Financial expert ANSWERS: Should you pay off your debt NOW?

Carol Roth, financial expert and author of ‘You Will Own Nothing,’ joins Glenn to discuss what our economy could be facing next. We may soon experience ‘inflation like you can’t believe,’ Glenn says, so is NOW the time to pay off all your debt? Roth, who does not provide financial advice but rather gives the information you need to make your own, informed decisions, explains why paying off all your investment debts (like a mortgage) NOW may actually be less beneficial in the long run…

GLENN: So we have Carol Roth on. And this hour of the broad and podcast, we have been talking about the Fed Now system. And how that system by itself is not anything to do with the digital dollar.

However, it does make the digital dollar, should they introduce it, more effective.

And they could settle in realtime, just like Bitcoin now can do.

And so it's important that you know, that this is a needed step for the modern world.

However, I don't trust them on anything that they do.

So when they say, no, this is it. That's all we're doing. Don't believe that. Don't believe that. But understand, the Fed Now system is different than a digital dollar.

We have Carol Roth in. And before we get into this next thing, Carol, I want to share with you an experience I had with a friend the other day.

And this friend is somebody who will like, come to me and say, okay. Better worse, or about the same?

And they don't want to -- they don't want to look at things. Because they were hoping I was wrong. I hope that I'm wrong. I hope we find a way to turn this around. I don't think we're going to, just based on past performance. But we could.

And they've kind of wanted to not be so freaked out by it. And I understand it.

But they said something to me, that I immediately connected with. And I think it's important to say, to you, the audience, that -- because you might go through this. And don't fear it.

There was a time I said, off-air. When we were back -- this was back 2012, when everything was coming clearer on the path that we were on. And I used to say, every day, when I would get off the air, I would say -- I would just burst out in tears, and I would say, I feel like I'm watching my child, smothered in a crib, and I can't do anything. And no one will listen to stop it.

And it is just trauma every day. Because I loved my country. And I saw that we are headed in exactly the wrong way. And no one will do anything.

And this is intentional. And so I went through that period. But I got past it. And I realized now, that is just one of the phases of grief.

You are going to go through grief, as we lose some of the things, that we have always traditionally known.

It's better to do it now. Than it is, when the time comes. You won't have time for the grief then.

People will be grieving. You have to help them.

You have to be logical, and think your way through everything.

So embrace it.

Learn, get your morning over with, so you're strong and back up on your feet, when these things come. Would you agree with that?

CAROL: Yeah. Yeah. I would like to share too, I have gone through that personally. My husband has gone through that personally. This is something that everybody who has been following this, this is part of the process. I called it smothering the baby. For me, it was the train in slow motion, going off the tracks, and feeling like you can't stop it.

And the reality is, we may not be able to stop the train from going off the tracks. But I can't personally take shelter.

That's what you have to do. You cannot panic here.

You have to prepare. And say, what is it that I can do?

I may not be able to stop the huge financial order. That's a huge, tall order. But what can I do in my life? To make myself more prepared? Then if things go badly, at least I know I can get through that difficult period. My family, my friends can do that. And the more people you educate and work with together, on a community level.

I think the more opportunities you're going to have to share, to cope, to work together

So it's really about taking that personal responsibility, and controlling the peace that you can.

GLENN: And I think this is really important.

You bring up the train. I like that a lot.

Because if you're on the train. You need to prepare. You need to secure yourself and prepare for impact.

That is critically important. If you're watching the train. You're not on the train, you see it coming.

You need to say, it blankets. Get a -- call the ambulance.

Get some doctors here.

We need some help. So you prepare, whether we're on it or off it. And that's critical. And I believe that's where this audience is meant to be.

Those people that help others. So let me go back to the fed.

We were talking about what is coming. And honestly, I have had people say to me. Glenn, we can sell our national parks.

I'm like, what? I don't want to sell our national parks. And they said, we're off the gold standard. We're off the oil. But we have all kinds of things we can back a dollar with.

