Starting point is 00:00:00 If I wanted to sell my house, you know what I need? I need a real estate agent that will put some balloons up and have an open house and then not call me. That sounds great. Doesn't it sound great? Or the other option could be going to real estate agents. I trust.com are sponsored this half hour. What would they do? Well, maybe you could get someone who actually knew what they were doing.
Starting point is 00:00:21 Maybe I like the real estate agent that is related to me somehow or another or related to a friend who only does it part-time. Right. And it's like, we'll have an open house. That is cool. And there's nothing wrong with that, of course. However, maybe you have a screened agent who listen to the show, maybe shares some of your values. Knows your neighborhood, knows how much your house is worth, going to price it right, knows how to advertise it. And we should also point out, too, if you're buying a house, we never really talk about that side of it. If you're buying a house, why not get an agent that you know, knows that areas just as well as you do? And knows what your values are.
Starting point is 00:00:56 That's the really important thing. This is a real estate agent you can trust. Real estate agents.itrust.com. Go there now, buy, sell your home, and get the best deal. Real estate agents, I trust.com. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembach program. You know, you pay us to watch the news so you don't really have to. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:01:33 We go to the state of the union and we watch the whole damn thing so you don't have to. Stephen Crowder, he took one for the team. He watched the Oscars so we. We didn't have to. And he put together a really funny Oscar special. Well, ABC didn't like it. And Stephen Crowder is here to tell us about it in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck program.
Starting point is 00:02:02 X-Chair. All chairs are not the same. Oh, they may be created equal, but they don't end up equal. Oh, no. Ex-chair is a great chair that will help you if you have bad back, bad neck. back shoulder, bad shoulders. It is top of the line. It is the best, the best office chair I've ever sat in.
Starting point is 00:02:26 And I honestly believe, have you, because you've never sit back in your chair. Have you tried to sit back in your chair yet? A bunch of times, yeah. I think it is. You have me on the edge of my seat all the time, Glenn. I can't, I can't help. I honestly believe it is more comfortable than a lazy boy. And it's an office chair.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Yeah. It is such a great chair. And you can get it now. it's got all kinds of bells and whistles, and you can get all different models, including the X-Chair, you know, super or whatever the hell they call it, and the X-chair basic. So it fits all budgets,
Starting point is 00:02:57 it fits your body, and even has a wider ass-bad. So, you know, if you're getting a little wider, so are the X-chairs. It's great. It's X-chairbeck.com. That's X-chairbeck.com.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Use the promo code back and get a free foot rest. 844-4-4-X-chair. 8-4-4-4-4-4-4-6. chair or ex-chairbeck.com. We're starting a day out like that. It's not going to be good. Welcome to the program, Stephen Crowder.
Starting point is 00:03:33 How are you, Stephen? Hey, you know, I'm doing well. I just saw that X-Chair commercial. Maybe you can get me one of those because this thing sucks. Well, would you get me one of those things on your desk right in front of you? Because that's great. No, no, other direction. Other direction.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Oh, the Walt, you know what? Yeah, there's a spot that Walther P. Is this what we're talking about here? This is actually made back out of Fort Smith, Arkansas. I don't know if you're, I'm sure you're familiar. I say this with guests. Like, I don't know if you're familiar because I don't want to embarrass them, but I know that you know. Right. There were all these, these pieces of legislation that just mounted up.
Starting point is 00:04:06 And the Walther PPPK, you saw on James Bond, couldn't be imported into the United States just because it was too small. So they created something called the PPCS, which is the exact same firearm that includes one more round. and they were made in Germany. They licensed it to Smith and Weston and these other companies. And now they're actually made here in the United States to German specifications. They're wonderful. So I probably can. We'll swap an X chair for a firearm.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Okay, I'll get you an X chair. You get me a Walther and keep it on the QT about the X chair. I don't want. Okay. You can't tell anybody in the government that I gave you a chair. I'll sign the background check for my buttocks. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:44 So, Stephen, you had a great show on Sunday night. very, very funny. You brought the whole team in and you had guests. And you, some would say, we're mocking the Oscars, which deserves to be mocked. And halfway through, was it even halfway through? No, it was after the very first. First off, you're very generous. It was an okay show.
Starting point is 00:05:10 But, you know, I mean, yeah, it was right after the very first segment, ABC Disney struck us on YouTube with a hard strike so that they prevented the live stream from continuing. So thank God we were able to, we were actually able to continue that night on Facebook and, and get this up here, obviously, at the Blaze TV. So you had worked on this for a long time. Tell me exactly what you were doing that Disney objected to. What they objected to. I mean, I don't know. It's take your pick at any point in the program. I think they're more so objected to the overall idea of the program. So we've done this for several years now. This is not our first annual Oscars live stream. These are the important things to note. We did this last year, no problems.
Starting point is 00:05:50 We have a 16-hour CNN marathon live stream. No problems. I actually did that because it was a follow-up to the previous Christmas telethon where I'd been waterboarded. And I said, well, what's worse than being waterboarded? Let's watch the entire CNN clock. And frankly, this isn't a joke. I would rather be waterboarded.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Yes. We actually had people quit after the 16-hour. You hear about bands breaking up. It was a 16-hour CNN livestream. I had people in the back room just toss up their hands and walk. I can't do this. So this was not the first time we'd done this kind of stream. What happened was this year, the second we crossed 40,000, we were well on our way to 50,000 viewers that very second, which I know people say, oh, on viewers on television, this is very different.
Starting point is 00:06:33 This isn't a rolling average. There were 50,000 people at any given second. We were shut off for copyright infringement, which, of course, it's not. We actually are adding up the numbers right now. I think there were 20-something sketches. There were five guests, and I think it's about 98% of the Oscars live stream didn't actually include the Oscars. It was in a little tiny box with us watching it, mocking it, laughing hysterically, and ABC Disney decided to try and not only hit our channel with a hard strike,
Starting point is 00:07:03 but a lot of people disconnect when they hear about these things. Everyone here makes a living off of creating content, and what they're trying to do is prevent conservatives from making a living off of content. Another important thing to note, there are plenty of other Oscars live streams. Others that are far less transformative. They didn't actually have a shape of water fish mascot fixing himself a Manhattan. They just put up a stream and they're up there. We're the only ones who were targeted.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Okay, so let me play devil's advocate here. ABC would say the same thing. Well, we worked very hard to screw this tradition up for many years. Yes. And all the people at ABC. and if you can take our product and put it on something else where someone else can watch our product, we lose because you're cutting us out of the thing that we produce. How would you respond to that?
Starting point is 00:07:58 Yeah, they could say that. I mean, there's a very clear precedent if it's transformative. And there have been two major lawsuits recently, H3H3 productions and two equals three productions. I think Ray William Johnson's previous studio at YouTube, where they, one fair use fights. As a matter of fact, the law is on our side, the president is on our side, and it's continuing to actually cross over to our side. Here's the thing. Obviously, we couldn't show just a full film. I couldn't say, hey, here's Green Book, just running on my channel. That's ripping something off. That's not transformative. We actually had Shia LeBuff, well, I guess his firm
Starting point is 00:08:33 LeBuff, Franco Turner, what he did the, He Will Not Divide us live stream. We said, hey, this is funny. We went down to his, he will not divide us camera, and did our entire show from his, broadcast camera, and they sued us, and they lost. Because it turned out they had a greater viewership when we showed up in Queens to his public camera and did our show than they had at any other point, and it was determined that it was transformative. So you can't just run a film. You can't just rip something off, but for them to have a leg to stand on would mean you
Starting point is 00:09:04 can't be a critic. Things like Mystery Science Theater couldn't exist. Rebuttals online can't exist. We've had this before. We've had, I think, the Guardian and NBC go after. because we specifically point by point debunked something Seth Myers said or or Trevor Noah has said or Samantha B so they've done this for a while it's not that they don't want to lose out on profiting off of their content it's that their content
Starting point is 00:09:29 sucks and they don't want people criticizing it that's the issue here if they if they wanted to say hey let's be honest too this is free network television ABC anyone can watch it and anyone who's tuning in to me is Freddie Mercury from the live aid concert. My friend dressed as Spider-Man and Gerald is a gold statue and us doing a seven plus one canceled Jesse Smollett films bit. These are not people who are going to tune into the Oscars. It wasn't, huh, hold on a second.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Do I want to tune in to watch the Spike Lee speech? Or Crowder of Michael Myers with a blowing up Nike sneaker? Right. So, Stephen, let me broaden this a bit. Because this is something you and I have talked about just recently on the phone about how they are picking us off one by one. And I don't know if you saw the news today, but Tommy Robinson has been de-platformed
Starting point is 00:10:21 because he said he stood by the proud boys and Gavin McGinnis. That's the reason. Yeah, that's pretty silly. First of, I don't know enough about the proud boys or really what they are. I know they've been looking at Tommy Robinson for a long time. And I've talked with Tommy about this for a while.
Starting point is 00:10:42 They just try to find any reason. That's why it's also important to understand the law, and we're releasing the half-Asian Cracken today. We're releasing Bill Richmond on ABC Disney. We haven't lost yet, and I've also just heard I can't talk about this exactly. There's going to be a video release from a prominent conservative who does investigative reporting. We just found out again that we were specifically targeted for throttling on Facebook under a bogus label.
Starting point is 00:11:07 And by the way, I was the subject of an N-Gadgett, I believe, article or Gizmodo, about about two years ago, that's how I met my lawyer, where someone released documents saying, nope, it's not algorithmic. We were told to censor Chris Kyle Foundation, Ted Cruz for president, and Stephen Crowder. And we settled out of court. So this has been happening on all fronts. I think it's really important that people understand the law. What usually happens is it may not be because he said he supported proud boys.
Starting point is 00:11:34 It probably could be, and they would love to get rid of him for that. I think that's just an excuse. Exactly. It's an excuse. And usually what they do is if you file a counterclaim and you invite them to meet you in court, which we do all the time, by the way, this is important for people to note. Just inviting them to meet you in court often gets them to back off because they don't want the PR. There are two things.
Starting point is 00:11:56 There's the courts. And then there's the court of public opinion. And right now, major media outlets are using. My guess is with Tommy Robinson, without knowing all of the facts, they probably found some kind of a legal loophole where either it was copyright or something that they could actually legally claim was a violation. that's what they look for. Don't give them an excuse. That being said, they'll find an excuse anyway.
Starting point is 00:12:19 So what I do think is important is for conservatives to try and really create original content when they go out there. Try to move away from the herd, and they tend to be, and I don't mean move away from the herd in the sense that we want them picked off one by one, but move away from just the, I mean, just the, you know, Donald Trump, you know, I hate Obama kind of ranting, you know, into a, camera thing, that's not real content. And basically it makes it really easy for Facebook, YouTube, Twitter to pick you off with something. If you are creating a ton of original content, we have these
Starting point is 00:12:51 documents that we're going to say, hold on a second. There was 240 minutes of the stream and three minutes were the actual Oscars. There's not a court in the world that would look at that and say, well, clearly you just ripped off the Oscars and just ran it on your channel. Right. That kind of percentage is fair use.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Stephen, I want to give you a plug on the mug club. you said after a rather visceral rant when they pulled you off in the middle of the of the broadcast, you, you were a little hot. And you said, this is why the Mug Club is so important. Right. And Mug Club, of course, is in partnership with Blaze. It's been going on for a long time.
