Starting point is 00:00:00 The Blaze Radio Network. On demand. Glenn back. All right, everybody. Prepare yourself for a collective jazz snap because what you're about to hear is perfect for the nauseatingly pretentious applause of the progressive crowd. So here we go.
Starting point is 00:00:23 It centers around an artwork, a piece of art, beautiful art, titled Flag Number Two. It's by a German artist, smeared with black paint and the engraving of a striped sock. Now, according to the artist, this represents a new symbolic meaning in the light of recent imprisonment of the immigrant children at the border. Oh, my gosh. I've seen this art. It was hanging on a flagpole in the University of Kansas, I believe it was. just it's beautiful. I mean, it looks like somebody just slap some black paint on a flag,
Starting point is 00:01:05 but that's not what it is. No, no, no. The German-born artist also reminds us, let's not forget that we all came from somewhere. And we're only recent occupants of this country. Native cultures, new to take care of this continent, much better for thousands of years before us. Oh, did they?
Starting point is 00:01:25 It's about time for our differences to unite us. rather than to divide us. You know, I love being lectured by a German, because they're always so inclusive. When they talk to me about, you know, hey, let's make sure that we're not rounding people up, I listen to the Germans. Now, this is an art project sponsored by the Creative Time Project.
Starting point is 00:01:55 The art project is part of a larger series called Pledges of Allegiance, in which each artist designs a flag that points to an issue the artist is passionate about because they believe that issue is worth fighting for, and it speaks to how we might move forward. Here's my favorite word, collectively. Oh, that is great. And you couldn't have found anything else to put it on except an American flag. That's an interesting choice. most of the other flags have clouds or the blank canvas. I like that one. It's just white. It's called laziness. Slogans like horror film called Western civilization. And don't worry, be angry. It's all a beautiful, beautiful art project that you're probably paying for if you have kids in
Starting point is 00:02:55 university. The flag is a collage of an American flag. One, of my dripped paintings and resembles the contours of the United States. I've seen it. No, it doesn't. I divided the shape of the country into two for the flag represents and is designed to reflect a deeply polarized country in which a president is openly bragged about harassing women and is withdrawing from the Kyoto Protocol, as if those two things aren't as equally bad.
Starting point is 00:03:28 As much as we may not like it or agree, with it. This artist is protesting peacefully. Now, this is the thing. They absolutely have a right to express their anger and their opinions with their freedom of speech. We don't have to like it. We don't have to condone it. I don't even have to call it art.
Starting point is 00:03:52 But we're shooting ourselves in the foot if we don't at least respect the right to freedom of speech. I'm just tired of pain for it. And I'm also tired of hearing from people who say, you can't. It's Cinco de Mayo. Oh, my goodness, we have to expel these kids who are wearing an American flag t-shirt. And then you could do whatever you want to the American flag and run it up the flagpole at a university. These are the same people who throw a tantrum anytime someone orders a chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A. But in the end, let's just remember,
Starting point is 00:04:33 we're the ones that actually get the chicken sandwiches. They don't have, they don't get anything. One problem with the flag. And that is the display at a public university. I just want the left to imagine. Now, I know you don't, you're now starting to back away from the First Amendment because the First Amendment is being used against you. No.
Starting point is 00:05:01 The only reason why the First Amendment, is being used, quote, against you is because the only speech that needs protecting is the speech that the majority doesn't like. Now, you're not the majority by any stretch of the imagination, but you are the majority in the universities, in the media, and in the government now. You have some ability to make us feel like we are. are in the minority. You're calling all the shots and writing all the rules. That's the only reason why the First Amendment now is coming into play.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Because when you were going to court to defend your right to speak, you were defending a crucifix in urine. We're going to court to say, I don't have to say those things. I'm a doctor. I don't have to call this man a woman because, he thinks he's a woman. That's not science. Boy, in the grand scheme of things,
Starting point is 00:06:14 I think I'd rather be on the side of science than the cross in urine. I mean, don't get me wrong. It was beautiful art, and I hope you made a lot of money on that. That was great. Now, let me ask you this. You did that.
Starting point is 00:06:28 What do you think the response would be if a conservative art collective stained a rainbow flag and called it an art project and raised it on a flagpole at a public university do you think you'd be okay with that? You see, it runs both ways.
Starting point is 00:06:53 How about if a university of Texas raised a rebel flag and called it art? See, this is the key. If conservatives and libertarians want to be political, on campus. Apparently, all you have to do is do it under the guise of art. Apparently, that's the way you get it done.
Starting point is 00:07:21 It's Thursday, July 12th. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. You know, I think the win here is just to totally remain calm. The win here is the things that are going on are so ridiculous that all you have have to do is just remain calm the whole time. For instance, I could be really upset at the, at the whole idea that I've been called and smeared and, um, and really run through the mud as a conspiracy theorist because one of the conspiracies was that I debunked the FEMA camps. Okay. Now, that's never, that's, you never read all of that. You just read conspiracy theorist,
Starting point is 00:08:10 Glenn Beck, who talked about FEMA camps. Yes, I did. I debunked them. But they made that into a conspiracy for me because they said you were even talking about a conspiracy. And because you even brought it up, you gave it credibility. Now, I could be angry when I hear things from MSNBC like I'm going to play for you. But the winning play here is again. just to remain calm and point it out. Because there was a conspiracy of FEMA camps. Oh, Barack Obama, and first I think it was George Bush, is building these FEMA camps,
Starting point is 00:08:54 and they've got all these bags where they're going to bury people, and it's really, okay, shut up. Not true. The other conspiracy that we were really clear on was the birth certificate, the birth certificate of Barack Obama. there's this a it's not true
Starting point is 00:09:14 B if it was at that point it didn't wouldn't it wouldn't have meant anything it wouldn't have done anything you could have had proof positive and it would not have removed him from office a lot like what the left is now saying about Donald Trump what do you do to get this guy out of office you could have had a KGB agent saying
Starting point is 00:09:37 yes this was a fake burst of we put together. His name is actually Boris. And it wouldn't have made any difference at all. So, I'm a conspiracy theorist. I want you to listen to this from MSNBC. Okay. It sounds insane. I just want to say it really does. Like, the idea that he went, he goes to Moscow in 87, is cultivated as a Russian intelligence opposite asset and is this sort of like sleeper cell for decades sounds nuts. It sounds like. It sounds like, It's like the stuff of conspiracy theories. Why are you not insane?
Starting point is 00:10:15 So that's a great question, Chris. I get that all the time. So first of all, the piece acknowledges that that is probably not true, but it might be. And one of the reasons I wrote this is- Stop, stop. It's probably not true, but it might be. So wait a minute, hang on. What we're talking about here, and they went on for about, what, 14 minutes or so?
Starting point is 00:10:36 I think eight. So they go on and they're saying, look, this sounds not. nuts. Well, what's nuts that Donald Trump has been a Soviet sleeper agent since the 1980s, just waiting to be activated? And then he said, well, the piece itself acknowledges that this probably isn't true. Oh. Oh. Okay. You take seriously some of these low probability high impact scenarios. You know, before the election. Wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:11:12 So it's the press's duty to take on these low probability and high, what was it? High impact. High impact. Fearies. Oh. Okay. I just, we should just write this down so we know. It seems like the FEMA camps were low probability.
Starting point is 00:11:34 but high impact, potentially. Everyone heard that Hillary Clinton had about an 80% chance of winning, and we all just treated it like that meant 100% and didn't think about what would that 20% alternative really mean. So that's part of what I'm doing with this, with aspects of this piece like this trip to Moscow. You know, what would it mean if it really went that deep? Now, there's a lot of ways that-
Starting point is 00:11:58 I love this. I love this. So what would it mean? Well, with this trip to Moscow, I mean, I just, we're just writing this. It was just, it's not the Atlantic. This was New York Magazine. New York Magazine. So we're just, I'm just writing this and saying, what would it mean his trip to Russia if he were a sleeper cell from the 1980s? Well, gee, I think that's a pretty short article.
Starting point is 00:12:26 It would be really bad. It would mean really bad things. Yeah. Well, and wasn't the theory with. Barack Obama gives a birth certificate the fact that he was a sleeper cell. He was a sleeper cell. Yes. That the Russians had planned this all along.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Right. Right. These are birthers. Yeah. This is birthers. And here is MSNBC doing it. They're pushing it. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Scandal could be really bad and not go that deep. But I think you need to consider that for another reason, which is that everyone always says, well, this has been Trump's view forever. All this stuff he's saying with the Western allies splitting us apart from the West and how he's He was sort of pissing on them all the time and saying, you know, we should let them go their own way. That's just what he's always thought. It's not really what he's always thought. It's what he's thought since 1987.
Starting point is 00:13:12 He never thought that before then, or at least he never said it before then. And in 1987 is when he went to Moscow, and he's fetid by the Russians and towards Moscow. And then he comes back. Then he starts talking about running for president for the first time. And then he starts talking for the first time about how our allies are a bunch of freeloaders and we should kick him to the curb. Yeah, and we should say that he is. I mean, I just, where was he in 1985? Where was he?
Starting point is 00:13:36 Trump? Yeah, where was his height? Because his height was at the end of the Reagan administration, wasn't it? Mm-hmm. Yeah, when he, he bought his first casino, I think, in the late 80s. Right. Okay, so he's now, then he starts to go on record about the, well, well, yeah, people knew who he was then.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Right. And he was a big mogul by that time. Yes. And that's around the time that art for the art of the. deal came out. Then people started listening to him. They were listening to him in 1975. It's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:14:09 What were Glenn Beck's views in 1969? I don't know. I was four. Nobody was really listening to me then. Isn't that the same time you visited Canada, though? And then have always been... Oops, hang on. His mic was just unplugged or something.
Starting point is 00:14:28 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. it is life lock security professionals warning now of email fishing scams targeting world cup fans I'm completely safe this is just just yet another reason America is number one we don't have to worry about the World Cup thing in fact this thing has gone on so long now I'm beginning to question the rest of the world I really am they're all you know you read day after day oh this country's depressed oh England's depressed get over it It's soccer. Nobody in, well, at least in the place that counts,
Starting point is 00:15:06 cares about the soccer cup, whatever it is. Okay. Anyway, they're now fishing for anybody who is connected online with the World Cup. So if you're looking for information, et cetera, et cetera, it can come on in and put a weak link into your system.

