How America's OIL MESS shows we're moving towards FASCISM

Democrats are pushing forward a bill to ‘reduce inflation,’ even though it will have the exact OPPOSITE effect. This all relates to the far-left’s effort to reduce global climate change, Glenn explains, but why should we trust President Biden to fix ANYTHING? Glenn uses America’s current strategic oil reserve MESS to prove that a) Biden cannot be trusted to solve ANY of our issues and b) to show how America is moving towards FASCISM with a dangerously fast pace…

GLENN: Let me tell you what's been playing on my mind the last few days. And show you exactly what is coming. There is a new report out now, from -- from the government, that shows that this -- this inflation-reducing bill. Oh. I love it. Do you love it, Stu? I love it already.

STU: Oh, it definitely will reduce inflation. That much I know for sure.

GLENN: Yeah. Well, the new government -- the government report says, no. Not going to do that. In fact, it will make it worse. And here's the thing that is kind of left out on the edit room floor, when everybody was voting for it. And that is, that this wonderful Joe Manchin, Joe Biden bill. Is actually going to put the burden on taxes on everybody. But the lion's share goes on the lower and middle class. 400 -- 400000-plus. They're paying their fair share. But it seems as though, a lot of money is going to be raised, from those wonderful, wonderful people. That are just barely surviving now. The taxes are going to be raised. Beginning next year. And it begins at $30,000 a year. So not only is it going to not reduce inflation. Because what's going to happen? They're going to spend this money. They're going to take the money from you. Plus, the money that we borrow. And they're going to spend it. But how are they going to spend it? They're going to spend it, the way they want to spend it. And later on in the program, we'll give you all the details of, where this money is going. But you're going to be relieved. It's going to, you know, the green new deal. It's going to all new green projects. Which is wonderful. But is that how you would spend your money? No. Of course not. The average American is saying that global warming is the last priority on their list. However, it is the Biden administration's top priority. So when they can't convince you to do a Build Back Better bill. When they can't convince you that global warming should even be in the top five. What they have to do is take control of your money, and spend it the way they want. Now, this isn't really about global warming, as we've told you before. ESG scores are a ruse. It is -- it is the largest transfer of wealth, in human history. This is the biggest scam in human history. ESG and global warming. That's not to say, that global warming isn't happened. All you have to do is read a thermometer. All you have to do is look at the pattern. Global climate change is something that is natural. I.e., the ice age. So we have these problems from time to time. And it's just the way the world behaves. And the environment behaves. Are we contributing to it. It would make sense to me, that, yeah. You can't do as much as we have done to the -- to the atmosphere. And not affect it some way or another. The question is: Can we stop it, with the plan that has been outlined by Joe Biden. Well, when Joe Biden can't win in Ukraine. His plan in Afghanistan was a complete disaster. His plan for inflation, is a complete disaster. His plan -- I mean, I don't know if you heard this. He's sick again with covid. He just was tested again this weekend. He has another case of covid. When he can't control these things, how is he expected -- his plan to control the weather, why does anyone have confidence that that would work? It's not really designed to do that. Here's what it's designed to do. Let me show you the pattern here. What has Joe Biden done with the strategic oil reserve? The strategic oil reserve was filled. And we were fine with it. The oil reserve was in case of war, that the United States can fuel its planes and its warships. So we don't have to worry about that, in a time of need. If you use the strategic oil reserve, the strategic oil reserve is gone, within a few days, just from the trucking and all of the transportation on the east coast alone. It's not made to sustain the entire country and everybody's gas and the trucking gas. Okay? So we're depleting that. And everybody has been saying. Everybody I know, says, that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. It doesn't make sense. Because what are you going to do? Donald Trump filled it up, at the lowest possible price, because we had an abundance of oil. We were energy independent. So we bought it at the cheapest price, and filled it up. Now, Joe Biden has taken and cut our strategic oil reserve. And it continues to go a million barrels at a time. Every single day, it is reduced even more. Well, he's made the announcement that he's going to replenish that, beginning this fall. Okay. How much money is that costing? And who are we buying it from?

This is the first key to understand what's really going on. Remember, we're reshaping the economy. We are becoming a fascistic nation. Take everything you know about fascism. And throw it out the window. You know, as far as concentration camps and killing Jews and everything else. My uncle Lee I don't told me one time, because he's talk with your hands Italian, and he grew up with Mussolini. And he told me one time, with a few belts in him. You know, I'm tired of everyone talking about Mussolini. He was a good man. Uncle Leo, keep that to yourself. But what he was concentrating on was the good part of fascism, if you can call it that. The trains ran on time. Things worked. If you've lived in Italy or ever lived there, I think I mailed the letter back home. When I was staying in Italy for a few weeks, when I was 19 years old. I'm not sure that letter arrived yet. Okay?