Starting point is 00:13:37 And then it was CRTV. Now there's Blaze TV. This is something we started. It was, I can remember. Have you ever seen the film Flash of Genius with Greg? And by the way, I don't know what just happened. I just said Flash in my lip. It went like a massive.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Flash of Genius. I don't know if you guys could. It was very bizarre. Did you ever see that? No, you haven't seen that film with Greg Kinnear. It was actually a court case where this is the man who invented the intermittent windshield wiper on cars. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:02 And someone else claimed. I think he was suing Ford. It could have been GM. Please don't shut me down here, ABC, if I'm mistaken. I could be wrong. I don't remember which of the big three. but they asked him, when did you invent the intermittent wiper? And the other person didn't really have an answer.
Starting point is 00:14:15 They said, well, you know, I kind of just thought it would be a good idea. And Greg Kinnear, the man who actually invented it, said, well, I remembered thinking with an eyelid that it closes when you need intermittently, whereas a wiper would smear everything. It was just basically it went at one speed. And he said, I thought, why can't a wiper work like an eyelid? And that's what's called the flash of genius moment. And they use that in court. Basically, any invention you can trace back.
Starting point is 00:14:40 to a moment. And if they don't have a good enough story, they're often not believed. With Mug Club, I can tell you exactly where I was sitting. I was sitting at one of my favorite breweries in Michigan. And we were being attacked at that point from all these false copyrights on YouTube because we were pretty early, pretty ahead of the curve there. And I said, you know what? We need to create something where we can still be on YouTube, we can still be on Facebook, we can still be on Twitter, but we're not reliant on them. And I was drinking for something called Munk Club. It was this, because it was like an old Belgian kind of brewery and they had these chalises. I said, I know, how about we do a mug club? How about we have a, this is a physical
Starting point is 00:15:12 token for people to see that they're a part of something bigger, that they're supporting content out there. And of course, now they have access to to everything, to you, to Mark Levin, to the whole lineup at the blaze. And it's been, it's been a real blessing. We never wanted to be just shut down behind a paywall. We wanted to use premium content to make sure that we could be a thorn in the side of the people at social media. Because we, we don't want to, get ourselves into an echo chamber and remove ourselves off of the mainstream platforms. But we also understand that they do want a Tommy Robinson us. So I think we're stronger together when we do this and we use both.
Starting point is 00:15:49 We use both methods. We have to use both, but we have to prepare for the time exactly like you said when they tried to Tommy Robinson all of us one by one. Stephen, best of luck. Thank you so much. If you would like to join Stevens Mug Club, all you have to do is go to blazTV.com. When you subscribe, normally I ask you to put Beck in there and you get the 10% discount. But if you're a fan of Stephen Crowder's, make sure you put Mug Club in that.
Starting point is 00:16:16 And you'll save, I don't know if you save or just get the mug. Do you get both? Is Stephen still there? Yeah, I'm here. Or there's also, they can go through Ladderwithcrow.com slash mug club. It takes people to the same place. It's a $30 discount if your students, veteran, or active military. So you enter in the code, student, veteran, military.
Starting point is 00:16:36 And I know a lot of people out there, they say, well, what if I'm homeschooled? Listen, we're pretty lenient. If you have a yellow belt and karate, you're a student. We want as many people to join up as possible. Congratulations. Your mom's check cleared. You're an orange belt. Here's your discount.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Thanks a lot, Stephen. I appreciate it. Stephen Crowder. All right, our response to this half hour, we've got to get to what happened yesterday with abortion. I think yesterday was a critical day in the history of our nation. And it didn't go well. But first, let me tell you about LifeLock. LifeLock is the one company that can protect you and your devices.
Starting point is 00:17:14 They are the first in the business of this, I believe, back in the 90s? It had to be in the 90s. It wasn't in the 80s, I don't think. No. They've been doing it forever. They were way ahead of the game. And now everybody needs to protect your Social Security number, your identity, your pass codes.
Starting point is 00:17:34 All of it. Now, nobody can protect all, you know, all devices and monitor all transactions and all businesses. But again, these guys are the best. If you'd like 10% off your first year, just use the promo code, BECK. Call 1-800 LifeLock. 1-800 LifeLock or LifeLock.com. If you use the promo code back, you're going to save 10%.
Starting point is 00:17:56 1-800 LifeLock or LifeLock.com. We break for 10 seconds. Station ID. I think it's so interesting about that battle between conservatives and all these social media outlets. It's so similar to what's happened in the mainstream media over these years. I mean, you know, first they got rid of all the conservative hosts and shows that were available. So then, you know, Fox News had to start. They've been targeting Fox News for a million years.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Then capitalism, the thing that conservatives preach about is able to create these amazing platforms. where now anybody can get on and have an actual business and create real content that people actually enjoy. And then the first thing they do there is start targeting conservatives to remove them from that medium. I mean, it's the same battle being played out over and over and over again. And I'm, you know, I'm glad Stephen fights this stuff because it's tough. It's a tough thing to fight. I mean, you go up against big time attorneys and big time... He's going after Disney or Disney's going after him. Disney is known as the biggest lawyers, the hardest
Starting point is 00:19:13 fighter, they do not surrender. This is going to be a tough fight for him. Especially in the Oscars. I mean, the Oscars are so bad that we've had this happen a million times where we wanted to do shows and we're told by, you know, the people here that we're not allowed to air it. Not even a clip of the Oscars the next day.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Yeah, you have things like the big game. You're not supposed to say the Super Bowl. You're supposed to call it the big game. At least when it's tied to something, you know, where you're, it's a contest or if it's a, you know, call now, you get tickets to the Super Bowl. You can't say that.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Even sponsors, even people who buy commercials on the big game can't say, hey, look for our spot on the, on the, uh, during the Super Bowl. They have to call it the big game. That's an extra price you have to pay. Right. And it's, that's completely absurd. And the Oscars are known as one of the worst defenders when it comes to being really protective with their content.
Starting point is 00:20:06 But again, like, you know, what he's talking about, these are sketches about other, you know, about the Oscars. That's totally protected. I mean, it's not even close. And the fact that, you know, he shows a couple of minutes. I mean, you know, obviously the lawyers, I'm sure we'll figure that out. But it's, it's just a crazy idea that, you know, it's, it never seems to be that the left has these issues. You know, they never, it never seems to be a problem. Look at this. Tommy Robinson. Okay, I don't know anything about him. I see him sometimes and I think he's a good guy. Sometimes I see him and I think he might be a bad guy. I don't know. He's in from England. I don't, I don't know him.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Can you give a quick, you know, baseball card background of who this guy is? Yeah. He started, you know, I don't even remember the name of it, like defense of England or defenders of England or something like that. And it was to talk about Sharia law and how it was creeping into their laws. I mean, and it all was. But he's a fighter. And they started to have real racists in the group. He then quit.
Starting point is 00:21:06 He started the group. And he tried to kick these racists out. And when he couldn't kick them out, he said, I don't want anything to do with this because you're white supremacists. So he left. Well, that's not good enough. And so he has spoken up against what's happening in England. And what's happening in England should scare the hell out of everybody who loves the Western way of life. I don't care where you come from.
Starting point is 00:21:32 I don't care what color you are. I don't care what religion you are. I know Muslims, they're afraid of the people that are pushing Sharia. law. So apparently, you know, he's been on the, he's been on the fence with everybody, you know, with Facebook and Google and YouTube and everybody else. And now he's come out and he supported the proud boys and he supported Gavin McGinnis. Well, okay, you may not like that. They may not like that. But how about all the people in the media that support Antifa? Has any of, have any of them been held to account for Antifa.
Starting point is 00:22:12 No. No, of course not. Because they're on the right side of history, Glenn. Correct. And they're not. They are absolutely on the wrong side of history. They're just anti-fascists, Glenn. Or are you pro-fascist?
Starting point is 00:22:22 Yeah. Yeah, just like Bernie Sanders is, he's anti-fascist, anti-dictator, anti-strongman. Yet last night on CNN, he could not bring himself to say that Maduro is a dictator. Even one cornered about it. On national television. National television. I can't say it. I'm going to make a prediction about the Democratic Party, and I want all Democrats to hear it. I'm going to do that coming up in just a couple of minutes.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And Pat Gray joins us as we talk about what happened in the Senate yesterday. You're listening to Glenn Beck. Okay, I've been talking about VPN technology now for a while. Internally, especially, the world of cybercrime and metadata has become personal data. and it's happened overnight. Websites are tracking all that they can. You can safeguard yourself from everybody who is tracking you or trying to steal your stuff with a VPN, a virtual private network.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Financial statements, tax returns, they're all targets. But Norton SecureVPN is one of the most trusted names in consumer cybersecurity. Norton SecureVPN. It's easy to use. You just install it. you log in once and it provides you with more online privacy and security than you've ever had before. Norton.com slash VPN starts at 333 a month, annual subscription, and Wi-Fi without the worries. Norton.com slash VPN.
Starting point is 00:23:59 You heard Stephen Crowder this half hour. You can go to Louder with Crowder.com slash mug club. You'll not only get louder with Crowder, but you'll also get Glenbeck and Pat Gray. He's coming up next. This is the Glenn Beck program. Yesterday, we were at a turning point, and I'm going to get into the turning point for the country here in just a second with Pat Gray. But I want to tell you, if you know of a Democrat, warn them, this is a massive turning point, and you are going to see the Democratic leadership run towards evil fast, because there is nothing restraining it now. is there anything in our society that is lower than killing a baby?
Starting point is 00:25:00 Every woman I know when they watch a horror movie or something like that, if they go towards the children, especially a baby, and they're going to use a baby in a blood or a killing scene, that is immediately the line for almost all Americans, but definitely women. women are like, do not touch that baby. I remember there was a scene in the last, what was it, Halloween that came out? What was the one with Jamie Lee Curtis?
Starting point is 00:25:29 You saw the last Halloween? I did. I haven't seen any of them. Jamie Lee Curtis was in this one. And for some reason, Tanya said, let's go to Halloween. And I'm like, okay. So I know. It was her.
Starting point is 00:25:40 It was bizarre. I think she had been kidnapped and replaced. But so we went to it. And there's one scene. where is it Jason? No, it's Michael Myers. Michael Myers is, is headed towards, he's in, he's killing everybody in this house. And he heads towards a nursery and you hear a baby cry.
Starting point is 00:26:00 And my wife said, we are leaving if he touches that baby. And I'm like, okay. It's so weird because these aren't real murders. She's aware of this? I know, she's aware of it. I'm just saying that that was, every woman I know is like that. Oh, yeah. You don't mess with babies.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Okay. The Democrats yesterday refused to make it illegal to kill a baby. And I'm not talking about a baby in the womb. I'm talking about a baby that has been born. Let me give you a refresher. In 2008, 2012, it wasn't cool to be a socialist. You were a racist if you said that. We don't want universal health care.
