Hey, Biden: STOP sharing your ‘feelings’ with the WORLD!

It's been gaffe after gaffe after gaffe for President Biden, especially since suggesting over the weekend that a regime change in Russia was needed. Earlier this week Biden tried to walk back his statements about Putin and even told reporters he was just sharing his 'personal feelings.' But Glenn and Stu explain why that should be FAR from any American president's strategy when communicating with the WHOLE WORLD: 'He doesn't understand the difference between his inside voice and his outside voice...but your inside voice is REALLY important if you're president.'

GLENN: Huh. That is -- that is incredible. Did you see the president's press conference yesterday? Oh. It was -- hmm. Here he is. Talking about, what a. Complex situation Russia is. Cut one, please.

BIDEN: What was the second part?

VOICE: Do you hate the diplomacy of this moment?

BIDEN: No. I don't think it does. The fact is, we're in a situation, where it complicates the situation in the moment. Is the exploratory efforts of Putin, to continue an engaging carnage. The kind of behavior that makes the whole world say, my God, what is this man doing? That's what complicates things.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: What?

BIDEN: But I don't think it complicates it at all.

GLENN: Wait.

STU: It complicates it.

BIDEN: Doesn't really complicate it at all. Yeah, his actions don't complicate it at all. At all.

STU: No.

BIDEN: People is not saying that. Here he is, cut three.

VOICE: Are you worried that other leaders in the world are going to start to doubt that America is back, if some of these big things that you say on the world stage, keep getting walked back?

BIDEN: What's getting walked back?

VOICE: It sounded like you told U.S. troops, they were going to Ukraine. It sounded shrike you said, it was possible the U.S. would use a chemical weapon. And it sounded like, you were calling for a regime change in Russia. And we know --

BIDEN: None of the three occurred.

GLENN: So they all occurred?

VOICE: You were going to see when you were there. You were not in charge --

BIDEN: I was referring with being with and talking with the Ukrainian troops in Poland.

VOICE: And when you said a chemical weapon use in Russia would trigger a response in kind.

BIDEN: It will trigger a significant response.

VOICE: What does that mean?

BIDEN: I'm not going to tell you. Why would I tell you?

You have to be silly.

VOICE: The world wants to know.

BIDEN: The world wants to know a lot of things, I'm not telling them what the response would be, then Russia knows what the response would be.

STU: You did tell them what the response would be. You said "in kind." It's not just a -- a collection of words. They mean things. That's what words do!

GLENN: "In kind."

No. Words are violent.

STU: And I want to know where in Poland are we seeing women and children standing up to tanks? Where is that happening in Poland?

GLENN: No. He said -- He was referring to -- here, please play cut two, please.

BIDEN: I was talking to the troops. We were talking about helping train the troops, that are the Ukrainian troops, that are in Poland.

GLENN: Okay. Got you. Stop. Stop.

He was training the Ukrainian troops.

STU: Was he talking --

GLENN: That were in Poland. Which is not something anyone knew, until this press conference.

STU: Another massive gaffe.

GLENN: Well, they're walking it back. They're walking it back.

STU: They're not walking it back. They walk it back --

GLENN: They're not?

STU: He says something. The media spends multiple days, going through a cycle, with the press office where they tell the media, hey, we got to walk this back. Here's what we needed to come out. They dutifully go along with it. And then they ask the president about it. He says, I'm not walking anything back. Whenever this stuff happened with Trump, they complained about it constantly, said it was the most unprofessional thing you could possibly imagine, and it happens every day with Biden, and no one cares.

GLENN: And it's kind of big things. Here he is, cut four.

VOICE: Do you believe what you said, that Putin can't remain in power? Or do you now regret saying that, because your government has been trying to walk that back, because your words complicate matters?

BIDEN: Well, you asked three different questions. I'll answer them all.

Number one, I'm not walking anything back. The fact of the matter is, I was expressing the more outrage I felt toward the way Putin is --

STU: That's not how the presidency works.

BIDEN: Just -- just brutality, happening in Ukraine. I just comfort being with those families. And -- and so -- but I want to make it clear, I wasn't then, nor am I now articulating a policy change. I was expressing more outrage that I feel, and I make --

STU: That's not okay as president of the United States.

VOICE: Personal feelings?

BIDEN: Oh, okay. His personal feelings.

STU: When has that become an okay thing to do? You're president of the United States, you don't just blurt out your personal feelings? Almost all of your job is to not say your personal feelings and instead articulate policy change?

GLENN: Well, what do you mean almost all your job?

STU: That's your responsibility. When you're making a speech on foreign soil, about a foreign conflict that you keep saying that you are more involved in, than your official policy. Then you make statements about what could be -- I mean, certainly everyone in the world remembers, previous wars, where we've had regime change as our goal.

GLENN: Libya.

STU: They cannot stay in power. Iraq. There's a lot of examples.

GLENN: Afghanistan. Other than that. Other than that. We have to go way back.

STU: Like, the job of the president would be a lot easier, if you could just blurt out whatever you wanted, whenever you wanted with no consequences. You know who does here you, when you say things like that? The guy that has 6,000 nuclear weapons hears you.

GLENN: No. No, no, no, no.

STU: No?

GLENN: Listen. Let's get some perspective from -- from Don Lemon, who strangely is still on the air. Listen to this.

