Starting point is 00:00:00 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. Okay, we are, we have to take these things seriously because women need to be believed. And here is what Ocasio-Cortez said when she left the border guard yesterday. Listen carefully. In that last facility, I was not safe from the officers in that facility. Do you have any comment about what we were? was posted about you in the alleged Facebook group? I mean, I think it's just, it's just indicative of the violent culture that we saw on the inside of the world.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Wow, the violent culture that she just saw. She in that facility that she went to check out with all the cameras and everything else, she was not safe. I wish there had been somebody around that might have witnessed her feeling unsafe. And I understand we have somebody who had witnessed that or could explain exactly what happened yesterday, because we must take her seriously. She must be believed in one minute. This is the Glimbeck program.

Starting point is 00:02:50 She was not safe. No. animals physically and emotionally putting Akazio-Cortez in an unsafe atmosphere. And, of course, all women must be believed. And so we're going, we're shooting from the hip on that one. We're just going to believe her and take her at her word. And we have somebody, and what is your name again? Hello?
Starting point is 00:03:27 Yes. Hi, my name is Brittany. Hi, I'm an aide to Alexander Acquesel-Cortez. You are what? I'm an aide to Alexander-A-Col-Cortez. Casio-Cortez. I was on the trip to the border. You were on the trip.
Starting point is 00:03:38 I was. And what I witnessed was shocking. Was shocking. To the American people. Okay. And so you were there when she was unsafe. She was unsafe. All right.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Did you feel- From the officers? Yeah. Did you feel unsafe? I did feel unsafe as well. Okay. All right. I was very disturbed, by the way, that the officers were threatening.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Alexander at Casio-Cartas. Okay. What? So how is she being threatened? She was physically abused. She was physically abused. While at the facility. And you witnessed it. I did.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Okay. There was one officer in particular who physically abused Alexander Casio Karkas. Okay. With his pupils. With his pupils? Yes. He physically looked at her multiple times. Multiple times.
Starting point is 00:04:30 And I can't be. believe I had to witness it. Well, wait, but wait. Did I say the officers were doing it? Yes, you did. Because the officers were looking at her with the pupils. Uh-huh. And at one point, she was molested with a retina.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Okay. And it was not just the physical abuse. It was also mental abuse that I witnessed. How was the mental abuse? One officer was thinking about her. How do you know? Thinking over and over again. Thinking about what?
Starting point is 00:05:09 These officers who at other, they hurt the thoughts. The what? The thought inside of his head were about Alexander O'Hadio-Cortez. How do you know that? I was a social media post about her. Okay. This is the Holocaust. The Holocaust of social media posts occurred to Alexander Hazzio-Cortez.
Starting point is 00:05:34 I was there. Okay. And these, these Holocaust-like posts. Right. They, they, this was assassination by meme.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Assassination by meme. My meme. These, these, these are people who are former border agents, or people who said they were former border agents, or people who said they knew someone who was a former border agent. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Or someone who has once seen a former border agent who post memes that were negative about Alexander Cardas. Okay. And that is the Holocaust. The Holocaust of memes, yes. Yeah, okay, so may I... One person who was a prisoner told Alexandria Casa Cortez while she was there
Starting point is 00:06:16 that she was recently forced to sleep on a bed of needles. On a bed of... Infected needles. Infected bed of needles. The needles were infected by government-created HIV because they were the ones that did that. Right. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:06:36 And then this poor prisoner was carved up with a machete by a man wearing a hockey mask who was a former border agent. Okay. I don't think any of this happened. They were put in a barrel of acid and dissolved. Okay. So only because Alexandria Casio-Cortez was coming, did they surgically repair her? They surgically repaired her after they dissolved her. To cover what they did at the border. Okay. So did you see the bed of needles? I did, I,
Starting point is 00:07:05 I, I, Hello. What, what was that? That was, oh, well,
Starting point is 00:07:13 that was me rolling my window up. Just like Alexander Ocasio-Cortez does when she gets tough questions. Okay. All right. Brittany, thank you very much for the report. I appreciate it. So she has refuses to,
Starting point is 00:07:35 refuse to respond to claims that, uh, she saw people drinking out of toilets. I, I would, I, I, I,
Starting point is 00:07:44 I wish you would, Look, here's the thing that should happen. When I saw this report yesterday, I thought this is the most outrageous. I mean, remember, this is the woman who compared these to concentration camps. So we're lucky that she didn't say that, you know, the border guard was shoving people into showers and into ovens. But instead, she said, they're forcing people to drink out of toilets. Now, I cannot imagine this happening. But stranger things have happened.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Right? I guess. Stranger things inhabit. So, stranger things have happened than a prisoner, a supposed prisoner who's saying things about the people who are watching them, the guards. Because that never occurs. Someone who commits an offense, like crossing the border illegally, would never say something negative about border patrol. They should just be immediately believed without even a hint of skepticism. Right. Especially that we know that a lot of the organizers are from.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Chicago and our communists and Marxists. So when they see their ally Ocasio-Cortez come in, I can't imagine anyone running to the chain link fence and saying, oh, they were forcing me to drink out of toilets. I can't imagine that happening.
Starting point is 00:09:02 No, no. However, let's just take it at face value because when somebody makes a charge like that, we should know. For instance, let's say, let me think of something that would just never happen. You were walking down the street in the middle of the night, let's say, in Chicago and somebody said, this is Trump country and then put a noose around somebody's neck.
Starting point is 00:09:27 We should take that seriously and then figure out, did that really happen or not? It's kind of important to investigate. So when I first saw this yesterday, my first thought was, if I'm Donald Trump, I immediately dispatch the FBI. and I go to Ocasio-Cortez, and I seriously say to them, I don't want to show any, you know, some sort of show investigation. I want an actual investigation. We want you to investigate exactly what she said.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Then I want her to identify that woman. We'll take that woman and we'll put her into protective custody. So there's, you know, not going to be a problem with the border guards. The FBI can take her if they want. and make sure that she's protected and taken care of. We want to know the description of the border guard. We want to know his name. I'm sure she remembered his badge number because if somebody was saying that,
Starting point is 00:10:27 I would try to remember at least his name. And then I want a full investigation on that. And if those border guards are doing those things, I want them fired. Now, on the off chance that this didn't happen, I would like to prosecute anyone who is making outrageous charges like this, because you just can't go in and make charges. If we're going to take every woman seriously,
Starting point is 00:11:01 I think we need to start with Akosio-Cortez. Let's take her seriously. Let's send the FBI down. She felt unsafe. She felt unsafe in that. facility my gosh let's get let's get it on the record what exactly was making her feel unsafe in that facility now I can't imagine that the the ProPublica story that coincidentally came out at the same time she was making this charge I can't
Starting point is 00:11:41 imagine that she had prior notice of that and this was a great way to hype that story. But let's take her at her word. I'm sure she was asked for comment considering she was the first person named in the story. So obviously she would know unless pro public as a horrible, horrible journalism organization that decided not to get comment from the people mentioned. It's just an amazing coincidence that she happened to be down at the border and she felt unsafe in that facility at exactly the same time that that story was coming out. And again, what's the story exactly? I want to make sure I understand that people post bad things online. Is that a news story? Is it? Because gosh, I've seen a lot of terrible things posted
Starting point is 00:12:34 about you, but never one report about how awful it was. That is a, I mean, I can't believe a public figure would have nasty things posted about them on the internet. What an incredible scoop by ProPublica. Wait a minute. It was not just nasty things. They were things that made her feel unsafe. Were they? I guess they were. I mean, she was, I don't know why she thinks that the people that she was standing near were the ones who did it. They're like, this was, was this, how did we know they were border guards? Well, this is a Facebook private group. And, like, Facebook private groups with 10,000 people,
Starting point is 00:13:15 all you need to know is have an invite from someone. You could be five steps removed from a border agent and be in that group. It's the dumbest thing I've ever... Just so you know. And by the way, border agents are people, right? So, yes, they also have dark humor and do bad things. There are some agents that obviously make inappropriate jokes. What world do you think you live in?
Starting point is 00:13:35 This is we... Every conservative that has ever posted anything negative about Alexandria Akazio-Cortez in any level of critique has been accused of much worse. I don't know if you remember Ben Shapiro asking Ocasio-Cortez to debate, and she accused him of cat-calling. Not some random person, 10 steps removed from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, but herself, she said it. She accused him of doing that because he asked for a debate on the issues.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Well, I just know that Ben Shapiro has never felt unsafe from things that were said about him on the internet. No, no. I have never felt unsafe ever by things that were said by people on the internet or in Facebook groups or think progress or, you know, basically from the floor of Congress. I've never felt unsafe by anything like that. We need to take her seriously. And I mean it. The president needs to investigate this story. The FBI should investigate this story. if the border guards are doing the things in the facility, remember, she felt the unsafe in this facility. How stupid does a border guard have to be to do that to a member of Congress with witnesses around? She also claims they're drinking out of toilets. I want to know, is that true? If that's true, then those border guards need to be dismissed and fired immediately.
