Best of the Program | Guests: Ezra Levant & Miad Maleki | 4/13/26

Glenn Beck and Ezra Levant dissect the Eric Swalwell scandal, alleging CNN suppressed 50 abuse allegations until he became a political liability. They analyze Ireland's grassroots protests against fuel taxes and immigration policies, linking them to broader free speech battles involving Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk. The discussion covers collapsed U.S.-Iran peace talks, attributing failure to Trump's Strait of Hormuz blockade threat while noting America's pivot as the world's primary oil supplier. Ultimately, the episode frames these events as evidence of media bias and shifting global power dynamics challenging established narratives. [Automatically generated summary]

Patriot Mobile Sponsorship 00:03:01
There is so much.
There's the war, the bang bang that's going on in the war, and then there's the bang bang happening with Eric Swalwell.
Gosh, what a surprise.
Good thing that CNN is on the case saying this is good journalism that ratted that out.
No, it's not.
It has nothing to do with journalism.
It has everything to do with he was hurting the progressives in California, and so they decided he's no longer worth it.
Let's go ahead and let him pay for all of the mistakes that we have been covering up.
But you'll notice.
There's 50 people that came out and said that he was sexually abusing me while he was in office.
You will never see anybody go after who covered this up.
Never.
Because it's only about the gubernatorial race in California at this point.
Also, we talk about the Strait of Hormuz, how it may end up actually benefiting us.
Is there another way that the president may be looking at this?
And Ezra Levant talks to us about what happened in Ireland.
There are protesters on the streets and.
Freedom and freedom of speech is really on the rocks in Ireland.
We'll bring you up to speed on that and so much more on today's podcast.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor, it's Patriot Mobile.
Sometimes you make a change and almost immediately you have that thought, why did I wait so long to do that?
Because it wasn't hard, it wasn't risky.
Once you've done it, it feels really, really obvious, like it was the right move all along.
Okay, that's what this is with switching over to Patriot Mobile.
It's really simple.
And you're going to say to yourself, why didn't I do that a long time ago?
You're going to get the same exact reliable coverage because they are on all three major carrier networks.
They have plans that fit your life, 100% U.S.-based customer support.
And as if that's not enough, there's something even better.
Because when you pay your bill, you know, some of that money that you pay to Verizon goes to Planned Parenthood.
Okay, I'm not for that.
When it goes to Patriot Mobile, That money goes to defend our Bill of Rights, our Constitution, our Declaration, the things that we're fighting for every day.
Why haven't you done this yet?
I know you think it's a hassle, but they make it so easy.

Hello, America.
You know we've been fighting every single day.
We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
But to keep this fight going, we need you.
Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
Give us five stars and leave a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
This isn't a podcast.
Irish Government Immigration Strike 00:15:47
This is a movement.
And you're part of it, a big part of it.
So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.
Rate, review, share.
Together, We'll make a difference.
And thanks for standing with us.
Now let's get to work.
I'm going to give you a poll from the insiders.
And this does not reflect, I think, the average American, but it shows if you are told the bigger picture, if you understand what I told you a few minutes ago about oil prices and what Donald Trump is actually doing in the Middle East, which would explain his tweet from last week that nobody talked about the biggest reset in history.
Once you understand what he's doing, you have more tolerance.
So we ask Are temporary high gas prices acceptable in the fight against Iran?
Most people knee jerk no.
But if you understand what's going on and see the bigger picture, 95% of the insiders say, yes, I'll tolerate high gas prices if it resets the world toward America.
No, Americans are already struggling.
We shouldn't be forced to struggle more.
5%.
I think that's wildly out of step with the average American, but that shows once you have an understanding, you begin to say, I'll take the short term hit.
Now, In Ireland, and it's beginning in France, they are having so many problems with the price of oil.
To fill up a truck now in Ireland is about $1,000 if you're a semi.
$1,000 to fill up a truck, it's $200 to fill up an average car.
How are you going to do that?
Especially in Ireland, where the economy has been decimated for so long.
The problem is not the price of oil per se, the problem is just like California, half of what they're paying is going to taxes.
And so the people started standing up against this to say, you got to give us tax relief here.
And the government started to say, we're going to arrest these protesters.
And it's only gotten worse.
This weekend in Ireland was our good friend Ezra Levant.
He is from Rebel News up in Canada.
And Ezra, thank you for going and helping us understand exactly what's happening.
