and events was on. That was pretty good
0:14
here. You are you talking about his picks?
0:16
John Trump's picks for vice President? We asked
0:18
him about that. That was why he came
0:20
out. We talked about it and then he
0:23
came on a dog about something else. It
0:25
was important am I don't know some about
0:27
spending nutrient popular? Got on? There are some.
0:29
Yeah, so. But we asked
0:31
him about that is his answer
0:33
was surprising interesting. I
0:35
don't. Know it was worded carefully. It was. There
0:38
was worded in a way that might make
0:40
you think that potentially some of his. Associates
0:43
have. We had conversations. I thought he allowed
0:45
for the idea that he left. He said
0:47
that if he hadn't talked to Trump, he
0:49
hurts didn't look you up to decide for
0:51
yourself. A lot of great stuff on today's

2:18
You're missing, Dave. The benefit of
2:21
the Man-Back Throw Zone. So
2:23
what I am, I collect American
2:25
history and I collect it to
2:27
preserve it And I want
2:29
to tell the whole story of American history
2:33
The good and the bad But probably the
2:35
best example is we have a lot of
2:37
stuff from Patton and he was an amazing
2:39
guy but we also
2:41
have one letter from Patton where
2:44
he is a monster and I
2:46
mean a monster
2:48
no better than the Nazis and
2:53
You know we all have these conflicts
2:56
in us some bigger than other and
3:00
We wanted to make sure that we showed
3:02
both sides of Patton that we don't we
3:04
don't make anybody into a hero Without
3:07
showing this is the heroic stuff they
3:09
did and this is the questionable or
3:11
really bad stuff they did Jeffrey
3:15
Epstein's black book is
3:18
up for auction Now
3:21
this is not The
3:23
book that he had when he died. This
3:25
is a book from around the year 2000
3:28
that he lost Somebody
3:31
had it they found it in the street of
3:33
New York It's
3:36
been verified that it is his handwriting and it is his
3:38
book They
3:41
picked it up and then just put it
3:43
in a box and left it in a
3:46
storage, you know unit And ever since this
3:48
Epstein thing has been going on They're
3:52
like I gotta find that book or gotta find the book. I know as but
3:54
where did I put that book? They went through their storage unit and found it Then
3:57
they brought it to Alexander are
4:00
historical auctions which is a really good
4:02
auction house. They
4:06
put it up with unredacted
4:08
names and numbers. You
4:10
can't see it. You can go and
4:13
visit the book if you're interested in buying it and
4:15
look through it. You can't take pictures of it or
4:17
anything else. But
4:19
the black book is for sale. They're saying it's going to
4:21
go between $100,000 and $200,000. My
4:27
question is,
4:30
is this
4:32
just a passing big but still
4:34
like a passing blip? I'm really
4:36
not interested in the Lindbergh
4:39
trial. Who cares?
4:41
You know what I mean? It
4:44
was a big thing at the time. Is this
4:46
a big thing just at the time? What
4:49
would change that I think is was
4:52
he or will we ever
4:54
find out he was an operative for
4:56
our government or other governments? I
5:02
don't know. That's kind of the rumor right now, right? That he
5:04
was CIA. What's
5:07
your first thought on Epstein's book, having it?
5:10
I'd love to have it just to read
5:12
the names on here. You'd have
5:14
to believe though if it was like, George
5:17
Soros, like we'd already know about it. That
5:20
page would be missing. Right, yeah, exactly.
5:23
All the S's are missing and the
5:25
G's. I
5:27
kind of think that there's maybe not going
5:29
to be a massive story in it though
5:32
it is an incredible ... Well, if we
5:34
were considering really buying it, I would
5:36
send somebody up to look through it and
5:38
tell me is there anything in it? I
5:41
mean worth, if it's like squeaky from, I
5:43
don't really care. I
5:45
would care if squeaky from had done that. That
5:47
would be crazy. Yeah, be nuts. That's
5:50
an interesting one I mean because is it
5:52
just, here's a guy who did some really
5:54
terrible thing, like Jeffrey Dahmer merchandise, you're not
5:56
buying that. Yeah, I'm not buying that. I'm
5:58
not buying Michael Jackson stuff. I don't
6:00
really. Would you buy OJ stuff? Because
6:04
that was pretty big. Yeah. Yeah,
6:06
if it was something really big. That wasn't just
6:08
a flash in the pan. It was pretty big.
6:10
I think that's an OJ Simpson baseball card. That's
6:13
all I have on the off. A baseball card?
6:15
Oh, not baseball. Wow, that's incredible. That is a
6:17
huge story. Shut up. He played
6:19
baseball. A football card. Yes. Yeah,
6:21
I mean, because I think OJ is on the level
6:24
of Lindbergh, right, historically. Yeah,
6:26
historically. Us right now, obviously, is a lot
6:28
bigger because it happened in the 90s. Right.