Starting point is 00:15:08 If they were doing something criminal, they should go to jail. But on the off chance that they didn't do that, we must put a stop to people making crazy, crazy statements. And then they're just floating out there in space. American Financing Corporation, NMLS 1-8-2334, www.n.n.m.lS Consumer Access.org. So the Federal Reserve has indicated that it intends to keep interest rates low for the rest of the year. So right now, we have an opportunity to get our financial house in order and set our course for our family's future. It's really important that you consolidate your debt at low interest rate so you can pay off those credit cards. It's important that you lock in a fixed rate instead of an adjustable rate for your mortgage.
Starting point is 00:16:07 because eventually rates go up. But if you can lock it in for 30 years or 15 years at a low rate, lock it in, you know that you'll be able to afford your home. But once those rates start to float and if they start to go up, you can quickly double your monthly payment and you're out of a house. So here's what I want you to do. I want you to go to American Financing. Net. Go to Americanfinancing.net. It'll take you 10 minutes on the phone. You tell them what you're trying to do. They work for you. They don't work for the banks. In fact, they have a, they have a, you know, they actually have a thing where you can say, I don't want, and apparently this happens a lot. I don't want my loan to ever be sold to Wells Fargo. And they put that on the note and they don't sell your loan to Wells Fargo ever. You can really work with these people and trust them.
Starting point is 00:17:07 because they're like-minded. Call 800-906 2440. They are fiscally responsible. Americanfinancing.net. Call 800-906-2440. We break for 10 seconds, station ID. So I was drinking out of the toilet this morning. Did you see, too, they talked about,
Starting point is 00:17:41 there's like, you know, in these facilities, which are obviously largely not intended for any long stays, they have these units that bring in the water and it has a toilet below and on top of it kind of behind it is where the sink is and people are like, do you think maybe when they said the toilet like because there's a sink also sort of attached to the same unit that might have been what they were referring to
Starting point is 00:18:06 and that they were they did not like the idea that they were drinking water that came out of a place that was too close essentially to But it was clean water. It's the same water. It's the same water. It's going there. But I got news for you. In your bathroom, it's the same water. You just sink might be a little. If you're lucky, it might be a little more than two feet away. Right. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:18:28 That might have been what it was. And then they asked her and she's like, oh, no, they said they had to go into the bowl. Absolutely ridiculous. I mean, obviously, this doesn't happen. Ridiculous. Come on. Ridiculous. Really? Is that, does anyone? I'm so tired. Honestly believed.
Starting point is 00:18:46 this occurred? Does anyone on earth believe it occurred? Akazio Cortez. I don't even think she believes it occurred. Oh, I think she convinced herself. I think she's in auto believe mode, right? Anything they said that was negative she would have believed no matter what it was. Because she wants to believe that it's negative, right? So that's
Starting point is 00:19:02 my belief on it. I don't think she, I don't think she actually believes these things occurred. And you notice how she worded these things. She's like, oh, well, I was being harassed by the border agents. You know, it's a nicely worded thing that doesn't necessarily
Starting point is 00:19:18 mean it occurred when all the cameras were around. It could just be the things that got posted in that Facebook group. No, she said in that last facility, I felt unsafe. By the officers. Mm-hmm. Officers. Mm-hmm. That is
Starting point is 00:19:32 what she said. Mm-hmm. So I guess she doesn't even have that out now. No, so I would I strongly recommend FBI investigation. I tend to believe there's cameras all around there. And it's funny because they made, they were very upset that they were asked to check their phones going into the facility.
Starting point is 00:19:50 So they did, but heroic Joaquin Castro smuggled in a device to get some footage. And what a brave man he is. And certainly nothing to, you know, his brother's running for president. That's not all important. It's certain to pull a stunt like this. And but you know what? All these terrible things happened.
Starting point is 00:20:10 The only thing he was able to get, though, was a bunch of women sitting comfortably in sleeping bags. But they were on the floor. Oh, my God. And unlike my daughter who sleeps on the floor in her sleeping bag next to her bed inexplicably every night. That is the most horrific thing that's ever happened. Well, I think that you can make a case that they're used to sleeping on the dirt outside for this, you know. This long journey.
Starting point is 00:20:37 You know, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of miles of journey. they're usually you know coping a squat by a cactus and now we're forcing them to put a sleeping bag down on a clean floor if there's only some recourse for these people if there's only some way for them to avoid these facilities
Starting point is 00:20:56 like I don't know like turning around and going the opposite direction back to their whole land you want to go back to the past I say we keep them marching forward yeah we open our boards and we march them all the way to the Canadian border
Starting point is 00:21:13 and help them across the Canadian border and I'm sure we'd have great response from the Canadians. All right. People say, what can I do to help save the Republic? What can I do? I feel like there's nothing I can do. Well, that's a lie. There's something you can do,
Starting point is 00:21:35 and that is switch your mobile phone service to patriotmobile.com. this is not an ad going, hey, look at the flags. These guys are Patriots.

Welcome to the program in news that proves we're not anywhere close to Kansas anymore, Toto. 49-year-old Roy Larner. He was defending himself against jihadist who killed eight people, injured 38 others.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Now, do you remember this is the London Bridge attack two years ago? Remember the Islamists came on London Bridge? They just started slaughtering people, killing people. And this guy, 49-year-old guy, he defended himself. The attack left him with more than 80 stitches to his head, ear, arms, and hands after two of the terrorists slashed at his head and neck. Following the attack, Lerner revealed that the terrorists had shouted, but this is for Allah, Islam, Islam,
Starting point is 00:24:41 during the rampage. So he fights these guys off. Now, this is not like, you know, they were having a planned thing. This was a planned attack. This was not a peaceful gathering of Islamists. These were people who came on to London Bridge and just started killing people two years ago.
Starting point is 00:25:03 So he was awarded the highest, civilian award for gallantry, he was given the George Cross. Seems great. So far, everything seems great, right? Well, apparently, he was contacted and interviewed by a far right-wing group. And the man who says, I'm not political at all, has now been put on the government's terror watch list. The guy who fought against terrorists is now on a terrorist watch list
Starting point is 00:25:52 for fears that he might become an extremist. He is now being forced to attend de-radicalization classes and is now being monitored by the police. Could we? could we maybe see if we can get a hold of this guy? Because it's going to make it worse for him. Now he's really not going to be in the terrorist watch list.
Starting point is 00:26:20 We're either missing something in this story or England has gone full-fledged bat crap crazy. Is it possible this guy was spotted with a Betsy Ross flag? Because that you want to talk about a sign of terrorists. Not on his shoes. Basically the number one sign of terrorism. in the world is the Betsy Ross flag. Well, she was a horrible human being.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Oh, my gosh, yes. I don't know anything really about her, except she was a seamstress, and probably the story's not true. But I am so offended by the Betsy Ross flag because it shows that you are a crazy kook. Oh, it does. I, for one, am glad that Nike listened to Colin Kaepernick and pulled all those shoes from market. Well, I mean, he has a lot of evidence that the Betsy Ross flag is basically the, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:16 it's basically white supremacy. It's basically a white hood is what I see it as. But BuzzFeed has pointed this out, by the way, and they have nailed it. Listen to the evidence piling up. It's so, it's piled so high. You can't see the top of the heap of this evidence. Are you ready? Number one. Yes. A 2018 story by the outline noted that the Betsy Ross flag was on display in the home of a member
Starting point is 00:27:50 of a white nationalist group. Shut up. That's number one. Shut up. And you think, well, that's more than enough to remove this historical flag. Well, that's why I have been boycotting Lucky Charms because that white supremacist also was eating
Starting point is 00:28:07 lucky charms. And I'm telling you, right now. General Mills is a white supremacist symbol. Everything General Mills makes, I boycott. I don't want it on the shelves. I am telling my local grocer,
Starting point is 00:28:23 you carry anything made by General Mills and I am out. You are a racist. Now, some people might say that's one piece of evidence. Okay, from 2018. You don't have anything from this year so far, but the year isn't
Starting point is 00:28:39 I mean, it's not over yet. Did you hear the David Duke also eat cereal from General Mills? No, I was talking about the I was talking about the flag. Oh. The lucky charms, there's plenty of evidence on that. Oh, I thought that was enough for me to hate the
Starting point is 00:28:51 flag. There's more evidence. So 2018, one Betsy Ross flag spotted in the home of one guy who belonged to a white supremacist group. That's evidence piece number one. Number two. As if you need more. As if you need more in 2016.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Now, 2016, you might notice, I skipped over 2017. There were no pieces of evidence, apparently, that the Betsy Ross flag had anything to do with white supremacy in 2017. That's what they want you to think. Or so far, 2019. But we have one example. Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:29:22 That's what the racist right-wing media wants you to believe. Right-wing media, like BuzzFeed. Yeah, and CNN. But in 2016, now listen to this white supremacy. Are you ready? Yeah. At a high school. High school.