Starting point is 00:26:42 We don't want socialism. We're all capitalists. And then the Democrats did something that I thought was. stunning absolutely stunning could you please give me the audio cock crows this is from 2012 governor would you like to make your motion mr. chairman I have submitted my amendment in writing and I believe it is being projected on the screen for the delegates to see I move adoption of the amendment as submitted and shown to the delegates a motion has been made is there a second is there any further
Starting point is 00:27:18 discussion. Hearing none, the matter requires a two-thirds vote in the affirmative. All those delegates in favor say I. All those delegates opposed say no. In the opinion of the, let me do that again. All of those delegates in favor say I. All of those delegates opposed say no. I am. Yeah, I guess. Yeah. I'll do that one more time. One more time. All those delegates in favor say I. All those delegates oppose say no. No. In the opinion of the chair, two-thirds have voted in the affirmative.
Starting point is 00:28:12 The motion is adopted. And the platform has been amended as shown on the screen. There it is. That is the moment that the Democrats denied God in their platform three times. I think it's highly appropriate. that they denied him three times. Now, look at the race to insanity since that happened. Now you've just crossed the Rubicon of saying, babies?
Starting point is 00:28:39 What baby? Kill it. That's what they said yesterday. Every single Democratic presidential candidate voted against this bill yesterday. Warning, Democrats, you are going to see the mask is off and. Evil is embraced, you are going to see horrific things in the future from this party. Yeah, the clippity clop that you hear, often the distance is the four horsemen of the apocalypse galloping through town. It's for that bill to go down, 53, 44 to stop filibustering, to just bring it to an actual vote.
Starting point is 00:29:21 They couldn't get to 60 votes to bring that to an actual vote. Three Republicans didn't vote because they, they could. couldn't get back in time. And, you know, Tim Scott being one of them certainly would have been a yes for sure. Lisa Mikowski wasn't there. No, Berkowski, I don't know that. She would have been a yes. We don't know with her.
Starting point is 00:29:37 But if only there was a way to get, I don't know, to have a vote even when you're not there. But as it is, you got to carve them into stone tablets and put them on a camel caravan. Oh, yeah. Back to D.C. There's just no way. No, you can't do that. Is there anything more archaic than you can't vote if you're not there? You can't tell somebody your vote.
Starting point is 00:29:55 You can't call it in. You can't do it on the internet. There's no way to do it. do this? No, there's no way to keep that a line secure. It's crazy. It's like the president of the United States is on like doing like major calls with Kim Jong-un. The president of the United States can launch missiles
Starting point is 00:30:09 from a briefcase. Yeah, right. This is ridiculous. He doesn't have to be there to push the button. He's got in a briefcase on the beach. I swear it's it's really a defense with as to like the thing you've talked about Pat and I know you as well, Glenn, of getting these representatives out of Washington and back into their home. I love that.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Oh, my gosh. But I feel like they make it required to go to Washington to keep their little game going. Exactly. Exactly right. We should mention three Democrats did vote for this. And that's really going against the tide for them. Yes. It was Joe Manchin of West Virginia that you would expect.
Starting point is 00:30:44 And Joe Manchin said, Joe Manson said when he was running, once that baby is out, I'm there for him. Yes. And he was. What a wonderful line. Well, it's better than most. Yeah, it's better than kill it. Bob Casey of Pennsylvania and Doug Jones from Alabama are the three who voted for it.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Now, Jones, of course, is a, is in, you know, running in a state in which he, if he's not pro... It's Alabama. Yeah, it's Alabama. He's doing this, you know, arguably for political reasons. Casey is, I mean, Casey has even calls himself pro-life. He's not the pro-life brand that I would, I would like, but he's a famous... For a Democrat. ...famous for fighting this as well.
Starting point is 00:31:22 However, you know, and Mansion, but that's it. I mean, and none of them can just... None of them say, of course, that they want babies to just, you know, die as they're after they're born after, you know, a failed abortion. They all say, well, what this does is it weakens women. It's health care. They just lie about it. It doesn't. It doesn't.
Starting point is 00:31:39 They've made it clear that it only becomes human life when it grows up and registers as a Democrat. That's when it's left to a Democrat. And before that, you can kill it. I don't care. They just don't care. It's, as we said yesterday, that's a really bad sign for American civilization. It's a really bad sign. I think it's a knockout punch.
Starting point is 00:31:59 If it hadn't have garnered 50 votes, I would say America was dead. I don't know where God's line is. I don't either. But because 53, I hope that saves us. With the quote Jefferson, because I know God is just, I tremble for my country. This is terrifying. And I will tell you this. If you're a Democrat, please, please notice who they are,
Starting point is 00:32:25 where they are right now and where they'll be in 18 months or two years from now, because this is moving wildly fast. Did you see the new poll on Americans who now consider themselves pro-life? This is a 17-point change from last month. It's now 47-47, according to a new Gallup. I think it's Gallup poll. Just a month ago, it was 54-38. Now it's 47 all.
Starting point is 00:32:55 Really? 47% are pro-life. 47% are pro-abortion. And I kind of wonder if the bill in New York, Virginia, and Vermont had something to do with that. Oh, I think it did. Has it just gone too far now where that's the tipping point for Americans? And they're like, wait, wait. I can't associate with that anymore.
Starting point is 00:33:17 This is what I don't understand. That's what I'm hoping. The political article about this bill says Senate defeats anti-abortion bill. what what does this have to do with abortion? Again, yes, we're talking about a failed abortion. So the abortion's over. The baby's been born. What, of what use is it to the mother?
Starting point is 00:33:35 Once the baby is born and out, this has already occurred. Everything that could possibly go on with your involvement with this child is over. You can give it up for adoption and never see the thing again. Okay, I can understand the arguments about, you know, women's choice. I think they are BS arguments. we've discussed it a million times. But the baby's already outside.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Why would you oppose this at that point? All you have to do is get hands off, close your eyes, never have to think about it again. Because here's why. There's two reasons for this. One, spiritual, and you could dismiss this all you want. You've got to sacrifice it at the altar of death. You have to sacrifice this to the altar of progressivism, postmodernism,
Starting point is 00:34:18 leftism, and death, culture of death. It demands a sacrifice. I think that's where we are. I think it is too. We're not putting it in those terms, but the left has become a frightening religion. Yes. An anti-human and pro-earth at the expense of all humans kind of thing. It is a frightening religion.
Starting point is 00:34:46 So sacrifice is number one. And the second is, and this I say as somebody who would put it. yourself in this situation you wanted to have an abortion you chose to have it at the last minute you carried it around for three days thinking it was dead then it was born alive you can't give that thing up for adoption because you tried to kill it now that baby goes up for adoption that is a testimony of your depravity and that you were wrong if it grows up and it accomplishes anything, it is always there. That child is always there for the rest of your life. I will say, too, you could easily be creating your own Michael Myers. Because, I mean, if you think about it,
Starting point is 00:35:31 you know, if this is... He wouldn't die either. He wouldn't die either. And you have now taken on this child who will grow up to be the spawn to come after you in like 19 movies. Can I tell you something? That, that makes as much sense as what they're arguing right now. Yeah, it does. Yes, it does. It does. You could say, you could honestly stand up and be a leftist right now and say, you know, we've all seen the documentary of Michael Myers. And he doesn't die. This might be a new Michael Myers.

America, this is the president. America will never be a socialist country. Will that hold true if you're elected president? If I am elected president, we will have a nation in which all people have health care as a right, whether Trump likes it or not.
Starting point is 00:39:01 We are going to make public colleges and universities tuition free. We are going to raise the minimum wage to our living wage of at least $15 an hour. And whether Trump likes it or not, when I talk about human rights, you know what that also means? It means that our kids and grandchildren have the human right to grow up in a planet that is healthy and habit. They grow up inside the planet? Wow. Oh, my God. This is terrible.
Starting point is 00:39:29 There's magma there. There's magma, Glenn. He is a terrible, terrible person. He wants to put all the humans in the magma. That's a terrible policy. It's human magma. Hey, that's amazing. I love, too, how he uses Trump in there.
Starting point is 00:39:44 It's like, when I'm president, you know, everyone's going to have health care as a right. I don't care what Trump says. Well, you've won the election in this scenario, so why would you care what he says? He's using that like Brock bands use. Hello, Cleveland! Like, he's just looking for applause. This is a really bad appraiser. It's just an applause.
Starting point is 00:40:01 line. It's like, oh yeah, well, Donald Trump. Oh, boo. Me! Yay! He's terrible. You know, the New York Times has an article today, which is helpful to understand Medicare for all. And it pitches, it says, build your own Medicare for all plan. Beware, there are tough choices. And they give you these options to go through. Now, of course, it doesn't calculate the cost at the end, which was what I was really interested in. But it's, you know, the options are things like, do you want, you want, you? universal coverage, automatic enrollment. Do you want to end employer health plans? Do you want to end individual markets? So it's all, I mean, Medicare for All can mean a bunch of different things. Do you want to end premiums, end co-pays? The only one who has checks on all of that all across the board, there's about 20 plans they list, is Bernie Sanders.
Starting point is 00:40:51 He's further left than every single one of the other plans, including the Progressive Caucus. I mean, that is... The guy won't say, Maduro is a dictator. That's amazing. The guy went and honeymooned in Cuba and Russia.

Fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembeck program. Today's another big day. Yesterday, huge, I think, for the country and mainly the Democrats, when the Democrats cannot bring themselves to say, yes, that is a baby that has just a baby that has just, been born and is laying on the table, we need to feed it, comfort it, take care of it, make sure that it survives, honor our Hippocratic oath. When they can't say that, the country is in real trouble. The Democrats are even in more trouble. They're the first stop for trouble. But then today,
Starting point is 00:43:18 we have the national emergency at the border. Another critical day for the history of our country. Is this good? Is this bad? Ben Shapiro chimes in in one minute. Stand by. This is the Glenn Beck program. Blines.com is the number one online blinds retailer in the world. Now think of this. When we had CompuServe and AOL, they were in the blinds business online. I remember trying to just download a picture of something and I would go and have dinner. and it still wasn't finished. How do you do blinds and shades and shudders and drapes online? Well, you've got to be really good at customer service.
Starting point is 00:44:05 They had to make it super user-friendly. It's really user-friendly. That has to be the genesis of their whole program where, like, if you design it wrong or get the wrong color, they'll replace it free because people wouldn't have trusted the Internet at that point to make those decisions. Correct. And so that's why they send you the free samples. That's why there is the money-back guarantee or the guarantee that if you've mismeasured, They'll recut them. If you pick the wrong color or whatever, they'll recut them for you.

Starting point is 00:44:52 You'll get that additional 5% off. blinds.com, promo code, Beck. We only have Ben Shapiro for just a few minutes, so I want to get right to it. Ben, let's talk about the National Emergency Act at the border. How should this go down and why? I mean, the truth is that the president really should use 10 U.S.E. 284. That's the provision of law that allows the Secretary of Defense to declare certain areas of the border drug corridors. Then the president can simply build additional fencing there.