Starting point is 00:16:10 So the year that I was made, a defender of Israel, and given that award by Benjamin Netanyahu, is the year that I was also called an anti-Semite for discussing the facts, the facts that George Soros manipulates world markets and is working to manipulate the governments of the world. There was also the fact
Starting point is 00:16:40 that he was made to go out with Nazis and show up at the home of Jews and invite them to leave their homes. Right. When he was a kid. And I don't condemn him for that. He was a kid at the time. And we only get that from him.
Starting point is 00:16:56 From him. From him. Right. So anyway. But that's a conspiracy theory. Yeah. Okay. But Chris Hayes and New York Magazine with Jonathan Chate, which I believe has hate, just drop one letter and you've got hate. You can't spell Chate without hate. You can't do it. So he writes a story in New York Magazine that says that Donald Trump is a sleeper spy for the former Soviet Union. The KGB turned him in 1987 on his first trip to Russia. Now, he says this is most likely not true, but he feels that, and so does Chris Hayes, that we have to look at these low probability, high impact theories.
Starting point is 00:17:44 And just to, you know, prepare because, you know, we all thought that Hillary Clinton was going to win. And she didn't. So what happens if this is true? I'm going to spill the beans. I'm going to do it, Pat, as I'm tired of living this lie. Oh, no. I'm going to do it. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Now, if Stewart were here, would he recommend you not? He would recommend that I don't. He would say, don't do it. Let's talk about it off the air first. But I'm going to tell, you know what I'm going to. I'm going to talk about NASA. I'm going to do it. Don't.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Here's the deal. Does anybody remember any interviews with Donald Trump before Apollo 11? So, 1969? No, I don't. You don't remember any. You don't remember any. I don't. Then suddenly a few years after Apollo 11th.
Starting point is 00:18:28 11, he appears and he becomes this giant mogul. Now, this is probably not true. Imagine the impact, though, if it is. Okay. We're talking Donald Trump is a moon baby. And Neil Armstrong. So you're saying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin found him on the surface. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:46 And they brought him back. He was a, he is a plant from the dark side of the moon. We don't even know where his loyalties lie. No. Well, the dark side of the moon. You know what the dark side of the moon is? I don't. It's dark because when you look into a cannon, what's it look like?
Starting point is 00:19:02 It looks dark. It looks dark. Very dark. The moon, the other side, is actually the opening of a giant space cannon. Now, that's probably not true, but imagine if it were. Okay. And the moon is actually the cannonball in the giant space cannon. That's high impact.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And when the moon baby commands it, notice he's calling for a space force? Yeah. Hello? Yeah. When the moon baby commands it, the moon turns around, and we're looking at the dark side of the moon, which is the inside of the cannon. Canon. And they're going to fire the moon at us. Now, imagine a big impact.
Starting point is 00:19:38 That's the biggest impact. Am I right? Huge. We have a responsibility to get this information to Chris Hayes. Because Chris Hayes will expose this because this is the biggest impact, low probability. that I can imagine Donald Trump is a moon baby. This is really going to surprise you,
Starting point is 00:20:02 but the media does a really terrible job at a lot of things. And one of the things that do a terrible job at is covering cryptocurrencies. They will just take, you know, someone like Jamie Diamond from JP Morgan who came out and called Bitcoin a fraud. And then they don't really cover the fact
Starting point is 00:20:17 that J.P. Morgan wound up emerging as one of the most active buyers on behalf of their clients of a fund that tracks the Bitcoin price. George Soros did the, same type of thing. You've got to have the full picture. Experts are all over the map when it comes to cryptocurrencies. You need to know the facts. We're going to explore this in a live, free online broadcast that Glenn is going to personally host on July 19th. Go to Beckcrow

So I am still a little perplexed by the lack of coverage from the conservative side on a,
Starting point is 00:21:17 what I think is a really important story. And I don't know why people aren't picking this up. Do you have any ideas, Pat? of the the 3D printed gun, uh, freedom of speech case that, that, uh,
Starting point is 00:21:33 that, uh, was, uh, was suing the government because he said, they shut him down, called him a terrorist, for putting the,
Starting point is 00:21:45 uh, schematics and, yeah, lack of a better term, the schematics of a gun to be 3D printed. And that you can't do that. Well, he won the case.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And the government. had to not only pay for his attorney fees, but they had to admit that they were wrong, that 3D printing, the schematics can be shared online, up to a 50 caliber, no automatic weapons, and they also had to admit that the AR-15
Starting point is 00:22:14 is not a weapon of war. How is this not a big story? I don't know. It doesn't even seem like foxes necessarily. I know. Nobody's on this. We have a code. Wilson joining us in about half an hour from now. So don't, don't miss that. Let's see. Do we want to want to go back to the MSNBC or do you want to move to Stephen Crowder? The Crowder is, the Crowder confrontation is pretty fun. Okay. So Stephen Crowder is a guy who is just
Starting point is 00:22:49 fearless. And he has, he has gone out. He was in Austin. And he was holding the, these, you know, change my mind sessions out on the street where he would, they'd be a big statement behind him. And I don't remember what the one was in Austin, but it was about transgenderism. That, you know, there's. I think it was how many genders are there. It was that what he was asking? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Yeah. And his thing was there were two. Right. And he's, and so he just does this thing, change my mind. And he invites people who are walking down the street to change his mind. Well, one of the people that was running. for I think city council, who is a transgendered woman, sat down and spent 40 minutes with him. And they talked and it was a really, I watched it.
Starting point is 00:23:37 It was a really interesting conversation. Well, while that was happening, there was somebody in Austin that tweeted, Stephen Crowder is at this location. Somebody's got to go slash their tires or surround them and remind them, you know, that they should be more prepared. to come to our city. And he gave him the exact location of where to go find him. Right. Okay. So Crowder finds this and decides to print all the evidence. And before he goes to police, he decides to go to the guy who he knows where he's working and say, hey, dude, before I call the police, will you just take this down and apologize? Here's what happened. Ah, Austin, Texas, a city of great coffee, great food, great conversation, and people who want to vandalize our property and see us die.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Meet B. He's just your local transgender juice barista who calls for acts of violence in a spare time. What kinds of acts? Like publicly posting our specific location with calls to visit us, slash our tires, and teach us lessons ensuring that we'll never make ourselves vulnerable again. How do we know that he, she, Z meant business? Because he, she, Z said so while recruiting the same friends who helped him deface the robbery E. at you at UT. Silly.
Starting point is 00:24:52 That's a crime, too. Oh, well. Civility's great, but you plot violence. It's time to confront. Hey, kids. So he actually goes into the place of business. Remember me? No?
Starting point is 00:25:18 No? You don't remember me at all? Stephen Crowder at all? No, not familiar? No. This is you threatening to slash my tires here? Oh my gosh. Remember this?
Starting point is 00:25:27 Slash my... Hey, stop. He first says no. No, I don't know. No, I don't know who you are. He clearly does because Stephen walks in with this giant poster board of his Twitter page or his Facebook page. And it's posted a picture of Stephen Crowder. He knows who Stephen Crowder is, obviously.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Soon as he says, oh, really? You don't know who I am? Because this is the evidence that you do. The kid immediately then says, hey, dude, you just really need to chill out. Tires and actually, funny enough, also, also the Robert Lee statue seems you helped to face. We're trying to work. Let me ask you, why do you think it's okay to threaten to slash someone's tires? Hey, I didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Predictable Z, the first instinct is always denial. But why do you do this, oh man? You realize that you put our crew in danger. Lucky for us, we had a Bristol board. How about you check this out here? Before we, we'll leave this, yeah, yeah, I'm a conservative who has a difference of opinion from you. And I've never threatened actions of violence. I've never threatened to slash anyone.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Okay, stop for a second. Now, if you're one, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to. watching, if you would be watching this, you will notice that now the Barista's boss is now standing between him and Stephen Crowder and defending him. Now, I just want you to remember what happened at Starbucks. At Starbucks. Now look at what is happening to this guy, a guy who has threatened someone else and has admitted on his Facebook page that he was also behind the vandalism of a statue in Austin.
Starting point is 00:27:06 So you're working with a guy who has now admittedly done two crimes. Call the police. You know what, let's call the police. Officers, because as a matter of fact, we actually have that. No, no, actually, I would like to speak with the police. We're about to file a report very soon. Okay, you should do that, man. This is a part of being a man is owning up to the actions here.
Starting point is 00:27:24 When you threaten violence against someone. When you threaten violence against someone, Part of being a man is taking ownership of your actions, taking responsibility. And this is really pretty kind, I think, of Stephen, because this person's fairly new as a man. And so this is a nice life lesson in how to, you know, solidify your identity. I think it's helpful. It's helpful. You would come back when I was off work.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I will, but could you just, but I don't believe you're going to be here because you're a dishonest human being. You said you didn't even pose this and acted like you didn't know me. I think you're a liar. I think you need to go. Let me ask you this. Could you just say, hey, you're sorry, take this down. Could you take this down? Could you take it down?
Starting point is 00:28:02 It's not going anywhere? Oh, there you go. He just admitted to doing it. My name's on it, of course. It has nothing to do it anymore. So you think it's okay to threaten someone and slash their tires? I didn't do it. So was it a joke?
Starting point is 00:28:14 Are your tires okay? So does that make it? You know, it's a crime. It's a crime to threaten this. You understand that, right? Okay, it's a crime. Could you take it down? Could you take it down?
