Why NOT destroying China’s spy balloon may be a BIG MISTAKE

A Chinese balloon was spotted over the northern United States earlier this week, with sightings most recently in Billings, Montana. China has since confirmed the suspected spy balloon is their’s, though stopped short of admitting it’s being used for surveillance (like many in the U.S. suspect). According to CNN, military officials advised President Joe Biden NOT to destroy the balloon, ‘due to fear the debris could pose a safety threat to people on the ground.’ But in this clip, Glenn explains why NOT destroying this 'spy balloon' could be a very BIG mistake…

GLENN: Let me talk to you about the spy balloon. Stu, what do you know about the spy balloon?

STU: Well, apparently, the spy balloon, flying from a product of China. Flying from our western United States.

GLENN: Yeah. It's over Wyoming.

STU: Alaska. Wyoming now.

GLENN: Yeah. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

STU: I did have a question of, when we have satellites and TikTok, why would we need a balloon? I don't know.

GLENN: It does seem to be a little old-timey, you know.

And at first when I heard that, I thought, they're down to hot air balloons. That's good. You know, that's good. But it's not good.

And here's why: And I'm not hearing anybody talk about this. First of all, the -- the balloon's current path, it carries -- it carries this balloon over a number of sensitive military sites. And they also say -- the United States says, they don't want to shoot it out of the sky because of falling debris. Really?

We don't have anything that would just obliterate that thing in the sky. Really? So, anyway, it was over Canada. And then it flies into the United States. And it's flying over sensitive military nuclear sites.

And the Chinese foreign ministry said, you know, relax, America.

Now, I don't know about you, but I'm -- China should be happy that we don't have a female for president. Because females don't really like it when males say, okay. Sweetheart, relax.

And I think that's kind of what China just said to us, in a very condescending tone. Oh, please, relax. It's just a spy balloon. What are we going to get?

Well, here's the one thing that -- one thing that I -- that I wanted to check, when I saw this.

The -- the balloon, they think, is in an altitude between 80, and 120,000 feet. Now, I'm not saying, that this is what it is.

But I am saying, if we don't shoot it down, and make sure that our own airspace remains sacred, we're out of our minds. Can you imagine Russia. If we had a spy balloon, ask we told Russia or China, ah, relax.

The balloon is at an altitude, they believe between 80 and 120,000 feet. The minimum altitude for an airborne EMP is 94 or 95,000 feet. So that's right in that range. I just want to throw that out there.

I don't think it's an EMP. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's not an EMP. However, if they can fly things over our country. And we do nothing about it.

And they're flying them over our nuclear sites. I think that's a problem.

I don't know about anybody else.

But I'm not really relaxed about it. How about you? Hmm?

STU: Sounds like a big problem. And, you know, certainly, I think, they will learn, that they can do this, if they want to do it. Right?

GLENN: Yeah. Absolutely.

STU: Take a lesson from this.

GLENN: That's the intelligence that they're gathering.

I really believe, they are gathering the intelligence of, will America even respond?

I don't think they will. No. Of course, they will. No. I don't think they will.

Let's fly it over. Fly it into US airspace. And fly it spew their really sensitive military sites. And see if they say a word. No!

That's the intelligence they're gathering.

STU: That's all we do, though. Is we say the word. They're talking about how they're going to make a very uncomfortable meeting, I guess when I guess Blinken meets with them.

GLENN: Oh, very uncomfortable.

We might send them a sternly worded letter. Why not blow it out of the sky? Sincerely. Why not blow it out of the sky.

Just saying.

If it's a balloon, I'm not so worried about shrapnel coming down. Are you?

STU: Well, looking it though, the pictures that are seemingly of this balloon. It doesn't look like a balloon. Like you would think of a balloon.

It looks like there's a decent amount of equipment on it. How would you describe this picture? It looks almost like a satellite.