Uh-huh. I don't like probably any of the solutions, they would come up with. However, they have come up with another solution. And it's called modern monetary theory.

And I've explained it in one of my books. I think two of my books. It's important to understand. But the just of it is, the government can spend as much as it wants. And they can print as much money.

Now, you would say, well, what about inflation?

They say, as long as we can control the spending down to the level of the individual, this is why it's never worked. Because they've had to do mass things like, you know, raise the -- you know, the finance rates.

Raise the loan rates. And that just doesn't work, and you're playing. It's not an accurate science. And it's behind the spending.

So you're always playing catchup. Or you're prognosticating. And that's always bad. This, a digital currency. Can actually stop the spending today, on certain products.

It can also then ration today, by the way, having to have some system that everybody has to know.

That's their way out of the inflation, that we are going to have to print, and the fed is going to have to buy, and put on their books.

Do you agree or disagree, Carol?

CAROL: So I will say, that's what they believe to be their way out of inflation perhaps.

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

CAROL: Is I call them MMT magic money tree. It's a theory, that people that believe in unicorns. Believe in.

They say there's an element of control there. That's why, real modern monetary theory has never been tried. And every time it's been tried, it hasn't worked. But they're looking for that element of control. And what you have to understand, imagine that every dollar that you had in your pocket, had a micro chip in it.

And that somebody else could track everything that you do, and regardless, of whether it's that they want control you from a social credit standpoint, or they want to control you from a monetary theory standpoint, they can make the decisions, to let you access that money that is yours. That is supposed to be able to, by the way, a proxy for your productivity.

You know, Glenn, you mentioned, what backs the US dollar? What backs the US dollar, is American productivity and ingenuity.

That's the backing of it. That's what it's supposed to stand for. But every time that you say, okay. Productivity is equal to this unit of money, and then you go and you print more money, well, you just devalued that equation. So that is what they're going to do.

And they're going to try to do that as a conduit to get themselves out of it. Which, by the way, won't work. Because there are things called logic and reason and math.

GLENN: Yes. Yes. But it will give them control. And people will say that's a conspiracy theory.

Let me play something from Christine LaGuardia. From the French central bank. Their Federal Reserve. Listen to this exchange she's having with somebody she thinks is Vladimir Zelinsky.

Listen to this.

GLENN: There are many protests in Europe against the electronic euro. No, the problem is, they don't want to be controlled.

They don't want to --

VOICE: Yeah. But you know what. You know what.

Now we have in Europe, this threshold, above 1,000 euros.

You cannot pay in cash. If you do, you are on the gray market.

So you take your risk.

You get caught. You are fined. Or you go to jail.

But, you know, the -- the digital euro is going to have a limited amount of control. They will be controlled. Right.

You're completely right.

We are considering whether for very small amounts. You know, anything that is around 300, 400 euros. We could have a mechanism, where there is zero control. But that could be dangerous.

The terrorist attacks on France. About ten years ago. And highly financed by those very small anonymous credit cards, that you can recharge in total anonymity.

GLENN: Unbelievable.

So there will be control.

But we're going to let people have like $500, that they could spend, that won't be tracked. But we're not sure. Because that's the way terrorists would use it. That's total control.

CAROL: Let me read you another thing.

This is, by the way, on the White House's website. So I can tweet out the link to it. But in March of 2021, President Biden made remarks to the Business Roundtable. Which is, you know, all of the major company CEOs in the United States

And said, you know, I believe we're at an reflection point in the world economy, not just the world economy in the world.

It occurs every three or four generations. Dot, dot, dot. And now, at a time when things are shifting. There will be a New World Order out there.

And he says, we have to lead it.

The question you have to ask yourself is, who is we?

Because I'm pretty sure, Glenn, that you're not in we, I'm in we, your listeners are not in the we. It's all of those people who are working together, to control, to jockey, to position themselves, to control every finite resource out there. Because they see it.

They have told us, they see this shift is happening. They're working. All these things that are happening, are working. So that they can control every resource. And make sure, you will own nothing.

