Hey, welcome to the podcast. We've got a great one for you today. You don't want to miss a single second of it.
Also want to remind you that we're doing Restoring the Covenant. That is a big event on July 4th in Gettysburg.
It's kind of like restoring honor and restoring courage and restoring love that we did.
Dallas Cowboys Stadium was sold out 500,000 people on the mall in Washington, D.C. This one has a limited amount of space.
There's only about 30,000 people that can come.
It's free.
You don't have to buy anything, but you do have to register if you want to come.
And if you do want to come, there's all kinds of other events that you can attend,
other things that you can get your family into that do have a price to it.
It's a seven-day or a one-day event, depending on what you want to do.
Camp, stay in a hotel, you know, whatever you want to do.
It's Gettysburg, July 4th weekend.
And the week preceding that, just find out all the information at glenbeck.com slash restore.
I'll give you a couple things coming up in the podcast.
We go into the media's unbelievable coverage of what went on with Soleimani in Iran.
It's just so it's despicable.
In your opinion.
Well, that's true.
It's also my opinion that men are men and women are women.
There's a couple genders.
Well, just because of, and you'll understand Punjab.
That's the only reason that does explain a lot of it.
It does explain a lot of it.
And that and so much more on today's podcast.
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
You know, I was not a fan of the statement that President Trump made that the American press is an enemy of the people.
However, today I'd say I don't think he went far enough.
And I'll explain as we go to Iran with ABC.
News in one minute.
This is the
Glimbeck program. It is
a good thing. We have the
media on the
case to show us what's
really happening in
Iran. Martha
Radditz, she's an ABC
news reporter. She was
in Iran.
And she had
just great coverage
of what was really going on.
Let's listen in.
A powerful combination of grief and anger with shouts of death to America echoing through the streets around us.
This morning mourners filling the streets of Iran's capital of Tehran for the funeral of General Soleimani killed by that U.S. drone strike last week.
Aerial images capturing the sea of Iranians, hacking the streets to pay tribute to a man revered by many here.
Trump made a big mistake. He killed our hero.
Soleimani's image everywhere, the impact of his death profound.
The crowds are massive and emotional. There are many tears here, many signs with Soleimani's picture on them.
But the message is also very clear. These people want revenge.
As we made our way through the streets of Tehran, people surrounding us, shouting death to a revenge.
America. We will have very hard
rebrand of Mr. Trump.
Inside the funeral service,
the emotion just as powerful.
The Supreme Leader of Iran
weeping and praying over a coffin
draped in the Iraqi flag.
Oh, no, no.
Man, I feel bad about this.
Okay, for, let's just, let's play a
personal game.
Let's say,
let's go into time tunnel, and let's
say this is 1941,
42.
and the United States kills Himmler or Gehring.
And the news goes to Germany.
What do you expect to find?
What would you expect to find?
I would expect, perhaps, many, many people mourning the death of their hero.
And calling for the death of America.
Yeah.
Okay.
Now, Soleimani, I mean, Gehring?
Yeah.
Himmler?
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
I mean, I could look at Himmler and I could, well, let's just, let's just go to, let's go to, uh, uh, Himmler, uh, Heinrich Lutpold Himmler.
Lutpold, it's a solid middle name.
It's a solid, yeah, it is.
Okay, he was one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany.
Okay.
Main architect of the final solution.
Well, this guy's the main architect of the destruction of Israel and the destruction of Israel.
and the destruction of all Jews.
So it's kind of the same thing.
A member of the Reserve Battalion during World War I.
He didn't see active service, blah, blah, blah.
But then he developed the SS.
What is that?
Stormtroopers.
What do you think that is?
I mean, he's Himmler.
Now, would we be mourning the death of Himmler?
Would we expect to see Hitler weeping over the coffin?
Of course we would.
Would we expect Hitler to be saying, oh my gosh, this is a, this is a travesty.
This is absolutely wrong.
The question is, would the American press play along with it?
Or would they have the guts to say what was really going on?
Well, let me answer that question for you.
Christian Science Monitor.
The train arrived punctually.
Not long after Adolf Hitler's rise in power and traffic was well regulated.
Germany has policemen in new smart blue uniforms that keep order.
I have so far found quietness, order, and civility.
