I don't know where he stands on the environment or white people being the pain of all existence, but he knows a little bit about politics.
Starting point is 00:02:34 So let me start there in 60 seconds. This is the Glenn Beck program.

I mean, not a good do-it-yourselfer, but yesterday I was a good do-it-yourselfer, but yesterday I was, out, I was out in the back 40, you know, and I was, uh, taking down all of the, all of the, uh, the thistle. We've got thistle for the first time. Good heavens that stuff grows. And it's like a tree. It's crazy. Anyway, I did that and I, uh, I sanded the table down in the kitchen. I got some blinds.com, uh, shades coming for the cabin. I got to put those up. Probably won't do that one myself. I'll leave that one up to my wife, because, uh, that one will count.

I have to tell you what they taught me about. I was measuring, and they were like, no, just, no, just tell me what, just put it all the way across.
Starting point is 00:04:13 And I'm like, okay, well, it's, and she was on FaceTime with me, this designer. And she's like, no, no, that's not the way you measure. And I'm like, of course that's the way you measure. She's like, no, would you just look at the bottom of the tape measure, will you? There's something in the bottom of the tape measure I never knew was there that completely changes the way you measure and you're accurate. I mean, it's crazy. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I didn't know this. What is it? A little gnome? Yes. It's a little, it's a little elf and gnome. Isn't that exciting? No. Remind me and I'll tell you about it because it's such a little gnome.

Starting point is 00:05:14 Hey, that. Okay, all right. I want you to hear me out, Stu. Okay. Sure.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Going to make a good case here. I've been working on this one for a while. And I know you are our stat man. So I know that I know that you're going to tear it apart and you're going to harsh my mellow, but I'm asking you not to at least let me have a few minutes of good feelings. Okay? Sure. All right.
Starting point is 00:05:41 All right. You know what would make me feel good? The Democrats and the Marxists not taking control of our country this fault. That would make me feel good. So. Yeah, that would probably be a good. Everyone is looking at these polls. I hate to dismiss polls, but I think there's a couple of things going on.
Starting point is 00:06:00 First of all, I don't think we've ever seen an election like this one. I have absolutely no idea what is coming. The world could literally be on fire in an hour. In an hour, we could be in, the missiles could fly. And they've been, they've been launched by these genetic hybrid. half human half giraffe nation that we've all never heard of and I wouldn't be surprised. So who knows what's going to happen in the election. Yes.
Starting point is 00:06:31 The health that those people may very well be launching missiles at any point. Yes. Why would you classify them as people? They're half, they're half people, half giraffes. You know, you're saying Hugh Raf's. Hugh Rafs should be able to. Exactly right. You know what?
Starting point is 00:06:49 I will say this. If there's ever a movie made. of this incident. No person should play the role of a haraf. Only harass should play the role of harafs. Absolutely. Absolutely. You know, I was lecturing my daughter last night because she played Olaf in a play. And I'm like, have you ever been a snowman? No, you're not a snowman. Have you ever really truly been frozen? Do you know what it's like to fall from the sky and then be rolled up and have a carrot for a nose? How dare you? How is she going to understand the specificity of the that snowman experienced its life.
Starting point is 00:07:24 She can't. She can't. So she should be canceled. She can't. And that word should be used more often. Anyway, all right. So let me compare 1948 with the year 2000. Okay?
Starting point is 00:07:40 1948, I believe, I believe the Republicans had the slogan, are you done yet. But America was not. And it didn't work out well for them. So Harry Truman was considered to be a buffoon. He was boorish to air is Truman, is what they would say. In the midterm, in 1946, Democrats lost both the House and the Senate. 2018, the GOP lost the House. The House. The rise of outright communists, 1948, the communists were dominating the Progressive Party, just like they are now. In 2020, we have the same kind of thing. Party disunity in 1948, the Dixiecrats and the progressives were going after each other.
Starting point is 00:08:40 In 2020, the never-Trumpers and the Lincoln Project. So, so far, would you agree this is parallel in many ways? sure um some ways weak but overcompetent overconfident opposition 1948 was thomas dewey big on platitudes everybody loved him supposedly
Starting point is 00:09:02 uh and he was joe biden uh you know except he wasn't in his wreck room in his basement um the vice president the incumbent uh harris truman had to fill a vacancy he went with a safe choice uh don't trump doesn't have a vacancy but he's sticking with his safe choice.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Vice President, Dewey made an abysmal choice. Earl Warren added nothing. In fact, he hated Dewey. In 2020, I don't know. It doesn't seem to be working out so far for him. Russian interference in 1948, CPUSA infiltrated the Progressive Party. Allegations against Trump in 2020, of course. The economy, 1948, excellent, particularly after the Depression in World War II.
Starting point is 00:09:55 This is the only one that really falls apart because I don't think it's going to rebound fast enough. The opposition party dissension, the conservatives in 1948 cheesed off by the Me Too candidates losing previously, Landon, Wilkie, Dewey. in 2020, Progressives cheved off because Bernie Sanders didn't get it in 16 or 2020. The race split the Dixiecrats from the Democrats, but Dixiecrats leaving cemented the black vote for the Democrats. 2020, the riots and wokeness could end up sending Democrats and independents into the Trump camp and keep GOPers from defecting from Trump.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Immigration issue concerning European refugees, 2020, same thing, but now overshadowed by COVID, the economy, an outright revolution that we're having. Age played a role in 1948. The campaign style, Give them Harry, no holds barred. Dewey was just really dull. Give him Donald. He runs out, you know, with the big shows that he does. Biden is not exactly what he used to be.
Starting point is 00:11:25 He ran against Congress in 1948. He lacerated the do-nothing Congress in 2020. Same kind of thing. In 1948, the press hated Harry S. Truman. Same. Debates. In 1948, there were. no debates.
Starting point is 00:11:43 2020, there may not be any debates. So remember, Truman is the guy holding the newspaper that says Dewey wins. They were that confident. Now there is somebody else who's saying a similar
Starting point is 00:11:59 thing. He brought up the Truman Dewey thing. But his model, the primary model is what it's called, that he came up with in 1995 and is predicted correctly all of the presidential candidates since 1995, he's giving Donald Trump a 91% chance of winning in November. He said that over the last 108 years, he ran the same
Starting point is 00:12:31 model. He takes all of the opinion polls out. He doesn't care about opinion polls. All he cares about is how excited is the base for the candidate. He says, because Biden has nothing, nothing going on for him, except the opinion polls. But when you actually talk to people, everybody's like, I don't want to vote for the guy. I mean, yeah, I'm going to vote for him, but is there anybody else? He says because of the way he performed in the early primaries is what his,
Starting point is 00:13:06 his calculation always takes into account. He says that Donald Trump is going to win handily in the electoral college and actually win with a bigger spread this time. Wow. Oh, I mean, it's not impossible. I think a lot of what you said, those things do align. I would still give him less than a 91% chance of winning the election at this point. But here it comes. Here comes.
Starting point is 00:13:37 No, look. No, no, no. I think, you know. Here it comes. He's going to rain on our parade. You're going to harsh my mellow. I got it. I'm not.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I would just, I would point out, first of all, when you have an early primary model, which is when you have those early, you know, early elections that happen before a global pandemic. And then a global pandemic happens. I do think that it's going to be tough to take historical precedent. Yeah. Yeah. On top of it. We've never had this. we've never had that i mean i think the closest we've ever come to this kind of uh situation is
Starting point is 00:14:11 is the civil war i mean i you just can't predict this at all because i don't think they're done everything has been so well coordinated that i have no idea what they have planned for the fall but they're not going to be sitting on their hands right and you know there is a i think there's i think that's the reason why people are overlooking trump right now it's this idea of of, well, his polls look terrible. Well, you know, frankly, they do look terrible. But, and they look worse than they did against Clinton. And it's not really all that close.
Starting point is 00:14:43 That being said, when has, how many things has, you know, Donald Trump even said about Joe Biden? Like, there's no passion against Joe Biden right now because no one has done anything to show him even in a negative light. Donald Trump's done, what, two campaign speeches, three campaign speeches so far. we've seen no development of this campaign. So right now what you have is people, a lot of people with a lot of passion for Donald Trump and a lot of people with a lot of passion against Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:15:16 I mean, certainly this election is going to, at its core, be a referendum on the way that Donald Trump has handled his first four years as a president. He's a big enough personality that's going to be impossible to make this election about Joe Biden entirely. But still, you know, all he has. has to do is keep it close. And once people start really thinking about this, looking at Joe Biden, watching him have these moments where he can't remember the most basic thing or pronounce the most basic word, it's going to change, I think, a little bit.
Starting point is 00:15:49 And we know that Trump brings pressure. And who knows what Joe Biden does under that sort of pressure. Do you believe that Joe Biden will be able to get away with not having a debate? I think that that's what they're going for right now. And they're trying to say all these conditions. They're very smart to do it. But do you really think at this time the most important election, this one really is. This one is.
Starting point is 00:16:16 This is the end of the road for the republic, I think. Do we really not have any debates between the two people vying for the job of running our country for the next four years? We just say, nah, we don't need a debate. Really? You know, obviously, I don't think that's the right way to approach it. But if you take yourself out of it and put yourself as a Democratic campaign aid, you do everything you could to keep these two away from each other and not on the stage at the same time. But what I'm asking you is, will the average American accept that?
Starting point is 00:16:57 Under normal circumstances, I would say no. I think the one worry you'd have if you're the Trump administration is that people, because Donald Trump is such a big personality and so many people have had their mind made up on him already there is less of a concern about what the alternative is and that's a scary thing to say but I really don't think a lot there is at least 45% of this country that sits back and says I don't care who it is
Starting point is 00:17:27 if it's not Donald Trump now there's also 40 to 45% of people who say I don't care who the other person is I must have Donald Trump So you get to a baseline pretty quickly. Those people in the middle, I think, are interesting in that one of the good things about Donald Trump being able to dominate the news cycle is that unique talent to do that more than any president in, I think, American history. I mean, he can dominate a news cycle. But it tires people out. And when you're in a situation where you have a global pandemic and all of these other things, if he looks like he's handled these things really well when it comes to November, then I think he's got a real chance.
Starting point is 00:18:07 If it looks like, if people have this impression that he's done this bad job or has been incompetent in his handling of this one big crisis he's had to face, not to mention the other ones going on, I think it's going to be really difficult. One of the reasons why, and this is separate a little bit, but it's like the whole thing about masks and taking all these precautions and not rushing to open, I understand it completely from a personal liberty standpoint. I understand it completely from the standpoint of just like, you know what, I don't think they work or whatever your personal opinion is.
Starting point is 00:18:39 From a political standpoint, I don't understand it at all. Why wouldn't you take every precaution necessary? Even if you thought it was a 1% chance it would make things better to keep this situation. If it's out of control in November, Donald Trump probably has no chance to win. So why wouldn't we do everything we possibly could if you are a person who thinks Donald Trump it would be the better option going forward to to minimize this disease. Why would you risk going out all the time? Why would you fight, you know, why would you shame people who are, who are throwing masks on and looking like ducks, like these duck masks that people are wearing around?
Starting point is 00:19:20 It's just, I don't think politically it works. Okay. We'll come back to that because I want to talk to you about the coronavirus numbers. Now it's so low. the CDC is saying we're thinking about not actually we're thinking about downgrading it and no more global pandemic. How does that narrative fit into what I'm seeing on television?