Nothing works in Italy. So fascism is a way to make things work, so they say. Centralized power. And all the power. And unlike communism, it doesn't take the companies. It has a public/private partnership with companies. That's the fascism, that America is now going down the road, led by Joe Biden. That's not a conspiracy theory. That's not a slam. Put your feelings of fascism in neutral. They say capitalism doesn't work. We have to try something new. So we're going to try something new. They just call it System X, going pack to the 1940s. Because they don't want to call it fascism. But when the United States partners with companies, as they are now doing, i.e. Facebook. Twitter. Google. All of the social media platforms. What are they doing? They are working with, to suppress people's voices. Because the government can't do that. Because of the First Amendment. So what do they do? They just have a partnership, and they call them up, and they say, hey. You have to silence these voices. Have you noticed that voices now, this weekend, are being silenced and people are being pulled off of social media, if they define inflation as two quarters of negative growth. You can't say that now?

That's fascism. So let me get back to the oil. So you're not going to be able to buy gas anymore. Because it gets more and more expensive. And it's going to get more expensive, the minute the government starts to buy oil, itself, to refill the strategic oil reserve. And it's going to be a huge order of oil. And the government gets to pick, which companies get the oil. Get the money for the oil. So you should know this, from anything, in capitalism. When you put in, an enormous order, and you're the biggest client a store has, do you get better service, or worse service?

Do they cater to you, or do they treat you exactly the same as everyone else? That's the key. They will treat you, differently, if you're the biggest buyer.

So just as we gave money $60 billion to Ukraine, and they were definitely not a country, that was going to okay gay marriage. As soon as we gave them, in the middle of war, where, you know, their population is in other countries, as soon as we write the check, and they cash the check. And they have the arms and the money from us, what do they do?

They suddenly pass a law, okaying gay marriage. That is not in line with what the people of Ukraine want. That is not in line with the President Zelinsky. It's not in line with their version of Congress.

They did it because we said, you're not getting the money unless you do it. Now, how is that going to play with the oil companies? You have a big order coming in for oil. If he buys oil from the United States and from our oil companies, which is not necessarily guaranteed, if he does it with our oil companies, I can guarantee you, he will extract more than oil from that country. From that company.

He will now be the biggest buyer, which will hurt you, but it will also give him the ability to say, you know what, I'm not going to buy your oil. I'm going to buy it from another company. I mean, unless you agree to stop doing X, Y, or Z, in oil exploration.

Now, I'm going to take a one-minute break. And I'm going to give you two other bills that are happening. And show you exactly how what we're building now, with these bills that are passing in Congress, is a New World Order. Is a new way, for the government to do business. It is the beginning of fascism. And I'll explain it to you, in 60 seconds.
(music)
First, who is our sponsor?

JEFFY: American Financing. NMLS 182334. Www.NMLSconsumeraccess.org.

GLENN: Who is it?
(music)
Yeah. So who doesn't love going to the bank, and getting a loan? Oh, it is so much fun. It's so easy. You could practically do it at your bank drive through. It takes a lot of time. You really have to pay attention. When you look -- when you're there signing for the loan, and you look at what it's going to cost you over 30 years. You have, well -- I've had maybe two or three small aneurysms, at that point. It's a frightening thing. You need somebody who is on your side. Does not work for the banks. But is working for you. To get you the best loan possible. Right now, wouldn't it be sweet, to long in your rates. Let's say you know you have to move. But you're not ready to pull the trigger on a house today. But you want to be able to do it in the next six months. You can get preapproved right now, with American Financing. And lock in today's rate. It's going to do one of two things in the next six Ms. It's either going to go back to zero, which would be horrific. Or they're going to continue to raise the rates. I don't know. Because we're not living in a sane world anymore. But this will lock in your rate today. And if it's lower, you can the barbecue and say, okay. I want a better rate than that. But American Financing. One of the on me people -- in fact, the only group, is locking in your rate. So you have time. Just in case you want to borrow that money in the Fauci. Please go to AmericanFinancing.net. AmericanFinancing.net. You can call them now. Stu, what is their phone number.

STU: Their phone number, Glenn, is 800-906-2440. 800-906-2440. Or as you mentioned AmericanFinancing.net.

GLENN: See, I'm just trying to bring him along, trying to teach him. Give him a little room. Let him read the phone number, so he can get better. And maybe some day, he too can be in the Hall of Fame. Ten-second station ID.
(music)
(laughter)

GLENN: Okay. So now let's look at the chip bill. The chip bill was another $250 billion. And the chip bill was, what? Was to encourage manufacturing. To make more chips, here. Okay. Well, we all know that that's a good idea. It seems to be the only thing that we think is a good idea. Medicine, make our vaccines here. Make our own medicine here. Our own insulin. Make it here in the United States.

No. Don't worry about it. We didn't learn anything from covid. We can just keep getting all our medical supplies from China. For some reason, we're doing chips. Okay. I think that's a really good idea. But the way you do it, to encourage people to make chips. If you want the government involved at this level. You cut the red tape. And you cut taxes for those companies that are going to make more chips. You give them breathing room, so they can do this. Instead, what we did was pass a corporate welfare bill. And the government is giving that to these companies. So they will make chips. Now, do you think that that money is going to go to any corporation, that is not with social justice. Do you think that money is going to go to any company, that doesn't have the right number of women, and minorities, on the board of directors. Do you think this money is going to anyone, that is not all down with the new way of -- of life. The new tomorrow. Do you think it's going to any company that is not green and is on the bandwagon for green. Of course not.