Starting point is 00:45:31 That doesn't require it be inviative. of a national emergency. It's power the president already has. He does have funding available under the Defense Department to do some of that. And all the areas that he's talking about, the ones that smuggle people, also happens to be the ones that smuggle drugs. That doesn't mean to have to declare the entire border a drug corridor, but he can certainly declare the most high-trafficed areas of the border drug corridors. The reason that I prefer that approach is because once you have presidents starting to declare national emergencies when they can't get something through Congress, that's an incredibly dangerous precedent. Now, I hear folks on the
Starting point is 00:46:02 right side of the aisle. And generally, Republicans, conservatives, they'll say things like, well, you know, if Democrats had this power, they would do it. Look how Barack Obama expanded executive power under his watch. That's true. But there is a difference between there are two problems with that argument. One is, right, were the conservatives, that's what we're supposed to not do. And two, there's a difference between making the argument Democrats have already expanded the power. And we fear Democrats will expand the power. So now we're going to preemptively expand the power, handing them a tool without any excuse for us to fight back against it. Because believe it or not, there will be a Democratic president again, whether it's in two years or whether it's in four or whether it's, at some point, when we're in six, it doesn't, at some point, there will be a Democratic president. And the Democrats that we're watching right now are already saying that climate change is a national emergency. They're saying it's the greatest emergency that's ever faced the country. They're invoking things like World War II as comparison items. Well, if you think that they, that they won't declare national emergency over climate change and then say, okay, well, you know, President Trump built a wall on the border. What we need to do is retrofit and wreck every,
Starting point is 00:47:01 existing structure in the United States, as AOC said in the Green New Deal. You got another thing coming. These people want power, and any excuse to take it will be used. I think the Democrats actually want Trump to use this because it will give them the green light to really, truly become a dictator. You can do anything. The difference between this, this national emergency is this one is tied directly to the purse strings.
Starting point is 00:47:27 So the president can do whatever he wants after trying to get it through Congress. Congress three times, not being able to get it through Congress. And so then he, he shuts down the government, still can't get it. Well, now he can control the purse strings without going through Congress that is absolutely unconstitutional. And even if there is an emergency, we should not set this precedent. We've got to be able to stop the Democrats from doing this, you know, when they, when they want to do all of the things that they've already tweeted.
Starting point is 00:48:01 Great. Declare a national emergency because we think it's a national emergency on X, Y, and Z. And they've already said it. Yeah, and they're not really hiding the ball here. And one of the things that I find to be such a problem here is that, you know, when President Trump talks about the national emergency at the border, there's no question that in a colloquial sense we have an emergency at the border. But that emergency at the border has been there for 35 years. Yes. It's not as though things have radically ramped up in recent years. The numbers are actually down in terms of border crossings. That's not to undermine the idea that there's a serious problem. at the border. But the whole point here is that if President Trump is running on the platform of I'm going to secure the border and Democrats won't allow me to do so, well, then run on that. I mean, if Democrats, if Democrats don't want to secure the border, then they should be made to defend that. But to expand executive power simply by saying Congress won't give me what I want, I'm going to do what I want anyway, and I'm going to grab money to do it. It's a danger,
Starting point is 00:48:53 it's just a wrong thing to do. And frankly, I don't see the upside except for some temporary, politically expedient headlines, the wall is not going to get built under these auspices. It's just not. I mean, there will be courts that strike it down and create injunctions. It's already 2019. The idea that the wall is going to be completed by 2020 by the time of the election, I think it's a fool's errand that the best you're going to get maybe, maybe 10 to 15, 20 miles. You're not going to get a massive build before the election.
Starting point is 00:49:19 So what is the trade here? The trade is the power of the executive to now centralize this kind of authority in one branch of government away from the legislature. sure. And in return, you get a little bit of border fencing. That ain't going to cut it. Everybody in the line of secession, including the president, drop dead from a shellfish attack. You're Jewish. You haven't had any. So you're like, okay, I'm next in line. What does President Shapiro do today about this? Well, I mean, the first thing that I do about the border situation, as I say, is I invoke 10 U.S.E. 284. I declare that there are drug corridors along the border that need to be
Starting point is 00:49:56 protected. I already have the statutory authority to do that, and I build fencing there. And then the next thing I do is I go out on the campaign trail, and I say every day the Democrats don't have any interest in protecting the border. They have been attempting to ratchet down security at the border. I mean, this is the campaign issue. Bottom line is the American people need to make up their minds as to whether they think this is important enough to merit an actual change in policy at the border. I just, it fails to, I fail to understand how the president can simultaneously claim that his program is immensely popular in terms of building a border wall. And at the same time, refuse to campaign on that against Democrats and instead declare a national emergency and just do it from the executive seat.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Ben, when Obama tried to pitch DACA a million times to Congress and got rejected and then decided afterwards that he did have the authority, he said he didn't have over and over and over again, it was my opinion that they didn't even believe they had this authority. Because if they did, they wouldn't have gone to Congress over and over again. the same thing here. I mean, it's not like Donald Trump goes to ask Nancy Pelosi's permission because he thinks it's fun. They obviously felt they needed this authority to get this money and now are going the exact opposite way. I mean, it's a terrible precedent, and I don't even think they believe it. That is a great point. I mean, we just had a large-scale government shutdown, the longest partial government shut down in U.S. history. What was the point of all that if the president could have just using his authority, declared a national emergency been done with it?
Starting point is 00:51:18 Why don't just do that? Why is he not using 1084? I think the reason that he's not using 10-284 is because he believes that if he, if he declares a national emergency, then he's going to be able to go back to his voters and say, listen, I did all I can do. I think he understands that he's not going to get a border wall built before 2020. He's going to be able to blame the courts if they stop it. He's going to say, listen, as president of the United States, I used all the authority that I could possibly have even thought about to try and get this done for you. Give me, give me Congress. So I think it's an election tactic.
Starting point is 00:51:47 So in other words, he wants the, he wants the, I wasn't able to do it, but I will do it next time, as opposed to, look, I did all I can, help me get some people in here that will actually pass this, and we're already taking the steps that I legally can. He thinks that's a bigger win the other way? Yeah, I mean, the president tends to be a man of extremes. And I think that when he looks at this, I think he wants to be able to say to people, listen, the maximum amount of authority that I was told I had by my own lawyers, that's what I tried to use here.
Starting point is 00:52:20 and courts held it up, and the courts are stacked, and we have to change the courts, and the Democrats have stacked against me, and we need to throw them out of office. Again, I don't think this is a practical strategy that is directed at actually building border fencing. I think this is a strategy that is directed at getting stopped in court, and then being able to blame the Senate, blame the courts. I don't like politics being played with the Constitution, and so, you know, they're, the only Republican I've seen who stood tall on this is actually Justin Amosch in the House,
Starting point is 00:52:45 but I think that, frankly, the founders believed that the branches of government were going to check one another. They did not believe the party loyalty was going to be able to overcome branch loyalty. So a member of the legislature who's a Republican should still stand up for the legislature when a Republican president encroaches on the authority of the legislature. They're wrong about that, obviously, because people now don't care. I mean, people in the legislature are happy to toss more authority to the executive branch so long as it means escaping censure from their own constituents back home. Ben, quickly, your thoughts yesterday on the vote that didn't pass with abortion? Well, I mean, I think it's pretty obvious at this point that the Democratic Party has completely freed itself from anything like a moral mooring. It's insane. I mean, it's frankly insane. In 2002, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act passed unanimously in the Senate, unanimously.
Starting point is 00:53:37 This didn't even get, you know, a Democrat, what I get, four Democratic votes, something like that. Three. I mean, this is three. I mean, this is this, this bill does, all it does is, is it basically extends the law a little bit to say that if a baby is born alive, it has to be transferred to a hospital and it has to be treated with the same care that any other infant born alive would be given. So it just removes any distinction possible and law between a baby born during a botched abortion and a baby born not during a botched abortion. And the reason for the law, as Ben Sass pointed out, is that this distinction has been, has been actually created by New York law. And New York, New York, and New York, and New York, actually had a law on the books. It was section 4184 in their, in their penal code. And it essentially said that if you were born alive during a botched abortion, then you were given the same rights as a baby not born during a botched abortion. Well, their New York state abortion law completely overrules 4184. And so this federal law says, well, no, no, no, we're going to restore the fact that a baby born under any circumstances deserves the same rights. And Democrats like, no, can't do that. Sorry, we need to have special capacity, do something different.
Starting point is 00:54:43 I haven't even seen even a coherent argument on the part of P. I was looking all night last night or any sort of coherent excuse from Democrats for why they would do this. There's not. Ben, I don't let you run, but just what do you think of this? One last thing. You know, we merged with CR TV and we became Blaze TV. What do you think about Blaze TV wire? Well, you know, I sort of feel like the girl who's proposed to in front of.
Starting point is 00:55:13 of the entire whole thing. I love you, Ben. Take care, brother. God bless. I mean, I take that as he agreed. I just move forward. That's the way I heard it.
Starting point is 00:55:28 That's the way America heard it. All right. Filter by. Filter by. I know nothing about how to maintain my home. Nothing. No, you don't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:37 You don't even want to really maintain anything that you own. Nope. You don't have their abilities. Nope. When toilet stop, flushing. It's time to move, quite honestly. But I have Filter Buy because Filter Buy will help you if you are really bad at doing the things you're supposed to do. Here's what I want you to do. I want you to go to Filter Buy, BUI.com.

Starting point is 00:56:24 Because we're having the roof repaired, they may have to take the studios offline for a few days. And if they take the energy off, we have to go, I don't even know. Is there a regenerator that does that? We, I was told the other day that we pull as much energy to, power 60 homes for a year every week. Wow.
Starting point is 00:56:52 We are canceling out every Prius you see. Everything is to bring you this broadcast and broadcasts like it. Congratulations. Anyway, they make the big huge ones. They make things for your house. It's a filter. And you've got to change the air filter, especially in the wintertime when all kinds of crap is staying inside.
Starting point is 00:57:13 That's why we get sick. So change your filters. Save yourself some time, some frustration, and some money. Get the edge this winter at filterbUY.com. Sign up for auto renewal, and they'll just send them to you every time you're supposed to change the filter. It's filterbby.com. We break now for 10 seconds. Station 90.
Starting point is 00:57:45 I found that the other day, and I thought, thank God we live in Texas. Thank God we live in Texas. Where we don't have brownouts. We don't seem to have problem with energy. No, we do pretty well on that here in Texas. Private, private energy companies. That's why. By the way, there is a, it's going to be, these votes are going to be pretty interesting on this, this declaration.
Starting point is 00:58:08 I mean, the House we know is going to say, of course, it's not a, it's not going to be approved in the House. I mean, everyone knows that. I think for sure, the Senate, not for sure, but I think most likely the Senate will say, no, you can't have the emergency. because, I mean, there's already 47 Democrats, right? So you're going to be at 47 to start. I mean, Rand Paul seems definitely against it for sure. You know, there is, I mean, it seems like... What would you vote?
