THESE videos PROVE the January 6th committee LIED TO US

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson began unveiling previously unseen January 6th footage last night, which was provided to him by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. And the videos PROVE that the congressional January 6th committee, which released its final report last December, LIED TO US ALL. In this clip, Glenn shows some of Tucker’s footage, explaining the lies it proves. So, will those Americans imprisoned based on the committee’s findings receive a new trial? Or is our fair legal system completely over? ‘If every American — Democrat, Republican, Independent — isn't outraged by what our government has just done,’ Glenn says, ‘there is no hope for you. America is lost to you.’

GLENN: So where do we begin, what happened on Tucker last night?

I think -- let me start with what we expected to see. Start with the -- start with cut two. This is what the media has been saying, about Senator Josh Hawley. Listen.

VOICE: You guys have seen the video of Josh Hawley running. How is he going to respond? Because you can't let that sit. It's just awful. He looks like a con. Ha, ha, ha. Running through the halls.

In fact, Josh Hawley was like sprinting past the other senators.

VOICE: I thought he ran like a coward.

VOICE: If you are going to be on the side of evil on this. You're going to be exposed. As soon as the crowd came in, he started running like a baby away.

VOICE: Jim, can we play that back, with audio turned up?

VOICE: They just wanted to embarrass a senator of the United States. Embarrass a man.

GLENN: So handsome, so funny.

VOICE: Why? Just because he ran away like a little --
(laughter)
I mean, what did he do? Yeah, he raised his fists, and he egged the crowd on. But is that a reason to show him pissing his pants on national television?

VOICE: No senators run in the capitol, ever.

It is not what you do in the capitol if you're a senator. You walk slowly.

VOICE: Ah. You do not run for your life. And that's what he was doing there. He is afraid.

GLENN: Right. Yeah. Okay.

Now, that was just one little teeny clip of a longer piece of video, that we found last night with Tucker Carlson. Cut one.

VOICE: When the committee wasn't accusing Republican officeholders of planning riots on January 6th, it was accusing them of running away from those riots like cowards.

In the case of Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, the committee and their allies accused him of both.

VOICE: Josh Hawley is --

VOICE: To prove that Josh Hawley was a coward, the committee released video of him, loping out of the building on the afternoon of January 6th with the police escort. The tape became a staple on social media. Democrats laughed with derision.

VOICE: Later that day, Senator Hawley fled after those protesters he helped to rile up, stormed the capital. See for yourself.
(music)
(laughter)

VOICE: But, in fact, the surveillance footage we reviewed showed that famous clip was a sham, edited deceptively by the January 6th committee.

The clip was propaganda, not evidence. The actual videotape shows that Hawley was one of many lawmakers being ushered out of the building by Capitol Hill police officers. And, in fact, Hawley was at the back of the pack. The coward tape was a lie. One of many from the January 6th committee.

GLENN: Unbelievable.

STU: So he did run -- he's just running with a huge group, that being should find out by police.

GLENN: Police. Police are. Let's go. Let's go. Let us go.

He's the -- the last one after dozens of people, that you see.

STU: Incredible.

GLENN: So they knew this. They knew this.

So when we said that the January 6th committee is nothing more than a sham, and Liz Cheney was on it. And running cover, for the Democrats. And for the liars.

I shouldn't say just Democrats. For anyone who is lying to keep their office.

So she is -- she is lying. She knows it.

And they're doing it, just to discredit.

Justice comes to mind. Our flag is supposed to stand for justice, for all.

Okay. Josh Hawley didn't get any justice. But he's the least of your worries. Josh Hawley didn't get any justice. Will he get any justice?

Will the people on the January 6th committee led by Adam Schiff, a guy we already know lied about Russian collusion.

Is that man going to face impeachment?

Probably not. So is there justice for all?

Because this is not a matter of opinion. We now have it on tape.

Okay. That's, as I said, the least of the -- of the problems.

Let me go to -- let me go to Cut 22, please.

This is about -- remember the shaman? The QAnon shaman.

That everybody was like, he's crazy. And he looked crazy. In all of the tapes, that he saw, he looked crazy.

He didn't look violent, but he looked crazy.

STU: I think he was wearing horns on his head. That's the correct way to make him look crazy.

GLENN: Yeah, no shirt.

So nobody is for the shaman. And he became the symbol.

In fact, I think he got more time that happen anyone else, four years in prison.

Watch. Listen.

VOICE: Dangerous conspiracy theorist dressed in outlandish costume, who led the violent insurrection to overthrow American democracy.

For these crimes, Chansley was sentenced to nearly four years in prison, far more time than many violent criminals now receive.

What did Jacob Chansley do to receive this punishment?

To this day, there's dispute over how Chansley got into the capitol building. But according to our review of the surveillance video, it's very clear what happened once he got inside.

