WATCH: 2 videos clearly show who America’s REAL fascists are

The far-left continues to perpetuate their new favorite lie: That conservative Americans, or ‘MAGA Republicans,’ are a dangerous threat to not only the nation, but to overall democracy as well. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, in this clip, Glenn plays two videos that prove conservative principles are the TRUE American ones. So, which political side do YOU think is harboring the real fascists?

GLENN: We are -- we are entering a time right now, where Europe is going to -- I think Europe is going to collapse before we do.

I think Europe is going to head for some real, real problems, in the next few months.

Perhaps this winter. And we also have people that are pushing for violence here in the United States. Cut three.

VOICE: This means war. That is where we are. We are at war with these people. These folks are evil.

VOICE: There is an ultra right MAGA contention, and this country that wants to overthrow the U.S. government.

VOICE: It is a danger to our democracy. It is a danger to our way of life.

VOICE: The MAGA movement is a threat.

VOICE: The extremists that we're dealing with every single day, we have to kill and confront that movement.

VOICE: To the elite, this is literally a call to arms.

VOICE: Obviously, Republicans I think are the biggest threat to democracy. We don't separate right-wing extremists and the Republican Party anymore.

VOICE: I see this as a party, a MAGA party that is no longer confident that they can win elections with votes. And so now they're seeking to enact their political will through violence.

VOICE: This is literally what conservative white folks do, when they don't get their way. They turn violent.

VOICE: Today's GOP is no longer a political movement, it is a fascist movement.

VOICE: And this is why it could be more dangerous than 1860 or the 1930s.

VOICE: To the elite, you know, this is a -- literally, a call to arms.

VOICE: Maybe now it is, all about the violence.

It all is about an insurrection.

It all is, in his mind, about a Civil War.

VOICE: It feels like we're not at the brink of a Civil War. But that one has already begun.

VOICE: The fact that the base is getting smaller. It makes it more dangerous in a lot of ways. Because those are the people willing to do things like take up arms, and press the tactics that lead to Civil War.

VOICE: This is one who held that office, who is basically saying to Americans, there should be Civil War.

VOICE: Look at what he's doing last night, as you know. That, you know, more or less salutes that either QAnon or almost look like Naziism.

VOICE: You saw the rally in Ohio the other night. Trump is there, ranting and raving for more than an hour. And you have these rows of young men with their arms raised.

VOICE: These crazed, deranged folks, who want to impart evil in every facet of our society.

VOICE: To the elite, you know, this is a -- literally, a call to arms.

GLENN: Okay. Stop.

STU: Literally.

GLENN: Literally. That one was selected to play over and over again because there's no two ways to take that. She says literally, a call to arms.

This is what's washing over your neighbors who are not paying attention. This is what they're seeing, almost 24/7. Drumbeat of this.

Here's the good news. Here's Telemundo. Cut four on elections, with Hispanics, and Latinx. Otherwise known as Latinos.

VOICE: Latinx are the largest -- the fastest growing group of votes, and the numbers are there.

We -- the Latino voters represent -- make up about one out of every ten voters.

But they're also very happy. I mean, the pandemic hit them very hard. The economy is hitting them very hard. Inflation is hitting. They are unhappy about the job quality, and you see the main issues Latinos care about, their rights, their economy, the job quality. So, yeah. This is a concern. And this can make things very difficult for Democrats. And also, the way Republicans are gaining -- that gap between Democratic -- Democrats and Republicans.

GLENN: All right. I want to play two things, and I want to ask you, which one reflects your belief?

Don't answer for anyone else. Just you. Which one reflects you?

Here's cut six. Kamala Harris.

VOICE: It is our lowest income communities, and our communities of color, that are most impacted, by these extreme conditions. And -- and impacted by -- by issues that are not of their own making. And so we -- absolutely.

And so we have to address this, in a way that is about giving resources based on equity. Understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity. Understanding that not everyone needs to start out at the same place. And if we want people to be in an equal place, sometimes we have to take into account those disparities and do that work.

