You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. So we have, we're just, we're just covering the Mueller report and the, the questioning of Robert Mueller. And this is now a question. Let's bring this up. This is Hank Johnson.

And in fact, quite possibly the dumbest congressman we have. Just saying something. Yeah, there's a lot of dumb. Isn't that truth? I refer to the report on that episode. Well, page 85 of volume two speaks to that. And also, Director Mueller,

DOJ ethics officials confirmed that you had no conflicts that would prevent you from serving a special counsel. isn't that correct? That's correct. But despite Don McGahn and the Department of Justice guidance, around May 23rd, 2017, the president, quote, prodded McGahn to complain to Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein about these supposed... He's just reading from the report. Yeah, he's just reading from the report. These aren't real questions. Again, which I'm bummed because he is so good. When he asked questions, when he asked questions, If you remember, oh, yeah. Hank Johnson from Georgia. By the way, what the hell is going on with Georgia politics?

Cynthia McKinney, Johnson, the woman who this earlier this week was like, the guy told me to go back home, which was completely untrue. Now they have the videotape showing that everything she said was bogus. It's not great. Oh, it's amazing. It's amazing. By the way, you can keep the Hank Johnson question. up. We're just going to keep monitoring this in case anything exciting happens.

Well, in case the whole committee tips over and capsizes. That's what Hank Johnson. That's what he said in committee. He was asking a general about sending more troops to Guan. We have it? Play this. I love it. My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will will tip over and capsize. Listen to this general.

We don't anticipate that. The greatest response of all time. Of all time. Do you know how islands work, sir? Because it was still respectful. And yet, at the same time, relate how ridiculous the question was. It's not like a floaty in a pool that can just travel around. I don't know if you know that.

Can we talk about another development here? with Hank Johnson is, did he have like a tube in his throat in like a recent surgery or something that I don't know about massive shaving problem? Did he have a shaving incident? Because it looks like he cut himself shaving and still has the paper towel

under his chin. Watch when he looks up. No, he does. Is that what it is? I think it is. You can kind of see it a little bit. A little bit. But when he looks up, watch him look up. There he is. He's like, I got toilet paper stuck to my neck. that first weekend phone call

that's done McGahn. I mean, you fire your entire staff after this, if this is what this is. It could be something we don't know about medical issue or something. With our luck, it was something he was in the hospital getting a blood transfusion last night, and then this will all be Twitter going, look at how insensitive they just hate him because he's black.

Well, you know, that is why we mentioned, of course, that it could be, it could legitimately be something medical that I don't know about, but it does appear to be that it just, he just cut himself shape, A little shaving accident. Well, maybe he was shaving on an island that was in the middle of capsizing. Oh.

Possible. Sometimes when you move your arm to one side or the other of the room, and that room just starts to move a little bit. Exactly. You've got to be careful while you're shaving. Why don't shave on planes? We learn that from the documentary airplane. Not a documentary, but I appreciate that.

By the way, tonight at 5 o'clock, you've got to join us, Pat. You've got to be. Is this the Alonam-Omar thing? Yeah. Yeah. It is really going to be a good special tonight. I bet. We have an hour long special.

Do you delve into the, or maybe you don't want to give this one. No, go ahead. Delve into the marriage with the brother? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, we're trying to explain, A, what this controversy is, because most people are like, this can't be true. What's about this?

She married your brother. What is this? And so we explain what all of the controversies are, from her all the way back to Somalia, to today and we are also giving all of the evidence that has been found and it's, it is, I think it's enough to call a grand jury. I have been absolutely dumbfounded by the fact that nobody has been able to,

maybe until tonight, has been able to follow up on this. She married her brother for immigration purposes and nobody can actually track that down. Well, we're not sure. How can that be? Yeah. Yeah, how could it be? Because she won't answer the question. But there is no birth certificate because Somalia was such a nightmare.

Okay, so there was no birth certificate. So you just have to take and piece together what she says, what he says, follow the pictures, follow the immigration, and what they said when they were coming in. So there's no records of that family in Somalia? No. Wow. It was a civil war. Yeah, it's a civil war. It's not in a refugee camp.

