Mike Pompeo: Why ENDING the Deep State could ‘TAKE YEARS’

Mike Pompeo, who served as director of the CIA during President Trump’s time in the White House, has witnessed America’s Deep State firsthand. So, Pompeo knows exactly which steps must be taken to END it once and for all. In this clip, Pompeo joins Glenn to describe the best way to ‘unplug’ and ‘break down’ the Deep State — which exists not only in the State Department, he says, but in parts of the Justice Department, the Department of Education, and more, as well. He says fixing the system IS possible, but it could ‘take years.’ Plus, Pompeo gives his thoughts on Ukraine and Vladimir Putin, rumors about The Nord Stream Pipeline, and China’s spy balloon…

GLENN: Mike Pompeo. Mike, how are you, sir?

MIKE: Glenn, I'm great. How are you today?

GLENN: I'm really good. I've been looking forward to this. I hope we find time to sit down for a longer podcast.

MIKE: I promise you, I'll do it.

GLENN: All right. I have so many things for you. But I want to start off with something that is in your book, that I absolutely love.

When you met Kim Jong-un, in North Korea, the meeting began with Kim saying, what? To you?

MIKE: It was really quite something.

Easter weekend 2018, clandestine mission, Dark Knight. Met with Jim and Kim. Had one colleague with me, and the first thing it says to me. I walk in, there's lots of theater.

And we walk in, and he says, Mr. Director. I was CIA director at the time. He said, Mr. Director, I did not think you would come, since you've been trying to kill me.

Obviously through a translator. And I remember, Glenn, you'll appreciate this. I prepared for this. We studied.

What might he say? This was not on the bingo card.
(laughter)

MIKE: So I remember, I hear the translater. I pause for just a second. And I think, well, that's pretty tough. And I said, Mr. Chairman, you should know, I am still trying to kill you.

My colleague smiled. Andy, great guy. Smiled. And then the translation hits him. And he laughs too.

Which was very --

GLENN: Yeah. That's -- that's good when you're standing with a dictator that kills people, and he's on his turf.

MIKE: He knew it was tongue and cheek a little, in the same way that his barb at me was, but I think it also set the course for the relationship we built over the coming years.

GLENN: Right. Right.

How would you describe the American Deep State?

And did you see it in action?

And what is it, exactly?

MIKE: Oh, Glenn. It's -- yes, I saw it. It is real. One can describe it as the Deep State. Or the resistance. Here's how I came to understand it. Really as the State Department.

To be honest with you. It is a left of center. Left of left, perhaps. Left of center bureaucracy that is deeply of Washington, DC. Deeply establishment. And so when you have someone like President Trump or me, who says, both didn't work. We're going to try it a different way. We're going to take a little bit risk. We're going to defend America first. Oh, my gosh, Glenn. It was a mess. They resisted what we did. They undermined. They would leak memos. I saw memos in the press before they got to my desk, Glenn, so many times.

And this is problematic. Not because of me. It's problematic, because that's not what the Constitution requires. Or what our Founders thought about America. So the next president, it's going to take -- it's going to take a while. But this could be fixed.

GLENN: So how can a president come in, be elected? Because I'm concerned. I agree with term limits. But term limits, also, for people who are serving in Washington, DC, and all jobs, all levels, how do you -- how can you clean this up, without shutting it down, and, you know, did you unplug it and plug it back in?

That's pretty much what we have to do.

SPEAKER ONE: That's a great analogy. Yes, unplug it. You have to break it down. By the way, not just the State Department. Good parts of the Justice Department.

Most specialists, civil rights division. The entire Department of Education.

These are lost. And so, yes. The next president. There's two things. First, you have to get your team on the field.

One of the things we did not do is, we were two years into the administration. And we still had Obama people occupying political positions. That's just a failure.

And we have to get good at that. The conservative movement has to get good.