STU: Please clap.

GLENN: Okay. That is -- that's Kamala Harris talking about how FEMA should approach the hurricane. With equity in mind. Instead of let's just help people that are in need.

If you're in need, I don't care what color you are, let's help. Does that reflect your view? Now, the guy who is called a fascist, has just said this, about people who are going in, and take advantage of people who are affected by the hurricane. DeSantis, seven.

VOICE: The other thing that we're concerned about, particularly in those areas, that are really hard hart. Is, you know, we want to make sure we're maintaining law and order.

Don't even think about looting, don't even think about taking advantage of people, in this vulnerable situation.

And so local law enforcement is involved. And monitoring that. You know, I told Kevin, the state needs to help as well. You can have people bringing boats into some of these islands.

And trying to ransack people's homes.

I can tell you, in the state of Florida, you never know what may be lurking behind someone's home. And I would not want to chance that, if I were you, given that we're a Second Amendment state.

GLENN: Which -- which one is the America that you know? The America that you stand for? Which one?

The one that says we're going to help people affected by the hurricane, based on equity, or the one that says, roll up your sleeves, when you see someone who needs help, help them. We don't need to ask them questions. We don't need to know where they live. We're just going to go in and help people.

Which one is the America? Which one is the America that you know? The one that questions and demands honest answers to hold our government responsible, or the America that holds you responsible, but they are never held accountable.

The one that can lie to you over and over, over and over again. And then, eventually, just come out and say it, and there's no repercussion for it.

The NIAID, which is headed by Anthony Fauci, just delivered a brand-new grant, to EcoHealth Alliance.

The grant delivers now five years of funding, for Peter Daszaks, controversial nonprofit group, to research, quote, the potential for future bat coronavirus.

Now, if you remember, it was a conspiracy theory, to say that any of this was happening.

The potential for future bat coronavirus, certainly, Fauci said, we don't do that. That's gain of function. We don't do that. EcoHealth doesn't do that. And it certainly didn't have anything to do over in China. And we showed you the paper trail. We showed you the facts. Now, without any fanfare, without any questions, the government comes out, and does it again.

Not learning from past mistakes. Denying that they do this, and then doing it out in the open, again!

Which is the America that you want to live in

Which is the America that is worth saving? Which is the one that you should be standing for? The one that lies to its citizens, or the one that has the government accountable to its citizens?

One is fascistic. The other is not. Because America seems to be so confused by fascism, the one that is pushing for limited government, and a government that responds to its people, and is held accountable by its people, that's not the fascist one.

EXCLUSIVE: Chip Roy Explains His FIERY Rejection of Spending Bill

According to the media, there’s a big fight going on between Republicans over the House’s new slimmed-down continuing resolution spending bill. Some, including President-elect Donald Trump, wanted the bill to pass. But others, like Texas Representative Chip Roy, argued that it still wasn’t ready. However, is the Republican “unity coalition” really crumbling, like the media claims? Rep. Chip Roy joins Glenn to explain what’s really going on. He argues that he IS trying to give Trump and DOGE a 100-day “runway” to fix the country. But he makes the case that, by increasing the debt ceiling by $5 trillion without agreeing on other cuts, this bill gives bad actors the ability to be an “obstacle” to Trump’s agenda further down the line. Plus, he reveals to Glenn that he believes some of these bad actors LEAKED false information about his stance to Mar-a-Lago.

GLENN:

I think we have a great opportunity today. To show you how to have a -- tough conversation, with friends, friends. Where you deeply disagree on something.

But you know that their intent is good. They know my intent is good. Or our intent is good.

And we actually have the same end goal, but we disagree on the path. And we're going to walk away friends.

Chip Roy is joining us today. And, Chip, I love you. And I always will. And I agree with your, we've got to cut spending. We have to. But Liz Wheeler is with me. And we've been talking about it all morning. It's the -- the -- the -- the system of DOGE and Trump, the call-out to the world, in saying, you've got to surrender the Capitol. You know, the bad guys are in and about to take all the money.