That is where that comes from.

GLENN: We're with Carol Roth. Carol, you stay with me, one more break.

The number one question that comes in from listeners for you.

Is should I pay off all my debts?

What should I do?

Because if you're right, inflation like you can't believe, is coming through. So what does that mean?

Get that answer from you, here in just a second.

You know the value of a dollar, right?

No, I don't. And I don't know the value of $20. How far is 20 bucks going to get you. My gosh, I went in to buy a roast for Easter. And my eyes almost fell out of my head.

I could not believe how expensive everything -- and that's inflation. That is what is coming, times a thousand.

So when somebody charges you 19.95, for something that actually works, and can make your life better. That is a good deal.

The three-week Quick Start from Relief Factor. It's 19.95. It's a trial pack.

It's not a drug developed by doctors.

Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor. 70 percent of them go on to order more from Relief Factor, month after month. Because it works. Now, here's the thing: Try it for three weeks.

Yes. You will be out 20 bucks. But that will be like a dime soon. It's Relief Factor. Call them at 800-4-Relief. 800-4-Relief.

The 19.95 three-week Quick Start. Relieffactor.com. Feel the difference.
(OUT AT 10:48 AM)

GLENN: Carol Roth is with us now. She's the author of the new book, you will own nothing. It is based on the great reset. And what is coming in our country. It is also a great companion book. Comes out about the same time, with my book called Dark Future.

I show all of the things that are in place, and planning now for the second phase of the great reset. That will boggle your mind.

But she goes down and the bets into the nitty-gritty on what should you do, and what is coming. So let's go there. Because one of the real questions. I hear this all the time. Why don't I just go out and a buy a a bunch of stuff. Because then I could have a loan at a low interest rate, and then I'll pay it off, and then with inflated dollars. That seems scary.

CAROL: Yeah. So people sometimes don't differentiate between the debt that is used for spending, and debt that is used for investing.

There's good and bad debt. You don't want to be taking on debt for your spending, but you want to be able to use it productively for an investment.

If you can get a better return on your investment than the cost you have to pay for the debt, by using it.

One of the reasons people take out debt for a house over time, right?

So that's one of the big questions that I've been getting. And there seems to be a lot of confusion about what happens to debt, if everything goes south, and we end up in hyperinflation. People are saying, we end up in this hyperinflation scenario. Does it make sense for me to pay off my debt now? And so I just want to walk through the thought process on this. If the dollar loses purchasing power, it's actually good for your fixed rate debt. So assuming your house has a fixed interest rate on it, and you have a fixed amount of debt on it. Let's say as an extreme example, the prices of everything doubled due to the dollar degradation. Well, then your debt is really in a sense worth half as much as it is today. In the future.

So you have to be thinking about it, in that sense. Do you really want to take something out of your investments and pay that down, as a solution if your debt is going to have -- you know, be, quote, unquote, worth less in the future on a relative basis. So, again, I'm not a financial adviser.

This is not financial advice. But just giving people things to think through, because your audience is so fabulous. They send me questions all the time. And that is one of the big areas of misunderstanding. Is what should I do?

Now paying down debt from a behavioral standpoint, is always a good thing. Paying down debt on your spending is always a good thing. But something that is for an investment, you know, if you're worried about what happens to it, during hyperinflation, it's actually the inverse of what you're thinking.

GLENN: Carol, thank you. How do people contact you, by the way?

CAROL: Yeah. So CarolRoth.com. There's a contact form there. And then as you had mentioned, the new book, you will own nothing is on pre-order. Companion people are buying yours and mine together. And like you said, most importantly thing is mine does have that action plan.

You learn all the things that are happening, like you learn in your book, Dark Future.

But how to fight back. This is about how we can actually own everything. This isn't a scare tactic.

The idea is to inform and make sure that you own everything.

We want you to still be able to have the American dream.

GLENN: That is so important. Books really do make a good companion to each other. We kind of have worked on them kind of in a way, that way.

CAROL: Yes. Together.

