Do you remember back in the 1990s when Jay Leno was hosting The Tonight Show on NBC and he would sometimes do these “Jaywalking” (get it?) segments where he’d go out on the street and ask people seemingly easy questions and they couldn’t ever get the right answers? It was hilarious. And I know Jesse Watters remembers because he is picking up that mantle and doing his own version now some 25 years later, sending his producer Johnny out on the street to ask some hilarious questions to people on the street. Credit to these people for all having good attitudes and playing along and not getting mad, but this is absolutely hilarious! Watch here: What’s heavier 1lb of bricks or 1lb of feathers?

Glenn Beck just made the case for NOT jailing the Clintons over Epstein and their ignoring of a Congressional subpoena. That sounds crazy at first but actually I think Glenn is 100% right and I want to show you why. Republicans are making the same mistakes over and over again and they’re about to do it again with the Clintons. Instead of going after the Clintons for any number of scandals where the evidence seems open and shut like Haiti or the Clinton Foundation or Crossfire Hurricane or anything else where it seems like evidence clearly exists, Republicans are going after the one topic that gets a lot of headlines but all the evidence has almost certainly been destroyed: Epstein. It might feel good to haul Bill into Congress and ask about the Epstein flights, but there’s nothing to actually DO with that. Bill’s not going to admit to diddling young girls on the Epstein plane. It will once again be a big nothing burger! So I think Glenn is 100% right here. Watch here: FULL TRANSCRIPT: Yesterday, I am looking at the news and I see, you know, yesterday I talked to you about the Clinton letter that they sent out. And I was outraged by that because I cannot, I just can’t handle the hypocrisy. I can’t, I can’t. Really? Really? You know, the DOJ’s been weaponized. Russia, Russia, Russia? Excuse me? I mean, the Clintons are the ones who have built this entire thing. I contend if we wouldn’t have had Bill Clinton, we wouldn’t have a lot of these problems. I mean, remember, it was the Clintons that brought Cloward and Piven in, for one. She is a true believer in Saul Alinsky and all of this stuff. They’re also both very, very greedy and power-hungry, and they built the Clinton Initiative. You know, remember, it was Al Gore that was doing the stuff with the Chinese, I think. Or was it the Clintons that were doing the money laundering stuff with the Chinese? I can’t remember, it’s been so long ago and so many scandals ago that nobody paid for that, I tend to forget. But you have Clinton in office, they get away with scandal after scandal, and the world learns something. All politicians learn something: “I can get away with it if I know how to play it right.” And so they did, and they got away with it, and then, you know, they brought us the Clinton Foundation. They brought us all kinds of scandals, sold all of our uranium to Russia with Uranium One, and that was totally—I mean, you have to be a second-grader to believe that that was on the up and up. And that’s just going through the stuff that we can find, not the stuff that the DOJ could find. And then we now have all of these scandals, all of these NGOs making all kinds of money on your tax dollars, funding the destruction of America as we know it. We’re all in bed with giant corporations and the WEF. The Clinton Foundation is all lined up in it. These guys are the arsonists, and Congress is about to hand the arsonists the matches. And let me explain. I told you a few days ago what is happening in Minnesota is the last act of a very desperate group of people. They know they’re in trouble. You gotta do something. I mean, honestly, the better thing to do, if you cared about your state, the better thing to do than burn it down would be for you to get on an airplane and leave the country in the middle of the night to go to some country that won’t turn you in to the United States when we ask. But don’t worry, we’ll never ask, because we have Pam Bondi at the DOJ. So we’ll never ask for you to come back and stand trial. But that’s what people like Tim Walz and dictators would do if they had any self-respect. They just don’t burn the whole place down. These guys, they want to burn the whole place down. They’ve wanted to burn the whole place down for a very long time. It fits their plan. Remember, the idea is the WEF, the World Economic Forum—their idea is build this infrastructure, build this new system, have it all ready to go, and then when it topples, or when it doesn’t topple and we just need it to, it’s time. The system is ready, we just burn it down and it falls into this new system and we’re all safe. Okay? And anybody who is anybody gets away with everything, and you’re the one that has the money in the end. And it’s rule by the elites. That’s the Great Reset in a nutshell. Well, they’re now backed into a corner, and they are still trying to win. So what do they need to do? They need to set the streets on fire. They need absolute chaos. And the reason why they need absolute chaos is because that forces this administration, or any administration—this has happened over and over again in history. Look it up. Look it up. This is the way it happens. We’re at the end game here. And what happens every time is the arsonists look and point the fingers at the firefighters and say, “Look at the pattern. They’re always at the scene of the crime.” And you’re like, “They’re the firefighters.” But they get enough people to go, “Yeah, you’re right, the firefighters are always at the scene of the crime. I think they’re the arsonists.” And all you need to do is divide and argue and you get away with it. That’s exactly what’s happening in Minnesota. We are talking about probably the biggest heist of taxpayer money in a state ever. Ever. It’s everywhere. It’s in the banking system. It is all throughout the