WAIT...Will Cars Get VOTING RIGHTS?!

Artificial intelligence has made some incredible advancements, from ChatGPT 4o's newest voice conversation features to a new device that can isolate someone's voice from across a room. But how crazy will things get? How long will it be until your autonomous car can make money on its own by driving people around while you're not using it? Will it ever start investing that money on its own? And if it's effecting the economy and making its own decisions...will people argue that it should have voting rights?! "The things that are coming ... nobody's prepared for this," Glenn warns. Plus, Glenn reveals that he bought a flamethrowing robot dog ... and is planning on running a few tests.

STU: We were talking about all this new technology coming out with the new version of ChatGPT and everything else. One of the things they've had is the realtime translation. And we've kind of seen these apps. Like, you get it on your phone. You can say something. It will translate. Then you can hold it up for the person, and you can hear it. It's now basically to the point where it's basically realtime. And they were having conversations between Italian and English in realtime conversation. And you think about how many jobs get eliminated by this stuff. Why would a translator be needed?

I mean, it's seemingly like gone now. Maybe with the exception of like high level international, you know, discussions.

GLENN: You mean people might need to have universal basic income?

This is what we talked about, remember? Ten years ago, I said, there's going to come a time, no job. You're going to have to have universal basic income. My solution to that is own your own information. And sell it to these big, huge companies to Google, if you want to. That way, we all share in the information that they've just stolen from us.

But, anyway, there's -- I'll go one better. You now -- there is now a system out.

I've been doing research on security. Because we're rebuilding our ranch.

And, I mean, I'm putting a skiff in it. And everything else.

But I've been looking at all this different security.

And one thing I found just last night. It's amazing. Is you could sit in a restaurant, and you could target somebody, at a table.

You could have an earpiece in.

And you're talking to your device. And you look at the table. And they're across the room.

And you can say, please enhance the female's responses. The voice.

And it will turn their voice up, if you still can't hear, remove the sound of all other talking in the room.

And it will cancel all of the room, talking. Remove the sound of the dishes. Focus only on their conversation. I've seen it in realtime.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: I'll bring the video in tomorrow. I'll show you. It will do it in realtime.

And then, they're speaking a different language. Translate to English.

And you're hearing their voice, speaking in English.

And that's the only thing in the crowded restaurant you can hear.

STU: My God.

PAT: Unbelievable.

Wow!

GLENN: It's incredible. And it's all in realtime.

STU: Is there going to be any need to learn a foreign language anymore? With this, you don't need to, right?

GLENN: No. Uh-uh.

STU: Of course, you go down a generation, when no one knows the language, and who will check the AI?

PAT: Yeah. Nobody is.

GLENN: Remember when I had the conversation 12 years ago with Ray Kurzweil. And I said, Ray, all of this technology makes us weaker. And he said, no. It will make us stronger.

Because you won't have to worry about keeping all this other stuff in your brain. And I said, really?

When GPS goes down, tell my kids to find their way to the store with a map. You have no skill without that.

And he thinks that we're just going to be learning so much more. Yeah, and television will be the greatest teacher on earth. What are you talking about?

STU: Yeah, it's like, it's not really learning. Right?

You could be the best at -- you know, Italian speaker in the world without learning one word of Italian.

And You're right. If this infrastructure were to collapse, or degrade in some major way, there's nothing to fall back on. We don't know how to do anything.

GLENN: There are things you can do.

There's -- in -- in my -- in my ranch, I'm really getting serious about security.

And I'm putting in -- it's not -- I can't remember what it's called. But it's like Alexa. But it's not connected to the internet at all. And it can control the house.

So you say, hey, Eric. I need to speak to everybody at the -- on the outdoors. And it will open up the microphone, and you can talk to everybody in the whole house, if you want.

Eric, call 911. It will do everything. But it's not connected to the internet.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: The -- I'm looking for things to protect the family, honestly.

My robot dog comes in two weeks.

STU: Wait. The thing that we talked about on the air, a couple weeks ago with the flame-throwing robot dog? You've purchased a flame-throwing robot dog? Oh, we have the video, in case people --

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: Are you putting gasoline in it?

