GLENN: America.

Our churches and our pulpits must wake up.

Six pro-lifers who were convicted of charges, related to the Face Act, earlier on Tuesday, gathered alongside their friends and family. Outside of the federal courthouse, in Nashville, Tennessee. To sing and pray just minutes after being found guilty.

The six -- I should give their name. Chet Gallagher of Tennessee.

Coleman Boyd of Mississippi. Heather Idoni of Michigan. Carl Zastro of Michigan. Paul Vaughn of Tennessee. And Dennis Green of Virginia.

They all face up to 10.5 years in prison, and fines worth 260,000 dollars, after being convicted of conspiracy, against the rights and violation of the face act. A federal law criminalizing the use of force or threats of force, that prevent someone from ascending into an abortion facility.

Let me just tell you something, I saw the video. There were no threats. And there was no force. They were standing on the side of the hallway. Praying!

Despite the steep punishment they face after the convictions.

The six remained in good spirits.

These are the kind of people, that will bring blessings from heaven.

These are the kinds of people, that you -- when all is said and done, the next generation goes, that person was a hero.

Despite the steep punishment they face after the conviction, the six remained in good spirits.

And proceeded to sing and pray outside of the Fred Thompson courthouse, immediately after the verdict was announced.

The jury composed of eight women and four men, took just under four hours to find all six defendants of all charges brought against them by the Biden administration.

They said, quote, this is just normal Christianity. We love Jesus. We take the hits. And then we win.


STU: Hmm.

GLENN: As he spoke to the crowd, many family members were fighting back tears. That it gathered outside the courthouse.

He urged those present to write letters to the convicted, including Idoni, who is being held in a Washington, DC, prison over a similar case.

The group sang hymns like Holy, Holy, Holy, All Is Well With My Soul, and Amazing Grace, and also read passages like Psalm 91.

This is in Nashville, Tennessee. While this is going on, somebody who I don't condone this at all. But somebody who chopped the head off of the devil statue, a Satan statue, is also being tried and convicted and going to prison.

Hmm. They say it was a hate speech. Or a hate -- a hate act. A hate crime.

Well, seeing that Satan is the father of all hatred, he was just following through. And just following Satan, by sharing his hatred, I guess.

We have got to wake up.

Our system has been so corrupted, because we have allowed it to be this way.

New York City countless men, Yousef Salaam, a member of the Central Park five was pulled over in Harlem by police on Friday. Just days ahead of council vote on legislation, that would bury police and paperwork, over low-level stops.

Salaam complained about the traffic stop, suggesting he had been pulled over without a reason, and that racial bias was a factor. However, the cop was wearing a body cam.

He -- apparently, he was stopped.

And you see on the body cam. He said, I don't even know why he was pulled over.

He said, instead of answering my question, the officer stated, we're done here.

And he proceeded to walk away. The fact the officer did not provide a rationale for the stop. The only legal stop at a level three reasonable suspicion, or higher for a vehicle stop. Calls into question how the NYPD justifies its stops of New Yorkers. And highlights the need for greater transparency, to ensure they're all constitutional.

Yeah. Unfortunately, for him. Why did the cops stop him.

Because he had an out of date license plate from a different state, that was three years out of step.

He had moved to New York, three years before, never changed it.

I don't know. You get stopped for that?

I would. Then when he was stopped.

Now, remember, this -- this guy said, you know, we know the danger that is out there, every time -- a single time a black man, in particular, gets behind the wheel of a car.

The other reason why the cop stopped him. Is because his windows were tinted so heavily. That it couldn't see the -- you want to stop for race.

He couldn't see through the window, to what the driver was.

When he approached the car. He said, could you roll down the back window please. Because a cop had been shot by somebody with tinted windows like that, in the backseat.

Then he looks in. No threats lurking behind.

He identifies himself. And Salaam interrupts him, saying, I'm council member, Salaam.

This district. District nine.

What did the cops say back to him?

See, this is where the racial bias really comes in.

He said, oh, okay. Have a good one. You're working, right?

Yeah. Take care, sir.

That's what happened.

If this guy stays on the council in New York City, write it off.

If you can get away with besmirching, and probably would have gotten this guy fired. Had it not been for his body cam.

And he was this polite, what will these people do to you?

Nothing matters, to them.

Nothing matters.

Look at all the crime, that is happening.

And what are they doing?

They're going after religious people that are singing hymns.

