How Obama & Hillary Clinton orchestrated Russiagate

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has released evidence that she says proves the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton campaign orchestrated the Russiagate hoax to frame President Trump as a Russian asset. Glenn Beck runs through the timeline and ties it to the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up and first Trump impeachment.

GLENN: So let's start it again, at the very beginning. Because you're not hearing this from anybody in the mainstream. Barack Obama is president 2016. Hillary Clinton is expected to be the winner. She then starts because it starts to get dicey. She's looking for anything she can do to smear Donald Trump.

She then starts to put together the crossfire hurricane file. The crossfire hurricane file is completely discredited.

I mean, there's nothing in it that was real. It shows that Donald Trump was with hookers in Russia. That Russia. He and Russia have a bank account that are pinging each other all the time.

Remember all of this? Okay? That all came from Hillary Clinton, through crossfire hurricane. Or I'm sorry.

Fusion GPS. Fusion GPS puts together the Steele dossier.

When she loses, she goes to the White House and Clapper who was part of all of this stuff with Hillary Clinton, goes to the White House. And Barack Obama does not want Donald Trump in.

He's got to find a way to stop Donald Trump. Hillary Clinton is saying, Russia stole the election.

Remember? We never say they stole the election. Yeah. You did. All about Donald Trump. He's not a legitimate president. He stole it, in collusion with Russia.

So Barack Obama is about to get a report. An assessment from the intelligence community. It's called an ICA. Intelligence Community Assessment. And it was about to say, there was no collusion with Russia. That Russia was not capable of hacking into anything. Or doing anything to throw our election.

All right. He stops that, before it's printed. He's alerted that it's coming in print form. He says, stop. Meet me in my office tomorrow.

Bring all the players in. I want to have a talk with you. He has a talk with them. I need this to read this way: That Russia did influence the election.

Then after he gets that from the -- he gets a new ICA, saying that, yes. They did.

Now, he can go to the FBI and say, they did. Here's this crossfire hurricane. Here's this Fusion GPS. I need to you look at this, from Christopher Steele.

Christopher Steele is known by the FBI. They fired this guy.

He was somebody who was a source. But he had so discredited himself. He no longer had been on the payroll of the FBI. He had been discredited by the FBI.

But for some reason, they overlooked that, to make sure that this went through. Clapper releases the Fusion GPS documents.

To the press. And now it's in the press. Now everybody is talking about it.

Now we have to do an investigation on this. As he orders the FBI -- I want you to look into this.

I mean, want you to look into this Fusion GPS thing. You know, Christopher Steele dossier.

That's when -- not Condoleezza, but Susan Rice writes on her last day: He didn't tell the FBI what to do. He was just making a suggestion, that they would do what they should do. And they normally always do.

All right. So there's the seed of all of this conspiracy. When Trump wins, panic sets in.

So they -- they've got to do something.

All right. So that's what happens. In the meantime, as they're burying all of this true information. And leaking information to the press. That brings everybody to Russia. There's another scandal that is happening.

And this one is in Ukraine. This scandal is on a totally different front. This is -- at the same time, all this stuff is happening, Hunter Biden is on the board of Burisma. Corrupt gas company, raking in millions of dollars with no experience.

And the Ukrainian prosecutor is investigating that company. And Joe Biden comes back and he brags about getting him fired by threatening to withhold a billion dollar USAID package. Hillary Clinton's peoples are there. Soros is there.

All the usual suspects are there. This is a State Department operation over in Ukraine.

This is USAID. All of this stuff is happening over in Ukraine.

As soon as Donald Trump calls to talk to the new Ukrainian president, and the Ukrainian president says, hey, we have some real problems with Russia. He says, fine, I will send that to you.

But I would really like your help in looking into all the corruption that was going on. Corruption that was perpetrated by whom?

The same exact players that were in President Obama's office, with all of this.

They panic. Now we really have to stop Donald Trump. So they complain -- they make up a story, that he had said, I am going to hold back your aid, unless you produce this evidence!

Pretty much, remember, they always do what they say we're doing. Pretty much exactly what Obama and his group had done in 2016, they're now accusing Trump of doing, in Ukraine. You follow? Does this make sense?