GLENN: I don't think I will use the flamethrower. However, they did it in the mountains. And they said, it's great to clear snow.

So look at this thing.

And at night -- look at, the laser.

It has a light on it.

PAT: On, wow. That's cool.

GLENN: The cameras. It will sense body heat.

So it will identify things.

STU: Wait. If you're not going to use the flamethrower.

Why would you want the robot dog.

GLENN: Well, I'm not saying that it won't be ready to use the flame throwing dog.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: For one reason, it can go and prowl around.

We have mountain lines. One thing.

And I would like it to prowl for the mountain lions.

But also, I think that would freak people out.

STU: Yeah. Yes.

PAT: I think it would.

GLENN: Freak people out.

And that, and we're getting a drone called, I think it's the -- one of the ones we're looking at. Is the sunflower.

And it -- you put devices in the ground, of up to 4 acres around your house. Okay.

And it geofences it. And if it senses anything moving on the property, and it can tell the difference between an animal and a human, and if it senses anything moving on your property, it automatically deploys and holds them in place.

Which I just think is -- I mean, technology is so amazing. On the things that you can do. I mean, you spend that.

And you -- you don't have to worry. My family is different. We spend a lot on our security.

And man security. The one thing. When we're at the ranch at night. There's animals and everything else.

We had a mountain lion that was about probably I don't know. 15 yards from me.

Going into the studio the other day. You know, a couple of months ago. And it was freaky. And you're out. And you don't know.

And if you need security. I mean, the stuff that we have now. And it's all autonomous. That's what's so weird.

My son begging me. Please, Dad, let's not put all this autonomous things in there. No. The Chinese are fine. What are you talking about? It will be great.

PAT: So what does it autonomously do then? It just goes out and patrols? It decides where to go and what to do, when it sees something amiss?

GLENN: Yeah. It patrols, and it learns. And it can automatically deploy. Everything will automatically deploy, if there's a breach of the property.

It deploys. It alerts you, then tracks whatever is moving.

And, you know, I -- I just have a feeling, that if you're -- you're coming at night. And you're on my property. And you think you're going to steal something or whatever.

I don't know. The flame-throwing dog might freak you out. Then the drone above your head.

PAT: Yeah. Wow.

STU: I think what's fascinating too. We've all been used to seeing a Boston dynamics video, and jumping. And we think, wow. Imagine when that happens, in the year 2035. That will be available.

This is coming to your house in two weeks? This robot dog?

GLENN: Yeah. I will do a show on it. When we get it and I go up to the ranch this summer and we have it all deployed, I will do a show on it. The technology that is available today, is absolutely, it's -- I mean, it's futuristic. We're living in that weird world now. That we've watched in movies forever.

PAT: What are the odds though, that something can go wrong with it. And it uses its flame-throwing ability to burn your house down. Are there precautions?

GLENN: Yeah. That's why I won't put gasoline in it.

PAT: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: You know, I don't think I need the flame throwing part.

What it has though, is the laser. The laser imaging.

The spotlight. The ability to -- it speaks to you.

PAT: Hmm.

GLENN: Warning. Turn around. And move back.

You know, security is coming.

And, I mean, it -- I just -- I don't know. I don't think I would mess with a robot to go.

PAT: No. And it's going to be so unusual.

People will be stunned by it I'm sure at first.

But just so it doesn't set one of your neighbors on fire, who goes straight across your property.

That would be maybe a bad thing.

GLENN: You know, I'm sorry.

PAT: Oh, tarn it.

GLENN: My son now looks like fire marshal Bill.

PAT: Yeah. Not good.

GLENN: But it was just a little mistake. A little mistake.

No. I don't want to put anything in the flamethrower. I wanted to buy it without the flamethrower.

But you can't. It comes as a permanent attachment.

You can attach other things to it.

PAT: Wow. Really cool.

GLENN: You know on ARs? They have the gun rail.

It has a rail on top of it.

PAT: Unreal. So can you attach a gun to it, then?

GLENN: I don't think so.

But I have a feeling somebody could find a way. Not me, of course.

STU: No.

GLENN: But somebody could find a way to attach a begin to it.

