Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
There's a lot going on today.
And we begin with the truth about what is really happening in our society.
The Nazis and Antifa, they are a symptom.
They are a symptom.
They are not the cause.
what is the cause, what is happening?
If you want somebody who is going to rah-rah the president
or tear the president apart,
you're on the wrong show.
I'm going to tell you what I truly believe is happening.
The only side I'm going to pick
is the side of sanity.
I will not go over the cliff with the rest of humanity.
and make no mistake.
If you're watching television and you're watching the right or the left,
the right is driven right now by their hatred of the press.
The left is driven right now by their hatred of Donald Trump.
Is there anyone that will stand for the love of country and country?
countrymen. We begin there right now.
And enlightenment, this is the Glen.
Hello, America. I want to start by asking you if you're somebody that needs blood,
if you're somebody that needs to be angry, if you're somebody that needs to rub the nose of
whomever, in whatever,
this is not the show for you.
If you're tired of all of this,
if you think we're better than this,
if you think we have to solve this problem,
then this is the show for you.
But the way we're going,
the world has gone before.
The way we're going will end with either
the communists
rounding up and
slaughtering those who disagree with them
or the Nazis
rounding people up that
disagree with them and slaughtering them.
I'm sorry
but I don't have a thing in
common with these Nazis
and the white supremacists.
None of it. None of them.
My gosh, I've
gotten in trouble on both
the right and the left for talking
about the evils of Nazis
for the last 15 or 20 years.
I want nothing to do with them.
And I also want nothing to do with the radical anarchist communists
who show up in black masks with baseball bats
and burn our cities down.
I want nothing to do with people who are saying,
our heritage is our white heritage.
And I want nothing to do with people
who are saying, our heritage is our black heritage. It's not.
We are humans. All of us, each of us. I can't take the left and I can't take the right.
I can't watch either side of the media anymore. Does anybody really care about our country anymore?
Please don't give me lip service.
I about caused a panic in my own church when I started teaching the 15-year-olds.
And I started asking them about, you know, tell me what you know about the Bible.
And tell me that you know that Jesus is, you know, the Savior.
And how many people here, you know, firmly believe in the Bible.
And they all dutifully raise their hand.
and I said,
shut up.
Put your hands down.
No, you don't.
How do you know that?
How do you know that?
If you can tell me a story about how you searched and searched and how you prayed,
right now, you know it because somebody else has told you it's true.
So how many people care about our country?
Everybody's going to raise their hand.
Really?
So what is the tough thing that you have done?
What's the thing that you have stood up against that made you a pariah in your own circle?
Because I got news for you.
It's not the left's fault and it's not the right fault.
It's all of our faults.
All of us.
We're all playing the same game.
And if you're not man enough or brave enough to admit that,
then I invite you to stay with us.
but as you say in
AA meetings when somebody comes
and they have fallen off the wagon
and they're still drinking
you know what
is this probably a good meaning for you
just to listen
Americans
and hear me
Americans
and I believe it's 90%
but I'll be
let's be totally crazy
I'll say it's only 70%
60%
only 60%
of a
Americans. And I think that number is wildly wrong. Most Americans don't want anything to do with the Nazis
or the anarchists and the communists. Nothing. They have nothing in common. They despise them both.
Most Americans, and yes, that includes the left. And left, if you happen to be listening,
that includes the right.
We want nothing to do with it.
They're both crazy, dangerous, and racist, period.
And here's what's happening.
The media, because they hate Donald Trump so much.
And the right media, because they hate the media so much,
are making
are giving America a false choice
you don't condemn
Donald Trump
really
not even the Nazis
you don't condemn Donald Trump
you are choosing the side
of the Nazis
and if you don't defend
on the right if you don't defend
Donald Trump then you're a communist
anarchist that might as well be
burning down
Neither of those are true.
That's not our choice.
You're with the black nationalists or the white nationalist?
I'm not with either of them.
The Democrats co-opted a very small sliver of radicals
that despise capitalism,
that despise America,
that despise white people,
that despise the cops,
the cops.
They co-opted them, thinking
they could control them. They'll bring
them in because it will add fuel.
Now, right,
if you're shaking your head right now,
going, yep, that's exactly what they did.
And you'll shake your head even more
when I say, and they lost
that battle. They have lost their soul.
Those guys are the heart of the party,
not the average Democrat,
but the party.
Now,
Let me speak to the left.
And you're going to shake your head.
And the Republicans are all going to be pissed.
But the Republicans did the same damn thing.
First of all, it was the Republicans that started the progressive movement.
So they've had progressives in their ranks from the very beginning.
But what have they done in the last three years?
They've co-opted the U.S.
alt right. Because why? Because they're racist? No. Because every vote counts. And so we'll use
them. And what's happening? The same thing that happened to the Democrats. And why did
each side do it? Because it drives money and it drives votes. Hate drives money and drives
votes. And so where does that leave the average person? Well, 80% of America,
Americans haven't seen a wage increase.
Most Americans have their kids in a school that they know is not preparing their children for anything
other than politically correct living, other than living in a Marxist state.
It's not preparing them for anything.
There's no actual education happening.
There's a re-education happening in our failing schools.
and you know what, don't tell me that that's a thing on the right because the left knows it.
Watch the lefties talk about education at TED Talks,
where they condemn the failing American education system.
The left knows it too. We both do.
None of us can afford college anymore for our kids.
Barely any of us can afford health care anymore.
That's what's happening with 80% of the nation.
maybe more. Are you seeing those people reflected at all? No. No. No. Instead, both parties are doing their
best just trying to get reelected. This is all about 2018 and 2020. This isn't about anything else.
This isn't about you. This isn't about real problems. This is about 2018 or 2020, period.
That's all this is about.
Dividing and spreading lies about 50% of the population.
Well, I want to make sure you understand.
If you're watching the left media, they're lying about 50% of the population.
And if you're watching the right media, they're lying about the other 50% of the population.
The truth is there's probably 10% of those freaks on the right.
And 10% of those freaks on the left.
And the rest of us want nothing to do with them.
It's why I reject both parties.
And I reject the media, both right and left.
I want nothing to do with you.
I will remove myself from the game happily before I lose my soul.
Can I just ask?
I don't need to ask you, because I know the average American gets this.
Can I ask those who are engaged in this insane death game?
How's this end? Play it out. How's it end?
Is it end in race war? Civil war? Global war?
Your side winning in 2020? Whichever side that is? And then, then we really get them?
What do you do with the remainder of the people, the 40% that just will not go along?
Well, first you have to demonize them.
Oh, we've already done that.
Then what do we do?
You shove and then you shoot.
Now, maybe 20% of the United States is effing out of their mind.
Maybe, maybe the country has gone out of its mind crazy.
But I am sorry.
I do not believe because I,
I have too many friends on both sides of the aisle and the issues that disagree who are afraid of their own side.
They are seeing where this is leading and they want nothing to do with it.
So maybe it's 20% that's crazy, but that leaves 80% of us who want nothing to do with it.
We all want our children to have health care, food.