6:31
But, you know, in 50 years, I don't know that
6:33
it is. The only thing that would be worth in
6:35
that is somehow or another finding a way to capture
6:41
the African-American response
6:43
to OJ, setting
6:46
him free because he was
6:48
finally able to beat the
6:50
man. Right. And
6:52
by the way, jurors from the trial have said that's what
6:55
they did. Yeah. They're going to be
6:57
making things up. Right. And
6:59
so if you could capture that because
7:01
we're having the opposite right now,
7:04
you know, people not looking
7:06
at the facts of anything because they
7:08
want somebody to win one way or
7:10
another. And so that
7:13
is something to happen with jurors. And so it would
7:15
tell that story, but I don't know how to capture
7:17
that. And remember, you know, the Epstein thing is tied
7:19
into powerful people, even if you just, you know, Prince
7:21
Andrew, right? Like, I mean, there's certainly, I don't know
7:24
that he's in that book per se, but I will
7:27
say that my instinct is yes, you
7:29
should bid on it, largely because
7:31
I think one of the things you do at
7:33
the museum and as part of your mission
7:35
statement over there is to preserve
7:38
history that will be erased. And
7:41
man, the Epstein thing falls directly in that
7:43
category. Like we know about it right now,
7:47
kind of. I don't think we know the whole story. And
7:50
the powers that be will do everything they can
7:52
to make sure that goes down some memory hole
7:54
that we don't remember it like the Lydberg case,
7:56
right? They want that to go away. So actually,
7:58
I think that's a good point. preserving
8:01
some of that history I think of
8:07
course if it's there's nothing interesting and i
8:09
suppose maybe that's not it you know the
8:11
case but man i i don't
8:13
know it seems like we still don't know the story on that
8:16
one but they'll let you see the whole thing before you buy
8:18
it you can go
8:20
out right now and make an appointment and
8:23
you can go up i think about sending jason up there
8:26
and you go up and uh...
8:28
and make an appointment and seeing it see
8:30
it see what's in it uh...
8:33
you can't take a photograph of it uh...
8:35
and you know no copies of it uh...
8:38
but uh... you can come back and then he could
8:40
tell me this is what's in it this these are
8:42
the kinds of names that are in it that
8:45
he could remember you
8:48
need to send someone with a photographic memory i
8:50
know do we have a listener with a photographic
8:52
memory that would be great i will say it
8:54
seems like if they're showing it to people and
8:57
we don't have any leakages uh...
9:00
on on the actual story would just announced
9:02
it yesterday okay yeah so at
9:04
some point you think that the story would leak
9:07
out that if there was something in there and
9:09
it's early because if you are if you are
9:11
qualified to go see it you know you're you're
9:13
you're your bid your buyer and
9:16
if there's no one of the radio you don't want
9:18
anybody to know until after you have a rack right
9:21
uh... they each very in length from only a
9:23
few lines to over ten or fifteen lines or
9:25
more each each of the
9:27
entries have several more names included
9:30
additionally ninety four names bear black
9:32
hand applied check marks five
9:34
have been highlighted in yellow all
9:36
five names including that of
9:39
president donald trump interesting that that one
9:41
is out are well
9:43
recognized financial and industrial figures
9:46
the significance of the check in highlighted
9:48
names is unknown the details included in
9:51
the vast majority of the entries arm
9:53
uh... are most extensive epsi
9:55
not only includes the name address and telephone number
9:57
of his contact but in most cases also adds
10:00
other residential addresses and for
10:19
the front desk and five
10:21
apartment numbers corresponding with telephone
10:23
numbers at 301 E
10:25
66th Street. This address was
10:27
home for many young models,
10:30
girlfriends, pilots, and lawyers associated
10:32
with Jeffrey Epstein. The
10:36
book contains entries for
10:38
former Ford models, CEO
10:41
Kate Ford, as well as an entry for
10:44
Massouse, which lists 24 women's
10:46
names and numbers with pager numbers as
10:49
well. The history of this criminal
10:51
relic is fascinating. The mid-1990s musician living in
10:54
Manhattan discovered the book lying on Fifth
10:56
Avenue sidewalk in Midtown. She eventually
10:58
put it in storage was not until 2020 while
11:01
cleaning out her storage unit that she realized
11:03
it belonged to Jeffrey Epstein. She
11:05
reached out to several media outlets, not this one,
11:07
who failed to react. Assuming
11:09
that the book was
11:12
a copy, she listed
11:14
it on eBay where
11:16
it was purchased by
11:19
a graduate student
11:21
in the Northeast who has possessed it
11:23
ever since. For how much do we
11:25
know how much? No, don't know. Wow.
11:27
2004 Epstein Black book was discovered by
11:29
the FBI and used in legal proceedings
11:32
but this copy which came to light
11:34
after Epstein's death was not considered as
11:36
evidentiary importance at the time of its
11:38
discovery. According to Business Insider, the
11:40
1731 names contained in the two volumes together
11:45
do not appear
11:47
in the 2004 book. During
11:50
its six-month investigation, Business Insider journalists
11:52
had respected forensic document examiners, applied
11:55
forensics, examined the book to determine
11:57
its authenticity after a researcher... looked
12:01
at the binding and the data of
12:36
course of course donald trump allen
12:38
der schuit frederick
12:40
fakai you know that is f e
12:43
k k a i no uh...