Starting point is 00:21:23 He hasn't taken any steps to do it. But he said yesterday that he's just looking to maybe peel off a few Democrats from Joe Biden. But don't laugh at Kanye being elected. I think there's a lot of people right now that be like, Like, why not? Why not? It's 2020. Why not?
Starting point is 00:21:46 It would make perfect sense, would it not? It would. By the way, we went back and found a, I did Stu Does Kanye on Stu Does America last night. And we found a clip from 2016 where I said the next president is going to be a Kardashian. We just have to hope it's Courtney. Now, at that point, I was not considering, I was not considering Kanye West in a 2020 run, which is, is very odd. I mean, he,
Starting point is 00:22:12 did he actually come out and say he was trying to peel black people off intentionally? I, in his, in his worst interview, he did not say that. Yesterday. I read that late last night. I don't know where I read it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:24 I mean, it's possible. I think he came out, I think he came out and said, you know, look, if I could peel a few people off of Joe Biden, that would be good.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Well, the bottom line is, I think it's, he was also critical of Trump and he just, he just, he's no longer a supporter. Yeah. Said he's taking the red hat off.
Starting point is 00:22:40 which now we don't have to say he's brilliant anymore, right? Like, we're past that. Can we get past that now? Can we go back to when we all thought he was insane as of two years ago? Can we get past that? I think brilliant people often look insane. That's what insane people say, Glenn, for example. This is the Glenn Beck.
Starting point is 00:23:07 All right. It's tax season still. Because why not? It's 2020. The tax debt. As I'm sure you know, got extended into July and as a result is expected to cause higher than usual rates of tax fraud being committed over the next few weeks. Cybercriminals are getting smarter all the time. Their technology is getting better.
Starting point is 00:23:31 You need comprehensive protection, especially during tax season when so much of your vital private information is being shared.

If we can't turn the economy around, the economic fallout from this coronavirus is just,
Starting point is 00:24:53 it's mind-boggling. 32% of all U.S. households have not made their full housing payments for July yet. That is stunning. About 19% of Americans made no housing payment at all during the first week of the month. 13% paid only a portion of their rent or mortgage. This is the fourth month in a row that a historically high number of households are unable to pay their housing bill on time. in full up from 30% in June 31% in May it's 32% of all US households in July we are just being devastated just devastated I want to share a Facebook post that I saw
Starting point is 00:25:43 from a couple of people Brad and Angela Davis they started this this restaurant I'm sorry what did I say it's Ashley and Brad Davis. They started this restaurant, which had been a dream of theirs. And it's called the friend and foe board game cafe. It's a little sandwich shop in Plano and Texas. And they have, you know, the usual fair. But they also have like 600 board games so people can come and play board games with a family.
Starting point is 00:26:19 I read this post, and I think there's millions that feel this way. Why do we get up in six in the morning to drive 70 miles back and forth for a 12 or 13-hour workday? Because we have no other choice. Frankly, if we had an out, we probably would have taken it by now. But all of our eggs are in this basket. In fact, the whole chicken is in this basket. We, the three owners, wear every hat. We are the general managers, the grill cooks, the bakers, the bakers, baristas, bartenders,
Starting point is 00:26:48 marketers, just to name a few. We get up every day and we take a beating. We fight tooth and nail to make it through this with no support from the government thus far. And we know there are many other businesses doing the same. With our thoughts have been focused on the business and survival for so long, I do anything for a carefree moment. Every fiber of my being is stretched to the max. But with that being said, I'm fed up, not just with our current situation. I am sick of the judgment, anger, irrational behavior, and sheer hatred I am seeing.
Starting point is 00:27:22 I'm afraid to say anything about anything because inevitably someone will disagree and spew hatred rather than having a discussion. If I don't post something, I'm labeled. If I do post something, I'm labeled. If I keep my mouth shut during a conversation, I'm labeled. If I open my mouth during a conversation, I'm labeled. Nobody really cares about what anyone else has to say. Their minds are all made up and likely based on a meme, a headline, or a one-sided source rather than an array of reputable books or are. articles. We get flack as business for remaining open and trying to bring in customers with
Starting point is 00:27:57 various incentives, even though we are following all recommended safety protocols. Nothing we do seems to be enough. We're expected to go a step further than what's required. We open at 25%. You should stay closed. We sanitize all of our games. You shouldn't let people play games. We strongly recommend masks. You should, you should not. You should make it mandatory, not by choice. Most business owners can't just throw in the towel and go find another job. It's not how it works. Oftentimes, when one is focused on, uh, to force to close their business, they lose everything because we have put everything into it. In short, please stop. Stop judging people for what they don't post. Stop judging people for what they do. Stop labeling
Starting point is 00:28:47 businesses is irresponsible for doing their best during this crap. Stop labeling. people in general. Stop reacting to wrong with another wrong. Stop hating your neighbor because they have a different worldview than you. And if you aren't sure what your worldview is, think about it, read about it. Maybe you'll be able to disagree with someone cordially if you understand the fundamental differences. Amen. That was written by Ashley. She's married to Brad, and they both happen to be on with us now. They live in Abilene, Texas. Ashley and Brad, welcome to the program. how are you? Thanks, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:29:24 We're doing good. Just excited to be on your show. Yeah, I really appreciate this opportunity. Not a problem. I know you are struggling just like everybody else, but Ashley, your Facebook post is what caught my eye. Your Facebook post, what happened to get you to snap like that and speak truth? Yes. Well, really from the time we started working to open this business, which was about three years ago, to now things have been incredibly challenging.
Starting point is 00:29:59 You know, it seems like we take one step forward and then three steps back at times. But the reason I made this post is because I just got fed up with the unrealistic expectations that I was noticing from the general public. And the realization that some people actually expect businesses to go one step further than what is even required as far as the COVID restrictions go, which is just ridiculous. I think there's some businesses who can afford to do that, for example, like keeping their dine and closed or refusing businesses, refusing business to certain people. Because they either have like a second source of income or they got a ton of money from the government. But businesses like ours just can't afford to do that. So whenever I... You guys have been...
Starting point is 00:30:42 Sorry, go ahead. I'm sorry, but you've been operating on a 60 to 80% loss every day. You need what? at least $1,000 in sales every day. Yeah, I say about $800 to $1,000, yeah. Okay. And you said in your Facebook post that the government didn't help you at all, so you didn't get the PPP loan qualification?
Starting point is 00:31:09 Correct. I mean, up to this point, we have, all we've received from the government is a $6,000 advance on the economic disaster funds, and we haven't seen anything else from that. We were actually denied. They claimed that we didn't suffer enough of a loss. So, you know, we made an appeal, and we're going through it, right? We're going through the process to try to, you know, get what we can out of that. But no, we have not seen anything from that or the PPPL yet.
Starting point is 00:31:41 So, Brad, what are you guys doing to stay open? Well, we're working our buds off. We're putting in, you know, we're putting in, you know, 13, 14-hour days at the store. We've unfortunately had to cut employee shifts way back just to save on payroll. We've been praying a whole lot. You know, we're believers, we're Christians, and so we're just having to really lean on the fact that God is good, even in difficult times. And, you know, we're just trusting in that fact and just working as hard as we can. So are you guys making it with the restaurant at all?
Starting point is 00:32:22 I mean, are you close to your $800 minimum, or is it just not even close? No, we're at this point with the further, you know, we were starting to open back up here in Texas and then the COVID numbers go back up. And, you know, they put further restrictions on us. And so we're operating at about, our revenue is about 50% of what we need it to be. I mean, we're, we're, we pretty much burnt through our reserves, personal savings to keep things afloat. And we're just at that point where it's like, gosh, we can't, if we can't figure this out, we're going to lose it all. I have been in that situation. And it is the most stressful because there's nothing you can do.
Starting point is 00:33:06 There's just nothing you can do. And when you have to lay people off and you have to make these decisions, how are you guys faring as a couple? Well, like Brad said, we're believers and we've really had to lean on the Lord during this time. And, you know, in all honesty, it's probably brought us closer together, which is a good thing. I know it doesn't always happen that way. But we really make a good team. You know, we have two girls. One of them is two years old.
Starting point is 00:33:38 One of them is eight months old. And so we actually alternate days, you know, and Brad will go one day to the store and I'll have the girls all day. And then we'll switch and we kind of go back and forth. you know, sometimes we bring the girls up to the store with us, and so we just kind of do whatever it takes. Ashley, it's interesting looking at your post, because you could definitely sense the issues that you're having with the business and the frustrations with the business, but the post is really more focused on how people are treating each other. Why did you focus on that? Well, I think, you know, there's a lot of things that happened at the same time in our country, and I think, though they're not necessarily, related, people are entangling them together and just really acting hatefully towards one another.
Starting point is 00:34:25 And it's coming out, you know, on our social media posts and the decisions that we make. And so that's why I focused on that because that's kind of exacerbated everything. Brad, are you worried that you started a board game cafe because that's going to cause something where, you know, people want to kill each other over a game of Monopoly. You may be increasing the stress. Yeah. You got, there's certain games that we probably want to tell customers, like, look, if you're stressed out, don't play this game, it's just going to make it work. So what are you guys doing?
Starting point is 00:35:04 I know you guys are now renting board games, which is a good idea. You're also delivering food. You're also making food for nursing homes, et cetera, et cetera. Is that right? Yeah, we have a. Sorry, go ahead, Brad. You got this one. Oh, that's all right.
Starting point is 00:35:24 That's all good. Yeah, so we implemented a game rental system since a lot of people weren't comfortable coming into the store to play games. We said, hey, let's make our games rentable, and people can rent a game, bring it home and play it. And then we're doing to donate a meal program, which allows people to purchase games. I'm not purchased games. Purchase meals.
Starting point is 00:35:42 And then we deliver it to first responders, nursing homes, health care workers. It means a stressful time for them. And it's a way for us to generate a little. bit of revenue and then also, you know, get some food out there to some people who have a lot of other stuff going on and may not want to have to worry about lunch or dinner. Okay, so how do people get involved in that? If people wanted to donate a meal to somebody, you're not asking for a handout. You're saying, we're going to charge you for something and we're going to do something good with it. So how do people get involved in that?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Right. You can go to our website. It's friend and foe, BGC. and there's actually a link on there where you can click on donate a meal. I click on it, pay for the meal that goes into our system, and then we compile these certain numbers. We contact fire departments, police departments, hospitals, nursing homes. It says, hey, we've got meals. We'd like to donate them to you guys, and then we prep them and deliver them. Wow.
Starting point is 00:36:43 I mean, only in Texas or in a small town in America, would you be delivering meals to, police officers and the police officers would take them at this point. Thank you for that. So it is friend and foe, BGC.com. Thank you guys so much. And I just, I wish you the very best. Can I say one more thing real quick?
Starting point is 00:37:17 Sure. Yeah. When things calm down, you need to, bring you and then you could call like Sean Hannity, Ben Shapiro and say, I want to challenge you guys to a board game. Let's go to Friend Info. Okay. All right. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:37:34 I don't know if I'm playing a board game or any game with Ben Shapiro. I will lose. That's a good point. Friend and foe, BGC. That's Board Game Cafe. Friend Info, BGC.com. Go find it and help this company out by helping our police out and our first responders.