GLENN: Almost like Sputnik.
(laughter)
Yeah. So it looks kind of like a satellite. I wonder what equipment might be on it. And honestly, there is nothing that a balloon can gather, that I'm aware of. And I talked to some expert about this. There's nothing I'm aware of, that they can't gather very satellite. They can watch us via satellite, they have that technology. So why launch a balloon?

The only answer I and others can come up, that I've talked to. Is they're just testing, whether or not they can invade our airspace. And we do anything. Now, why would they want to know that? This is not good. It's not good.

GLENN: Just saying. Leave it at that.

STU: Your summary of it, do we get a headline out of it? Is that a clickbait-y headline that we can get?

GLENN: Yeah. China flying mysterious balloons with equipment on it, over sensitive US air -- US sites. Suboptimal.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Suboptimal. I'm just saying.

STU: Suboptimal.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

STU: Emphasis on the sub.

GLENN: Yeah. Which they can launch a lot of things.

Anyway, there is a new poll out, and it's a record-setting poll. And I think this is exciting. Only about a third. 36 percent of Americans, say they are satisfied now, with a set of policy issues spanning all aspects of government.

Among the lowest rated issues was the state of the economy. Which our president said, is fixed right? I mean, it's booming.

STU: It's strong as hell, Glenn.

GLENN: Strong as hell. No joke, people. I'm not joking. I'm telling you the truth. I'm shooting straight.

It's strong as hell. A quarter of Americans say, yeah. I'm satisfied with it.

It had the largest year over year decline, dropping eight percentage points.

Satisfaction with gun laws, also dropped sharply this year, to a record low of 34 percent.

Now, this one, I would like you to look into, Stu. I would like you to know. Is that like, yeah. Our gun laws aren't strong enough.

You know, we have to be more like California. Which, well, don't think about the stats on that one, too much.

Because we already have the toughest gun laws in California. But that's because of other states, that we're having all these problems.

Uh-huh. So the satisfaction of gun laws dropped sharply to a record low. Policies on abortion. Efforts to control crime.

Quality of public education. And efforts to combat poverty and homelessness, also remain at near all-time low points.

So we're not in a good mood. Now, they say, there are things we can build on.

Sure, there's a rise of polarization. And a decline in national harmony.

You know, we've always had a baseline, where, you know, people were generally content with America.

And now, people are not. I wonder what could have changed that.

So the perception of overall quality of life in the US has dropped to a record low this year.

As did perceptions of wealth inequality. Less than a quarter of adults now say that they are satisfied the way income and wealth is distributed in the US.

Less than a quarter of adults. So does that mean only a quarter of us believe in the free market?

STU: Is it that high?

GLENN: Is it that high?

STU: I mean, think about that, you are constantly beaten over the head, with how much this country sucks. How terrible it's been. How everything it does is wrong. How every police officer is out to kill minorities. I mean, it's on and on and on.

How every rich person is trying to kill poor people for profit. Every company is out to get you.

You think about how that has to wash over a population over multiple decades, and what other ending can you come to?

Only if people are hard-core their principles.

GLENN: Yeah, they know that. They hard-core know that. And just when you think that things are horrible, the groundhog dies, on Groundhog Day.

It's suboptimal. I'm going to leave it at that.

6 things Trump WILL FIX in a second presidential term

If Donald Trump is elected to a second term as president, many things will change. Glenn predicts that we will no longer be on a direct path to global war, the bureaucracy will be cleaned up, many illegal immigrants will be deported, the nonstop lies will end, migrant crime will go down, and the government will stop persecuting pro-life protesters. Even Californians are starting to wake up to the reality of leftist policies. But has America really had enough?

GLENN: I think Trump is doing an amazing job. He's giving us the campaign I hoped he was going to give us. But I really didn't think he would. You know, everybody bought into, including me, that he was going to be, you know. I lost the election. They're after me.

And kind of a -- you know, a grudge tour. Because I think I would have been tempted to do that. But he hasn't. He has been fun, funny. Relatable.

He's -- he's not doing any grudge stuff.

In fact, this week, he said, and I disagree with this. But he said, I even consider pardoning Hunter Biden.

You know, I hope not.