Virtually every moment of his time inside the capitol was caught on tape.

The tapes show that capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley.

They helped him. They acted as his tour guide. Here's video of Chansley in the Senate chamber. Capitol police officers taken to multiple entrances, and even try to open locked doors for him.

We counted at least nine officers who were within touching distance of unarmed Jacob Chansley. Not one of them even tried to slow him down.

Chansley understood that Capitol Police were his allies. Videos shows him giving thanks for them in a prayer on the floor of the Senate. Watch.

VOICE: Police officers to allow us in the building (inaudible).

GLENN: If you watch this videotape, you see the police officer. The Capitol Police, in hallway after hallway after hallway. Either leading him, ushering him, or directly following him. Just one step behind him.

Walking through a whole crowd of police officers. They were clearly assisting him.

Now, how did that guy, get four years in prison. When he was being escorted by the police.

It's hard to think, that you're being a criminal and doing criminal activity, when the police are opening the doors for you, and here, let's get you into that Senate chamber. Oh, well, this door is locked.

It's pretty hard. Now, we've heard him give a prayer. Thank the police.

That is a conspiracy theory. How dare you. He's saying that, because he's a terrorist, and he's trying to mislead.

Was he?

STU: It's interesting, if you haven't seen this clip too. You might think, well, look, the place was being invaded. They knew a couple of Capitol Police wouldn't stop this giant crowd. So therefore, they're just trying to make peace. You can make that argument in certain videos I've seen. This one though, he's by himself. He's walking by himself, through the crowd.

They could have easily stopped him. Easily stopped him.

GLENN: They were just following him. They assisted him.

STU: Yeah. Here's where you go. Several videos, in front of him.

And they're all alone. I mean, it's not -- again, I can understand, if you've got 300 people in front of you. 400 police officers. Trying to tackle each one of them, is not probably the right maneuver. In this situation, though, they could easily have handcuffed this guy and put him aside.

GLENN: This is footage, that he wasn't allowed to use.

STU: You have to open this trial up again. How can they not have access to this?

GLENN: Open this trial up again. Do you really think, open this trial up again?

STU: You don't think they should do that?

GLENN: Really? Oh, if this were anything else, and somebody was serving four years, and you knew the district attorney, knew this and held this back. You would dismiss it, and release that guy. And apologize. And go after the district attorney.

STU: I would describe that as opening the trial again.

I guess maybe -- what I'm saying, take the result that you have. And either reverse it -- he may still be guilty of trespassing or anything else.

GLENN: You can't try him twice. You can't try him twice.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And the guy needs a new trial.

If you're going to throw him in jail. You need a new trial.

Well, they've already tried him once.

And when they tried him, they lied. Why would he have to stand trial again.

STU: Again, I've watched a lot of law and order episodes.

But it doesn't seem fair, that if this video exists, he should not have access to it, in his defense.

It seems incomprehensible, and against our legal system.

GLENN: They did everything they could, to keep all the information away from their attorneys, to paint these guys.

I mean, I have to tell you, if every American, Democrat, Republican, independent.

If every American isn't outraged by what our government has just done, there is no hope for you. There is no hope. America is lost to you.

This should be as shocking. I was outraged on January 6th. And I still am outraged.

STU: Sure.

GLENN: At the people that were breaking down the doors. Breaking in the windows. Calling for -- hitting police officers.

Those people go to jail. They would go to jail. But everyone must receive a fair trial.

This -- you -- I'm sorry.

But when you have two things, one, just this video of the police escorting him into the Senate chamber.

You got to ask yourself, why would police do that.

With everything that was going on. Why would they escort this guy, into the Senate chamber.

Why? Why would you do that?

STU: At the very least, that question should be asked and answered at that trial? Maybe there's a great answer for it. I don't know what it should be. But certainly answered.

GLENN: Should be asked, at the at least affidavit conference, with the two officers.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: So why would you do that.

Why would you do that? Now, here's the second part. I'll give it to you, in one minute. Imagine for a minute, that you're pregnant.

Hey, you're a man. That's all right. It's not difficult.

Father isn't in the picture. Let's just say. It's going to be you and the baby. And you're really scared. And everyone is telling you, it's not really a baby. It's just a clump of cells.

You don't feel like you have any options. You maybe don't have a lot of people you can trust. And the people you trust, just go, it's painless. It's quick. It's easy. It's your body. It's your choice.

You don't have to be scared. Now, what do you do?

Especially if you know inside, which I think most women do when they're in this situation. That's not right.

But I don't know what to do. I can't handle the baby. Now, imagine someone else comes along. Shows you the other way.

You see the baby forming on an ultrasound, and you know that's a baby. I -- I can't. I can't.

The ministry of Preborn does this every day. Then they hope the mother for up to two years afterward. This is a group of people, that care not only about saving the baby's life. But helping the mother and the child.