12:46
christy hefner and edward kennedy
12:51
not very far cry french hair
12:53
stylist and entrepreneur of course well
12:56
who doesn't have a hair so french hair stylist
12:58
in their black makes a bunch of products though
13:00
it seems like a big uh... yeah i think
13:03
company making a stop it appears
13:05
so what do you want your first thought well i
13:07
don't know do we not say yes go
13:09
go look at it or you know i'm looking
13:11
at it and then and
13:14
then depending on the name significance in
13:16
history long-term what
13:19
dirt bags we had in office i
13:21
guess i
13:24
mean you're gonna find out some things about people right i
13:27
although it doesn't say what again that doesn't say
13:29
why they're in the book right i mean we
13:31
know valenters with thing like we already know that
13:34
the person who accused him came out and said
13:36
that maybe wasn't him yet because he's the
13:39
attorney right but that's not necessarily going to have
13:41
met you don't know if they give you some
13:43
major story that's gonna change history i will say
13:45
that we do we also i'm sorry we do
13:47
also know that donald trump through him
13:49
out right of my logo yet
13:52
they've been falling out long time ago because
13:54
he was i
13:56
guess trying to recruit some of the females uh...
13:59
and Trump said get out don't come back.
14:01
Yeah, no, they definitely it's the Trump thing is I
14:05
Think it's a complete disconnect to the Epstein story
14:07
from long long ago But
14:09
I will say that otherwise it would have made
14:12
political hay out of that Yeah, the Clinton one
14:14
is much more I think significant. Yeah, you know
14:16
and yeah that one is I And
14:19
the glitter flip I think the Bill
14:21
Gates one too You have to some
14:23
of his comments have been really weird
14:25
about that really weird really weird his
14:27
wife's I think Yeah, Bill Gates has
14:29
flown under the radar as one of
14:32
you know Just a you know weird quirky
14:34
guy for so long. I think he may
14:36
end up being one of the true villains
14:38
of our time Hmm. I
14:40
think that's quite a lot of people believe that Mm-hmm.
14:43
I mean the things that he
14:45
wants to do on population control.
14:47
Yeah, his is Connections there
14:49
his divorce from his wife who was like
14:52
get away from Jeffrey Epstein We know who
14:54
he is and he wouldn't get
14:56
away from Jeffrey and Epstein and they divorced
14:59
That's kind of a big deal. Mm-hmm kind
15:01
of a big deal. Yeah when he's occasionally
15:03
been pressed on that it has not gone
15:05
Well forgets it's not know what happened there,
15:07
but something weird was going on very yeah
15:09
And you know he stole all the
15:11
technology from Xerox in the first place Great

the podcast. This
16:41
is the best of the Glenn Beck program and we really
16:43
want to thank you for listening. JD
16:45
Vance is going to be joining us here in just a
16:48
few minutes as soon as he jumps on the phone. I
16:50
know he's got a very limited schedule but we wanted to
16:52
talk to him about what was going on with the Trump
16:54
trial. Also want to hear you know
16:57
about him possibly being vice
16:59
president. How was that? How
17:01
those conversations going? Currently tied for the second
17:03
or he's the second favorite right. You have
17:06
two people tied for first which is Doug
17:08
Bergman, Tim Scott. I don't see either of
17:10
those happening. That's just, I mean again we're just
17:12
guessing here. We don't have any inside info on his
17:14
process. I mean Doug Bergman is, come on. You can't
17:17
even, you don't even know his name. I mean yeah.
17:19
Now Bergman is real. It's turning into Bergman at any
17:21
moment but the eyebrow guy is
17:23
out. I just don't see. Yeah and
17:25
I don't think, I know we're getting reporting on it. I
17:27
just don't believe it. It's just my
17:29
own vibe. I don't know. That's not, I
17:32
don't think Tim Scott is strong enough yet.
17:35
He might be later but he's not strong
17:37
enough yet. I just don't see it. He's
17:39
not strong enough in defense. I
17:41
still think he's not going to cross those
17:43
loyalty lines that Trump likes. I don't know. I could
17:45
be wrong. I would love JD Vance to be vice
17:47
president. JD Vance is, I think he would be. I
17:50
think he's a real choice. I mean again he doesn't,
17:52
he does not check any of the intersectional identity
17:54
politics boxes but again we're told that Trump doesn't
17:56
care about that. I certainly don't care about it.
17:58
He picked my. He picked Mike Pence
18:01
last time. He picked Mike Pence last time.
18:03
But he picked Mike Pence, I think, because
18:05
of his Christian evangelical... He saw that as
18:07
a weakness. I think that's revealing. And I
18:09
think that's personally why he will pick Tulsi
18:12
Gabbard. Because the weakness
18:14
this time is women. Women
18:17
and also abortion. He
18:19
believes... Now look, I... This
18:21
is not how I feel, but every piece
18:23
of reporting from inside the White House and Trump's
18:25
public statements back up the idea that he thinks
18:28
if he goes too far on abortion, he's going to lose. Yes.