We had one, too, and we still have records. It's possible we had a more developed government than Somalia. Even then. Even then. It's not unusual for not to have birth certificates. And it's really important that we don't make this into a birth certificate thing. Right. Because it's not.

We're not questioning how she got here. We know how she got here. But there's illegal potential illegal activity there. There's illegal activity that seems. pretty likely on how she got in. The family was broken in half. Half went to England under one name. The other half came here under the Omar name.

And then we have all of the photographic evidence. You're just going to have to decide for yourself. It's enough to be able to go now and say to a grand jury, you need to investigate this. because there's a felony on entrance. There's possible felonies on lying about who people are for educational purposes, for discounts, fraud. There is a felony of her tax forms where she was, I mean, incredible. There's 28, is it, 28 tickets and citations that she,

and her husband slash brother received in this time period where they state their address, and their address is the same address where her, quote, ex-husband lived? So it looks like she was living with her, quote, new husband, most likely brother, with her the husband. So she was supposedly divorced. It was bigamy. No, she didn't divorce. Well, didn't she at one point divorce him?

No, she said, yes, in the Muslim tradition. Right, okay. So she married him in the Muslim tradition. Right. And what's really strange is most people don't know this. She's back to being married to him again. Correct. But when she married her brother or whoever this guy is, she married with a Christian pastor.

Now, why would a devout? why would a devout Muslim who wears a hijab and a devout Muslim male marry with a Christian pastor why diversity that's why

I mean there's just a lot of stuff like that that's just bizarre just totally bizarre but there are I believe crimes serious crimes and the impeachable crimes oh yeah jail crimes

felonies. Not high crimes and misdemeanors, actual felonies. You don't have to have an opinion on this. If these things are true, she should be going to prison. And Pat, you definitely want to watch this special tonight, right? I definitely want to. Oh, okay. You should use Glenn 20 as your promo code then when you sign up at blazTV.com.

You'll save $20. Wow. That's unusual. It is unusual. It's twice the amount of the normal savings. That's great. And that's good today? It's good today.

Glenn 20, G-L-E-N-N. It's two ends. Two ends. That's wasteful. Yeah, it is. Wouldn't one be sufficient? It would. He doesn't believe in global warming.

Of course not. Glenn 20 at blaisTV.com. Make sure you get that. Real quick, let's go to Louis Gomer. The element of any of those obstructions you referenced requires a corrupt state of mind, correct? Corrupt intent, correct. Right. And if somebody knows they did not conspire with anybody from Russia to affect the election,

And they see the big justice department with people that hate that person coming after them. And then a special counsel appointed who hires a dozen or more people that hate that person. And he knows he's innocent. He's not corruptly acting in order to see that justice is done. What he's doing is not obstructing justice. He is pursuing justice and the fact that you ran it out two years means you perpetuated injustice. I take your real back.

I take your question. The witness may answer the question. I take your question. What was that mean? The gentleman from Florida. This is like everyone was just senile just talking at each other. I got gin and I like pizza. What the hell does that mean?

I take your question. I guess it's just I understand it. Yeah, he's not going to, he doesn't respect, I guess, the question. I heard that you said that essentially is what he's saying. I mean, isn't that a good, isn't that a good point, though? Yeah, see, like it. I mean, I'd like to hear your. And then in your report, you wrote about multiple calls from the president to White House

Council Don McGahn. And regarding the second call, you wrote, and I quote, McGahn recalled that the president was more direct saying something like, Call Rod. Tell Rod that Mueller has conflicts and can't be the special counsel. McGahn, recall the president telling him Mueller has to go and call me back when you do it. Director Mueller, did McGahn understand what the president was ordering him to do? I direct you to what we've written in the report in terms of characterizing his feelings. And in the report it says, quote, McGahn understood.

Look, I gazed. I should be any. pudding at this time. I don't usually think like this now. I think I wrote it down. Maybe you should read it. But it appears as though that's all you're doing is reading the report and asking me to leave my pudding time just to say, yeah, that's what the report said, I think. The best of the Glenn Beck program. Like listening to this podcast? If you're not a subscriber, become one now on iTunes. But while you're there, do us a favor and rate the show. Tom Fitten, the president of Judicial Watch, has just yesterday filed a House ethics complaint against Representative Elon Omar over potential immigration, marriage, tax, and student law. Tom Fitton is the president of Judicial Watch. That's a public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption.