GLENN: So you can understand the big picture. Know what is real, what is not real, and then, what do I do about it?

The book, mine is Dark Future. You can order it now.

Hers is, you will own nothing, by Carol Roth. Order them together, wherever you buy your books.

Carol, thank you so much.

CAROL: Thanks as always, Glenn.

GLENN: God bless.

SHOCK POLL: The % of Young People Who Support SOCIALISM is Insane

New polling reveals a shocking truth: young Americans aren’t just open to socialism... they overwhelmingly want a socialist president in 2028. Glenn Beck and Justin Haskins break down five alarming surveys showing massive ideological shifts among voters ages 18-39, including young Republicans. Why is socialism exploding in popularity, and what does this mean for the future of America? Are we on the brink of a political transformation or potentially even a national crisis?

Property Taxes are OUT OF CONTROL - And Here's Why! | Guest: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott

Texas Governor Greg Abbott joins Glenn Beck to expose why Texans are being crushed by skyrocketing property taxes — and how local governments, not the state, keep driving homeowners deeper into financial distress. Gov. Abbott breaks down his five-point plan to impose strict spending limits, force voter approval for tax hikes, reform out-of-control appraisals, empower citizens to slash taxes themselves, and eliminate school district property taxes for homeowners altogether. Glenn argues that property tax is morally wrong because it prevents Texans from ever truly owning their land, and Abbott lays out his strategy to fight both parties in the legislature to finally deliver lasting relief.

Joe Rogan & Glenn AGREE: We just got CLOSER to civil war

Joe Rogan recently warned that we may have gotten to Step 7 of 9 in the lead-up to civil war. Glenn reviews the 9 Steps and explains why he believes Rogan nailed this one. But Glenn also lays out what Americans MUST do to reverse this trend...

GLENN: So if you take what Fetterman said yesterday about how people are cheering for him to die on the left, and then you couple it with something that was on the Joe Rogan show on Tuesday. He was saying that the reaction to the death of Charlie Kirk makes him think that the US is closer to Civil War than -- than he thought.

Now, let me quote him. He said, after the Charlie Kirk thing. I'm like, oh, my.

We might be at seven. This might be he step seven on the way to a bona fide Civil War. Charlie Kirk gets shot, and people are celebrating.

Like, whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

You want people to die that you disagree with?

Where are we now on the scale of Civil War?

Well, let me go over the scale of Civil War, because it's sobering.

Now, none of this has to be true. If we wake up and decide, I don't want to do this anymore!

Okay?

Here's step one.

Step one. Loss of civic trust.

Every civil conflict begins when people stop believing that the system is fair. Are we there?

We're so far -- we're so far past the doorway, we are comfortably asleep on the couch on this one. Gallup and Pew both show trust in Congress, the media courts, and the FBI government are now at record lows.

The Edelman Trust Barometer classifies the US now as severely polarized. Majority of Republicans distrust federal elections. Majority of Democrats don't trust the Supreme Court.

Americans are really united on one thing, and that is the other side is corrupt!

When faith in the rules collapses, the republic begins to wobble. But that's step one. Step two, polarization hardens into identity!

Political disagreement is normal!

Identity conflict is fatal!

But that's what Marxists push. Identity politics. This is when politics stopped being about policy, and started being about who you are as a person.

Have we crossed this one into step two?

I mean, we're neck deep into this. A study on this, from PRRI.

It's a survey, found 23 percent of Americans believe political violence may be necessary to save the that I guess.

I think that's an old study. Americans now sort themselves by ZIP code into ideological enclaves. The big sort: Universities, activists, corporations. Everybody is promoting oppressor versus oppressed.

And that -- does what?

It puts us into incompatible tribes. Opponents aren't wrong anymore. The opponent is dangerous!

If I go back and you look at civil wars, Lebanon, before 1975. Yugoslavia, before 1991. That's -- we're doing that. Okay?

Step three. Breakdown of the gatekeepers. The gatekeepers are kind of like the referees of society. It's the media, political parties, churches, civic leaders.

