FBI whistleblower WARNS about agent investigating 2nd Trump assassination attempt

The FBI is investigating the incident at the Trump International Golf Club in Florida as a second assassination attempt against Donald Trump. But is the FBI trustworthy to lead this investigation? FBI whistleblower Steve Friend, who exposed what really happened in the FBI's Mar-a-Lago raid, joins Glenn Beck to expose how the SAME FBI office is handling this investigation! And even worse, the Special Agent in charge was previously in charge of an anti-whistleblower division. To top it all off, he also reportedly had to cleanse his Facebook page of all his anti-Trump posts! So, why is he the agent now in charge of investigating an alleged attempt on Trump's life?! And should we even trust the FBI as a whole after it helped concoct the Russian collusion hoax and suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story?

GLENN: All right. Let me talk to Steve Friend. Steve is a whistle-blower with the FBI. He has -- they have made his life miserable.

But he doesn't care. He's doing the right thing. He's one of the -- he's one of the good guys that used to see, and you used to believe that existed in places like the FBI. He really is that guy.

True blue. Cares about the country and the Constitution. He blew the whistle on the -- on the FBI in Florida.

When they went full S.W.A.T. on Mar-a-Lago. Which we know now, was absolutely unnecessary.

And way out of protocol.

Steve is with us now. Because I wanted to get him on. Because the guy who authorized that, and then dummied evidence up, is the guy in charge now, of the FBI's investigation of this shooter.

How good does that make you feel, Steve?

STEVE: Oh, well. I mean, it actually goes a little bit deeper than that, Glenn. With the media, you need the old chalkboard out here, to explain to the audience.

This is for Jeffrey Veltri. And for your audience's edification, before he assumed his post in FBI Miami, as a special agent in charge.

He was the deputy assistant director of the security division of the FBI. That's the branch that's going after the whistle-blowers. And from that post, he actually said that, whistle-blowers, that they were looking to perch on the ranks, were people that were military veterans. Because he thought they were disloyal.

As well as people who attended regular religious worship ceremonies, as opposed to the coronavirus vaccine.

And then when the word came down, he was going to go to the FBI Miami office.

Christopher Wray and deputy director Paula Bait, and executive assistant director Jen Moore, also another person who -- was involved in getting rid of all the whistle-blowers.

Said that he had to cleanse his Facebook account of all the anti-Trump vitriol that he publicly put out there.

And how he was in a position of authority on the FBI Miami office.

And that's just the office that has the responsibility for investigating the latest assassination attempt.

GLENN: So you think the guy who wanted to purge the FBI of military people, religious people, and Trump supporters, might not do an honest investigation? Is that what I'm hearing Steve?

STEVE: Well, I mean, throw out a little sarcasm here, Glenn. But at the same time, this is the agency that looked at the 2017 Congressional baseball shooting, where a Bernie Sanders supporter showed up, as for other Republicans, then proceeded to try to kill 10 percent of the Republican caucus. And the FBI investigated and said, it was not an assassination attempt. That was suicide by cop.

GLENN: Steve, what has to happen to the FBI?

I -- I was unfortunately, I -- made a statement. Right after my wife called me. And she said, have you heard the news?

And I said, oh, dear God, what?

And she said, they tried to kill the president again.

And then I had people ask me for comments and everything else. So I rushed to X. I shouldn't have.

And made a -- made a statement that was just raw, and then Spaces asked me to come on and make another statement. And that was even more raw.

I shouldn't have done it. I was really, really upset about this. But at some point, I calmed down in the interview. I said, we have to -- we have to fumigate all of the federal government. I mean, if you really wanted to do this right, to return it to factory settings, you have to shut it down, and restart again.

You know, turn it on and turn it back -- turn it off, and turn it back on again. And restore the factory settings to the Constitution.

These things have to be fumigated. They just have to be out. All of these people need to be fired.

Even the good ones. Because we don't know who is good and bad. And we have to start from scratch.

Is that what it's going to take, Steve?

STEVE: 100 percent.

And this goes back to when we were first introduced a couple years ago, and I told you, one of my greatest concerns was that the FBI was going to be one of the major contributors to the boiling pot.

They continued to raise the temperature, and have what's happened within the country.

And the FBI had convinced half of one side, that the other half wants to kill them because they're Nazi terrorists and extremists. And the FBI has just followed suit. They have become more and more politicized.

And if you did not know anything else, and I'm done talking about the good men and women of the FBI. If you don't know anything else about the FBI, and I told you, as an American taxpayer, are you willing to give $12 billion to an organization, which in 2016, took a fake dossier, to a fake counterintelligence investigation of a candidate, and then eventual President Trump.