We all want our children to have health care.
have a good education. I believe we all want our troops to come home. We want an end to the
endless wars. I want justice for the wronged. I want an end to racism. It's never going to leave us
because that's a human trait, but we can do better than we are. I want an end to poverty.
It's never going to leave us. But we're the most charitable people that have ever ever
lived. I want freedom for people who are enslaved. Today, there are more people enslaved today than in the
entire history of Western slavery combined. I want an end of oppression. I want an end to
government and banking and corporate corruption. I want, I want, I want, I want, I want,
I want the truth of American history to be known.
I don't think there's been anybody on the right, perhaps in the history of the right,
that has tried to do more to expose the bad parts of our history,
to expose how racist, how damaging, how ugly we have been.
But you can't just tell that part of the story.
that makes the glorious parts of our history better.
We reached beyond the slime.
We reached above ourself.
We saw something better.
I want history taught.
I want the bitter.
I want the sweet.
I want the bad cops to go to jail.
I want them to go to jail.
But I want the good.
cops to know. I can't begin to understand your job. But as long as you're on the right side of the law,
as long as you're on the right side of human decency, I got your back. I want compassion on the
border. But I also want justice and law and order. I want you to live as who you want to live as,
love who you want to love,
worship God, don't worship God,
and we can live side by side.
How do we not agree on some of these big things?
I want you to know,
I'm going to say some things today
that are going to make both sides uncomfortable.
Good, good.
Then I've done my job.
And no more.

Hello America
Tank
Listen
I need to be able to have
an adult conversation with you
We need to be able to talk
Not in sound bites but actually
Listen
to one another
And I think I've been listening to
you and I'd like to share some of the thoughts when we come back.
You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
Mercury.
The Glenn Beck Program.
Got this tweeting, Glenn from to At World of Stew on Twitter.
Wow, Glenn's monologue sounds like Winston Churchill, Gandhi, Jesus, and Hulk Hogan got spliced together.
The perfect explanation for the first half hour.
A little Randy Macho Man Savage thrown in as well today.
I want to read a letter from a dad.
A dad of a guy who saw his son on television interviewed
while he was holding a torch in Charlottesville.
The dad lives in Fargo, North Dakota.
He and his family are now being,
their lives are being destroyed in their hometown
for the actions of his son
isn't that the reason why we came here in the first place
that you did not have to pay for the
the sins of your name
that you were an individual and you could stand on your own two feet
and be judged by your actions that you weren't, you didn't get ahead of life because of your family name.
You, everyone had to earn it themselves.
I want to tell you a, I want to read this story to you, and I want you to put your self, take all politics out of it.
And I want you to put yourself in this dad's shoes.
I've never worked harder in my life on anything,
including this job, than I have on my children.
I have worked...
I was foolish and stupid and reckless and really thought,
you know, I have to do these things,
and, you know, the Lord will work it out.
with my older children and he has.
I am so blessed.
They both live next to us and, you know, we are so close and I love them to death and they love their father, thank God.
And they love their mother and they love their stepmom.
But I woke up a few years ago and I've tried so hard with my children knowing that
that my children could slip through my fingers and could become monsters.
Because the world is such a dangerous place.
They could lose their soul.
They could lose everything just by the wrong friends,
the wrong series of events.
My name is Pierce Teft.
This dad writes on Facebook.
I am writing to all with regards to my youngest son Peter Teft, an avowed white nationalist who's been featured in a number of local news stories over the last several months.
On Friday night, my son traveled to Charlottesville, Virginia.
He was interviewed by a national news outlet while marching with reported white nationalist who allegedly went on to kill a person.
I, along with all of his siblings and his entire family, wish to loudly repudiate my son's vile, hateful, and racist rhetoric and his actions.
I don't know specifically where he learned these things and gained these beliefs, but he did not learn them at home.
I have shared my home and my heart with friends and acquaintances of every race, gender, and creed.
I have taught all of my children that all men and women are created equal, that they have to love one another, all each of them the same.
Evidently, my son Peter, has chosen to unlearn these lessons, much to my and his family's heartbreak and distress.
And we've been silent up until now, but we now see that that was a mistake.
It was the silence of good people
that allowed the Nazis to flourish
the first time around
and it is the silence of good people
that is allowing them to flourish now
Peter Teft
my son is not welcome
at our family gatherings any longer
and I pray
my prodigal son
will renounce his hateful beliefs
and return home
then and only then
will I lay out
the feast. His hateful opinions are bringing hateful rhetoric to his siblings, cousins, nieces,
nephews, as well as his parents. Why must we be guilty by association?
Again, none of these beliefs were learned at home. We do not, never have, never will,
except his twisted worldview. He once joked, the thing about us, fascistice is,
is, it's not that we don't believe in freedom of speech. You can say whatever you want. We'll just
throw you in the oven. We'll just throw you in the oven. Peter, you're going to have to
shovel our bodies into the oven too. Please, son, renounce the hate, accept and love all. Did your
friends go insane? Did your family members go insane? Because this one did. But did he actually go
insane. What is happening?
What is happening?
Could you please play, Pat, the chance
that was going on with the guys who were
holding the teaky torches?
Listen to the chance of what these people are saying.
Jews will not replace us.
Jews will not replace us. Jews will not replace us.
Jews will not replace us.
Blood and soil.
Blood and soil.
Do you know anybody that agrees with that?
Do you know anybody that agrees with that?
Because I don't.
Do you know anybody who isn't shocked and horrified
even by the Nazi symbol?
We have, because of the museum,
we have artifacts from the Nazis.
Those artifacts don't even come into my home.
And every time I have shown someone an artifact of that,
I have a friend whose museum includes pin number one.
That means the Nazi pen, the little pen, lapel pin,
number one belonged to Adolf Hitler.
I have yet to meet anyone on the right or the left
that have seen that pin and didn't recoil back.
Nobody said, ooh, can I hold that?
I'll pick it up and move towards them and say,
this was Adolf Hitler's pen.
Every single time they move away from it.
Every time.
It's a lie.
It's a lie that if you don't,
if you don't condemn Donald
Trump that you are just like the Nazis.
Here's the other lie.
And this is the hardest one for anybody to get over.
There is a feeling in today's world, and it's always like this.
That softness is weakness, and that loud is strength.
It's not.
we
the
antidote
to our society
what's poisoning us right now
is what
hatred
what is the
antidote
to hatred
it's love
it's not more hatred
it's love
it's not
it's not
anger
it's not violence
It's not mob justice, it's love.
And nobody wants to hear this.
But if you're not actively pursuing love,
peace, kindness, healing, understanding,
you are part of the problem.
And I don't mean that to condemn you.
I mean that to be a message from history.
And if you don't think that understanding and healing and love works,
then you're going to have to revisit the story of Gandhi and Martin Luther King and Abraham Lincoln.
It doesn't mean that you don't stand up for what is right and you defend what is right.
It means with malice toward none and charity towards.
and charity toward all.
Abraham Lincoln was not an angry guy.
He was not a guy who was like, yeah,
and I'll tell you another thing they did.