He's asking them, can you tell me what happened? And he's now impeached, over that.

Now, let that sink in. The same people who manufactured a Russia hoax, now impeach a sitting president for trying to expose the people who were involved in that corruption.

It's projection, it's insurance. And it's a cover-up that has to keep covering. But they weren't finished.

But before the 2020 election, all of a sudden, a Hunter laptop appears. And what do they say?

This is Russian disinformation. When it looks like somebody is going to print it, somebody is going to run with it. What do they do?

The same exact people in the FBI and intelligence community, go to the social media companies. And say, this is a Russia hoax.

And then how many -- how many former intelligence officers sign that letter.

Who put that letter together?

Clapper, the same guy that was in the original meeting where Suzanne rice says, nothing weird happened here.

And Clapper puts that together, and says, this is all a hoax. So now, they're covering again!

All the emails. All the contracts. All the corruption.

Same cast of intelligence officials. Sign that public letter. This is all Russian disinformation.

Another lie. Another operation. And, again, the press continues to listen to these people, like Clapper, who is now, I think on a payroll of one of these companies. You know, as a press commentator.

Then what happens?

Then you have president Obama. Sorry, President Biden winning.

He wins.

But then what happens?

You've got to take Trump out.

So you have January 6th.

And, yes. It was chaotic.

Yes, people acted shamefully.

Some of these were real anarchists. I don't know what their political belief was.

But some of them were anarchists. But there's some questions about January 6th.

Where is the pipe bomb?

Where is the pipe bomber?

There were two pipe bombs.

One of them almost killed the -- the vice president.

Why was she moved from the capital, to the DNC headquarters, where the pipe bomb was?

Why did that happen? How did all of a sudden, every single record from the Secret Service, just disappeared. All their phone records. All the records of why she was moved. All of that, just gone. It just disappeared. It happens, you know. Why couldn't we get -- there was no camera on the pipe bomb and who placed that pipe bomb.

Why? The camera was aimed at the same place, for at least six months. Then right before this happens, it's moved in another direction. Right after they find the pipe bomb, it's moved back into that direction.

Why?

Why -- why did they never look for the scaffold man?

The guy who was up on the scaffolding, directing the crowd what to do.

We don't even know what to do. We don't know his name.

How about Ray Epps?

How about people from the FBI and the intelligence community, that said, there were no FBI agents on the ground that day.

There were no CIA or FBI operatives on the ground.

Then it was, we don't know if there were any.

And then, once they lose this election, we find out, there were 25 of them, on the ground. Why?

Why did the surveillance tapes, that were held back, suddenly contradict the sworn testimony of the hero cop?

He wasn't even in the part of the building he said he was in!

But nobody covered that.

We did. Same cast of characters involved in that.

A chance to do to Trump, what they failed to do with Clinton and Obama.

What they failed to do under Schiff, and impeachment.

Now they're trying to get him with January 6th.

But that doesn't hold. So now what do they do?

Now, the same group of people, the same whys, in many cases.

They decide, they are going to prosecute Donald Trump. And they are going to try to get him thrown into jail.

Find him guilty of a crime. Any crime.

You know, to protect democracy.

It's going to stop Hitler. But listen to what these people have done. They lied to a FISA court.

They tried to evidence.

And then testified at a FISA court. Which violates your -- your rights as an American citizen.

They then falsified intelligence.

They spied on a campaign.

Illegally.

They framed a sitting president.

Not once. Not twice. Counting still, three times? They silenced the entire laptop story.

They controlled the press. They opened our borders, while lying about the effects and the causes. Remember, she was going on to a fact-finding mission. To find out, what was causing all these people.

They knew what was causing them.

It was their own NGOs that they were paying through government funds to bring all those people in!

They never told you that. In fact, they lied about it.

Putting people up in hotels. That's ridiculous.

That's exactly what they did.

Then they lied about their involvement in bringing them across the borders.

They lied about the Medicare, going to the illegals, that were just finding out now.

The same people who told you MS-13 gangs and gangs from Venezuela, were not happening. Or they were not dangerous.

They were racist tropes.

The same people that let terrorists. And terror cells into our country.