Starting point is 00:28:23 No, it's a crime. Could you take it down and just say, hey, listen, I don't really want to call actions to violence that people disagree. I think it's time for you to go. Part of being, come on. You want to play the part. Part of being a man is owning up to the actions and are getting what you did. They called the police? Well, good. I think they should call the
Starting point is 00:28:39 police. I think it's called police. We should file a report. I would like to before filing a report, offer you the chance to take it down and just stop with the threats of violence. You stop with the threats, you take it. I think Stephen Crowder is being really magnanimous here. Yeah. Just take it
Starting point is 00:28:55 down. Just take it down and apologize. and say, I don't want anything to do with violence. Tells him it's not going anywhere. He's not going to. He has no intention of taking it down. Why? I don't know. The guy's serious about being violent to Stephen Crowder?
Starting point is 00:29:13 Because I believe he hates him so much. He is not afraid of what happens when Stephen Crowder leaves. He is surrounded by people who think he's right and think that what he's done is okay. to do on conservatives or two conservatives. Now, if he were a conservative and some liberal walked in and outed him as a conservative, I would bet you that his boss would not protect him like that. He's not afraid of any consequence because there are no consequences when you are on
Starting point is 00:29:50 the progressive or the postmodernist side. You can do whatever you want. and there are no consequences. I already am, but everybody knows it because it doesn't matter. Yeah, I know. Just, hey, just keep looking at me. You're all right. Why do you think this person is being abused?
Starting point is 00:30:07 This is a threat of violence. I'm not going to. You're not going to read it. You're not actually. First off, I would never threaten anyone here with violence. I hate violence. Certainly for political opinions. Well, we actually had to change my mind,
Starting point is 00:30:17 which is a segment we do where we sit down. We actually had Danielle here, who's running for city council. With transgender person sit down for 40 minutes and talk. At that time, K-H was threatening to slash our tires and someone who works at UT was asking. or Cardiffy firebombed. The time for disgusting is over. It's time to renounce the acts of violence coming from people who you employ. So I can't speak to this. I'm on the clock. I can't speak to this right now, dude. I can you? Can you?
Starting point is 00:30:41 And I've listened to you. Please step out. Here, look, I'll help you. I'll take your poster outside for you. No, no, I'd like you to keep it here for when the police arrive. But I would love it for when the police arrive, because that's actually evidence, so I'd like to keep it. Now he snaps the poster in half. Where did you put the board? One of your friends
Starting point is 00:30:57 nicely yanked it out of my hands and he has it outside. Gosh, so they got slightly Yankee. A little Yankee. A little Yankee. A little Yankee. A little Yankee. Yeah, just like a little... Great. Well, I hope we have it on camera. All of you need to walk out with your Gopros and your pretty cameras. Oh, that's right. I guess no right to film.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Okay, so this ends with the police coming. And the police don't go after Stephen Crowder. And they don't arrest the other kid. either. However, Stephen does fill out a complaint and they say that they are going to be looking into it. Now, we're going to follow this story because I'd like to see what looking into it means from the Austin Police Department. If you are threatening people with firebombing, if you are claiming that you are part of defacing public property, if you are inciting people to go to a specific location at a specific time
Starting point is 00:31:58 and either firebom or slash tires, does that matter? Does that matter? It should and it would if it was on the right. But like you said, I don't know in this case. I don't think it will. No. He'll get no consequence from this. And anyone, remember that someone just wouldn't obey the Starbucks rules. The rules.
Starting point is 00:32:25 You've got to buy something, anything. You have to be a customer to use the bathroom and to stay here. They called police on that. And that was so offensive that the Starbucks chain shut down for a day. Here's this little juice bar that I'm sure nothing's going to happen because I'm sure it's local and it's in Austin and it's in the progressive little. little, you know, neo-Marxist neighborhood. And they're not going to do anything about it. In fact, they will wear this as a badge of honor and he will become a superstar.
Starting point is 00:33:07 He'll become the barista at this juice bar. And no lesson will be learned. And we'll probably see him on Stephen Colbert. And he'll be a little celebrity for 15, 20 minutes. The little barista himself, I bet you. Colbert will get him and Jimmy Kimmel. Well, I don't know about that. I mean, it's not like somebody could bring a clock into class that looks kind of like a bomb.
Starting point is 00:33:38 No else. Yeah. He becomes famous. Here's our sponsor this F hour. It's Casper. Casper wants to make sure that you have the best night's sleep. And the best way to do that is to test a mattress out. You know, if you have a new pair of shoes, I have.
Starting point is 00:34:01 a pair of shoes in my closet that I bought, I wore like two times. I wore them in the store and I like them. And then I wore them a couple of other times and they were so uncomfortable. I hated them. If that's ever happened to you, can you imagine what's happening with the mattress that you're sleeping on? You buy a mattress because you'll go into the store and you'll flop around on it for a few minutes. That doesn't tell you anything. And then what happens if you don't like it? You just live with it. Don't. Try a Casper mattress for a hundred nights with their 100 night's sleep challenge. 100 nights. If you're not getting a great sleep, you know, by night 40, send it back. And they come and pick it up and they refund every single penny without a question asked.
Starting point is 00:34:49 It is Casper. Use the promo code Beck right now and you're going to save, I can't remember how much it is, 50 bucks on select mattresses. It's promo code back at casper.com. Terms and conditions to apply, casper.com. Welcome to the program. Glad you're here. So I am very curious as to why the media, even on the right, are not following a story about a massive free speech lawsuit that the government just lost to Cody Wilson. and S-A-F. Now, what this is, is Cody Wilson was on our program,
Starting point is 00:35:36 I don't know, five years ago, and you know him from this quote. You know, in whose conception, under what paradigm? You know, I'm just resisting. What am I resisting? I don't know. The collectivization of manufacture, the institutionalization of the human psyche.
Starting point is 00:35:50 I'm not sure, but I can tell you one thing. This is a symbol of reversibility. They can never eradicate the gun from the earth. Right. Okay. is true, the symbol of irreversibility that can never eradicate the gun from the earth. That is what this was all about, this lawsuit. Do you have the right to put basic schematics up of a gun in 3D printed form so you can download it to a 3D printer and print and make your own guns? the court decided, yes, that is freedom of speech.
Starting point is 00:36:31 So now he can continue to post these things. Also, they admitted that the AR-15 is a modern sporting rifle, and the government was forced to say that this is not a weapon of war. So, why isn't this being covered? and is this a good thing? I want you to hear from Cody Wilson himself. He's from Defense Distributed. He's coming up in just a second.
Starting point is 00:37:05 He is a admitted. Anarchist. Anarchist. Yeah, free market anarchist. I don't think he believes in trademarks and copyrights, which I have a problem with. But he has made a great. great deal of coverage here, I think, for the Second Amendment.
Starting point is 00:37:30 And you have to hear from him yourself. What does this mean for the future? Cody Wilson joins us in a second. Glenn Beck. It's Thursday, July 12th. Yeah, yeah. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. Right, okay, get off my back.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Cody Wilson is the founder and I believe CEO of Defense Distributed This is a company that makes digital files that lets anyone print 3D untraceable guns. He is also in the business of making the actual printers, and I have purchased one of these guns. We have it in our collection for our museum because I think this is an important step. One of the very first 3D printed guns. If you ever handle it, you would have no idea that this is. I've handed it to people before who were gun people and said, tell me about this gun.
Starting point is 00:38:29 What do you think about this gun? Well, that's great. Yeah, it's 3D printed. They can't believe it. But the world is changing. Now, he was sued. I'm sorry, he was stopped by the government. They called him all kinds of names.
Starting point is 00:38:44 He sued and he won. The government came out with quite a statement this week. It's not getting a lot of press. And I don't know why we have Cody on with us. Hello, Cody. How are you? Hey, Mr. Beck. Good morning. So, Cody, you are an interesting dude. Let's start with a couple of definitions from you on how you describe yourself.
Starting point is 00:39:12 You're a crypto anarchist. Can you define that? What does that mean? That's just for the kids, man. But basically, you know, in the 80s, they came up with these. this idea that the internet would allow, if not outright political anarchy, at least a virtual form, which would mean like we'd get things like Bitcoin and we get things like WikiLeaks and these liquid markets of information that no government or set of governments could really
Starting point is 00:39:41 prevent the creation of such economies. I mean, the people demanded it and the frictionless flows of information would allow them. I simply claimed back in the day that liquid information and guns would be a part of that. So it's kind of a, I keep getting called a radical these days, but, you know, when the Department of Justice comes out and says what you're doing is constitutional, or they come out and say Brett Kavanaugh is some type of extremists for following the letter of the law, you know, it's funny how like the shoes switch feet these days. I don't feel like it's a radical right now. Yeah, I mean, I'm having a difficult time backing the government on what they claimed. This was the Obama administration that went after you.
Starting point is 00:40:24 But having a hard time with this. However, because of the world we're living in, there's no way that you're ever going to put the genie back in the bottle. 3D printed everything is just a part of our lives or will be soon. However, you know, it is kind of a frightening thing that we should actually discuss because anybody can print anything. And now if you're afraid of everybody, that's, you know, that's a problem with society. Just real quick, free market anarchists, what is that? I don't know. Basic principles of free market anarchy, that you think markets, not law and other
Starting point is 00:41:05 arbitrary systems. hierarchy should determine things, but look, I mean, what I vote, maybe, but the important thing is I'm glad that the political American tides that serve like our gun culture, for example. I'm glad they exist. I like being American. I like being a part of this unique history that put the popular ownership of firearms in people's hands. And I believe that I helped the Second Amendment, in fact, with my political philosophy. I supplemented it. And I don't believe that like we're opposed necessarily. I like the old radical Republican ideals of the founding of this country. I know we share that in common. So, um, you know, so Cody, so why isn't the press,
Starting point is 00:41:47 because I see this as a huge victory for the Second Amendment. Why do you suppose no one is picking this story up? It's us in Wired Magazine. Yeah, that's true. Well, look, you had Kavanaugh. Trump determines the cycle. And the liberals right now this week were so worried about preserving Roe. I mean, honestly, I don't blame them.
Starting point is 00:42:09 And I even feel bad for him. I'm not hurt that this didn't get more press. If it did, I'd be having to watch. you know, watch my back or something. I know. So why report, why report on the fact that the Second Amendment is forever now? That didn't help you out, does it? Right. So tell me about, tell me what the ruling means in what you believe. One of your attorneys was Alan Gura, who is, you know, behind the Heller case.