But, I mean, he's not holding grudges. He's just doing the work for the American people.

And I think that's because he's been out on the road, every day, for what? A year and a half?

He said, last night. Remember, he will become a dictator. He will never leave office.

He said, last night, this is kind of sad. We're six days away from the election.

And I won't be doing this stuff anymore.

I won't be traveling around. This has really been fun, to do this. Since 2016.

And last six days of doing it. So he's not going to be doing rallies anymore. I guess that's just because he -- he becomes a dictator, and a Nazi. And then he doesn't do rallies anymore. Because Hitler never did rallies.

Anyway, some of the things that this election is about, that it's really, really important. Because this will decide which way we turn.

For instance, war.

One vote, I truly believe is a vote for global war.

And not that Kamala wants it. Although, I actually think the people around her, do.

If you listen to her acceptance speech, it was like neocon central. I mean, I've never heard anything like it, from a Democrat. They were saying, we've got to go get them!

Scary. Really scary.

If you choose Kamala, I think not only do some of the people around her, want war. The machine wants war.

But also, she's so incompetent, that all of our enemies are going to come out of the woodwork.

Donald Trump, if he's elected on the other hand, I mean, he said, just yesterday, he is telling Benjamin Netanyahu, this war, you've got to be finished before I get into office because it's got to be finished.

We're done. We're done. He also said that with the Ukrainian conflict, that that will be done, as well. I believe both of those. And we have two people, on record. We have Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, who said they were going to end all the wars. He increased the wars.

He killed more people. Donald Trump, first president in probably my lifetime, that didn't start any new wars.

In fact, was ending them.

And that's just coming from strength. Now there's a story in the New York Times today, the U.S. Army prepares for war with China!

New vehicles. Face paint. And a 1200-foot fall. From the New York Times. A big and cumbersome army is trying to transform itself to deploy quickly to Asia, if needed.

Early one morning this month, 864 Army paratroopers bundled into a C-17 transport plane, and from a base in Alaska.

And took off for the great power war, exercise between three volcanic mountains on Hawaii's Big Island.

Only 492 made it. Some of the C-17s had trouble with their doors, while others were forced to land early.

A few of the parachutes, who did make it, or parachutist that did make it landed with sprained ankles or suffered head trauma.

And one 19-year-old private began to fall quickly when his chute didn't open. Good heavens!

So we're preparing for war, and we're telling everybody, how incompetent we are!

We're becoming the former Soviet Union.

That will end! Under Donald Trump.

Let's see. There's another story today. House COVID panel, refers Andrew Cuomo for potential prosecution.

Why? Stu, I know you -- hey. I know you love Andrew Cuomo, huh?

STU: I do. Oh, yes.

GLENN: What did he do that was so wrong?

STU: How many people do you have to kill, to be classified as wrong? What's the number on that?

I know Jeffrey Dahmer got a special. Maybe it has to be more than him.

The Menendez brothers seem to be under that line. Whatever the line is, he's above it, though.

The fact that when you take COVID positive patients. And shove them into nursing homes with the most vulnerable people.

You should be prosecuted for all sorts of things.

GLENN: Yeah. And what they're talking about here is not just, you know, killing people.

Cuomo was accused of engaging in conscious, calculated effort to avoid accountability for his handling of nursing homes. Where thousands of people died of COVID.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: So they will go after him, for really, basically, the cover-up.

So that ends.

By the way, colleges, must pay up for COVID-19 vaccine mandate injuries.

That's from the G.O.P.

That's going to end!

This whole -- this whole mandate crap?

It's over if Donald Trump comes in. In fact, I think Fauci and the entire CDC and the FDA, all of this stuff. Donald Trump said last night. That's what he's giving to -- to RFK.

To clean house!

Go in, and clean this up.

That is a huge, massive, massive change.

By the way, something else that will change. Probably the immigration status of a lot of people.

Those who came here illegally, are going to be removed, under Donald Trump can.

Now, so you know, the left pretends this is impossible.