I would put a Byrna launcher on it, in a second.

STU: What happens, if something goes wrong.

Is not even across your property line. It veterans out on its own. There's an error on it.

It does something, it's not supposed to do.

It shoots somebody. Or lights them on fire out on the street.

Who gets blamed for that know.

Who is the criminal? Is it you?

PAT: Has to be the owner. Yeah.

GLENN: This goes back to autonomous cars. It would probably at this point, be me.

But you could -- you could make the case, that it's not me. It's autonomous.

It's the company. I bought it. It geofenced. Why did it cross the geofence?

PAT: Yeah.

STU: It's not -- if it didn't -- if it did something that it wasn't supposed to do as you purchased it, I can't imagine that it would actually be your fault legally.

I don't know. I guess they go after the company. I don't know. That's a bizarre. We have a lot of these questions. That have been coming up. And a lot of answers.

PAT: And it will happen. It's inevitable.

Something will go wrong with some of them. And something bad will happen.

GLENN: This has been a long time thing coming. On what is free will and everything else.

I've been reading about this since the '90s. When it comes to technology.

Your car eventually is going to be able to make money on its own.

For instance, it's going to be -- you can park it. And then it will Uber all day by itself.

So it will make money. But it will also have so much technology in it, that it could invest that money in the stock market.

So --

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: So whose money is that? Is that the car's money? And if it has the ability to affect the economy, shouldn't it have a right to vote?
(laughter)
I mean, the things that are come, nobody is prepared for this. And it's all going to be here by 2030.

This AI could change EVERYTHING by next year

With Elon Musk’s announcement of Grok 4, humanity is closer than ever before to creating AGI – artificial general intelligence – which would change everything. Glenn Beck breaks down what’s coming in the next year with AI, which even Elon Musk called “terrifying.”

GLENN: Let me tell you the biggest story of the day.

And I think it is the biggest story possibly of all mankind, as of today.

It's going to change rapidly.

I don't know if anybody -- did either of you guys watch the Elon Musk thing last night?

STU: No, I did watch a few minutes of it.

GLENN: Okay. Did you, Jason?

JASON: No. I sure didn't.

GLENN: Okay. So the xAI team was there to unveil Grok 4. This is the latest intelligence, and let me be very, very clear.

Last night was not your typical tech launch. This is a moment that demands everyone's full attention.

We are now at the crossroads, where promise and peril are going to collide. Okay?

I have explained to you, for years, AGI.
AI. AGI. And ASI. Narrow intelligence is what we've always had.

General intelligence is the next step. And that is, it's better that man, one -- one, you know, like Grok. Can do everything. That you can do.

Better that you can do.

Okay?

And then there's super intelligence. ASI.

Artificial super intelligence.

That's when things get really, really creepy.

When you hit AGI, the road to ASI could be overnight.

Okay?

We need to understand what's at stake here. Because Grok four brought us closer to that second stage, than ever before.

Grok four is a powerhouse. They demonstrated it last night.

It surpasses the expertise of Ph.D.-level sailors in all fields.

It can get 100 percent on any -- any test for any field, mathematics, physics. Engineering.

You name it.

This is not a search engine.

This is a system that tackles problems, so intricate, they -- they go beyond our existing knowledge base.

Okay?

Let's say there is -- let's say, we have a fusion reactor. And the magnetic containment system goes down. I don't even know what I'm talking about at this point.

But it goes down.

And the top minds all on earth are like, I don't know what to do. Grok 4 can step in, model the physics, design new material, stabilize the system, and avert catastrophe. And it can do it about that fast. Now, this is the capability, that Musk says is just around the corner.

Mark my words. You know, how many -- how many years did I say, between 2027 and 2030, we would start to see this?

STU: Oh, a million times.

That was always --

GLENN: For years. Right? Yeah, always the window.

And everybody, even Ray Kurzweil said, oh, that's way too optimistic. We may be 2050.

And then people started going, 2040, 2030.

Grok shows us 2026 or 2027 is when we're going to hit it. This is the last year, that we have, before things get really weird.

Okay?

Last night, Elon Musk is touting this -- this AI.

And all of the solutions.

And then he says.