Starting point is 00:42:33 He's one of the best Second Amendment attorneys, if not the best, in the country. Tell us what you think this means. That's right. I would say we got the number one guy, the guy that really gave us the modern Second Amendment. I did not want to do this wrong. What this means is it's really more revict you for the First Amendment. I know it's harder to translate for people. I know you guys will get that. This was the government ultimately on the merits question, running away from a real stinker of a First Amendment case where they would have to police or give themselves a plenary power to police. All the information related to guns online. Well, we all know that
Starting point is 00:43:08 that's absurd. So this is the government itself recognizing that it really shouldn't take on or even attempt to justify such a power. And I was frankly shocked to see it resolve this way. Yeah, I was too. So, Cody, does it, does it, you, what the ruling says is your
Starting point is 00:43:28 freedom of speech to publish all of this, which is basically, if you will, you know, a computer blueprint for a 3D printer to print the gun. You can do that. However, what about me downloading
Starting point is 00:43:44 it and printing a gun. That's not addressed, is it? Well, it is. I've got good news for you, sir. But the technicalities are the moving parts of this, this involved a bureau and the state department and this set of laws called the ITAR. The upshot is temporary modification to these laws has been created, and when I post these things and you come visit my site and post whatever you want, all that stuff gets committed to the commons, to the public domain and then is thereby free for everyone in the country to use. And it's free for you to come to my site and contribute yourself. So by me winning, every American has the unquestionable right
Starting point is 00:44:26 to traffic in this information. And we're not just talking 3D printing. 3D printing is a handle for it, but we're really talking about blueprints, CAD, CAM, for all the guns we know and love, everything. We're talking about the entire harvest, the entire computer-aided design and manufacturer of popular firearms. It's now free and clear and open for the rest of time. And I would not be in trouble in your view for printing a gun. No, no, it's a separate question, really, but as long as you've been able to own a gun in this country, you've been able to make one without question. Now, some states want to regulate it if you get into the business, right, of selling these guns and distributing them.
Starting point is 00:45:05 The federal government, that's when they step in. But what's great about this country is you've, you've always been able to make guns here. We've built this country on building gun. Huh. So your company, Defense Distributed, you're the one who made my gun, the one that I bought from you five years ago or so.
Starting point is 00:45:24 But now you're in, you're making the actual 3D printers that make those guns? Yeah, we found, we found an opportunity to make a milling machine that helps machine some 80% lowers and unfinished guns, and things like that.
Starting point is 00:45:38 Just an available place in the market. Maybe you won't believe me, but I only started that so I could fund this lawsuit. I just didn't know it would take like five years to get it done. Right. But blessed our naive, right? You know, we're too foolish to know that we can't win, and then you get lucky and you win. So are you selling those printers? Yeah, I am.
Starting point is 00:46:01 I have a website called Ghostgunner. Ghostgunner.comer.comnet. We sell mills for, gosh, 16. $1,700,700. It's, uh, and will that make the gun that, do you remember the 1911 you sold to me? Sure. I know what you're talking about. That's, that's a laser center, 1911.
Starting point is 00:46:18 No, that was quite a, a high-tech application. But our mill does finish unfinished 11 frames. So there's another way of making 1911s from what's called 80% frames. So that's, that's another great thing about our industry now and what digital technologies is done for the gun owner. there's lots of ways, right? There's lots of roads back to Rome. And this definitely contains one of them.
Starting point is 00:46:43 So, Cody, here's one of the things that I think we disagree on. And I'd love to hear your opinion. I think what made America, what changed people and changed the world was the patent or the copyright. It allowed the average person to dream and create and then change their status. I think that your view is that's just that's all gone anyway and is going to be posted online and you'll be able to print whatever you wanted. Is that, do you think that helps the progress of man, if you will? Well, I think the older, I agree with your assessment that giving people monopolies helps them out. So if it's really like the post-war distortions of IP that are objectionable to me, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:41 life of the author plus 70 years on these copyrights and things, you know, if we're going to have a set of intellectual property, let's make it truly useful for the commons, let's give people truly limited monopolies in their lifetimes, less than their lifetimes, you know, so that people can begin to benefit from other people's work. I'm okay with having compromises on these physicians. My idealist physician is that I think society on net would probably be better without strong patent and strong copyright laws.
Starting point is 00:48:10 But irony of ironies, the way I won this lawsuit, is that the State Department came in and gave me a monopoly to publish these files. So you know, what are you going to do? I get that there's benefits. No question there are benefits. Are you the only one now that can print these?
Starting point is 00:48:28 Or I mean, they can publish these? it's funny yes but I don't think they're going to penalize anyone else for for doing it and importantly you know because because of my position I'm not going to use that monopoly to be anti-competitive I'm just saying hey come to my website share the stuff here and then when I share it and put it up anyone can use it again you know so it's it's kind of a trick and I don't think most people even need to understand that
Starting point is 00:48:53 but it is ironic that a guy who who says hey we shouldn't give IP protections of people ends up winning with something like an IP protection. That is ironic. I want to Can you hold for a minute, Cody? I want to come back and I want to talk to you.
Starting point is 00:49:09 You were named Wired Magazine's 15 most dangerous people in the world. And a lot has happened in your life since we spoke about five years ago. And I just kind of like to recap some of those and hear your point of view of A, what is it like?
Starting point is 00:49:27 to be named one of the 15 most dangerous people in the world when we come back. All right, I want to talk to you a little bit about the Palm Beach research, cryptocurrency course that we've put together for our audience. Feedback's been really, really remarkable. Tika Tuari was in the studios a few weeks ago, and we decided that we should do an in-depth show for anybody who's interested in-depth and want to learn more. I'm not an expert on this by any stretch of the imagination,
Starting point is 00:49:56 but I do own cryptocurrency. I wish I would have bought it a lot earlier. And I don't know how this whole thing is going to shake out, but I think that cryptocurrency is part of our future, a big part of our future. I'll be hosting a special Thursday, July 19th. It's at 8 p.m. It's absolutely free.
Starting point is 00:50:16 You don't have to buy anything or have a subscription or anything. All you have to do is go to beckcripto show.com. Beck Crypto Show.com. In this show, we're going to be sharing the names of three cryptocurrencies that Tika says you need to buy now. You have a chance to win $2 million in crypto. Go to Beck Crypto Show.com. Register now.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Don't miss it. It's a week from tonight, Beck Crypto Show.com. We're talking to Cody Wilson, a fascinating, fascinating guy who has just changed the world. He's the founder of defense distributed, and in fact, Amowland just said this. Cody Wilson had a goal. That goal is to make all gun control irrelevant. Starting on July 27, 2018, his goal will come to fruition. You believe that, Cody?
Starting point is 00:51:15 Oh, I think in the hearts of men, it's already irrelevant, but you, strangely, you seem more. humble than when we spoke five years ago. What has life been like with you for the last five years? Well, you know, humbling could be an answer to that question, but, you know, there's, there's when you get started, there's being real hungry, right? There's being real ready for it. And then there's, you know, the world that give you everything you want in terms of difficulty. So, yeah, it's cool, man.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Yeah, I've been watching YouTube. You know, you get out there for long enough, you know, you just try to stay in the game. And there's a lot of room for being disheartened and you need courage and you need strength. And it's nice. I feel like I've been tempered somewhat by the difficulty. Yeah, I feel the same way. Cody, tell me, was it a humbling experience or was it cool to be named Wired Magazine's 15 most dangerous people in the world? Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:52:21 You know that I haven't when I was 24 years old. What do you think I did with that? No, no, sir. No, sir. I walked in any room in any bar in the world and make use of that. Yeah. Why did they say that about you? Was it just this?
Starting point is 00:52:40 I mean, you have, with cryptocurrency, I can't figure out where you are really, because you wanted to be on the board of Bitcoin to destroy Bitcoin. Oh, no, sir. Well, I mean, the foundation, you know, I didn't think that Bitcoin needed stewards or institutional representatives. You know, I felt like, why interface with the government, why volunteer anything? You know, they couldn't catch up. Why help? So I love Bitcoin.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Oh, man. Bitcoin is, you know, I started taking Bitcoin in 2012 to help of my project. And that was probably the single best decision I ever made. Shut up. Oh, yeah. I said with Mark Andresen about that same time. He said, Glenn, you should accept Bitcoin. And I was like, yeah, yeah, we should do that.
Starting point is 00:53:26 And I never did. What a fool. Was it even at 300 per coin back then? No, buddy. I was getting them at 9 and 12. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Listen, it was nice, okay?
Starting point is 00:53:40 Now, I, I, I, I went up to a thousand, I cashed out quite a bit, maybe half at the time. Oh, my manufacturer company. But it was still beautiful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And to this day, I have quite a bit. So what do you think the future is? Because Bitcoin became too hot. It just became a trend, a fashion trend.
Starting point is 00:54:02 And people really didn't even understand it, I think. Where do you think it goes from here? Well, this is, it's somewhat cyclical, like the public apprehension of it. So, yeah, I got really overheated to 20,000. But I think we'll see 20,000 again. and honestly, I believe in the monetary economics of Bitcoin. You know, like you teach sound money, I believe that Bitcoin is perhaps the soundest money to have ever been created
Starting point is 00:54:30 on its principle and on technical principle alone. But there's also a beautiful community of people developing around it and all kinds of institutional tie-ins that are just almost in the offing. Look, I think it's here to say, at least in concept, but even I believe that Bitcoin itself is the innovation. It's not the other technologies. It's that we really did create, by an order of magnitude, a more sound money than even hard currencies.
Starting point is 00:54:59 Where do you stand on things like AGI and ASI? Do you think we're going to get there? You know what? I don't know if I know what you mean. AI is artificial intelligence. AGI is artificial general intelligence and A. SI is super intelligence. Got it. Okay. Well, in the computer science problem, I think a general AI is actually like, you know, a fantasy.