$28. It's the cost of dinner. You can introduce an at-risk baby, to her mom, via an ultrasound. You not only save the soul of the mom, the life of the mother, who is going to tear herself apart or just be sucked into darkness. And you'll save the baby.

I think that's worth 28 bucks. Dial #250. Say the key word baby.

That's #250. Key word baby.

GLENN: Now, we told you about Ray Epps. And we have been questioning, who the hell is Ray Epps?

We have done a whole episode on TV. About Ray Epps.

Unless he's a government informer. So what's the truth on Ray Epps?

Well, he testified. He testified he wasn't at the Capitol. Once that thing started, he wasn't at the Capitol. Here's Tucker Carlson, last night, with the video.

That doesn't lie.

VOICE: One of the enduring mysteries of January 6th, is the role intelligence and law enforcement agencies played in the events of that day. We know there was some number of undercover federal agents in the crowd at the Capitol. Officials have since admitted that under oath.

But what exactly were they doing there? The January 6th Committee worked hard to hide the answer to that question.

We do know from contemporaneous videotape that a mysterious figure called Ray Epps, encouraged the crowd to go into the Capitol. For some reason, Epps has never been indicted for that. There's no question he did it.

VOICE: We need to go into the Capitol!

VOICE: Under public pressure, the January 6th committee interviewed Ray Epps. Epps told the committee, he never entered the Capitol. And therefore, never committed a crime. His text messages showed, at 2:12 p.m. he boasted to his nephew, that he had, quote, orchestrated the protest at the Capitol. He had admitted he helped get people there.

Yet, curiously, congressional Democrats considered Ray Epps an ally, not an insurrectionist.

Tonight, we can tell you, that at the very least, Ray Epps lied in his sworn testimony to the January 6th committee. Epps testified that when he sent the text messages to his nephew, he had already left the Capitol grounds to return to his hotel room. That is not true.

The surveillance footage we found, shows that, in fact, Ray Epps remained in the Capitol for at least another half an hour. You're seeing that on your screen now.

What was Epps doing there?

We can't say. But we do know that he lied to investigators. The January 6th committee likely knew this too.

Democrats had access to the same tape. Yet, they defended Ray Epps. No honest investigation would do that.

GLENN: Cut 24.

VOICE: The January 6th committee knew perfectly well that Brian Sicknick was walking normally through the Capitol, after he was supposedly murdered by Trump supporters.

And they know that, because they saw this tape.

We can be sure, because the footage contains an electronic bookmark that is still archived in the Capitol's computer system.

That means, that investigators working for the Democratic Party, reviewed this tape.

They saw it.

But they refused to release the tape to the public. Why? Because this tape would shatter the fraud they were perpetrating on the country.

Because hiding the truth served their political interests.

GLENN: Stop. So this is Brian Sicknick. A Trump voter. A police officer, who they say, Trump supporters killed by bashing him in the head.

Okay?

We know that's not true. Because of the medical examiner's report. He died the next day, or the day after. From something unrelated. Stroke-related. But they say not related to being struck on the head.

He also in this picture is wearing a helmet. So he's struck in the head with a helmet. That makes it even more different. You know, still bad.

Don't hit a police officer anywhere, with anything.

However, they say, that killed him. They held -- they held a -- I think a mock laying in state. Now that you know the truth.

They knew that he wasn't injured. This videotape shows him, quite energetic.

Picking things up. And putting them away. Escorting people, telling them where to go, et cetera. Et cetera.

After he was hit.

So you have a government now, that has lied to you, at the highest levels. And everywhere in between.

So now what, America? Now what?

You have district attorneys, you have judges. You have the president. You have Congress. You have the Senate.

You have the Capitol Police. Local police.

What do you -- what do you trust?

What's left to trust?

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

EXCLUSIVE: Will RFK, Jr. Change Glenn's Mind?

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. once called Glenn a traitor because he thought Glenn's opinions on climate change were "dangerous" and should be shut down. But now, he's one of the biggest CRITICS of censorship. So, what changed? Glenn decided to sit down with the independent presidential candidate to find out.

SHOCKING: You Need HOW MUCH Money to “Live Comfortably” in Each State?!

With inflation still on the rise, Glenn and Stu review another shocking number: how much money you need to “live comfortably” in America. The numbers have gone through the roof and it’s no surprise that the most expensive states are blue states. Thanks to inflation, a single adult now needs to make over $100,000 a year in order to live comfortably in many states. So, can you afford your state?

GLENN: Okay. So there's a new number out now, on what it costs to live in the United States of America. It's a little higher than it used to be.

And I -- I don't know if anybody has noticed they're having a hard time making ends meet.

Comfortable to live comfortably is defined as the monthly income, needed to cover a 50/30/20 budget, which allocates 50 percent of your earnings for necessities like housing and utility costs, 30 percent for discretionary spending, and 20 percent for savings or investments.

