Is there enough evidence to impeach AND REMOVE Joe Biden?

Peter Schweizer, author of ‘Red-Handed,’ is an expert on Biden family corruption. He tells Glenn — if Republicans gain control of Congress later this year — that there IS enough evidence to impeach Joe, thanks to Hunter Biden’s terrifyingly close ties to Chinese intelligence. But removing the president from office may be another story. He explains it all in this clip. Plus, Schweizer gives his thoughts on what the FBI/Donald Trump fiasco is REALLY all about…

GLENN: Oh, man. I am -- I am thrilled to have the one and only Peter Schweizer on with us. Hello, Peter. How are you? PETER: Hey, I'm great, Glenn, good to be with you, as always. Thanks for having me. GLENN: You bet. You're the president -- not that you don't know this. But let me introduce you. The president of the Government Accountability Institute, the author of Red-handed and the co-host of The Drilldown. Peter, I wanted to talk to you about a couple of things. First of all, have you seen anything like what the FBI is currently doing with the national archives to Donald Trump? Anything like it? PETER: No. No. Nothing like it. And it's really, truly bizarre, Glenn. Because if you look at the issue that is at stake, which is the handling of these classified materials. We had a run at this, in 2016, with Hillary Clinton. And, you know, it's worthwhile remembering some of the details. Let's remember, she had this server, that was not authorized, not even known by federal security officials. She was found to be storing dozens of top secret, and other secret materials, on that server. They didn't know about it. When they discovered it, she had her lawyers go through, and delete the emails that she felt should be deleted. The FBI concluded that her server had been penetrated by a foreign intelligence service. And then she destroyed the phone, that she had been given. As Secretary of State. That is all very consistent, in the sense of the issue, of what we're dealing with Donald Trump. Which is the national archive, claiming that of these materials, that's not being handled properly. But instead of handling it the way they did with Hillary Clinton, which is engage with their lawyers. Try to work it out. Of course, they let her get away with a lot of stuff. That's not what they did here. They were engaged with Donald Trump's lawyers. And then they conducted this raid. And it's important to point out, by the way, Glenn. That the Department of Justice and FBI have always had kind of a policy, as it relates to election, not taking sort of deep, provocative actions. You know, 90 days or so before an election. They certainly did it in the case of the raid on Donald Trump, it was very visible. It was very clear-cut. GLENN: What do you think this is about here? What do you think this is really about? PETER: I think it's a combination of things. Number one, there's no question, that there's certain elements of the FBI. Particularly at the Washington headquarters. That are smarter, at how it was revealed, that they sort of jerry-rigged the Russia gate investigation. I mean, remember the Revelations. You talked about them regularly. The misconduct by senior FBI officials. First you have Peter Strzok making all those comments to his lover about Donald Trump. And his despising about Donald Trump and his supporters. Then you have documents that go to the FISA court that have been altered. Then you have clear evidence that -- that's deeply embarrassing to a law enforcement agency like the FBI, that is supposed to be all about process. They have a process to deal with every investigation. They did not follow it. And then they tried to cover it up. That is institutionally embarrassing. Particularly to FBI senior officials, who have been there for 25, 30 years. And were running the show at the time. So I think that is a component of it. I also think more broadly speaking. There's just a little of institutions, in Washington, DC. Apparently including now the national archives. That don't like Donald Trump. And they have a separate set of rules, for him. Than they do for people like Hillary Clinton. And here's the problem, Glenn. You're a student of history. You can probably expound on this, better than I can. If you look at the decline of civilizations, or if you look at the loss of freedom in countries, absolutely elections are important. Even more important, is when the judicial system favors certain petroleum, and is used to go after other people. When you undermine the judicial system in that way, you are in a very, very precarious situation. GLENN: Well, when you -- when you pack a court, that's the end. There's no country that has ever recovered from packing of the court. But we are approaching everything else, in our judicial system. It's becoming just quite amazing. Let me ask you: Fauci just was -- just said, I'm going to leave, you know, before January. I think hoping that, you know, since the Republicans are going to have the call -- you know, have the power to call a committee together, and look into Fauci and others. That he was like, what? I'm on a beach someplace. I don't think that's going to work. I hope it doesn't. I hope they get him. If he was lying, I want to get to the bottom of it. PETER: Absolutely. GLENN: But do you think that we know about Hunter Biden, do you think people like Mitt Romney, and you would get anybody. If you won the Senate, and the House decided to go with impeachment. Just based on the things that we know. Do you