That's not how we won.
That would have destroyed the country.
He had to stop his own vice president
in the second inaugural address
when the vice president stood up
and was like, yeah, and I'm telling you what,
we're going to take the south,
and we're going for reparations.
Abraham Lincoln had to tell him, sit down, go home.
We need fierce determination.
We need a dangerous unselfishness, as Martin Luther King said.
If the options that you believe we have to choose are between black supremacist, Antifa,
on one side
and on the other side
the KKK and the Nazis
and they're on the right
that I'm telling you
those are false choices
and I've never liked to stand
right in the mushy middle
but I'm telling you the only place to be is the middle
because if that's on one side
and the other is the Nazis
then I need to be the furthest away from
both of those and the only place
then to be is in the middle
we all need to gather in the middle
and say, I don't want either of those choices.
And if your party and your friends and your media choice
is making any excuses or ignoring the facts about either side or playing,
what about, it is high time.
You get new friends.
You get a new party.
And you get a new media source.
And now this.
Car shield.
Jeffie is,
Jeffie is the guy who,
you know,
he's kind of Charlie Brown.
God bless Jeffrey.
He's the guy who is, you know,
always at the short end of the stick
and gets the car that, you know,
always is the one that needs to be repaired.
And he's also always the guy who's the hardworking,
and no matter what we say about Jeffie,
he is the hardworking charitable one.
He is the guy who will give you the shirt off his back
and you can make it into a tent for a family of 10.
Is that a compliment?
I think so.
Just let's just go with that.
Jeffie is the guy who understands history of,
I wish I had Car Shield.
No question about that.
If you're somebody who is,
if you're somebody who has a car
and it doesn't have a warranty
or your warranty is about to go out.
Look, there's a reason these things only last for the warranty.
They cover the warranty and then they want you to buy a new car.
So if you say, I don't want to buy a new car,
well, a new engine will cost you $5,000.
An air conditioning unit.
Imagine living down south with that one.
Cost you as much as $1,500.
Just a water pump will cost you $500.
That makes a serious dent in everything that you'd do.
do. Car shield will have you covered. Right now you can get the VIP treatment from Car Shields
administrators. That means your car breaks down on the side of the road, which mine used to all the

The Glenn Beck Program.
So they began to tear down statues all over the country, Baltimore last night.
tore down a Confederate statue in the middle of the night.
This is going to continue to happen.
And it's now happening out of fear,
out of political correctness, out of anger,
all of the wrong reasons.
There are right reasons to take down statues.
There are a lot of wrong reasons to take them down,
and we are acting on all of that right now.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Mercury.
That's some good news.
There is a black group in Dallas that has vowed to protect the Confederate monuments here in the Dallas
Fort Worth area. It is in direct contrast to the way people are acting elsewhere.
This black group here in Dallas said, you know what? They don't affect my life. They're all
dead. And it is part of our history. Should we have perspective on those things? Yeah.
Should we just start tearing monuments down?
You know, I would suggest that's part of our problem,
that we are destroying everything.
Remember when I said to you,
everything that you thought was solid would be liquid,
and liquid will be solid.
The entire country is being turned inside out and upside down.
We'll show you, first of all,
how that's being done,
why that's being done.
But by the end of this hour,
I think you will also understand
who's really behind this.
And it's not your neighbor,
no matter who they voted for.
We begin there right now.
And enlightenment,
this is the Glenn Beck program.
Let me give you the,
Let me give you the story.
An anti-Trump activist has been accused of executing his neighbor
who was a prominent Republican and Donald Trump supporter.
Clayton Carter allegedly shot George Jennings, 51, twice in the head
outside of his home in Pennsylvania in the early hours of August 8th.
Clayton Carter 51, accused of shooting his neighbor, George Jennings.
Now, you can take this story.
And you can spin it this way.
Clayton had a whole bunch of Donald Trump signs in his front yard.
Anti-Trump.
I'm sorry, yeah, anti-Trump in his front yard.
He's the guy who did the shooting.
The neighbor who was shot was pro-Trump.
He was pro-GOP.
They had been going at it forever.
the anti-Trump guy had enough of his neighbor and executed him, put a bullet in his head,
and then as he came down, put a second bullet into his head.
As his wife looked on.
This is the story I can tell.
Or I could go a little deeper and say, yes, he was a rabid anti-Trump guy.
and I could just make a case.
Now all anti-Trump people are angry and violent,
and they're all going after their neighbors.
If you disagree with them, they'll put a bullet in your head
because that's how angry they really are.
I could get you whipped up into that.
Or I could say, you know what?
There's probably something more.
And once you do that homework, you realize this guy is,
the anti-Trump guy, is angry.
all the time about everything.
He's a guy who likes it seems to be angry
and nobody gets along with him in the neighborhood.
And these guys had been arguing for years.
It was the Hatfields and McCoy.
We need to stop looking
at just the political motivations in things.
We also need to stop
making generalizations
of everyone
based on
who they voted for.
Here's a guy who's anti-Donald
Trump. Look, he
shot his neighbor, executed his neighbor,
shot him twice in the head. That's just like
those anti-Trump people.
Look how angry they all are.
Why are
they angry? Why are they
angry?
And who's making them angry?
And why is the
left angry and who's making them angry? On both sides, I think both sides have a reason to be
angry. We can get into what aboutism all you want, but I'm not talking about the fringes. I'm
talking about the people that you know, the people that you've been friends with who are not
crazy. Why are they so angry? Something is playing on them beyond politics.
Now let me say, first I want to separate that group.
That's the group of people you know on both sides of the aisle.
Then there's another group.
And these groups deal in anger and rage and hatred.
Vice happened to be in Charlottesville over the weekend.
And so they were doing a special on this white nationalist group.
This is the alt-right.
This is anybody who was, you know, posting,
little pictures of the frog and and and you know starting you know you're just a cuck-servative
that all came from the alt-right all that language that so many of your friends adopted
was started by the alt-right now that doesn't make them an alt-right person it just means
they weren't aware of who these people are and let's show you who these people are on both
sides. Listen to this.
Jews will not
replace us. Jews will not
replace us. Jews will not
replace us. So that's what they're worried about.
They're worried about getting replaced by Jews.
And who can blame them?
Well, there's
16 million Jews in the planet. They all
have to have 10 jobs each,
10 full-time jobs each
just to cover the jobs in the United States.
Just in America. Yeah. And I'm very
very concerned about that.
I wouldn't say white nationalists are known for their math.
I wouldn't say that's one of their strong suits.
Right.
Well, they're socialists.
So they believe in the big state.
So they're probably for Common Core.
I'm worried about the Frisbetarians because they have replaced a lot of people already.
Frisbetarians?
Yeah.
The people who believe that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and you can't get it back down.
Like a frisbee.
Yeah.
I've never heard of it.
It's a pretty, oh yeah.
No, it's big.
It's really big.
It's in Clearwater, Florida, I believe it is the head of the Frisbatarian Church.
But anyway, we digress.
Here's more.