STU: Wow. I don't think a lot of people are living like that.

GLENN: Nobody is living like that. Nobody is living like that.

STU: That -- but wait. Percent of what? If you're making $10 million. You know. What is it -- you don't need to have a 50/30/20 lifestyle to live comfortably, right?

GLENN: Right. Right.

They're saying this is the minimum. This is what it takes to, you know, live comfortably. In America.

STU: So -- this is not talking about -- I think Jeff Bezos is pretty good. I don't think he needs an article.

STU: You're saying, they're basically reverse engineering the number you need to hit that. Is that what you're saying?

GLENN: Yes. Yes.

Okay. All right? Jeez.

STU: I was trying to understand.

GLENN: Here they are.

Most costly states: Massachusetts. $116,000.

STU: Hard-core conservative state.

GLENN: Hawaii. You'll see this a lot. Hawaii, 113.

STU: Another conservative -- red state.

GLENN: California, 113.

STU: Big red state there.

GLENN: New York, 111.

STU: Wow.

GLENN: I'm rounding out the top. Topping out the top five is Washington State, with 106.

STU: Another big red state. That's amazing. So $100,000, and you cannot live comfortably.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: That's incredible.

GLENN: Okay. Now, to live comfortably in these states, you need to earn double what most single earners typically make. The median income for a single full-time worker is around $60,000. The national median for living comfortably is $89,000.

So there's a shortage there.

STU: And those are statewide numbers to point out. It's a lot worse in these cities.

Like, there was a time. I don't know this is eight to ten years old now.

When I remember looking at this. They gave you these guide lines, what you need to earn to buy an average home in the market. In the market of San Francisco, the -- several of the players on the roster of the San Francisco giants, did not earn enough money, to buy the average home.

GLENN: It's crazy.

STU: In the market.

GLENN: So let me go through this. Alabama, to live comfortably, $83,000.

Alaska, $96,000.

And I don't know if that's ever -- I don't know if you're ever comfortable living in Alaska, unless you can change the climate completely.

GLENN: Yeah. Right.

Arizona, $97,000. Arkansas, 79

STU: Gosh.

GLENN: California, 113. Colorado, 103. Connecticut, 100. Delaware, 94. Florida, 93.

Think of that. In Florida, it's 93. In Colorado, it's 100. Georgia, 96. Hawaii, 113. Idaho, 88. Illinois, 95. Indiana, 85. Iowa, 83. Kansas, 84. Kentucky, 80. Louisiana, 82. Maine, 91.

Why? Bear traps? Maryland.

STU: That's a northeast state.

GLENN: Maryland, 102. Massachusetts, 116. Michigan, 84. Minnesota, 89. Mississippi, 82. Missouri, 84. Montana, 84. Nebraska, 83.

STU: A lot of these -- these are like the bargain basement states. You are having $85,000 to live comfortably.

GLENN: I know. Yeah.

STU: That's just putting away some money for retirement. That's not living -- you're not flying private.

GLENN: I know. Yeah, but you're not living paycheck to paycheck. If you would live that way. If you would do 50/30/20.

STU: Right. Right.

GLENN: Nevada, 93.

Nobody does that. Do you know anybody who is young, that put 20 percent of their salary away for savings?

STU: Depends what you mean by young. As you're starting out, you're just trying to make it, pay your bills. As you get older, you're trying to put some money away.

GLENN: 20 percent?

STU: It's hard to do.

GLENN: Really hard to do. Nevada, 93.

STU: By the way, 50/20/30. What are the taxes on this one? This is post-tax revenue, I assume.

GLENN: Yeah. Where are the taxes?

STU: Another 30 is going to taxes. So which part of it are you taking out?

GLENN: That's why nobody saves. New Hampshire, 98. New Jersey, 103. To live in New Jersey. New Mexico, 83. New York, 111. North Carolina, 89. North Dakota, 52.

STU: North Dakota. This is -- this is hwy people go to the Dakotas, I suppose. It's --

GLENN: Is it worth Dakota, though? You don't even have the presidential thing on the mountain, that Dakota.

STU: That's true. Was that the Doug Burgum state?

GLENN: Yes, it is. Fifty-two.

STU: You got those eyebrows. They are kind of like -- on the Mount Rushmore of eyebrows. I don't know if that counts.

GLENN: Ohio, 80. Oklahoma, 80. Oregon, 101.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: Pennsylvania, 91. Rhode Island, 100. Oh, my gosh, for Rhode Island!

South Carolina, 88. South Dakota, 81. Tennessee, 86. Texas, 87. Utah, 93. Vermont, 95.
Virginia, 99. Washington, 106. West Virginia, 78.
That's a state you could live in. Wisconsin, 84. Wyoming, 87.