18:31
That's what it sounds like. And that's what all
18:34
the reporting inside of the campaign indicates. He's very
18:36
much trying to walk this
18:38
middle line. He's not abandoning what he did
18:40
with the judges, but he does not
18:43
want that to be the number one thing. And
18:45
a guy like Mike Pence... I wouldn't either. ...would
18:47
point in that direction. So you think the religious
18:49
conservative angle may be not the one he goes
18:51
to here. Tulsi Gabbard, I
18:53
hate to point out, was a Bernie Sanders
18:56
campaign volunteer. I know. Think
18:58
of this as Donald Trump. I like her,
19:01
but... What I worry about is his pick
19:03
is going to be the party after
19:06
Donald Trump. In four years, that's the setup
19:08
for the party. Who is it going to
19:10
be? J.D. Vance, I think,
19:12
would be great. Tulsi Gabbard is not the
19:14
Republican party. But if you look at this...
19:17
She's not a conservative, as she would tell you. Right.
19:20
She's not. But if you look at
19:22
it from his perspective, he's got all this divide.
19:25
Everybody says he's a divider. All right.
19:27
Here's somebody who I don't agree with on a
19:29
lot, but she agrees on certain principles. That America
19:31
is great. America should come first.
19:33
We shouldn't be in all these foreign wars,
19:35
etc., etc. I
19:38
could see her, if not Vice President,
19:40
I could see him... This is not
19:42
my hope, but this
19:44
is what I could see him doing. He
19:46
would think I can appeal
19:49
to the people who are
19:51
women in the suburbs by saying, come
19:54
on. She's
19:56
more like you. She
19:58
works with me. we're we're not what
20:01
everybody says we are right at a central
20:03
cast right out of trample with a lasting
20:05
right out of central case and i could
20:07
do you think it's possible okay we have
20:09
jaydee vance on with us now hello
20:11
jaydee how are you hey glenn how
20:14
you doing great great to talk to you first
20:16
i have to ask you uh
20:19
how the talks to be vice president going on i'm just
20:22
saying uh
20:25
well you'll be the first to know glenn i
20:27
know of course the media is very curious than
20:29
this but i've never yet had a conversation with
20:31
dal trump about being a vice president though really
20:33
until i do i i will
20:35
assume that this is a lot of media speculation
20:38
wow what you do about nothing well we're pulling
20:40
for you actually uh we're pulling for you um
20:43
so uh let's talk a little
20:45
bit about trump and the trial
20:47
this trial is is
20:49
more than just a kangaroo court
20:52
this is there is there's nothing
20:54
to this trial how do you think
20:56
it's going well
20:58
i think it's i mean the only thing that really
21:00
matters of course is the court of public opinion uh
21:02
because such a sham trial i don't think that it's
21:05
going to hold up on appeal you
21:07
know the basic argument here is that
21:09
he falsified documents in order to
21:11
commit a crime but they can't even identify which
21:13
crime he allegedly committed so it's very hard to
21:15
imagine anything like that can hold up
21:18
on appeal now look it
21:21
is highlighting i think how corrupt the justice system
21:23
has gotten in certain parts of our country right
21:25
so you have the number three person
21:27
at biden's doj who jumps ship and
21:29
goes and joins a local prosecutor office
21:32
to participate in this by the way
21:34
he's also turns out a dnc paid
21:36
consultant then you have of course
21:38
a source funded prosecutor who brings the case it's
21:40
being presided over by a literal
21:43
campaign donor to biden harris who
21:45
is preventing donald trump from even
21:47
speaking on the merits of the case
21:49
in the in the court of public opinion so i
21:52
think it's it's really helping trump politically
21:54
which again i think is all that
21:56
matters because those people who
21:58
have any sense of fairness recognize that
22:00
this is a sham trial and so long
22:02
as it's helping Trump get elected I think
22:04
that's the thing that matters most. I will
22:07
tell you that I think the line of
22:09
maybe the year, we're not finished yet, but
22:11
I think the line maybe of the year
22:13
is Donald Trump when he came out I
22:15
think it was yesterday and said the
22:18
Constitution is well worth
22:20
me going to jail for. It's
22:23
worth more
22:25
than me trying to stay out of jail. So
22:27
put me in jail and I thought wow
22:30
that I mean that
22:32
is a strong, strong
22:34
stance. As a
22:36
way of driving home mistakes doesn't it?
22:38
Yeah this guy is
22:40
literally trying to prevent
22:42
him from speaking. The Democrats have made
22:45
this a major political issue. The Democrats
22:47
are fundraising off of it. You know
22:49
Biden Harris campaign sending around fundraising
22:51
emails. Oh isn't it funny that Donald Trump's in
22:54
court today sent us money and
22:56
yet the judge is preventing Trump
22:58
for participating in what is
23:00
right now the most lively political debate
23:03
of the country. So it
23:05
really I think again just drives home how
23:07
much these guys have lost their minds and
23:09
you know I've
23:11
even seen polls here that Biden,
23:14
people who plan to vote for Joe Biden recognize
23:16
this is fundamentally a sham trial. Now here's the
23:18
crazy thing about this Glenn is yeah I do
23:20
a lot of hostile media. It's one of the
23:22
things I like to do is sort of taking
23:24
our case to the other side and I've sat
23:27
in green rooms with people who months ago
23:29
were angry at Alvin Bragg for bringing this
23:31
case because it was such a weak case.