VOICE: The president is saying exactly what most of the world feels about Vladimir Putin.

STU: So what?

VOICE: Now, he did not in that speech, say that Vladimir Putin should be removed, and we need to take him out of power. He said, this man should not remain in power. What person in their right mind, thinks that someone who bombs innocent people, children, a country that is in an unprovoked war, should remain in power.

GLENN: Right. Right.

STU: This is not --

VOICE: So I think we should do something to take him out of office, that would be a different thing. The general said the same thing.

GLENN: Yeah.

VOICE: Quite honestly, I think this is a media-manufactured story.

GLENN: Okay. Stop. This is the media just saying this is a big deal. That Russia isn't taking that in this way. They're just expressing their feelings. Let me give you this, from the Kremlin. Retaliatory Visa measures are being developed from Russia, for citizens from unfriendly nations, according to Sergei Lavrov, who said on March 28th, as another top Kremlin official said U.S. President Joe Biden's recent comments are cause for concern. During his public comments, Lavrov did not provide details about the countries that would be targeted, although he did single out the United States and its allies. Additionally, a draft -- a draft presidential decree is currently being developed on retaliatory Visa measures in connection with the unfriendly actions of a number of foreign states. This act will introduce a number of restrictions on entry to the territory of Russia. Some measures are being developed to respond to the unfriendly actions by the United States and its satellites. It comes as the Kremlin issued more statements, following Biden's speech last week in Poland, where he said this man cannot stay in power. These statements are certainly causing us grave concern, said the Kremlin spokesperson. We continue to closely monitor the statements of the U.S. president. He carefully note them, and will continue to do so. Now, I'm not sure if anybody at CNN or anyone in the White House know. But when you talk to your intelligence people, they will come in with a briefing. And you're going up against war. Or you're going into a meeting. And you'll have all the experts on let's say, that president. That you don't know for sure, they're experts, because they've listened to every word. They have looked at every action. And they say, this is what he's thinking. This is what he may mean. This is what you have to we're about. This is who the guy is. So when the president of the United States speaks here, there's a group of people, all around the world, that are not on our side. That look and evaluate everything he's saying. So when, you know, Putin goes, so is this, like, old lady actually threatening me?

Mr. President, we don't know for sure. But he was talking about possibly the troops going in to Ukraine? We're not sure what that meant. He's now talking about what could be perceived as regime change. He also admitted that they were training Ukrainian troops. Yeah. I would say that he's on a different wavelength. That's what happens!

STU: Yeah. I mean, think of the things that Vladimir Putin says that we keep quoting. The war will be with ones and zeros. Right? That's not an official statement of policy.

GLENN: No.

STU: But we take it damn seriously. And when he wants to reconstitute the Soviet Union. The fall was the greatest tragedy of history in the past century. We take that seriously and look at that as motivation. They're doing the same thing over there, with every one of these gaffes. This guy is going to gaffe us into World War III. He's literally in the middle of gaffing us into if we go to nuked.

GLENN: I really don't think these are gaffes.

STU: No.

GLENN: No. Listen what he just said. What he just said. No, that was my personal feeling. Okay. Well, personal feelings become policies.

STU: Yeah. When you are the commander-in-chief of the military, yes.

GLENN: Right. So when he says things like -- I mean, it's only reasonable. This may not be what he's doing. But it's only reasonable if you are assessing someone. You look at what they say. Look at what they do. Look at the sanctions, that we've just put on. They're unlike any other sanctions ever. Ever. Then he says, we're in a long war, people should brace for years of war. Okay. What does that mean? Then he says, all of these things out loud. These -- I was just thinking. No, you read it wrong. Well, there's going to be a lot of people that read it wrong. And they might have nuclear weapons.

STU: You now, can we imagine if we had -- look at this, Vladimir Putin comes out and says, hey, you know what, this Joe Biden guy cannot stay in power.

Can you imagine what a serious moment that would be? We found like four Facebook ads, that said, they wanted to screw with our elections. And it was an international incident, that lasted multiple years in an impeachment.

GLENN: Exactly right. And look what Putin said, in response to this speech. Putin came out yesterday, and started talking about how the United States is trying to erase all history and culture. Russian culture, from the West. Okay? Well, that -- can you imagine, reverse this situation. Imagine if that was happening to us. And our president said, they're trying to erase us, from history. All of our accomplishments. All of our cultural -- you know, we're getting rid of Gershwin. Weaver getting rid of Uncle Tom's cabin. We're getting rid of all of American culture. I don't know. I would think the people would rally around that president who said, we got to fight this. Because they're erasing us. Of course, we would. That's what we just handed him. Oh, and by the way, they're also trying to take me out. There's a coup against me. I'm not worried about that. I'm just staying focused on what we have to do. Because I'm here for the America that has changed the world. You think? You think the people are going to support -- which one? Which one? Tell me. They're going to support the president against the enemy that is saying crap like we're saying. And I'm telling you, the president has feelings. And his feelings, he doesn't understand the difference between his inside voice, and his outside voice. But your inside voice, is really important, if you're president. But if you express that on your outside voice. It's very logical to assume, that your inside voice, is what you're telling others, inside of secret rooms with secret meetings.

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’s SOLUTION to the DOJ’s Epstein Files fallout

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.

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.
