Today's the day, the new book, my new book, Propaganda Wars is out right now wherever you get your books. We talked with my co-author, Justin Haskins, to see what you can look for in the media, to see how you can discern the truth.

and how the left's lies work on so many. Propaganda war. We're in it. Mike Howell also talks about the FBI secretly supporting the BLM riots of 2020. And you can get your copy of Propaganda Wars at glensnewbook.com or wherever books are sold. It is vital you have a copy of this in case voices begin to be silenced. You'll know how to find the truth. It's the best of the Glenn Beck podcast, and it starts in 60 seconds.

Let me tell you about the Berna Launcher. It's important to have the right tool in your hand for the job. In a life and death situation, a gun at your side can definitely be the right tool for the job. But there are situations where deadly force isn't necessary, even the best way to go. Now, it can be used, you know, sure. But, you know, if you're...

If you're in a situation where you're not willing to pull a gun and kill somebody because it's not the right situation or you're just not willing to do it, burn a launcher can help you. We put these in our cars. They are, I think, fantastic in case you happen to be surrounded by cops.

You know, Kamala zombies, and they're out in the street, and they're surrounding your car. All you have to do is just open up the window a little bit and shoot a little tear gas at them. Yeah, that'll work. It'll work. Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn. Get 10% off your purchase. Check this out now. Made here in America in Fort Wayne, Indiana by Second Amendment lovers.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program. So today the book Propaganda Wars comes out. Justin Haskins is my co-author. He's going to be joining in just a little while. But I wanted to go over some of the stories that we have today in our daily newsletter, all of the stories that we look at, 60 to 90 stories a day.

They're all available every day, free. Just go to glenbeck.com, sign up for my free email newsletter. Every morning, you get all the news you need. But I want to go through some of those, and I want to show you some of the things that you're going to learn in Propaganda Wars. There is...

There is a system now, and I'm going to explain it in the next hour here just by going over some stories. There is a system now that our government, big corporations, the media, and social media are all a part of. And it is propaganda. It is the biggest propaganda machine ever. We shouldn't call the mainstream media mainstream anymore because, A, they're not mainstream anymore.

They are leftist. They are a propaganda organization. It is an industry now, and it is in collusion with our government. So how do you find what's real? Well, let me give you a couple of stories here. This is an easy one. First of all, you have to understand there are several kinds of lies. Let's just look at two of them here. One is the lie of commission, which is what, Stu?

Lie of commission. You're coming out and you're saying something you know to be false. Okay. Lies of commission. You are actually saying something that is a lie. What is the lie of omission? Leaving out an important detail that would disprove what you're saying. Correct. Right. And that's just as important. There's tons of lies of omission.

And that used to be the way the media works is they would just leave things out. They still do. But now they're also committing lies of commission saying things they know are not true. For instance, Donald Trump, you know, saying they're very fine people on both sides. Okay. The lie of omission is,

is saying, well, that's not what he said exactly. He said, I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and white supremacists. Okay, that's a quote. I'm not talking about the Nazis and white supremacists. So at first, it's a lie of omission. They're leaving that out. At this point, by bringing it up over and over again and saying that that's what he said, you're now engaged in a lie of commission.

You're lying about it knowingly. All right. So how do you find the stories? Well, let's look at first lies. How do you find out what's a lie? It's almost impossible now, isn't it?

Well, yeah, it is. But one of the things you have to do, and we outline a whole list of these things because I want to teach you how we look at news. And I get it wrong sometimes as well because I'll violate one of these principles because usually it's because this is so good. This has got to be true, right? Have you ever said that? This has got to be true. Oh, my gosh, this has got to be true. Now, it's getting harder and harder to...