The guy who exported more illegals, than any other president in history, was Bill Clinton! He -- he removed 11 million illegals from our country. And I didn't even know that fact. Did you? I had no idea!

So it has been done in the past. And it can be done again.

And, by the way, that was, you know, 25 years ago, with a smaller population, than we have now.

And nobody really noticed it.

So what's the problem this time?

Also, do you remember the German family. Their immigrants, they came here.

In exile.

Because Germany was banning homeschooling.

And they were going to take their children away. Because they were teaching them about God, and everything else.

And so they came here.

For exile. And Barack Obama wanted to kick them out.

Joe Biden has wanted to kick them out. And they live year to year. And they are doing really, really well.

Everybody in their community, they love these guys.

I think that will change. Their status, Joe Biden just gave them another year to stay here, before he kicks them out.

I think possibly, Donald Trump will give them the freedom to stay here, and maybe citizenship, if they want it.

I think they do, quite badly. The other thing that will end, the non-stop lies. Do you remember the gunman that shot the Jewish man, walking to a synagogue.

He was in Chicago's West Rogers Park neighborhood. He shot a guy walking in to the synagogue. The police arrest him. After there's a shoot-out. Okay?

With him.

The police say, well, we're not sure what the motive was.

Okay. It was a Jewish guy going into the synagogue, and his name is Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi.

Okay. I'm pretty sure -- I've got a guess on what the motive might be. A shooting of somebody going into the synagogue.

Might. Might. Could be wrong.

But, of course, police don't know at this point. So they won't say anything.

Even though, witnesses have said, he screamed, Allahu Akbar! We don't know what that means. He just was like looking at the trees going, God is great! That could be it. Oh, and also, another quick little fact, that has just come out.

He's an illegal alien. He came across our border illegally. So yet another shooting, that didn't need to happen, and won't, under Donald Trump.

There is a huge sea tile change in this country, that is happening. People have had enough. Even people in California, according to new statewide polling, Californians are posed to pass billions in new spending, and approve new spending powers, while also cracking down on crime!

This is a part that you need to hear. Statewide Public Policy Institute of California poll, found 73 percent of voters support Proposition 36. Which -- now, this is crazy. I want you to know.

This would allow for felony charges, for serial thieves and major drug crimes. Now, this is the opposite of what passed in 2014.

Proposition 47, that turned the drug crimes and the theft crimes into misdemeanors.

And it would also create a treatment mandated felony, crime class, that would allow individuals to complete mental health or substance abuse treatment, instead of going to prison.

But this proposition 47 was -- was sold to the voters of California. It's going to save us money.

Uh-huh.

It's going to reduce prison populations.

It did that. And we're going to invest the money in social programs, that will reduce future crime.

Yeah. Those things didn't happen. Increased crime?

Trial no-shows. People are just like, I'm not going to show up.

What are they going to do? And people committing the same crime, over and over and over again.

Once they are caught. Californians have had enough of this BS.

What do you think the rest of the country is going to say?

Also, I just want to throw this in. Stop drinking the poison that the rest of the Western world is -- is drinking right now.

Do you remember the guy, who in England, he went in to some dance recital class. And it was a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. He killed three children. Six, seven, and nine years old.

Six other girls and two adults were also injured. This is what caused all of the uprisings. Now, what was the government saying? What were the people saying?

The people were saying that this guy is a -- an immigrant that came in, and is not loyal to the crown. They're not loyal to the ideas of the West.

He's an Islamic terrorist. Well, everyone went crazy. You can't say that!

What are you talking about? He was just a good UK citizen, just gone wrong.

Uh-huh. And remember what they said, about the people.

The people who were marching in the streets, saying, this has got to stop.

They called them extremists, and Nazis, and everything else.

They said for months, that this was not a terrorist institute. Well, now that everybody has forgotten, they have decided to charge him with terror.

Not only was he found in cahoots with al-Qaeda and having al-Qaeda documents in his room, but they also found that he was making ricin for a bigger attack.