I'm here to spread ideas, talk, in the hopes that somebody more capable will come along and do that.
Somebody like Donald Trump, who does not give his daughter to a Jew.
Oh, man.
So Donald Trump, but like more racist.
A lot more racist than Donald Trump.
I don't think that you could feel about race the way I do and watch that Kushner bastard walk around with that beautiful girl, okay?
Is that unbelievable?
Unreal.
How do you get to feel that way about Jewish people?
How does that happen?
I don't even understand the Jewish hate that.
You have to be taught.
You have to be taught.
You're not born with that kind of stuff.
No.
Why would you be?
Unless you're Palestinian.
And then you've, you know, you've grown up in it and you've gone to kindergarten and they've taught you all these things.
In America, how does that happen?
How does that happen?
I have no idea.
I have no idea.
I didn't even know a Jewish person until my agent George Hilsick.
I mean, it's what, 30?
I don't, I mean, not that I.
I may have known, but I never, you know, I never like, oh, you're Jewish.
What's happened with it?
I don't, I'm sure I knew them.
I didn't care.
We didn't talk about it.
It was no big deal.
You treat people as individuals, which is kind of how you're supposed to do it, I think.
Right.
But I mean, you look at this and it's like, that clip starts as if it sounds like it's going to be the typical media attack against Donald Trump.
Yeah.
And you realize that, you know, that is not what it was at all.
that is this guy saying
Donald Trump isn't going nearly
far enough for me
and this is why you want
Trump to come out and disassociate
himself with these people as strongly as possible
because they're not they're not
look Donald Trump does not believe
what this moron believes. You look at who he's
put in his administration besides
his daughter and his
you know. Please tell me there's no more Jews in that. There's lots
of them. Oh my gosh. He was doing this
this he was behind Gary
Cohn and Steve Mnuchin were right behind him when he was doing the press conference yesterday.
Thank goodness he had any black people in.
You know what?
Yeah.
Holy cow.
This is stunning.
I didn't know.
Jews and blacks.
Yeah.
Both working.
Yes.
Side by side.
Yes.
Holy cow.
This guy's going to be pissed off about it.
I'm sure in this audio.
So this is, again, just showing you.
It's bizarre.
You do not.
defend, excuse, or play
What Aboutism?
The minute you say, you hear this,
you hear this, you do not follow
this with, yeah, but, you know, the other side is,
I don't care what the other side is doing.
You know what that is? You know what that makes you sound like?
Everyone we have railed against since September 11th.
Yes, I'm against the terrorists.
I will tell you that you guys have done,
you stop listening to those people.
And this is the problem with Donald Trump's speech.
If you are not absolutely crystal clear,
these guys are an enemy of not the United States,
not a mind, of mankind.
There's no what aboutism.
There's no other side.
There's nothing.
We're talking about them right now.
Believe me, I'll get to the other side later.
We're talking about them.
There's no way you stand or dismiss or do anything but say that's poison.
I am as far away from that as possible.
And you can watch CNN all day and find in any place and find people denouncing white supremacists.
Some of them are just doing it hyper-partisan anti-Trump reasons.
Some of them are doing it and they are completely right.
word for word, I would agree with them.
The issue here, though, is none of those things mean anything to white supremacists.
None of those denunciations coming from CNN or MSNBC mean a thing.
It would mean something from Donald Trump.
And that's why you want him to be so passionate about it, more passionate than a guy leaving
your economic council.
They don't mind being on the fringe.
They like being on the fringe.
That's where they, that's the only place they can grow in darkness.
the president shining a spotlight on them is really important.
But I really don't care about how they feel.
I really don't.
What I care about is that we have drawn a very bright line all around them
and said, do not cross this line.
To our side.
To our side.
See this group of people?
This is what they believe.
Stay a million miles away from them.
It's not about them.
It's about us.
I'm not going to excuse.
I'm not going to play what aboutism at all.
I won't.
They're wrong.
They're evil.
And they are an enemy to humanity.
Next clip, please.
Left wasn't able to beat us.
The left who were the good boys of the capitalist class and the bourgeoisie and the status quo.
Okay, stop for a second.
Hang on just a second.
What was that?
What word was not?
What was that?
Capitalist.
Yeah.
What is he saying there, Stu?
He seems to be against capitalists.
The bourgeoisie.
And the bourgeoisie.
I'm sorry, the only person I have ever met in my life or even seen in movies that uses the word bourgeoisie are Marxists.
Well, Marxists and Jeffrey who doesn't like bougie sauce.
He uses that on a regular basis, but not the entire.
word because he doesn't know it.
Right.
But the bourgeois, you're right, the bourgeois Z, this is, and it's an attack used, by the way,
by people you might know as national socialists.
Yeah.
They don't like capitalism.
So wait a minute.
They crushed it.
By listening and exposing these people, you now can see in their own language, when they say
alt-right, they mean alternate right, as in defining the word alternate, a replacement
of the right.
They cannot coexist with the right
because they do not believe in the
Constitution. They believe in a
Marxist, socialist, heavy
government state. They have nothing
to do with us.
Draw a bright line around
that. Back in just a second,

All right.
So the reaction to the president's press conference yesterday
was this press conference is going to be the undoing of his presidency.
If I, you know, I hear that almost, it's almost to the point to where I'm
expecting, you know, the president's last bowel movement is going to be the end of his presidency.
They say that about everything this man does.
I sure do.
Everything.
Everything this man does.
And I don't want to talk about the typical battle, because you're going to get that on every other talk radio host agenda today.
I don't want to talk about that battle.
I want to talk about why he can't fight that battle
and he can't fight the battle that he wants to fight
because he did not come out in the first day.
I'm sorry, but tiki torches and Nazi flags
scare the bat crap out of 99% of America
and rightfully so.
And he said, well, I don't.
didn't because I wanted more information. Well,
what more information did you get?
Well, you got things like
this. This is somebody
one of the organizers
talking about, you know, that
woman that was killed was justified.
Listen to this. But the car that struck
a protester, that's
unprovoked.
That's not true, and you know
that it's not true. You've seen the video.
I've seen a video. I don't know much about it.
I understand that you're... Can you describe
what the video appears to show?
Okay.
So the video appears to show someone's striking that vehicle when these animals attacked him again.
And he saw no way to get away from them except to hit the gas.
My gosh.
And sadly, because our rivals are a bunch of stupid animals who don't pay attention.
They couldn't just get out of the way of his car.
And some people got hurt.
And that's unfortunate.
So you think it was justified?
I think it was more than justified.
I can't believe the amount of restraint that our people showed out there,
I think was astounding.
Wow.
Okay, so that's the dream world they live in.
Now, can somebody follow that and feel good about themselves with, well, Bob?
Can you?
No.
You cannot follow.
No, it's not the time for that.
Yeah.
And you cannot have, because that is an intellectual discussion.
Yeah.
It's an intellectual discussion.
It is just like saying there's a school shooting and all these kids were shot.
and coming out in the press conference and saying,
we need gun control.
And it drives us out of our mind every time we do that.