23:33
Right. But now that it's the only case
23:35
that's actually gone to trial because the rest
23:37
of them have fallen apart you see the
23:40
media treating this as legitimate and I don't
23:42
think anybody believes them right. There's just no
23:44
credibility here and everything that further erodes their
23:46
credibility is in my view a good thing.
23:48
So let me ask you a couple of
23:51
couple of other questions. I know we have limited
23:53
time. Let me first stop with the campus protest
23:55
funding and Biden
23:58
holding back aid bullets
24:00
to Israel. Isn't this
24:02
exactly what Donald Trump was impeached
24:06
for? He held back congressionally
24:09
approved javelins
24:12
from Ukraine, and
24:15
now Biden is holding
24:17
back ammunition from Israel.
24:20
What's the difference? There
24:22
isn't any difference, of course. The
24:24
only real difference is I think that
24:26
Donald Trump actually was engaged in some
24:29
diplomacy and was negotiating with the
24:31
Ukrainians and also other folks
24:33
in the region about how much aid they should
24:35
be providing. Of course, it shouldn't just be America,
24:37
whether you support Ukraine or not. What's
24:40
different about this is I think you're taking one
24:42
of the few truly bipartisan issues in this country
24:44
that we should be supporting our ally Israel, and
24:47
you're allowing it to be dictated by the
24:49
far left. Now, I have a little bit
24:51
of a different take on this, Glenn, because
24:53
I think what Biden is doing is
24:55
really killing two political birds with one
24:58
stone here. One, as I've been warning
25:00
for months, we don't have enough ammunition
25:02
to send to Ukraine and Israel simultaneously.
25:04
We have to pick one. Well,
25:06
the Biden administration, I think, has picked
25:08
the corrupt Ukrainian regime over our long-term
25:10
ally of the Israelis. I think it's
25:12
disgraceful, but simultaneously, he's going
25:14
to his left flank and saying, the
25:16
reason I'm doing this is
25:19
because, you know, B.B. is bad and because
25:21
we don't like the way that B.B. is
25:23
prosecuting the war. So he gets to tell
25:25
his left flank what they want to hear
25:27
while covering for the fundamental failure of his
25:29
foreign policy. If one of
25:31
the reasons, Glenn, it was such a
25:34
bad idea for Republicans to give Biden
25:36
this security fundamental, it's such a big
25:38
bill that it sort of allows Biden
25:40
to hide his priorities and to have
25:42
his cake and eat it too. The
25:47
other thing that I want to talk to
25:49
you about is the health care that is
25:51
now going to illegal migrants. How
25:53
does this president get
25:55
away with so
25:58
much executive power? Nobody
26:01
gave him the authorization to do this.
26:04
Nobody gave him the authorization to spend
26:06
all of this money. Nobody gave him
26:08
the authorization to relieve or to forgive,
26:11
quote, all those loans and time
26:13
to the back of the taxpayer. This
26:16
is a very important concept
26:19
in our Constitution. It's why
26:21
congressmen have to be reelected
26:23
every two years because
26:26
we want them to answer for the
26:29
money they just spent or allowed to
26:31
be spent. Well,
26:34
you're right, Glenn. I mean, look, we know that at
26:36
this point, Biden is a tyrannical president who will violate
26:38
the law, and it is a violation of the law.
26:42
But I don't want to let us off the
26:44
hook here because we should know at this point
26:46
that when we appropriate Joe Biden a
26:48
big chunk of money, he is sometimes
26:50
going to violate the law in the way that
26:52
he actually distributed it. And this
26:54
means that Congress actually has to take
26:56
a little bit more assertive of a
26:58
role, has to be willing to cut
27:01
off certain appropriations, not write Biden these
27:03
blank checks. This
27:05
is really important, Glenn. Congress
27:07
increasingly, again, with
27:09
this massive security supplemental, when you write Joe
27:11
Biden a check, you can't go to the
27:13
American people and say, well, he's
27:16
doing this illegally. Well, that's true, but you know
27:18
he's going to do it illegally, so you have
27:20
to be a little bit more careful about how
27:22
we give this guy authority in the first place.