Because crazier and crazier things are true. And so you're like, I don't know. We've lost the common sense thing now. Because what's happening, why it's so easy to convince you of lies is because the truth is so damn crazy. Right? So first thing you have to do is look at people's records. If they have knowingly lied to you in the past,

and then they've never apologized for it, they've never admitted they're wrong, you must dismiss them and disregard everything they're saying. Now, that doesn't mean they only lie. It means they know that they have knowingly lied to you several times and never turned around, never said. For instance, anybody who said at first,

You know, he said that, you know, there are very fine people on both sides and they didn't see the video. And this usually happens with media. One person will report it and then everybody else just dogpiles on and repeats it.

For instance, do you remember when Israel was said to have blown up this hospital? Do you remember? They blew up this hospital, and Al Jazeera said, well, we go through that whole story in the book. No, Al Jazeera didn't say that. It was a mistranslation. However, when real journalists actually investigated how this whole thing traveled the world and

So rapidly, they realized nobody checked. No one checked. One person reported it, and so everyone else reported it. They were like, well, the BBC reported it, so it must be true. Well, no, it's only true if the BBC checked it and verified its truth. But it was not easily dismissed. You actually had to pick up the phone and call somebody saying,

to be able to get the truth. But everybody was rushing because it fit the narrative they wanted. So if somebody lies to you, that's the first thing. Just don't pay attention to them. Block them. Honestly, block them. I can't block them because I need to see what the other side is saying. So we read everything.

And honestly, I think that's healthy because sometimes they do tell the truth. And it's also important to see where they're headed. What is the narrative from the deep state? So the reason why I bring this up is first, a source I trust is John Solomon. Why do I trust John Solomon?

Well, he was a guy who was a Wall Street Journal investigative reporter that did reporting for the New York Times, everybody else. And he was heralded as a great reporter. Everybody agreed he's a great reporter. Not only that, but he left the Wall Street Journal and he left and it didn't help him to leave, at least at first. It was not good for him to leave.

He left a celebrated career. Now, why did that happen? I believe, didn't the New York or the Wall Street Journal, they fired him, didn't they, for reporting something? Or he was, I can't remember exactly, or he was just like, I can't do this anymore. And he started something that disagrees with me sometimes on pretty big issues.

If somebody disagrees with you on some pretty big issues or doesn't read things exactly the same or tells you slow down, slow down, slow down, we're not sure yet, that's a sign of somebody you can trust if they also admit their mistakes, which John Solomon does. So he has credibility. Now,

Now I tell you why I'm looking at this story from Just the News on John Solomon. And let's go back to the lies of omission and commission. Here's the story today. Harris's insult to the people of faith follows two decades of Democratic divisive or Democrats divisive comments that began with Barack Obama and his clinging to gods and guns and religion rhetoric.

Back in 2008 presidential race, then Senator Barack Obama paid a heavy political price when he mocked Americans he claimed were clinging to guns and religion. His opponent for the Democratic Party nomination, Hillary Clinton, now listen to this, immediately pounced and suggested he was an elitist out of touch with Americans who believed in God. Now that's an important statement, isn't it?

to recollect actual history? Because if you didn't live at that time, weren't paying attention, or you've just been on the side of the leftist media or now the propaganda industrial complex, you would never think that Hillary Clinton did that. But she came out and spoke on behalf of the religious people, because she was running against him, and said he's an elitist out of touch.

And the mainstream media declared Obama was forced on the defensive by his insensitive, if not elitist, remark. So the mainstream media, why? At the beginning, remember, they were for Clinton. Why? She held all the cards in the power.

Until it was decided that she would acquiesce to Barack Obama. Then the media all of a sudden jumped on that bandwagon. Have we seen that before? Have we seen that since?

Two decades later, the candidate for whom Obama is now stumping, Vice President Kamala Harris, just made a similar comment that could have similar reproductions even through the mainstream media political, even though the mainstream political reporting core is this time having to avoid giving it much attention.