Just like we have to collect and harvest ballots, we have to get good about being fearless about terminating the bad guys and promoting the good good guys. And then second, big, team structures reforms inside these. And it will cost political capital, Glenn. I can see why a president would not do it, they have plenty of things. But this is a lasting change that one could make (?) how you -- we have three unions at the State Department, Glenn. Nobody even knows it. Right?

Every one of (?) collective argument agreement. You can't promote merit. You can't fire those who aren't on the team. This is a calamity. It is fixable. You put good cabinet members in. They hire the right folks. You can clean it up. It will take years, I'll be honest. Because you have (?) the talent that comes in, has to be American patriotic. Not aa part of the Washington establishment. But it is doable (?)

GLENN: I'm sure you know that I am one of the chief conspiracy theorists on the World Economic Forum and the Great Reset.

Do we have a lot of time? I mean, it is very concerning with tech, and the way it seems the entire entire West is throwing in their lot with very authoritarian style plan.

JEFF: I'm very concerned about it. (?) time is short. Not hours (?) heading down the direction. Glenn, you know this. Starts with the schools. Teach kids garbage. Teach kids crap. The parents don't (?) logic, reason, the things that -- right? The things that we know prevent us from being a liberal. A liberal society that has made America such an exceptional civilizational hero. We got to get it right. It is a collective -- it is in all of our big institutions. I was very worried. I was a soldier long time ago now. I'm worried about our military headed down that same path of forgetting what its mission is. That is an institution that is central to the -- culturally from&from a security perspective. (?) and when we get these things wrong. Hard to get back from.

GLENN: We're talking to Mike Pompeo, he has a book out, which is extraordinarily great and Frank. It's called never give an inch. (?) former secretary of state.

Let me -- let me ask you a couple of questions here: First of all, Ukraine.

I mean, I've done enough research on Ukraine, and the Biden administration. And the -- and the Obama administration. That is deeply corrupt.

I -- I don't mind, you know, aiding and praying for, and even helping privately, you know, people who want to be free.

But I'm very concerned where we're going on this. Because it -- it appears to me, everybody who is in charge, is like, yeah. Let's go. Let's go. We're going to war.

Touring with tanks being sent over, and offensive weaponry?

MIKE: Glenn, I actually do. But not for -- not for the -- the reason some have articulated. Your predicate is exactly spot-on. I talk about it in the book.

You're right. It's a pretty wide open document.

You bank me long enough. This is how I think. (?)

Not for the reasons often articulated. Ukraine has huge corruption problems. But my concern is about the American people.

We lost the -- you know, Vladimir Putin, didn't invade Europe on our watch. He took (?) he went at it again as soon as we left, under Biden. We cannot allow him to continue to Rome about Europe. The innocent (?) there's an American interest there.

It's not -- I think we can do this. He hasn't asked for our kids yet. (?) he's just asking him to provide him with tools and capabilities. That's the quickest way to bring this to a conclusion. (?) really dumb, that draws the whole world into this. Which is a real danger. And I spent a fair amount of time with Vladimir Putin. I'm more concerned about it, than others. I think he's not going to go quietly into the knight night. If we can (?) fight and die. That's something that matters to every American. And we ought to try to get it right there.

GLENN: So I -- Mike Lee spent a lot of time yesterday, looking at the Seymour Hersh article. And trying to track down. He's coming on the air in about an hour, to find out what he found.

He said initially, he was disturbed. Because he didn't believe it. But he also kind of did.

I mean, he didn't. He said, I hate to put words in his mouth. But he was like, these are the kinds of things that now, we do need to actually seriously question. Because these kinds of things could happen.

But he didn't think it was true.

As former CIA director, the Nord Stream pipeline, do you think we had anything to do with that at all?R

MIKE: Let me begin by saying, I don't know. (?) I don't have access to that kind of information any longer.

GLENN: But see, that's what Mike was saying. He was disturb does that he didn't know.

MIKE: Yeah. He should have access. These are the United States senators. He should have access.

I'm glad he will success it out. Figure out what happened there.