Tell me, the press is going to make these people into dangerous radicals and revolutionaries.
Who are the people that are protesting?
Well, I tell you, first of all, thanks for having me on the show.
Second of all, I've become such an Ireland fanboy.
I've been there nine times over the last two years.
And it's a small country, only 5 million people.
You can drive across the whole island in less than a day.
So they have a real communal connectedness.
It's almost like everyone knows a cousin somewhere.
And the reason I mention that is it's almost as if the whole country has collectively, over their dining room table, decided enough is enough.
And.
It's sort of incredible because all across the country, ordinary farmers and truckers, it's almost like a spontaneous movement because they're not represented in Parliament, either by the government or the official opposition, but just grassroots, ordinary Irish farmers and truckers have started blocking roads and blocking other key infrastructure, slowing the whole country down to a crawl.
But here's the incredible thing the people who are inconvenienced by it, they're supportive of it.
Most Irish support, I'd almost call it a national strike.
And we were on the highways and it was extremely inconvenient.
And we would stop and chat with the people blocking the roads.
None of them have ever been to a protest before in their lives.
They're all wearing their working clothes, like farmers dressed in their high vis vests.
And it's the realest people you've ever met.
I asked every one of them two questions.
The first is, why are you here?
And they all said, the fuel taxes are just too much.
So this is a tax revolt.
Sort of like, you know, the Tea Party, or the, you know, it's a little bit, I don't want to call it American style because the Irish are rebellious in their own way.
And the second question I asked each one, like these people are blocking major highways, I understand.
So I said to every one of them, what are the cops saying to you?
Every single one said the cops are giving them the thumbs up, not telling them to move.
Now, there have been some incidents where the cops have gotten a little rough, but in the main, the country is being shut down.
It's almost like a general strike.
So, the government is not reacting well to this.
I mean, first they started to go after them.
Now they're starting to go after the media and saying that the media is distorting this.
I mean, what is happening to freedom in Ireland?
Well, Ireland is such a disconnect between the people and the government.
Let me give you three quick examples mass immigration.
I mentioned there are 5 million people in Ireland, 1 million of them are foreign born.
And there's such mass immigration.
It's the fastest mass immigration in the Western world.
Like, it's astonishing.
And that's driven up the price of housing and everything out of reach for the ordinary Irish.
Like most places, mass immigration is deeply unpopular, but both the government and the opposition support it.
So, what's an Irishman to do?
You can't really vote for any of the main parties.
So, that's one factor.
Here's another they had a constitutional referendum.
I don't know if you've ever read the Irish constitution, that's not something most people do.
But it's actually an amazing document.
There's a section on motherhood.
Can you believe it?
They talk about the value of mothers and protecting mothers and their right to raise kids at home.
It's an incredible.
I've never seen that in any world constitution ever.
Well, for some weird reason, the entire establishment thought, let's get rid of that.
So they had a reference.
Oh, my God.
What do you think the people said?
It was an overwhelming rebuke of the entire establishment.
Of course, they didn't want to get motherhood out of the Constitution because you know what that means.
That gets rid of the definition of a woman, the definition of a.
Like, it was crazy.
So that's strike two.
And then strike three, let me throw this one last thing at you, Glenn, because it's the craziest part of it all.
So they elect their president there.
It's more of a symbolic role, but still, it's like the mascot of Ireland, let's say, but with more gravity.
It's a closed loop, though.
Of incumbent members of parliament before you're allowed to run.
So there was this conservative woman who wanted to run named Maria Skeen.
She was not allowed on the ballot, but more than 200,000 Irish either spoiled their ballot or wrote her name in.
So those are three crazy examples of the entire Irish establishment being against the people.
And I think this fuel tax was just the straw that broke the camel's back, and the whole country at the same time said, enough.
So, I am really concerned.
You know, I'm going over with Tommy Robinson.
I'm going to be speaking at his rally in London.
They expect this to be the largest rally ever in England.
And I'm a little nervous about it, honestly, because I don't know exactly who is also going to be speaking, et cetera, et cetera.
And I know that they are going to blame anything on this group of people.
And so I just want to be really, really careful.
And I know Tommy is being very, very careful to make sure the right message is sent because.
The freedom of speech over in England and Great Britain is to say it's on the ropes is almost a comedic understatement.
Go ahead.
No, no, you're so right.
And I think that the U.S. administration has scolded the U.K. for its censorship.