At a Harris campaign event, La Crosse, Wisconsin, last Thursday, two pro-life students in the crowd shouted, Jesus is Lord, as she spoke about her support for abortion. Harris immediately made it clear the two were not welcome at her event. Oh, you two are at the wrong rally, she said. No, I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street. In the 2008 election, Obama's tart words became costly because legacy media covered them.

In 2024, Harris's retort is proving costly because the traditional news industry didn't cover them, but the new media and social media like TikTok amplified the moment to millions of Americans. So what is he saying here? If it wasn't for social media, if it wasn't for new media, you probably wouldn't know about this because the old media, the...

the propaganda industrial complex, they're not reporting on it. So what does that tell you? That tells you you can't trust the mainstream media. Don't get all of your news from the mainstream media. Half of the country does that. You are going to meet in the coming months and years people who will argue with you that things even happened.

They won't understand what you're even talking about. You look to them like conspiracy people because they've never heard of these events. That reinforces the propaganda that they are being fed, that you're out of your mind crazy, and you just make things up. Got it? It's a self-reinforcing system.

So when you're arguing with people, this also goes into they may not have a clue as what you're talking about. So when you say, no, it happened, and they say, no, it didn't. Don't get mad. Get the facts because they've never read it, saw it, watched it, or even heard of it.

So there's a lot of our arguments that are happening because of the lie of omission. Most of the stuff we argue about is stuff they've never heard. For instance, if you listen to mainstream media, and that's where you get all your news, the very fine people thing is something that sticks in your craw, and you're like, how could you possibly vote for this guy? He said there were very fine people voting,

And he was talking about the Nazis and white supremacists. And they're dedicated to that. They actually believe that because they've been misled. And they still trust those sources. As a moral and religious people, those of us who are still part of that group, we are all that stands in the gap between this bloodthirsty death cult that has taken over a massive chunk of the left and our nation.

and the innocent children that they kill every day in this country. We have to change the hearts and minds of people, and we're not going to do it by shouting against, you know, people who are going in to have an abortion.

We have to love the mother and we have to love the child. I'm so proud to partner with Preborn because all they do is they sponsor free ultrasounds for women. And then they provide them with help for two years after the baby is born. So they don't just advocate for the baby's life and then forget about them once they're born. The left thinks we act that way, but we don't.

When a mom sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears that heartbeat, she's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby. And they save 200 babies a day with help from people like you. One ultrasound is just $28. Five ultrasounds, $140. Donate securely. Just dial pound 250. Pound 250. Say the keyword baby. Preborn.com slash Beck. Now back to the podcast.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program, and we really want to thank you for listening.

All right. Justin Haskins is with us. He is the co-author of Propaganda Wars, How the Global Elite Control What You See, Think, and Feel. We have a lot to cover today. I don't think we're going to be able to get to all of it, but it's really important, especially right now, for two reasons. You will see how big this is. This is beyond the media. This is beyond social media. This is global.

And if we have time today, I want to get into what's actually happening with our governments worldwide with the five eyes. It is terrifying what they have done behind your back.

Also, we want to talk about this election and foreign influence. There's a big story today on foreign influence, and you will understand it when you read Propaganda Wars. That story will suddenly make sense to you. So will the story of we just raised one billion dollars. Did you? Did you now?

We'll get into that here in a second. But we were talking last hour about the new appointee for Harris's campaign. She's a global warming extremist that says, if you are in the oil and gas business at all, you're a terrorist. You're an eco-terrorist. She is somebody who is so extreme that

On global warming, she doesn't like capitalism. She she doesn't like oil and gas or anything like that. So why would she join the Kamala Harris campaign, leave Bernie Sanders legislation team and go and be the spokesperson on economic? I'm sorry, on ecological issues and.