As if that wasn't bad enough, he's 62 and been living with severe pain for several years now. He tried all the usual stuff to get rid of it. But after a while, he just gave up. I can tell you from personal experience, that's what you.
Starting point is 00:38:21 what I did and millions of Americans feel like I just can't do anything about it. And there is nothing worse than being in pain that you're determined to beat and you just can't beat it year after year after year. All right. You don't have to live that way. Gary didn't. He heard about relief factor. He hadn't tried anything in a while.
Starting point is 00:38:44 He'd just been living with his pain. He decided to give it a shot. I mean, what could it hurt? He tells me, within a few days, he started to notice. that the pain was subsiding, and with it a few weeks, it was gone. Gary got his life back, and so could you. Relief Factor is not a drug. It was developed by doctors, and 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more.

Starting point is 00:44:37 I was born in Everett, was raised in Mount Vernon, and I don't know what happened to Seattle. I mean, it is gone full-fledged, crazy Marxist. And they're starting to eat themselves, which it couldn't happen to a nicer group of people. I'm going to start with the city councilwoman that we talked about yesterday. and how she's now in a feud with the mayor. Also, there's been a brave soul in Seattle that decided, I'm not doing this and walked and released some information about a new whiteness class that all white people have to take.
Starting point is 00:45:20 The city won't talk about anything, but we have the documents. We have two people to talk about this coming up at a second. is amazing. So workers of the world unite and go someplace else. While we take care of business as capitalists in 60 seconds. This is the Glenn