Hmm. Probably three times.

Something like this.

And I'm quoting. This is one of them.

It's somewhat unnerving to have created intelligence that's greater than our own.

He then goes on to call it terrifying, twice.

Now, this is a man who has launched rockets, you know, into orbit.

Going to Mars.

And he says, twice!

You know, after he sees the results of it. He says, you know, it's really -- in a way, quite terrifying to see what it's doing.

But we just have to make sure that it remains good!

Oh, okay.

All right. Sure.

Now, the key point in the announcement was the mention of ARC-AGI.

I had never heard of ARC-AGI. I had no idea what it was. But I noticed AGI. And I went, uh-oh. That sounds important. So this is the gold standard. The bench mark testing for artificial general intelligence.

Okay.

As I've said before, AGI. Artificial General Intelligence is a machine that matches all human cognition, across all domains.

Reasoning, creativity.

Problem solving. Not just specialized tasks like playing Go or analyzing x-rays. Everything. For instance, Musk said by mid-next year to the latest end of next year, it will be able to create a full length movie, just from a text prompt.
And do it all at once!

So, in other words, it will say, create a movie, and you just explain the Godfather.

It will do the casting. It will do the writing. It will do the filming, if you will. It will -- score the music, and it will happen that fast.

Almost in realtime. We are nowhere near the computational power now, to do that separately.

But this will do it all at once. It will make a movie with all of it, simultaneously.

So the arc AGI system is the benchmark on how close we are to AGI. Remember, scary things happen at AGI.

Terrifying things happen at ASI. ASI could be a matter of hours, or days after we hit AGI.

Grok 4 scored 16.2 percent on the ARC-AGI scale.

Why is that important? You're like, well, only 16 percent away.

Because last time, it barely broke 8 percent.

And that -- they took that test, last time with Grok three.

And it took us forever to get to 8 percent.

Now, what is it? A year later.

We're at 16 percent. Remember, these things are not linear. The next time, we could be at 32, we might be at 64.

We are on the verge. This is the last year of -- I can't believe I'm saying this. Of normalcy. Okay?

This year is -- we're going to look back at this year, probably two years ago, gosh, remember the good old days, when everything was normal.

And you could understand everything.

This is how close we are!

Everything you and I talked about last night, Stu, about what we're doing in January, make -- put -- does it make it even more critical that that happens like, oh, I don't know.

Right now.

STU: Yeah. For sure.

GLENN: You are going to need to know your values, your ethics, your rights.

You are going to need to know absolutely everything.

Now, Grok 4 is not true AGI yet.

It lacks the full autonomy and the generalized reasoning of a human mind. But it is the closest that we've come.

It's a system that can adapt, innovate, at a level that outpaces specialized AIs by a wide margin.

This is a milestone. This is not a destination, but it's something that should jolt everybody awake. So here's what's coming over the next six months. By December 2025, that's this Christmas!

December 2025, he believes, Musk, that Grok 4, will drive breakthroughs in material sciences.

So, in other words, imagine a new -- brand-new alloy, that is lighter than aluminum. Stronger than steel.

And it revolutionizes aerospace and everything else, or a drug that halts Alzheimer's progression, tailored to a person's DNA.

Grok will drive breakthroughs through material science. So brand-new materials that nobody has ever thought of.

Pharmaceuticals that we never thought could be made.

And chemical engineering, putting together chemicals that no man has ever thought.

That's going for happen by December.

Imagine a chemical compound that makes carbon capture, economically viable. The climate change stuff, that's over.

It will be over.

Because this will solve that! These are not fantasies.

This is Grok 4.

Musk said something that he never thought. He believes that within the next year, by 2027, Grok 4 will uncover new physical laws.

So that will rewrite the understanding -- our understanding of the entire universe.

That there will come -- like there's gravity. Hey, you know what, there's another law here that you never thought of. Wait. What?

That, he says, will come by 2027. This is going to accelerate human discovery, at an unprecedented scale.

I told you, at some point. I said, by 2030. It might be a little earlier than that.

Things will be happening at such a fast rate, you won't be able to keep up with them.

And it will accelerate to the point to where you won't even understand what all of this means.