Why would she join Kamala Harris? Because an extremist would say she's changing everything she's doing. She's saying she's not going to even go after fracking anymore, that she's going to approve new oil leases. She's opposed to the Green New Deal. Right. She's a traitor to everything I believe. That's what she should say. But she didn't. She joined on and then said, no, Kamala has really changed her mind. She's a

She's not going to do any of those things. Okay? You have to ask why. Why? So we went into that yesterday. Now let me, or earlier today, let me go into the education czar. What's his exact title? Yeah, it is. He's actually one of the people helping implement the framework or curriculum for the new ethnic studies standards in the state of Minnesota. Okay. Okay.

Remember, you were told by the propaganda machine...

That CRT is nothing. First of all, it's not anything. It didn't, it doesn't even happen. It doesn't exist. We're not even doing that. Just a bunch of academics talking. And we got to that phase. Then we got to, okay, it's in there, but it doesn't mean what you think it means. It's totally harmless. Now we don't even talk about it anymore. Remember this came in under Biden Harris. This came into our schools. They didn't dare release it under Donald Trump.

But they put it into our schools after the election. Now, what does it mean? Well, it certainly doesn't mean an end to the United States of America. That's what Tim Walz would say. Then if that's true, why would he hire this guy? His name is Brian Lozenski. He is a associate professor of urban and multicultural education in St. Paul University.

He was helping with not just the ethnic studies, but also the social studies standards, citizenship and government, economics, geography, history, and now ethnic studies. This comes from Stanley Kurtz, by the way, did a great job reporting on this. Let me give you now his thoughts on CRT and what its role is in the schools, but also what it actually means and what he believes about it. And...

We're also sometimes lying on ourselves when people say like, oh, we can we use critical race theory in school. We don't use critical race theory in school. The first tenet of critical race theory is that the United States as constructed is irreversibly racist. So if the nation state as constructed is irreversibly racist, then

then it must be done with. It must be overthrown, right? And so we can't be like, oh, no, critical race theory is just about telling our stories and diverse. It's not about that. It's about overthrow. It's insurgent. And we need to be, I think, more honest with that. And it's funny that they don't understand critical race theory, but they actually tell some truth when they're like, yeah, it is anti-state. You can't be a critical race theorist and be pro-U.S.,

Okay, it is an anti-state theory that says the United States needs to be deconstructed, period. Right? Like that's, you know, and so I think it's an interesting argument there. And that's why I'm a critical race theorist. Oh, that's why he's a critical race theorist. Because, you know, the overthrow of the government and the insurgency and all. Now, you might say if you had a picture taken with you at a party with this man.

you know you're going to deny that you're you're going to you're going to say i didn't i didn't i had no idea who that guy was no idea who that guy was think about the prospect of not only associating yourself with him but also promoting him to design the curriculum for the students of minnesota

This guy is out there. He's a teacher. He's a football coach, a hunter. He's America's dad. That's what you just heard is who Tim Walz actually is. What he's telling you is that he's America's dad, but that's who he really is. That's what he wants. He, his education department chose that guy to design your kids' classes.

So the first thing to avoid propaganda is to constantly ask why and be willing to accept the truth. So there are so many Democrats right now that won't accept that. Why? Because they'll hear it from me or they'll hear it from Fox News. So it's a convenient way just to dismiss it.

But there's the audio of the guy, Tim Walls, put in charge of the history and critical race curriculum in Minnesota schools. Right.

Yeah, I mean, I think what's so important about Propaganda Wars is we want to equip people with the ability to figure out these things on their own. Okay? We don't want people just relying on shows like this. We need people to become trusted sources of information in their own lives. Teach people how to be citizen journalists. This is what we desperately need. And what you find when you go to the original sources over and over and over again, what we discovered and what we outline in this book is

that there is a propaganda industrial complex, that it goes well beyond just what's in the media, that there is a vast network of left-wing groups and big money organizations and others, many of whom people listening to this show as active

active listeners as they may be have never heard of some of these organizations. Now you brought up the education thing. This is really interesting. So in the first chapter of the book where we just talk about how screwed up everything is, it's called Welcome to Clown World. We talk about this nonprofit organization called Education Trust West. That's the name of it. Education Trust West.