Surround, and tell them, come out with your hands up. And that happened. And we scored a massive win, in an entirely new way.

Ask then you stood on principle, one we both agree with.

And it failed!

And so here's -- here's what Liz and I were talking about. Here's what we want to say to you.

And then get your response.

LIZ: Hi, Congressman Roy, this is the way I see it. I want your take on it. I love you. I think you're one of the best members of Congress. I disagree with you on the process that's happening. And I think that is the difference. The process. We elected Donald Trump to be a disruptor. Because Republican members of Congress for decades have been telling they're fiscal conservatives. They want to decrease the debt SEAL. It hasn't happened.

It hasn't -- it hasn't been done. And so Donald Trump comes in with Elon Musk, and uses this DOGE process to first identify these pieces of garbage in the first 1500-page bill. And take those things to the people. We took them to members of Congress. Congress said, okay. We'll listen to you.

So that new process was very effective.

And my question to you is: Once that process was proved to be effective. Which I think is exciting and wonderful.

How do we bridge this divide, with you, to say, okay.

Let's put some faith in this new process. And trust Elon Musk and Donald Trump and the Dow Jones process, to eventually address the debt ceiling, but get this done right now?

GLENN: And not blind trust. Chip.

CHIP: So appreciate you guys. Appreciate being on the show. Particular order. I have to go through a couple of things.

GLENN: Yep.

CHIP: Number one, it's important to remember that my job and my duty is to the Constitution, to God, and the people I represent. I told them, when I came to Washington, I would not -- I would not let the credit card and the debt ceiling and the borrowing of the United States without the spending restraints necessary to offset it.

GLENN: Okay.

CHIP: Right now, all we have are promises and ideas and notions. What I know, that neither of you respectfully no, and that none of your listeners respectfully no are the people that are in the room, that I was in with yesterday. And the day before, who are recalcitrant.

And do not want to do the spending cuts that we need to do.

That I believe the president and the DOGE guys. And everybody want to do.

My job, is to force that through the meat grinder. To demand that we do our damn job. Okay?

GLENN: Okay. So hang on. Okay. So wait. Wait. You're right. You're right. You're right. Go ahead.

CHIP: Number thee, when we were going through the bill, I'm glad the bill dropped from 1,550 pages to 116 pages. Three-quarters of Twitter or X or whatever you want to call it, have been out there spreading false facts that we supported a bad bill and didn't like the better bill.

That's not true. But let's be Lear. The 1400 pages that were cut out. It's a panacea.

There were some good stuff in there. There were some bad stuff in there. There was a lot of disinformation.

There wasn't a $70,000 pay raise. There was a 3,000-dollar pay raise.

I didn't support any pay raise. I didn't support a lot of the stuff in there.

But there's a lot of misinformation. And here's the thing: The 116 pages that were left, and I opposed violently the first bill. I was leading the charge on fighting and killing the first bill.

GLENN: And I love you.

LIZ: The second bill for 116 pages. Turned off -- turned off the pay go requirement. That we slash 1.7 trillion automatically.

And added a 5 trillion that are increase.

My view was, I could not support that, without a clear understanding of what cuts we would get, in mandatory spending next year. And undo any of the Inflation Reduction Act.

The undoing of the student loans. The undoing of the crap with the food stamps.

And everything else. I yield back.

GLENN: Okay. I yield back.

Chip, you're not in a hostile room. We love you. And we agree with your end goals. It's our end goal too. We didn't make that promise that you made to the people that voted for you. So we have more wiggle room here.

But you say -- I think our big difference is, you say, I know the guys in the room.

You're right. You do. And we -- we ceded that earlier today on the show.

You are -- one of us is wrong on trust.

I don't trust any of the weasels in Washington.