Starting point is 00:55:26 But I actually do believe that. I don't believe that AI is a kind of global threat that we hear about all the time. Really? Why? Yeah. Well, I mean, one, I'm not a computer scientist, but what's like my background of philosophy of science and other things, I actually believe it's a more than a difficult problem to create a general intelligence. intelligence. Intelligence is associated with all kinds of things that aren't just raw logics and logic gateways. And, you know, even with these neural networks and stuff, we're seeing interesting effects, but we're not seeing the creation of anything like consciousness, which, you know, requires understanding of mysteries that are beyond, you know, technical understanding.
Starting point is 00:56:07 So, speaking of mysteries beyond understanding, we have played this clip from you probably a thousand times since we've met. Here it is. You know, and whose conception under what paradigm, you know? I'm just resisting. What am I resisting? I don't know. The collectivization of manufacture, the institutionalization of the human psyche. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:56:28 We have a minute left. So, Cody, did you ever figure out what you're resisting, first of all? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, good. Okay. Often we do things right before we have the words for them. what we're doing.
Starting point is 00:56:46 Yes. Cody, I am, I'm thrilled to talk to you and thrilled to see who you're turning into. You're wicked smart. You always have been, but you seem to have been tempered and have a very thoughtful outlook, which is needed at this time. And yet you are still swinging for the fences. And I think it's great. Cody, thank you so much. Thank you, Mr. Beck. You bet. Cody Wilson, founder of Defend, uh, defendant. fence. It's a different kid than five years ago. Big time. Yeah. I like him. He's grown. I like him. I didn't know if I liked him the last time. I know. I like him this time. Back in a minute. Remember that song, Our House in the Middle of the Street? It was like in the 80s. And I remember I was a kid when that came out.
Starting point is 00:57:35 And I used to think that someone had a house like built in the middle of the street. And what a terrible idea that was because a car could crash into it. There's all sorts of terrible things that could happen. You know, if you have a bad real estate agent, who knows. knows, you might get that house. That's how important it is. You don't want the real estate agents going to be like, oh, that's a perfect house. There's nothing going on there. And then you find out they've built it in the middle of the street. Real estate agents I trust.com can take care of more important and complicated issues than just that of my six-year-old mind. Real estate agents I trust is a network of over 1,200 agents from all over America. They know
Starting point is 00:58:06 to advertise. They know how to get results. They know the local community and they know how to make sure that you're updated. If you need to sell a house fast and for the most money, or if you're looking to buy, go to real estate agents I trust.com. You'll be introduced to the best agent in your town. Let these agents earn your business. There's great people. Get moving with real estate agents. itrust.com. It's real estate
Starting point is 00:58:26 agents.itrust.com. So let's talk about the all-important Papa John's controversy, because I mean, is pizza racist? We have to know. With the Papa John's thing, I am
Starting point is 00:58:43 I'm trying to give Papa a reason for saying for saying these things, and I cannot come up with a reason. Here's what happened. He's meeting with his PR firm, and they're going through a, you know, a mock situation and trying to teach him how to avoid future controversy. As you remember, Papa John's was in the news because they jettisoned the NFL because they said, you know, they made it all about politics and not about football. They've really taken a hit.
Starting point is 00:59:27 Some people say that their pizza is really, really crappy, you know, me living with an Italian. I wouldn't know because she would kill me if I ever had a piece of Papa Johns. I love Papa Johns. Do you? Yeah, it's really good. Okay. So here's what he said. He's in a, he's in this meeting and they're role playing with him.
Starting point is 00:59:46 And he says, well, Colonel Sanders called Black's the N word and he never faced any criticism for it. Only he actually used the word. Yeah. Okay. First, first of all, even if you don't use the word, probably not a good, you know, example. Colonel Sanders has been dead for 30 years when he was saying that. you know, Martin Luther King was still saying, hey, what do you think? Can I, can I belly up here at the lunch counter?
Starting point is 01:00:19 No, not a good example. Then he went on and he said, you know, when I was growing up in Indiana, people dragged African Americans from trucks until they died. Yeah. First of all, I don't know if that is true. And if it is, you're living in a different Indiana that I know of. And in what context? in what context would that be appropriate?
Starting point is 01:00:47 If you're discussing the history of racism and why we are where we are and you're trying to make the point of here's how bad it was. And so that's why it's so important that we fix that and don't use these words. Maybe. Okay. Now remember, you're in a PR battle. Okay. So you've been with us when we've done PR prep, right?
Starting point is 01:01:11 So what you do is you have PR people and they just fire relentless questions at you trying to get you to crack or to say the wrong thing. So in what realm of reality would that be used in context in that setting that would be helpful? I don't know, but it's to me it's kind of a strange phenomenon that he's. just explaining something and uses the word. He's not calling anybody that. He's not saying it's appropriate to use that. He just said the word. Is that enough for...
Starting point is 01:01:51 Would you use that word? For them to lose $96 million in value in one day because you said that word. Is it really that... Well, that goes to a different... I wouldn't say the word. No. Yeah, hang on just a second. That goes to a different...
Starting point is 01:02:04 And I want to talk about that part. Okay? However, you wouldn't use that word. I wouldn't use that word. No. Why wouldn't you? It's just unacceptable today. Just unacceptable for white people to use the word.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Right. I think it's unacceptable, honestly, for black people to use it. Well, they don't. But they don't. And that's fine. I can still say, I think you're wrong. It's unacceptable. It's a horrible word.
Starting point is 01:02:32 I wouldn't use that word. I have an uncomfortable time using that word in a historic, for instance, reading Tom Sawyer or Huckleberry Finn. Yeah. Have a really hard time using that, but that isn't in a historic context. If you're just saying that and you're behind closed doors, doesn't that kind of tell you a little bit about who that person is? At least, not even saying that they're racist, just that they're completely disconnected from reality. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:03:08 Okay. Maybe. Let me add this to it because this answers your second question. We're not talking about you. We're talking about, well, I mean, in some ways, it would happen to you. We're talking about a guy who's running a major company. Yeah. That is having real issues. And if you are in that meeting and he's just spouting off like this, you're like, oh, dear, God, this guy just doesn't get it.
Starting point is 01:03:37 you have a responsibility to shareholders. This guy is out of touch with what we need to do as a company, whether you agree with him or not. And I don't because I can't figure out the context. Now, maybe he could explain that. But don't you have, I mean, he shouldn't be using that language just because he's the CEO of a giant corporation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:07 And I think he'll, they've already distanced themselves from him leading up to this. And this will, I think just. No, he's done. He's done. He's done. No, he's done now. And he's probably done with commercials with Peyton Manning and all of that stuff is probably going to go away now. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:22 I mean, it's, to me, it just shows his judgment. Yeah. If the guy's judgment is this bad, he shouldn't be running a company. Where else is his? I mean, under him, they have lost a lot of money. Uh, you know. Well, their shares are down. 13% so far this year while dominoes is up 48.5%.
Starting point is 01:04:41 And dominoes, I got to tell you something. If I went on a desert island with my Italian wife and the only food was Papa Johns or dominoes, she couldn't make anything herself, it would never be dominoes, never be dominoes. I don't even know. Yeah, I've never even had Papa Johns that I know of. I don't think Tanya would ever do Papa Johns, but I know for a fact.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Wouldn't be Domino's. Although, you know, I've tasted it since they did the big change. Really? Yeah. You know, they did one of the most successful, hey, we used to suck and we're better now campaigns I've ever seen. And I think it's really true. They are better than they used to be.
Starting point is 01:05:26 I'm still not a huge. Domino's fan or a client very often. Of the two, I, we always go Papa John's before Domino's. But it's better than it was. So if it's better pizza, if Domina, or if Papa Johns is better pizza, what the hell are they doing? Yeah. What are they doing wrong? And that would go to the CEO.
Starting point is 01:05:46 It would. And all the negative publicity that's come to him. Yeah. This is just not good. It's not good. Just not good. There was another thing that I wanted to talk about. And that was the Rock.
Starting point is 01:06:02 He was on last night on Colbert. Listen to this. People have talked to you about whether you would run for political office yourself because People love a winner. You seem like a winner. You exude great confidence Do you do actually take that possibility seriously? I absolutely do yes. Yes, I do. I do Yes Yes, yes your model in that regard. Well, by the way, just to put it in context is something happened on the Washington Post. They had posted a story, they'd written a story and said,
Starting point is 01:06:39 the gist of it was, if I were to run, I could have a legitimate shot at winning. It kind of picked up the steam. And when it picked up steam, a lot of people, the American public, kind of thought, actually, that's a great idea. So when that started picking up, of course, when I'm asked, yes, I have incredible respect for our American people and our country. So I said, yes, I would consider it. And of course I would. But at the same time, Stephen, look, I, I, I, I, I, I'm not delusional at all. Like, I feel like I, you know what it is? I need that thing.
Starting point is 01:07:10 Oh, experience. Yes. So if that were to happen in a 2024, 2028, I would have to go to work and get some experience. Sure. What does that mean? Interesting. Every show, every movie I have seen him in, I just look at my family right before he go, he's running. He's running.
Starting point is 01:07:33 Look at the roles he's playing. He's saving. you know, people from everything. He's becoming this, this action hero that is really funny and yet strangely relatable looking the way he does. He's still strangely kind of relatable. You like him. He's the perfect candidate.
Starting point is 01:07:52 He's the perfect candidate. You know, if we're looking for candidates that are just celebrities without any experience. That leads me to believe, and I've heard before, that he's Republican. Because he didn't mention. 2020, which means he's not considering running against Trump. Well, he said 2028, too. He said, I have to have experience. I have to get a job and have experience.
Starting point is 01:08:15 But it's interesting, 2020 was not even, to me, that leads me to believe. Maybe he's a little more conservative than Hollywood would like. And a lot of those people that are cheering in Colbert's audience wouldn't be cheering if they hear his policies. Well, let's keep that to ourself if he is. That's true. You know what I mean? Keep that on our inside voice.
Starting point is 01:08:38 The minute he starts talking policies. It's over for him in Hollywood. I think that's why Colbert, did you notice the question he didn't answer? Who's your role model? Yeah. So would it be Schwarzenegger? Would it be Ronald Reagan? Hopefully.