Starting point is 00:58:38 I would absolutely vote no. So would I. I mean, and it would kill me because I know what the problem is on the border. And I... Yeah, it's not about that. It's just not about that. We cannot allow the executive branch to get this powerful. You are, listen to this, if by some strange chance, Donald Trump does not win the next election, you are two years away from having an avowed socialist, most likely, an avowed socialist, somebody who wants to put in the new Green Deal is somebody who voted all of the Democrats that are running for president, voted yesterday.
Starting point is 00:59:19 they voted to kill children that were already born. Phil, go to lengths, these folks. You don't want to give that office any more power. And I got news for you. The first emergency declaration that they do, assuming the next Democrat gets in, is going to say, on environmental grounds, the first thing we need to do is knock down that wall.
Starting point is 00:59:40 The first thing they will do is remove the wall that you already built. I promise you that wall will not be standing. And as Ben pointed out, they're not going to be able to build enough of it in time to do any damage anyway. You're giving this power up for nothing. And that is what is the most... That is like, I have a problem with this because I want to make these sort of pragmatic arguments. You know, Democrats will take advantage of this, and they will use this power in the future.
Starting point is 01:00:06 And the other side of you, you're not even going to get the wall. Maybe they build 10 or 20 miles of it if you're lucky by the end of this after it's, you know, if it's not knocked down in the courts. All those are pragmatic reasons to get. get people who generally are, who care about the border on, on the side of my argument, right? But in reality, it's not the real argument. We all know what this, we know what the Constitution says. It says the Congress has to make these decisions.
Starting point is 01:00:33 We know that the law was not intended at all to do what Donald Trump is trying to do with it. I mean, you know, this was a law that was, and I think the law is unconstitutional, the National Emergencies Act, but the act itself was designed for, we're in the of a major crisis, we don't have enough time to get legislation. He need, the president needs some time to pass something. Just get something started because we're in the middle of an emergency. Again, this is a 30-year emergency. This has been, this is not, this is not something where this use of it is even close to
Starting point is 01:01:04 appropriate. And as much as I really legitimately think the motivation of the president here, you know, I think there is a big political element, but I mean, I'm saying about the end game here, a border security is real. I think it is. I can easily be qualified as an emergency that's been ongoing for a very long time. But just because you think something's important doesn't mean you get it in our system. You have to respect the Constitution.
Starting point is 01:01:31 We're not doing that in this country. Here's the problem. This is how I think people feel. Because I know I feel this way. I know. I do too. We have been battling this forever. Forever.
Starting point is 01:01:42 And we even got them to do a shall build the wall. You know, what was that? 2006. They didn't build it. They had no intention of building it. The Republicans don't have any intention of doing it. When they had that bill, it was Kay Bailey Hutchinson, a Republican that overturned that and stopped it from being built. The Republicans don't want to do it. The people don't want to, they don't necessarily want a wall or a fence or a garden or a moat or they just want it to be secure. And the wall is the only thing that feels permanent to people. And it won't be permanent, but I understand that. Right, right, right, right, right. And that's why if Donald Trump would have
Starting point is 01:02:26 started it and had four years to work on it, it might have been different because you could have been four years, if he would have made that his priority, it could have been done. But you didn't have the Republicans on board. And so the average person who is for security, not necessarily for a wall, just for security, says these people are going to hammer us to death. And it may not be an emergency as defined today. But we all know it's going to be. We all know there is coming in our future, probably nearer than any of us like, hopefully farther than we think, but closer than we would hope.
Starting point is 01:03:08 there's going to be a crisis of people flooding to our border. Look what's happening with Venezuela. I know. And look, a lot of people from Venezuela that have left are here. Hundreds of thousands of them. And so I agree that this is a big deal and it's important. But think about it. Just stop and think about it from the other perspective for a second. The Democrats,
Starting point is 01:03:29 they've been trying. They passed, they had John McCain on board for a global warming bill. McCain Lieberman. They have been going the right way all this time they tried to go through Congress. They tried and tried and tried and tried. They tried with guns. They've tried all these things and they didn't get what they wanted. So they had to do something that wasn't available to them. That's not an okay argument. This really is. This really is the end of guns. If a Democrat is president next term, this is how they get rid of guns. This is how
Starting point is 01:04:04 they do the new Green Deal. They just get it done and the voters have nothing to say about it. American Financing Corporation, NMLS-182334, www. www. nMLS Consumeraccess.org. All right. Trouble ahead.
Starting point is 01:04:21 Trouble ahead. For people who haven't purchased a home, mortgage rates right now, historic lows. Last year's increases still historic. But if you're renting, you might want to consider buying because you're not going to see these rates
Starting point is 01:04:37 again, only if there is a massive collapse, will these come down and then you're into a whole different world. But renting has already gone up 5% in the last, what was it, last 12 or 18 months. If you have a variable mortgage, please get it locked in because these rates could skyrocket. The company that I truly trust, and I really like these people, is American financing. They're salary-based mortgage consultants, so they're on your side. No commissions. They're not trying to sell you something. They're trying to find the right loan for you.
Starting point is 01:05:11 800906 2440. 800906 2440. Well, you heard it here first. You should subscribe to Blaze TVwire at blazTV.com slash Beck. BlazTV.com slash Beck. The promo code is Beck. Yesterday. I told you yesterday morning that I think the country is at a crossroads.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Today we are voting on whether or not to the president has the power. to spend money and declare a national emergency. In my opinion, he does not. We should not do this. We're going to give this power to the Democrats, and they will use it for all of the things. We've been trying to tell you about, you know, free education and the green movement
Starting point is 01:06:11 and trying to get these common sense things enacted, and they won't. It's a national emergency. We've got to pull the guns off. I mean, they will use it. We should not be doing it. that and here's another reason why I say extreme caution yesterday Ben Sasse wanted the born alive bill to be passed and we'll talk about that here in a second but the
Starting point is 01:06:36 Democrats and all of the candidates that are running for the Democratic nomination voted against it this is a bill that basically says if a baby is born alive you cannot kill it. This to me is a turning point. I don't know where God stands on how many votes we need to have before we lose our status as one nation under God. But we're getting pretty close. But I will tell you this,
Starting point is 01:07:05 the Democrats certainly have detached from reality and God. And I expect to see a race to the bottom of the barrel now. with the Democrats. They have chosen death and evil. Alexander DeSanctus was covering this all over the place. She's with National Review, and she really went through not only the entire story from day to day, but also suffered through every single speech yesterday. She joins us now. Hi, Alexandra. Hey, great to be with you. So what was it? Can you find any reason at all, Alexandra, that the Democrats have a legitimate case to not vote for this?
Starting point is 01:07:51 They really don't have a legitimate case, and I think you can discern that based on the fact that they're giving two conflicting reasons for not voting for the bill. On one hand, they've said, well, this is redundant of existing law. Infanticide is already illegal. And then on the other hand, they've said this bill is anti-abortion, and it criminalizes doctors and punishes women. And so I'm here wondering, which is it, right?
Starting point is 01:08:11 Right. Right. Yeah, it can't be both of the same. time, I don't think. I saw a bunch of stuff that they said was in this bill, like it was going to vilify doctors and make them more vulnerable, or are these just completely made up lies, assuming that their audience and voters would not read the bill? Right. They've gone with this line that the bill punishes doctors, and it does enforce criminal penalties for a doctor who does not give medical care to an infant. But I think the important thing to keep in mind about the legislation
Starting point is 01:08:41 is it doesn't prescribe a particular kind of care. It just says that if an infant is born alive in the context of abortion, it should be treated like any other living infant. It does not say you must give it this particular treatment. That's left up to the doctor. So is there any doubt in your mind? Well, how would you describe what happened yesterday with the Democrats? Was this just politics or is this something different?
Starting point is 01:09:09 I think it's very clear. that the power that groups like Neyroll and Planned Parenthood have over the Democratic Party, because if you look at public opinion polling, nobody really is in favor of denying medical care to viable infants. A lot of Democrats even describe themselves as pro-life now and support some limits on abortion. And this bill itself has nothing to do with abortion, but they're so sort of enthralled to the abortion industry that they feel like admitting any weakness in their case would be a problem for them. They're going to get hit by the really extreme parts of their party. But this isn't, this is, I'm sick of everybody calling it, including us, an abortion bill.
Starting point is 01:09:46 It's not an abortion bill. This is a, there's a baby right there. It's not inside. It's, it's no longer part of her. So it has nothing to do with women's health and it has nothing to do with abortion at all. Am I right? Yeah, that's exactly right. And if you listened, well, I guess you didn't, but I listened for you to every Democratic speech yesterday.
Starting point is 01:10:09 and they all kept claiming that this was an attack on women's health care, but not a single one of the Democrats pointed to a line in the bill that showed how it harmed women or had anything to do with women's health care options. This is about health care for a living infant that has been born. Alexandria, back in 2002, there was a bill that was roughly similar to this that passed, I believe unanimously. We're just talking to Ben Shapiro, and he said it was unanimous on that vote. So is this just the fact that this can't pass? Is that an example of how far the Democratic Party has come? come? Is there any part of them that thinks that this is a little bit further and does something they're uncomfortable with? Yeah, so the bill in 2002, all that did was define an infant born alive
Starting point is 01:10:50 in the context of abortion as a person, whereas this bill would be the only federal law that would actually affirmatively mandate care for infants. And I think that's a step too far for Democrats, simply because, you know, like we've said, this isn't an abortion bill. But if we're going to start defining an infant that's been born alive in the context of abortion as some of the step. And somebody who's, you know, deserving of medical care, suddenly we can start asking questions like, well, one minute earlier, when it's inside its mother, why is that not an infant? And then, you know, they're having to defend the entirety of abortion and they don't want to have to be doing that. Yeah, but, yeah, I mean, you're going the opposite direction. If I can kill it at birth,
Starting point is 01:11:26 why can't I kill it the next day? Why can't I kill it the minute it becomes non-viable? I mean, that, that argument goes, uh, it cuts both ways. And the American people are not on the side of killing infants, period. I mean, I have to actually state that. I know. It's an amazing point. It's like pretty basic, I feel like. I can't believe the world we're living in.
Starting point is 01:11:51 Does it shock you or can you explain how we've gone from a country that was having a debate about, you know, even first trimester abortion? And we were all very clear, partial birth abortion is wrong. third trimester abortion is wrong. But some people, you know, we were saying, I don't know when it's a baby. Is it the heartbeat or whatever? We were having that argument to all of a sudden. We're now having an argument about the most extreme, more extreme than partial birth abortion. The baby's been born.
Starting point is 01:12:31 How did this happen so rapidly? I mean, that's obviously a really complex question. I'm sure there are a lot of reasons. And I hate to blame the media for everything, but I do think that's a huge part of it because I've been covering this sort of thing and abortion broadly now for a couple of years. And it just astounds me how much misinformation is out there and is spread oftentimes, it seems intentionally, by media outlets and by people who call themselves reporters. And the average person just doesn't know. And so I think when you have Democratic senators standing on the floor claiming that this is an attack on women's health care, it's going to be portrayed like that by a lot of media outlets or just totally ignored and abrupt. under the rug and I think the average person doesn't know the difference, unfortunately.