And then sent the exact same people back to the press, to tell us that our borders were secure.

And then finally, lied about the president's mental fitness. They used the auto-pen to pardon, all or some of those involved in all of this.

Then when Biden was found and seen to be incompetent, he wasn't removed from office. He was just removed from election. No one asked any questions. The same people. Clapper. Rice. Brennan. Obama.

And then Obama and the Klan decided to run Kamala Harris.

They decided that. Not the people.

They decided to run him. Or run her.

And, again, no questions were asked.

The press even went from, she's the absolute worse, to two days later.

She is the savior of our republic.

And now, these same people are claiming their Fifth Amendment rights, when asked a simple question.

When did you know?

Did you know the president was incompetent?

That's what this is about.

This is about the biggest conspiracy -- this is about the Deep State.

If you think the Epstein thing was big, you're never going to get the Epstein.

You'll never get the truth of the Epstein, until this is stopped.

This is the entire narrative of the last ten years. And a cabal of maybe ten to 20 people, that have orchestrated all of it.

That's why it's on page A15, and not even found on the Washington Post today. This is massive!

THIS is what the media should show you from Gaza

Hamas has released footage of a starving hostage who says he’s digging his own grave… so, where is the media outrage? Glenn Beck reviews the photos, which look eerily like they were taken at Auschwitz during the Holocaust. Plus, he reviews the story of an East Jerusalem resident who found a way to give aid to the Gazan people while bypassing Hamas and private contractors, who have turned hunger into “a business.”

GLENN: Now, I don't know if you saw the living skeleton hostage, the video that came out on Friday. Of the Hamas hostage.

It is -- it's really sick. I've only seen the pictures. I haven't seen the video.

But the pictures of this guy, who was buff. And really healthy looking. I mean, he looked really -- like he was really in shape.

He was out at the -- you know, at the concert, there in -- there in Israel.

And at the concert, he's one of the guys that was grabbed by Hamas.

They released a five-minute clip of him.
He's 24 years old. He's in a tunnel, he's standing in this tunnel with a ceiling as high as he is. They show him crossing off dates on a calendar, and digging a grave. He says, I haven't seen for a few days in a row. And if you look at him, he's nothing, but skin and bones.

I haven't seen a Jewish person look like this, since the Holocaust.

I mean, that is the image that I think -- that Hamas is trying to send to the world.

Because I think they're proud of all of this. In the middle of the video, a person behind the camera hands them a can of beans. And David said, this can is for two days. This whole can is for two days, so I don't die. This is the grave that I think I'll be buried in. Time is running out.

This is the deliberate starvation, of this hostage.

And you would say, well, the kids are starving. Now I -- let me tell you another story. I want to read this one verbatim.

When much of the world had written off Northern Gaza as unreachable, 30-year-old east Jerusalem resident, Sara Awatta and her team, carved out a lifeline. Under the umbrella of Mena Aid, a regional partner coalition operating through the multi-faith alliance and in coordination with Israeli authorities, she built a system, that moved hundreds of trucks of food and supplies into Gaza bypassing Hamas and private contractors, who had turned hunger into a business.

Did you catch that line? Bypassing Hamas and private contractors, who had turned hunger into a business. More than 100,000 families have been fed.

The cost? Her own safety.

Quote, I never imagined, that I would be creating safe, independent, humanitarian route, would become the reason my life might end, said Sara.

After delivering 346 trucks of aid, between September '24 and February '25, we have reached 100,622 families. We decided to scale up distribution on June 30th, at a time when no one was able to get anything into Gaza because of looting, chaos, and multiple layers of obstruction on the ground.

Operating through Mena Aid, her team designed an alternative route to deliver food and essential supplies.

In Israel, a trusted logistics company transported the goods from the Port of Ashdod to the Curam Shalome (phonetic) and Zitkum (phonetic) crossings. Inside Gaza, another logistics partner handled the transport, while her staff, coordinating to realtime with Israel shadowed every shipment.

Once the aid crosses into Gaza, it's picked up by another trusted logistics partner.

Our teams are present, during the off-loading, and accompany the aid from the crossing to secure warehouses. Inside the warehouses, we begin distribution immediately, aiming to deliver everything the same day. And at most, within two to three days.