They're not the slightest sign of anything unusual afoot.
Christian Science Monitor.
As for the harrowing stories of Jews being mistrified,
treated. They seem to only apply to a small portion of the Jews, but most of which were not in any way
molested. Let's see. Let's go to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. There have been indications of
moderation on Hitler's part. The Cleveland Press on January 31st of 33 said appointment of Hitler
as the German Chancellor may not be such a threat to world peace as it appears at first
blush because there's a new moderation in Hitler on his rise to power.
The New York Evening Post, they report that there is an indeterminate number of Jews that have
been killed. Hundreds of Jews have been beaten and tortured. Thousands of Jews have been or will
be deprived of their livelihood, all because of Germany's 600,000 Jews that are now living
in terror. There's one that's telling the truth. Yeah, but the New York Times,
said, German violence has been spent.
Prosperity and happiness is soon going to prevail.
The New York Herald Tribune's Berlin correspondent asserted that while situation of German jury was an unhappy one,
the atrocity stories are exaggerated and unfounded.
The American press did exactly the same thing with Nazi Germany.
They listened to the propaganda because they listened with their American ears.
Now, that's not what's happening today.
They're not listening with their American ears.
They're listening with their ears that hate Donald Trump.
Donald Trump said that the press is an enemy of the people.
And I didn't like that because I don't like anything that smacks of going against the First Amendment.
I just don't like it.
However, today, I don't think he went far enough.
Let's look what the American press is for.
The American press, many of them up until the very end, were for Hitler.
They were for Mussolini.
They were for Stalin.
They were for the Russian Revolution.
They were against America with the Soviet Union.
I grew up in the 70s and 80s.
I remember hearing from the press how great the Soviet Union really was, how it was Ronald Reagan, who was the real warmonger and was going to get us all killed.
Gee, something else happened.
I've heard from this press how great Chavez is.
I've heard from this press, Castro was a hero to his people.
I've heard that about Amadinajad.
I've heard all of the bad things that we did to Iran that, yeah, we did.
We put the Shah in and we helped him stay.
Should we be involved in other people's countries?
No.
But wait a minute.
Then why is it you have such a hard time?
Because that's what they would say.
We did all these horrible things all around the world.
I agree with you.
We should butt out of other people's business.
However, why won't you look into what Caramella and everybody else involved in the Trump phone call are actually doing in the State Department?
Why won't you talk about how the Arab Spring was pretty much run from our Oval Office?
How come you didn't have a problem with what happened in Libya?
the only time you seem to be for anything
is when it means big oppressive government
doing something to the people
or to the people of a foreign country
because your leader is there.
I don't think Americans feel this way.
I think Americans, I hope.
I don't even know who America is anymore right now.
I know who a good portion are that are
silent, but I think a good number of silent Americans who better not be silent much longer,
they feel like, for instance, we got to get out of Iraq. We got to get out of Iraq. Let's stop this war.
I think most Americans feel that way. Now I'd like to throw a wrinkle in that. You cannot
get out of Iraq today. You can't. Why?
Because what did Ronald Reagan do?
Because he listened to the State Department buffoons.
What did he do when the marine barracks in Beirut were bombed?
He was told you'll make things much, much worse.
So just pull out, just get out of there.
Well, what did that do?
We now know that Osama bin Laden saw that and went,
whoa, you can make this giant move.
if we move out of Iraq today six months eight months a year from now maybe different but if we move out of Iraq
because there's nothing more I want you've got to get out of Iraq don't tempt us to do the things
that we want to do because I'd like to get out of Iraq you know if the Iraqi people decide
how America's a problem fine you won't see us in your neighborhood again that's my feeling
bu-bye. Too much blood, too much treasure, and you don't want freedom. So go ahead. However,
what we're talking about today is teaching the Middle East and especially Iran that they can move
us. We've already taught them that they can take our embassy. They did it in 1979 until Reagan was sworn in.
then they did it in Benghazi.
The guy we killed is responsible for Benghazi.
That was his plan.
You didn't know about it.
Why?
Because the press never reported it.
They just went with a big state guy that they just love.
And the big state woman, Hillary Clinton, who they just love.
Then they attack our embassy in Iraq?
What are we supposed to do?