Correct.
Because it, wait, that's not the time to have this conversation.
The time to mourn and to just condemn evil.
Not to play what aboutism or politics.
And if you miss that opportunity,
you are forever branded as that,
just like we, and hear me carefully and clearly,
just like the right branded Barack Obama
because of workplace violence,
those were all terrorist attacks.
Those were terrorist attacks.
And he was seen by those on the left as,
no, he's clear about that.
He knows, we know, no, no, half the country doesn't know
that you know that those were terrorist attacks
because you were wishy-washy.
Doesn't matter what you say
when you're giving a speech in front of Congress.
It matters what you say,
what's your gut say?
And that's where he missed it.
Now, I want to play one more clip,
but this goes to a clip on the extremist
on the other side when we come back.
All right, I want to play
what talk radio and the right, and I believe rightfully so,
will be playing today. Play the woman about Thomas Jefferson.
They took more statues down, and this is going to make you feel good about yourself and your position.
You will see that what the president said last night is true.
What's next? George Washington, Thomas Jefferson.
that is true. That is coming. And so talk radio will spend a lot of time on this. Listen to this.
This is the face of supremacy. This is what we deal with every day being African American. And this has always been the reality of Charlottesville. You can't stand in one corner in the city and not look at the master sitting on top of Monticello. He looks down on us. He's been looking down on the city for God knows how long.
Okay. So that is saying Thomas Jefferson has to be,
removed.
All right.
So that's true.
That is true.
And that is important to note and important to understand.
However, what is happening is we have a poison in our own ranks.
And if we don't get this poison out, we fail and we become everything we despise.
And I'm not saying that for any other reason other than history.
repeats itself. And this has happened and is happening all over the world. Jason just came in
a few minutes ago. He's a chief researcher on the program. And he said, I've got to go over a
couple of things. And I want you to hear him out. Jason, how are you? Good. Good.
Yeah, well, it's interesting because you've been talking about the links between Russian groups
and far right groups over in Europe. We were talking about this back in 2014.
You're saying that a lot of these far-right Nazi nationalist groups, they're getting direct funding from or at times even instruction from the Russian government.
And a lot of that was being directed towards a guy that we called out, which is Alexander Dugan.
He's basically the grand wizard, if you want to call him behind everything.
Okay, so I want you to understand.
This Russia piece, this is what's important.
not not whether Donald Trump
was working with the Russians
to thwart the election
we got enough there
what they did
is they spent all of their Russian
capital
the left
all of the Russian capital
and they spent it all
trying to get Donald Trump
instead of trying to find out where the real
danger is
the right in response
did everything they could to just dismiss Putin
all the way to the president saying we're no different than Russia.
We are very different than Russia.
It's what aboutism and hatred.
And so we've missed some things.
And you can't let this happen on this particular case.
Now how does this tie in to what I was saying in 2014?
Bring me up to speed on how this ties in.
We go to the audio that we have.
Let's do that.
Okay, I want you to listen to this.
Now, it's going to play it in two sections.
This again, from one of the organizers of the rally in Charlottesville.
Now listen, carefully.
The left wasn't able to beat us.
The left were the boot boys of the capitalist class and the bourgeois Z and the status quo.
So they weren't able to beat us with their armed militant left wing radicals.
So they had to turn to the state.
If that doesn't go to show that the radical left, the corporations and the state are all on the same Jewish side.
A moment like this proves it.
Okay, so he's anti-capitalism, you know, anti-American, anti-corporation.
And they're all, of course, they're only that way because they're Jewish.
Okay, so crazy talk, okay?
But it reveals they are not American constitutionalists.
Now, here's the part that everyone in the media will miss, and it is the most important
thing that has been exposed yet.
Can you tell us a little bit about the organizing tactics you guys can use?
Sure, primarily following the European example of Golden Dawn, the Nordic Resistance
Movement, and other organizations that really are at the vanguard of nationalist
organizing the world.
I'll be able to coordinate over a large area to bring our people together.
This is the largest nationalist rally in over two decades.
Stop.
Wow.
This goes back to the chalkboard at Fox.
When I first introduced the Nazis, my first first.
first time, I believe
that I was hammered
in the press for bringing up the Nazis.
It goes that far back
because think about how many times I've been
hammered for bringing up Nazis.
And what I said,
and what I said, if you remember, it was about
Gert Wheeler,
what's his name is,
and I said,
I made a statement about him and said,
danger, because this will
grow into this kind of
the movement and it will jump over the sea to us and it will happen and you will see the hatred
of the 1930s all over again. We've now been trying to expose this over the last, what, three years
here? Since 2014. Specifically about Russia. So what can you add? I heard him actually say
Golden Dawn and Nordic resistance movement. And I think my
gum actually fell out of my mouth when he said that. I could not believe that he was actually
admitting that they were working with people like that or modeling a resistance after that.
Golden Dawn is you, you've been talking about them for a while. They have, they are, they're,
they have direct ties to Alexander Dugan. They have direct funding that they have, they've actually
traced back to the Kremlin. This is one of many groups that ever since back 2013, 2014.
This was how the Kremlin in Russia began to start reaching out to far right groups to
cause and stability. So I was talking
about the Golden Dawn when they had 1%
support in Greece.
1%. They had just launched
the Golden Dawn Party.
And the strange
their logo looks oddly
reminiscent to a swastika.
Now how did they
first approach it?
They first approached it
exactly the way it's happening
now in America with the alt-right.
They start standing
against national
things and they start standing for national pride
and the pride of the Greek people.
And you will quickly see, mark my words,
you will quickly see if they are indeed following the pattern of
Golden Dawn, which is following the pattern set out by Alexander
Dugan. You can read it. He publishes these books in English.
You will see the next thing they did was start to attack.
immigrants. Golden Dawn went in to all of the
markets and they burned down and overturned
the table of all of the immigrant markets. You're not
Greek enough. Get out. That caused a real stir
kind of like this. So what did they do? What all good
socialists do? What did Hugo Shavas do
with Sitko? He gave away free gas to the needy. What did Golden
Dondo delivered groceries for free to those who had no money.
They're for the little people.
Operationally speaking, we are basically where Europe was in 2013, 2014, as far as a Russian
intelligence operation and Dugan's association with them.
We are basically Europe in 2013, 2014.
The connections that we're already making, these are just a few of them.
But listen to the connections to our far-right Nazi movement with Dugan and
Russian intelligence.
Richard Spencer,
whoever everyone knows by now,
he has direct links with
Dugan.
His wife, Nina Kuprianova,
she has an alias Byzantina.
His wife.
Is Dugan's English translator?
The official translator
for Dugan.
Spencer and his buddy
Preston Wiginton is a Texan.
Wiginton.
I'm sorry.
That is a character on the Simpsons.
Preston Wigton?
Yes.
All right.
They're the ones that are trying to one up the Charlottesville protest and do that down at Texas A&M.
Wiginton has already Skyped in Dugan to speak to people at Texas Am on the campus.
He's been Skyping Dugan in to spread this message directly.