They are one of these people that believe that there's all this racism inherently in mathematics. They believe that public education has a responsibility to inject social justice ideology into every subject, including mathematics.

They said, and this is a direct quote, that finding the correct answer to a math problem is, quote, white supremacy culture, unquote. Now, they've been distributing these workbooks all over the country in California, in Georgia, in Ohio. Are those far left wing states? Yes.

California is, but not Georgia and Ohio. These things are everywhere. Now, we get into who these major players are, not just these kinds of organizations, but who's funding them. Where do they get their money? Because they're not selling these books out to the public. Well, they just so happen to get their money from a little organization, just a tiny little one most people have never heard of, called the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

So they're pumping all this money into these textbooks that are teaching kids at the local level that racism is everywhere. It's you're a white supremacist. If you're trying to get people to find the right answer, this is everywhere. And so what you have to do and what we try to show people in this book is that you have to find the sources of the misinformation. It's not just enough to,

to say, well, that's crazy. That's the kind of thing that happens in Portland. Well, yeah, it does happen in Portland, but it's also happening in Ohio. It's also happening in Georgia. And it's because these organizations exist everywhere. The network is vast. George Soros and people like that are pouring hundreds of millions and billions of dollars worldwide into these kinds of efforts.

And if you don't know who they are, you don't know what to look out for. So one of the biggest questions that I have gotten over the years, and I hear it asked very seldom now, and I wonder why, used to be, why would these people do this? Why would Bill and Melinda Gates do this? Why would they teach that math is racist?

Because you have to now start to think unlike Americans used to think. Americans used to think, well, we all want what's best. You now have to understand what the elites think is best is best for them, not for you.

They are teaching our children to be slaves. They are teaching them not to ask questions. Let me ask you, if you believe that math is racist, therefore, I don't really have to do it. It's racist to ask me to do it. It's racist for me to try to figure it out on my own. How do those people build bridges? How do those people even even measure a wall to make a house?

How do you do the basic stuff that you have to do if you can't do math? Elon Musk, what he did, it already kind of looks like magic to me, but I know it's all based in science. But if I find out that science and mathematics is racist, I can't do what Elon Musk, I can't even explain what Elon Musk is doing. It does become magic.

These people are training a whole continent, in fact, the whole world, the Western world, to be slaves. You cannot think for yourself. Why would they do that? Because they have control. They want the money. They want the power. And they actually believe, and so do I in many ways, that if they control AI, they win.

Once they control AI, and Putin has said this, whoever gets it first controls the world.

They're putting all of their eggs in that basket. And we unfortunately have been saying to ourselves, you know what, AI, why even learn that? AI is going to teach you. You could just go online and just say, hey, how do I build a bridge? And it will show you. So why do I even have to learn math? Why do I have to learn to read when I can just say, AI, what does this say? What is that about? Can you write a paper on that for me?

We're being taught to rely not on technology, on those who control the technology. You're streaming the best of Glenn Beck. To hear more of this interview and others, download the full show podcasts wherever you get podcasts. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Welcome. Glad you're here. A big happy frog, a plump purple cat.

Gosh.

That is disappointing. Especially for, I mean, this is designed for kids one to three who can't even read. Wow. And it's beating you by several places on this list. Well, we are the underdog against brown bear, brown bear. Yeah. But Propaganda Wars available at Glenn's New Book, glennsnewbook.com or wherever you find your books. We have Mike Howell in. He is the Oversight Project Executive Director from Heritage and

And he's got a little story here about BLM and how our government, how our FBI is

kind of endorsed BLM and supported the riots. Wait till you hear this. Welcome to the program, Mike. Thank you for having me. So I know about Neil Team 6, but a lot of people might not know that reference. Can you explain what happened and then the documents that you have uncovered? So

So, "kneel team six" refers to a group of, I think, predominantly female FBI agents who, during a BLM riot in Washington, D.C., went outside and kneeled in solidarity with the rioters. And think about how outrageous that is. The FBI is supposed to be our top legal arm in this country, and here they are in the midst of the country burning down in front of everyone's eyes, kneeling in solidarity with the rioters.