Starting point is 00:29:38 In Grand Rapids, Michigan. Grand Rapids, Michigan. Which is basically, it's a hood in the form of the city. Let me just remind you, Grand Wizard. Grand Rapids. What kind of, let me think, what kind of rapids? Whitewater Rapids. Exactly right.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Commonly referred to. Everybody knows it. So it's code. It's a dog whistle. Yep. us in 2016 students at a high school in Grand Rapids Michigan displayed the Betsy Ross flag not on Cinco de Mayo please tell me not on Cinco de Mayo no okay worse worse than that I can't even think of that this is becoming the flag holocaust and you might think wow
Starting point is 00:30:22 is there a white supremacy gathering at a high school in Grand Rapids in Grand Rapids right you think it must be that well no in 2016, students at a high school in Grand Rapids displayed the Betsy Ross flag along with a Trump campaign flag. Oh my gosh. It's even worse. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Yep. Uh-huh. The student school superintendent later apologized. How did Nike miss these bombshells? So let me just review. Okay. I don't know if we have time for me to get through all these again, but let me just review all of them.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Just give me the highlights. Okay, I'll give me the highlights. Okay. Or all of them. Yeah. One guy Yeah. Who was in a white supremacist group had the flag. Holy cow. Along with cereal. Along with probably cereal. General Mills. You put those two together. An Irish cereal. Yes. Yes. Lucky charms. What do you think they're saying?
Starting point is 00:31:22 And then in 2016, only two years before that. Only two years. Only two years separated these incidents. This is showing up. pattern. Yes. And this one was a flag with the Betsy Ross flag next to a Trump campaign flag. And there you go. Hear the dog whistle?
Starting point is 00:31:44 Well, no, you're supposed to be able to hear dog whistles unless you hear it down. You know who can hear it? People in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Those people can hear it. Racists. Because they're racists. As evidenced by this 2016 school that displayed a flag of a candidate that won approximately half the vote.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Now, you might ask yourself, why are you guys talking about the Betsy Ross flag being a symbol of obvious hatred and racism? Well, that's because Nike has yanked a USA-themed sneaker featuring an early American flag. Notice CNN is covering. Oh, sorry, this is the Wall Street Journal covering for Nike right now, just saying an early American flag. No, it's the Betsy Ross flag that has a long history of two incidences of being a racist symbol. Colin Kaepernick told the company it shouldn't sell a shoe with a symbol that he and others consider offensive. Yeah, because he really should have the veto rights over all of America and what they find offensive. Colin Kaepernick, his head is just screwed on so well that he's the guy that should make the judgments for all of us.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Yeah. Well, but wait a minute, I thought it wasn't about the flag. No, it's not. Why would you say it's about the flag? These are people who are patriotic that were kneeling on the field. No, hang on. He said it's an utter patriotism. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:12 He says they shouldn't sell a shoe with a symbol that he and others consider offensive. So the symbol was the flag. No, I remember it's not about the flag. I have, well, let's listen back to Don Lemon. Okay. Who can tell us the true origins. All right, there's Don Lemon. Number one, she is a black woman.
Starting point is 00:33:31 She's a mixed race woman. When you see her, you see her blackness, but she is also South Asian. Her mom is South Asian, and her dad is made. Listen, there is. More power to her. And I think it's great. That is, that should be enough.
Starting point is 00:33:47 It is enough that she's a black woman. We are not a model. But no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no. No, no. I think you're not, you're not hearing what people are saying. The people who are saying, the people who are, we're saying is she blacking up, that's bold, that's BS. But to
Starting point is 00:34:01 want a distinction to say, is she African American or is she black or she, whatever. This is another really good Don Lemon cut, I'm sure. Can you play the video, please, of Don Lemon? Taking a knee at an NFL game was never about the flag or the military. Never. That's what the president wants you to believe. Yes! It gives his insulting sons of bishops. comment covers. Yes, it does.
Starting point is 00:34:29 That not only insults hardworking professional men, but tries to drag their mothers down Yes, the mothers, because the sons of bitches, get it? Taking a need is a constitutionally protected expression. It falls within league rules. Period. Right. Right. If anyone actually believes this is about the flag,
Starting point is 00:34:47 then you must believe Rosa Parks protest was about a bus. That's crazy! See? It wasn't about the flag. You know what else gave Donald Trump a little cover about it being about the flag, it being about the flag. And now it being confirmed it again.
Starting point is 00:35:03 It was about the flag. This is about sneakers. It wasn't about the flag. Now, he works for a sneaker company. But I'm sure that it was something else about these sneakers, not just the flag, being a quote, symbol that he and others consider offensive. So here's what Nike did.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Nike took those sneakers and shipped them all over the U.S. for Independence Day and then shipped them all back to be destroyed, or more likely shipped to a homeless shelter where they will be worn by the homeless, which good for them, but probably not in America because they probably wouldn't want that to be seen. So they'll ship them over to Africa or someplace else where people will gladly grab those sneakers and wear them proudly. I hope they cut the back of the shoe out, though, so that people don't see the Betsy Ross flag, which, by the way, need I remind you, was used in two prominent white supremacist attacks,
Starting point is 00:36:09 including the display in one home of one person and next to a Donald Trump flag in 2018 and 2016. Now, we are going to do the work that other journalists won't do. we are going to find out if Don Lemon has ever had any breakfast cereal from General Mills. Bastard. Donald Trump has had breakfast cereal from General Mills. Need I say more? Okay, Google and Facebook treats you like the product because you are.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Their entire business strategy is to gather as much data about you and sell it to companies who want to sell you something or subliminally influence your opinions. The only way to fight back is to have a virtual private network. You are being manipulated, and it is only going to get much, much worse. Things in your feed are manipulated. People are learning everything about you so they can accomplish what Amazon and Jeff Bezos says is product certainty that they're going to be able to predict you at least 90. 95% of the time. Exactly.

I think Stu was the first one to say it, and I agreed with him wholeheartedly that Kamala Harris is the one that is the most dangerous to President Trump and the rest of the field. She is a former prosecutor.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Well, the new polls have come out, and they are worth looking at. Biden, I think, is over. Now, a lot could happen. Yeah. But I think, you know, I think we learned a lot. And we'll get into those here coming up after the top of the hour. The Salvadorian president has accepted blame Monday for the deaths of a migrant father and daughter who drowned last month trying to cross the Rio Grande River. The Rio Grande is where these two, the father and this sweet little child hanging on to his neck both passed away.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Now, whose fault is that? It's not Salvadorian presidents. It's not anybody's fault. It is the mother and the father. It's their fault. Now, what he said was people don't flee their homes because they want to. people flee their homes because they feel they have to. Why?
Starting point is 00:39:27 Because they don't have a job. Because they're being threatened by gangs. Because they don't have basic things like water, education, or health. We can blame any country. But what about our blame? What country did they flee to? Did they flee to the United States? They fled El Salvador.
Starting point is 00:39:42 They fled our country. It's our fault. He also said, migration should be an option, not an obligation. Whoa. This is the first time I've seen a politician actually say something where he's taking responsibility for something
Starting point is 00:40:05 that he really doesn't have to take responsibility for. But really, isn't that the way we should be looking at things? Because we can't house everybody. Why isn't the outcry to help countries like El Salvador? That would at least make more sense. Can we help them more? Can we help them with their clean water and their gang problem? I don't want to get involved in another country,
Starting point is 00:40:34 but at least that argument would make more sense. You're listening to Glenn Beck. If you already own a home, it might be time to think about refinancing.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembeck program.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Well, Joe Biden is still the frontrunner, but barely. And I predict he ain't going to be the candidate. Everyone who thinks that he is thinks so because, well, he's the next in line. He's the most logical. He was the vice president. He's the least radical. He's the guy who can fight back against Donald Trump. I don't think any of that is right. Kamala Harris. is the one that I think will get the nomination, especially if things continue the way they are, the latest poll numbers,
Starting point is 00:42:35 and why people are flocking to different candidates after the first couple of debates in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck program. It's a special month for Americans.

Starting point is 00:45:35 Geraldine Ferraro and then it was shattered again by Hillary Clinton but this time maybe Sarah Palin as well oh yeah Sarah Paylan sorry Sarah Palin you but this time this time it might be shattered
Starting point is 00:45:49 it might be yeah for the fourth time we've been told over and over again it was only white men that were getting any votes in this primary well Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden that's obvious that the people that vote Democrat were racist because they are it was a craziest thing I've ever seen. They're calling their own people racist. But apparently not so.
Starting point is 00:46:09 No, not now. Yeah. It's almost like they were looking to hear the voices in a debate and then compare instead of just jumping on a bandwagon because of what's in your pants. Yeah, and this has been kind of a different, these polls look a lot different than they did just a couple of weeks ago. Yeah. Joe Biden again, we said this over and over again. It's Joe Biden's to lose, right? But Joe Biden's, Biden is good at losing. Yes, he is. He's lost. He's lost many presidential runs. Yeah. I mean, again, he was, you know, handed the vice presidency with Barack Obama. But other than that, I mean, he's run, this would be his third time running. And the first two did not turn out well, 1988 and 2008. So here he is again, back in 2020, which is incredible, Joe Biden running for president. Now, two months ago, he led Kamala Harris, third.
Starting point is 00:47:02 39 to 5, which is a pretty significant lead. Then... It's high score wins, right? Yes, high score wins, yes. I just want to make sure that Joe and his team understand that. High score wins. Keep that in mind. So that was in late April. Late May, he led 32 to 8, so a 24 point lead.