He's a contributing editor of the City Journal,
Starting point is 00:47:23 the director of the Center on Wealth and Poverty. And I wanted to start with him about this crazy, socialist Seattle Council member that vows to replace capitalism with socialism. Welcome to the program, Christopher. It's great to be with you. So who is this Seattle City Councilwoman? Shama Sahuant has actually been in office since 2014, and she's a member of the Socialist Alternative Party.
Starting point is 00:47:56 It's an international Marxist-Lennon, its political party, with the goal of overthrowing the capitalist system and installing worldwide socialism. And in 2014, she was seen as almost a kind of token socialist who was running for city council on this radical platform. And the moderates were in such firm control. People said, you know, this would be a fun thing to have in the city of Seattle, the most progressive city, to have an actual socialist. And for many years, she was really relegated to the sidelines of political power. but in the last few months, she has become the de facto leader of the city council and really the de facto political leader of Seattle.
Starting point is 00:48:36 And she endorsed the Chaz-chop occupation. She's pushing legislation now and is one vote away from cutting the police department by 50%. And she is just passed an Amazon tax. And she's not going to stop and she's made clear that if you resist her, she's going to send violent thugs to your house. to your neighborhood and to your city to get what she wants. I want to play just this audio quickly from her. Here she was a couple of days ago in Seattle talking about Amazon.
Starting point is 00:49:10 I have a message for Jeff Bezos and his class. If you attempt again to overturn the Amazon tax, working people will go all out in the thousands to defeat you. And we will not stop there because you see we are fighting for far more than this tax. We are preparing the ground for a different kind of society. And if you, Jeff Bezos, want to drive that process forward by lashing out against us in our modest demands, then so be it. Because we are coming for you and your rotten system.
Starting point is 00:49:47 We are coming to dismantle this deeply oppressive, racist, sexist, violent, utterly bankrupt system of capitalism, this police state. We cannot and will not stop until we overthrow it. and replace it with a world based instead on solidarity, genuine democracy, and equality, a socialist world. Thank you. She is a moron, but why is this being tolerated in Seattle? I mean, I grew up in Seattle. I just don't know what has happened. Are that many people really so blind as to what is happening?
Starting point is 00:50:33 Do they really want to throw the capitalist system out? You know, it's actually, I think yes and no. There are certainly her diehard supporters. When she was running for office last year, there was a huge campaign against her, but she had redshirted socialists on every corner of her district. They had bust in from all over the country that were pushing her propaganda and,
Starting point is 00:50:56 encouraging people to vote. And she's winning the vote. And that's the thing that I tell people. If you vote for this, you can't be surprised when she actually wants to do it. And the problem in Seattle is that I don't think so on really reflects the majority opinion. But the problem is that all of the activist organizations, the political organizations, all of the kind of institutionalized power is moved further and further left. And they purge anyone who's in the center and keep going until you end up with someone like Shamahawant. She is accused by the mayor now of organizing and sending all of those people to the mayor's house, which quite honestly, I mean, good.
Starting point is 00:51:43 I'm glad they were there. She didn't care about the people in Seattle on Capitol Hill. She cared only when those kind of people came to her neighborhood. But did she organize that? I know she went and she spoke there. And that was clearly a threat to the mayor of Seattle. It was. I mean, she led the march.
Starting point is 00:52:04 She spoke out against the mayor by name. And then some of her kind of black-shirted thugs spray-painted the mayor's gate to her front house and left direct threats against the mayor spray-painted on the street in front of her house. So the intimidation is real. And it's really been happening the last few years in Seattle. If you are a journalist, a tech employee, a political figure, if you speak out against the most far-left politicians on the Seattle City Council, they're paramilitaries.
Starting point is 00:52:40 So Antifa-affiliated activists will come after you. They'll spray paint your driveway. They'll put posters around your house. They'll denounce you on social media. it's really gotten to the point where there is a real and credible threat to anyone who stands against them. Is anyone getting sick of that in Seattle? They are, but the calculus is very challenging. So if you are, let's say, an employee at Amazon, a computer programmer, or you work at Microsoft,
Starting point is 00:53:12 if you go along with the crowd or even just tacitly accept the crowd, there's no price to pay. But if you stand out against them, you are really risking potentially catastrophic damage to your reputation. You're risking people coming after your source of employment. You're risking ostracism. How does Amazon and Microsoft not see that they are going to be eaten by these people? Well, you know, Microsoft is very lucky in that they had actually set up their headquarters many years ago in a suburb about 20, miles away from Seattle. So they're actually quite safe. Their city council of Redmond is very amenable to Microsoft interest. But Amazon has really hit this inflection point where they're realizing
Starting point is 00:54:01 that the kind of trendy move to establish the downtown corporate campus is now having some blowback because they're at the mercy of these radical city councils. And Amazon has done something very interesting. They've pretty much stopped any new employment within the city of Seattle. They've signaled that they're not going to renew any of their leases for buildings they don't own in the downtown core. And they're potentially shifting 10 to 25,000 jobs away from Seattle into the surrounding suburbs, really as a kind of safety valve maneuver because they can really see what's coming down the line with the city council. Well, I can tell you, Spray painting on the mayor's driveway.
Starting point is 00:54:47 No justice, no sleep, bitch. Seems like a direct threat. And Seattle, you are in for some sleepless nights. If I lived in Seattle, I'd be looking for a real estate agent. I don't know how, quite honestly, Chris, you're doing it. But thank God somebody is. Appreciate the update. Let me go now to Dr.
Starting point is 00:55:15 Carlin Borosanko. Carlin is an organizational psychologist, Forbes contributor. She was, and I think still, I don't know what she would label herself. Who cares about labels? But she used to be on the liberal side, left side, and she saw things going out of control and decided, well, I want to listen to the other side. And she did. She has a very open mind.
Starting point is 00:55:41 But she is the one that, found the white privilege test that she's going to be giving me on Friday. I have a feeling that's a test I'm going to flunk. But she also has looked into what is happening in Seattle with their whiteness training and is here to tell us all about it. We're going to talk to her in one minute. Stand by. So around the Becker State, you know, I don't trouble myself with online shopping.
Starting point is 00:56:14 I mean, you understand. No. I wouldn't dirty my fingers with something so pedestrian as a computer. Well, I'm not entirely certain what my username and password are, so, you know, why bother? My darling wife seems to all of that, and a fine job she does of it, too. She uses this thing called honey. It ends up saving us a tremendous amount of money that I like to bathe in every night.
Starting point is 00:56:40 I love saving money. Honey is a shopping online tool that will help that coupon clipper. You know, my grandmother used to be the one that would cut the clipons. My mom did as well. Now you don't actually have to, you don't have to have a mother, no, or a grandmother. Stop with that system of oppression. Right now, you can find an algorithm that will find the best promo codes and discounts. and who loves you more?

You can apply these savings to your cart when you're ready to check out. All you do is you just hit the little honey icon, and it will go and look for the passwords of the promo codes that will give you the biggest amount of savings and applies it.

Starting point is 00:57:42 including Walmart, DoorMet DoorDash, Home Depot, Lulu Lemon, Macy's, and a whole lot more. Honey has found people like you over $2 billion in savings.

So Carlin Borosanko is an organizational psychologist. She works with individuals and organizations all over the world through her practice, which is called Zen workplace, to help them create amazing work experiences by combining organizational and positive psychology with mindfulness techniques. This is actually something that I would actually probably do in my own business, but I would hate myself for it just because of the description of it. It just seems so.
Starting point is 00:59:08 I don't know, earthy. You know what I'm saying, Carlin? I'm sorry. Yeah. So you are here, and you're going to explain this whiteness training that is happening. only for white people in Seattle. If you work for the Seattle city government and you're white, you have to take this training.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Yes, exactly. And it looks insane. It is insane. So what happened is about a month ago, I got an email from an employee from the city of Seattle, and they're going to be leaving their job because they think all this is crazy. And essentially, it was an email from the city asking all of their white employees to spend a vacation
Starting point is 00:59:51 day that had already been previously scheduled in this witness training that was specifically for white employees. And they have a whole separate training track for people of color. So what is, if I'm a Seattle City employee and I show up, what is this training? What do they do? Well, essentially, they go through all, well, first you have to, of course, confess your internalized racial superiority as a white person, because that is just not in dispute at all. And if you come to the training and say, well, hang on, I don't actually think I have internalized racial superiority. Then you're expressing cognitive dissonance, which is further proof of your internalized racial superiority. So you have to go through the process of confessing your sins
Starting point is 01:00:37 first, and then you have to do, you have to practice self-talk and affirmations that affirm your complicity in racism. Okay, so we're hunting for witches now in Seattle. well it's not even hunting for witch wishes because if you're white then we found you that's it you are a witch well unless there is actually one out in this if you do not identify as white if you have like a rachel dolazal moment and identify as black even though you're white then you don't have to do the training you can opt out oh my gosh i would be a black man in a heartbeat I would be I you know I'm feeling my color my inner color coming on to me really strongly right now Carlin I I'm I'm beginning to believe I am black they'll let you get away with that
Starting point is 01:01:34 yeah it's actually in the email that city well it's actually in the email that the city sent out to their employees that this is for all people who identify as white so that seems like a pretty easy out to me Wow. Okay, so we get in. Can you take us through some of these things? Well, I mean, so I'm basically, I'm going off of some of the documents that actually your previous guest got from the city, Christopher. And so some of the things that they're talking about in these trains are things like, you know, white people have to let go of things that might make them comfortable in the work environment. Like any expectations of their emotional safety or even their physical safety, white people, should not expect that their physical safety should be protected in the work environment.
Starting point is 01:02:19 They also, they also go through all of the... Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, how is this happening from a group of people that needed a cry room in college? How is, how is this I don't feel safe anywhere being translated into, now I have a right to feel safe, but you don't? It sounds like revenge. Well, I think that that's exactly what it is. But the reality, Glenn, is this material has actually been around for a very long time. So one of the documents that the city of Seattle is using is this document that is 10 years old that talks about the attributes of a white supremacist culture in organizations. And so this training is not new. It's just had a really hefty resurgence in the past couple of months. So what? What do you mean when I have to confess, do you sit around and they go from person to person, and then you have to say how you were complicit?
Starting point is 01:03:27 And is there a right answer on that that is acceptable to people? Well, the only acceptable answer in any of these circumstances is to bend the knee and confess your sin of being a white supremacist. And so for other examples of things they're talking about in this training are things like our white, employees speaking up and contributing ideas in the workplace, that's a white supremacist organization. Are they, well, Glenn, let me ask you this. You have a staff, right? You people that work for you? So, do you have some sort of hierarchy, like an organizational chart?
Starting point is 01:04:05 I want to say no, but yes. Yeah, white supremacist. Yeah. That is a white supremacist organization. Now, do you expect people to meet deadlines? I want to say no, but yes. I'm such a hater. White supremacy right there.
Starting point is 01:04:23 So how does the city of Seattle get away with that when they have a hierarchy and they expect people to meet deadlines? Well, you know, it's funny. So I recently read part of the book, White Fragility, and if anyone has not read that book, let me just save you the trouble. It's basically Robin DeAngelo confessing her own racism for the entire book. That's what it is. So when you confess your racism, it absolves you from the racism. So the city of Seattle is essentially confessing that, yes, our organization is engaged in white supremacy. And through the act of their actions, they are absolved.
Starting point is 01:05:04 Okay. Carlin, will you hold on for just a second? Because I want to ask you, I think we should go to these corporations and these cities and say specifically, specifically, what are your crimes? I want to know your crimes. I want to know specifics on what you as a corporation have done.
Starting point is 01:05:31 Lay it all out there, baby. I'd like to hear your response to that. So there is nothing more important to you than keeping your family safe if you're a, you know, if you're a normal person, I mean, if you're part of the Manson family, I can't help you. But with all the craziness that is going on the world, things can be a little bit shaky,
Starting point is 01:05:52 and I have a feeling they're only going to get worse in the coming months. Please, please think about having home security. Now, I know because I've had home security, you know, for a long time, and it can be complicated. There's contracts. It can be really expensive. That's not the case with SimplySafe.