The United States government at $250 billion has just become the sugar daddy for chips. You have to think differently. They are creating public/private partnerships. So you no longer control through demand, what you want. The government is reshaping our entire world and economy by being the biggest buyer of -- of different things. So instead of doing it the right way. They've passed this big bill, and we've seen it before. So we don't freak out. But what you're missing here is, the insensitive for the government to do it, is different this time. It's not because they think it's the best thing for you. Or even the best thing for the country, that you would agree with. They've decided the direction of this country. And so now, they're going to put these companies under their thumb. The 700 billion dollar green deal. Again, impoverishing you, so you don't have the buying power. And then taking that money, and spending it the way the government wants to spend it. Because they can't get you to do it, they'll do it for you. This is the way they get to a place where in the end, you own nothing. But you'll be happy. Well, if you don't own it, and I don't own it, who owns it? The government, and giant corporations, which makes you a renter. And something that you can't necessarily get what you want. You'll get what the government will give you.

Biden's Farewell Address, Rewritten by Glenn Beck

President Biden’s farewell address was filled with all sorts of irony. Perhaps most shocking was his warning that an “oligarchy” of power-hungry elites “literally threatens our entire democracy.” Surely, he isn’t talking about the progressive elites, right?! Glenn decided to rewrite Biden’s farewell address to better reflect the reality of his administration’s legacy. No joke!

GLENN: All right. So Joe Biden. And I know this is all going to come as new news for you, Stu.

Because I'm not going to lie. It came to me as new news this morning.

When I read it in the show prep.

This is not something, I would even care about. From this president.

But I think it's important just to notice how he's leaving office.

And there's a couple of things. One, have you ever seen a president who nobody gives a flying crap about more than this one?

STU: I don't think so. I mean, have I?

No. Has it ever occurred in American history is more the question.

GLENN: Right. It could be like John Tyler, or Taylor.

I don't even know.

STU: Tyler. That was the one I didn't even know existed. John Taylor, I think was the basis for Duran Duran. John Tyler, former president.

GLENN: Okay. Right. So former -- so I care about what's happening in this administration, just a little bit more than John Tyler!

STU: Or John Taylor. Right.

GLENN: Or John Taylor. Either.

I mean, I care a little bit more about John Taylor. He had some great songs.

STU: He had some great songs.

GLENN: So, I mean, I just don't care.

The only reason I do care. Is because what is he doing today, to destroy our country?

STU: Yeah. We've been doing this series of Biden's parting shots on our show.

Stu Does America, by the way. Blaze TV.

And there's a lot.

You could say, he's not doing anything. Because you think he's incoherent. And falling asleep on the job.

GLENN: No. He's not doing anything.

STU: It very well may be true. It also doesn't matter. He's doing a lot to the country here, as he walks out the door.

It does not seem that anyone seems to care.

GLENN: There was another 500 billion-dollar forgiveness of loans, yesterday.

STU: Not that much.

GLENN: How much was it?

STU: He did 150,000 people. And then another 200,000 people. I believe over the past few days.

GLENN: A lot of money and a lot of people.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: And this one he's saying, because the university scammed them.

Oh, Lord.

Okay and -- yes?

STU: I think that's just -- amazing. You go through a legal proceeding. That's how they get their money back.

They don't get the money back. We don't have to take that on as a country. And again, none of this is legal. None of this is constitutional.

Most of this will be overturned after he's out of office. Most of these poor people who believe they no longer have these loans, will wind up having these loans.

GLENN: Right, but they're still going. They're still going. They're filing all kinds of suits in court, and you're like, that's not going to stand in court. They're not going to pursue that.

It's just -- okay. Well, then stop it. Spend the time to stop it. That's what he's doing. He's just lighting little brushfires everywhere.

Thank goodness, Donald Trump is not California.

He'll put them out quickly, I think.

Now, the -- Biden gave a speech, and I -- I just rewrote it.

I'm sorry. I rewrote the speech.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: Because I said everything that he said, but I added a little bit of the truth.

Okay?

So let me give you what he said, last night.

First, do we have the -- the Hail to the Chief?

Or something that makes it sound official? Because it was very official.

It was in the White House. I'm not kidding.

He was sitting on a pillow last night.

Yeah. No. Real one. And just go ahead. So he's -- and now a message from the president of the United States.

My fellow Americans, folks, I'm serious. This is it.

This is my last address as your president.

No joke!

I've been in public service. For 50 years, now.

Maybe more.

I've seen a lot in my time.

But I've got to tell you, still believe in America.

Well, there's some things that we need to talk about. Things that really worry me.

I'm not kidding.

This is serious stuff.

First of all, the oligarchy thing.