Just take it?
they have somebody a Himmler or a Gehring
who is planning on killing our troops
and is a record, a long record of killing our troops
beyond the misery and the torture
that he has provided all over the Middle East
and our press mourns
our press gets there right away to cover this funeral
as they should cover the funeral.
Let me ask you this.
Martha, are you a strong woman?
You believe in equal women's rights and you believe in all of that and
and you believe that you can do anything.
Girl power.
I bet you do.
Then why are you wearing your headscarf?
You know you're in a group of people.
If your headscarf blows off,
they kill you because you're not really fully a person.
You're just a woman.
And you're making excuse.
uses for these people, you're not an enemy of the American people. You are an enemy of anyone who
stands up for freedom. You should cover that. And I'd even give you a break if you were covering it
just without any kind of commentary on it. You were just covering it as long as ABC News was saying
beforehand, we had to make special deals to get in here so we could cover this.
and special deals so we could get her out afterwards.
We'd understand.
But you are an organ for evil.
And that's all of the press.
You've done it before.
This is nothing new.
America, wake the hell up.
Where was the press?
Where was Martha Raddits and ABC News
when millions of people all over the country
were protesting their oppressive government.
Where were they?
They couldn't even, they didn't go there and cover that.
And for good reason, you'd be killed if you were there covering it.
But where were they when it would, the cause was freedom?
I have no doubt that millions of people in Iraq are religious zealots.
and believe that the Islamic way of life is the way to go.
Well, good for them.
They're wrong when it comes to human rights.
You want to do that yourself?
You go do that yourself.
But don't oppress anybody else as you're doing it.
And that's what this is.
This is a state that oppresses people, kills people.
Where were they when the Islamic regime, just last year,
again was hanging people because they were gay.
This is who you are standing up for.
Now let me tell you what the real people in Iran feel.
And I know this because I read from the dissidents,
not today, but over the years.
Soleimani is a popular guy with the zealots.
Yes, he is, because he's spread.
this ideology all around the world, and he's doing it with force, brutal force.
So, yeah, there's a lot of hardliners that love this guy, millions of them perhaps.
But the average person, just like the average person here in America, just wants to be left
alone, just wants to have a better life, just wants to be able to pursue their dreams.
They just want a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
That's what they want.
That's ingrained in all of us because of us.
God gives it to all of us.
And they see Soleimani as the guy who's taking the bread out of their children's mouths.
Because he was getting a billion, with a B, a billion dollars a month.
To do what?
To go foment foreign wars.
To foment terror all around the Middle East.
And the average person is looking to their government,
saying you're spending a billion dollars do you know that it cost me 70% more now this month to
be able to buy bread for my children we could use some of that money just like we say but it's not
nearly as bad just like we say hey can we stop with these foreign wars we got things we have to
fix here imagine if bread and milk cost you 70% more today than it did just a few weeks ago
do you think we'd all be up and even the greatest hero in our war machine we would be like look dude stop it stop
that's what's that's the reality on the streets and it is also the reality that millions of people
were to even those who were part of the 79 revolution do not want the iatollahs
their life anymore.
They don't want the religious police squads.
How can the press say anything about me and my religion or you and your religion and any of our churches
when this is going on?
See, the press doesn't have perspective.
That's the problem.
They've lost all perspective because in their arrogance, they think that they are right.
they think that they are smarter than everybody else.
And they think that anyone who disagrees with them on anything is a moron.
You couple that arrogance and that belief with the hatred for Donald Trump
and you have a press that you can't trust anything that comes out of their mouth.
Oh, I mean, unless it's Brian Stelter, I mean, because he is just, I mean, he's a reliable source.

Welcome to the program.
We're really glad that you're here.
I don't think...
There's a reason I don't watch the news anymore.
I don't watch the news anymore because they don't have anything to tell me that is true.
Do you...
What do you get from the news?
other than just frustrated and pissed off.
Well, lots of material to criticize the next day.
Yes, yes, yes.
I mean, look, you know, that is the problem.
It's not even that they never give you anything.
It's just that you don't know what to trust.
So much of it is just flavored, you know, so dramatically with opinion and propaganda and spin.
I mean, what would you call their coverage now of impeachment?
They were all in for impeachment.
they couldn't go to the courts to get anything done because this had to be done right away.