Now, this is something, the government knew, had to have known, at the time. But they allowed the press and government officials, to take their own citizens who were -- who were concerned about terrorists being in their neighborhoods.

And being swept off as heroes. They called them garbage.

There is a sea change coming. There is a sea change coming.

So those things are going to stop, immediately, under Donald Trump.

Now, if Harris wins, what gets worse?

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

'Yellowstone' Star’s Fight to Make America ‘Cowboy’ Again | The Glenn Beck Podcast | Ep 234

Do you know why a cowboy takes his hat off before dinner? Forrie J. Smith from "Yellowstone" says it’s all part of the “cowboy culture.” In this episode of "The Glenn Beck Podcast," Forrie recounts his career — from cowboy to stuntman to beloved actor — and that one time he had to track down “illegals” wreaking havoc on his ranch at the U.S.-Mexico border. He and Glenn discuss the decline in American beef, how social media has created political silos, and the transgender agenda being pushed on America’s youth in public schools. “When you start messing with my children ... with my animals, you crossed a line,” Forrie says, which is why he isn’t afraid to ask the questions that make most actors' knees buckle. Will the 2024 election be secure? What will be done with all the fentanyl flowing across our open border? Forrie isn’t worried about what the rich and powerful think. As he says, they’ll come looking for him when disaster strikes because he can “survive with a knife.” With all his success, he’s most proud that everywhere he’s lived he’s been called a “good neighbor,” even by that one neighbor with “different politics,” who wants to relocate the rattlesnakes in the front yard when Forrie would rather just shoot them.

What everyone's MISSING about the New York Times/Media Matters THREAT against YouTube

The New York Times recently released something that Glenn describes as "nothing other than a threat to Google and YouTube to silence anyone who is disagreeing." The piece, titled "Election Falsehoods Take Off on YouTube as It Looks the Other Way", was based on research done by the leftist "watchdog" Media Matters, which Glenn has exposed over and over again as a propaganda arm of the uber-Left used to destroy conservative voices. Glenn reviews the article, which insists that YouTube must crack down on election "misinformation" about the 2020 election and prepare to do the same for the 2024 election. But there's one part of this story that Glenn says everyone is missing: The Times had to make a correction at the end of the article that turns this whole story into "nothing" ...

GLENN: Okay. So while they are doing this with Liz Cheney, you have the New York Times. Election falsehoods, take off on YouTube. As it looks the other way.

Now, this story, we've known has been coming now for about a week. And they finally published it today.

This is nothing other than a threat to Google and YouTube, to silence anyone who is disagreeing.

And I will give you -- I will give you the -- the one thing that everybody has missed on this. At the end of this story. Okay. So the YouTube -- this story from the New York Times is this: In June 2023, YouTube decided to stop fighting the most persistent strain of election misinformation in the United States, the falsehood that President Biden stole the 2020 election from Donald J. Trump. Now, I ask you first, if you just want to be a fair arbiter. Are they stopping all of the videos of Hillary Clinton saying in 2016, that he's an illegitimate president? That he knew he was an illegitimate president, that Russia had aided him in winning it?

Are they limiting those? Or demonetizing any of those videos?

The answer is no. It's just the 2020.

Within months, the largest video platform, became a home for election conspiracy theories.

Half-truths, and lies.

They in turn, became the source of revenue for YouTube. Which announced growing quarterly ad sales on Tuesday.

Now, what is that?

Why is that there?

Because that is the New York Times, through Media Matters, telling YouTube, we could boycott you, and your advertisers. We'll cause hell to rain down on you.

That's a threat, believe it or not, to Google. While Media Matters.

Based this entire story on Media Matters. You know who Media Matters is. Media Matters was started, with Hillary Clinton and George Soros.

It is nothing, but a -- a tool, used by the uber left, to destroy anyone who can make any kind of impact with conservative arguments.

That's all it is.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: While Media Matters is a progressive organization, that regularly criticizes conservatives, reporters and academics, frequently cite it as a source of YouTube misinformation, because it devotes significant resources to tracking the vast platform. They're not tracking the vast platform. They're tracking conservatives. Okay?