Yeah. It's bad!

Folks, we've got billionaires and corporations running the shows right now, and it's dangerous. Come on. We can't have people, billionaires, who think they can run everything. Like George Soros.

Well, no.

Probably, he deserves a medal, but other people like that, that vote differently than the way we want them to vote.

That's just got to stop. Got to stop. Okay?

He's a good guy mostly. And big tech. Don't even get me started, folks.

Don't. Don't.

It's like my dad used to say. When I was growing up in Scranton, you know, just an average scrappy kid, hanging out with black people and minorities mainly.

You know, my dad used to say to me, don't trust big tech. He was way ahead of the game. Way ahead.

I loved my dad. I will cry. By the way, California, I can relate. Because I had a kitchen fire once.

Anyway, back to big tech. Don't even get me started. We had to work with them. You know. You know, to protect democracy. That's why we had an open line to Facebook and Twitter. Some people called it censorship. That's malarkey. Okay?

It was just, what's the word? Guardrails. Yeah, guard rails for democracy.

That's what that was. And misinformation.

Folks!

I'm serious.

It's everywhere. No joke!

Americans are buried in misinformation.

But let me be clear. We weren't part of that. Okay. Maybe a little bit. But not very much.

I mean, not that you know of.

It's coming out?

Okay. Well, all right.

Maybe a little. We did say Hunter's laptop was fake. Turns out, wasn't. That was a surprise.

No joke, people. I had no idea.

Maybe we had a few things wrong about COVID. You know, like the origins, the lockdowns, the vaccines. But come on! Folks, I'm serious.

It was confusing. You keeping it straight.

Come on.

Look, I know some of you are mad about my family making a few bucks overseas. But, folks, let me tell you, that's how business gets done sometimes.

You know, what are you going to do?

My son, Hunter, good kid. Smart as a whip. Oh, my gosh. What a talented painter he is. Did you hear? Five hundred million dollars of his paintings have been lost in the fire!

Damn it! But a good thing we had insurance on all of that art.

You know, he got some deals. China, Ukraine. Whatever. But it was all aboveboard.

I mean, I'm serious, folks. It's fine. Totally legit. And here's the thing about AI. It's scary.

Artificial intelligence. That's what they call it. I don't trust it. One day, you're talking to your phone.

The next thing you know, it's running your life.

That's why I wanted Congress to ban stock trading for government employees. No joke.

No joke. You can't have senators buying stocks when they know stuff about stocks!

It's just wrong, folks.

Never. I mean, not recently.

I have not recently benefited from stock trading. No joke.

My family made it the old-fashioned way. Through bribery.

That's what we did. All right.

That's America. And let me tell you about America and unity. Folks, we need unity now more than ever.

But you know what is stopping us?

And I mean it!

People who don't listen. They spread lies. They stir up television.

Some of them need to vote for the other guy, and I'm not kidding.

These people are dangerous. Folks, I'm not kidding. Makes me so mad. I could -- I don't know.

You know the rest. Now, I know I've made mistakes. Nobody is perfect. I mean, I'm pretty Tam close. But come on, folks. Give me a break. I'm just doing what's right.

You have to trust me on this. In closing, I want to remind you of the statute of liberty.

That lady has been swaying in the wind for years. But she never falls. Just like America.

She might lead a little to the right or left. But she stays upright. No joke.

It's a miracle. They wouldn't let me change that torch to an ice cream cone. Which I think that would have been great. You know, on her feet, we should have given her some socks or something. Because her feet has to be cold. They're made out of metal, seriously. Seriously, folks.

I'm not joking. What's her hair smell like?

So now it's your turn to stand guard.

Keep the faith. Protect democracy.

And remember, I love the little children.

Hey, God loves the little children.

He keeps them in the palm of his hand.

I've got my palm of my hand on little children.

It's good. Folks, come on!

I'm being serious.

It's real. I love it. I'm serious.

God bless you.

And God bless something else, I don't remember what it was.

So that is a summary of his speech last night.

And --

STU: He's good.

GLENN: Then he walked off into the sunshine.

With the -- and they're pretty close.

He had the seniors come this. You know, from his senior center.

And it was regulated. Ow! That one hurt there. But, hey, he was trying. No, folks, seriously, they're trying their best.

They're seniors. And look at them go. Look at them go.

STU: The Joe Biden players. Ladies and gentlemen.

GLENN: And we're going to miss it. We're going to miss them.

We really are. We really are.

You know, I was thinking, I really don't care except for the instruction.

And I think Democrats have it in the exact right place.

Because they don't care about the destruction, I don't think. At least the ones in Washington.

And they're not paying attention to him at all. They don't care what he's doing. They don't care, okay?

Isn't this exactly the way we should all feel about our president, all the time?

Without the fear of, good God, what is he doing behind the scenes?

Without that fear. He should not have that big of an impact. Nor should all of those clowns in Washington.

You know what I would like to do?

I would like to go back to doing comedy, like, remember, Stu. In the old days, 25 years ago, before 9/11. We were doing comedy.