Yeah.
Now they voted on impeachment, but Nancy Pelosi won't turn the impeachment over to the Senate so they can finish the job.
They don't seem to be minding this.
There's no real criticism of it.
No.
I mean, it is bizarre to hold both of those viewpoints, as you point out.
I mean, the John Bolton thing came out yesterday where Bolton said, if asked, if subpoenaed in the Senate trial, he would testify.
and Bolton was one of the main guys.
They wanted to get to testify in the House.
And they could have subpoenaed him.
And then he would have taken it to the Supreme Court because rightfully so,
one branch cannot force the other branch to do something.
So it should have gone to the Supreme Court.
But they were in such a hurry.
This has got to be done right now.
We'll work this out when we get to the Senate.
Well, now they're talking about making sure that John Bolton is heard.
Well, you can't do anything until you.
you file the impeachment with the Senate?
And there is one thing that they can do, which is the House has all the power still to this
moment to call John Bolton to testify in the House.
They could still have him do it.
And would Bolton say yes to that?
I mean, he indicated it.
He's talking about the Senate.
But, I mean, if he's willing to testify, if he's subpoenaed, you'd assume he'd go
to the House.
They're all complaining about what the Senate's doing when they could still do that if they
really wanted to.
I mean, it's so obvious this is a game.
and, you know, I think we acknowledge that all the time.
You know, Republicans play games too. We know that.
But what Democrats are doing here is considerably more, I think, offensive.
And what makes it worse, at least to me, is the fact that the press automatically auto-adops what the left-wing narrative is as credible.
You know, that is the automatic, that's the default position.
So there is so much to push back against.
Why bother getting it from these sources?
What's the point?
Even when it's obvious,
will not tell you what the truth is.
The Washington Post has blasted CNN for its track record
on the infamous anti-Trump dossier
following last month's release of the Justice Department
Watchdogs report on the foundation of the Russia investigation,
demanding the network CNN.
This is the Washington Post
demanding the network come clean on its faulty reporting.
This is the latest and ongoing series tackling the media's handling of the dossier.
Washington Post media critic Eric Wempley took aim at the anti-Trump network on Monday,
this is a blaze story, I believe,
for continuing to stand by its past reporting on the salacious document
that was used in the highly controversial foreign intelligence surveillance act,
FISA application, blah, blah, blah.
Wempley singled out CNN, their anchor, Alison Camerata, who claimed December 2017 that the
Intel community has cooperated all of the details of the Yassie compiled by the British
ex-spy Christopher Steele.
This is the Washington Post, the Washington Post, trying to throw CNN under the bus now,
saying what happened to your reporting. Yeah, I mean, it's been embarrassing. I mean, you go back and
listen to, we had a montage a couple weeks ago of the coverage of the dossier and Alison Camerada in
particular comes off looking terrible. I mean, you know, there were things in the dossier that were
accurate. The problem was that they were publicly available, you know, there was nothing, nothing dramatic.
They didn't break any news and all of the things that were not publicly available, as reported by
in detail in the IG report
showed that those things were just made up.
In fact, they even talked to the sources.
The sources of the claims
who didn't even try to say that they were accurate.
Oh, we were joking.
Oh, this was hyperbole.
These weren't things that were credible
at any given moment.
And to go on the air and to essentially,
what Camerata did in that one clip you just mentioned,
is cite some level of knowledge
that you can't have.
I'm an anchor, and I know these things are true.
You have to just understand that I know that they're true.
They've said them.
They've said them to us.
We've reporting that indicates that these things are all confirmed.
They wouldn't be reporting them if they weren't confirmed.
And to now know that none of that was true, there's never a moment where they have to go back
and say, wait a minute, guys.
Like, I understand that we think Donald Trump's a bad guy and a bad president.
What is this, though?
Why would you say that?
You can even report the stuff that's in the dossier and say that it's unproven.
But to go ahead and say that it's all confirmed is not just a minor mistake.
It's a massive journalistic failure by dozens of people, many of them on CNN.
That's inexcusable.
I mean, it was systemic.
If you cared about the truth, but I don't think that they care about the truth.