state government. I mean, at every level. It is obviously at the airport in the TSA in Minneapolis. I mean, who’s not involved in this? Except for the people who are now in the street because they’ve just become zombified. “No, Tim Walz is good.” “No, everybody is fine.” “These Somalis are all good.” Well, you want to talk about racist, you’re saying all the Somalis are good even though you have evidence that some of them have been stealing money. And by the way, I don’t want to blame it on the Somalis. The Somalis are the last ones that I care about, honestly, in this, because I want to know who in the banking system and who in the government were doing this. If you don’t clean that up, forget the Somalis. They’ll just be replaced by somebody else, because all that the state was doing was just buying votes. So it’s not them, it’ll be somebody else. But what are they doing? They’re setting the world on fire. They’re setting that whole thing on fire because they are pointing to the DOJ, they’re pointing to ICE, who is going in and rounding really bad people up, pointing to them and saying, “They’re the arsonists.” And the language has changed. For the first time, we have a governor actually talking about civil war. “You want a civil war? We’ll fight a civil war. I’m already getting the National Guard together and telling them, and they’re training for what’s going on with our feds coming in.” You can’t do that. That’s absolutely against the Constitution. You can’t do that. You’d be arrested the minute you do that. He’s not going to do that. He just needs you to be the army. So I’ve been talking to you about Minnesota for the last few days. Let me get back to the Clintons. So now, what’s happening with the Clintons? The Clintons are being brought in to just answer questions about Epstein. Can I ask you a question? Does anyone think we’re going to get to real answers on Epstein? Just be honest. Would you like to? That’s a different question. Are we going to find out what really happened? I don’t think so. Ever. Why? Because all of the evidence has been in the hands of the Republicans and the Democrats over and over and over again for years. Anybody who had any power or any clout—that’s all been destroyed. It’s all gone. So what are we left with? “You know, Bill Clinton’s name was on that plane.” Now, this is me personally, and this has nothing to do with facts, but Epstein was really good at moving money around. Really good. Well, who else is really good at moving money around? Who’s really good at having these shell operations running all over the world? “We’re still raising money for Haiti. Haiti’s going to be rebuilt real soon.” Really? Have you been to Haiti? Ask the people of Haiti how they feel about the Clinton Initiative. Where’s the money? Who else is good at that? Epstein and Clinton. They’re very good at that kind of stuff. These are very bad people, and we all know that. And even Democrats know that. They’re very bad people. Okay? But they have spooked everybody because they’re so good at being very bad people. Even the people in the press who used to be for them are now just so scared of them. They won’t say anything, but they want to. Oh, they want to take down the Clintons. But they won’t, because they’re terrified of them. You don’t try to kill the king unless you can kill the king. You don’t try to take out the Clintons and wound them because they’ll kill you. And I don’t mean that literally—or do I? You gotta take them out, and you better come prepared with the goods. And nobody does. Nobody ever does. Well, the goods are there. We have it all. Yet Congress is going after the Clintons on something they don’t have the goods on. They don’t have it. If they had it, they would say something. You don’t call the Clintons in on this and say, “Hey, so you were on that airplane. What were you doing?” What do you think Bill Clinton’s gonna say? “Okay, you got me on the airplane. All right, I was diddling with underage people.” No. He’s not gonna say that. You better have the goods, and they don’t. So they’re calling him in for a conversation, they’re subpoenaing him, and they’re saying, “You two have to come and talk to Congress.” Over this? Okay, makes me feel good. I would love to see them in a perp walk. I would love to see what happened to Peter Navarro and what happened to Bannon happen to them. Love it. Can’t wait for that to happen someday. Okay, so here’s—let me just—this is gonna piss you off. The Clintons should not be arrested or jailed for contempt of Congress over Epstein. There, I said it. Remember, they are the arsonists; you don’t want to hand them matches. And it’s not because they’re above the law or untouchable, but because this specific path leads to nowhere good. You don’t have anything on them. And they will use it for all that it is worth. And remember, you’re in an endgame here, gang. You’ve got to be very careful. Yesterday, I spent a lot of time just looking at revolutions. This is what happens at the very end of—you know, the very beginning of a revolution, the end of the setup to the revolution. You get the arsonists and all of a sudden, the firemen go, “Wait a minute, it’s you.” And they have built such a system of power, they can divide and conquer. It doesn’t necessarily work out to their favor; it just sets the whole country on fire and you’re done. And this is what’s happening in Minnesota. You don’t want another fire started by the guys who built the system. There’s no smoking gun with Epstein. There are only associations. There’s no photographs. There’s nothing. If you don’t have evidence, jailing them is going to only look like politics, not justice. Because you can’t make the case. And by the way, why is—we’re talking about Epstein—why the hell isn’t the DOJ doing this? If you have something, why isn’t the DOJ doing it? You want to really make it look like politics? Let the Republicans in Congress do it. Are you out of your mind? The DOJ should be doing this, and it should go