GLENN: America.

Our churches and our pulpits must wake up.

Six pro-lifers who were convicted of charges, related to the Face Act, earlier on Tuesday, gathered alongside their friends and family. Outside of the federal courthouse, in Nashville, Tennessee. To sing and pray just minutes after being found guilty.

The six -- I should give their name. Chet Gallagher of Tennessee.

Coleman Boyd of Mississippi. Heather Idoni of Michigan. Carl Zastro of Michigan. Paul Vaughn of Tennessee. And Dennis Green of Virginia.

They all face up to 10.5 years in prison, and fines worth 260,000 dollars, after being convicted of conspiracy, against the rights and violation of the face act. A federal law criminalizing the use of force or threats of force, that prevent someone from ascending into an abortion facility.

Let me just tell you something, I saw the video. There were no threats. And there was no force. They were standing on the side of the hallway. Praying!

Despite the steep punishment they face after the convictions.

The six remained in good spirits.

These are the kind of people, that will bring blessings from heaven.

These are the kinds of people, that you -- when all is said and done, the next generation goes, that person was a hero.

Despite the steep punishment they face after the conviction, the six remained in good spirits.

And proceeded to sing and pray outside of the Fred Thompson courthouse, immediately after the verdict was announced.

The jury composed of eight women and four men, took just under four hours to find all six defendants of all charges brought against them by the Biden administration.

They said, quote, this is just normal Christianity. We love Jesus. We take the hits. And then we win.


STU: Hmm.

GLENN: As he spoke to the crowd, many family members were fighting back tears. That it gathered outside the courthouse.

He urged those present to write letters to the convicted, including Idoni, who is being held in a Washington, DC, prison over a similar case.

The group sang hymns like Holy, Holy, Holy, All Is Well With My Soul, and Amazing Grace, and also read passages like Psalm 91.

This is in Nashville, Tennessee. While this is going on, somebody who I don't condone this at all. But somebody who chopped the head off of the devil statue, a Satan statue, is also being tried and convicted and going to prison.

Hmm. They say it was a hate speech. Or a hate -- a hate act. A hate crime.

Well, seeing that Satan is the father of all hatred, he was just following through. And just following Satan, by sharing his hatred, I guess.

We have got to wake up.

Our system has been so corrupted, because we have allowed it to be this way.

New York City countless men, Yousef Salaam, a member of the Central Park five was pulled over in Harlem by police on Friday. Just days ahead of council vote on legislation, that would bury police and paperwork, over low-level stops.

Salaam complained about the traffic stop, suggesting he had been pulled over without a reason, and that racial bias was a factor. However, the cop was wearing a body cam.

He -- apparently, he was stopped.

And you see on the body cam. He said, I don't even know why he was pulled over.

He said, instead of answering my question, the officer stated, we're done here.

And he proceeded to walk away. The fact the officer did not provide a rationale for the stop. The only legal stop at a level three reasonable suspicion, or higher for a vehicle stop. Calls into question how the NYPD justifies its stops of New Yorkers. And highlights the need for greater transparency, to ensure they're all constitutional.

Yeah. Unfortunately, for him. Why did the cops stop him.

Because he had an out of date license plate from a different state, that was three years out of step.

He had moved to New York, three years before, never changed it.

I don't know. You get stopped for that?

I would. Then when he was stopped.

Now, remember, this -- this guy said, you know, we know the danger that is out there, every time -- a single time a black man, in particular, gets behind the wheel of a car.

The other reason why the cop stopped him. Is because his windows were tinted so heavily. That it couldn't see the -- you want to stop for race.

He couldn't see through the window, to what the driver was.

When he approached the car. He said, could you roll down the back window please. Because a cop had been shot by somebody with tinted windows like that, in the backseat.

Then he looks in. No threats lurking behind.

He identifies himself. And Salaam interrupts him, saying, I'm council member, Salaam.

This district. District nine.

What did the cops say back to him?

See, this is where the racial bias really comes in.

He said, oh, okay. Have a good one. You're working, right?

Yeah. Take care, sir.

That's what happened.

If this guy stays on the council in New York City, write it off.

If you can get away with besmirching, and probably would have gotten this guy fired. Had it not been for his body cam.

And he was this polite, what will these people do to you?

Nothing matters, to them.

Nothing matters.

Look at all the crime, that is happening.

And what are they doing?

They're going after religious people that are singing hymns.

This is such an important election.

You've got to sign up to make sure that you are on the board, so you can see and you can be somebody who is watching the polls.

Watch the counting.

I want Republicans there.

I want Democrats there.

I want independents there.

I don't want just one side.

I want honest brokers.

I don't know. Because I think that's what most people in America want.

It's got to be 90 percent of the people say. I just -- I don't care if my side loses, if it is fair!

But I don't want any corruption.

Well, unfortunately, all the people of power want that corruption.

Because they can use it to divide us and to control us.

By the way, more news on Michelle Obama. And I'm telling you, I think this is going to happen. Sources now claim, money men, behind Michelle could be the best candidate against Donald Trump. Money men have been contacted.