Nothing is allowed to sit idle.

That level of control, allowed them to achieve what few others could, reaching northern Gaza where people had not seen a stable supply of food for months.

Her breakthrough exposed a darker reality.
An economy where hunger itself has become a business.
Now, this is reporting. That she says, quote, there's a lot of private sector businessmen.

Some associated with Hamas. And other political groups.

By the way, this is not somebody who lives in the Jewish quarter of Israel.

She's living in the Islamic quarter of Jerusalem.

They tried to use -- they try to use aid to make millions of dollars.

Because there's such a shortage of goods, and prices are so high.

Some steal aid, and sell it in the market.

Others try to take over the supply route, so they can resell it. Her team's success, threatened by those who profit from scarcity.

By flooding the market with free goods, they not only fed families, but also drove down the inflated prices charged for basics like sugar and flour.

If there's no sugar in Gaza, and we bring it in for free. They can't keep selling it at outrageous prices. So we became their problem.

Israeli authorities also tried to cut off these private sector schemes, by shutting down the routes that allowed commercial profiteering. Listen to that. Did you -- have you heard anywhere, New York Times?

While this helped curb some corruption, it also made the remaining humanitarian channels, more dangerous. The private sector was blocked. And so those who lost their profits, started trying harder to threaten and infiltrate the humanitarian route.

They couldn't control it. So they tried to break it, and me. The attacks on her came quickly.

I began receiving death threats, not just from Gaza, but from the West Bank. Heartbreakingly, some came from people I once trusted. One of the most painful betrayals come from someone close to her. She said, I even discovered I was in a relationship full of lies. That person was part of a game, that wanted to exploit the aid operation, and he tried to use me too.

But I stood firm. I made sure he and people like him never got near it.

And now my life is at risk. Because I refuse to let the private sector hijack aid for commercial gain, or let political actors bend it to serve their goals.

The families she helps, are the reason she refuses to quit, she said.

We've created distribution model, based on verified beneficiary lists, using ID checks to ensure fair and dignified access to food. People stood in line calmly, organized, and even in impossible conditions. That's something the media just doesn't show.

The dignity and patience of the people.

Now, why isn't everyone covering this woman?

I want to get this woman on the phone, if possible. I want to talk to this woman. I would feel very comfortable in helping raising money for her. She's somebody who understands that there is a problem.

That's the only reason why people are not saying, hey, we can't -- we can only do so much with the food thing in Gaza. Because it's hijacked. It's hijacked, and used for political purposes. Do you think the Hamas fighters look like the guy in the tunnel?

No, of course not. Absolutely not. Why?

Because they have the food.

They're only giving it to people, they want to give it to. They're controlling everything.

They're -- they're -- honestly, Hamas, they're animals. They're animals.

But I don't have a problem with people from Gaza. Children. Women.

Now, I don't know if they're part of Hamas or what.

But, I mean, I don't mind helping feed them, if the food is actually being distributed.

But it hasn't been.

This woman seems to be distributing the food.

Carving out a lifeline. And risking her life to do it.

Thank you, Fox news, for bringing this story to my attention.

It's fabulous!

43-year-old prediction proves how WRONG the media is

Glenn and Stu review a 43-year-old prediction from CBS’ Dan Rather, where he claimed that much of Florida would be underwater soon due to global warming. Plus, they reveal the reason we KNOW the global elites don’t really fear climate change.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: All right. This is not going to age well.

It's something that should have been said to Dan Rather about 43 years ago. Stu just found this video.

STU: Yeah, it kind of went viral over the weekend, and I just happened to notice it. And it was just a callback.

It's interesting to always look back at what people were saying, the people you were supposed to understanded and trust had been -- the evidence about what could go on in the future.

They outline many, many times, what they believed is going to happen. And every once in a while, they are a little too specific. Like, they get into specifics. If you're going to make claims of future doom, the appropriate way, if you want to maintain your -- you know, save face if things go wrong.

Is to kind of keep it general and vague.

Which a lot of times they'll do in the global warming world.

They will say really bad things are coming.

And they won't be particularly specific.

Just general horror is around the corner.