Wow.

STU: First of all, the red and blue state is -- I don't know if it's perfect. It's darn close to perfect, as far as the difference is.

GLENN: It is. It is.

STU: You look at that, and you think -- it wasn't that long ago, that we would say, oh, my gosh, nap guy is earning six figures. Doing really well.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: That's just not even doing really well.

GLENN: No.

STU: It's the way you're supposed to plan for your future. And now you need to earn six figures, in most states. Or at least close to most states.

GLENN: And it's going to get worse. That's the problem. It will get worse.

How will companies be able to keep up with it? How is that going to happen?

GLENN: The presses.
STU: Yeah. But eventually, people can't afford to produce the products that people want, and people can't afford to buy the products that they need.

STU: I mean, you just recited the slogan for Bidenomics. That's exactly --

GLENN: Yes, I did. Starts bottom up. Bottom up. First people to be heard.

The bottom. And eventually, it's heard all the way up.

The -- in another remarkable story, the IMF has come out and said, that Biden has got to stop money.

Printing money, and spending money.

The International Monetary Fund, sounded the alarm on the Biden administration's rampant spending as, quote, out of line with what is needed for long-term fiscal stability.

STU: No!

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

STU: What? It feels like it's right in line with the exact -- what you're supposed to do with each budget is spend trillions of dollars than you have.

I thought that's the way you're supposed to be fiscally responsible. What is the 50, 30, 20 number for the United States right now? It's like 80, 50, zero. Eighty, 50, negative 30. Right?

That's what we're doing. The savings is negative 30 percent of the budget. We're spending mandatories, like 80 percent of what we have. Then there's another 50 percent discretionary. It's insanity. And we're getting to the point very soon. Just the interest on the money already spent will be more than our entire defense budget.

GLENN: We will have to borrow over a trillion dollars a year, just for the interest.

STU: My God.

GLENN: I mean, this is unsustainable.

And I really don't understand, why more people can't see this.

STU: You keep seeing this word.

I don't think it means what you think it means.

What Would Happen if Israel RETALIATED Against Iran's Missile Attack?

Iran’s attack against Israel made barely any impact (despite what Iran is telling its people). But will Israel strike back? It has the right to, and many Israeli leaders seem to want to, but SHOULD it? Glenn and Stu discuss whether it’s worth risking World War III, or whether Iran is too weak to do anything else.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. So let's just recap what we know now, what happened over the weekend with the Iranian attack on Israel. First of all, the Iran state TV used footage from the Texas fire. Also, there was footage of One Direction.

STU: The band?

GLENN: The band. And it was Israelis, panicking while under attack while under missiles and drones. Unfortunately, it was just a throng of excited One Direction fans.

STU: Wow, the fact that those things look the same, may make you rethink things if you're a One Direction fan.

GLENN: It really does. They also use a picture of a forest fire in Chile. So, you know, they're running all kinds of lies. I don't know if their people understand that they really made no impact at all.

STU: I'm kind of -- look, I kind of hope -- this is weird. I kind of hope they are able to convince their people, that they made an impact.
Because maybe this will somewhat calm down.

GLENN: So the president boasted the attack had, quote, taught a lesson to the Zionist regime. They were chanting with their fists in the air, death to Israel. Death to America. Yay. And Hezbollah supporters were out in the streets, of southern Beirut, honking their horns and celebrating.

And they warned that Jordan would be the next target, if it took any measures in Israel's defense.

So everybody is just like holding back.

Except for Israel. Now, my goals may not be the same goals, as the Israelis. My interests are, let's not have any terrorism here in America.

And let's try to bring peace to the world.

Israel has played this game for so long. They're not going to sit back. At least the word we're getting from their -- their war committee, was that it was a brawl.

The defense minister stated yesterday, that Israel's confrontation with Iran is not over yet.

The public security minister demanded a crushing attack, against Iran. Another minister, declared Iran's audacity in such an attack, must be erased.

Meanwhile, Iran's mission to the UN said, should the Israeli regime make another mistake. Iran's response will be considerably more severe.

And warned the US to stay away. Okay. I don't know what they can do with their -- their missiles. Quite honestly.

I think it was embarrassing. If that were us, well, that would be us. Because Joe Biden is in charge. Maybe Joe Biden helped them with planning of this mission. But that were us. That would be humiliating.

Absolutely humiliating.

And, I mean, it's the -- wouldn't you say, it was the most lopsided thing you have seen, possibly ever? With the amount that they fought back?

STU: Yeah. It goes back to a couple of examples. The first gulf war.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: Remember that.

GLENN: Except they fought back. And they did hit targets. This one hit -- they say three -- the outside is ten. That they hit ten -- that missiles hit ten things. They fired over 300.