When they fail, extremism fills the vacuum. Okay. Where are we on this? Have our gatekeepers failed us?

Yeah. I think both parties, especially the left, you know, everything I predicted that the left was going to be eaten by the extreme left, and then the communists and the socialists is now happening.

They've lost control of the fringe of each party. Media transformed, you know, from referees into team coaches. Tech platforms. It's outrage for profit. Universities are not there to cool things down. They heat them up.

Churches. Churches are useless. Useless.

When the referees leave the field, the game devolves into a brawl. And the refs are gone off the field. So there are only nine steps. We're at step four. Here's step four.

Are you ready for this one?

Parallel information realities.

Civil wars don't require different opinions. They require different realities.

I remember reading about Germany, at the beginning of, you know, the Nazi era. How the two new newspapers. One was propaganda for the government.

And the other one, it was the last one that was kind of the holdout.

And they said, you could read them, and they would cover the same thing.

But they had almost no information was the same. Except, that happened yesterday.

Here's what they said. And then everything else was different. That's exactly -- I mean, step four is complete!

We can't agree on facts, right?

Crime rates. Border numbers. Inflation. Election security.

Two Americans can watch the same video. And see opposite truths.

Social media algorithms are creating customized political universes.

Digital echo chambers. Deepfakes. We're just at the beginning of that. And both sides accuse the other of running disinformation machines.

Why? Because we don't have a shared reality. So if you don't have a shared reality. How do you settle any dispute?

On the nine steps, we're up to number five. Coming in at number five.

Loss of neutral rule of law.

This out of the nine steps with, five is the pivot point.

It's not corruption, it's the belief that the law is no longer neutral.

Are we there yet?

Let me tell you the CBS you.gov poll. 67 percent say the justice system is used for political purposes.

I think that's low. January 6 defendants given years in prison, 2020 rioters were released. High profile political figures, prosecuted or shielded based on party.

FBI whistle-blowers alleging pressure to inflate domestic extremism numbers. States like Texas, directly defying federal directives, on border enforcement.

And now, leading the way, with the federal government.

History is really cold and unforgiving on this point.

Once the people believe justice is political! Remember, this is the turning point.

The republic stands on borrowed time. Once you no longer believe that justice is achievable. Step six.

Are we there?

I think we are.

Step six. Normalization of political violence!

This is where violence stops shocking the system. Are we there?

Remember, where violence stops shocking the system. Look at evidence just from Virginia. What they just voted for.

He was calling for the death of a -- a political opposition.

Calling for his children to be killed.

Was called on it, never apologized.

Never said anything other than, yeah. I know. He dug it deeper.

Was anyone shocked by it? Apparently not. They elected him. Here's the evidence. 2020 riots.
574 events. $2 billion in damage. Was anybody outraged by that? Or was it downplayed and excused?
Assassination attempts. Assassination attempts against the president. Supreme Court justice.

Fistfights. And mob actions on college campuses. To silence speakers. Rising to do for punching a fascist or stopping genocide. Depending on the ideology. Online chatter discussing Civil War, national divorce, and revolution.

When violence becomes part of the political language, a nation crosses an invisible line. We're now up to step seven out of nine.

This is where Joe Rogan said, are we at step seven?

The rise of militias and parallel forces.

When a state loses he is monopoly on force.

Countdown accelerates. So where are we on this one?

I think we're seeing, maybe early signs of this.

You're starting to see the -- the states kind of organize these mobs, you know, to go after ICE.

Right?

Armed groups, right-wing, left-wing radical secessionists. Anyone.

Once they start forming their own police forces. Or their own option forces, then you have -- then you have everything really falling apart.

Entirely!

I don't think we're there, yet!

But we're starting to see the beginnings of this.

Step eight. The trigger event.

Civil Wars don't begin with a plan. They begin with a spark.

So where are we?

We're not here yet. The conditions are right. Potential triggers, disputed election in '26 or '28.

Political assassination or major attack.

Supreme Court decision that ignites mass unrest.