But Ireland is even worse than the U.K. by some measures.
So Tommy's half Irish, but he really is, I think.
His home base is the UK, which is where you'll be speaking.
I didn't know you'll be speaking, and that's amazing.
Ireland is still in the European Union, and that means a whole bunch of crazy things, ranging from their obligation to take in mass immigration and asylum seekers to they're part of the European wide censorship program.
Ireland is at war with Elon Musk.
Because Ireland is part of the European Union, they get involved with Europe wide censorship, and Elon Musk is.
Public enemy number one.
And by the way, as you know, Elon Musk is now helping Tommy by covering his legal fees.
My point, Glenn, is that Europe, I mean, Ireland and the UK are sort of a race to be who can be the worst censor.
But the thing to remember is neither of them have the First Amendment.
Neither does Canada.
Neither does Australia and New Zealand with their censorship.
Glenn, if there's only one message I would have your listeners remember, it's do not give up that First Amendment.
It is the strategic freedom upon which all other freedoms are based.
What use is an election if you don't have free speech?
What use is freedom of association or freedom of assembly if you don't have the right to speak freely at those assemblies?
Never give up your First Amendment.
Never.
So, are you seeing, because I saw France, there are truckers now that are doing exactly the same thing that is Ireland.
Two questions.
You've alluded to it.
I just want a clear yes or no answer on this one.
This is tied now.
It's gasoline was the straw, but this is now about all of this stuff that Trump has been fighting against, all of this WEF nonsense.
Are you seeing this starting to spread?
Because it looked like it was happening now in France as well this weekend.
It hasn't spread on the scale of Ireland.
Ireland really is in general strike mode.
I asked every single person what's on your mind.
Almost everyone said fuel.
That's the straw that broke the camel's back.
But you cannot ignore those other things I mentioned of the political class just being out of touch.
Ireland, for some reason, is NGO central.
There are 50,000 people.
NGOs in a country of 5 million.
They're all government funded and they work to squelch these grassroots people.
There is also a class issue here.
I mean, I'm not a Marxist, but you can see the elite Dublin based globalists look down their nose at these farmers and truckers.
And it's sort of the deplorables.
They don't use the word the deplorables, but you can sense they feel it.
They would rather, and Kier Starmer, the British Prime Minister, said this.
He said he would, and he's the same, cut from the same cloth.
He said, He would rather be at Davos in the World Economic Forum than in his British Parliament.
And I think the Irish leaders are the same way.
They want to swan about with other EU leaders.
That's another reason to break up the EU, you need your politicians to listen to their own people.
That's part of sovereignty.
Don't run errands for foreign organizations.
I'm excited about Ireland because they have that rebellious spirit, just like Americans do, more than others.
Anyhow, sorry, I'm going on because it's very exciting.
Well, I mean, you know, the EU just last week or the week.
Before just passed in their own parliament a rejection of the open borders and started saying some of these people have to start now being deported and get out.
I mean, it was very Trumpian in a European standard, and it looks like there is a beginning of something.
So, is this how does this end, Ezra?
Is this just a quick fire that's put out, or does this spread, do you think?
Well, I sure hope it spreads.
Ireland is a pretty small place, just 5 million people.
And so I don't know if it's going to spread in France because there's the different language, the different democratic.
There's so many differences.
But if Ireland is able to stand up and shake off its globalist government, I think that'll at least be an inspiration to other countries.
Super quick comment about the other eastern side of Europe.
As you know, Viktor Orban of Hungary finally lost an election after 15 years.
And I was sort of depressed about that because he held the line on immigration.
Well, the good news, a white pill moment for the kids, would be that the man who won, he supports Orban's view on immigration.
So that wasn't.
He was part of the party.
That's right.
Yeah.
So I think that.
It was about corruption.
Exactly.
And, you know, 15 years, any government's going to get a little bit stale and a little bit too accustomed to power.
So I'm hopeful for Ireland.
They have a problem that a lot of the farmers told me.
It is almost completely Ireland.
There's only one small independent outlet called GRIPT, and they're wonderful, by the way.
If you're not following them, G R I P T dot I E. That's their internet suffix there.
They're a great little band of citizen journalists, but there's only like half a dozen of them.
Other than GRIPT, I don't, I mean, it's just their state broadcaster is so dominant and it's such a propaganda tool for the government.
They need independent journalists bad.
Okay, so what is the address again?