STU: 300, right. The other one that comes to mind. The way we reacted in Afghanistan, when the Taliban started taking it over again. We kind of just all ran. And that -- that seemed -- that was embarrassing. I was embarrassing that way. The way I think Iran should be embarrassed this way. That's if their intent is to actually get a lot of damage. Look, we have an alternate theory. We talked about it yesterday.

They floated a bunch of flying lawn mowers over there. With 12 hours notice for a reason.

To say, hey. Shoot all these town.

We don't want to start an international war. If we don't do something in our country. Our people will overthrow us.

GLENN: So you're sitting in Israel.

And I say, Stu. What are you going to do? Now, you're an Israeli.

You're in the defense cabinet. And I say, what are you going to do?

Because the whole world hates us right now?

And if we retaliate, then we're in trouble. Should we just walk away and call this thing?

GLENN: Again, there's so much to weigh here. And I'm an idiot. But I will tell you, my initial instinct is, you have a free hall pass to --

GLENN: No. No. No. No. Your first impression is you're an to it. I just don't want that to get lost.

STU: The second impression was --

GLENN: The first one was, again --

STU: I'm an idiot. Number two. And I should not be making these decisions for any nation. We should be clear about that. That's not a good policy, because I'm an idiot.

GLENN: Sure. You're an idiot. You could work for the Biden administration.

STU: I will say, maybe I should leave the country. This one here, because it seems that's the path to success these days.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: But I will say, what my thought would be, is you have a free hall pass to do another Syria type of operation. Right?

You can -- of course, are justified. If I was an Israeli, you would be justified to launch at least 300 missiles towards Iran. You're justified morally to do so.

However, what I would like to do is tamp this down, so it doesn't inflame into something worse. If you were are to do something like they did in Syria. Where you took over some important, overseas. Not in Iran. Type of operation. That would actually benefit you.

Not like as a show of power or strength. If you're Israel, you don't need to do that. What you need to do is do something that would actually benefit you.

And I think it would be difficult for the world to be all that upset.

If you went and did another operation like that.

GLENN: I forgot.

I was going to say, no. No. No.

STU: That's a smart answer for an idiot.

GLENN: I forgot you were an idiot. It would be tough for the world to say.

You remember, you're a Jew here.

STU: Right. So they --

GLENN: They can say whatever they want.

STU: They can say whatever they want.

GLENN: They're always the pad guy.

STU: But there is a line.

The world wasn't overly outraged about the Syria operation in the first place.

Iran was.

And everyone was talking about what their response would be.

No one was like, oh, gosh. I can't believe they did that.

Some people did, of course.

Look, there was 150 countries, that voted not -- that voted to condemn Israel, over the whole Gaza situation.

And when given the opportunity, I think it was Austria, that proposed an amendment that said, hey. Shouldn't we condemn Hamas for October 7th in this thing?

Ask they voted no.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: Of course, they said no to that.

At some level, you can't care at all, what some of these countries think.

They will just think, Jew equals bad.

But I think to not make this go over the top. And flame out of control.

And also, get and done, that you're completely justified for. And will benefit for your country.

If you can walk that line. If there's another target like that. That seems highly justified and appropriate.

What do you think? You're not an idiot, right? You're a doctor.

GLENN: I'm a doctor, so I'm not an idiot.

STU: Do you notice this? Does anyone in the audience, even notice he does this? He asks these tough questions, and he never gives his own answer. It's pathetic.

GLENN: Because I'm trying to move the show. I'm trying to move the show.

STU: Move the --

GLENN: See, you don't want me. You don't want me anywhere near the buttons of any -- for any country.

Because we would run out of missiles quickly.

Because I have -- I have a short attention span.

And I also have a short fuse. It would be like, hmm. They did what.

Yeah. Launch.

I would be over there, saying, the world is going to hate us, anyway. They're building a nuclear weapon supply.

We know now what they're capable of doing from the sky. That's great. But if they get a nuclear weapon over our border, any way, shape, or form.

Millions will die.

And we know they're serious. And the rest of the world, can say whatever they want. But take up out their nuclear facilities.

STU: In country.

GLENN: In country.

STU: Look, he's been wanting to do it for a long time. And I think that's entirely justified.

GLENN: He has to. He has to.

No one in the world will do it, until he ignites one of those things.

STU: That is true. It probably does extend this though, right?

That's the risk.

GLENN: Oh. It's going to --

STU: Netanyahu has been wanting to do this forever, and I think has been looking for an opening to do it.

GLENN: Justifiably so.

STU: Justifiably so. Again, I'm not being critical. If I were Israeli. I think probably I would be for a much more aggressive response.

GLENN: Enough is enough.

STU: But I'm not. And I'm -- I'm thinking more selfishly frankly as an American.

GLENN: Yeah. Me too. Me on top.

STU: I think that's appropriate for us to do. America first is a dumb sort of slogan, but also very true.