I will say this, Joe Biden would not (?) the chance he would blow up a pipeline, that belonged to the Germans, seems low to me.

GLENN: Okay. All right.

MIKE: It seems out of character.

GLENN: Good. Okay.

MIKE: But goodness, we should figure it out.

Look, I think it's more likely than not, that the Russians actually did this. I read the piece. There were a comments from Victoria new land (?) and from the president himself. They're kind of odd statements. So we should go figure it out. But my sense is, if I were to maybe take my own money. I think this was a Russian operation aimed at denying energy to what they thought would be a cold winner here. It just hasn't panned out.

GLENN: And the Chinese spy balloon. We spent (?) with a 40 million-dollar plane.

And then -- and then what are they saying in, oh. It was not a risk. Well, then, why did we shoot it down?

What is this?

MIKE: They've disassembled since the beginning. This was a spy operation (?) imagery pictures. Probably signals too. Trying to listen to what was going on. And they were also testing our air defenses. And finally, they were testing President Biden to see what he would do. Someone asked me yesterday. Would this have (?) under the Trump administration. And I think, yes. And I would have been the former secretary of state, very quickly.
(laughter)
So -- so -- and it was funny. Glenn, you remember. Oh, this happened. And we all came out and said, no. I guess we were all just smoking dope, right?

And the truth of the matter, we know they lied. Nobody knew about this before. This was a blunder on their watch. Not so much (?), but Xi Jinping is confident now, that he can push this president around.

That deterrence model we had, Glenn. That was so important to the American people.

When you lose that, you create space. What's the old southwest line. Feel free to move about the cabin. I think the bad guys are feeling pretty damn free to move about the cabin.

If you live (?) that creates an awful lot more risk.

GLENN: Is China the risk I think it is?

And is it -- how much of a role does the business dealings of the Biden administration, or Biden and his family, have to do with giving China a pass on so much?

SPEAKER ONE: Boy, I don't know if that's the motivation from their failure to confront this.

The greatest threat to the United States. The Chinese Communist Party. They could be -- we should get to the bottom of everything that's on that laptop.

To figure out where that leverage might be from the Chinese Communist Party. Not just President Biden. But lots of folks in his administration. Were doing lots of business in China. Before he came into office.

GLENN: I mean, Mitch McConnell is a big one too.

Mitch McConnell --

SPEAKER ONE: Totally not partisan. Got this right for America.

There's (?), but the yellow helmet and the blue helmet. This is protecting the United States. They're inside our (?) inside our universities. Massive spy (?) that I shut down.

And we just -- we let it go on for years. If we get the chance to do the podcast.

I would love to spend more time.

My fear (?) something that might happen in Taiwan or Japan or (?) it's what's happening inside the gates here. And every American should be aware of it. And we should protect ourselves. And we can -- we should be successful. I believe we will.

I see no evidence, this president is going to do that.

GLENN: Well, Mike, I appreciate your time.

(?) let's book some time on a podcast.

MIKE: We'll make it happen, Glenn Beck Program.

GLENN: God bless. You bet.

Former secretary of state, and former CIA director. And author of the Book, Never Give an Inch.

Mike Pompeo

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Jeffrey Epstein's SHOCKING connections to intelligence agencies | The Glenn Beck Podcast REPLAY

Journalist Whitney Webb has worked to uncover some of the most dangerous stories of our lifetime, and she joins Glenn to reveal just how eye-opening it’s been. Her new two-volume book, “One Nation Under Blackmail: The Sordid Union Between Intelligence and Crime that Gave Rise to Jeffrey Epstein,” examines Epstein’s elaborate network of corruption and power, from Bill Clinton to Ghislaine Maxwell and many more. Her research into transhumanism has given her a terrifying perspective on the World Economic Forum and tech elites, including Elon Musk. And she tells Glenn the dark truth about Biden’s push for electric vehicles that she noticed while living in Chile.