They have been around for a long time. Tom Fitton is their president at judicial. watch, and they have just filed a House ethics complaint against Elon Omar. Welcome to the program, Tom. Glenn, good to be with you. Thank you for having me on. Thanks. We're doing a special tonight, and, you know, the mainstream media makes this into conspiracy theory, or they say this is just a crazy, you know, right-wingers.

But we've had the Minneapolis Star Tribune do an investigation themselves and verify the investigations by crazy right-winger. And they either can confirm, they can confirm about 60% of it. And the rest of it, they say they can't disprove without her participation. These are serious, serious crimes. What we're presenting tonight,

I believe, is enough for an indictment and a call for a grand jury. I gather you're at the same place. Yeah, there's certainly enough evidence to warrant a criminal investigation into what went on there. And, you know, Glenn, you've been looking at this, I'm sure, for as long as we have. It's kind of been this, like, low-grade fever type of corruption scandal. And when her hometown left-wing newspaper essentially puts its stamp of approval on the concerns that we've had for a long time. But it was going on there.

I think it's pretty hard now for the Justice Department to ignore it, Department of Homeland Security, the IRS, and, you know, there's a political process for handling ethics concerns related to this type of activity, which is what we're trying to pursue with the House. We're not naive as to the interest in Democrats in doing this, but we just got to try to make the system work. We've got to try to remind these members they're not above the law and hold other members accountable if they're going to try to let them get away with it. But I think that is, they do think they're above the law. I mean, we're talking perjury, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, state and federal tax fraud, federal student loan fraud. If it was you, Tom, or if it was me, how much trouble would we be in, how much jail time would we be looking at? Yeah, this would be an easy prosecution if it were a regular individual involved in it. And this is a politically connected figure, now a member of Congress.

I'm sure the Justice Gordon would be horrified of having to do something here. But that's the goal of filing this ethics complaint. Not only will it put pressure on the House to do something about it, but highlight the issue for the Justice Department to follow up. So hang on just a second. You say it would be very easy. Why would it be very easy? It's complicated. Well, it's not that complicated.

you know, so your listeners should know, it looks like Ms. Omar came into the United States using the name of another family. The Omar family. Her siblings, including her brother, went to the United Kingdom. It looks like she married her brother to give him some type of immigration benefits here in the United States. It's unclear how that plays out. So it's so bad that it's, we can't be confident that, as we point out, it's not her, she's going by another name that's not her own as a member of Congress. It's extraordinary. So it seems, it seems to be pretty well documented that this is what happened.

What I can't figure out is why did she come with her father? think, her father and her sister, and go under the Omar family, with the other siblings going to the UK. Is it because the Omar's could only take a certain number of people, or why didn't they take the whole family under the Omar name? Do you know? Well, I'm not sure about that, but, you know, remember, this is, you know, these are refugees. They were in Kenya at the time. I mean, who knows what was going on. They could only bring three individuals in with under the family's name or her other members wanted to go to the United Kingdom for other reasons.

You know, my guess is this is just the tip of the iceberg and probably not an unusual story in terms of a fraud associated with refugee settlements here in the United States. Apparently DNA evidence shows that 80% of Somalis coming in are not related to the people they say they're related to. Yeah, you know, and, and, you know, that might be happening with a wink and a nod from authorities. The point is get the refugees in and the specifics of the names. However, Portman might be to national security and the rule of law are terribly relevant to helping the refugees. It's amazing. But if you're going to run for Congress, you've got to make sure all your ducks in a row, and that hasn't happened to you. It's amazing to me that under Obama, we couldn't take Christian refugees because we just didn't know.

but if you say, and I believe this to be true, authorities look at this with a wink and a nod for Somalian, Muslim refugees, but they don't have a wink and a nod for Christian, Syrian, or Iraqi refugees. There's something really toxic in our system. Well, you remember, the refugee program, the vetting of refugees was outsourced to third parties, UN officials and folks like that. So the United States just essentially accepted the word of the third party betters. That's what they've been happening with the refugee program, which is why President Trump tried to reform it to get more security measures in place. So let me go here. As you're looking at the fraud of the marriage, she marries her husband, let's call him Ahmed I. She marries Ahmed one, but she says she only marries him under a religious ceremony.