GLENN: Right. And they will do it within 100 years. And you'll see the beginning of his in 100 years. So all of us will be dead.

STU: Yeah, so Dan Rather -- this is back in the '80s, forty-three years ago, talking about, what was around the corner here with new evidence from scientists, and look out for what's coming.

VOICE: Concerned about rising temperatures on planet earth, heated up a hearing here in Washington today.

For years, scientists have theorized about the dangers of the so-called greenhouse effect, the warming of the earth's atmosphere, due to the burning of coal and oil. And in recent months, as David Cowan reports, research has uncovered facts to support that theory.

STU: Oh.

VOICE: Many scientists claim that the temperature of the earth's atmosphere has been rising over the past 100 years. That the great sheets of pack ice in Antarctica are melting at a much more rapid rate than previously. Finally, that the sea level has been rising with increasing swiftness over the past 40 years.

If these scientists are correct, about 25 percent of Florida would be flooded, along with low-lying areas all over the world.

Climate changes could produce widespread destruction of agriculture.

The American farm belt might be too dry, and the weed and corn crops would have to move to Canada. Scientists blame the odorless, colorless, carbon dioxide gas for these potentially dangerous changes around the planet. It is the greenhouse effect. The gas allows sunlight to filter down and warm the earth.

But like the glass of a greenhouse, the carbon dioxide tends to trap heat so that it cannot rise into space.

STU: Oh, no. Oh, no.

GLENN: The scientists maintain that the coal, oil, and gas that we've been burning for 100 years have produced more and more carbon dioxide, and helped overheat the earth.

Now, some political leaders endorse the demands for more CO2 monitoring stations like this one in Hawaii.

STU: By the way, the politician was Al Gore in 1982. Making these claims.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: So 25 percent of Florida, underwater. Glenn, I don't know if you could look around.

GLENN: We laugh, because it showed the map of the United States, and then it showed the map of Florida.

And Florida was just like this little stick that came out of the bottom. It's ridiculous. It was like America had a bike stand all of a sudden. Just ridiculous.

STU: Yeah. Basically, only if you were in Central Florida, would you have any civilization left. Now, you see, we would not have any agriculture in our country. All of it would have to go to Canada, which you might know. Consider we have been talking a lot about international trade lately, we actually have -- we produce a heck of a lot when it comes to agriculture here in this country.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: All of these claims, of course, didn't come true.

In fact, the coastline of Florida remains one of the best places to buy a home, in the country.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

STU: Most expensive places to buy a home in the country.

People are moving to Florida by the millions.

GLENN: You know, if global warming was true. And the coastlines were going away. No bank, and no insurance company in the world, would underwrite a loan.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Nobody. Nobody would.

Why would you write a 25-year-old mortgage on a house, that if in 25 years, it would be 10 feet underwater. That would be the dumbest thing you could ever do.

Why would you do it?

Because they know.

You know, money doesn't talk, it screams.

And when money is still says, no. Go ahead. Build their 25-year loan. You know this is a bunch of bullcrap. It's just bullcrap.

STU: Yeah. These aren't just small investments.

30 years after this Dan Rather report.

You wrote a book. A best-seller for a while. Called An Inconvenient Book. There was a chapter about global warming. It wasn't all about Al Gore's -- it wasn't a parody of Al Gore's book. But that was the first chapter in the book. The picture that was taken for the first page of that was a picture of the Miami skyline. Which is -- you know, back -- this is 2006ish, maybe.

And it's just flooded with cranes. All you see is cranes all over the entire skyline.

There's so much destruction going on in Miami. You can't believe it.

Of course, a couple years ago after that. 2008. There was a collapse. We've had COVID in between there.

And in between this entire period, there have been multiple additional construction moves in Miami.

The picture that is in that book. It's so outdated. There's double and triple the amount of skyscrapers that have been built in this area.

GLENN: No.

It's underwater.

STU: Yeah. If it was going to be underwater.

If people actually believed it was going to be underwater, there's no way they would be investigating this type of money into developing Miami and other coastline communities.

It would make no sense.

They all know this isn't true. Or they believe that humanity would come up a solution to it. Right?

Which is also a real possibility.