G R I P P T. G R I P T. G R I P T.
Yeah, G R I P T dot I E.
I know it's a little unusual.
That's the Irish version of dot com.
So G R I P T dot I E.
I love those guys.
And by the way, they come from a Christian point of view sometimes on issues like pro life and motherhood.
So I think they're right up your alley, Glenn.
I will look him up.
And I urge everybody to support Ezra, what he does.
He's rebelnews.com, rebelnews.com.
I want to have you back later this week because Canada has like literally gone insane.
Ezra, you know this, but boy, it is getting scary what's happening, how fast it's happening.
We'll have you on later this week if you have time.
I know you're going back to Ireland.
Rebelnews.com, rebelnews.com, actual news from Canada.
Ezra Levon.
Thank you, Ezra.
We'll talk again.
Most people think preparedness is just about what you buy ahead of time.
You get the kit, you put it somewhere safe, and you say, okay, I'm covered.
But let's be honest, that's really only half of it because when something actually happens, the question is, do I have this?
The question is, do I know what to do with it?

Now back to the podcast.
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
21 hour face to face talks in Islamabad collapsed yesterday.
JD Vance called it bad news for Iran.
Everybody else said, I don't know.
Looks like Donald Trump is going to get us out.
Oh, it's like, honestly, it's like the internet has rabies.
Stop it.
Stop it.
Remember last week, everybody was saying, Oh, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, he's just whipping out.
He's going to give in to all of it.
He's going to.
Be a whip, and we did this all for nothing.
Did you see why Iran walked away?
Because everybody who said he was a chicken hawk last week looks like you were proven wrong because we walked away because we said, no, you have to end all uranium enrichment, dismantle all major nuclear enrichment facilities, retrieve highly enriched uranium, accept a broader peace, security, and de escalation framework that includes your regional allies, and funding for terrorist proxies, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.
And fully open the Strait of Hormuz, charging no tolls for passage.
That was our red line.
I told you that last week.
Donald Trump told you that weeks and weeks and weeks ago.
But everybody online.
There's a really important reason I am starting with the rabid dogs, because it is why these talks fell apart yesterday.
I'll explain.
First, let me just continue on on the talks here.
Trump immediately announced the US Navy was going to enforce a full blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Now, what does that mean?
Because I thought we were here to say we've got to keep the Strait of Hormuz open.
Yeah.
Oh, gosh.
From a wolverfeet.
Think, people, think.
He's meaning he is going to make sure that it is open, but if you get any oil from Iran, you're not moving.
If you are paying a toll to Iran, you're not going anywhere.
But he will keep the Strait open for everybody else.
That's what he's talking about.
He's going to interdict any ships paying the illegal tolls.
He's clearing the mines.
He did that as soon as they sat down on the table.
He went in there and he started clearing the mines.
And he's going to prevent entry and exit for any ship that is headed towards Iran.
Two week ceasefire now on life support, especially with Israel still hammering Hezbollah and Lebanon.
But, you know, Iran is saying we don't control them.
Yeah, well, we can say we don't control Israel.
One of us is telling the truth, the other one's not.
This is exactly the leverage that Trump telegraphed.
He said it was coming.
Iran came ready to negotiate, but believed it held enough cards.
And when you look at it, you got to ask yourself what cards do they think they hold?
What cards do they hold?
Oh, I'll tell you here in a second.
But here's what we learned.
So far, Iran is not suicidal in the conventional sense.
Okay?
I told you these are 12ers.
They believe, you know, that.
Chaos and martyrdom will hasten the return of the promised one and end of the times, and blah blah blah.
They still believe all of that crap, okay?
However, it's not hard line, hard line.
What's happening here is they are looking at this and saying, that's real.
However, there's enough people at the table who are like, yeah, you can frame suffering as sacred destiny, but we'd rather not all die.
The delegation that showed up proves that they calculate survival.
There were enough people at the table.
They brought everybody they needed to bring.
This was not a joke.
Of a ceasefire or a peace hearing, okay?
But they weren't purely death cult.
They're a hybrid.
They're also not purely regime preservation and proxy leverage.
They're a hybrid.
So I'll show you here in a minute.
We have a guest who's done the math, and he'll show you the suffering that they will actually have.
The U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is going to cost Iran approximately $276 million a day in lost exports.
$159 million a day in imports.
That's a combined economic damage of $435 million a day or $13 billion a month.