This is such an important election.

You've got to sign up to make sure that you are on the board, so you can see and you can be somebody who is watching the polls.

Watch the counting.

I want Republicans there.

I want Democrats there.

I want independents there.

I don't want just one side.

I want honest brokers.

I don't know. Because I think that's what most people in America want.

It's got to be 90 percent of the people say. I just -- I don't care if my side loses, if it is fair!

But I don't want any corruption.

Well, unfortunately, all the people of power want that corruption.

Because they can use it to divide us and to control us.

By the way, more news on Michelle Obama. And I'm telling you, I think this is going to happen. Sources now claim, money men, behind Michelle could be the best candidate against Donald Trump. Money men have been contacted.

By apparently, in 2022, a trial balloon by Michelle Obama and her husband, to test if they can get support from Wall Street, et cetera.

She said, if I'm running, and I ask for your support, what would you -- would you -- would you back me?

Apparently. Apparently.

Then, she has just gone on to podcast. She admitted her concerns on Jay Shetty's podcast, on purpose.

Telling him, what's going to happen in this next election?

I'm terrified what could possibly happen. Who we select. Who speaks for us. Who holds that bully pulpit?

It affects us in ways sometimes I think people take for granted. The fact that people think that the government, does it really even do anything?

And I'm like, oh, my God. Our government does everything for us.

And we can't take this democracy for granted. I worry sometimes that we do. These are the things that keep me up at night.

Now, as Megyn Kelly mentioned. She doesn't have a book out. She doesn't have anything that she was promoting. Who called and said, hey. You should do this podcast with Michelle Obama.

What happened there?

And why is she saying this?

I don't know. Could be nothing. But I just want to point out to Stu, who likes to lose money in bets.

STU: My gambling record is incredible.

I mean, I don't even think, it's not even gambling for me.

I just win.

That's all. That's how it works.

GLENN: Really. Wow. Wow. Why are you still working here then?

STU: I need to get enough money, to get into the big bets.

I don't have a -- I'm working on it, though.

GLENN: Okay. So I see the market here.

Joe Biden has an implied probability of 80 percent.

But he is -- you have to -- how does this work?

Is this negative 400.

STU: Negative 400, you bet $400 to win $100.

In other words, you -- the overwhelming favorite, if you're minus 400.

GLENN: Okay. So Hillary Clinton, plus 5,000, Gretchen Whitmer. Plus 10,000.

Robert Kennedy, plus 6600. Tulsi Gabbard, plus 6600.

Elizabeth Warren, plus 5,000.

Kamala Harris, 1900.

Dean Phillips. Up --

STU: Plus 1900?

That means basically 19 to one.

GLENN: Yeah. Gavin Newsom, 800. To one.

And Michelle --

STU: Like eight to one.

GLENN: I -- I don't --

STU: So you bet $10, you get $80.

GLENN: Okay. Michelle Obama, plus 400.

STU: Bet $10, get $40 if you win.

GLENN: Okay. And Joe Biden, negative 400.

STU: Bet $40, get $10.

GLENN: So Michelle Obama was nowhere on this list, until recently. She's now popped up.

STU: I mean, look, people like you, are going to spend their money on people like Michelle Obama to win the nomination.

GLENN: You want to make a bet?

STU: Sure.

GLENN: What would you like to bet?

STU: What would you like to bet?

GLENN: Well, the last time we made a bet was years and years ago, where you had to go on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum.

STU: Wow. You remember that?

GLENN: Oh, I do. I do.

STU: Mid-2000s. Eagles' Super Bowl. I really wanted the day off to go to the game.

GLENN: Right. Right.

STU: You made me wager with you, that if the Eagles lost, I had to stand on the steps of the Rocky Museum, and say, Rocky was a loser too.

GLENN: Yeah

STU: That was...

GLENN: "Like all of Philadelphia, Rocky was a loser too."

And it made you very popular.

STU: I was very popular, and somehow made it out of their alive. But lived to enjoy an actual Super Bowl championship, so I don't know what kind of precedent you're setting here with this wager.

Look, do you actually -- what you've outlined with Michelle Obama is a plausible theory of something that could theoretically happen. Do you actually believe that it would happen.

GLENN: I do.

STU: More than 50 percent?

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: What -- give me a number, 75 percent?

GLENN: Sixty.

STU: 60 percent. We'll do 50/50. We'll have even odds. And I'll say, it will be Joe Biden.