Starting point is 00:47:22 After this debate, he now leads 22 to 17 over Harris, a 5 point lead. Which is a smaller number than 39. That's a great point. Thank you. I just thought I throw that in. I didn't know you were a mathematician. I'm not a mathematician, but I play one on TV and radio. Yeah, basically the latest poll after the debate, all taken after the debate, it has a four person sort of top tier now. With Biden at 22%,
Starting point is 00:47:50 Kamala Harris at 17%, Elizabeth Warren at 15%, and Bernie Sanders at 14%. So what do you think the two most important things that I take from this is the Kamala Harris surge. She's basically doubled her level of support in one fell swoop. One question really is the difference between the poll numbers. Joe Biden, if she hadn't had done that, I'm not sure Joe Biden would have come down and I'm not sure she would have come so far up.
Starting point is 00:48:24 But she handled that like a prosecutor. She's a great prosecutor and a great actress. And I'm not saying that anything she said she didn't believe or whatever. I'm just saying that she knows how to package it. She's a good storyteller. Joe Biden was not. He's an old school kind of storyteller. And everybody just feels like that just rings totally false.
Starting point is 00:48:49 And he seems old and outdated. And she made him look that way immediately. Also, you look at Joe Biden's numbers and you look at Joe Biden's performance. and if you couldn't answer Kamala Harris, when you knew that question was going to come up, you knew you were going to be cornered on that. If that's the way you handle it, how are you ever going to handle somebody on stage
Starting point is 00:49:17 that is a, I mean, he's an IED waiting to go out. You step one place and Donald Trump's going to blow you up. Right. It's very difficult to prepare for Trump because you don't know where he's coming from. No idea where those IEDs are buried. Much less predictable than this situation, which was totally predictable. Again, you're talking about the biggest story in Biden's previous two weeks leading up to this debate, whether he had said these things about segregationists and busing and stuff.
Starting point is 00:49:46 And you're next to the top-tier candidate who happens to also be African-American. How did you not see this coming? The other thing that I find very interesting is, and I would like to see, where did those people go who were with Bernie Sanders? It appears as though they went to either Warren or Harris. Yeah, I would say Harris. I mean, excuse me, Warren, mostly. I mean, because Warren had been making a move before the debate. I don't think anyone says that Warren had an amazing debate.
Starting point is 00:50:21 They did a poll. Part of this poll was who do you think won that? the debates. So that was Kamala Harris 41, Elizabeth Warren 13. And then Biden 10, Castro, 4, Sanders 4, Buttigieg 3. So, I mean, basically...
Starting point is 00:50:36 Well, that's not counting Beto, right? Beto has the other... Beto actually showed up as a negative number. I don't know. Maybe you misprint. I don't understand. You know, so this is a situation where Harris had a breakout performance, right? But, I mean, again, one breakup performance a year and a half before an election does not win you a nomination.
Starting point is 00:50:56 She's got to do a lot more than this. What she did here was get herself into that top tier. Yeah, now she's got to, and it's really hard to hold. It's easier to gain than it is to hold it. Yeah. So she's got, you know, if you're on her campaign, you're hoping that she doesn't peak too early here because she's got to hold this thing. I mean, we can run through the names and you'll remember a lot of them.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I mean, you know, Herman Kane and Fred Thompson and. and Carly Fiorina had a run like this in 2016. She had a great debate performance, came up to that top tier, was not able to hold it. Now, Harris was kind of bubbling under that top tier anyway. So this one seems... I think she's a real deal. Yeah, it seems like it's real.
Starting point is 00:51:38 But another thing they show in this poll is who do you think could handle particular issues best? And Harris doesn't particularly perform well when it comes to things like the economy, for example, or health care. she performs really well when it comes to race relations, which is one of the four categories they tested. But again, race relations, while it's going to be a big issue, certainly in the Democratic primary,
Starting point is 00:52:02 as it always is, obviously identity politics are huge. It's not necessarily, you've got to do more than that to be able to get elected by the American people as a whole. I mean, that's one issue and it's an important issue, but they're also going to want you to be good with the economy and health care and all these other things.
Starting point is 00:52:19 If she can't close the gap, on health care and the economy, she doesn't win. Because if the economy is good, people are going to be much more reluctant to switch horses midstream when things are good. If things are bad, that's going to be the top priority. Also, something else you should look into is how do they fare on foreign affairs? Because between Iran and their ally, Russia, I wouldn't count out real problems internationally sprouting up right before this election.
Starting point is 00:52:55 No, I mean, obviously it could be a potentially huge issue. I don't think they tested that. They tested the economy, health care, the climate crisis and race relations. Who's best to handle that? The climate crisis is Bernie Sanders is. He's number one, then Biden, two, Warren, three, Harris, four. Excuse me, that was health care. I remember that incorrectly.
Starting point is 00:53:14 I'm sorry. For the climate crisis, it's a tie between Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden and 19 percent. Warren at 14 and Harris at six. Listen to the economy though. This is a legitimate problem, I think, for Kamala Harris. And why, if you want to make an argument that this is a fleeting moment, because she has to do more than this. That's the most important takeaway.
Starting point is 00:53:34 She can't just have one moment about race with Joe Biden. She's got to continue this. She can't do, I mean, we've seen this in the past. Romney was a great example of this. Beats up on Barack Obama in debate number one, but then does, it basically turns the campaign off for the rest of the time and loses. Like literally, like it seemed intentional. It seemed like, how could I lose this race?
Starting point is 00:53:56 Yeah. Listen to this for the economy. Tell me Harris does not need to improve these numbers. Who's the best for the economy? Number one, Joe Biden, 28%. Number two, Elizabeth Warren, 20%. Number three, Bernie Sanders, 16%. Kamala Harris, 6%. Her, I mean, her issues are 6% for the economy, 10% health care, 6% climate crisis, 29% racial race race. relations. It's not enough. Right now it's just a moment for her. Here's the thing. She is a prosecutor. She's very, very smart. She's, she's accomplished. She can do this. This will be hers to lose. She could do this. And she, to me, she would make the most fierce opponent. If I were advising the president, which I'm not. But if I were advising the president, I would be most fearful of her.
Starting point is 00:54:45 I would be doing more work if this holds to make sure that you know how to go toe to toe to with her. Because she's going to be a different debate. She's not Hillary. She's not Hillary. You have to look at that and realize that Hillary was a uniquely terrible candidate. Joe Biden, I think he's going to, I think he'll crush Joe Biden. I think he'll do a great job on Joe Biden. I think he'll do a great job on Elizabeth Warren.
Starting point is 00:55:13 I think he'd do a great job against Corey Booker. I can't think of anybody that I don't think he could crush. Kamala Harris is different. She'll be able to make him look like a bully easily. And if that happens, I think he would lose. And I think, you know, we talked about this from the very beginning with Harris in that, you know, we've been pretty bullish on her chances to win this primary. because of her kind of unique skill set.
Starting point is 00:55:47 That being said, she has not been tested in this sort of spotlight before. She had a great first debate, but that doesn't mean that she's going to be able to perform like that every time. She has, she's won one, you know, she won a Senate race in 2016, remember? She's not, she's not been around that long. No, and nor she, but she has the experience of being in front of a jury. And she's used to, she's used to winning regular people over, right? You know, and your job as a prosecutor is not just, to come up and be prepared for every line of argument,
Starting point is 00:56:16 which is a big deal in a debate, but also be able to communicate to regular people with emotion to move them. And to be likable. That's right. And look, I don't think, a lot of people will tell you that she's not likable,
Starting point is 00:56:30 but she was able to do it for a pretty long time successfully. That does not mean this translates to a win in the election by any means. But we're talking about danger and percentages and what's her chances. And I think her chances are, you know, of all these candidates, she has this sort of skill set that is dangerous in an election. And which is why, of course, Democrats are throwing money at her like crazy. The other one they keep talking about is Buttigieg, who looks really bad in these polls,
Starting point is 00:56:57 did not seem to do very well. The judge isn't going to do it. It doesn't, you know, the thing about Buttigieg is, man, this guy cannot get an African-American to like him. It's amazing. I mean, it's a big part of this primary. And he'll, he can, every other group he's okay with. And then it gets to black voters and they're like 0%.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Has he tried to use the Joe Biden trick of using the word man a lot? Not enough. Yeah. Not enough. Hey, I'm Pete Buttigieg, man. Man. And man, I gotta tell you, man, it's going to be great, man. There's some interesting health care stuff in here we can go to as well.

Starting point is 01:01:54 here in Irving, Texas. Also, didn't we have a winner for the Hitler painting? We did. We sold the, so we hold the quote unquote winner, I think is the, little air quotes around that one. So the one who was Leanne Tohota. She is from Sholo, Arizona. She is a supporter of the Nazarene Fund and Mercury won.

All of the proceeds will go to pro-life movements. Two organizations will tell you about that coming up in just a second.
Starting point is 01:02:51 And so, so much more. in the news today. You're listening to Glenn Beck. You know, people think that they don't need a home security system because they got a, you know, I got a doorbell from Google. I got one of those doorbells that, you know, I can see everything that's going on. Yeah, well, the burglars are probably not going to use a doorbell, okay? I'm just saying they probably don't use a doorbell.
Starting point is 01:03:22 How do you know? I don't know that for sure, but I'm pretty sure. These are not the things, this is, the Simple Safe is not, you know, one of those, It's not a gadget. It is high quality, top quality. In fact, I think the best in the industry. Security system for your home. It's the winner of CNET's editor choice for home security.

And that hasn't gone up ever since I've been doing commercial. for them in over five years now. It is really inexpensive. It is really easy.