Like, there are times where there have been -- there are a lot of areas that have problems with flooding. That have generally speaking, been controlled because of human innovation.

This is usually what happens in these situations. So even if they're right. I mean, I don't think 25 percent of Florida has any chance of being underwater.

But even if this -- that problem gets worse, and sea levels do rise a few more inches than expected. Humanity typically has a way of dealing with that.

Did Trump just SLAP Fed Chair Jerome Powell into submission?

President Trump recently visited the Federal Reserve’s headquarters, where they’re spending a lot of taxpayer money on renovations – and Trump let Fed Chair Jerome Powell know he doesn’t approve! Glenn Beck analyzes how Trump used old school power dynamics – including giving Powell a slap on the back – as a negotiation tactic to hopefully get the Fed to lower interest rates.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Did you watch Powell and Donald Trump?

STU: Yeah. Yes.

It was -- it was a fun -- it was a fun moment, I felt like.

GLENN: Let me play you just a clip, yesterday.

Donald Trump went to the federal research, first time, I think in two decades that the fed -- that the president has made an official visit to the Federal Reserve.

STU: Yeah. It was George W. Bush, right?

GLENN: Yeah. So he comes in, and he's getting a tour in hard hats.

Throughout the Federal Reserve. Because they're making a trillion and a half dollar renovation of the Federal Reserve.

Trillion and a half dollars.

STU: Not trillion and a half.

GLENN: No. I'm sorry. Trillion and a half.

STU: Because that would be --

GLENN: But billion does not sound like a lot anymore.

Does it? So a billion and a half renovation.

So you know, Donald Trump said yesterday. That he redid the old post office. And made it into a really nice hotel.

And remember, bathrooms and kitchens are the most expensive.

It had like 200 marble slab bathrooms in it.

For 200 million.

So this is quite the renovation. That the Federal Reserve is doing. On your tax dollar.

STU: You can complain.

You might say, Donald Trump. All the people in the media.

He doesn't know enough about this. He doesn't know enough about that.

He knows enough about this.

Anyone who knows enough about renovating a building.

GLENN: Yeah. So listen here's the back and forth between Trump and Powell.

DONALD: It looks like it's about 3.1 million. It went a little bit, or a lot.

So 2.7. You know, 3.1.

And it just came out.

GLENN: So he takes out. No, that's what it is. And he takes out a sheet.

Like, here, Powell, here it is.

DONALD: Yes.

GLENN: Awkward.

DONALD: You're including the renovation.

VOICE: You just added a third building. That's a third building.

DONALD: It's a building being built.

VOICE: It was built five years ago. More than five years ago.

DONALD: Part of the overall work --
so take a look, you'll see what's happening.

And it's got a long way. You expect any more additional --

VOICE: Don't expect them. We're ready for them.

GLENN: We're ready for them. With our tax dollars, okay?

STU: It's an amazing clip for 100 different reasons.

GLENN: Yeah. Right. And when they first met, I don't know. Do we have the video of him just being slapped on the back?

Look at this. Watch.

DONALD: He has a long way to go.

VOICE: Are there things that they would say to you today, that would make you back off some of the earlier things?

DONALD: Well, I would them to lower interest rates.

GLENN: Huh?

Okay. This is Donald Trump. This is the way -- that visit was all about intimidation. Okay? The slapping on the back, the aggressive handshakes that he gives. Okay? I mean, that's the guy that he is.

And it's not -- it's just the guy he is, and he dominates a room.

You walk into any room with Donald Trump. Even before he's president. He controls the room.

He just does. He's a guy who just walks in, and all the oxygen goes right to him. It's an amazing thing to watch.

STU: Yeah, these are old-school power dynamics. Right?

GLENN: Yes, but they work. They work.

STU: They work. Because you watch that clip. There's no reason to have that moment in front of cameras.

GLENN: Nope!

STU: There's -- that was a moment -- correct me if you think I'm wrong.

GLENN: And planned. Planned.

STU: Do you think it was planned?

GLENN: Absolutely.

STU: Number one, he does it in front of cameras. He's saying basically, there's a massive cost overrun by the guy he's standing next to, in front of cameras. Which would be an embarrassing moment for this guy in theory.