Starting point is 01:08:56 Yeah, hopefully. But that's what he asked. Who's your role model? Well, there's only been two that have made that jump. Stephen. Mm-hmm. Wouldn't it be interesting if Trump wins reelection and then Dwayne Johnson wins in 2024, that just creates a trend of celebrities only that you probably never break.
Starting point is 01:09:23 Never break it. You got Tom Hanks in 28? Or Tom Hanks 24. Yeah. Rock or Tom Hanks. Right. It's crazy. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:09:34 And you know who predicted this? Stephen King. Really? Yeah. Look in his book, The Running Man. In the book, The Running Man, they are dispensing justice on television. It's a game. Right.
Starting point is 01:09:51 And everything's been gamified. And the president was one of the game show hosts. Oh, wow. Yeah, he's a former game show host. And now it's just all about celebrity. By the way, speaking of this, did you see this? Did you see that, is it Kim Kardashian? I think it was Kim Kardashian,
Starting point is 01:10:09 is on the road to being the youngest ever. That's Kylie, Kylie Jenner. The youngest ever billionaire. Yeah. She has made $900 million, and she's 20. That's amazing. Where does most of that come from? I didn't read the article.
Starting point is 01:10:30 I just saw the headline. Is it from, does she have like a clothing line? Where is that coming from? Yeah, she makes makeup, right? Yeah, she makes cosmetics. Wow. Well, she doesn't make them. I'm sure she, she probably doesn't even wear them.
Starting point is 01:10:45 But she sells it. She's 20. 20. $900 million. Remember when a billion dollars used to mean something? Let me tell you about Goldline. Goldline has introduced a brand new product created by the Royal Canadian mint, it is the four-nines, 99.999 pure silver. And it's called the maple flex bar. And it's
Starting point is 01:11:19 comprised of 19 individual bars that make up two ounces of silver. Now, what this is, is it makes this easy for you, in case things ever really go to hell in a handbasket, it makes it easy for you to break off smaller bullion coins and keep the bar whole when you don't need it. it as an investment bar. So it's perfect for barter situations in a crisis. Now, it has 10, 1.20th of an ounce bars. It has 5.1.10 ounce bars for quarter ounce bars. Each bar is legal tender.
Starting point is 01:11:52 It's guaranteed for its weight and purity by the Canadian mint. And the Royal Canadian Mint is stamped on. I mean, look, they basically, when you break them apart, it looks like they're coins. But they're pure silver. So if things ever go crazy, you have 19 legal tender. coins of silver. Mapleflex. It can be included in your precious metals IRA due to the fineness. It also comes with all of the features and benefits offered by Goldline free shipping, same price on credit card, check or bank wire. Also qualifying orders can take advantage of the Goldline

Starting point is 01:12:52 After the broadcast today, we're getting a lot of questions in on cryptocurrencies, and I'm going to be talking a little bit about that today right after the show on Facebook Live. Join me right after this radio show. So about an hour and five minutes, if you are on real time with us, you can join us there. I'm going to answer some of the questions from the audience
Starting point is 01:13:16 and give you some information that I think you're going to want to have. If you're interested in cryptocurrencies, that is happening today right after hour three on Facebook live. Also today on my television show at 5, we're just taking open questions and open lines on the show. So it's just me and you on the telephone. and you can call in advance. Is this the radio number is the number that you would call?
Starting point is 01:13:44 Yeah, so it would be 8 at 8-8-727-B-E-C-K. That is going to happen at 5 p.m. Eastern live, and I'm not sure if it's also on Facebook, but I know it's on the Blaze TV, but I think you might want to check Facebook Live. We might also take some Facebook questions today and do it there, but I'd love to talk to you at 8-8-7-27. B-E-C-K. You should probably call about 15 minutes early just to be able to get in because we're going to start taking phone calls right at the top of the program. 5 p.m. Eastern on the Glym. program on the Blaze TV.
Starting point is 01:14:23 By the way, we're talking about Papa John's founder, John Schnatter, who while trying to prevent some sort of PR snafu created a massive PR snafu. He did resign as chairman. So that's what I thought. It's been done already. Bye. I mean, what were you thinking? I probably wasn't. Yeah. And does nobody in the room have a confidentiality agreement?
Starting point is 01:14:51 I mean, think of that. Yeah. Here's, they're brainstorming on how to not be, you know, you're in a session trying to see how to handle the press. And you screw up. And somebody leaves the room and calls the press and says, boy, This is really bad. That's where we are right now. Well,
Starting point is 01:15:10 it's just where we are. Back. Okay. I just want you to just, just take a guess, just a guess, wild guess. I'm not going to hold you to it,
Starting point is 01:15:21 but take a guess on what NARAL, the pro-choice America group, would think about the potential Supreme Court justice of Brett Kavanaugh. Show of hands. How many things? The review is going to be positive. Right? Nobody.
Starting point is 01:15:37 Thanks to Twitter, we can know this instantly. Let me give you this one. We'll be damned if we're going to let five men, including some frat boy named Brett, strip us of our hardworking bodily autonomy and reproductive rights. Just so you know damned and men are both in all caps. For one, Roe versus Wade was also decided by damned men. I just want to throw that out. Frat boy.
Starting point is 01:16:08 Frat boy named Brett. I he doesn't strike me as a frat boy I but maybe it's maybe this is just trolling 101 don't feed the trolls just mentioning this story runs the risk of giving them an exposure but the hypocrisy is just it's fun it's just fun great argument against Kavanaugh really is and I'm not sure if they're going to use that uh you know during the upcoming confirmation here's another one too that they might want to consider using this one comes from late-night comedian Stephen Colbert. As you would expect, he had this to say. Now, I don't know much about Kavanaugh, but I'm skeptical because his name is Brett. That sounds less like a Supreme Court Justice and more like a waiter at Ruby Tuesdays. Hey, everybody, I'm Brett. I'll be your Supreme Court Justice tonight. Before you sit down, let me just clear away these rights for you.
Starting point is 01:17:08 That's funny. That's funny. That's funny. So let's end with another piece of comedy gold here. A reference to a name that is actually ridiculous. Colbert, that's a French name, is it not? It's a French name just to get the cultural elites on my side, Bill. I'm as Irish as you. I'm a Tormey.
Starting point is 01:17:29 I'm an O'Neill. I'm a tuck. I'm a Tuck. I'm a Fee. I'm a Connolly. I could sit toe to toe at a potato table with anybody. I talked to your third grade teacher, Ms. Crabtree. She said back then, you were little Steve. Colbert in South Carolina. I was Steve Colbert. But you, once you got here to Manhattan from South Carolina, changed from little Steve Colbert to Stephen Colbert.
Starting point is 01:17:54 I just wanted to point that out, Steve. Other people can make fun of names, too. It's Thursday, July 12th. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. We should start calling him, Mr. Colbert. Welcome to the program. I don't know what happened to Pierce Morgan, but Pierce Morgan came to America and tried to lecture us on how bad we are, then went back to Great Britain
Starting point is 01:18:30 and is now lecturing them on all of the good things, including, you ready for this one? Donald Trump. Listen to this from Pierce Morgan in England. Farmer deporting 3 million people, unconscionable. Yes. I just spit up many fans. Yes, I did.
Starting point is 01:18:46 And that's why I also... Where was your protest march against that when he came to the country? And that's why I also protest. And that's why I also protest. Where was your protest march against Obama? In this country as well. You do not have to go out and march against everything. It's double standards.
Starting point is 01:19:00 In order to make a point about one thing. No, if you find them both uncomfortable and it's the same issue, you have to mark twice, don't you? I would actually encourage you to maybe check out some of the other work that I've done where I've been intensely to do it. Tell you what I'd do, Ash, I'd go and check out some basis. facts about your hero Obama. He's not my heroic. I'm a communist, you idiot.
Starting point is 01:19:19 You didn't plan on your protest against him. So is Obama, by the way, you idiot. They were both communists, I guess. The guest and the president. At least a Marxist. Well, amazing. Well, that you have more evidence than anything that MSNBC is saying about Donald Trump now.
Starting point is 01:19:37 It's for sure. Of being a sleeper cell for... Well, just his parents, his mentor, his college professor. just everybody around him. Jeremiah Wright, his friends, he appointed communists and his administration. So it was no big deal. He believes in redistribution of wealth. No big deal.
Starting point is 01:19:57 Right. It's not. It's not. There's no evidence of any of that. I think it's fascinating, though. Every single person I can think of who's been on the apprentice defends Donald Trump to death. So Penn's not a believer.
Starting point is 01:20:13 No. Okay. All right. So there's one. Yeah. There's one. But Pierce Morgan was on the apprentice, and he is a staunch defender of Trump. It's amazing.
Starting point is 01:20:24 He wants to have this guest, whose name is Sclar, I think, go do some basic homework on her hero Obama. Didn't we believe Obama was Pierce Morgan hero during the whole Obama administration? Yeah. And what he's saying is incredible. What he's saying is you have to be consistent. Yeah. If you cared about this and you think this is an abomination, where were you then? Right.
Starting point is 01:20:51 And he's right. Exactly right. Especially in Great Britain. You're protesting in Great Britain what's happening on our border when you don't know a thing about it? Well, she's a communist. Yeah, that's true. I mean, she's, you know, she is an admitted communist and what do communists? Communists need anything they can have to stop the United States of America.
Starting point is 01:21:09 You've got to stop the engine of America. And that didn't apply to Obama. because he was like-minded. They didn't have to stop him. He was what? Like-minded. Was he a moon baby? No, he was not.
Starting point is 01:21:22 Yeah, we found out earlier on this program, and I think it is, I think it is important for you to, to let MSNBC know. And Chris Hayes, he had a guest on from the New Yorker magazine who made it very clear that this isn't, this isn't probably true. but we should check into the fact that Donald Trump might be a sleeper agent for the former Soviet Union. Okay. It sounds insane. I just want to say it really does. The idea that he went, he goes to Moscow in 87, is cultivated as a Russian intelligence opposite asset and is this sort of like sleeper cell for decades sounds nuts. It sounds like the stuff of conspiracy theories. Why are you not insane?