But I think Donald Trump and Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have earned enough trust, to get a grace period, here for the first -- maybe the first year.

Or at least six months.

To turn the economy around, and also reduce the size of the government.

And totally flip this thing.

And I know, as somebody who is -- you know, run a company, mainly into a ground. But run a company, and have to switch it, in the middle, and totally reshuffle. That -- that actually costs money, while you're doing it, to bridge the gap.

Because you have to fill up holes while you're filling in the gap.

You don't trust the people in the room. Neither do we.

But we do trust the system that worked on Wednesday with DOGE and Donald Trump.

Where do we disagree?

Can you give them --

CHIP: We don't disagree. And yesterday morning, I was making that precise argument in a room full of conservatives and then a follow-up room with people who will call it, less conservatives.

GLENN: Republican. Yes.

CHIP: And so we were making this argument. And then someone infamously. Something leaked out of the room, somehow out to Mar-a-Lago. That I was being resistant. Because I was negotiating trying to get the agreement to achieve the objective that you just said. I was trying to get, okay. In fact, yesterday morning, I made the argument to a group of conservatives. We need to give the president runway. We need to give him his first 100 days. We need to appreciate JD, and Vivek, and all the people -- and everybody involved. For the president to achieve the objective.

But to get there. We have to make sure that the guys in the room, that are an obstacle to that, don't have the ability to block it.

Because information flow matters. And when those guys tell the president, they can't achieve X.

Then the president will not achieve X. Our job was to force and demand, guys, we need actual understanding of what the cuts will be.

And because otherwise, we're asking us to accept a 5 trillion-dollar limit in our credit card increase. In exchange for nothing!

Literally, in exchange for nothing, but -- but hope.

So our job was to force that change.

Unfortunately, while I was trying to make the argument that we needed something in order to get the votes, someone leaked that down to Mar-a-Lago, and the president reacted.

But now I have to now manage that.

GLENN: Right. I know. I know.

CHIP: They're trying to enforce change in town.

GLENN: So hang on.

We have to leave this. Because I'm going to run against the clock.

I could talk to you all day about this. You were in a meeting this morning about J.D. Vance. Can you tell us anything about that meeting?

CHIP: That meeting happened, because despite what happened yesterday, I'm trying to get this done. Last night, talking to JD, we worked to get this meeting done. We had some good progress this morning.

But there still remains people concerned about spending. That we can work out, what agreement we can reach. On what spending cuts. We can actually get next year, in exchange for giving the vote on a debt ceiling increase.

So it remains fluid. Progress was made. But we have to keep working on it.

And I left that meeting to talk to you. Soil get an update in a minute.

GLENN: Thank you for that, by the way.

I hear there is a new bill that may be coming today.

Is that the one you're talking about?

Or is this another bill that could be another nightmare?

CHIP: Despite other people leaking crap, I refused. I can't say, because it's not been decided by the speaker.

And it's not right to talk about things they're talking about in private meetings.

GLENN: Yeah, but it's -- it's this speaker. I mean, is he really the speaker anymore, Chip, really?

CHIP: We need to hear what bill we need to get forward. And I can't talk about the private meetings. But, look, I'm going to keep fighting for what I promised people that I represent.

I'm going to fight to cut spending. I am going to represent article one.

I'm going to support the president's agenda, but we've got to do that together.

GLENN: Okay.

Chip, thank you.

I think we can -- I think we agree, but I await to see what that means to you. Because we may just have to agree to disagree on this.

But I love you. And I still want you to replace Cornyn.

CHIP: The short version is, for inflation's sake, we cannot increase the debt ceiling $5 trillion without knowing what we're getting for it.

And I don't think anybody should disagree with that.

GLENN: But you don't disagree that Elon Musk and Trump and Vivek are serious about gutting the system.

CHIP: I believe that is their objective. I believe there are obstacles to that objective. And I need to know the sincerity of how we deal with those obstacles, both structural, and human. And we have to figure that out. And that's my job.
