Hey, welcome to the Best of Podcast. We started the show right away with Harmeet Dhillon because she is, she's with the DOJ. She's the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. She's in charge of the Civil Rights Division. And she's ruthless. And she's spent a lot of time as an attorney for years watching over elections. And she was appointed by Trump in 2024 in the GOP to make sure that we had monitors. And I think that's one of the reasons why we can trust this election so much. Well, she announced yesterday a couple of things. A letter went out from the DOJ saying, when you screw with these elections, we will find you in a beautiful prison. I don't know if that explains that.
But also they're sending people out to start going over things in Michigan.
Also, updates with Iran. What the president said about, you know, these people are crazy. What is he actually looking for? And I got into, it's only people on this, that listen to the show would understand. I told history to solve today's problem. And I started with Hitler and the ring cycle from Wagner, which is of course where everybody started. It's a fascinating look at what he's really looking for. I think we're looking for an Albert Speer. And if you don't know who Albert Speer is, he was a famous Nazi. Well, just ask Graham Platner, he knows who he is. We also get into Graham Platner. And I think this is going to actually make him stronger. He's not going to withdraw.
And why is that? Because the Democrats have become everything they despise. I explain all on today's podcast.

You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

**Glenn Beck** (2:44)
Welcome to the program, Harmeet Dhillon. How are you, Harmeet?

**Harmeet Dhillon** (2:47)
I'm great, always happy to be with you.

**Glenn Beck** (2:50)
So this is not popular in Michigan. Can you tell us what you're planning on doing, what the DOJ is doing now and why?

**Harmeet Dhillon** (3:01)
Well, I'm gonna push back a little bit. It's actually really popular with a lot of people in Michigan, including many legislators who actually reached out and specifically asked us to do this because Michigan, like some other battleground states, has been rife with the regularities in recent election cycles. Both Republicans and Democrats have sent election monitors in the past to all these battleground states. And so some of the issues that we're gonna look for in four jurisdictions where we're sending these election monitors, Detroit, East Lansing, Lansing and Hamtrak include, may have mispronounced that last one, include language issues.
There's been no assessment by the DOJ in two of these jurisdictions that have high Hispanic populations as to whether they're complying with federal law relating to ballot access. There have been extremely long lines in the recent election in one of these jurisdictions that has a university on the campus in Detroit, I believe.
And there's an admitted glitch in the poll book loading in the other ones. So these are all based on actual irregularities that we've seen in prior elections. Now when you look at how the Biden administration handled some of these hotspots, and I'm just talking about the primary, not the general. We're going to have a way expanded program in the general election. In prior election cycles in 2022, the person sitting in this chair in the Biden DOJ sent nine election monitors in 2022 and sent 27 in 2024 So this is not unusual. This is something DOJ does regularly. People are just upset that Republicans are taking the integrity of our elections seriously at the DOJ level for a change. That is new, and they better get used to it.

**Glenn Beck** (4:46)
Good.
The news broke overnight that DOJ is sending letters warning election officials, I'm quoting, in all 50 states in the District of Columbia, they will face criminal prosecution over non-citizen voting. The letter signed by Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon gives states five days to explain how they will comply with federal voter eligibility laws and how they will maintain clean voter lists. Non-citizen voting in federal elections is extremely rare, but Trump and his administration have falsely portrayed it as a widespread issue.