Watch Glenn Beck's FULL Interview with Whitney Webb HERE

$13.8 TRILLION in interest ALONE: Can America survive this debt bomb?

The United States is facing possibly the largest debt crisis in our history as our national debt rises faster and faster. Glenn Beck warns: is our bankruptcy inevitable? Plus, Glenn and Stu discuss the recent protest during an ICE raid on a farm in California.

GLENN: Now, here's another thing. And I will hit this once.

Because it's a little -- it's a little overwhelming.

But I just think you should know it.

Since the dead ceiling was raised on July 3rd. July 3rd.

The US debt is up $410 billion.

Just in the first two days.

Let me say that again.

We raised the debt ceiling. And the US debt goes up 410 billion, almost half of a trillion dollars in two days!

Now, this comes after the US Treasury ended extraordinary measures, raising the debt ceiling by 5 trillion.

We are in the midst of the US' largest crisis.

Largest one ever. Now, listen to this.

After hitting the debt limit of $36.1 trillion in January of 2025, Treasury began extraordinary measures to conserve cash. Last week, when Trump's big, beautiful bill was signed into law. The debt ceiling from 36.1 to $41.1 trillion. And what happened?

In two days, up 410 billion. Raised due to a technical process.

Now, Stu, I don't want to get all technical here. But I think that -- that the debt ceiling going up, and then us spending an additional $410 billion. I think that technical process. And, again, if I'm too wonky, maybe you can explain it, is out of control politicians that are just spending too much.

But maybe that's just me. Is that too technical. Is that too wonky, to get to?

STU: Yeah. You're in nerd world with that one, Glenn. People aren't going to understand it.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

So they were just -- they were just doing what you do, when you don't have the money. They were just moving bills around. And paying what they absolutely had to. Until the debt ceiling was raised.

And then when they did, they were like woo. Because we were completely out of money.

Now we can print some more. Now we're free to borrow a record 41.1 trillion dollars in debt.

Now, here's the part that kind of opens your eyes. To put this into perspective, at the start of 2020, the US had $23.2 trillion in at the time. In 2020, $23.2 trillion.

Where are we now?

Well, we just moved that debt ceiling up to 41 trillion, because we're at $36.1 trillion.

With the new limit, we will mark $17.9 trillion increase, since 2020. That's a 77 percent increase in our debt. Have you thought of it this way?

At our current pace, we will reach the new debt ceiling much sooner than expected.

The treasury posted a 316 billion-dollar deficit in May. That's the third largest in record.

For the first eight months of 2025, the budget gap hit $1.3 trillion. The third largest in history.

Over the last 12 months. The US borrowed 1.9 trillion.

Or 158 billion, every month.

That is half -- this is half of the May levels.

But let's take 158 billion to be conserve.

US current debt stands at 36.6.

We are 4.5 trillion below the limit now.

At our current pace, it will take us 28 months, to hit that limit.

STU: Jeez.

GLENN: In fact, the debt ceiling crisis. It looks like it will hit us now, every two years. The debt ceiling is hit faster than it can be moved. From June 2023 and October 2021, we're the last debt ceiling crisis. The US budget deficit has averaged 9 percent of GDP over the last five years.

But over the last 12 months, the budget gap has hit 7 percent of GDP. That is higher than during 2001, or any of the 1980 recessions.

We now spend 7.1 trillion dollars, 24 percent of our GDP. We have a spending problem.
That's our problem. We are issuing so much debt now, bond prices are falling. And yields are rising. What does that mean? It means, we're charging less, and we're paying out more in interest. That's not going to help us!

The US spent a record of $1.2 trillion on interest expense alone.

That's more than the total spending on defense. Medicaid, and the veterans program.

At our current pace, we're set to see US cost exceed $2 trillion within a matter of years!

Over the next ten years, the US is projected to pay $13.8 trillion just in interest.

For interest alone. This is not taxpayers. This is per person in the United States.

For interest alone, we are now on the hook for $40,500 per person, just for the interest!