think there's more to be found there, and it would be enough to impeach Joe Biden? PETER: Yes, I think it would. And here's the interesting thing, Glenn. GLENN: Wait. Wait. I want to make sure I'm clear on this. Not just impeach, but remove. PETER: That's another question. GLENN: Okay. PETER: I do think the evidence is clearly there. And I think if we have these hearings in the House with Hunter Biden. And it's interesting to note, Glenn, the left overreached, as they often do. Because remember, it was an individual named Steve Bannon, who was just charged with contempt of Congress. So what happens when the House calls Hunter Biden next year? And he refuses to show up? I mean, you've got a problem there, if you are on the political left. But my view is, this has always been not a story about the hookers. About the cocaine. About the drug abuse. And it's not even been a story just about Ukraine and Russia. For me, it's always been about espionage. And about the fact that Chinese intelligence has their clause into this family. And all you have to do is look at very simply, the four businessmen, that Hunter Biden received tens of millions of dollars in China. They're all directly linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence. And that ain't a coincidence. And, by the way, it would be pretty easy for Hunter Biden to discover, who these individuals were. We could have done it on public records. He could have done it on the same thing. The point is, that put it into a different category. The problem you have with elected officials like Mitt Romney. They really do view high elected office, as a club. And I understand, Glenn. You want to have camaraderie, right? You want to try to get along with people. You want to have a sense of common purpose. But you can't gloss over major crimes, and major security threats. GLENN: The club thing is ridiculous. If Rush Limbaugh would have been corrupt and doing all kinds of things, that would hurt our country, every talk radio host in America would have turned on him. Would have turned on him. PETER: And the reason, by the way, by him doing it, it would have been horrible for the club. GLENN: Exactly right. PETER: And that's the way Mitt Romney unfortunately, does not see it. So, yes. I do believe that there's going to be grounds there. I think for Anthony Fauci. The question. And, you know, I talked about this a little bit in the red-handed. Let's just try to get to the bottom of this question, of where this virus that shut down our country, that killed -- where it actually came from. And what we know for a fact, is that Fauci, very early on, immediately jumped in. Not as a scientist. Or as a medical professional. They wouldn't do that. As a bureaucrat. And immediately declared, no, no. This had to be naturally occurring. He immediately killed that. He needs to stand before the American people. And explain why. Because here's a guy who declared himself as science. So you explain to us as why. And we need to get to the origins of this. To this point right now, here today, Glenn, as we're talking. Going back to 2020 when the virus started. There has not been a single congressional hearing in the House of Representatives, on the origins of the covid virus. There hasn't been one in the Senate either. That is shocking to me. Shocking to me. If you view this as a war. Almost a million Americans has died. We had this huge damage to our civil liberties. And to our economy. And nobody in responsibility in Washington, wants to know, how this war started. Or who is responsible. It's ridiculous. So I hope to make that a priority. And Anthony Fauci needs to answer things under oath. Not rushed. Not with a 5-minute rule. But very specific questions he needs to answer about why he tried to cover this up. Because you'll notice, Glenn, the conversation is shifting. A lot of people are coming out of the woodwork now. And saying, there is mounting evidence, that we talked about all along. That this is man made and created in a lab. GLENN: More with Peter Schweizer in a second. If you haven't read Red-handed, you need to. All of the people in Washington, that are just taking money from our enemies. It needs to be stopped. We'll talk to Peter Schweizer, a little bit more. I have two questions on Joe Biden, that I think are disturbing coming up in a second. JEFFY: American Financing. NMLS 182334. Www.NMLSconsumeraccess.org. GLENN: So there's a lot more to a mortgage refinance than just a lower rate. It is an opportunity to access your home's equity. Now, you have probably more equity in it, than you had three years ago. And that equity is going to go down, as your home price falls down. Now, this can be used to fund home improvements. I would really recommend, you pay off any high interest credit cards before the rates rise yet again. And they're going to continue to go up. All of these things are possible when you give American Financing a call. Please call them. It's an American run, American values kind of company. I've been in business with them for probably 15 years. American Financing will do right by you. They don't take kickbacks from the banks. And all the people that are on the team, that are going to answer your phone call. They're not -- they're salaried. Nobody gets bonuses for getting a new person on the line. So call 800-906-2440. They really want to do right by you, and put you in a situation, to where you can weather the coming storms. 