You say, it will be Michelle Obama.

GLENN: So what does that mean. Even odds.

STU: Yeah. Ten dollars. Win $10.

GLENN: Okay. So let's bet a thousand bucks. Put your money where your mouth is.

STU: You're saying, you will give me a thousand dollars, if Joe Biden is the nominee for the Democrats?

GLENN: No. Wait. Wait. Wait. If he is the guy running when the election happens.

STU: When the election happens?

GLENN: Yeah. If he's the guy running when the election happens.

STU: Like, he's the guy on the ballot, he's the guy we're voting for or against on that day.

GLENN: And it's not some technicality. Like he's still on the ballot.

STU: Right. I'm willing to be totally -- yes. I'm in, 100 percent.

GLENN: All right. A thousand bucks. You've got it. It's a public bet. You can't back out of it. I, of course, can always say, that's not what America heard.

STU: That is what you'll say.

GLENN: I will not. I will not welch on that bet. I think there is a very strong chance that she is -- she is the one.

STU: I think it's plausible. I just think my value here is really good.

GLENN: Now, here's the thing.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: I think she's the one that could change everything. So am I doing -- is this a well-spent thousand dollars? Because if I'm saying, yeah. It's going to happen. It's not going to happen. We've learned that --

STU: You're hedging your life. I love that.

GLENN: It's worth a thousand dollars to me, that she doesn't run.

STU: Right. Tempt the fates.

GLENN: Tempt the fates.

VOICE: Z10852. Something weird is going on. The World Trade Center is on fire.

VOICE: Seriously the top of the building. We're trying to get information.

VOICE: Top level of one of the --

VOICE: To unfold from New York City.

VOICE: A plane crashed just --

VOICE: My sister is in that believe. I hope she's okay. I have to come to New York.

VOICE: It's pandemonium.

VOICE: It's raining papers.

VOICE: Wait a minute! Stop just a second. Why are we -- why are we -- I've got breaking news. Breaking news, yesterday. New York City just elected as their mayoral candidate for the left. And the Democrats, a -- a Muslim radical, who is also a communist!

So, you know, it only took you 25 years. It only took you 25 years, New York, to go completely insane.

Somebody who is -- well, I mean, if I might quote Michael malice today. I am old enough to remember when New Yorkers endured 9/11 instead of voting for it.

But you've got a -- you've got a communist jihadist apologist now.

Who was -- you know, well, CAIR put $100,000 behind his bid for New York City mayor.

So you have somebody who is endorsed by CAIR. That's really good.

He also was somebody who said, you know, he was -- he was for the shooting of the United Health Care CEO.

Said he was looking forward to driving down magnum Joan avenue. I don't know. Sounds like supporting people in the streets. Maybe it's just me.

Then he also said that he was going to globalize the intifada, which I think that's -- maybe -- maybe that's just me.

I mean, what do I know?

Tim Miller who is a podcaster. Asked him a few weeks ago. Asked him about his pro Palestinian slogan. Globalized the intifada. And he said, for me, ultimately, what I hear in so many, is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights, in standing up for Palistinian human rights. Oh, is that what you hear, Mr. CAIR?

Really? Huh, that's interesting.

Right. So globalize the intifada.

I mean, I mean, sure, that's -- I mean well, let me go on.

Because I don't want to take him out of context.

He then delved into the semantics of the intifada, citing the United States Holocaust memorial museum's use of a word for a translation for uprising, in an Arabic version of an article, a museum published about the Warsaw ghetto.

Oh!

So this is just a comparison, about the -- the armed rebellion against the Nazis!

I don't know if that makes me feel better!

I mean, if we're globalizing that.

We're the Nazis in this scenario.

Because I don't think it's the Palestinians.

I certainly don't think it's anybody who is like, hey.

Global jihad. I don't think it's those guys.

Or the Nazis. Who are the Nazis in that?

And it seems, if that's what you mean, then it's not just a harmless kind of slogan about human rights. It is a call for violence on the streets.

Because I don't know if you know, that's what happened when the Jews had their uprising against the Nazis.

I'm just saying!

But, hey, hey, free Palestine.

Oh, that's not what that means, gang. That is not what that means, but don't worry about it. He's just going to be possibly the new mayor.

And that's great. By the way, the Columbia faculty members signed a letter defending Hamas.

They were also among the donors to his mayoral campaign.