Is there any documentation of those two being married legally at all the first time? No, and I think, you know, some of the religious ceremonies were officiated by a Christian minister, which is... Well, that was Ahmed II. Ahmed II. Ahmed 2. Ahmed 1 was a religious Muslim to the Muslim tradition. Ahmed 2 was a legal and Christian ceremony done by a Christian. pastor, which I just, how does this woman who's wearing a burqa get married by a Christian? It doesn't make sense.

I encourage all your listeners to go to the Paraline blog so they can start creating their own genealogical charts and marriage charts for the Congressman from Minnesota. And this is why the ethics committee needs to get into this because she was playing fast and loose with our marriage laws. She was filing IRS forms, pretending to be married to one person, when in fact, she was married to another. She was, we have, we have the, she had to amend the form. She says that's good enough, but it may not be good enough. It wouldn't be good enough for most any other American. No. If you committed marriage fraud and you were just caught on an IRS form doing it. No. And she also committed perjury on like, like 26 different, I think they're

traffic violations and other violations that she and Ahmed two got. And they put their address down as the address of Ahmed I. So apparently they were all living together in some strange three's company kind of marriage with her children and both husbands. I mean, I don't even know what that is. Well, you know, if you're engaged in marriage fraud, it makes perfect sense. Correct. You understand she's living with her brother, her husband's there too. On paper, the brother's married to her, but it's nothing substantive beyond the paper marriage for purposes of immigration,

who knows what other purposes to have them get some benefits from that marriage. And on top of that, you have to wonder whether the house was defrauded in terms of descriptions about her name and other background material in terms of filings with the house. This is a, you know, there's criminal liability here potentially, but she could do from Congress if the House does his job here and concludes the evidence shows what we suggest it does. But isn't she also, I mean, aren't these felonies? Yep, yep. You know, the U.S. attorney and I don't know who the U.S. attorney in Minnesota is, but he ain't looking at it, he ain't doing his job.

Tom, you've looked at this stuff, and you've looked at this stuff, and you've been in this business for a while, how comfortable are you with the Facebook? A lot of the stuff, we can't go any further because all we have are Facebook posts of her and Ahmed 2, the timeline, et cetera, et cetera. They were deleted from her timelines. They were deleted from her and her alleged brothers' posts.

All of this have been in a race, but we have access to those things. How comfortable are you that these are legitimately her and her families? Well, when I see our good friends at the Paralline blog, who I trust, even though the big media pretends you can't trust them, they were quite diligent in trying to ferret out all this information. And then you have the legacy media come in, the Minnesota newspaper, come in,

and essentially say, yeah, a lot of questions here and she's acting like she has something to hide and essentially repeats the reporting of our conservative friends there in Paraline. You know, as you point out, I've been doing this for a long time. You kind of, you know, people sometimes come to the wrong conclusions about publicly available documents. And I think the right conclusions about this is that something illegal took place. Scott Johnson, who runs Paraline blog, did all a reporting on this. He was in the media the other day. He said he was 98% certain marriage fraud took place,

and 90% certain the marriage fraud was with her brother. So something needs to be done here. And if she's innocent, then let the investigation figure that out. Right. And or, you know, what's have an investigation so that we can conclude one way or another, whether we should move on. There is a presumption of innocent. Right. But there's enough evidence that any other citizen would be subject to a criminal investigation.

Yes. Tom, thank you so much. Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch. He is the president of that. We are doing a special on this tonight. This is serious, serious allegations. And we want to explain the entire story to you. It's very difficult, especially when you're reading it or listening to it on the radio. It's very difficult to follow. We're going to make it really easy. for you to follow tonight at 5 o'clock, and we urge you to watch it and share it with your friends. This is a dangerous situation with somebody who has, I believe, dangerous connections, connections to care, high-level connections to care, which is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is the parent organization that supports Hamas.

Or is it Hezbollah? No, it's Hamas. So this is a dangerous situation that we need to clear up. You can subscribe to the Blaze now at BlazeTV.com slash Glenn.