Then he also has a letter in his jacket to pull out, when he says, no. That's not happening.

He pulls that out.

GLENN: He knows that's coming.

STU: Now, look, the building was finished five years ago.

GLENN: Yeah. But what his point was. You're right.

You're right.

His point was, this is part of your renovation.

STU: Right. That's not true.

It's not a new cost overrun. The way he's presenting it. But he's doing that intentionally.

Because it's old-school power dynamics, right? Because this seems to be something that Trump thinks about a lot for a lot of different reasons.

GLENN: You think?

STU: Well.

GLENN: So let me show you what he did. What he's doing here is the same. What has he been saying about Powell?

STU: He's been saying, he needs to --

GLENN: Resign.

STU: He's dumb. He needs to resign.

GLENN: He's dumb.

STU: He's saying he's dumb. He's a dumb person in the Fed. He's not lowering interest rates.

GLENN: That tactic. The best example of that tactic is Little Rocket Man. Look at Little Rocket Man.

Yeah. Well, Little Rocket Man. Maybe I will just have to wipe him off the face of the earth.

And then what does he do?

He goes where no president has ever gone before to Little Rocket Man's space.

And sucks all the oxygen out of that room. Okay?

And stands -- this giant, standing next to little rocket man. Did you notice, how big Trump looked next to little Powell?

I mean, it was almost the same power dynamic. Okay?

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And Powell knows. Powell knows. He's -- Trump, I think is older than Powell.
And look at how young Trump looks next to Powell.

STU: He does look younger.

GLENN: So he's been saying, little rocket man. Little rocket man. Little rocket man.

He then goes to the place where little rocket man is. In this case, the Federal Reserve.

And then what happens?

What is he saying today?

You know, I -- I'm not going to fire Powell. Because I think he will do the right went.

I mean, we had a really nice meeting.

And, you know, while those cost overruns are important. I think he's got it under control.

I don't know if there's a reason to investigate.

STU: It gives him an out, basically.

GLENN: Gives him a complete out.

He has hit him hard, then he meets with him and hits him hard again in front of the press.

I can guarantee you, they had a delightful conversation behind.

And he's now -- we're now in that place, where it's lather, rinse, repeat. You don't repeat, if everything is -- your hair is clean. Right?

You don't have to do it a second time, if everything is fine.

So he'll do that. Lather, rinse. Am I going to repeat?

Do I have to repeat?

Because I'll repeat. We'll go back to lather. I just rinsed. I lathered up. Yesterday, we rinsed.

Are you -- are you clean enough now? Or do you need to repeat this cycle?

That's exactly what he's doing.

STU: And he's kind of giving him the message that, I'll make your life a living hell --

GLENN: And he's doing it in Powell's space.

There's something about doing it in someone else's space. Shows, you do not have fear.

STU: But he works on both sides of that, right? Because he does sometimes go into their space and do this type of thing.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: But also -- and this is -- because when I was watching this interaction. It reminded me of something you were talking about when you were in the White House.

Of the way he's designing the White House.

He's thinking about these old school power dynamics. Constantly, when he's designing what the White House is like.

GLENN: So he is -- because this really bothers me.

Because America is. We don't have palaces for our president.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Okay?

And he's putting gold everywhere.

And I didn't say to him, that, you know,, hey.

The gold thing.

You know, maybe you should cool your jets on that.

He brought it up to me. And he said, do you -- look at the gold.

I mean, this is beautiful. And this is like -- 24 karat gold.

Is that the most -- is that the best? 24 karat.

I can't remember, but it's the most expensive kind of gold. Okay? It's not like spray paint gold.

It's actual gold leaf. Really, really expensive. And he's paying for all of it.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: And he said, you like this.

I will go leaf -- basically, I will go -- I am thinking about gold leafing Melania soon. And I'm sitting there, and I'm thinking, this is not -- this is not a palace.

And he almost sensed this, I think from me.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: He said, you know, I know we don't have a palace, but everybody from foreign countries that comes in, they are around palaces.

They see power a certain way. And he said, so I want to make sure when they're sitting in here, they understand, this is the most powerful room in the world, in every language that they might speak.