ABC, as we talked about last hour, has their reporter in the, you know, in the Islamic scarf so she's not
killed or raped in this crowd, what kind of deal did ABC have to make to get her to be able to
get into Iran, cover the funeral, and leave Iran? What kind of deals did they have to make?
But she was there just to report the one side. And the one side is that they're
There were millions of people on the streets saying Soleimani was the greatest guy ever.
Whatever.
What about ABC's coverage of the millions on the streets that were risking their lives standing up against Soleimani and his coulds force and the restrictions that the Ayatollah puts on the average Iranian?
where was the ABC reporter on the streets
talking about, hey, I've got to wear this head scarf,
otherwise they'll kill me and rape me
because I'm not fully human because I'm a woman.
Where is that reporting?
As we said last hour, the press has become
not an enemy of the people of America, an enemy to freedom.
I challenge you to show me the time when they are really
being the champion
of truth
on both sides.
A consistent truth.
We got to stand up to power.
Well, you didn't when power was being abused
by Barack Obama. You now call that
the purest
administration ever that had
zero
scandals. Are you kidding me?
Abusing
the power of the IRS.
You didn't care.
Going after the phone records and tapping journalists' lines.
You care about Donald Trump, but you didn't care about Barack Obama.
You say you care about women's rights and homosexual rights, but you really don't.
Because where are you when it comes to Russia?
You only care about Russia now because Russia is somehow or another,
working and colluding with Donald Trump.
And so you have to be the enemy of Russia now.
But you were for Russia and Putin.
You wanted a new open door with Putin.
You never said boo about how bad Putin was until Trump got in.
You wouldn't pay attention to the warnings that we gave you for two years leading up to the 18 election.
Two years you paid no attention
Only when it became about Donald Trump
Did you care? Pulling out of Iraq
That's all you could talk about
All you could talk about under George W. Bush
Barack Obama promised he was going to do it
He never did
You didn't say anything about the lives lost
There was no daily accounting
Of how many lives were being lost in Iraq
there was no talk about Iraq.
You were cheering on
this administration's policies
of destabilizing the entire Middle East
while you threw George Bush under the bus
for destabilizing the Middle East.
I mean, think about this, the daily today,
the podcast that you've listened to him before Glenn
mentioned a couple times,
big podcast from the New York Times.
This is their tweet promoting their episode today.
quote, knowing General Soleimani was out there, made me feel safer, said a student about the commander killed in the American drone strike.
He was like a security umbrella above our country.
Listen to today's episode.
Oh, that's a good, good balance to take, I think, on the Soleimani life.
Life and Times.
That's basically the obituary, a security umbrella above Iran.
making it feel safer.
I mean, I don't know what the hell that government is telling the people.
Obviously, they're lying to them constantly.
But, I mean, is that the appropriate level of coverage of this person who, again, was torturing children as if it was his, like, you know, favorite thing to do?
It was a hobby for the guy.
Torturing children, murdering people, murdering U.S. soldiers.
but let's talk about the security umbrella he was for Iran.
It's very important.
They claim that they are for the people and they are for rights,
but they are not.
They are not for rights.
They do not care about the rights of women.
If they did, they would be consistent on their coverage of the Middle East.
But they're not.
They say that they care about gay rights.
They don't.
They execute people for them.
for being gay in Iran.
Remember when Ahmadinejad came and gave his speech at Columbia and he said,
we don't have any gays.
We don't have any gays in Iran.
And everybody just kind of laughed that off.
No, you know why they don't have any gays?
Because they kill them.
And whoever else left is afraid to say it, obviously, because everybody else they know was killed.
So what is our American press really for?
Well, we just wanted to make sure we covered, well, that's not journalism.
Just covering what the other side says?
Well, how come you don't do that with Americans who love their country, who believe in the Constitution?
You editorialize all the time about them.
You'll cover them, but you'll call them extreme right-wing zealots because they believe in the Constitution.
So you don't just cover, you don't cover Americans who have a different opinion fairly balanced.
And quite frankly, you're not doing that in Iran.
You are becoming a propaganda arm for a government we know is evil.
Last year I tried to swear off the word evil and not use it, you know, for everything.
this is evil.
If you can't admit
what the government of Iran
is to its own people,
let alone the rest of the world, as being
evil,
what is your definition
of that word?

Thanks.