90% of their annual trade comes through there.
So they are in trouble.
They're in real, real trouble.
So why?
Because collapse is coming.
Pain is insured.
What do they see that we don't?
You're not going to like the answer.
It's not missiles.
It's not that they have secret weapons.
What do they see that we don't?
They see us.
They see our domestic divisions more clearly than we do.
Social media has turned the fog of war into a superpower.
It really is.
Every oil price tweet, every anti war clip, every MAGA versus Neocon argument is amplified and it's heard all over the world.
They believe that Trump is transactional and he hates forever wars.
They believe that.
Other podcasters don't, but they do.
And they know that he might settle for a face saving deal if the pain, gas prices, stock market hits you.
They also know America is really tired of these wars.
We're polarized.
And sustained pressure could fracture U.S. support the way it did in Iraq and in Afghanistan.
They also see.
That global dependence on oil gives them asymmetric power.
Close to the strait, even partially, you close that and the world screams at Washington, not Tehran.
And they know that.
They also know China and Russia will backstop them weapons, diplomatic cover, oil purchases.
Or so they think.
Now, here's what they really see they believe their people will endure hardship under the martyrdom narrative longer than the Western public will tolerate high gas prices.
So, this isn't, they don't have any real power in a military sense because they're way overmatched.
They're done.
Their power comes in time.
They believe time and pain on our side will win the war for them.
That's what's really happening here.
Okay?
When you look at all of this, you have to realize it's us that they see.
It is us.
That's why it is so incredibly critical to make sure that we are, we can argue amongst ourselves.
But when you go online, that is global now.
That's all global.
Okay?
So, what do we do?
Well, we listen to the warning that the fog of war is now amplified.
TikTok, X, Instagram, everywhere.
MAGA voters, especially.
Don't let podcasters or party loyalty march you into a team war.
Don't.
Wait.
Just wait.
Process the facts.
The Iranian regime is a civilizational threat.
It is.
It's rooted in this Twelver eschatology that says the Antichrist, they think it's coming from us, we think it's coming from them.
The Antichrist is coming and they will hasten the return of all of that.
Okay?
So process the facts, know what they actually believe, and then stand up for us defending what is important to us without becoming the world's policeman.
We don't need to be the world's policeman.
I don't want to be the world's policeman.
I don't want to be in another war.
Okay, I don't.
But when you're playing big stakes, buck up, buck up.
And I want to show you the numbers here in just a few minutes because those numbers are staggering on what they're facing.
And then at the top of next hour, I want to show you a bigger picture.
I want you just to step back and go, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Let's stop thinking like podcasters.
Let's stop thinking like CNN.
Let's stop thinking today, today, today.
I hate to say this, but can we stop thinking like McDonald's Americans for a while?
Let's actually step back and look at the bigger picture because it's already beginning to happen.
There are some facts here I want to give you, and this came from.
Jesus Rojas.
He says hundreds of super tankers, the kind that carry 2 million barrels each, are currently racing toward, where do you think?
The U.S. Gulf Coast from every direction.
The Atlantic, Indian Ocean, around Africa.
Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz.
Everyone panicked.
Oil hit $126 a barrel.
Gas hits $4 a gallon.
Cable News does a thing where they put the red banner on the screen and they say crisis and everybody should start hoarding toilet paper.
And then something happened that nobody in the media seemed interested in reporting for obvious reasons.
The world, did it just switch suppliers?
Like changing your internet provider, except the internet provider is the entire global energy economy.
American oil exports are now approaching record levels.
Gulf Coast refineries are running at 95% capacity.
Supertankers that were mid ocean on their way to the Persian Gulf.
Literally turned around and headed towards Texas.
This is not a metaphor.
Ship tracking data shows them doing U turns in the Indian Ocean.
Meanwhile, in China, which is getting 45% of its oil imports through Hormuz and paying basement prices for sanctioned Iranian crude, is now competing with Japan and Europe for the same expensive American barrels.
Chinese manufacturers are already raising prices 20% on goods.
So to summarize, Iran has played its biggest card, and the main result is that the United States has become the world's emergency gas station, and China's cheap energy subsidy has evaporated.
Fang Files Drop Suddenly 00:02:57
Either that's the most elaborate coincidence in the history of the world, or something good is working for America and those who put America first.
You're streaming the best of the Glenbeck program, and you can find full episodes wherever you download podcasts.
