Debunking Hunter Biden's PATHETIC attempt to claim Joe Biden is innocent

In an incredible show of defiance, Hunter Biden ignored a House subpoena and instead held a press conference at the Capitol. Hunter demanded that Congress give him a public hearing and insisted that his father, President Biden, "was not financially involved" in his businesses. And the media ate it up. But Glenn and Stu call him out for his word games. No one is accusing Joe Biden of investing in Hunter's companies, they explain. The House's impeachment inquiry is focusing on BACKROOM deals and shady money laundering trails. Glenn and Stu tear into the media's narrative with the REAL evidence that the House has against Joe Biden and also explain the only thing the President SHOULD have said if he wanted to appear innocent.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Here's cut four. Here's Hunter Biden yesterday.

He said something that the New York Times decided to quote by using a misquote. Listen to this.

VOICE: Let me state as clearly as I can. My father was not financially involved in my business.

GLENN: Stop. Why is that important?

STU: Well, you know, Glenn. You have a song. And then you remix it. And then there's a club mix. And a dance mix. And a disco mix.

And eventually, it's not the same song. And that's where we are in the Hunter Biden saga.

GLENN: You're saying, they're not singing the same song here.

STU: Because it was first, I never spoke to my child Hunter about my business at all.

GLENN: And he would say, I've never spoken to my father. Never spoken to my father.

STU: Yeah. That was the initial --

GLENN: About any of my business.

STU: That moved. All the -- it got to, I never spoke to him about the finances.

I never met with him -- all these things have proven to be true. Now we've gone all the way to, what was the quote again?

GLENN: My father was not financially involved.

STU: Involved in my business.

Now, is that a massive leap.

Because I -- I think -- if -- thinking about what we believe about Joe Biden.

Like, for example, there was a payment that went -- we've talked about it before. And I'm not going to be able to get it exactly right.

GLENN: I can. It's China to the trust.

To, you know, the Shell Corporations.

Actually, through, I don't remember. It was Sri Lanka or some crazy place like that.

China. Sri Lanka. Then to the Shell Corporations. Then to the lawyer.

Then the lawyer to, I think Joe Biden's brother.

STU: Jim. Jim Biden.

GLENN: Jim Biden. Then he wrote a check to all of the other Bidens.

Including one to the other Bidens. Saying, loan repayment. But there's no paperwork. Or any kind of indication, that that money was ever loaned to Jim.

Yeah.

STU: So now you could probably technically look at that arrangement, and say, that's not a financial involvement in the business.

Right? Like he's not investing. That's something that Joe Biden is not investing money into that business.

Has a getting repaid for loans, right?

Even the way it is now.

It's clearly a payment. But it's not on the books as a financial investment in this company.

No one is accusing him of investing in this company.

GLENN: No. Look, here's the thing.

STU: It's absurd!

GLENN: Let's just look at this as a normal human being.

First of all, my kid is doing drugs and hookers. And I know about it.

I don't send him over to Ukraine.

To a job with a guy who literally beheads his enemies.

STU: For any reason.

GLENN: Yeah. I never do that. I never do that.

Okay?

I never put my son, who is addicted to cocaine and everything else, and hookers.

I never put him in a situation, to where it's going to make it worse.

Okay?

I don't send him money to bail him out with his hookers.

None of that. I don't think you do either.

Now, here's something I might do.

If my son was legitimate.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: I'm at the end of my career. I'm 78 years old, and my son is making money.

And as long as I'm not making money, you know, I'll pop in. And just say hi to my son. He's with some clients.

I'm not going to do anything for him. I'm not going to do anything for those clients.

But I pop in, blah, blah, blah.

But I'm not taking any money for it.

STU: Oh, God no.

But you can see yourself -- you know my son.

It's great to meet you. Then those people go back. Tell those little stories. Then, oh, my gosh.

Joe Biden walked in. The vice president walked in.

You can see it as something that you --

GLENN: But that's not the only thing he did.

STU: No.

GLENN: He would take private conferences with them.

STU: Dinners.

GLENN: Dinners with them. He would get their kids into colleges.

STU: He was certainly, at the very least, part of a threat.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: For payment.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: Now, we don't know for sure if --

GLENN: My dad will make you miserable.

STU: Okay. Yeah. Exactly.

We know he at least was using his dad, at least what we know.

And we know they were in the same location at the time of that message.

GLENN: And I think if you or your wife. And your wife and your husband had Hunter Biden as your son. And you really believed the things that you had said.

I wasn't involved in that. I wasn't.

Well, I -- okay. I did meet with some people.

You believed that all the way.

And you believed your son was struggling. But at this point, this is going on.

He's now in contempt of Congress. Okay? At some point, you say, you know, son, you're out of -- Get Out Of Jail Free cards.

I'm sorry. But you've humiliated me and the family. And, quite honestly, yourself and your children. And I don't want your children to believe, that they can get away with the kind of stuff. And maybe it's my fault. Because I raised you like this.