I want to go through a montage here of the way the U.S. press has been covering the funeral and the loss of the Iranian terror leader.
Listen.
He was a war hero, the commander of Iran's feared Quds Force.
was no ordinary general. The U.S. officially classified him as a terrorist, but in Iran, he was a national hero.
He's regarded as personally, incredibly brave. The troops love him. I was trying to think of somebody,
and I was thinking of DeGal. A revered figure in Iran and some other places in the Middle East.
Smart, charismatic, ruthless, strategic, and bold. Kassim Soleimani was an evil genius.
Soleimani was in charge of spreading Iranian influence around the world, and he was extremely
good at it. He is the pick of the French Foreign Legion, you know, if you will. By killing Qasem
Soleimani, the U.S. has stripped Iran of an inspirational military leader. The crowds are massive
and emotional. There are many tears here. Thousands of mourners on the streets in Iran. Symbolic
caskets are loft, weeping and chanting, I am Soleimani. The supreme leader of Iran
weeping and praying over a coffin draped in the Iraqi flag. It's difficult to convey how to
How revered he is.
There was talk in Iran Soleimani might be a future president or perhaps even a supreme leader.
Might be a future president.
Democrats are like, yeah, right?
He'd be great.
No, Iran.
No, Harem.
Oh, okay.
It's almost that level.
It really is.
It really is.
Let me ask you that if he could beat Donald Trump, I contend the Democrats would consider it.
That is the one qualification you need.
Yeah, that's the only one.
I mean, no, not to be the next president, but to be the next candidate.
Yeah.
They just have to believe.
I'm just saying that, yeah.
I don't think America would vote for this guy.
But if he convinced them that he could beat Donald Trump, they'd all be for him.
They'd all be for him.
I mean, Bernie Sanders is a socialist.
Uh-huh.
who is in second place, I guess you'd say right now.
Right?
He seemed to be leading Iowa, maybe leading New Hampshire.
And he's, you know, on Anderson Cooper last night.
Oh, yeah.
You know, blabbing on about how this is, you know, he's comparing it.
Yeah.
This is Putin.
Basically calling Trump Putin the same way Putin kills dissidents.
There isn't a tie to the two.
two situations you're describing.
Like, they're just not even close to the same.
There's people involved in both.
That's one similarity.
They're not even close to the same situation.
One, the dissidents are dissenting against Putin and his regime.
And while this guy may be against the United States of America, he's engaging in actual
death.
Yeah.
He's killing our soldiers.
He is spreading horror all throughout the Middle East.
We, as we've said, like three times on today's show,
we know one of the children who his squad went through
and drilled into his leg as a torture practice just to torture his family
after killing the mom in front of them.
I mean, this is not a dissident.
This is not somebody who is like,
oh, you know what, I have a different agreement with Donald.
Trump and I, you know, I really think we should maybe open up free and fair elections.
This guy's not for free and fair elections.
This guy is a religious zealot.
What part of this goes with anything that you state you believe?
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

So, can we get to
can we get to the
woman now? Thank you.
That still has all of her male junk.
Well, look, there is a transition going on
in a physical sense, but she's always been a woman.
Of course she has.
So she went into a salon
and said, I want my junk waxed.
And they were like, we don't do that
for guy parts
and
guy parts
these are women
dare you
Jessica Yaneev
yes she is up in Canada
and she went to
get her junk waxed
and they said no
and they said we don't really do that
for men
and that was a big controversy
she filed a claim
in the British Columbia
human rights tribunal
because when the human rights you think of
don't I have a right, a human fundamental human right
to wax. And of course the answer to that is yes.
But this particular dumb court, this is surprising.
This is coming from Canada.
Because they're really extreme on the stuff.
Bad.
Really extreme.
I mean, they've done terrible things to people for just speaking out.
I mean, look what they were trying to do with Jordan Peterson.
Right.
So this is, was a surprise in which they actually threw the case out.
She wanted to get something like $500,000.
but that did not happen.
In fact, Yan'ev was actually ordered to pay $2,000 to each of the three,
to three of four clients represented because of improper conduct.
So that's how that case wound up.
And look, the Jessica Yan'ev parts of our lives was over.
It's over.
We don't have to think about that anymore.
You know, that's good.
I really don't want to think about it anymore.