And this guards some traction on social media and elsewhere. And some of the pictures are absolutely outrageous. You have a woman in there who clearly can't pass any sort of physical fitness test. It's just a terrible look for the FBI. We sued the FBI for documents surrounding this incident back in 2020. And what we found and released yesterday is that it wasn't just this

isolated incident of some liberal sect of the FBI. No, it was approved and sanctioned by the FBI brass in their reaction to it, in which they basically tried claiming that this is a de-escalation move and that it wasn't an act of partisan solidarity. We all know that's completely ridiculous.

And they ended up rewarding these agents with promotions for a lot of them. And then even the FBI, you know, agents kind of group that's external gave them gift cards as a reward. And, you know, you don't get a gift card as a reward if you get shot as an FBI agent. And they're giving them out to people who are taking the side publicly of the criminals. And it gets a lot worse. There was a video of it that was posted on TikTok. It went very viral. That's why most people know about this thing. Well, the video is mysteriously gone, Glenn. Why?

Why would a viral video on TikTok go missing if the FBI didn't ask for it to go missing? And so you have elements potentially of what screams of a cover up. And, you know, to all of your listeners out there, I'll say, if you can find that video on the Internet, it's out there somewhere. We'll make it worth your time. I got to talk to the lawyers about exactly how we'll do that. But it will make it worth your time because that's that's a big piece of evidence here. What was in the video?

It's a TikTok video of the rioters marching in Washington, D.C., and then the agents kneeling in solidarity with them. And why the video is important, because you'll realize that there was no need for de-escalation on the FBI's part. They weren't cowering in fear and taking a knee because they didn't want to rile up the rioters. They were doing it in a celebratory manner. They were pumping their fists. They were cheering. They were basically part of the riot. And they're supposed to be our nation's top cops. And

And they should have been thrown out of the Bureau that very second. And instead of it, that they were greeted with gift cards, rewards, promotion, all praise from the very tippity top of the brass, including our director, Christopher Wray. You shouldn't. I mean, isn't it a law or at least a longstanding tradition at worst that you don't take and make political statements in uniform?

That's absolutely the case. First off, it's a fundamental principle, the idea of law enforcement, the FBI is supposed to be on the side of the good guys against the rioters, not on the side of the rioters. But what this looks like in a legal context is you can't do these partisan things that violates the Hatch Act. And so when that issue was raised, instead of the FBI, you know, legal eagles taking a look at it, they referred the, the,

the decision down to their lowest level junior lawyers. And this junior lawyer, I think it's an associate division counsel who doesn't even have the authority or institutional respect, basically said, no, nothing to see here and wash your hands of it. But that's what the FBI does when they want something to die. Any serious lawyer would look at this and see it's

obviously partisan political and the context you remember twenty twenty the summer of love you have yet the irish using to investigate the clear corruption the biden's time and time again and doing what i would argue is obstruction of actual justice on the party at the i_q_ live by another and then doing everything they can to open anything and everything against president trump

And then when the country's burning down, joining in with the foot soldiers of the left, which are BLM. And of course, there was nothing that happened from the FBI adverse to the BLM or anything of scale compared to J6. No. And so this is why we are where we are. These

These acts of weaponization in 2020 that were allowed to happen are what Biden's in the White House right now. And then we could talk about election weaponization, law enforcement weaponization, the whole gamut. And so it's not just about kneeling at a riot. It's about the nation's most powerful law enforcement entity being deeply, deeply partisan in the most obscene ways. They say that it is only the upper tier, but...