Get 15% off your system plus an HD security camera right now. Simply say Beck.com. Medicare for all, supposedly very popular. We're going to find out if it's popular the way the Democrats actually plan to implement it coming up.
Starting point is 01:04:30 So let's look at the poll numbers for the presidential campaign. This is the Glenn Beck program. I'm Glenn Beck. Stu Bergier is here. He's kind of a numbers freak and has been watching the polls. How stable are these polls, how accurate to think they are? I mean, it's, you know, they're polls and they're way ahead. When you talk about primary polling this far in advance, it does not mean.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Everything can change. Everything can change. But it is the state of the race at this moment. I think it's pretty well reflected in this. and it's not the only poll showing, for example, Harris doubling her support since the debate. Would you agree with me that Harris could very likely be the Democratic nominee if she can carry her skills into different arenas, like the economy and health care? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:25 I mean, she has work to do, but she's definitely, she has a really good chance of winning this thing. Again, remember, she was one of the people raising the most. money as well. You know, the prediction markets have her in first place now ahead of both Biden and Warren, Bernie Sanders, and fourth, and then, you know, Buttigieg down to fifth. You know, she has a really, she has a pathway now, right? Does John Hickenlooper have a pathway? Probably not, right? So the fact that you have a pathway to the nomination is a big deal. It's just that you can't look at one debate and say, I think about 42% of Democrats actually watch the debate. So, you know, more than half of Democrats who are likely to vote didn't even check it out.
Starting point is 01:06:10 That's how early we are in this. Could totally change. If Biden has a really good performance in debate number two, he'll probably hold on to this lead and expand it. He has an opportunity to not choke this away. Most people, you know, like all things being equal, that's where people land, right? That's where they started. We already had this guy. We think he can beat Trump.
Starting point is 01:06:30 For whatever reason, they gravitate. to Joe Biden, familiarity, probably being most prominent among them. Except not real familiarity. Once they watch him, their opinion is easily changed if he doesn't meet or exceed their expectations. This next debate, he's got to do well. One of the really interesting things, I think, for Republicans is to win the Democratic primary. You have to go so far left.
Starting point is 01:06:57 You put yourself in a position of not being able to come back to the center. Right. How do you come back and then go? to the American people and say, well, here's the things I've been saying for six months to win this primary. Now let me try to pitch them to you, and they're way out of step with everybody else. For example, one of the big things being floated by the Democrats is Medicare for All.
Starting point is 01:07:17 And there's a couple of different flavors of that. One of which is to replace private insurance completely. So you'd basically make private insurance illegal. And you would have, every single person would be on government insurance. This is something that even the Canadian. Supreme Court said was unconstitutional in Canada. But we're supposed to have it here. So now that's not, that's Bernie Sanders supported that.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Kamala Harris raised her hand to this question. She's had a an on again, off again relationship with this particular policy. She came out initially and supported it. Then she backed off of it. Then during the debate, she raised her hand with Bernie Sanders saying that she supported it. Then when asked again about it, she said, no, what she meant is that she would leave her own personal private insurance to go on the government plan. Oh, that wasn't the question.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Right. Now, when you read the wording of the question, you could theoretically have taken it that way, but it makes no sense in context, right? I mean, Bernie Sanders is the only other person raising his hand. It doesn't make any sense. Anyway, that policy is only supported by 21% of Americans. So to get to the left and get out to that Bernie Sanders, Bill de Blasio sort of area, and maybe which is a window ledge. Right. Which is, yes, it is a high, window ledge at the top of a high building with high winds. Only 21% is with you there. So that's a big, that's going to be really tough to pull back to the center when you come back to the debate.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Another thing that every single candidate raised their hand to was do we give government insurance to illegal immigrants? Every single candidate raised their hand and said, yes, we do. What do the American people think of that? 59% say no way. So it is a 59% say no. I think it's 38% said yes. Where do these 39% think we're going to get that money? I don't know that they put that much thought into it.
Starting point is 01:09:06 Okay, all right. Yes. It's not like a bridge too far, really, to think, huh, before I give something away, where am I getting the money for that? But apparently for 39% or maybe just 10%, maybe there are 29% of the people that are like, yeah, who were the richest nation in the world? and we might as well. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:09:33 The richest nation in the world is always a strange thing to say when you're 20 some odd trillion dollars in debt. Yeah, you know, Bernie Madoff was one of the richest people around for a very long time. How'd that work out? Wasn't really real, was it? That's kind of a major issue when you come down to these polls. Here's the thing. If Donald Trump can and his allies or the people who care about the Constitution,
Starting point is 01:09:58 If they can just teach people what socialism is, this isn't a hard race to win. Right. And that's the thing. Most pollsters ask very base level of questions. Like Medicare for All in this poll is they ask about it. And 56% of people say they like it. Well, when you drill down into those numbers, the policies actually being presented are not popular at all. But if you ask that sort of surface question, you have a nice talking point to go out in front of the media and say, people want this.
Starting point is 01:10:26 People want this. Well, everybody wants free. stuff. If you say to people like, hey, it's, you know, Medicare for all is great. And then you say, well, you know, maybe your taxes have to go up a little bit. Then it kind of comes down. Then you say, well, what if they come up two or $300 a month? You get down into the low, you know, 20s pretty darn fast because people theoretically would love. I mean, who wouldn't? I mean, if Medicare for all actually gave you good service and it was legitimately free, it was the air we breathe, of course it would be something that people would want. But it doesn't
Starting point is 01:10:58 give good service and it costs a fortune. So here's an example of drilling down. And there's some really disturbing things. There's a new poll out that claims four out of 10 American adults, 40% claim they prefer socialism to capitalism, which is really disturbing. Really disturbing. Now, let me give you some of the information on this. 45%, sorry, let me start it with millennials. About half of the millennials say they would prefer socialism,
Starting point is 01:11:29 45% of Gen Xers, more than one third of boomers, and one quarter of those 65 or older. So the older you get, the less inclined you are to like socialism. Stunningly, the more you've been exposed to it. Yes. The survey found significant portions of various population groups, unexpectedly leaning towards socialism. Those segments included one out of every five,
Starting point is 01:11:55 political conservatives, 21%. Now, I don't think you're a conservative issue for socialism. What you are is you are somebody who is a progressive Republican. One in six adults with a biblical worldview, 15%, one out of, uh, or sorry, more than four out of 10 residents in the south, 43%. Survey revealed, however, the term socialism is not widely understood. For instance, they found within the 2000 survey respondents, when they were asked whether they preferred capitalism or socialist, socialism, their answers were compared to their preferred form of government in specific governance situations.
Starting point is 01:12:40 Those who claim to prefer capitalism consistently chose the capitalist perspective in 17% of the situation tested, where a mere 2% of those who claim to prefer socialism consistently operate, uh, operate. for that form of government. So in other words, in every case, they would say, hey, do you want the government
Starting point is 01:13:01 doing this? You want the government doing this? Those who said they preferred capitalism only chose capitalism 17% of the time in all situations.
Starting point is 01:13:15 But when it came to socialism, only 2% who said they were for socialism claimed, yeah, that's what socialism means. I'm for that. So,
Starting point is 01:13:25 an overwhelming ratio of adults 12 to 1 say they prefer a nation with individual ownership of private property to one where all the property is owned by the government. That's 87% to 7%. Okay. That's a pretty wide margin. Notice that the Democrats are talking about that at this point. By a 6 to 1 ratio, Americans want government to take its direction from the people rather than to live in a nation where the population takes its direction from the government. That's 76 to 12.
Starting point is 01:14:02 Economically, there are six Americans who want a country featuring prices of goods based on the free market for every person who prefers to have the price goods determined by the government. So, free market systems, 75%, government price controls, etc., etc., 12%. Americans prefer a society based on self-reliance instead of government reliance by a 5 to 1 ratio, 69% to 14%. U.S. citizens are four times more likely to desire an economy based on private enterprise than one based upon government-run industries, 65% to 15%. This is where people have to understand the government will be running your health care. It's not going to be a private anything. Government will be running your health care.
Starting point is 01:14:52 Americans are more than three times likely to opt for a government with limited power and agenda defined and monitored by the public than a desire for a government with high ideals and unlimited authority to pursue those ideals. 19% actually say they want that, that a government has high ideals and ultimate power to implement those ideals. 67% say, no, thank you. People are twice as likely to want a government of servant leaders whose job is to discern and carry out the will of the people,
Starting point is 01:15:23 as opposed to a government of experts who have good intentions and substantial power to make decisions for the people. That's 60 to 28. So what you're finding here is that nobody really knows what socialism is. When asked where the U.S. is headed in the future, a plurality 40% said the United States will be a capitalist society, while half as many, 21% said it would be socialist, and three out of 10 said 29%. They had no idea where this country was headed.
Starting point is 01:15:59 But when they were asked which best describes the economy of the United States, two-thirds of adults said, we are a capitalist nation, 65%. One-eighth, 12% claimed the U.S. is socialist, and a larger share, 19% said, I absolutely have no idea. The economic system most closely aligned to your principles and principles taught in scriptures, four out of 10 said they didn't know.