Financial crisis or dollar crisis.

A state federal standoff turning violent!

Nothing is ignited yet, but the room is soaked in gasoline. So we don't have seven. We're on the verge of eight, at any time. And here's nine.

This is the point of no return.

When police, military, or federal agencies split, even if no one calls it that, well, where are we?

Well, I just read a story about how with the Mamdani election in New York, a good number of the police force is going to leave. And they're going to go join police forces elsewhere. You also have the tension between the state National Guard, and the federal directives, the state guard and the state directives. Law enforcement recruitment is at crisis lows. The distrust of the FBI, DOJ, CIA. Tens of millions of Americans. I always really respected those institutions. I have no respect for them now. If you have states openly defying federal rules on immigration, drug laws, sanctuary policies.
Whistle-blower claims of internal politicization.

All of these things are in play for the first time in 150 years, people can imagine!

So I give this to you, not to be fearful of, but to know where you are. As a map!

Know where you are.

And hopefully, it might wake some people up, if you chart America on, on the nine step model of Civil War. Steps one through four, completed!

Step five, happening!

Step six, happening! Step seven, beginning! Step eight, just waiting for it. And step nine, avoidable, only if step eight, never happens. Again, I'm not telling you for doom purposes, this is diagnosis. This is a doctor going, I want you to look at the chart.

And this is a doctor saying, I want you to look at -- do you see what's happening to your body?

If you don't stop this habit, you are going to die. You don't have to die. You can stop smoking and drinking right now. You can start exercising. But if you don't, you are going to die.

The question is, are we the nation that says, nah, that's not going to happen to me. Or are we the nation that wakes up and sees our chart and says, good heavens, it's way far more gone than I thought it was. But I feel something in the air.

I'm going to change my behavior. The nation that refuses to look and wake up and stop calling their neighbors enemies, is the nation that fails!

We have to strengthen these things that have already fallen. And, you know what, the easiest one to do is?

Church. Where are you ministers and pastors priests and rabbis?

Where the hell are you?

I think there's going to be a special section for you, when you cross over to the -- because you're doing things in the name of God!

So when you get to the other side, I think there's going to be a special section for those who remained silent. While his rights were being taken away.

You don't own that right.

I don't own that right.

The Lord gave us those rights, and said, protect them!

By you, being the representative, the voice box, if you will, of the Lord, to shepherd his people. By you not standing up and saying, hey, by the way, we have -- we have a moral responsibility to protect these rights for the next generation! By you refusing because you're afraid. Because I think, there's no politics in the Bible! There's no politics in the Bible. Really?

The whole thing is about politics. Is about the moral way you have to live your life.

Calling things as you see them. Calling them back to eternal principles.

He didn't tell anybody how to vote. Render to Caesar what is Caesar's.

But there are certain principles that you have to have, or you lose not only this citizenship, but the next citizenship. The one that really matters. And, boy, if you are doing it because you're a coward, you are in the wrong business!

Get out of the pulpit, and go to work at Jack in the Box.

Democrat “SMOKING GUN” on Trump & Epstein gets DESTROYED by facts

The House Oversight Democrats recently released "new" emails allegedly proving President Trump lied about his knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes. However, Glenn points out a glaring issue with these emails that destroys their entire narrative...

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Well, let's dive right into the Epstein Maxwell emails. My gosh, Stu!

Why are they trying to cover up that Donald Trump had sex with children!

STU: I mean, it's just clear, as -- as day, in the emails!

GLENN: Yeah. No.

STU: He spent hours with one of the victims. What else could have possibly have occurred in that arrangement? We don't know!

GLENN: And it's -- it's one of the victims, Stu. One of the victims!

STU: One of the victims, that's all we know. One of the victims.

GLENN: Let me read what Jeffrey Epstein wrote. I want you to realize that the dog who hasn't barked is Trump. Victim redacted. Victim spent hours at my house with him. He has never once been mentioned. Police chief, et cetera.

Okay. New information, just released. Or is it?