You don't see a lot of FBI agents coming out and standing up against this stuff. Why is that? Yeah, that's one of the most frustrating talking points. It's only a few bad apples at the top. It is not. Right now, the FBI has been through a generation of recruiting from the far left. You have transgender people probably going through Quantico as we speak. You have these diversity pushes. It is it is infected the entire bureaucracy. OK, and of course, the top is

full of rotten bad apples but at the mid and bottom levels there's a lot more and guess what they'll be at the top pretty soon why are more people speaking out because to get a it's it's career suicide and you know i speak to a lot of folks who have you know either you know been around and know this place pretty well if you want to get ahead you open on trump and you refuse to open on anyone that is on the left that is how you get ahead in the fbi you might as well resign

if you're willing to fight crime that the left is so openly and flagrantly committing, let alone doing anything about a riot in front of your own face. So have I been just stupid my whole life to believe that the majority of people who are in something like the FBI believe in the same things that I do, that they believe in integrity and fidelity and all of those things? Have I just been a dope my whole life?

Well, I'm not going to call you a dope, Glenn. I think a lot of people of goodwill have struggled to come to terms with the fact that our institutions have been captured, and not just in the landing beach at the top or some of the political influences on them, but a long-term project has been executed and implemented. Right now, DEI is the way to do that, to get the foot soldiers into law enforcement. This is how you end up with someone like May Yorkus, who's the head of DHS.

he spent his career as a prosecutor knowing that if you could you know live-action roleplay as being the law and order guy but having marxist aims he could work through the system in turn that way and there's a lot of other mayorkas lights uh... getting there you know spurs at organizations like the f_b_i_ and other places that hold badges and guns it is not

just a few bad apples. It is not just a leadership problem, although people of goodwill want to have faith in these institutions. I'm here to tell your listeners the institutions have been captured. The capture is near complete. It's about total restoration at this point, not just a few nitpicks and taking a couple people out. So if Donald Trump loses, I think we're in

real trouble because if what you say is true, which I believe it is, they just can't let people continue to find them out and talk about this and everything else. They'll just shut us all down. We're in real trouble. But if Donald Trump wins,

Can this be turned around? Do you have the confidence that he knows what it is this time? Because I don't think he did. He has a great gut on him, but I don't think any of us had an idea how deep this thing went. Do you think he does? And can it be done?

Nobody knows more about the depths of lawfare and weaponization than President Donald J. Trump. The man's been shot at multiple times. He's been a criminal defendant in all these worked up cases. He's had investigations opened on him relentlessly for nothing, while his political opponents are allowed to commit fraud on a massive international scale with fraud.

law enforcement not only condoning it but obstructing investigations into it and the media propagandizing anything surrounding it. And so nobody knows the problem set better than President Trump because no one's been a victim of it more than him. The project of overhauling these what are supposed to be neutral instruments for a constitutional republic to work to

to actually have the will of the people, you know, have a say in their own government, means we have to return these instrumentalities to neutral, whether it's law enforcement, the courts and legal system, whether it's our election system, which is no longer a neutral instrument. That requires a complete rethinking and restoring. And a lot of times it's going to be a lot of firings, a lot of reassignments. And I hope that President Trump has the political will to see that project through. I have no doubt that he does.

It just won't be an easy one. There's going to be a lot of critics out there, people saying, oh, it's just a few bad apples. Why are you picking on these mid-level guys? But to save this country requires doing what I've laid out, or else it's just a four-year pause on the trajectory of all this. There's going to be a lot of FBI agents transferred to Alaska. Alaska, luckily, has enough space to build houses for all of those that can't be fired.

Thank you so much. I appreciate everything you're doing, everything that the Heritage Foundation is doing as well, Mike. This is Mike Howell from Heritage, heritage.org. They released this news yesterday. There are big changes that are coming. You know, I love that Kamala Harris is...

is known as the agent of change. I think she is. She will take us in the same direction, but a lot faster. But if you really don't believe that the country is on the right track, Donald Trump is the change agent. Believe me, vote for him and things will change. Na, na, na.
