Ep 264 | Is Cloud Seeding Playing God? Trump EPA Chief Reacts | Lee Zeldin | The Glenn Beck Podcast
What does the struggle against the deep state look like from inside one of the Left’s most cherished agencies? Glenn Beck asks the Left’s biggest nightmare — EPA chief Lee Zeldin. He’s fought in Iraq and in Congress, and now he’s taking a sledgehammer to entrenched special interests and even his own agency’s rebellion. He pulls back the curtain to reveal the truth about geoengineering and contrails; Obama and Biden’s green energy scams; and extreme taxpayer waste. From dismantling the 2009 Endangerment Finding to restoring auto jobs, nuclear, and coal, Zeldin reveals how Trump’s EPA is putting American energy dominance first.

Is FBI Raid on John Bolton Political Payback? | 8/22/25
Kash Patel's FBI initiated a raid on the home of former National Security Adviser John Bolton for the alleged possession of classified documents. Glenn and Stu discuss the raid and the issue of the government classifying too many documents, while also advocating for government officials who take classified documents to be held accountable.

Pritzker (D) have used to describe Trump. Glenn reads the list of the woke terms Democrats are now being instructed to stay away from — the same terms they invented. A call from a listener inspired Glenn to discuss the struggles faced by the current generation as the economy continues to worsen.