Or what the ramifications are!

Are you there yet?

In six months, Grok 4 could evolve into a system, that dwarfs human expertise in economics, defense, all of it.

Now, again, it's a bit terrifying to quote Elon Musk. Why?

Because we don't know, what else comes with this.

This is like an alien life form.

We have no idea, what to predict. What it will be capable of.

How it will view us, when we are ants, to its intellect.

Okay?

It is a tool, but it is also Pandora's box.

If Grok 4 is the biggest step towards AGI.

And maybe one of the last steps to AGI.

My feeling is: What I've been saying forever.

2027 to 2030, I'm leaning more toward the 2027 now.

Because of this announcement last night.

We are on the verge of AGI.

And everything in human existence changing overnight.

And as Musk said himself, two times, it's terrifying!

We should act like it is terrifying.

Or risk losing the control of the future, that we're all trying to build. That's the biggest story of the day.

I think! In my opinion.

Bill O'Reilly reveals how Trump can END Epstein files nightmare overnight!

Bill O'Reilly joins Glenn Beck with his plan for how the Trump administration can fix the Epstein Files fallout "overnight." Plus, he explains why he believes there's only one way that former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan get indicted by a grand jury.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: All right. Bill O'Reilly.

Welcome to the program, sir! How are you?

BILL: Welcome. (inaudible)

And right off the bat, I have to correct you.

GLENN: Yeah. You're not alive. What know.

BILL: I mean, you know -- you don't know that?

GLENN: Yeah, yeah. No. I -- I thought you were dead. Anyway --

BILL: You were dead to me, oh!
(laughter)
I --

GLENN: I get it.

BILL: That's just another brick in your wall, Beck.
(laughter)

GLENN: It's good to talk to you, Bill.

Tell me -- you had a conversation with -- with President Trump, what, a couple of months ago, and I talked about --

BILL: Yeah. St. Patrick's Day, he invited me to sit on a cabinet meeting, which he does sometimes.

And he said, look, we've got files, Kennedy, King, Epstein -- what do you think? And I said, well, first Kennedy you've got to put out pretty much everything, which he did. King, he didn't. I don't know why. Because that's important too.

And then on Epstein I said, you have to be careful here, because this is now being used in political precincts. Both sides want to destroy anybody that was associated with Epstein. And the problem is that a federal investigation. They don't make a determination whether you had a -- what kind of relationship you had with Epstein. They just said, so-and-so had lunch with him.

Or maybe so-and-so had -- saw him at a party. And I said, any name of a human being associated with Epstein, in any way, that person is going to be destroyed. Because you know, the press is not going to put anything into context.

So I said, but it's very important that the Justice Department tell the folks what they know.

And you don't have to get specific with anything.

But you have to say, this is the information that we've compiled. And that's not hard.

And I don't know why the Trump administration is not doing that.

GLENN: Wow!

So, first of all, it's your fault, that we're not getting any names. We learned a lot here.

BILL: Probably my fault, but the president --

GLENN: You know what, I think you're right. I don't want all the names of the people. I want to know --

BILL: And I don't either.

GLENN: Right! I want to know the Justice Department has sorted through the things, and then have gone through. And said, this is criminal. This is not. These people are being indicted, et cetera, et cetera. But to come out and say, there is nothing there, I mean, it's -- it's at least --

BILL: It's ridiculous.

GLENN: It's mass incompetence, at least from Pam Bondi. How could she come out and say, it's all sitting on my desk?

And then when she doesn't release it, she says, well, that's because the FBI in New York is thwarting this process. There are people up there, that are trying to keep this from me.

And then she makes no arrests on that. We never hear about that again.

And then now all of a sudden, there's nothing to see.

BILL: Well, listen, Pam Bondi does not make decisions on her own.

No cabinet member does.

All the decisions come out of the West Wing.

So what I believed happened was, Trump was so obsessed with the big bill, with Iran, with Putin, with China.

That this -- they didn't even think about this. Okay?

GLENN: I believe that.

BILL: And it slowly began to unravel. And then I caught it by surprise.

But this is the easiest fix. Somewhere so easy.