Starting point is 01:13:11 This is a, you know, third trimester abortion, I believe, is 80 to 14 against when polled by the American public. And it's such an unpopular position to keep extending as Democrats tend to do. And I'm sure Republicans are putting them in the position to defend this intentionally because of that polling. But I mean, I can't think of anything on the other side where Republicans are supposedly won over by special interests and are supporting something that only 14% of the population agrees with. I mean, is Planned Parenthood that, that powerful? I mean, it just seems in, it seems almost self-defeating to go after these bills, unless I guess maybe you have the backing of the media to cover each step of your tracks. Yeah, I think that they're just
Starting point is 01:13:58 banking on the fact that no one's ever going to know the difference. And I think with Planned Parenthood, not only is it about, you know, the huge amount of money in the abortion lobby that get poured into the Democratic Party, but it's also about the fact that these groups then go out and lobby heavily against you. And if you vote against or vote in favor, rather, of something like the Born Alive Bill, you're going to be cast as an anti-choice extremist. And I think Democrats feel like they can't afford to take that risk. What do you think is in the in the future? What does the future hold for the Democratic Party if they can take this extreme of a view plus, say, the days of the free market,
Starting point is 01:14:35 and capitalists are numbered, and we will be a socialist nation. What is in the wings that they haven't said that is in their heart that they will do? Oh, man. I mean, who knows what they'll come up with? They've been astounding me now for the last year. Just every day has surprised me with their new extremism. But I think on abortion, I'm trying to be a little bit hopeful, at least. And I've been looking at polls for a really long time.
Starting point is 01:15:02 And the latest poll I saw just out yesterday now shows that, 47% of Democrats call themselves pro-life, which is a double-digit leap from just last month. And I think, you know, the tide is shifting on this issue, especially among younger Democrats. So that's where hopefully, hopefully they can turn it around maybe in time. I have a feeling we are going to ban abortion in my lifetime, and I think it could be in the next 10 years. I think there is a massive shift, and I think they've overplayed their hands. I've been looking at the Labor Party with the anti-Semitism and the communism embrace over in England. And in the last few weeks, we've had seven Labor Party members leave the Labor Party.
Starting point is 01:15:46 That would be like, you know, seven in the Progressive Caucus leaving and saying, these guys are crazy. When do you think the, not talking about Washington, but the average Democrat who is not a crazy, not a socialist, not a baby killer. When do you think, or do you think, they will hit a point where they say, I can't be with these people anymore. I mean, I used to be a Democrat, but if this is what a Democrat is, I'm not with these people. You know, I would think that we would have reached that point with the Born Alive Bill, which is why it's hard to really know for sure where we're going to go from here. But I do think if public opinion polls keep shifting like this, they're going to start paying an electoral cost for being so extreme. And I don't know, you know, I'm glad you're hopeful. I'm
Starting point is 01:16:31 sure how soon it'll be, but I do think over time science really does back up the pro-life position. Yeah. Alexandra, thank you so much. She is with the National Review and has done just great reporting on this, and we appreciate your time with us. I'm going to talk about this next hour. I've prepared some thoughts, and I want to share that at the top of next hour. And to be clear, I've prepared an interpretive dance of his remarks, so that will be coming
Starting point is 01:16:59 up. So you can see that on Blaze TV. If you're just listening, you don't get the interpretive dance. But I suppose you could, you'll feel it. Oh, I think there will be enough behind it to feel through the radio. Yes. Yeah, I do. I think so.
Starting point is 01:17:15 All right. Hey, now that we're voting to give the president ultimate power of spending and he can do what he wants if that passes today. And we can kill babies. What do you say we spend the day just thinking about, um, a fallout. shelter. I mean, I'm just saying. I'm just saying. By the way, did you see yesterday that the special operations, our special ops forces, are now all being retrained because they are now going to stop concentrating so much on terror. They need to concentrate on Russia and China. Wow, that's a big development. That was kind of like nowhere. Now nowhere. Nowhere. It's like, can we stop
Starting point is 01:18:03 talking about the guy in Chicago for a second. That's kind of a big deal. Oh, yeah. I love how the Democrats, they are like, oh, you know, Michael Cohen's going to testify about what he knows about the crimes of the Trump administration. By the way, and Trump happens to also be in North Korea or in a Vietnam meeting with Kim Jong-un about North Korea, something that could like, you know, our entire future could be at stake. Is this the right time for a giant circus back here in the United States?
Starting point is 01:18:28 I have to tell you, I saw the pictures of him in Vietnam and all the crowds, you know, prepared for Kim Jong-un or ill or whatever his name in Un. And I saw them all waving red flags and I thought, why is he in Portland? Anyway, my Patriot supply would like to remind you, now is the time to prepare yourself when there is not an emergency, when times are pretty decent. Now is the time to, while you do have some money and the pressure is off,
Starting point is 01:19:03 go to preparewickglend.com and get yourself started on emergency food supplies. Emergency food is a necessity if nuclear weapons are flying across. You might want to have some. I don't even think you need nuclear weapons. No, you definitely don't. You know, this is going to be a war of ones and zeros. All they have to do is shut down the power for a week. You know, shut down our grid for a week.
Starting point is 01:19:25 And we're in chaos all around the country. And the stores are empty. these things will come to pass. Please be prepared for you and your family. Urge others to prepare. Prepare with glen.com. My Patriot supply right now will have breakfast, lunch, and dinner waiting for you up to 25 years. Prepare with glen.com.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Prepare with glen.com or call them now at 800,271.63. 800,271.63. Prepare with glen.com. This is the Glennbeck program. I'm going to CPAC on Friday. I'm opening up the session, Friday morning session. I think either Donald Trump or Mike Pence is in the Friday morning session. It was supposed to be Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:20:26 Trump is out now. He's out of the country. Yeah. I think he left. So it's Pence that is going to be speaking for him. And he's been doing a lot on the Venezuela thing, by the way. Pence. He was down in Colombia working on that.
Starting point is 01:20:39 Him and Rubio have been very good on. that issue as well as a lot of people have but they've those two have really seemingly led the way on it what's happening in venezuela i don't think people like people understand you have we'll play the bernie sanders from last night here he is on cnn refusing to say maduro is a dictator listen to this do you have it do you have the bernie and i'm quoting him now america this is the president no america will never be a social not that one yeah burrubes Bernie won't call Maduro a dictator is the title of it. If we have that one.
Starting point is 01:21:17 Why have you stopped short of calling Maduro of Venezuela a dictator? This is. Well, pause. He, I think it's fair to say that the last election was undemocratic. Just the last. But there are still democratic operations taking place in that country. Stop. That is a bull crap answer. That's an absolute bull crap answer.
Starting point is 01:21:41 he doesn't have a problem with dictators and socialism. He doesn't have a problem. He was with Fidel Castro. He went over to Russia, the former Soviet Union, and he propped them up. He doesn't have a problem with a little blood to get things done. That's the truth. And he was not prepared to answer that question. Why won't you call him a dictator?
Starting point is 01:22:09 I, uh, well, you know, I, how much time do you need, Bernie? We got all the time in the world. Tell us the truth. Socialists don't mind dictators. You're listening to. What should an abortion doctor do if a baby survives an abortion and is born? Well, the baby's born. No longer part of the mother.
Starting point is 01:22:50 mom didn't want it save the baby give it to adoption right make sure the baby is alive live your hypocrite oath surely treat the child like you would any other human afraid not say democrats in an overwhelming number we begin there in one minute this is the glenbeck program all right I want to talk to you a little bit about relief factor. We have had so many people with relief factor here in the building that have taken relief factor and have found significant relief. You see, the National Institute of Health said in 1997, about 120 million people had at least one painful condition kind of ongoing. In 2014, that was up to 178 million. 58 million more people dealing with pain on a regular basis.
Starting point is 01:23:49 That is, I mean, that is a huge increase. And I don't know that, you know, I don't know what that people, I mean, we saw another poll that said two thirds of people don't even try anymore. They've just given up. They've given up trying stuff. They've done enough and they don't even want to bother anymore. Try it. Try a relief factor. You have nothing to lose.
Starting point is 01:24:07 Try it for three weeks. If it doesn't work for you, stop taking it. They've done enough studies to see. that this thing usually kicks in right around three weeks. So if it's not working for you, stop taking it. So you're not out of any more money. You're going to cost you 1995 for the three-week quick start. But 70% of the people who take it, it works,
Starting point is 01:24:26 and they go on to order month after month like I do. Relieffactor.com. That's relieffactor.com. I want to start with Mitch McConnell, as yesterday he introduced the bill. Listen. Legislation is simple. It would simply require that medical professionals
Starting point is 01:24:53 give the same standard care and medical treatment to newborn babies who've survived an attempted abortion as any other newborn baby would receive in any other circumstance. It isn't about new restrictions on abortion. It isn't about changing the options available to women. It's just about recognizing that a newborn baby is a newborn baby, period. Yesterday, all but three Democratic senators voted against the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. All but three. And I'm going to start with them because it took a ton of courage. The first one is Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, the second Joe Mansion of West Virginia, and Doug Jones from Alabama.
Starting point is 01:25:43 Now, I want to give them credit because they stood against the tide and the block, and I'm sure they got heat, but I will tell you, it really shouldn't have taken so much courage to stand up for a baby. Not in the womb, out of the womb. Senator Ben Sasse wrote the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. It was co-sponsored by 49 Republican Centers. Here is Ben Sass talking about it after the vote. This is about the most simple thing you can say, which is that a baby is.
Starting point is 01:26:20 a baby and they have dignity and they have worth and it's not because they're powerful it's because they're babies and so today is a sad day in the united states senate but i remain hopeful long term because ultimately the united states senate today could have a bunch of people 44 of our members decided to try to stick their head in the sand and pretend that a baby isn't a baby but 320 million americans are going to have conversations around their kitchen table that are going to be more loving and logical and in the long term i think that this is going to have in the right to but today's a sad day today is a turning point for the Democratic Party yesterday when they when they voted for the killing of children again a beyond what is in the womb this is a
Starting point is 01:27:07 child they voted yesterday to not protect the most innocent among us now I want you to really I want you to really think about that. As I just give you something from Charlotte's Web, Where's Papa going with that axe? Fern said to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast. Out to the hog house, replied Mrs. Arable. Some pigs were born last night. But I don't see why he needs an axe, continued Fern, who was only eight.
Starting point is 01:27:44 Well, said mother, one of the pigs is a runt. It's very small and weak. and it'll never amount to anything, so your father has decided to do away with it. Do away with it? Shrieked Fern. Do you mean kill it? Just because it's smaller than the others?
Starting point is 01:28:00 Miss Arable put a picture of cream on the table. Don't yell, Fern. She said your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway. Fern pushed her chair out of the way and ran outdoors. The grass was wet and the earth smelled of springtime. Fern's sneakers were sopping by the time. she caught up with her father.
Starting point is 01:28:20 Please don't kill it, she sobbed. It's unfair. Mr. Aerebel stopped walking. Fern, he said gently. You're going to have to learn to control yourself. Control myself, yelled Fern. This is a matter of life and death, and you're talking about controlling myself? Tears ran down her cheeks as she took hold and tried to pull the axe out of her father's hand.