STU: No. They're coming up -- they start and reverse-engineer.

GLENN: Yes!

STU: Who do we want to destroy?

Find a way to destroy them. That's what they do.

GLENN: Right! And this is well-documented.

And at first, I really thought. When I was at CNN. And Media Matters was just starting. I really thought, okay. They don't know.

The media doesn't know. They get used to. In the old days, they get faxes. Now they get emails.

All of the reporters. All the networks. Even Fox.

They get something from Media Matters, every day. Says, these are the targets.

This is what's going on.

And they run with them. Now, back in 2004, maybe, you could understand that. Because they were new.

Now, everyone knows what they are. And here's the New York Times.

Kowtowing.

30 conservative channels are on YouTube, posted 286 videos, containing election misinformation.

Which racked up more than 47 million views.

YouTube generated revenue for more than a third of those videos, by placing ads before and during them.

Researchers found. Researchers, meaning Media Matters.

Some commentators also made money from those videos, and other monetized features available to members of the YouTube Member Partner Program.

Commentators included former elected officials such as Rudolph W. Giuliani.

Journalists like Tucker Carlson, who said the last presidential election was stolen. And popular pundits like Ben Shapiro, who said Democrats rigged the voting rules in 2020.

Now --

STU: I've heard him talk about that before. Ben Shapiro. In particular.

GLENN: Who you know he quoted?

This is an actual quote. Okay? The New York Times.

He was quoting the New York Times. That led him to that conclusion. The way they had -- you know, Marc Elias. And everybody, all the engineering because of COVID. And all of the lawsuits and getting things changed.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: That's what he was talking about.

STU: Right. He's not one that believes in Sidney Powell conspiracy theories. He's been very clear. That the technical rule changes, before the election, may very well have been the determining factor.

GLENN: Right. And he said, they rigged it. They legally rigged it.

They went in, and they did everything. And the Republicans were just asleep at the switch.

But he doesn't think that it was stolen. Now, that's very, very clear.

But notice the New York Times doesn't make that clear.

GLENN: Hmm. Shocking.

GLENN: Then he goes on, YouTube, which is owned by Google, has prided itself on connecting viewers with authoritative information about elections. But in this presidential context, it has acted as a megaphone for conspiracy theories.

A research director, at Media Matters, who led the analysis, said, YouTube is allowing these right-wing accounts and channels to undermine the 2024 results.

YouTube spokesperson said that the company reviewed eight videos, identified by the Times. And the ability to openly debate political ideas, even those that are controversial, is -- is appear important value. Especially in the midst of election season.

Most of the 30 channels are ineligible for advertising.

So they've already cut the money off.

Okay? You watch any of my videos. I don't make a dime on YouTube.

Don't make a dime on YouTube. Nothing. They have so suppressed our numbers. We haven't grown in I don't even know, five years. It's not even possible.

We're growing everywhere, by leaps and bounds. I am -- I am more -- the footprint, let's say it this way. That sounds very egotistical.

The footprint of this program is bigger than it ever has been. Okay?

We're growing in every metric, except for social media. Now, how does that happen?

How does that happen?

Most of the 30 channels are ineligible for advertising. Some had previously violated the company's content policies.

The spokesperson added this report, demonstrates our consistent approach to enforcing our policies.

But in June 2023, the platform reversed course, saying, creators were allowed to dispute the outcome of any past presidential race, as YouTube tried to offer a home for open discussion and debate during the ongoing election season.

Now, does that sound bad?

Does that sound bad? We can debate anything, in this nation. Anything.

And anyone who is trying to silence that debate. I don't even want to -- to silence Holocaust deniers.

Let them hang themselves with their own words. Okay?

You should be able to debate anything. It's the United States of America. So YouTube says, we're just trying to be a home for discussion, and debate!

Okay. YouTube declined to comment on how it would reimpose a ban on misinformation.

About the outcome of the race.

YouTube removed only three of the videos that Media Matters found and placed information labels on them.