Starting point is 01:22:12 So that's a great question, Chris. I get that all the time. So first of all, the piece acknowledges that that is probably not true, but it might be. And one of the reasons I wrote this is you need to take seriously some of these low probability high impact scenarios. You know, before the election, sort of everyone heard that Hillary Clinton had about an 80% chance of winning. So they, he's saying that it's probably not true, but it might be. So we exposed today that, and I think you need to let Chris Hayes know this, just, you know, tweet MSNBC, Chris Hayes, and let him know that, you know, we believe low probability, but high impact, that Donald Trump is a moon baby. And that he was brought back on Apollo 11.
Starting point is 01:23:04 I mean, can you prove that it didn't happen? No. Yeah, you never saw anything in the news about Donald Trump before. Or 1969. No way. And then all of a sudden, 10, 15 years later, he's Donald Trump and everybody knows his name. He brought him back from the moon. They brought him back from the moon.
Starting point is 01:23:19 He's a moon baby. Why do you think he's asking for the space patrol and the space force? Because he needs to get back to the moon. Now, again, that's probably not true. But it might be. And if it is, it's really high impact. Yeah. Really high impact.
Starting point is 01:23:35 Very high impact. Very high impact. They have no credibility. at all. Have you seen that Stormy Daniels is, she was arrested? What was it last night? Yeah. Yeah. Apparently, there was some touching going on. Uh, well, strip teas in in Columbus Ohio? Was it touching or was it, uh, slapping? I think she was slapping people around. Yeah, with her snubage.
Starting point is 01:23:58 Yeah, she was she, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, boob slapping. And she was, you weren't slapping her. She was, uh, slapping your face with hers. And, um, it's classy. I mean, you know, West Hollywood. I mean, you did the right thing by giving her the key to the city. You know, I don't think that.
Starting point is 01:24:19 You have every right to say. You know, Donald Trump is just such a disgrace for men and how he treats women. And they give the key to the city of the woman who is slapping men with her breasts. No, I think that's why. Do you find that inconsistent? A little bit. What? A little bit.
Starting point is 01:24:41 Huh. A little bit. But she may also be a plant, a sleeper cell. I mean, is it likely? No. Right. Think of the high impact involved. And there's a lot of impact there.
Starting point is 01:24:56 She was showing it last night. Now, she could have killed somebody with those things. I think she was actually born in the caves of the Grand Teton's. And she is from the Jackson Hole area. And she's now here. And she's going to slap people silly until they appoint her the queen of the Grand Teton's. Again, probably not true.
Starting point is 01:25:23 Probably not true. Worth exploring, though, because of its high impact possibility. Well, there's something else on MSNBC that is worth exploring, and that's from Katie Tour. And Katie Tour had an interesting look at the Constitution, and I want you to hear it. Do you think it's appropriate to continue to take such a strict, originalist view of the Constitution, given its 2018 and not 1776? well I don't know that Americans have become more progressive on everything certainly the
Starting point is 01:25:55 times have changed since 1776 but stop stop stop stop and given the fact that the Constitution hadn't even been written yet yeah 1776 that was kind of important that's weird isn't it wouldn't be written for another 13 years yeah so so help me out uh pat um the freedom of speech is it any different than it was back then freedom of speech today yeah different than it was then. Yeah. A little bit different. How?
Starting point is 01:26:26 It was probably more radical then than it is now. Yeah, that is absolutely true. Yeah. But is it, but is it, is there anything that's changed since 1789 that, besides the technology. The forms of communication. Yeah. The what? The form of communication.
Starting point is 01:26:47 We have different ways. It's made it easier for people. to speak, which makes it easier for people in power to say, shut up, don't speak, which would actually take the First Amendment and make it more important than it was maybe at even 1789. No doubt about it. I think we could do this all the way. And by the way, if you want to change the Constitution, change it. Change it.
Starting point is 01:27:11 Yeah, there's mechanisms to do that. Yeah. Set up within the Constitution itself. No, shut up. Pretty amazing. How can that happen? Amazing. What?
Starting point is 01:27:18 Well, you could do a convention for one thing. You could do a constitutional convention. You could do a convention. We're actually for that. Yes, we are. Yeah. There's another thing, too, where you just vote on an amendment. Yes.
Starting point is 01:27:30 You can do that. Uh-huh. And that changes. In fact, we've done that a lot. Well, we started with 10 amendments. There's now 27. Yeah. So, um, yes.
Starting point is 01:27:43 So we've done it 26 times. You can do that. This just shows that they are only interested in legislating from the bench. That's all they want to do. Yeah. And here's proof positive. We're going to take a break. I want to show you, we went back into the archives,
Starting point is 01:28:05 and we looked for the questions and what they said about Robert Bork. He was right, the most extreme ever, correct? Yes. He was going to cause all kinds of disasters in this. entry. Wait until you hear this. Then I think everyone will agree that Ginsburg is the most, let's just call her what she would claim, progressive on the bench, meaning that she wants to move things forward. We know that she doesn't use the American constitution. She looks to South Africa and Canada to inform her decisions. That's not constitutional. But she rules
Starting point is 01:28:47 from the bench and everyone knows she doesn't side with conservatives. Let me show you the difference on how they both were approached by the press in the time machine here in just a second. Amazing.
Starting point is 01:29:04 And please do not spread it around because it's probably not true but it might be. And if Donald Trump turns out to be a moon baby, imagine the impact imagine the impact
Starting point is 01:29:21 who we tell you about Simply Safe Simply Safe obsesses over the details the example that I've been giving you this week is the typical glass break sensor I didn't know this
Starting point is 01:29:36 but it only makes sense how do you know that how does the sensor know that you just haven't dropped a plate or a glass because it It sounds the same, doesn't it? Well, that's the problem with most of the sensors. It sounds even a baby cry can trip most of these things off.
Starting point is 01:29:56 Simply say, didn't like that, didn't want that. So they built a glass break test facility, and they ran over 10,000 live glass break simulations. That refined it. So when it heard a glass break, it knew, oh, that's a glass in the sink or a glass on the floor or plate and that's a window pane being broken. That's the kind of level of security and detail that they go to. Simplysafebeck.com. Go there now.
Starting point is 01:30:28 You will own the system and the 24-7 monitoring is 15 bucks a month. Save 10% on your home security system now if you go to SimplySafebec.com. That's simplysafebeck.com. Welcome to the program. All right. I want to start with Bork. Now, Robert Bork is a guy I remember, you know, this is 1988. And so I'm 24 years old.
Starting point is 01:30:58 And I remember I'm driving across country because I'm going to my job in Phoenix, Arizona. And I'm driving from Ohio to Phoenix. And the Bork hearings are on. And I listen to it all week as I'm driving. And I just remember thinking, this is incredible. Listen to how Ted Kennedy talked about Bork before the hearing even started. See if it sounds familiar. Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back alley abortions. Blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters. Rogue police could break down citizens' doors and midnight raids.
Starting point is 01:31:38 And school children could not be taught about evolution. Writers and artists would be censured at the whim of government. and the doors of the federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is and is often the only protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy. America is a better and freer nation than Robert Bork thinks. Yet in the current delicate balance of the Supreme Court, his rigid ideology will tip the scales of justice against the kind of country America is and ought to be. The damage that President Reagan will do through this nomination, if it is not rejected by the Senate, could live on far beyond the end of his presidential term.
Starting point is 01:32:23 President Reagan is still our president, but he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Aran Gate, reach into the muck of Watergate, and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and on the next generation of Americans. No justice would be better than this injustice. Okay. All right. So it's an injustice. Have we heard all of that? Again, they use the same speech every
Starting point is 01:32:50 time. Now, they have up the ante a little bit. Now, you know, millions of people are going to die. It's not just that he's going to reach beyond the term. Millions are going to die. And I'll give you the evidence of that here in just a second. When Bork is being
Starting point is 01:33:06 questioned, he's being questioned by great. senator now from the south and listen to him. Not enough time. You have to listen to how he's questioned. And then we'll compare and contrast probably the most radical judicial appointment, maybe of all time. Ginsburg. I didn't remember the Ginsburg trial.
Starting point is 01:33:35 Do you remember that? Her hearings? No. Not really. Now, how is that possible? First of all, the Republicans didn't make a big deal out of her. Yes. There was no, wait until you here.
Starting point is 01:33:48 Wait until you hear how Ginsburg was handled. There's an issue. There's a real issue here between the two. It doesn't get any more left-wing radical than Ruth Bader Ginsburg. No, she's the hero. I don't even believe in using a U.S. Constitution as a basis for her judgments. Correct. That's grounds for impeachment right there.
Starting point is 01:34:10 of a Supreme Court justice. Well, not if you're not if you're progressive because you want the court, just the reason why the FDR wanted the court. He wanted the court packed with a bunch of people who had his opinion that would allow the government to do whatever it is it had to do to write the wrongs of the past, which is not what the government is supposed to do. The government, the government was established to protect the rights of all. That's what it's about. And that's what the Constitution and the Bill of Rights actually protects. and those guardians, those nine men and women, are supposed to stand as sentinels at those gates and not let anything harm those rights for anybody. I'll show you what they did with Ginsburg.
Starting point is 01:34:58 We'll get a little bit more of bork and then I'll show you what they're doing now with Kavanaugh when we come back. So I invest in cryptocurrencies a little bit. You know, I think it's a really interesting market. Why not put a little bit of money in it? and maybe it's going to turn up by a thousand percent, two thousand percent. We've seen those gains in the past. But, I mean, there's so many complicated parts of this. There's a bunch of cryptocurrencies.

Starting point is 01:37:16 and Robert Bork was made into a monster, a monster, who was going to re-segregate, and we were going to have lunch counters, and, you know, women would be dying, and it's horrible, horrible. Robert Bork's America. Now let me show you how, Ginsburg was treated.