There's been a team effort, but he's done the lion's share of this. He's going to be with us in about 10 minutes. He was working for PJ Media at the time he began this. He gave this story to us about a week and a half ago. I've been in touch with him off and on over the last year.

and he gave this story to me for the Blaze to run. We wanted to make sure that we did all of our due diligence. And Powerline beat us to it by a few hours. But we have Leon Wolfon, who is an attorney and our chief editor here at the Blaze, to go over what he did and what he went over, where he felt that there were any flaws. we, I guess, approved this story about 2 o'clock in the morning, and that was too late, so we didn't get the exclusive. But I want you to know, we didn't run it because we were wanting to make sure it was all buttoned up. We did approve the story because it is buttoned up.

So we're taking this very, very seriously and see this tonight at 5 o'clock only on. on blazedTV.com slash glen promo code glen 20 this is the best of the glenbeck program uh we have david steinberg on uh with us now david is a journalist he has been following the elan omar case for how long david a year over a year i've been on this a little more than a year scott johnson and preo samson started this uh got on it back in august of twenty six And this is when nobody was on it, and it actually started, these claims started with a Somali blogger, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, there was a message board used by members of the local Minneapolis Somali community. And just in the hours after Ilhan first won a primary in August of 2016, they posted the first evidence that her marriage.

was a sham and that this person was actually her genetic brother who she had married in 2009. And what was the evidence then? The evidence then was photographic and it was also referencing, they specifically referenced when she got married to the person who she claims. It was her husband at the time, that's Ahmed Hersey. and he pointed out where we could dig up the documents, that the document should be there. And so I...

Go ahead. I talked to you about, I don't know, I think we started first talking about eight months ago or so, and you were on this, and I know you were working with people in England to get more documentation, because half the family went to Virginia when they left Kenya, They're from Somalia.

They were in a refugee camp in Kenya, and they were trying to get out to the west. And half the family went to Virginia with the Omar family. And that's when she allegedly changed her name to Omar. She's not an Omar, apparently. She is an Elmi. And the rest of her family, I think three others, went to England. Do you know why the family split at that point? Why didn't they all go to America with the Omar's?

Do you know? Well, what we've heard from sources in the Somali community who were involved with this wave of refugee immigration to the U.S. at that time, we're well aware of what people were doing to gain access to both the U.S. and the U.K. at that time. several people gave us the same story about how Ilhan and her father arrived in the United States. They said there was this family, the Omar's, which apparently already had a relative in the United States. So they were using the P3 refugee application program, family reunification, which allows you to apply as a refugee in a bit quicker fashion, and if you already have someone in the U.S., which legally is referred to as the anchor relative.

Now, so that was the Omar family. It appeared they already have that. And this was somebody, the Omer family is within the same clan as Ilhan's father. Okay. And they had a discussion over in Kenya at the refugee camp. The Omar family allowed them, allowed to. Ilhan's father, Ilhan's sister and Ilhan, to fraudulently apply as part of this P3 program as members of the Omar family. And then Omar's brother and sister went over to the UK under the family name of Elmi.

Correct. That's what we also heard. They applied to for asylum in the United Kingdom under their legal names, which was Ahmed Nersaid Elmi, Lela Nersaid Elmi, and Mohamed Nersaid Elmi. Those were three siblings of Ilhan. Okay, so why didn't those three, any idea why those three did not come under the Omar banner here in America? Was there a limit? Or what do we, do we know anything on that? I don't have anything to verify what I've heard from sources as to why those three did not come.

But what I have heard from sources is that there just simply wasn't a likelihood of getting that many people. Okay. All of them. All right. So now we have Ahmed Elmi, apparently her brother, who she's later going to marry, living in Camden in the United Kingdom. and Lila Elmi, who also lived in Camden, at apparently the same address. Do we have, I know you talk to,

or I know you have both of them in Camden. Do we have anything that shows that they're at the same address? Yes, I have them at the same address, which I haven't published because I believe either they or relatives are stolen the address. So I haven't published that, but I do have both of the Matthews same address. We have, I have verification that, both from the school itself and from Ahmed Elme's own social media, that he attended the junior high high school, which was in that neighborhood. All right. So can you, if we don't publish or anything, it's just for our eyes only, so I can verify this, can you send me the information that you have where it places them at the same address?