And it goes on from there.
Hineback is also Matthew Heimbach.
That was the guy that was speaking with Vice in that soundbite.
He just started up a movement called the traditionalist youth.
movement. His symbol, and you're
going to love this, Glenn, is half of a
seven-pointed star. Who else
has a seven-pointed star is their symbol?
Well, let's see. That, well, it used to be
the symbol for chaos, and that would be
oh, Alexander Dugan.
Exactly. They're not, it's like, they're not even
trying to hide it. Hinebeck has also
taken Dugan's message. He's Skyping in Dugan
to California, places like that. He just
Skyped in to another
alt-right, fascist movement, Nazi
movement in California. Dugan
is preaching out there as well. They are,
these same guys, all the same
collaborators and the people that are organizing these events,
they are using Dugan as their mouthpiece.
So for anybody who thinks this doesn't matter,
I ask you,
did it matter when the Pope,
Ronald Reagan, and Margaret Thatcher
all got together and we sent operatives in
and planted the seeds of discontent
and strengthened the anti-communist,
fringe groups in Poland.
When we strengthen them,
when we tutored them, when we taught them,
when we finance them,
did it matter? Yes!
We collapsed the Soviet Union.
Putin is doing a reverse play on us,
and two things are happening.
One, we're too damn stupid
to admit it.
because what aboutism?
Oh, that doesn't matter.
Did Woodrow Wilson matter?
Did Woodrow Wilson matter?
Because I spent about three years hearing from everybody on the planet.
Oh, progressive liberal, it doesn't matter.
Did it?
Did your knowledge of progressivism change everything?
Did it finally explain to you how we got here in the first place?
The answer is yes.
Now are we going to spend the next three years saying, oh, Dugin doesn't matter, Putin doesn't matter.
The alt-right is too small because I have news for you.
In three years, in three years from now, you will pray to God for anyone to stop it.
This is the Nazi and communist playbook that has been played out over and over.
and over again.
You know how they stopped it in France?
They built the Statue of Liberty.
The Statue of Liberty was not built for us.
It was built for them.
Because the Marxists and the communists
were all gathering and trying to overthrow the system in France.
And they needed something.
How do we do it?
We point to the horizon and say,
there's where we need to go.
There's the hope.
That torch is in prison lightning.
That's the way we need to go.
Not this Marxist-Nialist idea.
Who's giving us that point on the horizon?
Is our point on the horizon really that the media needs to be destroyed?
Is our point on the horizon that the Nazis need to be destroyed?
Is that the best we can do?
The best we can do is that Antifa,
needs to be destroyed.
That's not a vision for the future.
That's not a vision for America.
That's not a vision I want anything a part of.
Yes, they have to be stopped.
And then what?
Return to this?
We must have an articulated vision.
We must remember who we are.
And I'll tell you who you are.
You are the people that just
freed and save the lives of 8,000 people.
You got 8,000 people out of the Middle East
when no country would take them.
8,000.
You fed almost 30,000 and moved them to safe places.
That's who you are.
And you did it easily.
The greatest thing we can do
is get the other side to shut up.
Wow.
What a country.
Sponsor, this half hour is say anything.
You're looking for a way to play games with your kids.
Can I tell you something?
I'm so worried about my kids.
I know you're the same way.
And I don't know if I'm worried about my kids
as much as I'm sad to see them grow up in a way.
I'm selfish.
That's what it is.
I'm selfish.
My son's voice changed.
This is so stupid.
My son's voice changed over the summer.
And it's like I'm talking to a man.
And my little buddy is different now.
And it's going to be a great phase.
And he's going to be a great man.
But I already regret every second I didn't spend with them.
My daughter
My daughter is turning into a woman
There's a new game called Say Anything
It's a game where you can play
And you actually start to have a conversation with your kids
And there's nothing, it's not a conversation game
It's not one that it's a trick.
They don't see it coming.
Play it with your family. Say anything.
You're fined at Target now. It's on sale for five bucks.
Say anything.
$5 off now at Target.
Say anything.
Glenn Beck Programme.
8-727 back.
Mercury.
8-7-27 back.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Tomorrow, I'm going to explain why the rallying cry that you're hearing and that you're feeling right now.
Even if you can't articulate it, what is happening and what is the chosen
vehicle that will get you so far off course that you won't recognize yourself two years from now.
Remember, I've said the world is going to be so different that you'll wake up and everything
that you thought was solid was liquid. We're already there. You don't recognize your country.
In two years, you won't recognize yourself unless you understand what I'm going to explain
on tomorrow's program. There's a ton of things that don't make a difference in your world.
Almost every bit of this political bickering back and forth makes no difference to you in your life.
If you're like me, I want no part of either side.
But there are important things in that story that we have to watch for.
There is a very different perspective on this.
Coming from a guy who writes for the Wall Street Journal,
his last book was, if I remember right,
Stop helping us.
And it is a message from the black community to everybody who's like,
oh, we're going to help you out.
Stop it.
Stop it.
You're killing us.
There's something else that's going on that I want to make sure that I mentioned today.
And Stu, if you'll write this down so I don't forget, I have to talk to you.
I was reading a story about Charlie Gard's mom, who, and I'll just read a couple of lines
of this later, who recalls when the doctor came in and said, it's better and more humane if you
kill your son. Can you imagine that being said to you? On top of that, I must get to the Reykjavik story,
which ties into this. In Reykjavik, they now have achieved a zero percent
Down syndrome birth rate.
Zero percent in Reykjavik guaranteed never to have another down syndrome child.
This strikes me with more fear than what I'm seeing in Charlottesville.
And that scares the hell out of me.
And I want to talk about that.
We got a lot to do.
We begin right now.
Enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program.
I want to introduce you to Jason Riley. He is the author of the book. Please stop helping us.
I think you have to say it that way. And now a new book called False Black Power.
We could sit here and talk about all the bad things, but why don't we figure out ways to fix it?
That's why Jason is on today.
Jason, welcome to the program.
How are you, sir?
I'm good.
Thanks for having me.
So, Jason, first of all, you know, I'd like to tie this into the umbrella of what is happening in our communities and what I think is coming our way, unfortunately.
But I don't want to just concentrate on that.
I want to find what is the squeeze or the pressure point.
on people, you know, in the white community and in the black community that is allowing us to feel comfortable to play the game of what aboutism?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's wrong. But what about when they? We're losing sight of everything.
What is the pressure point in the black community that is giving people the feeling that it's okay?
okay to excuse people who are calling for, you know, hate and destruction and, you know,
death to cops, et cetera, et cetera. Do you have any idea?
Well, I don't know that it's really a situation. We can all look at, also the polling at the end
of the Obama administration. The race relations were at their lowest point since the
1992 riots in Los Angeles. So I think it had these anecdotal.
evidence of phones and passed around the internet very quickly in recent decades. But you know how
powerful and emotional and anecdote can be. So I think that that has fueled it as well. And then I
think we currently have a president who isn't that concerned with trying to bridge these
divides. I think he has made some political hay out of it. He probably believes it's helped him
and perhaps it has in some ways.