People opened an illegal Pfizer wiretaps.

Then used those illegal Pfizer wiretaps to find out in 2020, about the ne'er-do-well son of then candidate Joe Biden, having a laptop that was already in the FBI's investigation.

And they stood idly by, at 51 intelligence officials, saying it was Russian disinformation. And then went to social media companies, that told them it was sensitive information.

Essentially to generate a talking point for a presidential debate. You would say, that's a secret police force. Of the republic. We have to control, alt, delete it.

GLENN: Let me ask you, did you see Merrick Garland's speech last week?

STEVE: I did unfortunately. But I was grateful that Tulsi Gabbard reached out to me, and highlight the fact that this is a completely broken and weaponized Department of Justice.

That should also be on the chopping block.

GLENN: Tulsi Gabbard has just been so great.

I just love her.

You know, I saw her say, it was hard not to laugh, if it wasn't so true.

But had he -- this speech that he gave last week, that they are on the up and up. That there's no -- no corruption.

And he won't hear of the good men and women of the Justice Department.

This is -- you have to be insane, Steve.

You have to be insane.

To believe what this government is telling you now, about all of these things.

STEVE: Well, I mean, you have half of the country, that's convinced that the other half is radical, and rabid. And they've been told that for the last eight years.

And because they had preferred the Republican candidate for president in the last two presidential elections. And the Department of Justice is the key on the attack dog. And they are sending out their forces.

Their storm troopers in force, to go after the perceived political enemies of the current administration.

And that includes 89-year-old women who are concentration camp survivors that were praying outside of abortion clinics. And it includes guys like my friend Garrett O'Boyle, who came forward for the right reason at the right time, and made a nonpartisan whistle-blower disclosure.

And he was recommended for perjury charges. When in fact, there's actual evidence, that that was not true.

I was grateful also, that TheBlaze, Joe Hanneman and Steve Baker contributed to his story, highlighting that last week.

GLENN: Did you see, what Robert F. Kennedy said on Saturday?

He's now being investigated for something that happened 20 years ago.

He said, I received a letter from the national March even fisherman's newt. Saying they were investigating me. For collect a whale specimen man, 20 years ago. Now, how does that happen, I mean, at this time, if it isn't the weaponization of government?

STEVE: He doesn't. This is just more evidence, that I don't know what is going to require us to incentivize our elected officials, to actually come to the conclusion, that going after RFK, going after an 89-year-old concentration camp survivor. For them to say, that we have to avert a government shutdown.

Is effectively saying, it is a better outcome for the government to go after individuals like RFK. Rather than have us go through a temporary partial government shutdown.

That looked a lot like Labor Day weekend. And I think the American people -- I don't know how that weekends you to the government being shut down partially, but I think it's more of an optimal solution, that it just hasn't been put forward by the people that we elected. And they pledged to us, that they would end weaponization, and it hasn't happened, in the two years that it's been upheld.

GLENN: Can you tell me, Steve, last question.

What are the questions that have to be answered on this shooting?

STEVE: I want to know, how an individual was posted up at a golf course. Because there's no reason, that he would be out there inspecting it, unless he was out there every single take.

So there's either some sort of operational security issue, or there was some sort of coordination. I was willing. And actually, took the belief, that Butler, Pennsylvania, was due to the myth of competence of the Secret Service.

It just hasn't been tested for four decades. It had lots of failures that always was on. But the fact that this guy was able to be there, at a time when Donald Trump -- who doesn't play golf there, every single day.

GLENN: No. No, no, no.

And it was not on his schedule. It was not on his schedule, that he would be at Mar-a-Lago. Although. You could make, it would be a reasonable -- he has a day off from the campaign. It's a reasonable sumptuous.

Him playing golf. CNN has now verified, that was a last-minute edition. So how did this guy know that?

STEVE: That's a huge question. And it's also the fact that that's a regular location for him to go.

And since he's been in public office, the last almost decade now. You would think there would be additional security measures now. That is just regular threat assessment to harden that place.

And it was not like he was at a Dustin National (phonetic), or he saw -- no, they're entirely different golf courses.

No, that's his regular place. And they did not do that. That's a security failure. The fact that he was able to be there, at that time and at that place.

What people don't understand is three to 500 yards. If you're playing golf, that's far. If you're shooting a rifle, that's barely reaching out, and touching someone by the nose.

GLENN: Thank you very much, Steve.

I appreciate it. Thank you for everything you've done. A man who has been dragged through the mud. And his life made a living hell, just because he tried -- stood up, at the FBI and said, no.

This is wrong. I won't do that. A whistle-blower extraordinaire, Steve Friend.

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.