Oh, absolutely. Because that is, those are the only two questions that I had on this was, okay, don't understand the split up other than it was not likely to get all of them in under the Omar's. and the other is do you have any anything that is firming confirming that they were living at the same address because we do know that Leah Leila Elmi is um is Omar's sister because of what evidence the evidence that I published was what is the problem is that he was a minor at the time right so coming up with anything beyond address records legally, it's not something, you know, I've been able to do the whole investigation without requesting that anybody leaked me something and put themselves in jeopardy. I didn't want to start. So that's been difficult. What I have been

able to show, though, is he was enrolled at that school, that they lived up the same address, which I'm happy to forward to you. No, no, but I'm asking about Layla. How do we, what are Yeah, what are the connections there that we know they are sisters? Because once we know they're sisters and we have Ahmed as a youth living with her, I mean, we pretty much have that. I mean, that's pretty much done. Right. So what I published as far as a connection showing Ilhan and Leila are sisters,

Uh, Ilhan has on multiple occasions referred to her own father as a man named Nurse Saeed. She's been photographed with him. Uh, she's called him Nurse Saeed. She tweets his name was Nurse Saeed. Everyone in the community knew him by that name. And he, uh, he, his social media, he refers to himself as nurse. I pull up a, a marriage document. from 1997 from Camden, it's a borough of London.

And Layla Nursaid Elmi, when she got married in 1997, she lists her father on the application form as Nurse Saeed Elmi. Now, at the age of, we know his birth date of the one in the United States that is referred to, that Ilhan has referred to as her father, there is nobody else in either the United States or the United Kingdom named Nur Saeed Almi that I can locate. There is certainly nobody close to the same birthday. Now, then I also published photographs, which had originally appeared on Ilhan Omar's

social media back in 2016, which she deleted once Scott Johnson first got on this case. The photograph I published was Leila Elmi, Ilhan Omar, and Nurse Aide, the father, all with their arms around each other on a family vacation in late 2011. I published another picture of Ilhan Omar visiting Leila Elmi in 2015 in London. And remarkably, Ilhan put the caption on the page, I heart myself. sisters. And then I also published another social media post by someone who attended an event in late 2018 in Washington, D.C., with Ilhan Omar and Leila Elmi. He says, I just had dinner with Ilhan Omar and her sister, Layla Elmi. He had no, there is no rational, objective reason for him to incorrectly identify the person he had dinner with as Ilhan's sister, Layla Elmi.

Now, this event actually took place a couple hours after Ilhan had filed a police. She didn't file a report. I'm sorry about that. She had been in a taxi, and she claimed the next day that the taxi driver had harassed her and said, uh, threatened to pull her. hijab off and called her a terrorist, et cetera. She said I was in the cab with my sister. She later, a few days later, filed a report with a D.C. Ethics Commission and the taxi cab

commission that stated, I foiled the report. It stated I was in the car with my sister. Now, we know so she has testified here. This is a legal document. She could be punished for perjury for filing that falsely. Then the person she was with, she identified as her sister. This person who we can place at that event, having dinner with her, said that sister was Lela Elmi. Which makes her second husband her brother.

And this is a, it's a very complex story, but it's a very complex story. it is very buttoned up. David, I salute you and all those who have risked so much and spent so much time on this story. I think this story is finally going to get its due. Hopefully, justice will be done. There is enough here to demand legal action to be taken as in form of an investigation. She should be presumed innocent until proven guilty, but if I would, were on a grand jury, there is more than enough to say, yes, prosecutors should look at investigating her and buttoning these things up. If these things are absolutely true, she should be compelled to testify and answer some of these questions. And these are,

it's not only fraud, it's forgery. I'm sorry, it's not only forgery and fraud. It is a felony. David, thank you so much. Appreciate it. Thanks, luckily. You bet.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Justin Haskins is in studio with us. He's the executive editor of the Heartland Institute. And correct me if I'm wrong. Justin, didn't you and I first interact because you were started, was it the Heartland Institute? You started this expose, if you will, or the exposing of socialism. So, yeah, we started stoppingsocialism.com.