800-906-2440. AmericanFinancing.net. Ten-second station ID. (music) So, Peter, I find it amazing that we haven't had time to look into, you know, the -- the laptop of Hunter Biden. FBI just has not had the time to do that. They haven't had the time to finish the Durham report. And yet, boy, they arrested a couple of people, who were accused of stealing Joe Biden's daughters diary. Which they said, wasn't real for a very long time. And I'm all for putting people in jail, who stole something. They shouldn't have stolen them. However, that is disturbing, if you know what is inside of that diary. GLENN: Yeah. And, look, nobody obviously knows exactly if this is her diary. I mean, I haven't done any forensic work on it, maybe other people have. But, again, it goes back to this larger issue, Glenn. Which is, he's president of the United States. His family is engaged in these financial relationships with Chinese officials, who are linked to the CCP. And now there's a document floating around, that may or may not be accurate. That apparently has some very salacious damaging things, to Joe Biden. GLENN: Yeah. PETER: You know, our Florida intelligence agencies are aware of this. Do they have copies of this? Has this been used as leverage against Joe Biden? I mean, these are the kinds of questions that used to be asked during the Cold War. You know, we have an entire counterintelligence apparatus that is supposed to look into this stuff. And explore it. Yet, it's sort of head in the sand, kind of mindset in Washington, DC. It doesn't matter what the vulnerabilities or the possible points of leverage, that form intelligence services on this president. We're just going to pretend they don't exist. And that's the part that is truly shocking to me. And you're quite right. The priorities of the FBI, when it comes to these issues, I know for a fact, because it's been reported back in 2020 that Tony Bobulinski shared his materials with the FBI. There's no evidence, that -- and I have it on pretty good authority, that nothing has been done, with that material. And now you have this FBI official who is reportedly -- the whistle-blowers identified as slow walking or suppressing the investigation of Hunter Biden. The reporting, Glenn, is that he resigned. And he's retiring. And he's getting his pension. I mean, that's -- GLENN: It's sick what's going on. It's really sick what's going on. And can I mention a name that nobody has heard in a while? Durham. Where is the Durham report? PETER: Yeah. The Durham report. And also the Hunter Biden who can't understand jury. And what could be going on. Is, again, they violated it in blazing glory with the Trump raid. But the DOJ has had this policy. That 90 days or so, before an election. You're not going to come out with something -- that may be what's going on with the grand jury. Because I do have some people that are aware of what's going on. And that seems to be, there's been a lot of activity, kind of quieting things down. But, again, what people are looking for, Glenn, is consistency. If you're going to have a 90-day rule, it should apply to a grand jury. It should apply to the Durham investigation. It should also apply to major FBI operations, where they show up with guns, and the media is present, in these dramatic raids. And it's the inconsistency. The facts that the different rules apply to different people, in the same circumstances. Which is what I think has angered people the most. And has made people very distraught about the course that our country has now been on for a while. GLENN: With the amount of money that our government is spending Peter. And I know this is really what you've been. This is what started you, on so many of these journeys was the waste and the corruption of our public funds. I really think, when somebody looks to all the connections, and where our money has gone in Ukraine. My gut tells me, it is a massive scandal waiting to be uncovered. PETER: Yeah. GLENN: But -- but -- with the amount of money, that we're spending, the -- the -- the amount of money that could be funneled into dark kinds of things, is astounding. PETER: It is. It's -- there are numbers with lots of zeros at the end. Lots more zeros than you and I will ever see. Or, you know, a large number of people in Texas together, are ever going to see. Yeah, it's a huge problem. And, look, when it comes to Ukraine, it's really possible to believe two things in my mind, it's really possible to believe two things at the same time. Number one, Vladimir Putin is an aggressor, that has moved into neighboring Ukraine. Has a created this humanitarian crisis, and number two, the Ukrainian government is corrupt. And we are going to pour billions of dollars in there, that will end up in overseas accounts. We know Zelinsky has already done this. This has been done by the International Consortium of Investigation Journalists. They've got access to overseas bank accounts that government officials have had. That have been arranged through shell companies. Zelinsky has some of those. We know that the people who backed Zelinsky coming to power, particularly an oligarch named Kolomoisky is deeply corrupt. And has been implicated in siphoning off billions of dollars of U.S. aid. So what you're saying is already happening, and it's a tragedy. GLENN: Peter Schweizer, thank you so much. We'll talk to you again. Peter Schweizer.com. And grab his book. Red-handed, or listen to the podcast. The Drilldown. Peter Schweizer.

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.

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.