Starting point is 01:16:33 The rest was split evenly between socialism and capitalism. 30% said that's more biblical socialists and 26% said capitalism. The more you don't believe in God, the higher the percentage is for you to believe in socialism. And there were 4% who believed the best thing that we could be is a communist country. So that's good. All the president really has to do is just really define what capitalism and what socialism really is. define the free market and freedom
Starting point is 01:17:15 and reiterate what these people are actually saying and I think you'll have a much easier road to hoe. Patriot Mobile reminds you that Google and YouTube are not just silencing conservatives online. They are also manipulating their algorithms to interfere with the 2020 election.

Is this the serenests is what they're called. They have found about 90. Some of them reaching the size of a Volkswagen beetle.

You know, yellow jackets don't lose their stinger. Yellow jackets also like to sting humans. They're not afraid of humans. Most bees and everything else don't like.
Starting point is 01:19:58 They only sting when, you know, they really have to because they die rather. They lose their stinger and they die. Yellow jackets, not so much. So they can sting you over and over again. And if you're swarmed by yellow jackets, you can die from that because they just keep stinging you. imagine a yellow jacket nest the size of a car. I saw one nest.
Starting point is 01:20:25 They took a picture of one of the nest that was in like this 56 Buick that had been in a barn and the windows rolled down and the entire interior was a nest. Oh gosh. They're saying if you stumble into one of these, back up. immediately and call a professional to go and destroy that nest. And people want natural things. Nature sucks. That's a perfectly good Buick ruined by yellow jackets.

And remember, chaos is the operative word. Who is the author of all chaos? If you're religious, you believe that that is a dark force, Satan, that is the author of chaos and discord. He sows these seeds because we can do greater damage than he could ever do. We'll tear each other apart.
Starting point is 01:25:11 So chaos is the word that you need to look for. anytime there's chaos that is not moving in the right direction. Portland is intentionally moving towards chaos. Now, you could give the mayor a break because, you know, he said he was going to be a law and order a guy, and then he got in, and Antifa surrounded his house and said, you know, we're going to take care of you and your children if you come out against you. us and he's been great with Antifa ever since. He loves Antifa. Now, a man of courage would have called the police and made sure that his family was safe and then he would have said,
Starting point is 01:25:58 and we're not going to put up with this kind of bullying in our town, but he didn't. Yesterday, he came out and gave a statement. The police immediately came back and said, yeah, yeah, He needs to tell us that we can go do these things. He said that they didn't want to interfere with Anafo because they're afraid that, you know, that would just, you know, set them on fire and it would just, it would just really irritate them. Oh, no. Not irritate, not have them get violent. You know, you could do that with shoplifters.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Man, if I'm just going to cause trouble and cause a scene in the store. and I know the store says, we just don't want any disruptions, just let it go. Gosh, what am I doing? Where am I? I'm at that store, stealing stuff all day long.
Starting point is 01:26:55 Upsetting criminals has not typically been the focus of how you design laws. We want to avoid hurting the feelings of a particular criminal. Thus? Thus?
Starting point is 01:27:10 Oppression. Oh, oppression. Right. Okay, yes, oppression. I mean, that's why we have oppression right now. I mean, they're not. oppressing anybody in Portland.
Starting point is 01:27:19 And... Not even the guy with his brain bleeding. He wasn't oppressed at all. What about his rights? Does he get any? What about the elderly guy with a crowbar to the side of the head? Does that guy get any rights or no?
Starting point is 01:27:32 The rights to a crowbar? I would be suing the city for every dime. I'm that guy. I'd be suing them. If I'm Andy, Andy, no. I'm doing the same thing. I'm suing the city. Where were you?
Starting point is 01:27:46 I warned you. I'm on tape warning you. Help me. They are harassing me. It's getting worse. You did nothing. You weren't even around. I have a brain bleed in the hospital.
Starting point is 01:28:01 Why? Because you weren't around. Where were you? That is a pretty good question. And I think they would lose that in court. If it was, you know, as long as it wasn't held in. I mean, Portland is becoming Chicago and Al Capone is Antifa. They're running the city.
Starting point is 01:28:26 Whatever Antifa decides to do, they want to close streets down? They'll close streets down. Who else could get away with that? You think you could close your neighborhood block street down without the police shutting you down? With everybody in the neighborhood saying, no, we wanted to shut this street down. We were having a block party. You couldn't do that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:42 A friend of mine does a party every year where they actually block their street off. and they live in the middle of like, you know, there's no car traffic at all where they are. But they block the street off and they do like a little neighborhood run and they have to get permits from the city to be able to block off this street that like four cars go down per year.
Starting point is 01:29:02 Correct. You couldn't do it. No, you can't do it. You can't do it. But they can and they can do it without any problems. We've seen how many times have we played these videos where people are trying to take a left on a public street?
Starting point is 01:29:15 Antifah standing there. in front of these people trying to take a left, forcing them to go right when they don't want to go right. And there's a lot of times police present that will do nothing. Well, they just will not stop it because they are worried about, I mean, this is the inmates running the asylum. And that is, it really is in Portland. And, you know, they've elected now.
Starting point is 01:29:38 They've been able to elect someone. It was like, did you watch Wild Wild Country, the documentary on Netflix that came out, I guess last, last? year and it's a story of the cult that went into Oregon and moved all their like, you know, all these thousands of like people in this like cult, which was. Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah. And so one of the things they did was they just started, once they started, you know,
Starting point is 01:30:00 budding heads with the local residents, they decided to just start running their own people and all of them voting these people into office. And that's they eventually changed the name of the town and changed the names of the streets and all of this stuff because this is essentially what Portland is. doing. The people who are, who want Antifa being a main presence in their city are the ones running it. So they look the other way every single time when these things go wrong. Well, you have Justice Democrats. You see who Justice Democrats just got elected in New York? It was Alexander Ocasio-Cortez. Yeah. She's from Brooklyn, right? Queens. Queens. Queens.
Starting point is 01:30:41 That's right, Queens. So they just got another person elected in Queens. And this one's great. Now, Justice Democrats are the ones who got Ocasio Cortez elected. They put out, this is all verified. They put out basically a casting call looking for somebody that could run
Starting point is 01:31:00 for Congress. Akosio Cortez, this is all in her documentary. Casio Cortez's brother says, oh, my sister would be great. So she convinced her to go to talk to Justice Democrats. They look at all these people, interview all these people, and they pick
Starting point is 01:31:15 Casio-Cortez and then they run her campaign. And they are the ones that were behind it. Okay. She's a she's a shill. It didn't start with her. It started with Justice Democrats and they went for casting goal. Well, I've done another one. This time for the district attorney's office. The district attorney won in her own tweet, she said, that the reason why she ran is because her great coalition of ex-cons, illegal immigrants, and sex workers. Those are the people going door to door. The swing vote. The swing vote. The swing vote. The swing vote. So the ex-cons, the sex workers, and
Starting point is 01:32:05 the illegal immigrants were the ones campaigning for the district attorney, the chief lawmaker. So now, Justice Democrats have gotten elected to the office of the chief enforcer of the law, somebody who says she's not going to enforce the law. And she won. And this has been a strategy from Democrats for a while. We covered years ago the Secretary of State Project, which was similar. Basically, the idea being put radicals in the mold of George Soros, who was a big funder of the organization. to get into the positions to make the decisions if there is any election stuff to deal with. Like if it's a close election and you have recounts, you have election irregularities,
Starting point is 01:32:56 you have a Justice Democrat, you have a Secretary of State Project person there in the position of power to go in and make those decisions on the close calls. The same thing here, right? when if you want an Antifa to thrive and you have a law and order person in charge, well then they're going to actually enforce the law. But if the reason that person is in charge is because groups like Antifa and their close associates and allies
Starting point is 01:33:26 gave you, you know, hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars to win that race. Or just the manpower to do it. Or just the manpower and get you into office. You owe them your job. You owe them your career. Of course you're not going to crack down on them. They're the good guys.
Starting point is 01:33:42 But this is even worse. This is Justice Democrats who want all of that stuff. Their close allies are Marxist revolutionaries. They picked. So it's not like, hey, you owe us. No, they went out and found somebody that believed what they believed and would do what they say they want to be done. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:02 So this is a handpicked person. I'm telling you, it's just going to boil down. You're going to look at New York City, and that little enclave is just going to burn itself down to the ground. And everybody will say, what happened? What happened? Oh, I don't know. You had Marxists running it. How is that going to work out?
Starting point is 01:34:28 I mean, it's, it's, it is really getting crazy. and by the way, this Justice Democrat won against a Democrat, a five-term Democrat. So they're not really taking on the right. They're taking on the Democrats. There is a civil war going on. And because the media won't talk about it, that most Democrats have no idea how radical their party. really is becoming.
Starting point is 01:35:05 The inmates are running the asylum. Do you know that in the days of our founders, 50% of the population was in agonizing pain. We didn't live past really 40 in most cases, you know, before modern medicine. And I think part of it is, you can't take it anymore. imagine the the the the the the headaches imagine the headaches imagine you know the cut fingers anything that you use just aspirin for 50% of the population was in agonizing pain no thank you
Starting point is 01:35:59 we're in modern times there is no reason for pain however the pain killers that we have many of the strongest ones are narcotics. You get to fentanyl and it's a nightmare. That is an end-of-life drug only. That's what it's supposed to be used for.