That's what it was. That's right. Stoppingsocialism.com. Go there now. back in the summer of last year, so basically a year ago. It was only a year ago? It was only a year ago. It was really spurred on by the rise of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

and some of the stuff that I was seeing with my own generation. I'm a young guy. Yeah, yeah. Seeing people fall in love with socialism all over again. It's crazy. And you really have to not be able to think, you know, or you're just, you're in willful ignorance. And there's no critical thinking engaged at all.

not at all and and and and a I mean you talked about willful ignorance I mean it's sort of willful but it's also my generation grew up I went to a public school in the liberal northeast and so I get it I mean I was indoctrinated like everybody else I mean it didn't take with me but it took with just about everybody else around me so I understand so how was it how was it taught to you how was socialism you say indoctrinated I grew up I went in school I was in school in the 70s a graduated high school in 82. So I missed, apparently, I missed all of this indoctrination. How is it, how is it presented in school? It's, it's presented in school as capitalism is for greedy, heartless, terrible people. You're a terrible person if you're a capitalist. Okay. And socialism is basically

charity. That's what it is. It's some kind of form of charity. And yeah, there are all these socialist governments all throughout history that screwed it up, but that's because they were authoritarian socialist government. If they had only been democratic, then that would have solved all of their problems. Although they were all democratic, at least at first. They all got in with a vote. Yeah, that's right.

That's how it always starts. See, it always starts with democracy and then it devolves very quickly into tyranny. Right. Yes, yes. Yeah, they skipped over that part of the history lesson in school. But that's how it's always sold. It's, look, we're making progress. Things are getting better. We just need to put the right

bureaucrats in place. We need to have the right Gosh. I mean, it's the same. This is the end of Wilson's dream. It is. It really is. Before I came here, actually, on the plane, I was re-listening to Liars, a great book, by the way. Thank you very much. Thank you. And when going over that history all over again, it's astounding how this is just repeating itself. Over and over and over again. It's the same story that was in the early 1900s and even late 1800s is playing out again, a hundred years later. We've learned. learned nothing. We've learned absolutely Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, they will be known unless we turn the tide this time. They're

going to be known as the robber barons of this era. Yeah. And look at the good that they have done. Absolutely. I talk about this all the time with people. My wife is a doctor, so I know a lot of doctors. They love single pair health care. They're all academic doctors.

Love it. It's crazy. It is because I tell them all the time. Look, who do you think they're coming for first? Who do you think is going to be the first scapegoat when things start to go wrong? When tossed are too high. You guys are all making 500, 600, $600,000, $700,000 a year, the surgeons and stuff like that? Do you think that they're just going to let you do this forever? Of course not. Do you think they care that you have a half a million dollars in student loan debt and all this stuff? No, they'll forgive it and you have to work for them. And then you work for them at whatever price they pay. So that is absolutely going to come. They're going to be demonized too.

There are all sorts of, this is how socialism always plays out. There is always a shifting group of people who become, if only we could get rid of them, or if only we could somehow put the chains on them. They're the problem, not us, them. And it shifts because as soon as they put the chains on one group, that doesn't work, they have to put the chains on another group. And it goes back and forth over and over and over. And if, you know, I'm a watch collector.

And I love the story of one of them. is Glashut and the other is A. Leinens and Sohn. And these were really great watches that were made in Germany until the Soviet Union took over. And all of the watchmakers fled and they went to the West. So they all went to Switzerland and they all started making watches there. As soon as the wall came down, they went back to those areas. And now they're making these, you know, timeless brands again. But the funny part about this is, is that is why the Russians had a hard time keeping time, literally keeping time.

They killed anybody who knew who was a watchmaker because they were part of the, you know, they were part of the upper crust that were crushing the masses. And so they left and they killed the ones who didn't. And forever they had a hard time just making a watch. Yeah, that's amazing. And we've seen this especially in China. I mean, China had a remarkable history of elevating one group of people to being this special class of people and then killing them all off and imprisoning them because they're the problem. And then the educated people were the problem.