Wouldn't that be nice? That would be nice.

Would love to do that. But we suddenly had to care. Because these people are out of their mind and out of control.

The way the Democrats care about Joe Biden right now is the way we should care about every president.

Okay?

They should have such little power. No. I'm not joking folks.

I'm not. I'm being serious.

Such little power. We don't care. Yeah.

Yeah. Now, let's go have some ice cream.

STU: I mean, that's -- what the Founders kind of wanted, right?

They wanted a country in which, where you didn't have to think about the cane all the time --

GLENN: Yeah, and you would say, shut up. Shut up.

That's what I think our Founders.

STU: Italian Founders. Yeah. Shut up.

Because, again, it's easy to think about now, as someone you probably like is coming into office.

So you might like the focus on them.

GLENN: Well, I like the focus on them. Because I will fix it. You know what I mean? And then we need to care enough to get those things out of an executive order. And passed as laws. Otherwise, four years from now. We can have somebody -- Karl Marx, they might bring back from the dead. And they will be like, Karl Marx, you know, his first time around didn't go well. But I'm serious, folks. He's great now. And look at that beard. I mean, that's a great beard. Especially for being dead for so long.

And they -- we can -- he will be like, I will do a few executive orders. What? What's the problem?

You know, no! We need to pay attention, so they actually pass these things, as bills.

STU: Interesting. A development on that front. The Republicans are trying to talk Trump out of doing some of these executive orders.

When he first starts. Because of a -- basically a technicality, that comes from this law that we want to pass, this reconciliation bill.

This is their one big bill. To do that. They can pass this bill with only 50 senators.

If it's cutting the deficit, essentially.

And so the -- what -- some of these executive orders that Trump wants to do, will help that. Right?

GLENN: But they need to have them in the pill.

STU: They need to have them in the bill to make sure the scoring is right, so they can pass it.

GLENN: You know, I have to tell you. I think there's more to cut than everyone thinks. Oh, gee, we've got to reduce the deficit.

And you will cut a lot of places. I think you could find more.

STU: I think you can. I think you can.

Again, if you're going to do it anyway. I would prefer, if it's a good measure. And it's going to improve the budget situation. I would rather have it in the reconciliation bill, than as an executive order, for the same reasons you're talking about.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. But I would like to not give away, the stuff that we could get through executive order.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: You know.

STU: If you can get it through the law.

GLENN: Get it through the law.

STU: Get it through the bill. Get it that way. If it's not available there. Then you go --

GLENN: Take it elsewhere.

Because there's a lot that can be cut. Gee. I don't know. We're a few hundred billion dollars away from being able to save the deficit. And pass this bill.

I don't know. Department of Education. Where are the keys?

STU: You can't do that by executive order.

GLENN: No. I'm saying Congress. I'm saying Congress.

We can't do it in the bill.

We can't just pass it with 50, because it's not enough.

Where are the keys to the Department of Education?

I would just like to see them, right now.

Let's put them in the pile. All right.

California Fires and New Jersey Drones: Government Secrets EXPOSED | Glenn TV | Ep 405

The secrets, lies, and utter absence of transparency from all levels of government are tearing our country apart. In just a few days, the Trump administration has the opportunity to change all of that and start a new era of accountability. Over the past decade, we’ve been lied to about Epstein, Ukraine, the Biden crime family … the list goes on! In this episode of Glenn TV, Glenn peels back the layers on two of the biggest stories right now that Americans are DEMANDING answers on: the fires in Los Angeles and the mysterious drone sightings that started in New Jersey but have since occurred all over the world. Then, journalist Michael Shellenberger joins to discuss how California failed to prepare for the Los Angeles wildfires, why there never should have been a dry reservoir, and where he believes the drones are coming from: Are they Chinese, UFOs, or the property of the U.S. government?

The TRUTH About Biden’s Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Deal

The ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas is already showing signs of falling apart. The deal, which includes the swap of 33 hostages for 1,000 Palestinian prisoners, was paused after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of breaking some of its promises. The Biden administration took plenty of credit for the deal, but also acknowledged Donald Trump’s role in its finalization. But Glenn explains why this is NOT Trump’s deal. When Trump takes office, he believes, we’ll see a deal that’s much better for Israel.

GLENN: So let's talk about this deal in the Middle East. Here is -- and remember, the State Department is -- is ground zero for everything bad. In the world.

I mean, I -- honestly, I think Marco Rubio should go in.

And he said fire everyone on the seventh floor. Maybe the sixth.

Just fire them all. You're all gone. I don't care if some of you are good. I don't have time to sort it out.

You're all gone.

Because it's been out of control since really FDR.

And they think that they're in charge of the world.

And it is the State Department, that has brought us these endless wars and everything else.

They've got to go. They all have to go.

So with that in mind, listen to the State Department spokesperson on the Hamas deal.

Listen to this.

GLENN: When it comes to the involvement of president-elect Trump's team is absolutely critical in getting this deal over the line.