It's also misused by many factions over the years.

GLENN: Yeah. Correct.

STU: But, I mean, it is the appropriate priority list for the United States.

GLENN: If you're going to take care of somebody, you don't swamp the lifeboats. That is what we're doing with our border. We're swamping the lifeboats.

How had we help anybody, if we can't help ourselves?

How will we help anybody, if we're fighting terror here?

I don't want terror here. But we've already swamped the lifeboats with a whole bunch of terrorists, apparently that are already here.

But we're not doing anything about it. So my America first kind of has to go to, let Israel do what Israel cares to do.

They can handle it. They're big boys. They can handle it. We'll handle our thing over here.

Now, with that being said. I know that Iran will not let us get away with that.

Iran will immediately activity. They're already activating the people. Who do you think. Hamas is paid for by the Iranians. So when you're in New York City. And you're holding a Hamas flag, you are doing the bidding of the Iranians.

So they're already here. And it's coming. And I would like to delay it, quite honestly, as long as possible.

But, you know, let Israel be Israel.

By the way, we have a news from Israel's Channel 12 News. They carried a report, that the country's Air Force, which includes US-made 16s, fifteens, and F-35s are already gearing up to deliver a retaliatory counterstrike against Iran.

According to the report, the strike will be intended as a message that Israel will not allow an attack of that magnitude, to pass without reaction.

That's actually good. That's a good reaction from them. Because doesn't that sound limited?

I'm just looking for happy things.

Turning rocks. Oh, no. That's a friendly worm. That's a friendly bug.

The strike intended a message, Israel will not allow an attack of that magnitude, to pass without a reaction.

You’ll NEVER GUESS Who’s Behind the "Free Palestine" Bridge-Blocking Protests

“Free Palestine” protesters connected to the group “A15 Action” recently blocked roads and even the Golden Gate Bridge to demand the America stop supporting Israel. This caused Glenn and Stu to wonder if there has ever been ONE person whose mind was changed by these kind of disruptive protests. Glenn also reveals that this group is far from “grassroots.” You’ll never guess who is paying for the bail and legal fund for A15 Action...

GLENN: The free Palestinian protesters.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Love them.

STU: They're doing a great job out there. In the streets. Blocking airport access for people.

GLENN: Bridges. Bridges.

If I were in San Francisco traffic. And I had to use the Golden Gate Bridge, and you blocked it, I would be having great thoughts about you.

You could be there and saying, you know, we love Jesus. We love Jesus. And by the end, by the time I got home, I think I might hate Jesus, because of you. You know what I mean?

I'm serious. It's the fastest way to turn me against you, is to block me from going home.

STU: Right. And I mean this sincerely. Has there ever been an example of this tactic working?

Has any person, in history, ever been convinced by not being able to access the thing that they wanted to go to?

Gosh, you know, I was really pro-Israel. And then I got stuck in traffic for eight hours. And now I love the Palestinian cause. Has that ever occurred?

GLENN: No. No.

But here's the good news.

They are being arrested.

And they're being immediately released.

Yeah, because there's somebody stepping in to give them bail money.

And legal support.

Yes. Yes, so it is. Come on. Come on. Come on. Guess. Guess. Guess.

Come on.

STU: Kamala Harris.

GLENN: No. That's too obvious.

STU: Kamala. Tweeting. Tried to bail out criminals.

GLENN: Yeah. But not this time.

STU: Thanks, Kamala.

STU: More obvious?

GLENN: Yeah. More obvious.

STU: George Soros.

GLENN: George Soros.

STU: We figured it out.

GLENN: George Soros is bailing people out. Now, who would have seen this coming?

The protest which took place in dozens of US cities, including San Francisco, Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, were organized by A15 Action. A newly formed group, that worked to coordinate, a multi-city economic blockade, on April 15th in solidarity with Palestine.

You know, I really -- I forgot, you're blocking me, from going home on tax day. That makes me even more favorable to your point of view.

STU: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

GLENN: The group's website, directs users to bail and legal defense fund, hosted through Act Blue, the Democratic Party's online funding juggernaut. Those who donate to the fund, the Act Blue page said, are sending money to the community justice exchange, which provides money, bail, court fees, and fines and other legal services to community-based organizations that contest the current operation and function of the criminal, legal, and immigration detention systems.

Oh, my gosh!

The exchange is the project of? Come on. Come on. You've got George Soros.

Come on. Who else is in there? What organization? Come on.

STU: Open Society.

GLENN: Oh, that's good. That's good.

Think bigger. Think bigger. What do they start?

STU: Oh, gosh.

GLENN: The Tides Foundation. Yes. The Tides Foundation.

It's a network funded by Soros and other liberal billionaires. The protesters, who organize the global event, under the title A15. Targeted economic choke points, with the express purpose of causing as much financial disruption as possible, according to their website.