So, you know, you don't have anything to worry about.

And his father, who used to work at Columbia. Do you know, Stu?

Is his Dad -- is he still a professor at Columbia University?

He said that -- this violent terror thing of Islam, is not a part of Islam. Now, I've read the Koran, and much of the hadith.

And I'm pretty sure the violence is a part of that. But no.

No. This is something entirely new.

And his father while at Columbia university, wanted everybody to know, that this is actually -- this is something that came out of America!

America is really responsible for this.

And, you know, it really started with the Reagan administration, you know, when he started -- when he started with his very religious terms, to finish the war against the evil empire.

So, you know, that's where -- that's where 9/11 came from.

Is what -- don't worry about it! Don't worry about it!

Because who am I? I'm clearly just -- am I an anti-Semite today, or am I an Islamophobic? I can't remember which one.

Oh, it's probably both. Anyway, Islamophobia. Let me just explain Islamophobia. I haven't even gotten to the Communist part of it. Which is really, really -- New York, you're in one for hell of a ride. Buckle up.

It will be a fun rollercoaster for you. My gosh, I've never been happier that I've been away are if New York.

Anyway, I just want I to know, there is Islam. And then there is Islamists. Now, an Islamist is somebody who really wants Sharia law.

That's political Islam!

That's not a faith. That's political Islam.

Now, let me make really -- something really clear. Criticizing Islamism, is not Islamophobia. Pointing out the dangers of, oh. I don't know.

Political Islam. The ideology that seeks to use the tools of democracy, ultimately to destroy democracy, is not an attack on Muslims.

No. Uh-uh.

You know why?

Because Muslims are often the first people in line.

The first victims of the ideology.

So let's draw a bright, bright line between Islam as a faith, millions of people can practice that faithfully and peacefully.

It's mostly peaceful, okay?

Then there's the Islamism.

Islamism is something entirely -- that's a political project.

A theocratic political -- oh. Left loves theocracies. They love it.

Of course, you never see a problem with it.

See it when an Islamist is touting it. Anyway, it's not about prayer. It's not about fasting. It's not about spiritual life.

It's all about power. It's about merging of mosque and state. It's about implementing Sharia, not as a personal code of conduct. But as a governing legal system.

And it's -- it's supremacy.

Absolutely. Faith.

Religion.

It's -- there's one thing that's supreme.

It's misogynistic.

Deeply intolerant of all kinds of things.

Descent. Secularism. Other faiths. Even competing interpretations from inside the faith itself.

It will behead them too.

So let's -- let's be honest here for a second.

You know, CAIR should be labeled an international terror organization.

In my opinion. In my opinion.

Oh, does that make me -- that makes me an Islamophobe. I'm sure. I'm sure they will start a campaign against me on being an Islamophobe.

Stand in line, guys. You've been doing it since 2001, okay?

I don't really care. And I don't think the American people. I think that record, all the grooves are worn-out on that one, okay?

This is not a religion we're talking about. When we're talking about Sharia law. And we're talking about globalize the intifada. What does that mean, actually, to globalize it?

Does that mean we now want to do what is happening to Israel? All over the world?

Has the Palestinian plight become our plight you now, as Americans?

That there has to be an intifada here!

Because it's the kind of the same. You know. It's kind of the same over, you know, with what the Palestinians are going through.

Well, it's very much like what the Jews went through with the Nazis.

That's a weird one. That one makes my head hurt. It's very much the same as that. And very much the same as the fight against Donald Trump.

Oh, this is going to be fun. It's fun!

Really fun. You know, the irony here is, the ones that will scream Islamophobia the most, are the ones in the progressive left, the champions of feminism, LGBTQ rights. And secularism.

They're going to -- no. You want -- they're going to stand with the people, who want to kill them first.

See, this is how smart they are!

This is why it's going to work out well, in New York City.

Let me just say. If you have an ounce of common sense, you run a business, you have an ounce of wealth. And I don't mean wealth like, you know, hey, Lovey.

Let's get on the boat for a three-hour tour with a suitcase full of cash. I mean you saved anything, anything, get the hell out of New York City.

I mean, this is about survival. This is about free speech. This is about women's rights.
Religious pluralism. Secular legal systems. Liberal democracy.

But it's also about failed principles of Communism. Okay?

First, you have to call out political Islam for what it is. Okay?

And we have to do it with the clarity that we call out white nationalism.