27:25
And I have to say here, Glenn,
27:27
this giving healthcare to illegal aliens is,
27:30
it should offend
27:32
every single American. We
27:35
have a social safety net in this
27:37
country. Medicaid exists for impoverished people to
27:39
help pay their medical bills. If you
27:41
allow folks who should not be in
27:43
this country to begin with, who are
27:46
here illegally, to literally take from the
27:48
mouths of American poor children so
27:50
that we can fund their healthcare, then whose
27:52
side are you really on? And
27:54
I think it's becoming increasingly clear that
27:57
Biden doesn't like the people who
27:59
currently make a bill. up the citizenry of this
28:01
country and he's trying to change the way the
28:03
country operates, the way that we
28:06
distribute resources, the way that we vote and
28:08
that's what his illegal immigration push is all
28:10
about. Well, I just cannot believe that those
28:14
at the very bottom of the scale, the
28:16
ones that the Democrats have
28:18
said they care about the most forever, the
28:21
black families that are trapped in
28:23
Chicago and are barely making ends
28:26
meet. How are they
28:28
to view the government
28:31
when they're not getting, you know,
28:33
they're not being put up in a hotel someplace,
28:35
they're not getting all of these perks and
28:38
yet we're doing it for people who just
28:40
came here. I mean
28:42
if I were on the receiving end or
28:44
on the need end of this and I
28:47
was a citizen, I'd be like, dude,
28:49
what are you doing? You never did
28:51
this for me, you never did this for, you
28:53
know, my family as we were struggling. Absolutely.
28:57
They just came here and a lot of them
28:59
came here illegally, Glenn. We have veterans who can't
29:01
afford health care who are sleeping on park benches.
29:04
At the same time, we're handing out free
29:06
health care to people who violated the law
29:09
to come to this country in the first
29:11
place. It's completely disgraceful and I think a
29:13
lot of people should be looking around and
29:15
saying, who does Joe Biden actually stand for,
29:17
right? The Democrats say that they care about
29:20
the little guy. Let me
29:22
just tell you just a brief story, Glenn. I have
29:24
a dear friend of mine who's, you know, getting up
29:26
there in years who is now
29:28
eligible for Social Security. He basically found
29:30
out that there were a number of
29:32
illegal aliens who had used his Social
29:34
Security number to get a whole host
29:36
of benefits, including Social Security benefits. When
29:39
he went to the government and said, hey, I'd like to
29:41
know who's using these things so I can report to the
29:43
police, they basically told him, no,
29:45
we don't reveal people's personal information. And
29:48
illegal aliens who are committing Social Security
29:51
fraud. This is the kind
29:53
of country that Joe Biden has created where
29:55
the very things that we do as a
29:57
country to help the least fortunate are being
30:00
given away to a legal aliens
30:02
instead of american citizens i cannot
30:04
stand it jayd thank
30:06
you so much senator jaydee vance from uh...
30:08
ohio always good to have you on thank
30:10
you i
30:19
want to welcome back to the
30:21
uh... program ryan morrow he is
30:23
a counter-terrorism expert in investigative researcher
30:25
for the capital research center where
30:27
he monitors extremist groups in the
30:29
u s he's also an adjunct
30:31
professor uh... at regent university
30:33
ryan welcome back to the program how are
30:35
you i'm doing well thanks
30:37
for having me back uh... thank you so much for
30:39
doing all of this work uh... it
30:42
is it's it's
30:44
crazy that when i read
30:46
your work now i'm brought back to
30:49
two thousand eight and i see exactly
30:51
the same names the same circle of
30:53
people all returning to
30:55
do what they did during occupy wall
30:57
street that
31:00
that's exactly right that it's the same model on
31:02
the fact that this is more
31:04
successful uh... and
31:06
and for various reasons and
31:09
uh... i'm sorry to say it appears
31:11
to be more militant uh... because i
31:13
have an increasingly militant and revolutionary uh...
31:16
because we we've been monitoring probably around
31:18
two hundred fifty three hundred different groups
31:20
all at once uh...
31:22
and we haven't fully investigated all of them and
31:25
my expectation based on my past
31:27
work uh... that you're familiar with the muslim
31:30
brotherhood and so he needed to be a
31:32
bad type thing was that uh...
31:34
this would be a coalition and people
31:36
would be surprised by the proportion of
31:38
which are islamist extremist but there'd be
31:41
you know what kind of characters i've
31:44
got to do so far my list which is only
31:46
a portion of what we have i've come
31:49
up with over a hundred and twenty terrorism
31:52
tied organizations involved in the
31:54
protest the almost all of
31:56
which support hummus and the
31:59
october seventh of and I can prove
32:01
it because they all said it. So
32:03
there isn't much diversity here. This
32:05
was conjured up and
32:08
is being implemented by a
32:10
group of Hamas supporters, some of which have ties
32:13
to Hamas more directly. So
32:17
I remember in 2010
32:20
I said you will see an effort from
32:24
Islamists, Marxists, anti-capitalist,
32:26
communists, they'll all
32:28
come together to disrupt the order
32:31
and try to collapse the West. And
32:33
I was made fun of because people
32:35
said, like the Marxist and the Islamist
32:37
have anything to do with each other.
32:40
And I said they're not going to be calling
32:42
each other up, they just all
32:44
see the opportunity to destroy more
32:47
of America and destabilize us.