Because in 2011, 2011, that was released and everybody knew it. It's been out floating around. Here's the change: In 2011, this is what it read.

I want you to realize that the dog hasn't barked is Trump. Virginia spent hours at my house with him.

Why would you redact a name that is already out in the public square!

It's already out!

The memo is already out. The email is already out. It's been out for years. Why would you redact that name now?

Well, because it makes it all of a sudden, new and shiny. Shiny and new. If you don't know who said it, you see victim, and you're like, oh, you see victim. Who is the victim?

I don't know. But when you know it's Virginia, you know this has already gone to court. This is -- she already testified about this!

He didn't partake in any of this, any sex with any of it. It's true. He didn't partake in any sex with us, and I'm quoting, this is from the testimony. But it's not true, that he flirted with me. Donald Trump never flirted with me. Have you ever met him?

Yes, at Mar-a-Lago, my dad and him. I wouldn't say they were friends, but my dad knew him, and they would talk. Have you ever been in Donald Trump or Jeffrey Epstein's presence with one another? No!

What's the basis of your statement that Donald Trump is a good friend of Jeffrey? Jeffrey has told me that Donald Trump is a good friend of his.

He didn't partake in any of -- any of the sex with any of it. He flirted with me.

It's true, that he didn't partake in any sex with us. But it's not true that he flirted with me.

So I don't understand that. But she goes on. Donald Trump never flirted with me!

Okay. So what -- what's new about this?

This is the same girl, this is the same person that -- didn't she work at Mar-a-Lago?

Or she was going to get a job at Mar-a-Lago.

STU: Yeah. I believe she did at one point.

GLENN: Yeah. So we know they know each other. We know they know each other.

We know that at Mar-a-Lago, Jeffrey Epstein would come, and he was poaching the employees. The girls there. To go work for him.

And Donald Trump went to him. And said, "Hey, man. Stop it. Stop poaching people from me. That's not cool. Don't do it." And then he said, "Oh, yeah. All right." And then he did it a second time. And he's like, "You know what, you're out. I don't want you here anymore. I asked you not to do it, and you did it." Now, that doesn't mean that he knew what was happening to the girls or what was happening or anything else.

And even if it did mean something was happening with the girls, he was saying, "Hey. Stop it! Don't take any of the girls or the women here.
Don't do it." I don't believe he knew anything about any of this. But God only knows! And really, God only knows!

This is not new news. Donald Trump, he might end up beating Bezos as the richest man on the planet! When all is said and done!

Because, again, the -- they're presenting this as new fact, a giant scandal. Stu, I don't know if you know this. This is -- this breaking news is a giant scandal.

STU: Yeah. I've heard democratic representatives saying that over the past 24 hours. Yeah. We need to investigate this.

This is shocking stuff. It's a massive scandal. Even ABC News, I heard, pushed back against this. And said, well, what scandal? What are you implying occurred here?

We know who the victim was. We know the victim. Like why. Why did you even redact that name?

And they're like we always redact name of victims.

Do you really? When they're already out publicly?

Not to mention, this particular victim is not even alive.

You know, she sadly died. I mean, it's a terrible, terrible story.

GLENN: Terrible story.

STU: Yeah. She passed away.

A suicide. It was at least the report I believe. But she has a posthumous book coming out. But like a terrible, terrible story.

But, you know, to act as if you have to protect her identity when, number one, she's dead.

GLENN: Is ridiculous.

STU: Number two, everybody already knows who she was, including the news sources, who also have a policy, you would think.

And ABC has a policy. They redact, that was in this type of situation. But it's already been out. We already knew who it was.

So they redacted to make it look like he's with other people who have not already told us nothing bad occurred! You know, and it is an absolutely awful tactic. And at least --

GLENN: I think litigation should follow again. I think he should sue them again. Anyone who is presenting this as new information.

ABC did their job. Congratulations for ABC. They did their job.

They pointed out, this is not new information.

Why would you redact. Why are you releasing this now? And you're redacting a name this -- this email is already out!