I don't think it's why he got elected.
I think he got elected because a lot of people that voted for Obama
decided to vote for Donald Trump,
but maybe he thinks him,
and he's a little hesitant to go after them too hard.
So here's, and I think this is really the thrust of the conversation
we should have about your book,
and that is there's a lot of people,
and I think the press is partly at fault with this,
and I include myself, you know, hate, anger, outrage, it sells.
It gets the clicks.
And everybody is driven by clicks and views and ratings.
Oh, it's more than that.
It's more than that.
It also...
Right.
And I think that is what Obama was doing by...
And then I think that's part of the problem.
That's part of the reason that race relations worsened to the extent they did on his watch.
It wasn't just the shootings caught on video.
It was how he exploited them, how he played to fears of blacks in particular.
You know, the Democrats get a lot of mileage out of keeping blacks racially paranoid and angry.
He really played that up.
So I watched this weekend, and, you know, there's nothing, to me, there's nothing more offensive to the memory of real civil rights leaders than,
the so-called civil rights leaders today,
where is the Martin Luther King of today?
That on either side, anywhere, from any walk of life,
that is standing up and saying,
love, reconciliation,
this is wrong on both sides,
and we've got to stop it.
We have to call evil by its name.
Nazis are evil.
And it's got to stop,
but we have to stop feeding into the hate.
Where is that person?
Is there that person?
No, I don't know.
Yes.
And that's what you have out there, a civil rights industrialist, so to speak, people that make a living, that deal in racial explanation or racism as an all-purpose explanation for all that's negative in black America.
And essentially blaming white.
You know, Dr. King was about colorblindness.
He was about personal responsibility.
Today you have groups like Black Lives Matter.
you know, Black Lives Matter is not interested in colorblindness, obviously, right?
I mean, they're interested in color consciousness, keeping race front and center.
You know, King said, judged me by the content of my character, not the color of my skin.
These guys are saying, black lives matter, and don't you say otherwise.
So we've done a 180.
We've color consciousness as the modus operandi today, where it used to be about...
Jason Riley, who just released the book,
false black power also wrote,
please stop helping us on the situation in black America today
and these false civil rights activists.
When you have something like Black Lives Matter,
did that grow out of people supporting,
and I use that loosely because I don't know very many African-Americans
or blacks that actually support Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton.
Everybody I know think they're frauds.
But that may just because I hang around more conservatives than anybody else.
But did that come from a place to where,
all right, I've trusted the Democratic Party.
I've trusted the civil rights leaders.
And nobody really cares.
Nobody's doing anything.
Nothing in my life is changing.
They whip me up for my vote or my money and then I get nothing and they get rich and powerful.
There's some of that going on.
I think maybe a younger generation.
People rights old guard that people like Jackson and Sharpton and the NWACP represent.
I think that that is partly it.
According, I mean, the official history there is that it grew out of Trayvon Martin shooting and then what happened in Ferguson.
and something resemblance at that point and then really took off.
What are we headed towards?
I think things could get worse before they get better.
And I think what you're saying with the white nationalists and the alt-right folks
is something of a backlash against the Black Lives Matter types.
And we've seen this before.
If you go back and look at what came after the Black Power Movement in the 1960s,
we got in the 1970s and 80s a rise in skinheads and other white identity groups pushing back.
Two can play this game.
I mean, you want to play identity politics?
You can play white identity politics.
You can play black identity politics.
I think it leaves us in a very bad way.
I think it's bad for our national discourse, obviously.
I think it's bad for our politics.
Jason, is there such a thing as a national discourse anymore?
It's a good question. I'd like to think there is, or something that passes for one,
but it's tough. It's tough partly because, as you know, being in the media,
and then what they want to hear, they don't spend a lot of time flipping around the channels,
listening to different points of view or reading a variety of different news outlets.
You basically, you know, listen to what you want to hear.
And that makes it tough to have a so-called national conversation.
Doesn't that also make that impossible to survive?
I hope not.
I'm an optimist.
I hope not.
But I do think that things could get worse before they get better, unfortunately.
Do you see a growing segment anywhere?
Because I do, but maybe it's just my anecdotal, you know, experiences.
Do you see a growing want?
of people wanting to spit themselves out of the system
and are concerned about their own side.
They're just not yet really willing to stand up
and say it out loud,
but privately, they're like,
you know, my side's starting to scare the hell out of me too.
I mean, on the one hand, you see this environment,
and you go, are people getting sick of this stuff?
At the same time, the ratings are off the charts.
People have never been more engaged.
than they are today.
If we've reached a tipping point yet, I do.
I mean, I'm not sure we have.
Do you believe that the perception in the black community,
is it an easy thing to say,
or do people actually believe that their station in life
is really kept in place because of racism?
believe that your typical black leader or this organization pushes that narrative.
But no, I don't think everyday blacks think that, believe that, and haven't for a long time.
And I talk about that a little bit in the book where I talk about what blacks say among themselves when whites aren't around
versus what black leaders say in front of the cameras and to reporters.
I will tell you that I just, I just executive produced a program with a bunch of black people,
and they came, and they did a show, and I watched it, and I'm like, okay, why would anybody want to watch that?
I mean, it's the same stuff I see everywhere else.
And I said, I know you guys, and that's not how you talk, how you dress.
I don't, I don't care.
We had a conversation.
I said, don't do a show for me.
Do a show for you.
Do a show for who you hang out with.
The show came back wildly different and unbelievable.
And I felt like it was not uncomfortable at all where sometimes you feel like, you know,
oh, this is a show that's not meant for me and I'm not comfortable.
I heard discussions in a black community that I've never heard before.
And not in a not in a pandering way of any way.
It was like I was just a fly on the wall.
And it's amazing how much.
we have in common when we just are not we don't have a filter between us. Does that make sense?
It does. It makes a lot of sense. But as I said, it's a very lucrative industry. And that is why
playing the victim card continues to be popular on the left, on the black left in particular.
And this narrative continues to be pushed. My argument, though, is that it's not doing, you know,
everyday blacks, any favors?
No.
It's, you know, to send young people out there to school with a chip on their shoulder,
that the world is out to get them, the cops are out to shoot them down,
and that all of their problems are a result of white America.
You're just not doing these young people any favors at all when you send them out there
with that mentality, with that victim mindset.
But pushing that narrative again in the media, you're not going to go poor.
you're not going to go hungry.
There seems to be a great appetite for that.
From the Wall Street Journal, Jason Riley, author of the book, False Black Power,
thank you for being on, and God bless.
We'll talk to you again.
Thanks, Jason.
Now this, simply safe.
This is the time of the year that you start to see a spike in burglaries
because this is when people generally go on vacation.
There are signs that you're not home.
And, you know, that's why the first, the timers on the lights,
you know, the ones you used to plug in and you could hear from across the room going, you know, ticking away.
Those were first brought in, at least in my memory, because of vacations.
People wanted people to think that they were home.
I got to have the bedroom lights go on and off at a certain time.