By apparently, in 2022, a trial balloon by Michelle Obama and her husband, to test if they can get support from Wall Street, et cetera.

She said, if I'm running, and I ask for your support, what would you -- would you -- would you back me?

Apparently. Apparently.

Then, she has just gone on to podcast. She admitted her concerns on Jay Shetty's podcast, on purpose.

Telling him, what's going to happen in this next election?

I'm terrified what could possibly happen. Who we select. Who speaks for us. Who holds that bully pulpit?

It affects us in ways sometimes I think people take for granted. The fact that people think that the government, does it really even do anything?

And I'm like, oh, my God. Our government does everything for us.

And we can't take this democracy for granted. I worry sometimes that we do. These are the things that keep me up at night.

Now, as Megyn Kelly mentioned. She doesn't have a book out. She doesn't have anything that she was promoting. Who called and said, hey. You should do this podcast with Michelle Obama.

What happened there?

And why is she saying this?

I don't know. Could be nothing. But I just want to point out to Stu, who likes to lose money in bets.

STU: My gambling record is incredible.

I mean, I don't even think, it's not even gambling for me.

I just win.

That's all. That's how it works.

GLENN: Really. Wow. Wow. Why are you still working here then?

STU: I need to get enough money, to get into the big bets.

I don't have a -- I'm working on it, though.

GLENN: Okay. So I see the market here.

Joe Biden has an implied probability of 80 percent.

But he is -- you have to -- how does this work?

Is this negative 400.

STU: Negative 400, you bet $400 to win $100.

In other words, you -- the overwhelming favorite, if you're minus 400.

GLENN: Okay. So Hillary Clinton, plus 5,000, Gretchen Whitmer. Plus 10,000.

Robert Kennedy, plus 6600. Tulsi Gabbard, plus 6600.

Elizabeth Warren, plus 5,000.

Kamala Harris, 1900.

Dean Phillips. Up --

STU: Plus 1900?

That means basically 19 to one.

GLENN: Yeah. Gavin Newsom, 800. To one.

And Michelle --

STU: Like eight to one.

GLENN: I -- I don't --

STU: So you bet $10, you get $80.

GLENN: Okay. Michelle Obama, plus 400.

STU: Bet $10, get $40 if you win.

GLENN: Okay. And Joe Biden, negative 400.

STU: Bet $40, get $10.

GLENN: So Michelle Obama was nowhere on this list, until recently. She's now popped up.

STU: I mean, look, people like you, are going to spend their money on people like Michelle Obama to win the nomination.

GLENN: You want to make a bet?

STU: Sure.

GLENN: What would you like to bet?

STU: What would you like to bet?

GLENN: Well, the last time we made a bet was years and years ago, where you had to go on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum.

STU: Wow. You remember that?

GLENN: Oh, I do. I do.

STU: Mid-2000s. Eagles' Super Bowl. I really wanted the day off to go to the game.

GLENN: Right. Right.

STU: You made me wager with you, that if the Eagles lost, I had to stand on the steps of the Rocky Museum, and say, Rocky was a loser too.

GLENN: Yeah

STU: That was...

GLENN: "Like all of Philadelphia, Rocky was a loser too."

And it made you very popular.

STU: I was very popular, and somehow made it out of their alive. But lived to enjoy an actual Super Bowl championship, so I don't know what kind of precedent you're setting here with this wager.

Look, do you actually -- what you've outlined with Michelle Obama is a plausible theory of something that could theoretically happen. Do you actually believe that it would happen.

GLENN: I do.

STU: More than 50 percent?

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: What -- give me a number, 75 percent?

GLENN: Sixty.

STU: 60 percent. We'll do 50/50. We'll have even odds. And I'll say, it will be Joe Biden.

You say, it will be Michelle Obama.

GLENN: So what does that mean. Even odds.

STU: Yeah. Ten dollars. Win $10.

GLENN: Okay. So let's bet a thousand bucks. Put your money where your mouth is.

STU: You're saying, you will give me a thousand dollars, if Joe Biden is the nominee for the Democrats?

GLENN: No. Wait. Wait. Wait. If he is the guy running when the election happens.

STU: When the election happens?

GLENN: Yeah. If he's the guy running when the election happens.

STU: Like, he's the guy on the ballot, he's the guy we're voting for or against on that day.

GLENN: And it's not some technicality. Like he's still on the ballot.

STU: Right. I'm willing to be totally -- yes. I'm in, 100 percent.

GLENN: All right. A thousand bucks. You've got it. It's a public bet. You can't back out of it. I, of course, can always say, that's not what America heard.

STU: That is what you'll say.

GLENN: I will not. I will not welch on that bet. I think there is a very strong chance that she is -- she is the one.

STU: I think it's plausible. I just think my value here is really good.

GLENN: Now, here's the thing.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: I think she's the one that could change everything. So am I doing -- is this a well-spent thousand dollars? Because if I'm saying, yeah. It's going to happen. It's not going to happen. We've learned that --

STU: You're hedging your life. I love that.

GLENN: It's worth a thousand dollars to me, that she doesn't run.

STU: Right. Tempt the fates.

GLENN: Tempt the fates.