To link to factual information, on 20 of them. Though most of the election labels were later removed.

Some of the commentators seized on the news of the events.

Mr. Trump's conviction on May 30th. On 34 felony counts. Cash Patel. Who served in the Trump administration.

Posted. On an independent television network. That the justice system was rigged against the former president, to interfere with the election.

Can you imagine this not being said by the Democrats, if the roles were reversed?

Of course. Of course they would say that.

The entire media would be saying that. That these are all rigged juries. They place them in Washington DC. Or New York.

You can't get a fair trial.

Blah, blah, blah. The New York Times goes on to say, well, no. That's true.

Mike Davis, a former Senate aid, who runs a judiciary advocacy group called the Article 3 project, claimed that Mr. Biden, his allies, and his aides, were behind Mr. Trump's convictions.

Mr. Davis said, Biden is behind the unprecedented indictments of Trump.

He responded to questions from the New York Times, with an attack on the Times reporting, on a post in X.

There is also a swell of misinformation. From 30 other YouTube creators in July, when republicans in the House passed the Save Act, which would require voters to provide proof of citizenship.

The bill did not become law. But it prompted inaccurate claims on YouTube.

That the undocumented immigrants voted en masse in 2020, and would do the same this fall.

In a Fox news appearance, Senator Ted Cruz, Republicans from Texas, said Democrats wanted more than 11 million undocumented immigrants to vote.

Democrat -- Democrat Party has decided that the voter fraud is good for them.

Okay. None of this is shocking at all.

What's shocking is the correction, at the end of the New York Times story.

They added this: A YouTube spokesperson said that the company reviewed eight videos identified by the Times. Ready?

Which was pointed out to the Times by Media Matters. Then the Times took those, and gave them to YouTube. And said, these are the ones we're talking about.

And those videos, according to YouTube, did not violate its community guide lines.

So this whole story is nothing!

Is nothing!

STU: Shocker.

GLENN: They came up with 30. They said, here are the eight worst, send these to the Times. The Times then took Media Matters at its word. Went to YouTube, with all these accusations and threats.

And YouTube watched them and said, well, they don't violate any of our guidelines. So what do we do?

STU: Hilarious.

GLENN: This is craziness.

STU: The failure. Imagine failing this often.

What kind of organization would ton exist with this level of failure.

GLENN: It's pathetic.

It's really embarrassing. It's really embarrassing.

It's not really failure. Even if your story is having an impact and you're embarrassing yourself, if you're getting hundreds of thousands of dollars coming into your bank account, I guess.

GLENN: I guess, if that's how you want to live your life. It just leads to misery.

Why You Must Prepare for the Left’s CHAOS If Trump Wins | Ep 390

We are less than a week from the 2024 election. In 2020 at this time, Glenn was busy warning about some of the dirty tricks the Left was “war gaming.” It involved everything from mass protests and street demonstrations to secession. Serious Democrats in positions of power and influence were strategizing behind the scenes. And in 2024, they’re doubling down. Glenn warns that we need to start preparing for what happens if Donald Trump wins on November 5 or if the race is close. Marc Elias, the Democrats’ main lawfare operative, has already declared that this election year is “the most litigious in American history.” Kamala Harris has bragged that they have “teams of lawyers” at the ready. Democratic congressmen have hinted they might not certify the election if Trump wins. And the media is declaring that Trump might try to steal the election. Asra Nomani, a former Wall Street Journal reporter and “Woke Army” author, has been tracking the foot soldiers’ plans for the election and the weeks after. She says Trump MUST win by a landslide or the fight “will go from the courts to the streets.” She uncovered an orchestrated effort by progressive institutions and organizations that are getting support from “like-minded ideologues in China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea.” Their end goal? CHAOS. Glenn asks a final, chilling question: Are the Left’s election war games connected to a recent revision in DoD Directive 5240.01 that addresses the use of "lethal" military force against Americans? Whatever may happen, Glenn is sure of one thing: Americans MUST VOTE as soon as possible. We cannot stay silent.