32:50
Do you think that's what's happening? Any of that? Yeah,
32:54
well you're being proven correct and you're going
32:56
to be increasingly proven correctly once we finish
32:59
our huge expose, breaking down the entire
33:01
makeup of this group and all the
33:03
messaging that they're using. And you're
33:05
right, they don't call each other up but they
33:08
do communicate on social media, the Telegram chants and
33:10
the rest of it because their language, their way
33:12
of talking is now so
33:14
similar because it's so revolutionary and they've
33:17
kind of combined their different causes into
33:20
one thing even if they disagree on what
33:22
happens after their revolution succeeds. They kind of
33:24
put that off to the side. But
33:27
yes, that coalition is coming together and
33:30
I would say there's kind of like
33:32
four concentric circles where on the outermost
33:34
layer you have the more
33:36
typical Muslim Brotherhood style groups that are
33:38
a bit cautious but they imply their
33:41
support for criminality, some bills
33:43
that they can't come off. We condemn
33:45
terrorism but like if you know how they talk,
33:47
you know what they're saying. And then you
33:49
have the next circle in where they're very similar
33:51
but they go a step further and passing around
33:53
guides on how to do criminal acts of protest
33:56
so they're a little bit more militant and then
33:58
you move further into the next circle. in
34:00
and those are the people that are saying,
34:02
well, we need to escalate on the college
34:04
campuses. Let's fight the police. Let's get a
34:06
little bit more destructive. And then there's this
34:09
inner circle that I think can be
34:11
accurately described as domestic terrorists. And I'm
34:13
watching what they're saying to each other
34:15
and what they're advocating and they're passing
34:17
around descriptions and guides
34:19
on how to do every conceivable violent
34:21
and active sabotage that you can
34:23
think of. And their debate and
34:25
their argument, and they seem to be gaining ground
34:28
is that we're having so much success that
34:30
yes, of course we should escalate on the
34:32
college campuses and the typical places we show
34:34
up, the congressional offices, all that. But we're
34:36
really doing so well right now that we
34:39
should broaden out our campaign and not make
34:41
it about influencing opinion and policy, but
34:43
imposing our will. Let's
34:45
dismantle the nationwide
34:47
infrastructure that abables the
34:50
US and Israeli military alliance and
34:52
capitalism and all of that to
34:54
continue. So it's no longer a
34:56
debate. We just make you
34:58
follow our orders. As somebody
35:00
who researches, as a researcher on terror, how likely is
35:02
it that we're going to
35:10
see a
35:13
massive terror strike, even if
35:15
it's not something like 9-11,
35:18
but it's several groups all
35:20
around the country doing something
35:22
around the same time to just freely
35:25
throw us off? The
35:29
impression I get is that they may not take
35:31
the exceptional risk of trying to coordinate it down
35:34
to the very second or the very same hour,
35:36
but they say generally, okay, now it's go
35:38
time. In fact, that's what they're saying in the communications.
35:41
I'm saying, I'm going to say it's go time. That
35:43
some are saying, yeah, maybe we should wait while we
35:45
do the college campuses first. It's in that kind of
35:47
stage of discussion, but they're
35:49
all envisioning a large number
35:51
of small attacks over a short period
35:54
of time. And they see that as
35:56
the most likely way forward as opposed
35:58
to this resource intensive. of operation
36:01
like a 9-11 has a higher chance
36:04
of failure. Right, right. Who
36:06
is actually funding this? Who are the big
36:08
people that are funding? Well,
36:11
some of the names that you mentioned certainly
36:13
are involved, but I've got to say, based on
36:16
what little data is available, and people will be
36:18
shocked how little data is available and what you
36:20
can get away with as a nonprofit
36:22
and these different schemes that they have
36:24
in order to hide any type of
36:26
transparency, but of what little data we
36:28
have, the names that
36:31
you mentioned, the Soros's, the Tide Foundation,
36:33
all of those are donating to these types
36:36
of groups that are putting this together, but
36:38
that appears to be a tiny
36:41
percentage of the overall spending and
36:43
revenue that they have. The
36:46
rest seems to be coming through means
36:48
unknown, maybe private donors or businesses, there's
36:50
these various schemes that they have, and
36:54
that makes it much more frightening, because
36:56
we don't have a clue in general.
36:59
How much money do you think we're talking about? Well,
37:03
with all these groups, I mean, if
37:05
we've identified 120 terror-tied groups just
37:09
on our own, their operating budgets
37:11
and everything else, I mean, you've got to be
37:13
talking about altogether, I mean,
37:15
definitely millions, probably tens of billions. Jeez.
37:21
So is there any lead or is this just a
37:23
collection of people that
37:29
are kind of thinking alike, or
37:32
are they highly coordinated? They're
37:36
highly coordinated when it comes down to the
37:38
cell level, and as they're trying to assemble
37:40
these types of insurgent and guerrilla networks on
37:43
the local level, that's much
37:45
more organized, and then in the broader scheme
37:47
of things, doing these
37:49
types of protests, there's less coordination because there just
37:51
doesn't need to be. Everyone's focused on the same
37:53
thing, everyone kind of has the same objective, so
37:56
you don't need as much command and control, but
37:58
there's certainly organizations that are more- powerful than
38:00
others, all sorts of coalitions
38:03
with sub-coalitions. And
38:05
so you have groups like the US Campaign for
38:07
Palestinian Rights that alone has about 300
38:10
groups in their network and they
38:12
present themselves as very moderate.