Don't bang, bang.
To drop cuz he went bang bang with bang bang.
Hey, don't.
Allegedly I screams and shouts, but we all know he went bang bang with bang bang and apparently a few others scream collusion louder than anyone else.
While Fang Bang bundle checks with that sweet CC CP smile, placed it in turn close, stayed for a while on the Intel committee guarding secrets so tight, but his own honey trap was working overtime at night.
Now Cash wants the receipts, the text and the pics.
Eric's yelling nonsense while sweating like bracelet Drop and shouts.
But we all know he went bang bang with Fang Fang Ran for governor, acting holier than thou.
But that old Fang photo still floating around like by his friend on a consulate post Talking great potential while she played host Ethics probe, cleared FBI briefing.
I cooperated.
Yet the second the files might see the light.
He detonates poetic justice for the king of the Rajah Hunt Got played by Beijing while calling everyone up front.
He says it's Trump revenge, a death, Desperate attack, but bro, you were the one who let her get that close on your back.
Now the whole world's laughing at the Smallwell special.
Rush a bat.
Files to drop, cause he went bang bang Gwen.
Katie Porter Monster Accusations 00:10:47
That's right.
From Torch Tunes.
With one hand tied behind my back and half my mind lost from drugs long ago.
I don't even know.
It's Don't Bang Bang with Fang Fang, which those are all, it's all alleged.
I mean, we'd have no idea.
You know what?
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
If it wasn't for the great work from these, well, I would call them detectives, but they're just real detectives.
Died in the wool reporters, these journalists who have taken every stone and turned it over and said, What is crawling underneath here?
And they found out, thank God, just in time that Eric Swalwell is a dirtbag.
And allegedly, he has been a dirtbag with a lot of people for a very, long time.
In fact, it's weird that more than 50 former staffers.
More than 50 former staffers have claimed shocking sexual assault allegations against Eric's Walwell.
And now the media says that they are credible and serious.
50.
How did you keep that a secret?
Answer: it wasn't a secret.
Everybody knew.
Absolutely everybody knew.
The left knew, the press knew, but he was useful.
He was useful.
He could help them accomplish other goals.
And the minute he became not so useful, in fact, he was standing in the way, as soon as he became number three in the California polls, where number one and number two are two Republicans and then Eric's Walwell, they knew he can't win.
We got to get him out of there.
So immediately, oh, wait a minute, we should start listening and believing these women.
And now, here is the absolute I mean, look, the Lord does not make mistakes.
But I do believe once in a while he might look at this guy at CNN and go, you know, maybe, I don't, maybe, listen to this.
Yeah, do you have it, Sarah or Jason?
You were just playing it?
Brian Stelter?
Here it is.
Yeah, play it, please.
Yes, dramatic end of the weekend news in California and a real testament to the power of investigative reporting.
Eric Svalwell ending his campaign for California governor just about 48 hours after CNN and the San Francisco Chronicle both reported on allegations of sexual misconduct in his past.
Oh, my gosh.
Wow.
In his past.
And did it happen recently?
No, no.
It's been happening forever.
This is the only reason.
This is the only reason.
This is a coordinated hit.
That's what this is.
No sympathy for Eric Swalwell.
He should have been taken out a long time ago.
The truth was just hidden because the truth in media has an agenda.
And if you are on the side of furthering that agenda, you're fine.
You can be a monster.
What's the guy's name that's running for the Senate who has the SS tattoo on his chest?
You can be a monster and they'll excuse you.
As long as you're furthering their agenda and they need you.
The minute they don't need you, you're toast.
And Eric, he just thinks he could stand up.
You know, what was it, Friday?
He's like, I'm not going anywhere.
I'll tell you that right now.
Really?
Really?
They will destroy you.
They'll destroy your family.
They'll destroy everything.
And even what's so crazy about this, Eric, is this stuff is true about you.
It's most likely, absolutely true.
True about you.
Now, let's see it proven in a court of law.
But most likely, the stuff they say about other people is not true.
And they will use it to destroy.
So they think that if they have stuff that is true, they have 50 staffers.
50.
How did you, none of these women, none of them wanted to come out and say anything?
Come on.
50 women.
No, here's what happened.
Somebody was like, hey, you know, he just sexually assaulted me.
I know, stand in line.
Well, we should say something.
No, no, I want you to talk to so and so.
