## Resource

Out of all the stories to discuss today, Glenn starts the show by talking about … time travel? Glenn explains that what you interpret as “gut feelings” or intuition might actually be subtle nudges from God to warn you about something that is coming. Glenn speaks to one of his writers and producers, Mikayla G. Hedrick, who joins to discuss the potential threat posed by the latest virus — hantavirus, which is spread between rats, but one strain appears to have made the jump to humans. Could this virus become the next global pandemic? Glenn speaks with Daily Wire senior investigative reporter Luke Rosiak to discuss what might be one of the biggest Medicaid scandals ever found. Glenn lays out how legal immigration should work for America and how the Left has twisted it for its own gain. Glenn acknowledges the divide between people on different political aisles and reveals what it will take to fix it. Glenn speaks on the dangers of being overwhelmed, working hard to keep things out of your control from happening, and how to end the vicious cycle. A new report by Christopher Rufo showed that a California CAIR leader allegedly advised followers to hide their anti-Zionist beliefs, which Glenn and his team warned about in Glenn’s "Islamist Takeover" special.