Right.
However, there's a new development in the story.
Now this is where it gets complex.
This is where you're not sure which way to go.
You tell me, think about this as we go through the story, which way does the media go on this?
They don't know.
Which way does Alexandria Casio-Cortez go on this story?
See, we're consistent.
We say we're against it.
Yeah.
It's easy.
It's easy.
It's easy. Doesn't take any thought.
Imagine the wood and coal that needs to be shoveled into Cortez's head.
just to have the power to compute all of the possibilities.
So Jessica Yaniv went to the She Point beauty salon.
The She Point.
She went in there, wanted some waxing done,
and asked to get her legs waxed in private.
And she wanted, obviously, to have her pants down during this procedure.
Now, the waxing situation, again, I would not like to force you to think about any more,
but it's important to the story because of the reason that the salon refused to do it,
because now there's a new case she brought, Jessica's brought in front of the court.
The reason was a religious objection.
So they said they would not wax her.
I'm sorry.
we're talking about Jessica.
Yes.
His.
Oh, hard, sorry.
Hers.
Okay.
Would not wax them in this way because they, it violated their religious principles.
So now you have the media who's saying, okay, you've got this wonderful transgendered woman who just needs some waxing done and is against some evil.
Christian.
Bastard religious extremists who won't help that.
Correct. We know what side.
That's easy.
That's not what this is.
However, it's not a Christian.
Is it Islam?
Is it Islam?
Because that would make their heads pop.
If it was Islam, they very well might be on the side of the salon owner.
Right.
Because that religious extremism is an extreme.
That's normal.
It's okay.
And should be respected.
But it would be really difficult.
They would really have to choose.
But this is the complication.
Mm-hmm.
Here's the thing.
Mm-hmm.
The salon owner is of the Sikh persuasion.
So now you have India being a capitalist country.
Oh, yeah.
You know what I mean?
But a person of color.
Person of color.
Versus a white transgendered man to woman.
Right.
And you also have them from the Poon job area.
It is the Poon job.
That's a good point.
I'm glad you brought up Punjab, because it is from the Punjab area.
And there's something incredibly relevant to this story when you talk about Punjab.
Right.
I'm asking, I'm asking you for a, and you're from Punjab.
So, I mean, I would think that that.
It actually feels like a good name for like on the menu of selections.
You can get like waxing the legs.
Stop.
Stop.
I'm just saying the name of the town.
Right.
I got it. I got it.
The Sikh religion was in the region.
Right.
The whole region there of the Punjab.
So of the, so where do you come down when it's Jessica Yaneev versus the people of Punjab?
All right.
Now, if you're in the media, who knows?
Who knows?
I don't know.
Okay.
Now let me take you back to an earlier story from earlier on the program.
Okay.
Remember I told you about the British astronaut that, yes, take a moment to.
process that, who knew? But the British have an astronaut, or maybe even two. And one of them said,
there are aliens and they're living among us and they're invisible. Okay. Okay. Now,
what about the possibility of aliens living among us and they're not invisible? Okay. What would you say
if I suggested to you that perhaps everyone in the media is an alien.
Everyone in the media?
Well, maybe not everyone in the media.
But they just look like...
A lot of them.
They look just like us.
But they're not.
Right.
Now, if I said to you and I could show you photo,
I could take you to it and I could prove that it was otherworldly.
Okay.
If I could take you to the site of a giant spaceship that has...
had room for a thousand aliens and in there were nothing but books about journalism.
Okay.
I had no other proof.
There's nobody at the ship.
It crashed maybe 40 years ago, 20 years ago.
And it crashed and we just discovered the ship and riddled with journalism books.
Would you be willing to accept pretty quickly?
that explains it oh yeah i mean i we haven't even found the ship i'm pretty much there
exactly right exactly right so i have a thesis here and i'd like to get your um percentage of
possibility on this particular thesis uh jessica yaneve we really have to go back no i'm not going
we've already we've gone through the entire situation as it revolves on the waxing and punjaub
Too far. Yes, go ahead.
What is the percentage of possibility that the whole Jessica Yaniv thing is performance art?
We're going to find out in six months there's a documentary or reality series of this person
who actually is trying to show how ridiculous this is and continues to file a loss.
Zero. Really?