Starting point is 01:06:55 plus a special afterward. You don't want to miss it. Dr. Carlin Borosanko. She's an organizational psychologist, Forbes contributor. She was in her knitting group, believe it or not. You don't look like a knitter, Carlin. But I don't know what that means even. I'm sorry for that stereotype.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Oh, my gosh. I'm so guilty today. Don't stereotype me, Glenn. You're so oppressive. I know. I know. So you were in your knitting community and you saw the left just starting to just hammer knitters that disagreed online. And you said, you know, I want to get out of my own little box here. And you went to a Trump rally, not that you necessarily agree with Donald Trump, but you went, you listen, you have an open mind. Were you ever for this kind of stuff? Were you ever into the, this stuff, like they're doing in Seattle, where you have to admit that you're a racist to be, you know, to be able to be, I guess, whole or recognized.
Starting point is 01:08:07 Did you ever believe in any of this language? Oh, no, I never believed in any of this. And the thing of it is, is that diversity in inclusion trainings have existed in the HR space for a really long time. And there are actually great trainers out there that don't believe in this stuff at all. But this has really made a resurgence in the last year. It's become a lot more common in organizations. And listen, we can make fun of the city of Seattle, and we should, given some of these documents. But the reality is that, Glenn, I have emails from people all over the country
Starting point is 01:08:39 whose organizations are implementing training exactly like this. And some of the biggest organizations in the world, I actually just got an email from someone who works at a Fortune five company just the other day that are doing the same thing. I know I know several people that work in Seattle for one of the big tech companies, one of the very big tech companies. They're doing the same thing. They're doing exactly the same thing. So why can't we go to those, and would this make a difference, go to those companies and demand that they issue their sins in front of the entire world because all they're doing is placating, giving money, thinking they're going to get off
Starting point is 01:09:28 the hook, which they're not, and making things worse for everybody else. Well, I think, I think we can, and we see so many companies that are coming out and doing that, but the thing of it is, because the admission of the sin absolves you of the sin, that that actually isn't going to fix anything. And you hit on a point there that I think is really important for people to understand. When I speak to executives of companies that are doing these trainings, they don't care about this stuff. They don't buy into this stuff at all. The only reason that they're doing these trainings is to say to the mob, we did the training, can you please not come after us now? That's the only reason. And does the mob accept that? I mean, they're going, they're, they're Marxists.
Starting point is 01:10:13 They're going to, their job is to take over your country or your company or destroy. your company. Let me go over a couple of things. The internalized racial oppression. They say perfectionism, individualism, imposition, arrogance, paternalism, silence, intellectualism, control, violence, comfort, appropriation, cognitive dissidents, objectivity, and anti-blackness are all internalized racial superiority. What the, what the hell to, can you help us through this list? Yeah, so let's just take perfectionism as an example, because professionism has always been one of their, their chief kind of objections to the white supremacist culture. When they're talking about perfectionism, they're essentially talking about people completing their jobs or completing their tasks with a
Starting point is 01:11:11 high level of quality. That's what it is. And so when, if you're expected to have a certain level of output and you meet that, then that's a white supremacist expectation. Or take silence, for instance. I mean, what do they say all the time? Silence is violence. So what they're saying is that they expect white people to speak up in the face of their own white supremacy or comfort. Again, we touched on that too. White people should not expect to be comfortable either emotionally or physically within their workspace. Okay, so wait a minute, wait a minute. Silence equals death. But if If we speak out, that's also considered racist. Is it not?
Starting point is 01:11:54 Yes, it is. Unless you are speaking out to confess your racism, and then you're good. Can I ask you a question? What will the companies be like to work for? What happens to the teamwork? If I feel like I'm always going to be a racist, I'm, I can't, you know, I'm afraid to speak out and not to speak out, there is no teamwork that is going to be happening at any of these places.
Starting point is 01:12:26 Glenn, you absolutely hit the nail on the head. So one of the things I do with organizations does I actually go in and I measure team resiliency to help improve it, create better high-performing teams. And one of the key components of team resiliency is that team connection or to use another kind of HR buzzword, the psychological safety that the team has. Does the team trust one another? Are they communicating openly and transparently? Are they able to engage in?
Starting point is 01:12:49 productive conflict. This training is directly contradictory to meeting any of those goals. So, you know, I bet you my hippie Zen training is sounding a little bit more appealing now that we've compared it with like agility training. No, I did grow up in the West Coast. I did grow up in Washington State. So there's enough hippie in me that I understand those things. But I can't, I can't get on board on this because this, wouldn't this also lead to an absolute inferiority complex among white people if we actually took these things to heart and did them and were constantly confessing sins that we had nothing to do with? You know, there was an article on Medium that made the rounds.
Starting point is 01:13:38 I want to say about a month ago, that it was an article appealing to white woman not to commit suicide due to their white guilt. And so what you're saying is very serious. People are internalizing this. They are in a constant state of guilt and a constant state of feeling as though there's nothing I can do to account for this awful sin. And that's actually part of the insidious nature of white fragility, the book by Robin DiAngelo, because she essentially says in the book that you will never be able to fix this. It will be a lifelong battle.
Starting point is 01:14:09 The only thing you can do is sit in your discomfort and pay people like Robin DeAngelo to yell at you about how racist you are. and that's all you can hope to contribute to solving this problem. It's horrible. It's awful. Carlin, where are we headed? And how do we stop this? You know, I think that the biggest thing that I've been saying to people is you have to speak out.
Starting point is 01:14:33 People have got to start speaking up. They've got to start expressing their objections because imagine if everyone in every organization that was doing this type of training that had a problem with it spoke up. Well, statistically, that's going to be at least half the company. They can't fire half the company. People have got to start asking why this is wrong, you know? Nobody's going to do it. Nobody's going to do it.
Starting point is 01:14:58 You know, scriptures talk about, and in those days, men's hearts will fail them. I think we've misunderstood that. That just means, I think, it'll be a time of profound cowardice. I mean, look at how cowardly we all are. because we don't want our stuff. We don't want to be, you know, we don't want it taken from us. We don't want to lose our job. And I completely understand that.
Starting point is 01:15:24 But it has to change. We are going down the same road, almost, almost exactly of 1984 or national socialism in Germany. It's the same thing. I agree. And Glenn, the thing of it is, is what we see over and over again is the people who are are able to defend themselves from this nonsense are the people who are speaking up, who refuse to give in, who refuse to bend the knee. They may go through a little temporary pain. You may lose your job. You may lose friends. Your business may lose clients. But on the other side
Starting point is 01:16:01 of that, there is a freedom that comes with speaking up that I really wish more people understood. Harlan, thank you so much. I'm so glad you're on. I'm so glad you're on our side. but well do we know that because are you going to take this white whiteness test tomorrow is that going to happen oh i'm fully expecting to fail yeah it's it's going to happen what are the odds of me passing this garland i think they're pretty slim glad if i'm he's so white i even think he's a problem and i you know i'm your own over side i mean i know that i do look like a marshmallow uh I mean, and I openly admit, I'm the whitest white guy you've ever met, but I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing. Would you pass it, Carlin?
Starting point is 01:16:53 No, I wouldn't either. I definitely wouldn't pass it because not only am I white, but I'm a woman who's speaking out against this, so I also have cognitive dissonance about my own racism. Oh, my gosh. So you'll play the role of, I mean, you'll explain to me exactly how bad I am because of these things in the, you know, in the new world speak. I am going to channel my inner Robin DiAngelo just for you, Glenn. I may even curl my hair to look just like her. It can be great.
Starting point is 01:17:24 All right. Thank you so much. Dr. Carlin Borosanko, a great friend of the show.

Stu has a special that he is doing. his power hour, which could, you might, I'm just saying, only one will be the designated driver, and it's not going to be Stu. No, it's going to be a mess by the end.
Starting point is 01:18:26 There's absolutely no question about it. And our 100th episode right before that. So it's going to be quite a big day on the Blaze. Right. And also, the HD version all fixed, the sink and everything is all fixed on the special that we did, restoring hope from the Standing Rock Ranch. That is also available. It was posted late last night.
Starting point is 01:18:49 The HD version, it is, it's stunning. And I urge you to watch it. I saw the results last night of the people who have been watching it. I mean, it's two hours, and we're not losing anybody along the way. It's crazy how this is connecting with people. And I'm glad that it is. Also, you will find on Blaze TV, a special we did last night, that I want to go through in about 10 minutes from now. Last night, we showed you the coup, the coup against Donald Trump and the coup against our own nation.
Starting point is 01:19:29 It is crazy what is happening, but it is well documented, and it's, I think you're going to be reading about this. Your friends are going to be reading about this and be shocked. when it comes out. How come I haven't heard about any of this? It's the deep state diversion. That episode is available now on demand as well from last night, and we're going to take you through that, so you're not surprised,
Starting point is 01:19:55 and you can explain it to your friends. It is one of the most insidious things we have ever had to report on. That is coming up in just a few minutes. Also available now, blazedtv.com slash Glenn. And promo code, fight the mob. So I want to tell you about Yvonne. She lives in California. She is finding more and more that she would wake up in the morning in pain.
Starting point is 01:20:25 She would work all day and feel the pain. Then she would go to bed still feeling the pain. Her husband was the same way. They tried potential solution after potential solution. Everything let them down. At the end of the day, they were still in. pain. Finally, Yvonne heard about relief factor while listening to somebody. She said he's charming, he's handsome, he's very, very smart. Maybe it was Dennis Prager, but I think it was me. She decided
Starting point is 01:20:58 to give it a try because she said, I don't have anything to lose here except my pain. Not too long after they both began to take it, Yvonne and her husband noticed some things changing. All of a sudden they weren't waking up in pain anymore. Then they weren't going to bed anymore. I mean, in pain, they were going to bed. All of a sudden, they found themselves with a livable life again. Relief factor, it's not a drug, but developed by doctors, 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more because it works for them.