And it's been critical. Because obviously, as I stand here today.

This administration's term in office will expire in ten days.

And one of the things we've always said about this deal.

When you get to stage one, to stage two. That the United States, Egypt and be Qatar. Are the guarantors of this deal. And Egypt and Qatar will push Hamas to stay at the bargaining table. And to get from stage one to stage two.

And the United States will push Israel to stay at the bargaining table from phase one to phase two.

Obviously, those are promises we cannot make on behalf of the United States for any longer than the next five days.

And so it's critical that all of the parties to the agreement and the other mediators see that when the United States is in the room, making commitments. Those are lasting commitments. That extend beyond this administration. Into the next one.

GLENN: Uh-huh. So stop.

They're long-standing commitments. They will go long past the five days.

Well, they must even make it to day two. Overnight, this deal has started to fall apart.

And it started to fall apart with Benjamin Netanyahu. And the Israelis.

Okay.

Well, wait. I thought that's the critical role that Donald Trump was playing. That's what he just said.

We can -- we can bring Benjamin Netanyahu, and Israel to the table. Well, Benjamin Netanyahu did not go to the table, under Biden.

Didn't come to the table. Now, Hamas didn't come to the table because of Biden.

This has all happened, because Donald Trump has said this. Cut one.

VOICE: I think they heard him loud and clear.

It will get done by the inaugural.

VOICE: Before we take office.

VOICE: And don't release the hostages.

VOICE: Do you have to define it for you.

All hell will break out. If those hostages aren't back. I don't want to hurt your negotiation.

If they're not back by the time I get into office. All hell will break out, in the Middle East.

And it will not be good for Hamas.

GLENN: Okay!

So wait. How is Donald Trump responsible for a deal that looks like it's really good for Hamas.

And not good for Israel.

All hell will break loose.

This is the only reason why they're talking about this. And Joe Biden, eager to make a deal.

Made a deal that's good for Hamas, not Israel. So that's falling apart right now.

STU: Deal is falling apart?

GLENN: Yeah. Fell apart overnight. It looks like, it's not holding.

STU: Well, I mean, because it is -- obviously has some good in it for Israel.

And potentially America, right? Potentially American hostages released.

GLENN: But also potentially --

STU: We don't know. It's something like 33 for a thousand. Something -- as always with these deals.

It heavily favors Hamas.

GLENN: Correct.

It leaves Hamas in power.

All kinds of things bad for Israel.

STU: It does not end the war. It's a cease-fire. Okay.

That's important.

GLENN: Yeah. A cease-fire.

That's important.

So Donald Trump is the reason why something will happen. Okay?

Donald Trump has not been able to make a deal. Get them to the table.

He can make a deal. But it's a Biden deal. A bad deal.

He can make that deal with them right now. Because they all know, daddy is coming home.

We better stop our bickering.

Because daddy is going to solve it. And I'm not sure we're going to like the solution coming from daddy.

So they try to get into a deal.

Notice, if the Israelis are the ones pulling out, you don't think Benjamin Netanyahu is just springing that on Donald Trump.

He's not just like -- Donald Trump is not getting up today and going, wait. The deal fell apart. Benjamin Netanyahu and the Knesset doesn't want to deal with that? What happened? Uh-uh. They were on the phone with him, so he knows that.

No matter what the White House tries to do and rope him in, this is not his deal. It's moving because of him. But that's all.

And I take him seriously when he said -- I mean, let's talk about this in a week. Let's talk about this next Friday. Where will this story be next Friday?

Because I don't think it will be here!

You'll notice, he said, make a deal before I even get into office.

There's going to be a lot of talk with Hamas, on what exactly they have to do. And what the ramifications are.

Because I would not put it past Donald Trump, by Monday evening.

Drones, to be flying over Hamas.

He will -- he will release hell on them.

He is a guy, that keeps his word. Because he knows, if I don't, then I'm known as somebody who just bluffs.

And I'm not going to do that. Because that puts the United States. Into real trouble.

And he's been real clear on this, over and over and over again! Hell will be paid if you don't release the hostages, by the time I'm in office.

So we'll see, exactly what is coming on.

Female Veteran Says Pete Hegseth is RIGHT About Women in the Military

Congresswoman and Air Force veteran Anna Paulina Luna joins Glenn to clear up one of the Democrats' biggest lies about Trump’s Defense Secretary pick Pete Hegseth during his confirmation hearing: "Pete never said that he didn't want women to serve in the military. In fact, it's quite the opposite. But I have the same agreement in that there are certain roles that women SHOULD NOT be subjected to in the military." Plus, she discusses why she’s hopeful that the Trump administration will reveal the truth about UFOs and the mysterious New Jersey drones.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna from Florida. Welcome to the program. How are you?

ANNA: Hey, Glenn. Happy to be back on.

GLENN: Yeah, it's very good to talk to you. So you were in the Air Force?

ANNA: I was.