Starting point is 01:36:21 At the end of your life, go ahead, take them out of pain because you'll, I mean, it'll kill you eventually. Well, you need something natural. You need something good. You need something that will actually help your body on multiple fronts
Starting point is 01:36:35 by reducing inflammation. My quality of life has gone through the roof because of relief factor. You take it three times a day, take it as directed, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You take that three times a day and you will feel dramatically better. 70% of the people who take it do feel better. Relieffactor.com. Go there now. Try their three-week quick start. Relieffactor.com, 800, 583,84.
Starting point is 01:37:04 It's relief factor.com. We break for 10 second station ID. So Stu is going to go on the museum tour with me today. Very excited about that. Yeah, are you? Yeah, I am. I mean, it's amazing stuff out there, and I have not been able to go through it yet. So I'm going to give him a tour so he can promptly forget it for his tour on Friday.
Starting point is 01:37:40 You and Jeffrey are giving a couple of tours, I think, on Friday. Our tours are the best tours Because you get the information It's sure it's secondhand Usually I'm just like listening to Right You'll get about every third point Yeah
Starting point is 01:37:55 But I'll listen to like David Barton And if you've ever seen David Barton speak He says 943 words per minute So if I'm giving you a third of that You're doing really well Yeah Yeah And then we add on to things
Starting point is 01:38:09 You know And to our tour that you don't get from the other tours. Like Jeffrey saying, there will be some grunting. That will be present in the tour, sure. I think Jeffrey also has like push pops and things like that stored all around the studio.
Starting point is 01:38:27 So you're probably going to stop and get some push pops along the way. There will be some treats, most likely around. You can ask Jeffrey about how God seemingly is trying to kill him. He's had a heart attack and had a tornado hit his house within the last. year. Oh, when you say tornado. When you say tornado,
Starting point is 01:38:45 I mean, it was a category zero. But it did rip the roof off of a good chunk of his house. There's still a zero. Well, I mean, it hit Jeffie's house, of course. Yeah, I mean, it's like the Little Pig's house that was made of straw. It was a category
Starting point is 01:39:01 zero. He told me that the other day. I said, what, what, you know, what level was this? And he went, uh, zero. I said, well, zero. Oh, it wasn't even categorized as a tornado, but it ripped his roof off of his house. They do have category zero tornadoes. And I will say, isn't it appropriate, though, that a zero ripped up, would hit Jeffrey?
Starting point is 01:39:26 Yes, that is appropriate. Yeah. But, I mean, it legitimately did, like, take the roof off of a chunk of his house. I've seen the pictures? Yeah. I mean, it's bad. Yeah. It's really bad.
Starting point is 01:39:36 By the way, just an update for those of you are fans of the show. Pat's doing really well. Really, really well. Right. He had a big surgery on Wednesday. Or Friday it was, right? A damn doctor owes me money. I said, take out the vocal cords while you're in there.
Starting point is 01:39:51 You know, do something, do something fun. You know, something you've never done. And you're like, ooh, who knew? Who knew? Your stomach could be sewn to your mouth in a surgery like that. What a mistake. Yeah. Didn't do any of that.
Starting point is 01:40:06 Are you sure they didn't, like, implant one of the aliens from the movie aliens, like in his stomach so that later on, like, could be, while he's on the air one day. Could be, just bursts out. It just bursts out. Yeah, yeah, that would be good. That would go viral. That would completely go viral.
Starting point is 01:40:19 Yeah, so he should be back. He's got like seven weeks of recovery, but he was up and around and feeling good. He said, you know, he's got feeling back in his arm again. He just had four discs removed from his neck. And for some reason, they can do the neck quite well, but they can't do the lower back. I don't know why.
Starting point is 01:40:38 But that's what, I mean, ever since I've known Pat, I think the first year we knew each other, he was having back surgery and it did not work out well. And he's always had this problem ever since I've known him and he's miserable. Pat would be a different person if he didn't have this back issue. He is dealing with it all the time. All the time. Really serious pain.
Starting point is 01:41:02 Yeah. That's not saying. I mean, it has been, ever since I've known him, he's been destroyed by it. And this isn't going to get rid of that, by the way. we should point out. No, he's still going to be miserable. And that might be one of the things you'd like about the show, Pat Grant Leashed. Is he miserable?
Starting point is 01:41:15 He's miserable. He is the guy who's just like, get off my lawn. He's that guy. You crazy kids, what are you doing with your hippie talking dope smoking those marijuana cigarettes talking about socialism? Get up my lawn. That's what I love about the show. Yeah, me too. I want him to yell at the kids about socialism.
Starting point is 01:41:36 Yeah. So he'll be back yelling at kids about socialism. Very soon. Very soon. You won't miss that. All right. So anyway, if you want to come to our museum, please do. It is Fourth of July weekend, and I can't think of a better way to spend it with your kids.
Starting point is 01:41:47 We try to do something special. We haven't done anything special for the last few years, and I don't like it. I mean, Fourth of July was always a very important holiday in my family, and we've just kind of lost that tradition. I remember one of the first years you decided to go to a town that you picked entirely because it was white near Cleveland. At least that's what the local paper accused. accused you of. They said, you remember this? Yeah, I remember saying, can we find the whitest town in America? I remember those meetings over and over again. Well, where's Whitesville? And we found it located. It was near Cleveland, surprisingly. This year, we're going to be here at the Mercury Studios celebrating
Starting point is 01:42:24 4th of July with you and your family. Get your tickets now at Mercury1.org. That's Mercury1.org. It's open from July 4th through the 7th. You're listening to Glenn Beck.

And this is why they are now, the number one sales company on window treatments on the internet because they've made it super, super easy because they're like, no, okay, okay, all right.

Come to the museum.
Starting point is 01:43:57 Go to Mercury1.org to get your tickets right now. Just an interesting side note, I guess. The Showtime is doing a Fox News series. And I'm sure it's absolutely accurate. It's called the loudest voice. And Russell Crow is playing Roger Ailes, started this last weekend. And it showed the beginning of the Hannity show when Roger Ailes hired. I'd love to talk to Sean to see if he even saw it.
Starting point is 01:44:39 I didn't see it. I'm sure he didn't either, but how accurate he's. he thinks this is. Because you have some you have some interesting episodes coming up as well. I do. I do.
Starting point is 01:44:50 Well, I mean, I'm just, I'm looking at the cast here and a Josh McDermott who was in Walking Dead, Twin Peaks, among other shows, playing you in this particular series. We do need to, of course,
Starting point is 01:45:06 have clips of this. Ready. I'm sure it's going to be very flattering. You know, how could they portray? you in a way that isn't flattering. That's what I'm, that's what my question would do. I can't. I can't. I can't. Or at or at least more negative than it's already been. You know what I mean? What's weird is looking at Russell Crow in Roger Ailes' office, were you ever in his office? Maybe, maybe once.
Starting point is 01:45:30 Hiding under his desk. I have a, I have a Me Too story coming out soon. So I don't want to, I don't want to break that news yet. I want to ruin it for everybody. But you look at him in the office and stuff, and at least the pictures, I haven't seen the movie, the picture looks like his, office and and it looks like Roger from a distance. Yeah, I mean, this is, I mean, this is interesting. It's been interesting, too. They waited until Ailes died before doing all of these things. There's a big documentary that came out.
Starting point is 01:46:01 Wasn't Netflix, I think, a documentary? You were in that too about Roger Ailes. And now that he's gone and no longer can defend himself, there's a lot of. Well, but it's not, I mean, wait a minute. No, I won't be fair. This book came out while he was alive. book it's this series is based on. Yeah. And the documentary, I thought was reasonably fair.
Starting point is 01:46:23 They definitely took, they went to great pains to not just show the bad side of Roger Rails, which was usually they will not do that in these things. They showed that he was really a genius and did do a lot of amazing things in the industry, not just related to Fox News. I mean, his whole life was basically. He was an Emmy Award winner. Yeah. I mean, he won, or not an Emmy, a Tony.
Starting point is 01:46:44 Right. He won a Tony. I mean, that's crazy. He was a Broadway guy. His first play that he ever did on Broadway was called Hot L. Baltimore. And Norman Lear bought it from him. And he's the guy who found it. And Norman Lear bought it from him.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Bought the Rites, did a TV show based on it. And it won a Tony. I mean, the guy was no dummy when it came to entertainment. Now, this has a pretty big cast. too. Russell Crowe, Sienna Miller, Seth MacFarlane, Naomi Watts, is in it, all on Showtime. I was thinking, though, about this. You've had an interest.
Starting point is 01:47:21 We need to go back through these at some point because the stuff comes and goes so fast that you forget about it. But there's been a lot of portrayals of our own Glenn Beck over the years. I mean, you had two, I think two episodes of The Simpsons, at least one of South Park. You had Jason. I don't know if I ever saw the South Park one. Really? Uh-uh. Yeah, it was Cartman.
Starting point is 01:47:43 And that was the most accurate portrayal, I thought. I mean, it's basic, it's almost like you've based your persona on Cartman. Yeah, I believe about it. Yeah, I believe that. Yeah. I can see that. Yeah. You're growing into the role.
Starting point is 01:47:57 Let's put it that way. Yes. You also have Jason Sedakis, who did, who played you, I think it was him on Saturday Live, right? A bunch of times. Yeah. Over, and now you have this series, which is about Roger Ailes. There was something else I saw recently.