Got to do it with that. Got to -- you know, the Klan. Really bad people.

Really bad people.

Anybody who is shouting for globalized intifada?

Pretty bad. Pretty bad people.

Okay?

Now, let's get to communism.

Because that's another cool, cool angle of the new Democratic candidate for -- for mayor of New York City.

That I just -- I think is cuddly and cute. Sure, it led to 100 million deaths. But this time, New York is going to be radically different. Oh, did I use the word radical?

I didn't mean to use that. What's radical about this guy?

Nothing. He's just like you!

Well, not exactly.

But let's talk about communism, next!

Now, the new mayoral candidate that's running there in New York City. That so many young people rushed to defend and vote for. He's promising free buses.

That's going to work out.

Where are you going to get the money for free buses.

It's free!

City-run grocery stores.

Oh, rent freezes. And finally somebody has done it. A 30-dollar minimum wage.

So under the banner of equity. And, you know, we will tax the wealthy. And the corporations. You know, we're going to squeeze another $10 billion out of them.

Really?

Because they're going to call a U-Haul.

You know, they will call something like U-Haul. There will be a lot of -- there will be a lot of movers that are like, how do I get the truck back from Texas or Florida back up to New York? Nobody is moving up there.

But he's going to do it.

Now, his vision isn't really new. You know, just -- just tax people, so we could have city-run grocery stores. You know, I remember -- I'm old enough to remember those city-run grocery stores in Moscow.

They were great.

The shelves were empty.

But that's just Moscow.

It worked out completely different in Venezuela.

Where, oh, no.

It didn't. That's right. The grocery store.

They were eating the zoo animals.

But it will be different in New York.

Because they have rent controls too.

And that will just choke the housing supply, but don't worry. As a young family.

You know, you voted for it.

You know better.

It will work this time.

So, you know, I like building ideas, I just don't like usually building on the graves of 100 million people.

But, you know, why not? Why not?

You know, use this dogma.

And this time, it will be different. It's not like it was in China. Where the great leap forward, was a gross -- a gross parody of progress. Venezuela, which was oil rich. One of the richest nations in the hemisphere now sees 90 percent of its population in poverty!

Yeah. Darn it. You know what they did?

They decided to take state control of things.

You know, like grocery stores. And it worked out well. How is that free busing working out in Venezuela?

I just want to -- I just want to know.

Anyway, then you've got the globalize the intifada. Which is going to drop a little violence in, and anti-Semitism in with your communism.

Which is weird!

Because violence and anti-Semitism, always happen. When it -- when it comes to -- when it comes to communism.

This is weird!

I've got to play something for you. Because this has talked about on me earlier this morning.

Oh, wow.

Wait a minute. This is -- this is the whole coalition coming together here.

So this is going to be good. New York, this is going to be great.

It's going to be great for you.

No. He's going to uplift you. Then the social fabric of New York City is just going to be -- just one.

It's going to be fantastic. Don't worry about your 120 billion dollars in debt. Or your 10 billion-dollar deficit that you have right now.

You are going to charge the rich more taxes, and they will stay right there.

They will be like, you know what, that 46 percent in taxes that I'm paying, this is just not enough. It's just not enough.

I need to pay 60 or 70 percent to be able to pay my fair share. So that's good. That's good. That's good.

You know, they're not risking 100 million people. It's just 8 million people.

This time, it's just 8 million people.

But, hey. For those of you in upstate New York. That aren't going to be part of this experiment.

Don't worry, you get to pay for it. Because they'll kick it up to the state. The state will have to subsidize everything. And don't you love it?

Really, don't you want to subsidize the really crazy ideas of New York City?

I mean, why don't you have a -- why don't you have a democratic socialist. A/k/a communist mayor.

Why haven't you done that? Are you not progressive enough? Are you not looking into the future?

Are you stuck in the past?

I don't know. I don't know. The graveyard is pretty big. I have a hard time getting past that one. You know, yeah, so I'm stuck in the past. Because I can't seem to pass that graveyard, and get to be down the path with you. But it's going to be a paradise.

Forget arithmetic. You know, or human nature. This time, it's going to work. It's going to work. So all right!

Wish I lived in this morning.

No wait. Nope. I don't. Nope, I don't.

And Ted Cruz, stop it. Stop writing, hey, come to Texas. No. No. Don't come to Texas. Don't come to Florida. Go to California. It's beautiful this time of year. Go there. Go there.