Yeah.
I'm at least 10%.
I mean, not only is she, it's the most extreme and ridiculous thing you could do.
It's a cry for help.
may very well be. That's why I'm only saying 10%.
Yeah. But you don't think there's any percentage
possibility that this is like, let's say, almost
a conservative activist who's
living, we're living this life
to prove how ridiculous this is.
We're not that creative. Really? We're just not that
creative. No. It would be
a good series. Yeah.
Well, I mean, you know what? I
think about this. Our own
Stephen Crowder. Now, I don't believe he's
asked for any waxing. We'd have to ask
Stephen if this has happened. He went in for
a pregnancy check. But he did go in for a pregnancy
test dressed as a woman while clearly a man to us a plan parenthood, wasn't it? Yeah. And I believe,
I'm not mistaken, he actually acquired actual pregnant urine. Yeah, he tested positive for
pregnancy. And tested positive for pregnancy at a plan of parenthood. Yeah. Now, that's not possible
for a man. No matter what anyone says to you, that is not possible for a man. I can't believe you have to say that.
That I have to say that. You have to say that. I know. By the way, that's not possible for a man to be
pregnant and I want people to know that. Can you imagine if I'm a time traveler, all I'm doing
is I'm going and I'm playing my show back to my audience 20 years ago. Oh yeah. That's all I'm doing.
You want to know how bad it's going to get? Listen to this. This is, this is my actual show in 25
years. Nobody would believe it. Nobody would believe it. Nobody would believe it. So you don't think
there's any chance of that. No. I mean, it would be a great, it would be a great series. It would be.
This is a cry for help.
It was a cry for help.
This person is, I think it would be much more likely that we find this person dead by their own hand sometime in the future.
Oh, gosh.
I mean, that's, uh, they turn that one, turn that little bit, a little dark.
I was having some fun with it and you kind of brought it to the darkest.
Always ends with a bullet to that.
It does with you.
It does.
It does.
No, I mean, I just think there are some really sick people right now, some really sick people.
and some people that are really, really miserable.
Do you see the guy who has, I think he had 6,000 plastic surgeries to look like the Ken doll?
Yeah, yeah.
And now he's like, I'm a woman and I've always been more like Barbie than Ken.
Now, sweetheart, no.
Yeah, you're not Ken or Barbie.
You have some sort of disorder that is causing you to think,
that you will find your your happiness in looking a different way but once you complete from going
from ken to Barbie you're going to be just as miserable and i just i feel like we are a society that is
just cruel we're being cruel to people by by allowing them to live these lives where oh yeah i'm a man
and i can get pregnant oh yeah i'm a man with all my junk and i can't go swimming today i'm a
upset a little bit because I can't go swimming today because if you're menstruating,
you can't get in the pool and I'm menstruating.
Dude, if you're bleeding from downstairs, okay, with mail junk, go see a doctor.
You're not menstruating.
Go see a doctor.
We don't have a lacerated kidney.
Yeah.
I mean, really, really bad.
And we're just doing so much damage to people.
We've gone on from our children giving them all trophies and saying they're all special.
now some of them suck.
Oh yeah, a lot of them do.
Yeah.
A lot of kids are terrible.
Yeah.
And some of them in our own family.
I mean, I got four.
I got four.
Do you want to name names or?
I don't think I need to.
I think they know.
So, you know, we're giving them, we're giving them hope, false hope.
We're telling them that, oh, they're spectacular.
Oh, yes, you could win on American.
No, you can't.
You suck.
Now, you don't have to say it that way, but we don't tell our children the truth anymore.
We don't teach them the truth.
And, gee, we wonder why suicide is going up.
You're going to be incredibly disappointed when you realize, you know, you're not Rihanna.
That's not you.
And it shouldn't be you.
You be you.
Rihanna is Rihanna.
You be you.
And, you know, it started out as, hey, I got to be who I am.
Okay, be who you are.
But if you're like, I'm actually a woman and I'm menstruating, even though I haven't had any junk removed, dude, that's not you.
That's not you.
That's a lie.
And it's a dangerous lie.
And we are enabling really dangerous things for very sad people.
Stop it.
We're not helping.
We are not helping.
We are hurting people.
You say you have compassion.
Compassion requires truth.