You know, that's the kind of thing I really want to be involved in. I go to the websites. And I'm like, I don't know.

How can we inflict as much damage on this country, fiscally as possible? And then I realized, I've already done my part. I voted for people in Congress.

And so, really, that's all you have to do. There's nobody that can do more damage that than people in the House and the Senate.

That's why I don't protest. Anyway, the A15 protesters on Wall Street, were photographed wearing Hamas bandanas and flying Hezbollah flags.

STU: But they're just -- Glenn, they're just --

GLENN: They're for the people.

STU: A humanitarian cause.

GLENN: Absolutely.

STU: That happens to also.

GLENN: Problem with the Hezbollah flag.

STU: Right. Hamas. Hezbollah. They seem like wonderful people.

GLENN: Banks located to the protests were vandalized with red stray paint and graffiti that read, funder of genocide, and free Gaza. Those protesters later blocked the Brooklyn bridge. Which is one of my favorite bridges to block.

STU: Oh, really? See, I only like to get the Brooklyn bridge.

I like to sit in traffic on the Brooklyn bridge, for 12 to 15 hours.

For climate-related purposes.

I like the bridge for Gaza purposes.

GLENN: Yeah. I do really want to know. Those people who are Gluing themselves to freeways and things.

Because whatever. I don't listen to you. I just look at you, as a moron. So I don't really check in on you what you're protesting for.

STU: I am of the opposite.

I will absolutely oppose anything that you're doing.

If you are -- if you're Free Gaza. I'm going to -- if I was pro-Palestinian, I think I would flip my viewpoint just based on the fact that I was sitting in traffic.

GLENN: Well, see, I don't look. Because I never think it's anything I'm for already.

STU: It never is. More capitalism!

That never happens.

GLENN: It's not like, I'm gluing myself to the freeway because I like steaks.

No. Not happening.

STU: No. You're right. That's true.

And I don't think it's any secret of their success. Right?

The left does a lot of things strategically that I think are -- are -- I don't want to say admirable. But like things that are -- if conservatives can benefit from learning a little bit from, at times. Not necessarily, certainly not the ends.

And some of their tactics are down right evil. Some of them are smart. They message things well, at times. There are certain things they do.

You can look at. This is not one of those tactics, I won't want to keep up.

You're taking -- you're taking life, and you're making it bad for the people you're trying to convince. This is the opposite of what you're supposed to do.

GLENN: Okay. Let me just point out. How do you learn that lesson, when you've burnt cities to the ground?

STU: Yeah. And everybody in the city is like, I support you. I don't think they did, though. Did they?

Even in Minneapolis, the defund the police thing, died on the vibe. None of this stuff has worked.

Like, there are certain parts of the movement, right?

That have occurred. I think you can even look at those. I don't remember anyone blocking streets for gay marriage.

Right?

I don't remember that. They worked, they tried to persuade people over a long period of time. And were successful.

GLENN: Be really hard to not just step on the gas.

I saw a guy who was trapped by these people. And someone glued themselves to the freeway in Germany or something.

Don't piss the Germans off. Man, don't do it. Especially if they're driving a Volkswagen. Hello!

But, anyway, he was -- the guy was trying to get through, and these people were sitting there. And one of them was glued. And he just kept going. And they were like, what are you doing? You're trying to kill us. And he's like, no. Just trying to get through.

And -- and he did almost kill one of them. But he got through. He got through.

And, you know, I didn't have a lot of sympathy for the people that were glued to the streets. And maybe that was just me. But I don't know how they expect this to work. Other than causing real damage. Kind of like Occupy Wall Street. I don't know. Did it work? Did it work?

I contend it did.

STU: You think Occupy Wall Street worked?

GLENN: Uh-huh. Why did they go away? Why did they go away?

STU: They kept raping each other all over the place. Lots of rapes.

GLENN: Lots of rapes. Lots of bad things. Why didn't they go away all of a sudden?

They had everything. They had the media on their side. They had Hollywood on their side. They had everybody on their side. What happened?

It's almost, I'm going to go out on a limb here. It's almost as if the big banks. And all the big corporations got together and said, look, just leave us alone.

Like me, I always joke. Someone comes into my house.

Just leave me alone. You can do whatever you want to the wife and children. Just leave me alone.

It's almost what they get, I think. Look, just leave I say alone.

Why did their funding of all of these things that BLM, and the extreme left was all about?

Why did they start funding all of those things coincidentally, just about the time that Occupy Wall Street left?

Why?

Leave us alone.

And we'll fund you. Leave us alone, and we'll help you.

I think that's what happened. So when you say, well, gluing them themselves to the streets.

I don't know. I don't know. Except, they're blocking I, now. And not the big bankers.

And I'm not sure you have anything they want, besides, oh, I don't know. Oh, everything of yours.