I don't know.

But no more. No more.

I -- and I would come out and say, I'm really embarrassed.

I'm embarrassed by my son.

My son is sick.

I've done everything I can. But I -- I'm sorry. I'm the president of the United States.

Now, I would say that, just as me, just as -- just as a dad.

If -- if he embarrassed our entire family like this over this many years. Nope.

STU: Yeah. You probably have members of your family or at least people that you know.

Their family. Who have, you know, basically excommunicated members. Because of things they have done to damage the family unit.

After a while -- you listen to Dr. Laura for five minutes. Listen to one of those calls. Where people call up. Hey, what should I do? My husband ripped us off, and he hit my daughter. And blah, blah, blah, blah. But I want to stay married.
Get them out of your life.

GLENN: Or get off my phone.

At some point, you have no sympathy. You are a part of it. You are a part of the sickness.

STU: Yeah. So -- and speaking of remixes, you know, because you get down this road. I was actually listening to -- it was ABC News this morning.

And what has been the constant refrain from the media on this entire topic?

GLENN: Nothing.

STU: They have no evidence. Right?

They keep saying this. They have no evidence. They have no evidence.

They were talking about the impeachment inquiry this morning. I'm listening to it. They're saying, they now say -- the remix has started on this.

GLENN: Okay. Hey. Before you get to ABC.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Let me tell you what AOC said yesterday.

Here's AOC on that very point.

VOICE: And not only is the committee not allowing Hunter Biden to testify publicly, but they have not called a single witness, a single first-hand witness to any of their allegations. They haven't allowed anybody to testify publicly. Because they do not have a single witness to any of their alleged allegations.

They don't.

STU: They've done interviews.

They have publicly done interviews about this.

GLENN: What are you talking about?

STU: She's a buffoon. It's pure and simple.

GLENN: I'm telling you.

No. The American people, that still buy into this.

And watch CNN or ABC or any of these networks. That will play that, without saying, that's untrue.

You're a moron.

STU: And that has been their role for a while.

Now, of course this evidence has existed for years. It was out before the 2020 election.

Some of it.

GLENN: I know. I know.

STU: However, it really has. We've learned a lot more over the past year.

ABC said, you know, they still kind of claimed, this is stuff they're going -- they want this impeachment inquiry. They don't have evidence to -- they don't have proof of this.

Evidence has turned to proof.

And I think that's interesting. Look, having proof of interesting-something. You're in court. Arguing with all the evidence you need.

The Republicans explicitly said, the reason they're doing this inquiry. Is to get the --

GLENN: The evidence.

STU: And the witnesses, they're trying to get on record, to be forced to actually come.

Right? The problem is they're just saying no right now.

GLENN: Right.

STU: So they have to make this formal. So that these witnesses to have show up and answer these questions.

And there will be plenty of witnesses.

We've had whistle-blowers. We've had business associates. We have text messages. We have bank records. There's a ton of evidence.

The other thing they said. While they don't have proof of all of this.

What they have shown is a series of statements from Joe Biden, that are misleading or outright --

GLENN: Lies.

STU: They didn't use the word lies. They said something else. It was close to eyes, but it was something else. And I did notice that. Contradictions, is I believe what they said.

Think about this, we bash the Republicans all the time. For good reason. They let us down often. But let me look for just one bit of sunlight here.

The Republicans got elected by three or four seats. Right?

That's it. They don't have a lot of power.

As we said, and I said this to you. You said this, Glenn. Back in 2022.

The main thing they'll be able to accomplish are these investigations.

They won't be able to pass laws.

They won't be able to -- they will be able to block the worst case stuff from the Biden administration. That's number one.

And number two, they'll be able to do investigations.

This is -- Joe Biden said, my son.

This is where it started. We didn't even get the starting point right at the song before the remix.

His first statement was, my son -- my son has done nothing wrong.

Nothing! We couldn't even get him to say, look, he's a disaster. But it's not me.

He didn't even say, well, he's done a lot of mistakes. But it's illegal.

My son has done nothing wrong. When was he saying that? May of this year.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: May of this year, Joe Biden was still saying his son had done nothing wrong.

The Republicans have moved this ball down the field, in impressive fashion over the past six months. And it is something we should notice. Because they have actually done a good job, moving this.

GLENN: Oh, I just the weaponization of government committee. And the Hunter Biden investigation committee. I just both of those have done a remarkable job. Remarkable.

STU: Every once in a while, you have to stop and say, they've done something right too.

GLENN: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

In just -- in just exposing.

And like you said, they can't stop it.

STU: It might not lead to anything. They might still lose elections. They might not get to the end of this. They might blow it in some way. All that is true.

But we do know a lot more now, than even we did a year ago. Even conservative, you know, talk show listeners knew.

We have gone -- they have learned things. They have proved things. And they have even moved the mainstream media to admit to some of this stuff.

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.