You're presenting this as a new scandal.

And you redacted that name. This is completely dishonest. The news media shouldn't even run with it. They shouldn't even run with it. They should have said, old news. Old news. And if you did run with it, you should have handle it had like ABC handle it had. Wait a minute. Why did you redact name.

What do you mean that there's a new scandal. She already testified exactly opposite of what you're believing Jeffrey Epstein over the victim right now. I just want to make sure you understand the Democrats right here. You're taking the name of Epstein, over the victim.

Oh, okay. All right.

STU: And Epstein doesn't even say that anything occurred.

GLENN: No.

STU: There's not -- it's just -- it would be something you would have to jump to a conclusion, to accuse Donald Trump of something like this.

And we know what happened, because the victim said nothing!

Said, it was nothing!

GLENN: Right.

STU: In fact, it wasn't even a flirtation. Which, by the way, even that, you might have thought was creepy. It wasn't even a crime.

It wasn't even flirtation. So it's a disgrace in every single way.

GLENN: All right. So let me take you here. Let me take you here.

If you remember when the shutdown first started, what did the Democrats say, the reason why they did the shutdown?

Not them! Why Mike Johnson and everybody else wouldn't negotiate!

Why wouldn't -- why wouldn't the Republicans negotiate?

Because the heat was on, to release the Epstein files.

And they didn't want to have to do that. So they shut the government down!

Okay?

They wouldn't negotiate. You didn't hear any of this? Oh, it's so arrogant.

STU: It doesn't make any sense at all. That's probably what they said.

GLENN: I know. I know. So the government is open, and what does Mike Johnson do yesterday?

He said the House is going to vote on a bill to release all of the files related to the late financier, convicted child sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein next week. He said on Wednesday that a discharge position to bypass leadership and force a vote on the bill, hit the benchmark for needed signatures. It's been decided by him to expedite the vote for the bill, which under the current rules could have been delayed until at least early September.

So he says, as soon as that petition hit, the needed 218 signatures, I brought it up. Unanimous consent. Let's go! Release it.

So he's pushing this forward. Good, Mike!
Release all of it. Thank you!

Get it out. Lance this boil.

I mean, if anybody thinks that you're ever going to get the truth on this in the first place, it's madness. It's madness. Everybody -- I mean, so many important people were involved in this, and it was in the hands of the Democrats for the longest time. Okay?

So they had all of this information. You don't think it was all picked through? And if there was anything about Donald Trump, you don't think that would have come up between 2020 and 2024?

There's nothing in there about Donald Trump. These people are so stupid. This time, we've got him, boys. This time, we've got him.

No, you don't. This time, it's like Wile E. Coyote. This time, we've got the Roadrunner!

No. You're never going to catch him on this. It doesn't work. The guy was the most investigated person in the history of the world, and you've got nothing! Now, it's good to come out.

But if you think you're going to catch a bunch of people on the left, you're not going to. Because they had it, you know, in their possession.

You don't think all of the names were taken out? You don't think things were destroyed, if there was anything? I believe there was something. But I don't believe there's any names in it anymore. You're not going to get the truth on this one. You're just not going to get the truth, but release everything that we have. Everything!

Oh. Oh, by the way, also in the Epstein emails. How come nobody is talking about this one, Stu?

This one is from Michael Wolff, to Jeffrey Epstein. And then Jeffrey Epstein responds.

So Michael Wolff writes, "What's the thumbnail on Nes Baum (phonetic) Foster?"

And Jeffrey Epstein writes back, "Nes Baum White House Counsel, dot, dot, dot, Hillary doing naughties with Vince."

Now, Vince Foster killed himself, you know, and then killed himself at the White House. And then drug himself across the street to the park.

I mean, I don't know -- the Vince Foster thing is so old. And it doesn't -- but why is nobody talking about that one?

Why is no one talking about that?

Also, this the Jeffrey Epstein email bundle, ABC, you don't feel that's necessary to bring that one up?

Huh. Interesting.