Starting point is 01:37:37 Listen to this. Clara. Well, Clara, you deserve it award so far today. Sure does. And you know, people think I'm very serious, sober as a judge. And so when I had all these people taking photographs of me in the White House, people were trying to get me to
Starting point is 01:37:53 smile, they said, think of Clara. Clara. Look at Clara smiling. And then my grandson, Paul Spara. And I must tell you, that in preparation for these hearings, I have read briefing books, opinion books, law reviews,
Starting point is 01:38:11 but there is no book in the world that means as much to me as this one. This is Paul's book. It says, My grandma is a very, very special by Paul Sparrow. And I thank you, Paul, for this one beautiful book. Adorable.
Starting point is 01:38:31 She's opening it up. Oh, isn't that cute? Look at that. She's showing, there's some pictures inside. It's precious. Oh, that's so cute.
Starting point is 01:38:38 The pictures are beautiful and you don't need a publisher. This is a... Oh. And he ends with a map of the USA. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. He just said he hopes your teacher is listening to this. That is great.
Starting point is 01:38:56 And Joe's just enjoying that hearing. Joe Biden just thought he was having a good time. So now you have to ask yourself, Have you ever heard anybody's confirmation hearing? I mean, especially if they are content. I mean, Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the most liberal, unconstitutional justice we have ever had. And keep this in mind. At the time, everybody knew how liberal she was.
Starting point is 01:39:23 Everybody knew how progressive. She was the director of the ACLU's Women's Rights Project. Okay. So how did this very extreme woman get? this treatment, where were the Republicans? Well, one of them was recommending to Bill Clinton that he not consider
Starting point is 01:39:41 Bruce Babbitt for U.S. Supreme Court justice. Really? Yeah, Bruce Babbitt, too extreme. Too extreme. He thought, hey, what about Stephen Breyer or Ruth Bader Ginsburg? Oh. He was a great jurist.
Starting point is 01:39:57 And while liberal, very honest and very clear thinking. Now, who was this this this uh this uh republican it was a senator named orine hattich oh no or in hatch hitch thank you little known uh little known senator head of the judiciary committee back then right and uh republican he's the guy who suggested ruth bair Ginsburg it will not be a problem to get her through amazing and it wasn't it wasn't they confirmed her nine to three.
Starting point is 01:40:35 96 to 3. Think of that. If Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed, you know it's going to be, oh, I don't know, 53, 47-ish, maybe 52-48, maybe 50-50 and and Pence has to decide? I don't know. Can he even get received confirmation?
Starting point is 01:41:04 I don't know. At this point, who knows? But he's an extremist, which... Oh, millions of women could die, we were told. No, no, no. Millions of women. No, no, can I... I mean, don't just say that.
Starting point is 01:41:18 Don't just say that and throw that out there. Let me, please, let me show you what has come from Yale. Okay. Now, he's a former Yale guy. Okay. Yeah, so I think the school was okay with him, right? We write today as Yale law students, alumni, and educators, ashamed of our alma mater. Within an hour of Donald Trump's announcement that he would nominate Brett Kavanaugh, YLS 90 to the Supreme Court,
Starting point is 01:41:49 the law school published a press release boasting of the alumnus accomplishment. Is there anything more important to Yale Law School than its proximity to power and prestige? Judge Kavanaugh's nomination presents an emergency. for democratic life, for our safety, for our freedom, and for the future of our country. Good gosh. His nomination is not an interesting intellectual exercise to be debated among classmates or scholars and seminar. Support for Judge Kavanaugh is not a political.
Starting point is 01:42:25 Since his campaign launched, Trump has repeatedly promised to appoint justices that would overturn Roe versus Wade. without overturning that decision would endanger the lives of countless people who need or may need abortions, including many who signed this letter. The judge employed similar spurious reasoning in 2015 dissents against arguing that the ACA's contraceptive mandate violated the rights of religious organizations, even though those organizations were granted an accommodation that allowed them to opt out of providing contraceptive coverage. Judge Kavanaugh would also rubber stamp for President Trump's fraud and abuse. As part of his assault on the administrative state, based not in law as he claims, but on policy preference, Judge Kavanaugh has undermined attempts to protect the environment and regulate predatory lenders and for-profit colleges.
Starting point is 01:43:23 Judge Kavanaugh has consistently protected the interest of powerful institutions and disregarded the right. of the vulnerable. Now is the time for moral courage, for which Yale Law School comes at so little cost. Perhaps you as an institution and as individuals will benefit less from Judge Kavanaugh's ascendant power if you withhold your support. Perhaps Judge Kavanaugh will be less likely to hire your favorite students. But people will die if he is confirmed. We hope you agree your sacrifice would be.
Starting point is 01:43:59 worth it. Please use your authority and platform to expose the stakes of this moment and the threat that Judge Kavanaugh poses. Well, I don't think the Yale students would far enough. Terry McCallough, the governor, former governor of Virginia, said
Starting point is 01:44:15 Kavanaugh will threaten the lives of millions of Americans for decades. Well, so of course people are going to die. Millions of people are going to die. That's because he has one of the gemstones. He has one of the power stones. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:29 We're not sure which one though, right? That hasn't been confirmed yet. I think he has the time stone. I thought it was the soul stone. No, I think it's the time stone because he's going to turn back time. You know, people will be sitting at lunch counters that are segregated. In fact, I think we go further back. I think we go back to slavery.
Starting point is 01:44:46 I think he brings back slavery. Well, if he has the time stone. Now, I don't know if he has the martinizing stone. Is that the one where your clothes get done in one hour? Yes, it is. But you can use it any way you want. You can use it any way you want. Yes.
Starting point is 01:45:00 Wow. It's been used, but inevitably. Thank goodness. Up until now. Up until now, it's an hour and your clothes of dry clean. Okay. But it's, you know, in the hands of the wrong steward like Kavanaugh. Could martinizing take even longer than an hour?
Starting point is 01:45:15 Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. No. Oh, yeah. But same day still, though, right? Well, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:45:24 But you're going to also, it's the abortion stone because you'll have all those hangers. that should have clothes on them. Oh my gosh. But they won't because that's not what you're using them for. Exactly right. Oh, boy. So all of your clothes. Millions are going to die.
Starting point is 01:45:39 All of your clothes will not be ready in an hour. Okay. Okay. They won't come on a hanger because they're going to be using the hangers for other things. Okay. What if we have a three-day waiting period on purchasing hangers? Would that save lives? Well, I don't know if it would save millions,
Starting point is 01:45:57 but if we could just save millions. but if we could just save one, it's worth it. It's worth it. Ask yourself. Why don't we ban all hangers? Mm-hmm. Because if we can just ban all hangers,
Starting point is 01:46:10 you know, nobody's going to use anything else. And furthermore, I say we block off all back alleys. You can't have back alleys and you can't drive down them. You can't go to a back alley. Maybe we eliminate back alleys completely. and then the three-day waiting.
Starting point is 01:46:29 How about we do this? We move, because eliminating all back alleys is ridiculous. I mean, how are you going to do that? You're going to block all these back alleys? Of course not. How about if you move the entrance to every building into the back alley, so the back alley becomes the front of the building? Then what do you do with the front of the building?
Starting point is 01:46:48 Front of the building is just that, well, that's just a street. That's not an alley. Okay. Right. So you're not going to have an abortion just out on the street. That's where people die because they have cancer. sir. So everybody must go around to the back alley and enter that way. Yes. And then that way, nobody can use it as a back alley entrance. Right. That way, well, that way you're not having back alley abortions because the pedestrian traffic would be. Too many people seeing it. Too many people seeing it. So you move the entrance to the back alley, but you recognize that the front of the building is now in the back alley, but the old front of the building is out on an open street where if you don't have health insurance, that's where you go to die. which is exactly what Republicans want you to do.
Starting point is 01:47:30 They want you to die in the street. Of course. We all know that. So I think we've just solved another. I think we've just solved for Kavanaugh. And you're welcome. You could vote for Kavanaugh and just to move your entrance to the alley. And I think we're all set.
Starting point is 01:47:46 You know, that makes almost as much sense as the kind of stuff that they talk about. It does. It makes more sense than the stuff they talk about. And it actually kind of worked. in there a little because it makes the front of the building also a killing place. All right, let me tell you about Mercury Real Estate.

By the way, have you heard about the that Egypt found a black granite sarcophagus. It's in a tomb that dates back to about 323 BC. It's the largest discovery of its kind in that area. Nobody knows what is in it. They don't know who it is. It's just this big black sarcophagus.
Starting point is 01:50:50 Now, the debate is, should Egypt open it? Of course. Right? Yeah. Obviously, you're going to. open it. Right. You can't have a big black box that you find in the middle of nowhere and go, all right, whatever you do, don't open that. That's, that's you to know from 2,300 years ago. You have to open it. Absolutely. I would want Tom Cruise and the Rock and Brendan Frazier there
Starting point is 01:51:16 where I open it, but, and I don't want to be anywhere near it. And I'm not going to be on the cargo plane that is transporting it. I'm just telling you that. But because that could be dangerous. We saw what happened in the documentary. The mummy. There was another one. Indiana Jones. Oh, Indiana Jones. When they opened up that box, all the heck broke loose. Yeah. And people died. Yeah. So don't look in it. You can open it, but just don't look at it. Don't look at it. And they're right. So that'll be, that'll be interesting.
Starting point is 01:51:48 But yeah, there's no question there. I would. Of course I would open that. Absolutely. People are saying, I don't want to open it because rich people will just get the money from it. Oh, brother. Shut up. Shut up. When they opened King Tuts tomb, they all went to the rich people. No, it didn't.
Starting point is 01:52:05 It went to Egypt. It's in the museum in Cairo. It went to Egypt. Yeah, but rich people own the museum. And it helped, the song helped Steve Martin get rich. Wow. That may have been the curse. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:24 That may have been the curse of the mummy, but I'm, uh, I'm not sure. Okay. Join me tonight, 5 o'clock only on the Blaze TV. And up next is the Pat Gray Radio Roundup. How are the singing Cowboys yesterday? They were pretty good. They were good.