STU: Hmm. Hmm.

GLENN: Okay? So he's doing all this to -- as a way to intimidate again.

And if you look at it.

You would think, United States is broke.

I can't believe they're leaving.

No. They're not.

He is!

So he's not only saying, this is the most powerful office.

But I'm putting gold all over it. Because I'm wealthy. And powerful.

Because I, unlike maybe you, Macron.

I wasn't in politics.

I went out and actually built giant buildings in the biggest city in the world.

Okay?

So he's, again, exercising a power dynamic.

And when you watch him, in those meetings, where, notice he has press conferences with these guys.

How do we usually announce big things with countries?

When their Prime Minister or their president comes over.

STU: We put them up as equals.

They each get one question. You know --

GLENN: Right. Back and forth.

STU: Yeah. Some --

GLENN: You get -- you get the president on one side of the room.

And the foreign president or leader on the other side of the room.

Back and forth. And they're equal.

And the flags are there.

Not with President Trump.

Very few are getting that.

They're all sitting down in his office. In that intimidating space.

And a gaggle comes in. And he says, hey. I want to introduce you. Here's the president of the Philippines. We're doing some great stuff.

We have this great deal. Blah, blah. And maybe the president of the Philippines will get one question.

Maybe. Maybe. So are you really the president of the Philippines?

STU: Is that really a country still?

GLENN: I didn't know that. So maybe he'll get one question.

But then that guy has to sit there uncomfortably, while the president is answering questions about the world, about the country.

STU: Elon Musk. Or whatever else is going on in his life.

GLENN: He has nothing to say, so he sits there as a secondary. That if we know is a negotiation tactic.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: Donald Trump people tonight think he thinks about this stuff.

They don't think he's a deep thinker.

Maybe because of his language. But I think his language is also a choice.

His language is a choice. One, I know he can -- I know he can -- I know he understands big words.

But he speaks the language of the common man, for a couple of reasons.

One, I believe that was the language he learned in construction with his father.

Because he had to start working at the bottom. You want to build a hotel, son?

Great. Then you need to know how the air-conditioning handlers work.

In fact, you will go down and work side by side, and you will help build them.

So he grew up in the business world, talking to those guys. That's why those guys love him. Because he speaks their language.

Also, have you noticed, Donald Trump has started to let the F bombs fly? Now, why would he do that? Why would he do that?

Did you see what Joe Rogan was just saying about Hunter Biden?

He was just saying, you know, the guy -- he doesn't care. He just uses the F bombs like everybody else does.

And that was endearing to Rogan and also the Atlantic.

That, you know, he just -- he doesn't care.

He just is who he is.

Well, Donald Trump is showing you a little bit more, who he is.

Where he wasn't, in 2016, 2017. 2018. 2019.

Now, he's speaking the language, because I believe our culture.

Not in a way I would like. But our culture is changing.

And he is adapting to it, as well.

The guy is brilliant.

I wish I could spend a month with him. Because I think I could write a book about Donald Trump. And how he thinks.

Just spending a day with him, a few weeks ago.

And hearing how he spoke about every piece of art in the White House.

He selected every piece of art, and where it should go.

And it was to clarify who he is, and what he wants to accomplish, remind him what his job is.

So all the way from his bedroom, all the way down to the oval.

The -- the art on the wall, is to remind him of who he is. And what he's doing.

If you're on a tour, you come in. And you see, Donald Trump on one wall. And he selected Barack Obama for the other wall.

George Bush doesn't even have a painting in a bathroom. He put Barack Obama there as a symbol of, we're a country that is split. But this house brings us all together.

Would anyone ever give him credit for thinking that way?

He's thinking about what the message is on the tour.

He's really brilliant. And I think that's why things are changed so rapidly.

Is because he's using -- he knows how it works now.

He knows the game he's playing.

He's learned it.

He's mastered it.

And now he's just executing one after another.

Check, check, check, check.

And look at the results in six months.

This weekend is officially six months in.

He's accomplished more than I think any other president, has accomplished, in maybe their full term. In six months.

Now, I would like to see it codified.

But if -- if he had a Senate and a House, that were actually doing the business of the people.

It would be codified.