Starting point is 01:28:44 Fern, said Mr. Arible. I know more about raising a litter of pigs than you. do. A weakling just makes trouble. Now run along. But it's unfair, cried Fern. The pig couldn't help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?
Starting point is 01:29:04 Today, if you're a Democrat and you're running, for President of the United States, the answer is yes. If you were born small and a weakling that makes
Starting point is 01:29:19 trouble, yes. we would kill you. This is what we're dealing with. This has gone beyond any reasonable thought. This is the Nazis, the people that voted for Adolf Hitler. They told him this couldn't be done. And so he just went into hiding with it. Thomas Jefferson said,
Starting point is 01:29:57 because I know God is just, I tremble for my country. Do you know why he said that? Because he knew the price of slavery, when they once again failed to stop slavery. I tremble for my country. In the second inaugural address, Lincoln said this about slavery, but I just want you to listen to the words and tell me
Starting point is 01:30:32 that this is not going to have to be said at some point over abortion. Lincoln said one-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves, not distributed generally over the union, but localized in the southern part of it. These slaves constituted a particular and powerful interest. Think of Planned Parenthood. All knew that this interest was somehow the cause of the war to strengthen, perpetuate, and extend this interest was the object for which the insurgents would
Starting point is 01:31:09 rend the union even by war, while the government claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial enlargement of it. They are willing to fight to the death for death. The government was just saying, no, you can't kill outside of the womb. Neither anticipated that the cause of this conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an easier triumph and a result less fundamental and astounding. Both read the same Bible, pray to the same God, and each evokes his aid against the other. It may seem strange that any man should dare ask just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of another man's face, but let us not judge that we may not be judged.
Starting point is 01:32:08 The prayers of both cannot be answered, that of neither has been fully answered. But the Almighty has his own purposes. Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offensive come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh. End quote. if we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses, and if I may add, if we think
Starting point is 01:32:39 that killing children might be one of those offenses with which in the providence of God must need come, but which, having continued through his appointed time, he now wills to remove, and that he gives to both north and south this terrible woe, as the world. bode due to those by whom the offense came? Shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes, which the believers in a living God always ascribe to him? Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away.
Starting point is 01:33:22 Yet, if God wills that it continue until all of the wealth piled up by the bondsman's 250 years of unrequieted toil shall be sunk until every drop of blood drawn by the lash shall be paid by another drawn by the sword. As was said 3,000 years ago, still it must be said today. The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. Half of America believes that abortion is wrong, and the other half, I firmly believe, are rooted in confusion or in compassion if they've thought about it, rape, incest. It's in compassion that they err.
Starting point is 01:34:20 But there is a new group that is emerged that is not saying safe, that is not saying rare. They are saying, shout your abortion. Celebrate this. They cheer. They march. They're proud. And yesterday, what did Lincoln call them? Those interests?
Starting point is 01:34:55 Those interests got every single Democratic candidate to stand against saving a newborn baby's life. Because I know God is just. I truly tremble for our country. We got our 23 and me results back. last week. We still haven't gotten Tanya's. Still haven't gotten Tanya's. That's going to be big. Well, she's coming back, German Shepherd.
Starting point is 01:35:32 Did you, well, did you hear the, uh, that's possible because you, you gave dog slobber in the sample? No, that's, that's ridiculous to even say that Raph and I would do something like that. Uh, did you hear that there's a new study that, that says your genes may actually dictate the quality of your marriage? So this could be a big thing for you. Really? Maybe, yeah. Why? Why? How does it do that? They say their studies the first to show that the gene that regulates the release of of what they's called the love hormone could be affecting the bond between partners.
Starting point is 01:35:58 They say different variations of this gene could alter the way one spouse feels supported and loved by the other. Now, we know you're a disaster in all relationships, personal and otherwise, but this will be interesting to see if there's science behind you. Yeah. I will tell you this, that I started with my wife because I am a doctor. So I know these things. And a colonel.
Starting point is 01:36:20 Right, and a reverend. So anyway, I started not allowing my wife to pull away from a hug until we count to 23. It takes 23 seconds before oxytocin is released and you get that love hormone released. And so if we're hugging, we have to hug for 30 seconds. Is this true? Yep. Because this is a way you're just minimizing the amount of hugs or maybe she is. Because yeah, you got to deal with one 23 second one here and there, but I mean, just time.
Starting point is 01:36:54 Can't do it all. Just can't do it all the time. Can't do it all the time. Anyway, get your DNA and ancestry kit at 23andme.com slash back. I just got mine. I'm 1.3% Native American. 13 times as much as Elizabeth Warren. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:10 It's like winning the lottery. The number 23 and me. Dot com slash Beck. That's 23 and me. dot com slash back we break now for 10 seconds station ID you know when is when is when is anybody going to stand up for men I mean when when when are men going to start organizing and stand up and say you know that's not who we are listen to this new Nike ad on women and be prepared I want to stop it and start it so go ahead if we show emotion we're called dramatic stop
Starting point is 01:38:02 Still, if we show emotion as men, what are we called? Girls. Girls. We're called girls. Or we're called weak or we're called pathetic. Right? All right. Next one.
Starting point is 01:38:17 If we want to play against men, we're nuts. Okay, stop. If we want to play against women, we would be called words that I can't say on the air anymore. Unless you happen to fall in the T of LGBT, then you can win. sprinting competitions over and over and over again. Do you see the women that are, do you see the women that are now saying the girls that are on these high school teams that are like, this is demoralizing? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:41 We know what it's going to be. They're guys that are transitioning and they have more muscle mass. Yep. Of course you're going to win. There's a recent race where they finished first and second to transitioning males to female against females. Right. stunningly, they dominated these races and they seemed to dominate all these sports. Right.
Starting point is 01:39:00 Which, of course, everyone on Earth knew was going to be. true, but because of feelings and political correctness, no one can point it out. Right. Okay. Next one. And if we dream of equal opportunity, delusional. Oh, yes. Oh, of course. That's what we think about women. We think when they dream of equal opportunity, they're delusional. That's exactly what we believe. Of course. They nailed us. Give me one example. Can you give me one example? In modern history. In modern history. I'm serious. Can you think of one example?
Starting point is 01:39:32 where you've heard somebody say, I want an equal opportunity, and you've thought, they're delusional. Again, even with the sports example, which they are delusional if they think they're going to win on a regular basis, but they're not delusional to think that they can have an equal opportunity. You're going to go ahead. If you can perform and make it into the NFL, good luck with that. I mean, you know, we've seen it in certain levels of football where, you know, certain positions, kickers and such have been filled by women admirably. No one thinks it's delusional. I mean, I think there's a physical limitation when you talk about giant 300-pound linemen and women running backs.
Starting point is 01:40:12 Probably not a good combo. But the point is, I can't think of anything. I mean, you know, I was just listening to, I'm listening to a podcast about the company that the blood testing, Theranos. Is that I don't think of? Is it Theranos? Anyway. It was a big story. And so this woman who,
Starting point is 01:40:32 this woman, CEO of this company, and the company was basically designed to get a pinprick, so you get one or two drops of blood, and you could run all the tests that you normally have to take a giant blood sample for. It would be revolutionary. And she founded the company when she was 19 years old with no medical experience. She had no scientific background in this field.
Starting point is 01:40:57 19 years old, Elizabeth Holmes, I think was her name. And so she went through this whole process, raised hundreds of millions of dollars in venture capital, probably some of it from evil men. She was able to staff her board of directors with every big name political person from across the spectrum. Bill Clinton, James Mattis, like all these huge figures, builds this company into a $13 billion company. By the way, the technology never worked. So the whole thing went completely.
Starting point is 01:41:29 We started with Wall Street Journal reporting on the topic. now developed into, the company I think officially went out of business in October of this past year. It's an incredible story. They never had the technology. They made all sorts of promises with never having the answers. And, you know, as I was listening to it as a person who's coming to it, not from the business journalism field, but from, you know, we do conservative radio, all you see in there is this desperate desire for this 19-year-old woman to have created this technology. They wanted it so badly to be true So they could have this identity politics example of this female CEO achieving things
Starting point is 01:42:07 There's plenty of female CEOs achieving things all over the world There's plenty of them But this this innate sort of urge to find that story They wanted it so badly They couldn't help themselves when they didn't really realize that She had nothing So when a woman says she wants an equal opportunity not only does the world not say delusional.
Starting point is 01:42:32 Right. The world says, yes, please. How can I help? However, let me narrowcast this for every conservative. When a conservative says, you know what, I want the slot that's open now on the Today Show. I want a slot on Saturday Night Live. I want a primetime show over at MSNBC or NBC, or CBS, I want to be the guy who is getting a doctorate at some university and able to give
Starting point is 01:43:07 the speech, the commencement speech at Yale. Delusional. Delusional. Delusional. It's perfectly there. Right. They are so eager to find victims. They have to create them.
Starting point is 01:43:23 They're out of victims. Did you hear about the transgender? guy, I think he was a woman. I don't know which way he is, but transgender. He had somebody burn his house down. Did you know that? Because of the hatred. The hatred
Starting point is 01:43:40 for transgendered. Oh, no. No. He went home to quote, get lunch. He was there. Surprise, surprise. Somebody poured gasoline all over the inside of his house and burned it down and it started within one minute of him leaving.
Starting point is 01:43:57 Isn't that weird? That is very weird. They have to create victims. You're listening to Glenn Beck. US intelligence officials say in their annual threat assessment that we now have a real problem because of the cooperation between China and Russia. Special ops have just changed from terror to China and Russia as well. Cyber war is a central billing in this report, but the report says China for the first time was described as capable of launching cyber attacks that could. to disable U.S. critical infrastructure, such as a disruption of our natural gas pipeline for days to weeks.
Starting point is 01:44:41 If this happens, the world changes overnight. Currency changes overnight. What happens if they disrupt the banking system for a couple of weeks? Do you have anything of value? Please find out how easy it is to own gold or silver and find out if it's right for you. Do your homework. 866 Goldline. That's 1866 Goldline or Goldline.com. Do it right now. You join BlazTV.com slash Beck. Get access to all the shows we want to talk about and get
Starting point is 01:45:15 10 bucks off with a promo code Beck. This is the Glenn Beck program. We're just talking about the vote that is coming down today and another big crossroads for America to decide what is right. my heart is with the president wanting to build a wall, but my head is dead set against an emergency act, only because you're, A, he's not going to be able to finish it, it's going to be tied up in court, maybe you get 10 miles out of it,
Starting point is 01:46:01 but then you have violated the Constitution and given the Democrats, who they will, don't get me wrong, I believe they'll take it anyway. I believe they'll try it anyway. But we have no leg to stand on if we set a precedence. We can hope and pray that the courts will stop an emergency act on taking away your guns, taking away your money for global warming. What's the other one they've said they want to do?
Starting point is 01:46:37 There was three of them. It's global warming and health care. Yeah. I mean, guns is going to be the hardest one because you have a constitutional amendment. Right. Would theoretically prevent at least extreme action. But the climate? I mean, they've got tons of stuff they can do on that one.