Starting point is 01:21:55 I'm glad you're here. New study links virtue signaling to dark triad traits. Now, this is a new study that has just come out. Being accused of virtual signaling might sound nice to the uninitiated, but if you spend much time on social media, you know that it's actually an accusation of insincerity. Virtue signalers are essentially phonies, show-offs, people who adopt opinions and postures solely to garner praise and sympathy, or whose good deeds are tainted by their need for everyone to see just how good they are. Now, new research looking into the consequences and predictors of admitting signals of victimhood and virtue
Starting point is 01:22:42 has now been published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. The conclusion, psychopathic, manipulative, narcissistic people are more frequent signallers of virtuous victimhood. The so-called dark triad personality traits, Machiavellianism, narcissism, and being a psychopath lead to characteristics like self-promotion, emotional callousness,
Starting point is 01:23:11 duplicity and tendency to take advantage of others. And treated as a composite, the dark triad traits, were significant predictors in virtuous victim signaling. So in other words, you have deep psychological problems if you virtue signaling. What's interesting is they say that this is the best way to be able to get people to give you stuff. if you are signaling you are a victim and you claim that they are the victimizer and you use all the tricks of the trade of Marxism, they say this is the best way to actually have people transfer money to you. All right. Here's something that's not weak.
Starting point is 01:24:05 How about saving a thousand dollars a month? How about no millionaires and billionaires? How about that? That's not bad. It's not bad. I've got a couple words down. All right. All right.
Starting point is 01:24:17 How about American financing? American financing is only working for millionaires and billionaires. Okay. Actually, it's not. It's working for everybody who would call. And if you have a mortgage, let's say, Bernie, on one of your homes. I mean, how many homes do you have? I have 14 homes.
Starting point is 01:24:34 Most of them are 45,000 square feet. Okay. And do you have loans on any of them? I stole all the money to pay for all of them. They're all paid off. Okay, so, all right, so they're all paid off if you're Bernie Sanders, but most of us still have a mortgage. If you have a mortgage that's more than 4% you're paying too much,
Starting point is 01:24:55 you can save hundreds of dollars, if not thousands of dollars, at American financing 800906 2440, 800, 906, 2440. It's Americanfinancing.net. Do it now. Of entertainment program. All right. in the city of Los Angeles, you can deface anything. You can deface, I mean, statues, things that you don't like,
Starting point is 01:25:59 parks that you don't like, anything can be defaced, except for a mural that is on the street that says Black Lives Matter. Now, we know this because there is a charge of this couple that went out and painted over the B and the L, I think of Black Lives Matter. And they have been charged now with a hate crime. With a hate crime. Pull down statues deface anything you want.
Starting point is 01:26:34 That's not a hate crime. That's not even a crime. But if you paint over the mural of Black Lives Matter, that's a hate crime. Hey, Stu, guess who backed the candidate for that prosecutor? the district attorney. Guess who got that person elected? Who? Let me guess. George Soros?
Starting point is 01:26:56 Yes. I mean, there's only like 12 people, and they all work for George Soros. Well, whenever you ask a question like that, I know it's either George Soros or Woodrow Wilson. I know those are the only two possible answers. This is the Glenn Beck program. Really important information coming your way here in just a second from our show last night where we exposed the coup, uh,
Starting point is 01:27:24 in some new information that is just unbelievable, really, truly unbelievable. All right. First, when shaving went mainstream, uh, it, it, it went that way for a while, which stops us from having those,
Starting point is 01:27:38 you know, I call them, I don't know, those outdoor, those, they call them like Mormon beards. You know, those beards that all the Mormons had,
Starting point is 01:27:44 like in the 1800s? Mm-hmm. I'm glad shaving, uh, kind of came in. And then, it went trendy and gimmicky and now we're all spending too much money on 800 different blades and and and shaving creams and soaps and palm and all of this stuff get rid of all the gimmicky
Starting point is 01:28:03 stuff spend a lot less money uh and buy one product shave secret shave secret is is just an essential oil that you put into your hands you rub it into your face and then you shave it will give you the cleanest, closest shave you have had. And you don't need any special razors or anything else. This is the secret from the kings. When the kings were shaved way back in the day, they would have a special blend of proprietary essential oils. And they would have them rubbed into their face. Oh, yes, shave me. Shave me, peasant. And you didn't have the shave bumps. You didn't, you know, it didn't have the irritation or the ingrown hairs. This is for men and women, and it's available regionally at H.E.B.
Starting point is 01:28:54 It's also available at Wegmans, the best grocery store in America, I believe. And Amazon. You can also go to shavesecret.com and use the promo code back, and you'll receive a discount there. But you'll find it in the, you know, the aisle of Wegman or H.E.B. And other places. Also, on Amazon. and it is a little teeny bottle, go get it and see the different
Starting point is 01:29:21 shave secret will make for your legs, ladies, or men, who am I to judge, shavesecret.com? Use the promo code back. All right, I want to go over a little bit of this coup, and I think that's the only thing that you can call this. what happened during the Obama administration to Donald Trump and his staff and is still going on is a coup. And the evidence that is coming out is astonishing. But you're not hearing about any of it because coronavirus, statues, they're burning down a city, all of this stuff.
Starting point is 01:30:17 And it's all coordinated, I believe, by the same people. and if it's not coordinated by the same people in Washington, it is like one or two steps away. All right. You have to understand this, and you have to be able to explain this to your friends. Now, I did a special on this last night. We'll probably go over it with another bigger chalkboard that is coming because all of these things that we put together on looking at the impeachment and everything else. All of it now is coming out. and you're going to see this come out from Attorney General Barr and the final
Starting point is 01:30:58 investigatory report here. It better be in the next month or two because this has to be cleaned up and solved, especially before the election. Now, the reason why I say that is, did you even know that they tried to impeach the Attorney General last week? Did you even know that, Stu? Um, the Democrats, the Democrats filed impeachment papers. They tried to impeach the attorney general last week.
Starting point is 01:31:31 Now, why? Why? Because they've always loved this guy in the past. Joe Biden talked him up. Everybody said, oh, he was fair. He was honest. He could work with both sides. Now all of a sudden, not so much. And why is that? Because Joe Biden and many people in the Democratic Party and in the deep state, wait until you hear the information that we have now on the intelligence community. It is the most egregious plot of an outgoing administration. And I hate to use this, but this is the accurate word, traitors to the Constitution of the United States that are in our intelligence community and our justice department. It is a coup that they have orchestrated.
Starting point is 01:32:26 Now, I want to use General Flynn as the reason, as a way to tie all these things together. Because General Flynn, still, I was trying to remember yesterday, we thought originally General Flynn was guilty, right? We were not fans of General Flynn at the beginning. Well, if you remember, the big thing, you know, we didn't. know what happened behind the scenes, but the big issue was he was removed from the Trump administration, not because of anything he did with the FBI, but because he lied to Mike Pence, as both Mike Pence and Donald Trump both said publicly. That was really the issue. When it came
Starting point is 01:33:01 to the actual conversation with Russia, you know, it was probably not a good idea, I think, was our take, but also didn't seem to be overtly illegal in any way. And the other part of his issue with, you know, things like Turkey and stuff, those were bigger questions. Correct. Okay. So, and I had George Papadopoulos on last night. Yeah. And I remember thinking this isn't a big deal, but it seems smarmy.
Starting point is 01:33:33 Yeah. Right? Yeah. I think that was kind of the thought initially. And that was not, it was also kind of the defense in some, in some circles of the Trump administration. And then, like, here's a low-level guy. And sure, he went over.
Starting point is 01:33:44 and had some meetings, but, you know, it was, it was, you know, you can't hold Trump responsible for that. Let me tell you what we have now. And the problem is, is all of this has come out in dribs and drabs over the last couple of years. And so you didn't know what to do with it. It's, it's like looking at a puzzle and trying to figure out what that puzzle is going to look like when you only see like five pieces. You need more pieces. Let me give you this example. The only reason why we knew about Susan Rice's involvement is this is because of Senator Grassley.
Starting point is 01:34:20 He wrote a letter to Susan Wright, Rice, inquiring about a really weird email that she sent to herself as she was leaving the Oval Office on inauguration day. The last time she was going to be in the Oval Office, she left, and before the transfer of power, she wrote herself an email, and I want to reread it. This is what she wrote to herself. President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the intelligence and law enforcement communities by the book. The president stressed he is not asking about, initiating, or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective.
Starting point is 01:35:02 He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book. Now, what is she saying? here. She's saying the president didn't do anything wrong. He didn't ask anyone to do anything. He let law enforcement do what they were supposed to do. He didn't want to influence. Well, we didn't know what the context was. When Grassley sent that out, he's like, what is this about? What did you do? Well, we didn't know that all of it was about spying on General Flynn. The document that we got on from the FBI was its closing communication regarding general Flynn and the date of that was January 4th 2017 the very next day Susan Rice Joe Biden Peter struck and Obama are in the Oval
Starting point is 01:35:58 Office and they they look at the FBI they he saw the day before that they are closing the investigation because, and I'm quoting the FBI, General Flynn is no longer a viable candidate. The FBI is closing this investigation because he, they couldn't find anything. Couldn't find anything. So the very next day, Obama calls his team in and he says, all right, what are we going to do? Now, we have handwritten notes now. from Peter Struck. He's not on, you know, Donald Trump's side or General Flynn's side. So these are his handwritten notes.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Biden is in the meeting and he brings up the Logan Act as a way to go after Flynn. Now, wait a minute. The FBI just said there's nothing. We're stopping the investigation. So why did Obama call this meeting? Obama was trying to stop General Flynn. So any suggestions? Biden says, yes, let's use the Logan Act.
Starting point is 01:37:13 The Logan Act has, nobody's never been charged with the Logan Act. It came out in like the early 1800s because people could walk into, you know, England and say, I'm here representing the president of the United States. They're like, oh, okay, who are you? Well, just trust me on this. I'm George Washington. Well, that's against the law. and because we had to stop people from just representing us,
Starting point is 01:37:38 because there wasn't phone or communication like we have now, we needed someone. But nobody's ever been charged on this. They used it to try to charge General Flynn because he had talked to a Russian ambassador. Well, he was the incoming NSA director. So this is normal that he talked about it. So they're trying to get General Flynn on something.
Starting point is 01:38:04 Now, keep this in mind. This is Biden's idea. Now, the FBI closed the case, and that's why, according to Peter Strzuck's notes, Obama says, all right, make sure, this is a quote, make sure you look into things and put the right people on it. Now, what does that mean? The right people. And I thought you just said that everything was done by the book, and the president never ordered anyone. to do anything. Well, he obviously did. So why was he, why was he going after General Flynn? Well, he had been going after General Flynn since 2014. Do you remember why General Flynn was
Starting point is 01:38:53 fired as the head of the DIA, Defense Intelligence Agency? Do you remember? Why Obama fired him? Obama fired him. They said it was because of temperament issues. They just had different temperaments. That's not why he was fired. He was fired because he openly spoke two words, radical Islam. Because of radical Islam, he said that we were in a global war against radical Islam and its allies that did not sit well with President Obama, and that's why he was fired. At that time, they started to try to dig up. up dirt to destroy the credibility of Michael Flynn. This is 2015.
Starting point is 01:39:45 They started paying Christopher Steele, the author of the debunked steel dossier, to significantly compile what amounted to. And I'm quoting, salacious opposition research on Flynn. This is, this is back in 2014, 2015. Then when he joins the Trump team, they know they have to. stop him they have to stop him so he makes this phone call now the only reason why you would know about this phone call is because you you saw that there was a an American calling somebody who was on our FISA list that was overseas the ambassador to Russia we eavesdrop on all of those phone calls but nobody asked for
Starting point is 01:40:40 that other person to be unmasked. Nobody did. So how did they know about that phone call? And General Flynn asked about it. How did they know? Well, you can't figure it out here because you're protected by law, right? Well, the CIA could know. No, but the CIA can't reveal that information and they can't do investigations on anyone. Hey, what if you used MI6? What if you used the Italian intelligence agencies and you had them spy? What if you got Australia involved as well? And you had them spy on the Trump campaign and the Trump people because then they would know because they're of course monitoring General Flynn. They're of course monitoring the Russians.
Starting point is 01:41:47 So could we get somebody from MI6 to help on this? Maybe the Italians as well. Oh yes, we did. And we have evidence of it. And it's illegal. The rabbit hole goes much deeper than I even thought. And it has to stop. More in a second.