BILL: So if I'm in charge, and that would be a great thing for everyone, except you, Beck -- but every other American, if I were in charge, tremendous. You would be in Botswana. Right.

GLENN: Right. Oh, I know.

Yeah. Yeah. I would be the ambassador of the white farmers in -- in South Africa if it were up to you. I know. I know.

BILL: No. You would be wandering around going, I am Glenn Beck. And they would go, who? That's what you'd be doing.

GLENN: That's every day.

BILL: So this could happen within the hour. Pam Bondi announces a press conference for tomorrow.

At that press conference, sitting next to her, is Merrick Garland, everyone.

You had this stuff for four years! Now, I understand that Mr. Garland has gone native and is living in a -- well, we can find him. We can pull him out of there, and have him and Pam, sit there and answer questions in a general way about what evidence the Justice Department of the United States has compiled.

GLENN: Not going to happen.

BILL: That's it!

Well, if it's not going to happen, then President Trump is going to take a hit.

But he's calculating that this will say that it's that night important.

But I don't know why you would not do it.

I just don't know. And I'm usually pretty good at predicting what the president does or does not do.

GLENN: So here's the thing, Bill.

I think he keeps focusing on Epstein. It's not that big of a deal.

It's not about Epstein. It's about justice.

It's about, can we trust the people -- correct!

It's all about credibility and justice.

And he's not seeing that. And I don't know how he's missing that. Because I agree with you.

He's been so busy on so many other things.

BILL: That's right. That's right.

GLENN: This is not at the top of his priority list.

But he did campaign on it.

BILL: Right.

And I don't know if there's anybody inside the White House.

He looks to be annoyed, when this subject comes up.

GLENN: Oh, I know.

BILL: And here's the -- what works -- you have to understand.

A guy like Donald Trump runs it all.

If he's annoyed, nobody will want to annoy him more. Okay?

GLENN: Oh, I know.

BILL: That's how it works. The older arch is, because Epstein got favorable treatment.

By the feds, in the first go around in Florida, that there's a deep suspicion about this case.

But if you break it down, if the Biden administration had any dirt on any Republican associated with Epstein. It would have been out.

And vice-versa.

If the Republicans had any dirt on any Democrats. Now, we know that former president Clinton, was involved with Epstein to some extent.

I don't know if that was a factor, okay? I don't know.

But your right for once. You're right. It's about credibility. It's about the American people trusting that we do have equal justice for all!

So what do you -- what do you make of now the Russia gate thing, coming out, today. Or yesterday.

The FISA court.

The fact that they're now saying, hey.

You know, we need to hold Brennan accountable.

We're like five or six days away.

Weeks away from him, you know, slipping past the -- the statute of limitations.

I mean, all these things are out today.

There's that. There is also the -- let's see here.

The Secret Service -- I think this happened a year ago.

But it's being reported as if it's news.

Secret Service suspends six agents assigned to protect Trump during a Butler assassination attempt. I mean, all these things are coming out. Like, look, we're busy on all these things. And I do believe they're busy on these things.

But it's like the Keystone Cops are in charge of the PR on this. It's bad.

BILL: Well, there's a lot of politics involved in both of those cases. Number one, in order to get Comey and Brennan to get indicted by a grand jury. Federal grand jury, and that's the only passage, you would have to have a whistle-blower, saying, yeah, these guys abused their power. I worked for them. And they absolutely wanted to get Trump.

And they knew the Russia dossier was phony.

And they did it anyway.

If I have that Justice Department.

Then you can get those guys.

If you don't have it, they will not be even indicted by a grand jury.

GLENN: So how is it that we do not have that Justice Department?

How do we not have that Justice Department?

BILL: Well, look. I don't know whether they have a whistle-blower or not, okay?

And if they have a whistle-blower, I want the case to go forward.

I want those two men indicted.

You can't do that, at that level.

As far as the Secret Service is concerned, monumental screw up. Everybody knows it. They fired the morons in charge of it. That woman -- I was embarrassed listening to her, trying to explain.

They didn't know what the deuce was going on. But this was across-the-board, in the Biden administration.

You know, it was a year ago Sunday, this upcoming Sunday.

