rooms.

What concerns me, this is a coordinated effort to bring Sharia law into our country.

I don't care if you're Muslim. And you respect the Judeo Christian laws that we have. That's what our country are built on.

That's what our laws are based on.

And you say, this is a really great system. Because it allows me and everybody else to worship God of our own understanding.

When you're part of a movement to subvert that law. And to fundamentally transform the United States into something that it is not.

That's when I have a problem! And that's when we should stand up, but that's one of the things that CAIR does. CAIR makes anything that we have said, Islamophobia. And so they shout you down, and make you afraid and try to paint you as a hater.

I don't hate. I don't hate Muslims.

I don't. I do despise Sharia Law, and I despise anyone who comes here, and wants to supplant the United States Constitution, and replace it with Sharia law. That's -- that's a no-go zone.

No. Sorry. Not going to do it.

JASON: And the history of Sharia law. And the history of those inherent to it, which would suggest that that is the goal.

GLENN: Yes.

CHIP: And that's what we've seen borne out in countries across the world. So we should recognize that in carrying out our policies and these activist judges, and they are going to cede the ground. Okay?

In the name of the First Amendment, they are going to cede the ground with a supposedly secular society.

And, you know, essentially, genuflecting to -- the Bill of Rights, while walking away from God.

They're going to cede the ground for a world in which we are going to invite those who wish to destroy America, to have a front row seat right here to do it, and we've got to stop those judges.
And we've got to act. And so, you know, the House of Representatives should act on such an obvious case like Boasberg.

We should -- and I know that my religious liberty friends will do that on the Ten Commandments.

And they're going to be litigating that. And I will be quite confident the state will litigate that to defend the state law and defend the schools.

Then you go to the -- you know, redistricting opinion. Right? It's really extraordinary. I don't know if you read the scathing rebuke of the two judges. The -- particularly, the one judge, Judge Brown by Jerry Smith, right? Who was dissenting judge in the three-judge panel. So for those of you who don't understand, when you have a case on the redistricting issues. Right? It goes to a three-judge panel. And this three-judge panel, it was a two-to-one opinion, and it was a Democrat appointee. Appointed judge.

It was a Trump-appointed judge. Judge Brown. And then Judge Jerry Smith, who has been on the bench for a long time. Very respected, conservative --

GLENN: Thirty-seven years.

CHIP: Yes, and Jerry was basically cut out. They didn't do their normal deliberation. He wrote a scathing letter yesterday.

In addition to them filing a dissent. Because he was blocked out of the process.

It was an extraordinary essentially power grab by the two judges.

Just to run this thing through. I don't think the Supreme Court will take kindly to that.

I think that the stay application that will be filed with the United States Supreme Court. I think that by tomorrow. They filed the stay last night with the strict.

In the district court.

But I think they will go to the Supreme Court, with the stay, probably tomorrow.

That attorney general Paxton and Abbott to strategize for the timing.

But I think that's right.

And, you know, I think the you court. Judge Roberts, his faults on many opinions, has been pretty good on race. You'll remember, the Supreme Court opinion that -- that struck down the abhorrent, you know, language in section five that was unconstitutional, Voting Rights Act. And they cleaned that up.

And in that opinion, Robert said, that divvying us up by race was a distorted business. That was his quote. And I think Roberts will be on the right side of this. I hope so.

Because this is very clearly political exercise by the legislature.

The judges tried to indicate that it was racial gerrymandering. No! It's the opposite.

Texas is trying to undo racial gerrymandering, which we believe is unconstitutional on its face. You've got California out there, who is taking five of the nine Republican seats away.
So it's currently, what?

I think, what? 45 to nine?

And it's now going to be something like 50 to four? My numbers may be off one or two. It's crazy.

And then in Texas, we were kind of trying to rebalance it a little bit.

Add four or five new states. A lot of growth in Texas. And now, they will say, that that's somehow not profitable. Because we somehow are doing racial gerrymandering.

We're undoing I think racial gerrymandering with a politically motivated goal of having more Republican seats in a very Republican state. So I hope the Supreme Court sees this for what it is.

And issues a statement. You know, we'll have to see what they do.

GLENN: Let me take to you Washington again. This Comey thing is driving me out of my mind.

Because once again, here's somebody, that looks like they will not pay a price for anything.

James Comey. A judge has said that the government has screwed this -- this up. In gathering information.

And filing.

And so now it looks like the Comey case will not move forward. Any thoughts on this?

CHIP: Well, look, I have not had a chance to dive into this as deeply. I know that the district Judge Nachmanoff, or whatever the judge's name was. Pressed, you know -- this -- this opinion forward.

And, you know -- or I'm sorry. Not pressed the opinion. Pressed prosecutors. A hearing.

And I don't know what the exact result is going to be.

The Biden appointee. And, you know, we're -- we're going it to see what the result is.

Obviously, Comey, we believe lied to I think the Senate judiciary committee, among others. Under oath.

And that is, in fact, an indictable offense.

And so, you know, I'll go look and see what they're claiming in terms of whether the grand jury got to see the final indictment.

Or whatever these issues are.

Obviously, the former prosecutor is important. You have to follow the procedures.

GLENN: You have to.

CHIP: Do it right. But also can't lose the forest for the trees. I think Comey very clearly lied. And so, we're going to -- hopefully, this will proceed. That's about all I've got on that one.

GLENN: All right. Chip, thank you very much. If anyone wants to get involved in your campaign for Texas attorney general, how do they do it?
CHIP: ChipRoy.com. C-H-I-P-R-O-Y.com. You can follow me at Chip Roy TX on X/Twitter.

And, Glenn, always appreciate what you're doing out there. Thanks for being on the tip of the spear. And the forefront of talking about this important issue. About defending Western civilization.

And all the issues. I'm deeply appreciative.

GLENN: I tell you, Chip. I -- I've been saying recently -- I've been saying it for a while, since I wrote the chalkboard on what was going to happen, back on Fox days. And I said, all these people will gather. And then they'll sort it out.

Once they think they have it, they will start eating each other.

And they're starting to see that with the left now eating the Democrats. So Democrats are over. Now it's just going to be Marxists. But it will come down to the Marxists and the anarchists and the Islamists. And as I said then, in the end, it will just be the Islamists, against the Western world.

Because I would bet on people who believe something, much more than the Marxists.

These people have religious zeal. And they will -- they will eat the Marxists. And then it will just be western world against the -- the Islamists. And I think, chip, we are in World War III.

We have just not declared it yet. And people haven't woken up to it yet.

We are in the beginning stages. You will see history in 100 years from now. Will write, this is the 1930s, if you will.

This is the beginning of a world war, and nobody has caught up with it, yet.

Would you agree with that?

CHIP: Yeah. Glenn, I agree with you. You have, and you were a long time ago -- others have caught up to it. And, frankly, caught up to where you were. And, look, it is one of the core reasons I'm running for attorney general.

Look, I can keep doing what I'm doing up here. God blessed me the ability to fight and make changes up here.

We've done some good things.

Look, we have to preserve in the state of Texas. And the battle is exactly what you said. You can't win a war. If you don't even acknowledge that it's happening.

That's the problem. People are asleep at it. Again, like I said, it's what I last talked about. Because of the reality that you just said.

And that vast network, we have got to follow the money and destroy that network. It's an integrated, related network. You know it. I know it. I can promise you, smart people in Washington are looking at this.

I can tell you, I'm building teams in Texas, to look at this right now. And connecting those teams in Texas and in Washington. And other AG's offices, which is what I'll do on day one of AG. Frankly, once I'm blessed with the nomination, I will be working on it all next year. We will build the team, and we will fight to dismantle it.