American financing NMLS-182334. www. nmls consumer access.org. So I'm here just with, you know, the man on the street with the one and only Bernie Sanders. Hello, Mr. Sanders. How are you? I'm off there going after the millionaires and billionaires. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:43:14 So, Mr. Sanders, do you own a home? I own 12 homes and I keep in them lots of ice cream from the Ben and the Jerrys. Yes, I don't know why we're doing this. So just to, just to, I know you don't feel comfortable sharing your Bernie Sanders. I don't have it. impression. I don't. Right. And so I'm just making you do it. Just for the fun for me, not necessarily for the audience. Anyway, so Mr. Sanders, in those 14 homes, you could sure save a lot of money on your mortgage payment if you called American financing today.
Starting point is 01:43:56 Saving money is deadly for the proletariat. And Nolan should try to do it. I mean, everyone should, this land is my land, Glenn. Right. This land is your land. How much is left on your mortgages did you, did you, I mean, you must have 14 homes and you're a public servant. You've never held a job. You must have quite a debt on those homes.
Starting point is 01:44:26 I was able to steal full cost for all the homes. And I do not have any payments left. I do not have to do this mortgage with the banks. It helps the banks, all the millions, all the billionaires. all the billionaires at the banks. I'm not going to do that. I stole it from the people instead. All right. Well, here's the thing. Unless you're Bernie Sanders, if you have money that you still owe in your home and you're paying more than 4%. You could pay, you could save hundreds, if not thousands of dollars.

When we got the names of all the people that unmasked General Flynn, I was on the air with Lara Logan, and she got the list, and she saw a bunch of names, and she said, here's why this is significant with Samantha Power and everything else.
Starting point is 01:45:41 But we saw a name that we wondered, it wasn't even a name. It was from the embassy in Italy. And we're like, why does the Italian ambassador want to unmask General Flynn? Why is that? Well, apparently that's what General Barr and John Durham have been curious about as well. NBC has reported now that Durham and Attorney General Barr went to the United Kingdom and Italy in an effort to examine the contributions of foreign countries to the Russia probe.
Starting point is 01:46:24 When they got back, that's when this went from an investigation, a political investigation, to a criminal investigation. Barack Obama and Joe Biden used foreign intelligence, and foreign intelligence actually collusion. with Obama for an overthrow of the Trump campaign and later his presidency. It's shocking all the details you'll find on last night's broadcast on Blaze TV. All right.

