Podcast Summary: The Glenn Beck Program Episode: New Documents PROVE FBI Ran Cover for Clintons | Guests: Sec. Chris Wright & Peter Schweizer | Release Date: August 14, 2025

1. Power Grid Crisis and Energy Policies Timestamp: 02:53 - 18:39

Glenn Beck opens the episode by addressing the escalating power grid crisis in the United States, particularly highlighting the sharp increase in electricity prices and the onset of rolling blackouts in Maryland. He references a recent Goldman analysts report which warns that 9 out of 13 U.S. regional power markets have reached critical tightness, anticipating all regions to hit this threshold by 2030. The report underscores the risks of power reliability, especially during upcoming heatwaves, which could lead to significant social and economic losses due to price spikes and blackouts.

Guest: Chris Wright, U.S. Energy Secretary

Key Discussions:

• Impact of Previous Administration's Policies: Chris Wright criticizes the Biden administration's energy policies, claiming they led to the shutdown of 100 gigawatts of firm production capacity while only adding 22 gigawatts, resulting in a net loss of 78 gigawatts to an already strained electricity grid.

  Glenn Beck (07:46): "We would actually pay the power companies to shut these down if they dismantled the coal-fired plants... it's as if the left and the power structures don't really care about the average person."

  Chris Wright (08:11): "Environmentalists melted down when I stopped the closure of a 1.5 gigawatt coal plant in Michigan. Two days later, a blackout occurred, and the plant had to run at full capacity."

• Reopening and Building Power Plants: Wright emphasizes efforts to reopen old nuclear and coal plants and rapidly construct new natural gas-burning power plants, which he identifies as the lowest cost source of new electricity.

  Chris Wright (12:07): "We're permitting and approving new gas plants to provide relief to Americans in the next 12 to 24 months."

• Regional Stability and Future Projections: Texas is identified as the most stable region due to its large electricity grid and ongoing efforts to expand firm capacity, contrasting it with regions like the Midwest, Southeast, and mid-Atlantic facing tighter markets.

  Chris Wright (17:03): "Texas produces more than twice as much electricity as California and is rapidly growing its firm capacity to skate out of this crisis faster."

2. FBI Investigation and Allegations of Cover-Up for the Clintons Timestamp: 25:04 - 38:48

Glenn Beck transitions to a critical discussion about new FBI documents revealing political interference in the Clinton corruption probe, bringing in Peter Schweizer, author of "Clinton Cash", as a guest.

Guest: Peter Schweizer, Author of "Clinton Cash"

Key Discussions:

• New FBI Timeline Insights: Schweizer explains that the FBI had been actively investigating Clinton-related corruption since 2015, including the infamous Uranium One deal and various international transactions involving Nigeria and Haiti.

  Peter Schweizer (26:16): "The investigation began with Uranium One but included contracting with the State Department on Haitian reconstruction, Nigerian deals, and an Indian component. Despite subpoena power, the Department of Justice thwarted these efforts."

• Deep State Interference: He accuses FBI headquarters and Department of Justice officials like Sally Yates of deliberately shutting down investigations to protect the Clintons, highlighting a "revolving door" of government officials who move between public service and private gain.

  Peter Schweizer (28:16): "FBI headquarters said, 'shut this down,' which is highly unusual and indicates deep state problems."

• Potential Legal Consequences: Schweizer discusses the challenges of prosecuting financial crimes related to the Clintons, citing issues like the statute of limitations but expressing optimism about ongoing investigations into COIVD-related matters.

  Peter Schweizer (35:25): "Hillary Clinton will probably have to show up, and we might get more testimony on these issues."

• Parallel to Current Administration: He draws a comparison between the Clintons' alleged corruption and the Bidens, suggesting that Joe Biden has learned from past precedents and is engaging in similar misconduct.

  Peter Schweizer (37:01): "Hunter Biden's investment firm went to Russia, Ukraine, and China, mirroring the Clintons' global corruption tactics."

Notable Quotes:

• Glenn Beck (26:10): "The deep state is really becoming clear right now."
• Peter Schweizer (34:13): "This is why Republicans and Democrats are involved in the deep state."

3. The Impact of AI on Human Connection Timestamp: 18:03 - 125:56

In a more introspective segment, Glenn Beck delves into the societal implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) replacing human interactions. He shares personal anecdotes and philosophical reflections on the erosion of human connection, emphasizing the dangers of relying on AI for companionship.

Key Points:

• Personal Reflection: Beck recounts the story of Jill Smolya, a 75-year-old retiree who has substituted human companionship with an AI, highlighting the potential loss of meaningful human relationships.

  Glenn Beck (43:30): "We can't allow... we're losing our humanity. That's what we're gonna lose, our humanity."

• Societal Concerns: He discusses how AI can create superficial connections that lack the depth and emotional complexity of human relationships, potentially exacerbating loneliness and reducing genuine interpersonal interactions.

  Glenn Beck (50:19): "We are all experts at almost connected... We're all experts at almost connected."

• Call to Action: Beck urges listeners to prioritize human interactions over AI conveniences, advocating for intentional presence and meaningful conversations to preserve humanity.

  Glenn Beck (52:33): "Let’s find ways in our own life. Reminds us that just time, listening, being present remakes us faster than AI ever will."

4. Additional Discussions and Concluding Thoughts Timestamp: 38:48 - End

The latter part of the episode features Glenn Beck engaging in lighter conversations, including discussions about movies like F1 and Naked Gun, as well as addressing various listener comments and interactions with co-host Stu Burguiere. While these segments are more casual and less content-heavy, they provide insight into Beck's personal interests and rapport with his co-host.

Notable Moments:

• Discussion on Media and Deep State: Beck and guests continue to emphasize the significance of the deep state reveal, expressing skepticism about widespread media coverage and public awareness.

  Glenn Beck (97:06): "What's the group that's in Washington, D.C. that are standing up, crying fascism?... They were very well organized."

• Legislative Concerns: There's a brief mention of the Smith-Mundt Act and its repeal, critiquing government propaganda efforts directed at American citizens.

  Glenn Beck (125:00): "They just repealed that so the government could give propaganda to the news reporters and the news reporters could repeat it."