Starting point is 01:46:51 You know, all the drilling gains, for example, that Trump has, you know, he's been able to do Anwar and several other things that previous presidents had not been able to accomplish. That all goes away the second the Democrat gets in office because they will just now do it with national emergency. And, you know, again, you're getting so little out of it. this. People are like, well, you know, I want to get the wall up. Well, let's just say, theoretically, if you got the full wall, the way it was supposed to be built and promised to be built, you know, you can make an argument, maybe it's a tradeoff you'd be excited about. They're not going to get any more close to that because it's going to be tied up in court. And, you know, and the other thing, too, is we act as if these walls are permanent structures.
Starting point is 01:47:33 I mean, terrorists took down the twin freaking towers. The, they will use environment or border or whatever, they'll say there's a humanitarian emergency on the border because we're blocking all these people with the wall they put up and they'll knock that thing down in a week. I mean, it's like it is just not worth it and also just not right. I mean, it's not constitutionally correct, in my opinion.
Starting point is 01:47:55 It's also not what the law was intended to do. I think people need to understand how close we are to losing our country. We are truly, perhaps one election. or one disaster away. We don't have the right person in office for a real national emergency. World War III, your freedoms are going away. If we just elect the wrong socialist next election, if the economy falls apart and Donald Trump
Starting point is 01:48:30 isn't just absolutely perfect and the Democrats happen to catch a wave of some sort, you have a socialist and perhaps a giant radical leading this country. That changes us forever. It changes us forever. We're that close to the precipice. I want to play something that happened in England to a guy who was just peacefully speaking about the Bible in London and a police officer approach. Now, the guy was preaching in the public square, and he had a Bible, and he was quoting the Bible, and a preacher comes up to this, you know, new immigrant from Jamaica. Listen.
Starting point is 01:49:19 I'm preaching. You're preaching. I'm going to require you to go away. You can never. Okay, then I'll arrest you for a breach of peace. What breach of peace? It's what you're doing at the moment. You're causing problems.
Starting point is 01:49:30 You're disturbing people's days, and you're breaching their peace. Okay? So to meet, let's plead out with you won't go away voluntarily. I will have to arrest you. I will not go away. Because I need to tell them the truth. Because Jesus is the only way. The truth.
Starting point is 01:49:49 Jesus is the only way. The truth and the life. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. Nobody wants to listen to that. Nobody wants to listen to that. You will listen when you are dead. You would listen when you are dead.
Starting point is 01:50:03 You would listen. Now they grab the handcuffs. And they start to arrest him. And they take his Bible. And they take his Bible. And he just peacefully says, please don't just, fine, just don't take my Bible away. Please don't take my Bible away.
Starting point is 01:50:21 This is something if you see this video is like from some dystopian, futuristic movie that you hate. That's England. and soon we'll be here. Will Moll, writer from Faithwire. How you doing, Will? Hi, Glenn, how you doing? Good. I know you've been following this in England.
Starting point is 01:50:46 Tell us what's going on. Yeah, it's a crazy, crazy story. I mean, it just popped up on Twitter the other day this video, and looking into it, it was very clear that really this guy who was preaching had done actually nothing wrong. He was just expressing himself, just basically preaching to people who'd listened when they're walking past, had done nothing wrong at all, wasn't threatening anybody. And the police were called, I actually spoke to the Metropolitan Police about it,
Starting point is 01:51:16 and they said to me that the police were called because he was supposedly being Islamophobic. Now, that was quickly denied a few minutes later, because clearly he wasn't being Islamophobic at all. That was just his say. And the police officers, they said, didn't hear him being Islamophobic. So he was basically just preaching and clearly the officers, and there were a few people gathered around who weren't best pleased with them, and the officers kind of took their side and decided that actually we don't want you hear anymore. So the, as you can see in the video that you just said, the officer effectively said that he was breaching the peace, which he wasn't. I mean, he wasn't inciting violence. He wasn't doing anything illegal under law. So he said, well, you're breaching, you know, people's peace who are walking past. You're causing disturbance at a day and nobody wants to hear it, basically. So that was an interesting comment. And so then he basically marched him off. He arrested him and marched him off, which was completely unnecessary.
Starting point is 01:52:12 I actually only came out today that he, they affected all. The police told me that they then took him down to the station, realized they couldn't charge him with anything, realized they'd done nothing wrong. And de-arrested him was the phrase they used. De-arrested. And let him go. Yeah, I'd never heard that one.
Starting point is 01:52:26 De-arrest. You know what's amazing to me, Will, is here in America, we just had these radical preachers preaching hatred, preaching race riots, and they were on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. And innocent kids are listening to it. They're blamed for causing breaching the peace, if you will, being racist. And nobody said anything about the preachers who were just absolutely vile. But you don't have freedom of speech in England. No, well, what we do in some senses, we have a freedom of expression, the European Convention on Human Rights, which is part of the UK Human Rights Act in 1998.
Starting point is 01:53:09 That should give us a sense of freedom of expression, particularly. And obviously there are the laws that govern how you behave in the public square. If you're inciting hatred or violence, then that's legislated upon and that can be illegal. But it was clear that he wasn't doing this until. he was basically just expressing himself, putting out an opinion in the public square, and there was absolutely no grounds to arrest him at all. So, yeah, and I mean, there's another interesting aspect in that the police, obviously, you can actually hear him in the video after he snatches the Bible away from him,
Starting point is 01:53:42 which is just a horrible thing. And he says, oh, please, I take my Bible away. He says, well, you should have thought about that before you were being racist. And I asked the police about this. They actually didn't get back to me on this particular point, because I said, you've just told me that actually. there was no Islamophobia, there was no racism that he was projecting on anybody. The police officers didn't hear any racist remarks, so what's that about?
Starting point is 01:54:04 What's that about? Why is the police officer suddenly accusing him being racist? So they didn't have an answer for me on that one. And it's amazing. These were two white officers talking to a black Jamaican about being racist. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So the outrage has been pretty big in the UK, particularly amongst quite a lot of of like a lot of clergy. There's quite a few people senior Christian leaders in the UK who've
Starting point is 01:54:31 wanted to see more from the Archbishop of Canterbury and a few other people to actually speak out on this guy's behalf. I did actually hear today that he, the guy in question the preacher, he was eventually de-arrested, as the Metcley said, and then dropped off somewhere and he actually had no money on him, so he basically didn't know what to do and where to go. But then they said that someone helped him out and he ended up actually going back to Southgate, North London and continuing on preaching. So that's good on it, I'd say. Wow.
Starting point is 01:55:02 What is the, what's the health of the, of Great Britain now? I mean, we, yesterday in America, we, we actually had half of the Senate refused to vote on saving children's lives after they're born and refused to call that infanticide. and force doctors to take care of a living baby outside of the womb. I'm shocked with what we're going through, and because I know God is just, I am gravely concerned about the health of my country. What is it a health, what direction is it moving over there, spiritually?
Starting point is 01:55:49 It's a good question. I mean, I think that we are in dire straits in many ways, spiritually. I think there's lots of issues being raised by Christians and by Christian leaders, but then there's lots of issues that are just being passed by the wayside. I mean, he talked about abortion, and the UK, well, in Northern Ireland it's slightly different, but in the UK as a whole, in the mainland, it's the abortion laws, since the 60s have been incredibly liberal, and there's over 300,000 abortions every year in the UK. And that seems to have just taken a real, um, in terms of what issues are actually important to Christians or to the people who are in the
Starting point is 01:56:32 public square and in the public eye as Christian leaders. And then, of course, you see these situations where you think are religious freedom and freedom of speech, just in a general sense, it's just being whittled away, and no one bar a few smattering of people on social media who are outraged by it. And there's not a vast outrage at all. it just seems to be becoming more and more normal. And that's partly why I think we picked up on it and sort of made a thing about reporting on it, because I think it's just so vital that we do that.
Starting point is 01:57:04 But it's just a sort of passiveness, I think, in the UK, which is just very dangerous. And over time, that can become the normal. You know, those sorts of incidents can just become very normal, and we don't even realize it anymore. We don't see any Democrats here leaving the Democratic Party, no matter how extreme they go, anti-Semitic or, you know, death, you know, with the abortion embrace. We don't see the Democrats leaving, but do I read this as a good sign that you've had seven Labor Party leaders leave the Labor Party because they've gone too far? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:57:40 The anti-Semitism stuff has been so brewing on the surface for a quite a few months. I have a lot of Labor politicians getting very, very just frustrated with Jeremy Corbyn, and his inability to address that head on and actually take responsibility for it. So they've defected, and then there's obviously some conservative MPs have defected as well. No one's quite sure about that independent party and what that's actually going to look like in the future. But it is definitely, I think, an encouraging sign. At least politicians on both sides are actually saying we're not happy with this, and particularly the anti-Semitic stuff was horrendous,
Starting point is 01:58:15 and the Labour Party didn't deal with it properly. So it's good to see principled politicians actually come out of the woodwork. standing up for things. But I'd say it's still a long way to go on that front. Will, thank you so much for talking to us about this.
Starting point is 01:58:30 Will stay in touch. Will Moll, he's a writer for Faithwire. You can find him at M-A-U-L-E underscore Will. You can follow him at Twitter. Also find him at faithwire.com. All right.

If I were a Democrat, I would still be seething over how Donald Trump just would not release his income tax. That was the most important thing in the world. You can't run for president and not release your income tax. How dare he?
Starting point is 02:00:35 If a Democrat did that, you know, people would be raising a lot of attention on... Here's Wolf Blitzer last night with Bernie Sanders. Will you release 10 years of your tax returns? As you know, Elizabeth Warren has decided to do that. Yes. What was the delay? Why haven't you done that so far? Well, you know, the delay is not... It'll boil...
Starting point is 02:00:58 Our tax returns will boil. you to death. It's simply a... Nothing special about them. It just was a mechanical issue. We don't have campments at home. My wife does most of it, and we will get that stuff out. So when do you think we'll be able to see your tax returns? Soon as and later. What does that mean? Soon. Soon.
Starting point is 02:01:14 Yes. Are they ready to be released? I think that we have to just do a few more little things. Check them out. But they're ready. And why didn't you do it the last time around? You were under a lot of pressure to do so. I wasn't under a lot of pressure. Well, I didn't end up doing that because I didn't. I didn't win the nomination. If we had won the nomination, we would have done it.
Starting point is 02:01:31 That's part of the deal. That was the deal. How could we even accept a nomination of a guy we don't know everything about? That's what your side was saying. And that's what they say on the news still all the time about Trump. And you know what's crazy is we should look into this guy. Donald Trump, we know how he got rich. We got it.
Starting point is 02:01:54 We got it. Bernie Sanders? He lived on a commune. Then he went to serve the people, and now he's got beach homes and vacation homes and a giant... I mean, how did that happen? Where... How did you make your money, Bernie? There's a lot of...
Starting point is 02:02:11 When he said, what was the delay? I almost expected him to say, what is a delay exactly? What is the word delay even mean? Can we discuss? You're listening to Glenn Beck.