GLENN: And what did you do in the Air Force?
ANNA: I did air field management, and worked with actually my first installation, was the B-2 stealth bombers of flight plans, a lot of inspections, a lot of readings. Did not serve in combat.

However, I definitely have an opinion or two on women in combat.

GLENN: I would like to hear it.

ANNA: First of all, during the confirmation hearings. They were incredible.

And they were trying to walk them into these sound bites. The one thing I kept hearing from the Democrats was, they were taking his comments out of context, in regards to women in the military.

So Pete never said that he never wanted women to serve in the military. In fact, it's quite the opposite.

But I have the same agreement, in that there are certain rules that women should not be subjected to in the military. So in a lot of foreign countries, you will see there will be women-only sniper teams. And/or women-only teams that will see combat. Now, I preface this by saying, that there is a study that has been done. And shows that when women have been placed in harm's way. That the natural instinct for men was to protect that woman. And that's the right thing to do.

That's that, quote, unquote, toxic masculinity that the left tries to mess with all the time --

GLENN: That is human nature. We're born with that, but go ahead.

ANNA: Right?

And so when you have though, a woman that let's say, plays on a Special Forces team. They come under fire.

Hypothetically that woman gets hurt. Instead of focusing on the mission, as it would be, the men then would in turn, go to protect that woman.

And it could ultimately result in, A, more casualties, more people getting hurt, and then also jeopardize the success of the mission.

And so I think when we're looking at military policy as a whole, we need to take these things into consideration. But it's very easy because Pete is a white male. For them to try to demonize him and treat him as this anti-woman, you know, alcoholic womanizer, which is simply not the case.

Other thing, and the reason why I wanted to show my support for him. Was, look, Pete is a Christian. He has the Jerusalem cross tattooed on him.

That does not mean he's a Nazi. That does not mean he's a white nationalist. So what I've been telling reporters. If Pete was so anti-, you know, anti-minority.

Anti-, you know, anything to do what we stand for and value in this country, why would you have the same -- because they don't really have a response to us.

GLENN: Yeah. All right. So do you agree with him? Because I took from him yesterday, something else about the military. I have no problem with women in the military, with an exception of the natural order of things, where I think men -- I have to tell you, if -- if one of the guys was captured by, you know, al-Qaeda. I would do everything I can to make sure that one of the members of my team, you know, were safe. And I would do everything that we should do. However, it's different if I know that the woman member of our team, has just been captured.

I -- it takes on a different meaning to me. Because I know what's going to happen to her, in compared to Tom or Tim.

And I think that is a natural instinct, that you cannot get rid of. And you don't want to.

The second thing, that I think that Pete is talking about. And we saw this in the fire chief, in -- in Los Angeles.

Where she said, you know, I -- you know, I'll talk to people. They'll say, well, you can't lift my husband out of our burning house.

And her response was, well, you know, he got himself into a place he shouldn't be.

So why should I?

Okay. So that's ridiculous. As long as a woman can physically do exactly what is required of the male, then I don't have a problem with that. Do you agree with that?

ANNA: I would say, though, there's this aspect of psychology. And certain situations. Where I don't think women should be placed. So right now, what we're seeing, is -- you know, those are all great points, Glenn.

The military standards, currently. There are different standards for women and for men.

That's just a fact. But there are also different requirements for different jobs. Right?

If you can go in, for example, to be a fire firefighter, you're required to lift X amount, whether or not you're a man or a woman in the military.

But in that sense, I would say that, when you're talking about conditions where you're living in a field. When you're talking about conditions, when you know that there is going to be a psychological aspect and component. It doesn't mean that women aren't as good as men.

I think there's been cases, where women can be better snipers than men are.

Depending on what you're looking for job-wise.

What I will say, as far as my perspective is concerned.

I don't think women should be required to register for the draft.

I know that Senate Democrats were pushing that.

And I also think that women should not be placed in certain combat roles in the military.

GLENN: Agreed. Agreed. Agreed.

Let me switch topics with you.

You were one of the biggest advocates for the UAP. UFO disclosure.

Any updates on -- on that hearing, the updates on the New Jersey drones.

And were you able to get David Grusch into a skiff and get a classified briefing? And if so, what was your takeaway?

ANNA: So I was not able to get Grusch into a skiff. In fact, they were blocking that, by not re-activating his security clearance. And so I'm hopeful with the new incoming administration, especially because as of right now, you know, Marco Rubio led to his confirmation for Secretary of State.

GLENN: Yeah.

ANNA: And they have been in the Senate, one of the big advocates and supporters of looking into UAP's -- a/k/a, UFOs. And then everything else associated with that.

Now, what I will say, is that I've been grossly disappointed and disgusted by how the Biden administration handled what happened with the Chinese spy balloon, which to be clear is different than a UAP.

The fact is, some of these drones are likely tied to not just hobbyists. But probably more nefarious actors.

Even if we had that information, shared in the public. I don't believe that the Biden administration would have done that.

Because of how I saw, how they handled the drones.

In the United States. And collecting intelligence. Nonetheless.

It was a Chinese intelligence operation.