And then so and so from the DNC or whoever steps in and is like, look, look, look, just make this with us that we understand this is really bad, but we really need him right now.
You don't want to be hurting the party.
You don't want to hurt them.
We're up against a Nazi right now.
We're up against Donald Trump.
And, you know, if you don't want to play along, if you play along, there's all kinds of possibilities for you.
If you don't play along, I mean, nobody's going to believe you.
Who's going to believe you because they're not coming out?
Well, who's going to come out and say anything?
And that is exactly what has happened.
It's exactly what has happened.
I bet, I can't tell you for sure, I would bet that's exactly what happened.
You can't keep 50 women quiet on this.
Not one wanted to come out.
Of course not.
They see what happens to women who stand up against progressives who are in favor.
You're toast.
You're a slut.
You're a whore.
You're whatever.
You're a liar.
Your life is destroyed.
But now, now that he has to be destroyed, oh, they'll believe you.
We have to believe women.
Am I wrong on any of this?
Ricky, Jason, disagree with any of this?
I'll tell you, Glenn, I have not heard journalisming done this hardcore since Jake Tapper broke that amazing book that it was, you know, the rumor is Joe Biden wasn't fully cognitively there.
I mean, journalism is on a roll.
This is crazy.
Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, this is journalism to them.
It was funny that I think it was on Friday.
All of a sudden, and all of this really started coming out once Swalwell was really digging his heels in and saying, I'm not going anywhere.
I'm still running.
All of a sudden, you get a Politico report talking about how multiple people were starting to back out of Eric Swalwell's campaign.
Then, like clockwork, not too long after that, There was a message from the California Teachers Association, which I'm sure are a very conservative group, like the most conservative of all groups.
Oh, yeah.
The California Teachers Association said the allegations are incredibly disturbing and unacceptable, immediately suspending their report.
Then, like clockwork, CNN also, four women described sexual misconduct by Eric Schwalwell, including a former staffer who says he raped her.
But none of this was ever, you know, even on the radar of being reported.
It was all just kind of getting, I guess, saved.
Yeah, let me ask you this.
Listen to the story.
One of the women, former staffer, claimed he raped her when she was drunk and left her bruised and bleeding during an alleged 2024 attack in New York.
The Manhattan DA has now launched an investigation.
Another woman alleged she also awoke next to him in a hotel room after a drunken night out, adding he allegedly kissed her and touched her without consent, touched her leg without consent.
How do you get to a rape accusation if 50 women have been saying sexual assault, sexual inappropriate behavior?
50 women have said that.
That's because you said nothing, and this guy starts to think, I can get away with anything.
Once you say your politics are more important than our principles, you train him, I am invincible.
Don't you know who I am?
Don't you know I could rape you, and no one's going to listen?
That's the monster, that's the monster the left creates every single time.
That's the monster that is created when you don't have equal justice under the law.
And I'd be saying this if it was a Republican.
If it was a Republican that was doing this, I'd be saying exactly the same thing.
You must tell people immediately and prosecute these people because you will create monsters.
It's the only reason you can't have 50 allegations and then expect him not to rape.
Of course, he thinks he can get away with anything because nobody's going to say anything.
This machine will keep you quiet.
What's amazing is he thought he could keep going up the ladder.
And then when they said, hey, you're actually hurting us in California, that he thought he could betray them.
Like he didn't know.
That's how arrogant and how monstrous his ego has gotten.
He's so out of control that he thought it was him and not the system.
That was keeping him propped up.
It's nuts.
Yeah.
And I will.
Suspiciously quiet, Ricky.
Well, you know, I'm just over here by myself in Florida.
I was just going to say he sounds like a monster, but I'm a little bit worried about the next gal who's waiting in the wings in the Democrat primary in California, Katie Porter.
She has allegedly poured boiling hot water on her husband's head, and we've seen her yell at her staffers.
Like, what kind of people is this party producing?
Our next best hope in California is Tom Steyer, who's destroyed that state with all the environmental regulations.
We need to have Steve Hilton.
He is a leading frontrunner in the primary for the GOP for California governor.
We need to have him.
Is there a chance?
I mean, I don't know.
I mean, they'll accept anything.
Yeah, with Swalwell dropping out, this actually gives Democrats a better chance.
I don't know how much time we have before the break, but there is breaking news that President Trump has deleted the Jesus post.
So this is probably because you texted him.
I'm sure that's why that happened.
Probably what it was.
That's good.