Starting point is 01:48:25 I, you know what I really love about the Supreme Court? Yeah, I can't think of anything either. That's weird. Let me give you a couple of rulings. Yesterday, the Supreme Court actually ruled in favor of religious employers.
Starting point is 01:48:49 You can opt out of Obamacare birth control mandate. Also, religious organizations are exempt from the civil court employment discrimination suits. So the little sisters of the poor, I love this. I love the fact that Obama was going after the little sisters of the poor. They don't have to buy birth control. The nuns don't have to buy birth control for the people that work for them. In Our Lady of Guadalupe School, the justices same 7 to 2 margin prohibited employment discrimination suits against religious organizations where the employee served a religious function.
Starting point is 01:49:28 I think that is, I think that's incredible. The ruling in little sisters, employers are free to opt out of contraceptive mandate if they have a religious or moral objection. This is the third time the court has ruled on this. And they have a ministerial exemption for anybody who works at a religious organization for hiring. those two came out well now there's a couple of others that have just come out um the trump tax records are not immune from subpoena and that is gorset uh... cavernor joining the majority which has got to be just driving oh trump out of his mind imagine how pissed he is that the two guys he named the supreme court both went against him on the tax records thing i think he's been
Starting point is 01:50:25 fighting since 2015. Now, he's not going to be, you know, he's not going to be happy, nor would I, if I were the president, and I fought, especially Kavanaugh. I just, I stuck it out for you. However, I'm glad that they are voting with what the law is saying, not trying to pay off a personal favor. I think that is really a good thing for our Supreme Court's credibility. Yeah, and whether they got that right or not.
Starting point is 01:50:55 agree with this. Yeah, it's questionable. I mean, I know anytime I see Clarence Thomas on the other side of something, I always want to make sure I'm thorough and read every word of it. Yes. But, I mean, it does seem that like the, and they were correct also on the separate ruling on the same case, basically, that said, hey, Congress can't just get these things because they want them because of separation of powers.
Starting point is 01:51:16 So they said Trump doesn't have to turn it over to Congress. He does have to turn it over to New York State because of their investigation. Of course, the major problem here is obviously someone's going to leak. him from the New York State investigation as soon as they, as soon as they can. And that's going to be a massive problem. It basically, it basically means you're going to be seeing it on the front page of the New York Times sometime before November. Yeah, it's, it's, it's the same thing with like Simon and Schuster, who I just, I think the, the guy who took over from Carolyn Reedy, I think he is, he's just a bastard. I hate the guy. But I think he's a, I think he, well, I know he is. He is a, he is a, he is a
Starting point is 01:51:55 leftist that paid Hillary Clinton $8 million for a book that sold about four copies. And, you know, with this Trump book, I can't believe the ruling is, yes, she has a non-disclosure, but Simon and Schuster, they made the case. Yeah, but we didn't have one. She gave us this so we can print it. It's obscene what they're doing. It's a nothing, a zero of a book, but it's obscene what they're doing. um you know the and that's the reason why i bring that up is because i think the same thing is going to
Starting point is 01:52:30 happen with the tax records it's going to be leaked if if it was for a case it should be taken but somebody if they leak it should go to jail for leaking it yeah that would uh that would definitely be my belief as well it does it just you know these things don't matter right every single one of these things that comes down is the same story, right? I mean, like the New York Times will print that and they will have no problem with it. And, you know, look, obviously most cases, the freedom of the press is really important here. I just think that a lot of this stuff gets leaked intentionally to try to hurt political enemies. And like, look, I don't know what his tax, you know, records are going to show. It doesn't mean there's anything bad in there,
Starting point is 01:53:18 but they're going to use everything they can to see, oh, he was avoiding taxes and look how rich he is or how not rich he is or whatever it is. They'll find some reason to use it as a political issue as we get into the election. Okay, so some of the other rulings that came out, and I can't even imagine the ramifications of this, there is a case, and you have to hand it to the enterprising lawyer or George Soros probably funded this. that came up with this get out of jail free card, a guy raped a four-year-old in Oklahoma. Awful, awful dude. Gets convicted. He said the state can't convict him of that.
Starting point is 01:54:07 It has to be the federal government because it happened on Native American land. Well, the state said, no, it's not Native American land. It hasn't been Native American land for a long time. well, it just went to the Supreme Court. Guess who gets to get out of jail? The four-year-old rapist. Listen to this one. It's really an incredible story,
Starting point is 01:54:30 and I don't know that I understand the full ramifications of it yet. But yeah, as you point out, there's about half of Oklahoma, basically, at one point was an Indian reservation, or at least that's what they claim. Eastern Oklahoma. It was a rape and murder of a four-year-old that happened in this general.
Starting point is 01:54:48 general area. They somehow came up brilliantly with the argument that, hey, this doesn't count essentially because if it happened on federal reservation, or the, an Indian reservation, the federal government would have to come in and prosecute it, not the state. So his point is not even that he's innocent, though I'm sure he claims he is. He's just saying, I was convicted in the wrong court. And he was sentenced to a thousand years in prison. So it was a, you know, Everyone. A thousand years. So what's interesting, there's just big ramifications here.
Starting point is 01:55:22 Is half of the state of Oklahoma really a Native American reservation? Essentially, that's kind of what the ruling says. So what happens with all the stuff that's there? Do now, all the people that live in eastern Oklahoma, do they all live on a Native American reservation now? I mean, the biggest. Do they have to pay state taxes? Right. Do they have to pay anything?
Starting point is 01:55:45 Yeah. they may not have to. What happens what happens to all of the people that committed a crime and were arrested in that half of the state? That's the biggest. All those arrests invalid now? That's the biggest direct effect of this. I would say like if you
Starting point is 01:56:00 robbed a bank 10 years ago and been in prison for the last eight years, you're sitting with 30 years to go. You're walking out of this as soon as you can challenge it, right? Because now if you were, if you went to jail under a state conviction and you were in this area, no longer should that be the case.
Starting point is 01:56:21 I mean, I don't know if you just walk out or you have to challenge it. I mean, I'm sure it'll go through the courts again. But still, like, it looks like the, you know, a lot of criminals are going to be able to get their convictions overturned because of this in a massive plot of land. And then after that, like, if you're a business and you're operating in Oklahoma, I don't know what the effect of that is, right? you're right maybe you don't pay state taxes you get the old taxes back uh do you have to now deal
Starting point is 01:56:50 with a new set of regulations that are totally different and are set by the the native american reservation so and and does your house or your property have any value because if it's a native american reservation you can't buy that they didn't you didn't pay for that so they own the property. So here's the, so in, you know, in the days when everything made sense, this would go to back to Congress and you would have the congressman and the senator from Oklahoma stand up and say, okay, guys, we need to clarify this. This is an old thing. The state said that this was not Indian territory. The federal government never ruled on it and when? 1890. So we just need a we just need a quick bill to seal this thing back up and you would have gotten it done
Starting point is 01:57:49 probably in record time that bill's not going anywhere there's no one no one that is going to support a bill that will be the most divisive they will you the left will use this and they are going to now use this as funneling all of their money to break oklahoma in half. They will do, they will, they will, they will take this as an opening to be able to go in and say, hmm, you know what, you got to give that land back to the Native Americans because it's stolen land. This is going to be a nightmare.
Starting point is 01:58:27 Yeah. And now every other area that was theoretically once owned by Native Americans is going to go through the court system, I'm sure. And, uh, that's going to be challenged over and over and over again. I mean, Gorsuch is the guy who was on, uh, on a conservative. side that cited with this ruling. His point was basically, look, Congress didn't do their job. You know, I mean, like, I, what am I supposed to do?
Starting point is 01:58:49 They didn't, they didn't pass the thing they were supposed to pass, so they're screwed. Yeah. And I'm, and I'm not John Roberts, so I just don't read into their intent and just rewrite it for them. Right. That's kind of his point. He's basically saying, yeah, this is the way it was. Now, you know, Thomas and Alito and Roberts and Kavanaugh are saying, well, this should have
Starting point is 01:59:10 been a decision made. He's on the conservative side, I would say on this one. He's saying basically, look, it's not a federal government decision. It was done by the state and it should be done by the state. So there's a disagreement there. But again, you know, it's five, four decision. So this goes into effect and I think opens up a bunch of new ramifications. You know, look, usually the idea that the constitution is not a suicide pact gets brought up in certain situations like this. so that's not, you know, so life-changing that our entire society gets overturned. I don't think that everyone who lives in eastern Oklahoma is going to have to, you know, walk to the border of regular Oklahoma and never see their home or possessions again.
Starting point is 01:59:53 I don't think that's how this is going to work, but there's going to be a lot of unforeseen circumstances tied to it. And if I was in that area right now, you would have no idea what your future looks like suddenly. And this just, I mean, like we needed more chaos in our lives. I have no idea what my future looks like now. I mean, I don't live in Oklahoma. I don't know what my future looks like now. By the way, I remembered what I liked about the Supreme Court.
Starting point is 02:00:27 Nope, I still can't. Nope. Just still can't do it. Let me tell you about our sponsor is Car Shield. I want you to hold your thumb and your forefinger about an inch of part, okay?

That's about the size of the bills that you're going to have to give to the mechanic to fix it.

Starting point is 02:02:07 Deductible may apply. Welcome to the program. We're glad you're here. We're going to have more on this ruling. it's obviously much more complex. We're not sure how it works, how it works. It may just work for the Native Americans
Starting point is 02:02:36 because the rapist of the four-year-old was a Native American. And so he may have to be tried by the tribe. Is it the Seminole tribe? The Creek. The Creek, okay. Mm-hmm. Okay.
Starting point is 02:02:57 Creek Nation. And these guys, because it was the Cherokees that were on the Trail of Tears, right? Was the Cherokee? I know they can go off road. I don't know, you know, if you need the four-wheel drive option for that. I'm not exactly sure how that works. No. No.
Starting point is 02:03:16 No, anyway. So when they got to Oklahoma, they had to give up all of their land east of the Mississippi. Mississippi, right? I'm just trying to remember. Yeah. This is what Gorsuch. What did they get in exchange? They got, here, here, this is what, this is Gorsuch's summary real quick. In exchange for seating all their land east of the Mississippi River, the U.S. government agreed by treaty that, quote, the Creek County west of the Mississippi
Starting point is 02:03:40 shall be solemnly guaranteed to the Creek Indians. Both parties settled on boundary lines for a new and quote, permanent home to the whole Creek nation located in what is now Oklahoma, although I guess not anymore. the treaty with the creeks, it was in 1833. The government further promised that, quote, no state or territory shall ever have a right to pass laws for the government of such Indians, but they shall be allowed to govern themselves.
Starting point is 02:04:08 So, you know, that language is pretty clear. And of course, that's why, you know, the conservatives are kind of blaming him for being too much of a textualist, basically, that's taking it too literally and you go and I know it's a weird although there's a different that's a weird argument to make there's textual as a conservative yeah right exactly although again you know Clarence Thomas is on that side of the argument as is Alito and Roberts and and Kavanaugh so 5-4 ruling on that one but it's a big change and certainly it's
Starting point is 02:04:43 going to mean that you know you'd think thousands at least of criminals many of them serious criminals will be allowed to chase their own freedom and may very well get it. Now a rapist and a murderer of a four-year-old, the federal government probably does follow up and say yeah, now we are going to prosecute as the federal government. The question is a lot of those lower level criminals,
Starting point is 02:05:07 I mean, maybe not, right? Maybe they are just going to be let out. Who knows? It's hard to know where this is going to go over. We'll have more on this tomorrow. It also sounds like a good time to have. American history about Andrew Jackson on tomorrow's program.