You know, I had one of my colleagues Van Drew, who actually made an admission on television, that it was adversarial drones. And then you saw the Intel community come out. But Van Drew would not just make something like that up.

So you're seeing kind of this rift occur with the intelligence community, and then people that do want the American people to simply know the case.

I think this is probably the topic of longer discussion. In regards to what a UAP is. What's interesting, Glenn. And I know you look at these things through a lens, as do I.

As a Christian, first and foremost. But what's interesting, when I was questioning Grusch.

I actually asked him, well, what would you consider, in so many words -- is this like a physical ST?

And he kept calling things inter-dimensional beings, if we're specifically referencing UAPs, and so I think that that just aligns in perspective, to think about this from.

I think there's a lot. You would have talked about this even ten years ago.

Your political career would have been over. People would have said you're a conspiracy theorist.

I can tell you, this is probably the number one question I get. No matter where I am at in the country, people come up. They appreciate it, because everyone is curious. So I'll leave you with that.

GLENN: So let me just -- let me just follow that here, just a little bit.

The inter-dimensional beings, that could be spiritual. That could be a quantum being. Any idea what he meant by that?

ANNA: You know, I actually tried to pull on his string. And he didn't want to go there.

And I can also tell you, when I was talking to him, with a group of other legislators on the phone, prior to the hearing.

That he did make the omission. That he was actually in fear of his life. And that something happened, where he tried to kill him.

So I don't know if that was associated. But he did not want to go into that any further.

And so based on my investigation. Based on what we're told in the hearing, I would say that it does not seem like it would be a good thing.

He gave me the impression. That this was nefarious.

So take it for what it's worth.

It's inter-dimensional.

I think quantum could be, you know,

GLENN: Right.

ANNA: We're on the same page there.

GLENN: So it is so bizarre that this kind of stuff is happening.

And we're not being told. Donald Trump said that he would talk about the drones. On Tuesday.

He said, give me a day, to get settled on office.

And he said, I'll find iota the drones. And I'll tell the American people.

If that's China. Should we know, the American people?

ANNA: I think it would be well within his wheelhouse.

And I think he wants the American people to start to trust their elected officials.

It goes to so much deeper than just have someone in the White House on your side. Right?

Because we know that -- and from what I've gathered, because remember, there's been bipartisan and bicameral meetings in the Senate, the House. And Democrats and Republicans have all been working on this together, to get some answers and information.

And there is a certain level of stovepiping that we've seen with information. And then also too, the aspect of, I as a sitting member of Congress. Who sits on oversight and foreign affairs, was denied access by a general at the Air Force base, to whom I responded. Who gives you the right and authority to tell a duly elected member and group of Congressmen, that they don't have access to a program that we write the damn checks for?

You have no authority to deny us access.

And so that conversation, probably not comfortable for that general.

GLENN: How did that end?

ANNA: Well, he left.

He actually got up in the middle of our meeting and went on TDY. Which any military member will tell you, never happened. He left the meeting.

He left the state.

He got up and left.

GLENN: Wow! Did you ever get an answer?

No. Representative Gaetz and Representative Burchett were also there to witness this.

I never seen that happen. And remember, I was in the military.

He literally got up and left in the middle of the meeting. Said he had orders in Georgia, and he never came back.

GLENN: Are you -- are you concerned at all about some of the conversations. We just saw another video from James O'Keefe.

Where he's talking to somebody who was -- I think he claimed to be in the FBI.

Said, he and others were meeting with generals. To make sure that they had a control on Donald Trump.

Are you -- are you confident at all, this time around, Donald Trump will be able to route that.

VOICE: Oh, most certainly.

And I will say, that has a lot to do with the confirmation of the Secretary of Defense.

You know, top down.

Last time president Trump was in office. I think there was a lot of trust in people, to do the right thing.

And then he realized that the Deep State was real.

And there were people running, regardless of whether he was a Republican. Or whether they're Republicans or not.

That they were working against his agenda. Because they didn't like what he stood for.

What we're finding, there is going to be a setup to go through these generals. That, A, discharge military members based on vaccinations. And boards.

The fact is, if you're a general and you're pushing wokeness ideologies.

Or you're trying to undermine subjective o the commander in chief, you have no place in the Department of Defense, period.

And so those people conspired, and I look forward to that. Because I can just tell you from a congressional perspective, Glenn. I actually had an amendment in the National Defense Authorization Act to remove DEI for military training.

And I have friends still in the military. So someone at Ramstein Air Base actually sent me an email of an officer there, that was directly undermining what we did. Congress has removed DEI.
So we're renaming it. Please, proceed with the training.

Guess what, that person is also going to be fired. And that's really how you're going to be at the DOD --

GLENN: Good. Good.

If you could hold for 60 seconds, I need to take a network break and come back. I want to ask you about Cuba. What the Biden administration just did. And also about Tulsi Gabbard. And how you feel about her and her nomination.

Back in just a second with Anna Paulina Luna, Representative from Florida.