So then we have to imprison all of them and we have to kill them and we have to get them out of the way. And then it was the farmers who were the problem. And then it was back to the educated people. Correct. It's the same because it can never be them. It can never be the people in power. Or the ideas. Right.

You can never impugn the ideas. Exactly. So a good example of this is the people in power can always do what they have to do, but they never hold, they never allow that to happen any place else. And let me give you an example. Bernie Sanders, $15 an hour. Okay. Everybody has to do it.

And you say, Bernie, it doesn't work. What will happen is people will either reduce the hours that those people work, which will hurt them, or they will, they'll fire people. Tell me the story about Bernie Sanders. This is, I think, my favorite story of this year. I love this story. So Bernie Sanders, a socialist running around the country telling everybody, it's not just a good idea to have a $15 minimum wage, but it is immoral if you don't. You're exploiting people who do not earn $15 an hour. While he's doing this, it turns out.

out he's not paying his own lowest wage workers $15 an hour. He's making them work 60 hours a week for about $13 an hour, okay? Which is just astounding in and of itself. But the best part is... 60 hours. Yes, 60 hours. Right. 60 hours. The best part is, though, that he, the workers who are unionized, by the way, the campaign

workers are unionized, they get together and they complain and they say, hey, this isn't fair. I thought this was a living wage. We're not getting paid a living wage, $15 an hour. So they go to the bosses, which is now the socialist presidential candidate is now the boss, negotiating with a socialist union in a presidential campaign, which is amazing. And they say, hey, we need more money. Give us more money. And they say, all right, all right, we'll give you more money.

But only if, only if you're willing to take a cut on your health care benefits, you have to contribute more to your health care. It's the only way we'll give you the pay raise. well wait a minute I thought healthcare was a human right isn't healthcare a human right so now you have Bernie Sanders a socialist exploiting his own workers

when they complain he then tries to take away their human rights this is amazing I mean this is the best story and then it gets even better finally they come to a resolution I love his passion finally finally it comes to a resolution

they say all right guys we'll settle on it amounts to basically $16 an hour And we're not going to cut your health care benefits because the media found out, which is a whole other thing. The media finds out, right? So then the next day, basically, Rashida Talib, another socialist from Michigan, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, she comes out and says, you know what? $15, that's not enough. You've got to pay $20 for a minimum wage.

$15 was good before when we started all this. But now we need $20, $20. So Bernie Sanders, according to Rashida Thiele and other socials, is still exploiting his own workers. I love that. And with the candidates and the way the socialists are working now, it's almost like an auction. I got 15, 15, 15, do I hear 20, 20, 22, 22, 22, thank you, ma'am. Do I hear 25?

I mean, it is just an auction on who can be the highest bidder. And the results are the same. Did he not have to reduce everybody? And some people quit. I believe some people were fired, were they not? Their hours were reduced. The end result was we're only going to make you work 50 hours. And originally they wanted him to work six days a week.

They ended up settling on, we're working 50 hours and we'll pay you a salary. So he's not, but you're not going to get what you wanted initially. I'm sorry, we just don't have enough money. So we're going to have to cut hours. We're going to have to maybe cut staff. How is it that people don't see or is it just willful blindness? I think that people, and I think we saw this with Barack Obama, and I think you see it a little bit with Bernie Sanders, maybe not quite as passionately, but people desperately want to believe in this guy. They want to believe that there is some alternative answer that's going to fix all of our problems and that he represents that.

He's somehow above it all, which we saw that with Barack Obama. People wanted to believe it. They wanted to, even when all the facts pointed to something else, they said, I want to believe in this guy. And I think that there are a lot of people on the left who want to believe in Bernie Sanders, even when he's, according to his own logic, exploiting his own workers and denying them human rights. So that's ridiculous. You have Elizabeth Warren now at times in some polls beating Bernie Sanders. Let me take a quick break. And then I want to talk to you about the socialism of Elizabeth Warren.

And how do you think this is going to play out? They have a mutually assured destruction pact going on. Don't say anything because we'll just kill each other. And I want to get your advice on or your thoughts on how you think this is going to play out. Because Bernie Sanders is not going to be the candidate, just not going to be the candidate. But you're smiling at me. Maybe you know something I don't know. The Blaze Radio Network on demand.