through the court system. But you know why it won’t go through the court system? Because anything that happens in Washington, DC goes through the District of Columbia court system. And you know how those people who are the judges are gonna vote. You can’t get a fair trial if you are a Republican, and you can’t get a guilty verdict if you’re a Democrat. But you could fix that by actually going after the judges that you know are just completely so bought and paid for. Oh, no, they tried to do that yesterday, but the Republicans failed to go further. The Republicans were like, “No, we don’t wanna go into that. We don’t wanna do that.” Are you out of your mind? You Republicans are just so worthless. You’re worthless, spineless worms. You are. In fact, I think a worm has a stronger spine than you do. You have to have a case. There are lots of cases to build about the Clintons. Epstein might make you feel good. You might think the American people are gonna go, “Oh, well, see, they’re going after the Clintons, so they really care about the Epstein case.” They know you don’t care. They know—your supporters. What do you think the enemies of the Republicans think? Your supporters know you’re spineless weasels, that if you had something, if you would have done something earlier, if you actually cared, maybe we would have a case. But we don’t have a case, because nobody did anything. Nobody said anything when you actually had the evidence. But now it’s gone. The evidence has gone through so many hands. Do you trust any of it? Do you have anything? “Pam Bondi, we’ve got something that’s gonna blow your mind. I’ve got it sitting on my desk.” Next day: “I don’t have anything. Who said that? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Oh, you know what it is? It’s the FBI in New York City. They’re holding the evidence from us, and I can’t get it from my own people in New York City.” Really? Why don’t you go and get it, Pam? “Who said that they were holding that back from me in New York City? I don’t know who said that.” How do you expect—by the way, this is me not unleashed yet on Pam Bondi. We are five days away from the fundamental transformation of my treatment of Pam Bondi. Join us for that show. It’ll be January 20th. A year into Donald Trump’s administration. I said I’d give them a year. Congress, whatever you do, do not arrest the Clintons. Do they deserve it? Yes. Should they play just as equally as everyone else? Yes. But you’re walking into a trap. I know you’re spineless. Are you brainless as well? Backup here if needed: Well said Glenn, you are 100% right! GO FOR THE REAL STUFF!

Canadian courts vacate convictions against a faithful pastor targeted for defying COVID worship bans, exposing government overreach that spared secular spots but crushed church services. Pastor Koopman’s Defiance Amid Lockdown Bans Rev. John Koopman of Chilliwack Free Reformed Church in British Columbia held in-person worship services from 2020 to 2021 despite Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry’s orders banning them. The church complied with masking and distancing but prioritized religious duty over total shutdowns. Health authorities ignored the church’s accommodation request for weeks, while synagogues received swift approvals. This selective enforcement fueled charges exceeding 20, targeting faithful Christians who refused to abandon their God-given right to worship. Court Vacates Convictions on Technical Grounds In early 2026, reported January 8, a Canadian court vacated two of Koopman’s COVID-related convictions. Crown prosecutors acknowledged errors in court records, leading to the overturn without reviewing the bans’ constitutionality. This relieved $460 in fines from convictions, including one from February 2025. Koopman urged government review of “many errors” in worship restrictions. The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms hailed it as a step forward but noted core issues of religious discrimination remain unaddressed. Pattern of Persecution Against Canadian Pastors Koopman’s case fits a broader assault on religious liberty during COVID lockdowns. In Alberta, Pastor Artur Pawlowski faced multiple arrests, 51 days in jail for a Coutts blockade sermon, and a 2023 mischief conviction later mitigated by time served. Pastor Tim Stephens saw charges dropped in August 2023 after repeated defiance. Other pastors endured jail time before releases. These incidents reveal government preference for secular venues over churches, eroding Charter-protected freedoms in ways that alarm defenders of faith and family. Provincial powers wielded fines up to $40,000, yet courts exposed prosecutorial weaknesses through concessions. JCCF’s legal challenges underscore motivations rooted in protecting worship as essential, not optional. Health officials like Henry justified bans for virus control, but unequal accommodations bred justified outrage among conservative communities valuing individual liberty over state mandates. Implications for Religious Freedom and Government Overreach Short-term, the vacating sets precedent for technical challenges, offering potential relief in remaining Koopman cases and similar disputes. Long-term, it spotlights enforcement flaws without endorsing full defiance or policy reversals. Religious communities see partial vindication, bolstering narratives of anti-Christian bias. Politically, it amplifies criticism of COVID-era overreach, echoing unfulfilled amnesty promises in Alberta. As President Trump restores American sovereignty in 2026, this Canadian saga warns against globalist-style intrusions on core values like faith and family. Socially, it strengthens resolve among patriots frustrated by past leftist policies that prioritized control over freedoms. Economic impacts stay minor, but the fight influences broader reviews of pandemic prosecutions. Pro-defiance voices see systemic errors; enforcement supporters cling to health order merits, though technical losses undermine them.