GLENN: Right.

BILL: And it's just another example of how the Biden administration was the second worst administration in the history of this country. People have no idea how bad it was.

Every single agency was chaotic. Nothing worked. And this is just part of that. And we'll have a slew of stuff on Sunday. Nothing really meaningful.

I mean, they suspended the Secret Service agents, as they should have. They fired the director as they should have. The guy was a nut.

I don't know if there was anything more to that. I doubt it.

I'm more interested in the guy in the bushes. Because they don't know anything about him. I would like to know a little bit about him.

But again, the federal government, it doesn't really matter. It's the government. They never want to tell us stuff, Beck, never.

We always have to pull it out of them. It's almost like Russia or something. Come on!

GLENN: Right. Yeah. Let me ask you, let me take you back again to the Epstein thing.

I noticed yesterday, there were these people who were on the left. Who were taking tweets of mine. That say, look. These things don't make sense. On the Epstein thing. And they just have to be answered. And not anti-Trump at all.

And yet, the anti-Trump people were retweeting that, and they're trying to -- they're trying to get the right to fight against itself again and split people away from Donald Trump, where I don't think this Epstein thing is -- is splitting people from Donald Trump, at least at this point.

And I -- you know, I -- my wife stopped me from answering some of those tweets, yesterday.

Because it's never good, when you -- when I tweet in anger. Which I did.

But -- or was going to. What did you think about how this is being used against the right to try to separate us even more?

BILL: Everything is political. Everybody knows that for you.

But the MAGA people, from the mail I get. And I get a voluminous amount of mail. They're not happy.

GLENN: Oh, I agree. I'm not happy.

BILL: Now, are they going to throw President Trump under the cliché-ridden bus? No. Because to them, the greater good is being served by a fair tax bill.

Trying to cut waste.

Dealing with Iran effectively. And hopefully dealing with Putin.

That's another thing, that's on Trump's plate.

He has to deal with Putin now.

Has to. And that will be the next big story.

GLENN: How is he going to deal with it?

BILL: Lavrov and Rubio, are in Indonesia, as we speak.

And I assume that Rubio is delivering a message. That you either stop, or we're going to just absolutely crush you economically. Which the United States can do. By saying. No bank does business with Moscow.

And if you do business, no matter what bank you are, we're going to put you out of business.

Okay?

GLENN: Yeah. I've only got a couple of seconds. But didn't we already do that under Biden?

BILL: No! We didn't do the banks. We did the sanctions. And the sanctions they can always get around, because China is going to buy as much oil from Russia as possible.

You stop the banks, from doing all business with Moscow? Who is going --

GLENN: Isn't that what the SWIFT thing was all about?

When we kicked them off of SWIFT, wasn't that what that was all about?

BILL: No! Because they can still do a huge business with countries buying their oil.

And they got to pay Putin and Russia for the oil, and that has to go through the banking system.

If you stop the banking system, he can't get paid.

GLENN: Hmm, it's amazing. I'm glad I'm not the president right now. I think he's made some very brave decisions, and he is walking a tightrope. I mean, the world is on edge. And I pray for --

BILL: He looks very tired to me. Very tired. I haven't talked to him in a while, which is unusual. But you're right. You're absolutely right. That's the second time you've been right in this conversation. My God!

GLENN: I know. It's crazy.

BILL: What in the world.

GLENN: I was wrong about you being dead.

BILL: What is happening?

GLENN: It's good -- it's good to talk to you, my friend. Is everything okay? Is everything going well?

BILL: Everything is all right, Beck. We are not only successful, but that's old news. We've been that way for 50 years, but I appreciate you having me on your fine program.

GLENN: Okay. I love you.

BILL: Stu is still breathing.

GLENN: Hmm.

BILL: So that's good. Right.

But I've got a big book called Confronting Evil. Of course, we sent it, and of course you denied getting it. That comes out September 9th, so put me on a dance card.

GLENN: Well, we'll have you on. And you can also find Bill and his YouTube page. YouTube.com/BillOReilly. Or is it The Walking Dead?
(laughter)
He's not even laughing. Maybe he hung up. Bill O'Reilly, great to have him on.