This is four times Social Security cash deficit in the next ten years.

Five times the cost of 403 US weather and climate disasters. Since 1980.

403, weather and climate disasters.

It's the cost of 403 of those! Sorry.

It's the -- it's five times the cost of those, since 1980! I just wanted to -- I mean, just want to start there. Wake up to your situation.

People are arguing about all of the wrong things right now, and they are -- we think we are skating. And we think that this can last forever. It's not going to last forever, and then you add things on top of this.

Like, what is happening with -- with ICE?

I don't know if you saw the video of the protesters. Some protester that was firing some sort of a weapon, at a federal agent during the ICE raid at a farm in California. Let me play this. Cut two, please. This is the raid --

VOICE: Take a look at this video right here. It appears a protestor fired some kind of gun at federal agents. This happened this afternoon.

It was a really chaotic scene at the time.
A lot of smoking was being launched at the protesters. Again, it appears that a protestor fired back with that weapon.

It looks like he fired at least a couple of times. We've not heard about any agents being hurt.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: So we are entering a very violent. Very, very violent time. First of all, let me talk about this particular raid. This was at a legal pot farm!

Okay. I think we can probably in the past, just done an hour on that. You know, oh, it's a legal pot farm.

Okay. Forget about that. That's not a problem apparently anymore.

It's being tended, this legal pot farm is being tended by illegals. That are coming across the border.

Well, we don't want to hurt our farming community.

I don't think of our farming community, as pot farms. But maybe that's just me.

Again, why get -- why get down in those details?

STU: Yeah. Glenn, this is just an existential question here.

But is it a legal pot farm, if the workers are illegal?

GLENN: Stu. Stu, again, that would be hour two of any past show that we have ever done together.

STU: Okay. All right.

GLENN: All right. So they go in, and they're trying to bust the illegals.

All right. What happens? Well, there starts to be protests. These protests come.

They start firing at ICE.

ICE has to put tear gas down.

Now the illegals are running to save themselves.

But who is running amongst this crowd?

Apparently, a bunch of children.

Now, I suppose those legal pot farms are providing a good education for those kids.

You know, probably has a pot farm day care center for those kids. So they can be out of the fields. And of course not working for their parents. Because that would be underage labor. You wouldn't want that to happen in America.

You know, all these people that have these bleeding hearts. Like, oh, this is just so wrong.

You're not even thinking anymore.

You're not even thinking.

You just see a video where you have kids running with their parents. Children running from the fields of this pot farm.

What were they doing there?

Certainly, that wasn't underage labor, was that?

Because you would be against that.

Wouldn't you?

Or are you?

Or are you only against that, if it's white children?

I'm not sure. I'm confused.

So you have the underage children. And these bleeding hearts, who are saying, we have to let these people go.

We have to let them just do what they do!

Really? You mean work in the shadows?

You mean engage in possible child labor? Okay. Possibly making, what?

A dollar an hour. Yeah. No, no, no. That's really, really, really good.

Then let's just let these protesters, and they're not protesters.

They are terrorists now.

We just let these terrorists get away with firing guns at our -- at our ICE agents. Things are changing in America. Let's just look at the violence, just in the last couple of weeks.

You have the July 4th ICE ambush, which is what?

ICE 25 miles outside of the city of Dallas. They have a detention center.

A coordinated well-planned attack.

Guy is covered in black. You know, in -- in military gear. They come and they start shooting fireworks at the detention center. Then a few of them break off, and they start spray painting the cars. Which brings unarmed ICE agents out of the building, to try to stop them from defacing the -- the cars.

They're unarmed. Well, this group has snipers in the woods. Hiding in the woods.

As soon as those unarmed agents come out, they start shooting them. Shot one of them in the neck. Thank God, he's still alive. What do you call that?

What do you call that? A Revolutionary War. Terrorism. It's certainly not a peaceful protest. Neither was it yesterday.