38:14
But then in the activist guide, the
38:16
toolkit that they send around, they'll have
38:18
links to websites that talk about how
38:21
to do illegal direct actions as part
38:23
of the protest. And of course they
38:25
have links to Hamas overseas, they send
38:27
money to the Palestinian territories for the
38:29
BDS campaign and like a
38:31
specific structure that actually has Hamas in it. So
38:33
it's not even an indirect thing. But
38:36
of course they get mainstream credibility and then they
38:39
look just fine according to the people that
38:41
talk about these issues. So you know I'm
38:43
looking at some of the things that you
38:45
have dug up. Now
38:47
it looks like UCLA, Columbia,
38:49
USC and other college campus
38:51
encampments were planned pretty
38:54
much right after October 7th, beginning
38:57
in November 2023. Yeah
39:00
that's definitely true. As soon as one
39:02
group starts doing it
39:04
and starts getting chatty about it,
39:06
then other groups are going to start talking to
39:08
them about it. So that's a very easy thing
39:10
to happen. It started becoming a trend as soon
39:12
as the effort began.
39:14
And honestly I think Hamas and
39:17
their affiliates would have been
39:19
crazy not to at least have some discussion right
39:21
before they did the October 7th attacks about, alright
39:23
well how are we going to operate
39:26
politically in the United States and elsewhere in dealing
39:29
with the Israeli response? Like that conversation had to
39:32
take place and you might have
39:34
seen the fruits of it when immediately after
39:36
the attack, you had the students for justice
39:38
in Palestine saying not just they support the
39:40
attacks, which is how most of the media
39:42
report in it, oh they support the attacks,
39:44
how outrageous. So what they actually said was,
39:46
and this is an almost direct quote, is
39:49
we're not just saying we're
39:51
in solidarity with the resistance
39:54
movement that carried out the attack. Obviously referring to
39:56
Hamas but they want to say Hamas. We're
39:59
part of it. they absorbed
40:01
themselves into it and
40:03
so that they were acting in allegiance
40:05
to them under their direction. That
40:08
crosses the line into material support
40:10
for terrorism. That's the provision of
40:13
personnel and resources. So
40:15
that's a very different thing than how the media
40:18
characterized and that's why Ron DeSantis was much more
40:20
justified than how it was characterized when he shut
40:22
down two of the
40:24
Students for Justice and Palestine chapters on
40:26
college campuses in Florida. Amazing. Amazing
40:28
that our government is really doing nothing on
40:31
this. What is the percentage
40:33
of those that we see on television
40:35
that are actual believers know what they're
40:37
doing compared to useful idiots? The
40:41
majority are going to be useful idiots I
40:43
think that were enticed by aside
40:45
from being at that age where you're eager to
40:47
try to figure out your role in the world
40:49
and feel like you're doing something positive. I mean
40:51
it's just psychology at that age. The
40:55
overall message of, hey
40:57
do you oppose genocide? Do you
40:59
oppose war? Do you oppose
41:01
the conditions of the Palestinians? And
41:03
well here's our argument for opposing
41:05
Israel because that will result in
41:07
peace, cease fires and improvement and
41:09
liberation for the Palestinians and
41:12
that's a lot of the people is
41:14
now an intellectual detailed argument. And
41:18
I've got to say culturally and
41:20
you know I'm not that old, I'm not that young, I'm
41:22
37 but I've seen a shift over
41:25
the past like 6 or 7 years
41:27
where the unjustified arrogance of
41:29
the youth when it comes to political
41:31
issues is just outrageous.
41:34
It's just a degree of certainty that exists
41:36
and that's really weaponized by these groups. For
41:39
these to be the elite campuses
41:42
it just shows how bad
41:44
our educational system is. These
41:47
people are morons, just morons.
41:51
We're up against summer and graduations are
41:53
happening. What happens in the
41:56
summer? Does this go away and then pick back up
41:58
in the fall? plan
42:00
that if you know?
42:03
I mean the plan is definitely
42:05
to continue as it always is but I think unlike
42:07
the incidents with Black Lives Matter and
42:10
other times in the past, those are
42:12
generated by specific incidents and over
42:14
time the memory of those incidents
42:16
and the emotional backlash you anticipate.
42:19
Whereas this is more of a permanent thing because
42:22
Israel is not going to stop the operations
42:24
and Gaza against Hamas, that situation is not
42:26
going to resolve itself and so it has
42:28
much more longevity so
42:30
it will continue into the summertime. A lot
42:33
of groups have put their credibility on the line
42:35
into saying we're going to act over the summer
42:37
and into the future and even just from a
42:40
more selfish operational standpoint, a lot of
42:42
these nonprofits seem to be raising
42:44
a lot of money and getting a lot
42:46
of members and so regardless of the cause,
42:49
there's a real selfish motivation on each
42:51
one of those parts to keep
42:53
the chaos going. BLM, some people
42:56
got very very rich off of
42:58
that. Right, right exactly.
43:00
Ryan, thank you so much for everything
43:02
that you do. When you have more
43:04
information please reach out because I'd love
43:06
to have you on again. It's really
43:08
important work that
43:10
could be heard by everybody. Thank you so much.
43:13
Alright, thank you Glenn. You bet.