Starting point is 01:48:15 There was a Boston legal. Remember Boston legal that show? You were on that. Sometimes they do it and they just like portray it a Glenn Beck-esque character. Yeah. Which they don't actually call Glenn Beck, which is blatantly based on you. You're writing on a chalkboard saying crazy conspiracy theories. The one where he became a TV show host. And he was crying all the time and writing it a chalkboard and using crazy things.
Starting point is 01:48:41 Like I think he had a bacon. or something like that and he was like this United States Was it a family guy too on that? I don't remember. I feel like there was a family guy where maybe Peter portrayed you as well. We should find them all because I don't know if I've... That would be a good web page, just have all those in the same place.
Starting point is 01:49:01 Yeah. Because remember when this was all happening, we were, you know, people would say, hey, you know, see Saturday Night and live, we're like, no. Oh, they did a big sketch on you. Huh. And then we'd move on. Right. And so there was like so many.
Starting point is 01:49:13 shows that did stuff that we never even saw. Yeah, you got mentioned on Saturday Night Live during the election during 2016, and I remember you know, they do like four new episodes a year, I think, Saturday Live at this point. It's very tough. It's very difficult for them to come up with those three terrible
Starting point is 01:49:28 sketches that they come up with. But they, it was a sketch about the election and you were talked about it and it had a decent, you know, like 30 or 45 seconds of one of these mologues about yours, you know, whatever you were doing at the time. And I didn't see it until the rerun.
Starting point is 01:49:44 And I'm just like, this is amazing. Like here, I work with this guy every day. And Saturday Night Live. Remember, this is Saturday Night Live, the one that said, you know, Russia, I can see it from my house. It like changes the course of elections. Now is so invisible that they're talking about a guy I sit across from every day and I didn't even know about it.
Starting point is 01:50:02 Like, that is a bizarre change. Everything has changed. Really has. I mean, 60 minutes. 60 minutes. Remember when 60 minutes would set the news? There were two things that set the news. for a week, and that was the New York Times and 60 Minutes.
Starting point is 01:50:17 The New York Times still kind of sets the, you know, the pace for most of the media news. But 60 Minutes, you never hear anybody talking about that anymore. And sometimes they do really interesting things. I mean, 60 Minutes has a lot of liberal bias, but some of the reporting has nothing to do with politics. And some of it's really interesting. You know, the other one... I can't remember the last time I watched the 60 Minutes. I just watched something on there recently, and it was pretty...
Starting point is 01:50:43 interesting. On actually TV? No, no, it was on the website. When's the last time you actually sat down and watched a network TV show? Like a major network TV show? Yeah, like ABC, NBC, Fox. And I'm assuming you're not going to allow me to include like the NBA finals. No.
Starting point is 01:51:00 Or Sunday night football. Yeah. Because if that's the case, I think mine would be the Super Bowl. Right. And before that would be the Super Bowl. It's your Super Bowl. Geez I'm trying to think of one that I've won
Starting point is 01:51:19 I honestly I'm having trouble even naming them I you know Saturday Night Live I maybe there was I can't know Name the Thursday night lineup In the 80s or 90s Of NBC
Starting point is 01:51:35 Are your friends in Seinfeld and you know Name it in order Can you do it? I don't know. I'm going to do it. In order. But, I mean, in the 80s, it was like Cosby and, right, all those. Cosby, family ties.
Starting point is 01:51:49 Then it was, Cosby Family Ties. Then it was, oh, shoot. Cheers. Right. Right. What a freaking line up. Then night court. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:52:01 Then L.A. Law. I couldn't tell you two shows back to back on network television any day of the week, any network. I can't either I mean I know like a Sunday Fox has family guys still on and the Simpsons still on That's probably the only one
Starting point is 01:52:21 That in 60 minutes because they've been running Ever since Right But those are like obviously I mean I think family guys in it's like 20th season or something Simpsons is what 30th Yeah I think about how culture has changed since that came on
Starting point is 01:52:35 It's incredible But I mean we could all sit here and rattle off Netflix shows Right I mean like that That is, look at the change. That is amazing. Remember Netflix, the thing I love about Netflix is, first of all, they're just a DVD company, right? They're mailing DVDs to people's houses. That's how they start.
Starting point is 01:52:52 And all of a sudden, they make that announcement and they switched over to streaming. And at the time, this is when we were kind of first getting into this with the Blaze. People thought it was insane. You'd had to go in like everything would buffer and it wouldn't work and no one wanted to deal with it. And then they had that time that they, I think, I want to say they raised prices. and there was story after story after story about how they were over, they've let down all their subscribers, this is going away,
Starting point is 01:53:18 and then here they are. Now, you know, I mean, really the enforce of entertainment is, I mean, there's no one even close to magic. I mean, Amazon has a place there in Hulu, I guess, but it's really just Netflix. And the- Amazon is pretty good.
Starting point is 01:53:33 It's secondary, but it's there. It's secondary, but it's there. But the selection for, for, More, I think the selection on Amazon is better than Netflix, but the Netflix, you know, special movies, you know, Netflix only, those are probably better than the Amazon things. And the crazy part about that is Netflix at one point, in a moment of desperation, their founder went in and almost sold Netflix to Blockbuster for, I want to say it was like $75 million. It was like, I mean, on the scale of what it is today, nothing. And they were in a point where it was like things were not going well and they were wondering whether they were going to make it. They met, had several meetings, and Blockbuster was the one that said no.
Starting point is 01:54:24 It didn't think. Blockbuster said no. Yeah. That's an unfortunate. Do you know there's still one blockbuster left? It's just the one, yeah. There's one. It's in Oregon.
Starting point is 01:54:32 It's the last one left. I mean, I don't know how. I mean, do they own? the entire light of the entire company just end up in that one. Like franchisee is like, yeah, I'm the president of Blockbuster. And hey, don't forget, return that video. Be kind, rewind. Right now, in honor of Fourth of July,

Starting point is 01:56:17 You can only find it at simplysafebeck.com. That's simply safebeck.com. Welcome to the program. We're just looking at some of the numbers here on the border. It appears that when you actually put national guard troops at the U.S. Mexico border, things change. Mexico sent 15,000 National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexican border and then froze the bank accounts of 26 human traffickers with probable links with human trafficking
Starting point is 01:56:49 and illegal aid to migrant caravans. So here's what happened. Apparently, the number of apprehensions has dropped by nearly 35%. So all we need is to say we're going to enforce the law, and the people on the other side saying they're going to enforce the law and look what happens. Now that is a different way of looking at things, you know? Who would have thought of enforcing the law? It's a radical idea.
Starting point is 01:57:27 Do you think it could work? I don't think it could work. I don't think it could work. It just doesn't seem possible. But I guess, you know, we live in a golden age. and maybe this will actually work. I don't know. We have so many other more important things to look at.
Starting point is 01:57:44 Like, for example, setting our journalists to find Facebook posts where people make fun of public figures. Amen. That is journalism. Can you imagine tracking down such a thing on the internet? No. People saying nasty things about public figures? Especially when the politicians are so good.
Starting point is 01:58:06 Yeah. You know, when they're saying when, because the politicians, they know, they know what they're talking about. And we're, we're again doubting them on the border. We doubted them about Antifa. Yeah. And do you remember when all of the media and the politicians were saying great things about Antifa? I do kind of remember that. Let me refresh.
Starting point is 01:58:31 Here it is. Flashback montage, please, of the Antifa lovers in the press. Tonight, all punches are not equal morally. In the eyes of the law, yes, but in the eyes of good and evil, here's the argument. They are strictly principled anti-fascists, and what they see in the Trump administration and what they see happening in this country, they see the neo-fascism that we see. And they've taken a principal stand to stand against white supremacists and white nationalists wherever they may show up.
Starting point is 01:59:05 It says it right in the name, Antifa, Antifa. fascism, which is what they were there, fighting. Listen, there's no organization's perfect. There was some violence. I think that a lot of people recognize that when pushed, self-defense is a legitimate response to white supremac and neo-Nazi violence. The problem is to equate the violence
Starting point is 01:59:23 in reaction against bigotry with the bigotry itself is to misunderstand the fact that when you go to cancer treatment, the radiation is tough treatment, but it is meant to remove the cancer. There's a group of anti-fascist. anti-fascist called the black block, which do tend to get violent. Their idea is, look, nonviolence hasn't worked, and we are going to try to stop this. But they wouldn't have been there. They wouldn't have been anywhere near there had it not been for the fact that white supremacist,
Starting point is 01:59:51 neo-Nazis were out scaring the living day loud out of most of the people in that town. Thuggishness is thuggishness wherever it comes from politically, and we should be the first to call it out. I disagree. That's solid. I disagree. I disagree. Guess which one was invited back, I'm sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:00:11 For more interviews later. All right. Tonight, David Barton is joining us. David's been a whirlwind tour. He was just on with Stephen Crowder. He was on with Ben Shapiro on his podcast over the weekend. And he's appearing tonight on my television show. We're going to talk a little bit about liberty, what it means, freedom and what it means.
Starting point is 02:00:32 And what our choices are ahead of us is we get ready for the July 4th weekend. and our independence weekend tonight, 5 o'clock only on the Blaze TV. You're listening to Glenn Beck.