And, meanwhile, we have Congressmen who are actually trying to pass a bill in Congress right now, saying that the ICE members can't wear masks.

Well, you know what, when your bad guys stop wearing masks. When your people who are on the -- on the college campuses stop wearing masks, maybe we can live in a community and live in a society where our police officers don't have to wear masks.

Don't give me this. That's gets appear zero stuff.

By the way, the gestapo never wore masks.

They didn't care.

This is the kind of stuff that you see in the third world countries.

You mean like riots on the streets?

Yeah. It's stuff you see in third world countries. And you're dragging us into a third world country.

And, you know what, it's just -- it's -- it's time!

It's time. It's just time to say, enough is enough. And I'm not saying take extraordinary measures.

I'm saying, can our US government, our FBI, our department of justice stop acting like every Bond villain I've ever seen.

And here's what I mean by that. It's like you take these guys off the street, and then you strap them on to a table. And you say, the laser is going to cut your head in half.

No. It's not going to. We all know it's not going to.

Can we stop acting like Bond villains? Can we actually take care of the problem?

Actually arrest these people. Try them. And put them in jail.

We need to start setting a few examples. Otherwise, this is going to ton spiral out of control.

Will the Deep State let former CIA director John Brennan go to JAIL?

The FBI has opened a criminal investigation against former CIA Director John Brennan. But will Americans finally see justice for his alleged crimes and cover-ups? Or will the Deep State protect him? Former Department of Defense intelligence analyst Jason Buttrill joins Glenn Beck to give his prediction.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Let's bring in Jason Buttrill who is our chief researcher on the program.

You know, I'm reading a lot about John Brennan, and, you know, I think everybody knows he's a bad guy.

Well, everybody, but MSNBC and CNN.

They know he's a bad guy. But, you know, Jason, as I was starting to really refresh my memory. And look into Brennan, as we're -- it looks like maybe the Department of Justice is going to take him on.

And maybe prosecute him for some pretty bad perjury. I started looking into him, and I didn't realize. I had completely forgotten.

He was the guy who was the main guy that was pushing for torture, during the war.

I mean, he couldn't torture enough people.
And then he actually had a little group that would meet with the president, and they would develop the kill list. Do you remember, Stu?

Talking about the kill list, that Obama was doing? You know, every week. They developed a kill list. And everybody was like, what do you mean a kill list? Who is on the kill list?

It was John Brennan who was doing all of that stuff. He's a really, really dark dude. And, you know, hopefully we'll actually send him to jail for the things that he allegedly has done, besides, you know, develop the kill list. Jason, welcome to the program.

JASON: Hey, thanks, Glenn. I don't -- you know, it depends on -- I don't know. John Brennan has been one of the most slippery, I don't know how to describe him.

Whether it's like Bond villains. Or actually maybe it's more accurate to kill him like a Batman villain.

You remember like in Batman. You know if like the Joker is connected and remains in that comment or cartoon, or if it's the Penguin.

You know at the end of the comic, they're going to get away.

You will just see them in a slide. You know, all of a sudden in page where they slip away. They have to live again. You know, to the villain in another comic book.

GLENN: Oh, I know.

Yeah, I know.

And we are playing the role of a -- of a -- of a Bond villain as well, when it comes to justice.

Our DOJ is like, oh. And we have sharks that are going to eat you.

We have strapped you to this table. But they are going to start with your shoestrings. And then, we will leave. But before you know it, you will be dead in the belly of a shark. And they're not going to -- it's not going to kill them.

Just shoot them in the head. What are you doing?

Stop with the shark thing. That's what our DOJ is like. They just have these guys get away with murder.

JASON: Yeah. As you point out, with Brennan, it goes way, way back.

He was -- as you outlined. He was one of the guys that were right at the center of the enhanced interrogation, or torture controversy.

He -- he always said, hey, I was not in the enhanced interrogation techniques, air quoted, program.

But he was one of the guys, that was defending transferring some of the suspects, the country, where, you know, the rules are a lot less, you know, strict than they are here in the United States.