That's what that was for, to fool the burglars.
Well, burglars don't want to show up when you're home.

There was a story that I saw yesterday from CBS News,
and it reported that Iceland is leading the world in, quote,
eradicating Down syndrome births.
end quote.
There was a tweet that said that, and then it had a picture of this really beautiful child.
It said, Iceland is on pace to virtually eliminate Down syndrome through abortion.
And has this beautiful child of about four years old in the snow hat and everything else.
Am I supposed to like that?
Am I supposed to say, oh, look at that beautiful child, that should be dead.
This is one of the, this to me, and I might be alone, this to me is the biggest symbol of the doom of humanity and the doom of our society.
we are talking about Down syndrome babies
and a country that has now made it so easy
and so right
to abort your child if your test comes back and says they'll have Down syndrome.
They have taken the most beautiful children
and beautiful people that I honestly have ever met.
I have met spiritual leaders, big, spiritual leaders.
Uh-huh.
Right.
Okay, well, I'll listen to you on the pulpit, maybe for about five minutes.
You're a fraud.
And then I've met people like Billy Graham,
who is absolutely the real deal.
But every Down syndrome,
child or person that I've ever met is a spiritual giant. Years ago, I was young and had never spent
any time around Down syndrome and really people of different abilities at really at all. I had no
impact in my life personally with it. And I remember I was working in New Haven, Connecticut,
And the Special Olympics, the global games for Special Olympics happened in New Haven, Connecticut.
And the entire town left for the week.
And it was really sad because the media had said, oh, traffic's going to be horrible.
So everyone went on vacation for those 10 days.
And it was a ghost town.
And we went and we were working a lot of the events.
and I will tell you that what the impact that had on my life was profound
and the impact that I walked away with immediately is, you know,
and this is in the day in the early 90s when we could still use this word,
and I remember thinking, you know, the world deems these children
retarded. I'm the retarded one. I'm the one whose growth has been retarded from
from greed and malice and and ego and the world and stuff and and sexuality and whatever it is.
Down syndrome people are the best among us. They truly are. They truly are.
That's not some politically correct.
Oh, they're the best among us.
No, they're not.
Yeah, these guys are.
They will be our rulers on the other side because they get it.
They are not afraid.
All guile has been taken from them.
And CBS reports through abortion,
Iceland is the first to nearly eradicate
these people.
Thumbs up.
That is not progress.
Let's call it what it is.
That's eugenics.
That is Margaret Sanger's most
base dream.
Get rid of the undesirables.
Get rid of the people
who can't really work
for a living.
Don't really have any quality of life.
I'd rather have their quality.
of life than mine,
I would so much rather go through life,
loving everybody I meet.
Don't you ever get to a point where you don't want to understand the world?
You just don't want to understand
that there's just a lot of bad people.
Don't you ever get to the point where you're just like,
I don't want to be a part of that anymore.
This is what the article says.
other countries aren't lagging too far behind in Down syndrome termination rates
Iceland is on pace to virtually eliminate Down syndrome through abortion
you're not eliminating Down syndrome you're eliminating people
people
you're not going in and genetically splicing something you are eliminating people
I'm concerned about the genetic splice.
I'm a father of a daughter of special needs.
Only a parent can truly understand this,
a parent of special needs.
I would give my life for my daughter to have an easier life.
But I would not take her life away.
because her life is tough.
She's one of the best people I know.
And she's made me such a...
I mean, it's bad because I also realize,
man, I've got a lot to learn.
I've got a long way to go to be a good person.
And it's a constant reminder to me.
She is a constant humbling of me.
Would I abort her?
Never.
If I could abort the mean things that people have said to her.
If I could abort the mean actions that people have shown her,
if I could abort the pain that she has felt from those actions,
my daughter changed in the second grade.
she had a friend who she never went over to their house she never she we never never met her friend
but it was her best friend and she would come home and she would talk about her best friend all the
time and one day she came home and she told us about her best friend was having a birthday party
and she invited everybody.
He said, oh, that's great, Mary, when is the party when you go?
And she said, and cheerfully, oh, I wasn't invited.
What?
I thought you said she invited everybody in the class.
She did, but she didn't invite me.
And she followed it up immediately with, but that's okay.
That's okay.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
And I'm just glad.
And I know she's going to have a great party.
I don't think I stopped crying for two days.
Would I like that to go away?
Yeah.
But that has nothing to do with the way she was born.
It has everything to do with the way, you know, normal people are born.
I would ask, when I saw this story and I saw this sweet child,
the bottom of a CBS tweet
with all kinds of likes underneath it
I thought we
can go no lower
unfortunately we can
but not as the people we've been
if this is the people
this is a new chapter
of humanity
and we've seen it before
it's the way the world usually is
the last two
hundred years have been an anomaly. The world usually is like the Game of Thrones. And we just
won't be the same when we pass this door and cross its threshold. And I would ask that you would
beg for forgiveness and beg for God to heal our hearts and heal our land.
because I just don't think there's a lot left here in our corner before we turn real dark.
But good news, everything is a choice.
And I used to be a guy who was suicidal because I never thought things could change.
And then I realized everything can change the moment I decide.
the moment you decide, I'm not going to be a part of that.
The moment you decide, not on my watch, the moment you decide to choose love over hate,
to choose hope over fear, you're going to be okay.
But it has to be a conscious choice.
It has to be one you have really thought about and you have spoken.

There is a one warning sign that we've been
telling you for about a year that we need to
watch out for
and that is the
subprime car loans.
We've told you that the
subprime car loan problem
when it hits
that's going to be the beginning of the
unraveling. It was kind of like when I was watching for the price of oil and I said it gets up to
$140 a barrel, you're going to start to see the subprime housing market unravel. I was wrong.
It wasn't 140. It was 130. But that was the first sign of the unraveling. Here's the headline,
Deep subprime car loans hit Crisis Era milestone. There's a section of the car loan market known as the
deep subprime where delinquency rates now have ticked up to the level last scene in 2007 with the
homes. This is the sign I've been looking for and experts have been looking for that says this is the
beginning of the unraveling. Here's what I would like you to do. I would like you to call Goldline and I would
like you to ask them for information.
No decision is a decision.
Putting it off another day, I'll get to that, or I don't know, that's making a decision.

I'm going to go back to what we were just talking about,
what's happening up in Iceland,
on eliminating people, not Down syndrome, but people.
And something that Stu's just said.
Well, I mean, it's one of these things where we all can come together today
and say it's a great idea, and it's obvious that we should denounce Nazis.
And it's totally true.
Should we denounce Nazis?
Should we denounce racism?
Yes, yes, yes, 100%.
Shouldn't it be just as obvious
that we should denounce the idea of eliminating people?
The praise of eliminating Down syndrome
is the praise of eliminating people.
And you know what's amazing?
Is a lot of times it is the left
that is cheering for the elimination of Down syndrome
while they're condemning the Nazis,
but this was the whole point of the Nazi movement.
The first thing they did was eliminate the undesirables
and those who couldn't pay their own way in life.