Where you can employ some of these.

Yeah. It goes beyond that.

He actually withdrew his name. You know, from being in the BCI director because of this.

But like any fat man villain or Bond villain, if he decides to run again, and he's confirmed by a massive amount. He just keeps on slipping through.

GLENN: Well, how does he get -- let me ask you: How do you think he gets this power?
Because he just keeps slipping through.

And, you know, if I remember right, it was Dianne Feinstein that -- that actually came at him, and said, you and the CIA are spying on the committee in -- in the Senate.

And they were investigating the torture, or enhanced interrogation. And he was knee-deep. Maybe neck-deep in that. And he said, we're not spying -- the CIA would never do that.

It's just unthinkable. Well, it turns out, yes. They were spying.

And then he never -- they never pushed for any kind of penalty on him.

He said, well, I'm going to find out, who did this.

And then they will pay.

Nobody paid. Nobody. Nothing. Does he have stuff on -- on members of the Senate and the House? Is that what -- is that what's happening here? How does he keep getting away with this?

Understanding John Brennan, in my opinion is understanding how the Deep State operates.

That example that you just put out there, with spying on the intelligence committee.

Deny. Deny. Deny.

Later it comes out, Glenn. That five CIA employees. Five, improperly accessed.

Five!

And then finally after a while. Like months later. He's apologizing to the Senate intelligence committee.

You know, all, but admitting this happened.

But no resignations.

No prosecutions. This goes on and on and on.

STU: Hang on.

And then on that same case, five years later, he writes his -- you know, his biography.

And he talks about how none of that happened.

So he admits it.

First, he denies it.

Then he's caught. Then he admits it.

He says, I will take care of it.

Nothing happens. Time goes by.

And then he writes a book. And then he goes, all of that. None of that happened.

That was all wrong. This guy is just --

JASON: Yeah. It really is.

And it's the same with the Steele dossier.

You know, did think it in front of Congress.

And then later, now we're coming out. Now we can see that he totally -- it appears like he was just completely lying.

Now we're trying to figure out what about he told John Durham. Because maybe they can get him for saying the same statements to John Durham. If they can, then maybe we can go after him.

But I really don't know.

I really don't know if the audience wants to hear this right now.

I don't know if it will make a difference.

This is how the Deep State operates.

To understand it, and understand John Brennan.

You understand, the executives don't control Deep State apparatuses. That's not how it works.

You have multiple people, and people that were under John Brennan and the CIA, are still there. They're still there.

The Deep State controls the Deep State apparatus, not the executive. Not Congress.

None of them. It is the shady individuals that continue to get away with things. We catch them in lies that never really matters.

I think if we could actually get some justice on this, that John Brennan could actually get -- you know, outed publicly, that he had in the past. This time, something actually happened. That I think that would be a huge step forward in getting rid of some of these people. That just linger. And secretly pull strings, while we're demanding I couldn't wait.

STU: So tell me what happened with the -- the ICA.

You know, the new report out, about the intelligence community assessment.

What is this story all about?

JASON: Yeah, it's a trade craft. The CIA trade craft review.

GLENN: What does that mean?

A trade craft review?

JASON: It's kind of a sexy way of juts saying, how did we operate, you know, from this time, to this time period?

GLENN: Okay.

JASON: And it points out, you know, how things -- like I said. It points out, in part of it. How things like the Steele dossier, ended up getting included into the, you know, whole Russia gate scandal.

And it looks very, very clear, that -- you know, that should not have -- unverified intelligence should not have gotten as far as the president's desk?

It should not have done it.

Even if it had, then it should have been heavily caveated showing, that this is just opposition research bullcrap.

Well, it didn't.

And if you look at it, very, very physically. It shows that if you are, let's say a Bond villain. Or a Batman villain. And you really, really want this damaging information, that's just opposition research, to somehow make it into the hull of the White House. And then knowing that that's going to get leaked down to the media.

They have perfected, you know, the CIA perfected this kind of operation. They know exactly what they're doing. Who would be responsible for doing it?

Why would they be doing it? And it would be for election interference.

And then that's allegedly what John Brennan was actually doing.

That's what it looks like he was doing.

Now we have the intelligence community assessment, showing that this is what happened. With that information and with now being able to go back to people like John Durham or looking at exactly what statements were made to him. So we can fit them into the statute of limitations. Or before it runs out.

GLENN: Which is in the middle of August.

Which really pisses me off. It's another thing like the -- the debt ceiling. Oh! You know, we've had all these years to fix it. But now we have to fix it tonight, and then it's never fixed.

I mean, I'm telling you, this is -- this is not going to be good!

You know, this -- this Epstein thing is not going to go away. It's just not going to go away.

And I'm sorry, but I think the president is on the wrong side on this.

And I'm not assigning any kind of reason for it, but he wants it to just go away.

And I have my belief, I expressed them yesterday.

It's about Intel, again. But you can't keep stacking these things up. You just can't.

John Brennan is a known bad guy, Russiagate. You would think that Donald Trump would be all over this. Because it affected his life so much. This guy is a very, very bad guy.

And both sides of the aisle know it.

And for some reason, nobody can ever do anything about John Brennan. He's got to be investigated and prosecuted if that's where the evidence leads.

But you can't just walk -- if the statute of limitations runs out on this guy, I think -- I think you've got another chink in the armor. A big one!

JASON: Yeah. Yeah. And not just him. I mean, I would go a lot further and say, who were the people that were directly underneath him?

Who were his subordinates? Who were their subordinates?

How many people had knowledge of this?

What we're really talking about is how it operates.

This is how things happen, outside of the wishes of the president.

You know, the executive or even Congress.

This is how -- you know, this is how outside.

This is how justice and how operations work, you know, from people who are not elected.

People that we did not give a mandate to.

This is how this operates. You have to root out every single one of them.

Identify them.

Have them stand in front of justice and see if we can just finally start to will this thing away.

If we do not, then the future does not look great for what we want for this country.

GLENN: Oh, and it's everywhere.

You know, Kevin O'Conner. He's the White House physician for Biden. The testimony that he gave, well, fine. You know, give him -- give him immunity. Give him immunity.

I don't want to know about the private conversations, you know, about his health.

Although, I do think that is really important. We're talking about the president of the United States. He's not just a private citizen. He's property. You know, the president can't say -- if the Secret Service says, sir, you're not going into that room.

The president no longer has the right to say, I'm going into that room.

Sorry, while you're prosecute. It's almost F you're property of the United States of America. And control over your own person in many ways. I'm sorry. But, you know, the physician, client. Or physician patient confidential, I'm not sure that exists, when you're president of the United States.

But there's no reason why you shouldn't give this guy immunity, and then say, okay. Who said, what?

Were you ever told to lie?

I'm not sure you will get the truth out of this guy. Because he is a -- he is a Biden guy, through and through. But people should start going to jail on that.

I'm so sick and tired of these investigations, that start to show promise and then nothing happens. Nothing.

It's been 20 years of investigations, and no one goes to jail.

It's been 20 years of riots on the streets. You know, people burning cities down. People, you know, looting stores. Destroying our economy.

Destroying the safety in our city. And no one goes to jail. President Trump has got to start sending some big, big messages. And he is on so many fronts.

But this one cannot escape his view.

He's got to be on this one.

All right. Jason, thank you very much.

Are fired USAID workers plotting REGIME CHANGE in America?!

Glenn Beck reviews a potentially terrifying story: some former USAID workers, who were fired under Trump, may be planning to use their color revolution tactics to “undermine Trump’s power” and plot regime change. Also, former Department of Defense intelligence analyst Jason Buttrill joins to discuss how the ambush at a Texas ICE detention facility looked eerily similar to what he saw while fighting in Afghanistan.
