First, let me tell you about our sponsor. Home title lock. We got a crash, of course, in home title lock and home title theft a couple of years ago where they showed an FBI agent basically like, here's your title. And they showed us a picture of it.
Starting point is 00:00:44 And it was like, that's my title. How did you get it? They just showed you how easy it is to get. And if they want to steal your home and get all your equity, they can do it easily. And, you know, they're actually, they have some morals. They want to do things that are legal.

Starting point is 00:01:31 Entertainment and program. Well, listening to the news today, Joe Biden may be proof that he showed up at all last night, may be proof that Jesus has returned and visited the earth because I think Stephanopoulos treated him like Jesus. And, of course, Savannah Guthrie, Oh, she was so fair and balanced. There was no personal agenda there, no seethinger, no clenched teeth while she was asking questions from this guy, Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:02:38 It was quite interesting. We're going to give you the full review and also my tweet storm last night about Ben Sass and what he had to say about Donald Trump, that is coming as well in six. 60 seconds. This is the Glenn Beck program. Hello, America. It's Friday. All right, let me tell you about RACOD. You know, when I listen to anything with wireless earbuds,
Starting point is 00:03:09 music podcasts, whatever, I like to have crystal clear sound. Jeez, I think I have to get a hearing aid. I have to go. I actually have to go to the, my wife was like, uh, yeah. Because the last time I went, they said, you've worn earphones your whole time, your whole life. and I said, yeah. And they said,
Starting point is 00:03:27 do you ever remember being in places or have you ever worn them so long that your ears ring? And I said, yeah, yeah, a lot. They said, it heals when you're young. The damage doesn't come until you're in your 40s and 50s. That's when it shows up.
Starting point is 00:03:40 She said, you've damaged your ears starting in 20. And I was like, oh, that's, that's, and I'm actually enjoying it because my wife says stuff to me, I can't hear anything. Can't hear anything. Anyway, so when I hear things, I need really great earphones.
Starting point is 00:04:04 I want them to be comfortable. I want them to stay in, you know. I want them to not have to be, oh, I don't know, something that I add to my mortgage payment. And I want something, honestly, that my kids want to steal, but it's just so darn convenient for me to keep in my pocket that they don't know where to steal them from. Racon Wireless earbuds.

Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah, that's not the name of the show, nor do I have an orchestra. You do have cowboys, so I take it. You have a band, though. No. No. Well, I saw a big fat tuba sitting in there the other day. No, no tubas. Was that Jeffy? That was Jeffie? That was no. Okay. All right. All right. So anyway, I, I, I, when you watch what happened and then you listen to the report the next day, I swear to you they were watching something else. Oh, absolutely. I mean, yeah. And isn't it interesting that they just replaced the Trump Biden debate with Trump Guthrie? Oh, yeah. That's just amazing.
Starting point is 00:06:01 She's debating the president. First 20 minutes. This is supposed to be a town hall. Yeah. And you notice that they asked Joe Biden all of these questions about Donald Trump. Not a single question about the news that broke this week on Hunter Biden. Nope. Not a single question about all the documents that have come out.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Unconscionable. All the documents that have come out in the last four weeks. Not a single question. Are you guys with me on this? I actually don't. have a problem with Savannah Guthrie going after the president like that, if Biden also gets that judgment. I agree.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I don't mind, I don't necessarily mind tough questions and them going back and even correcting it in time. Tim Russert was the best. But you thought he hated that guy. And then he turned to the other guy. And you were like, I think he hates him too. It was balanced. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:52 It was balanced. The tough questions on each side. And Trump handled her, I thought, very easily when when she was coming after. I mean, was it? No, no, he didn't. No. He didn't. No, he didn't.
Starting point is 00:07:02 No, I listened to NPR and the New York Times today. Oh, no. It showed his ugly side. He showed his ugly side again. Oh, yeah. She didn't show any ugliness at all. No, she, according to CNN's Brian Stelter, it's the work of her career. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:21 It's believable. There is, there's this is lack of effort at this point to even attempt for journalists to to remain fair. They're not even trying to hide it anymore. Oh, no. There's two weeks left. They just got to get this job done. Once they get him out of office,
Starting point is 00:07:35 they can try to fake that they're journalists again. And you know what? Even if somebody thought I should be fair, I should ask him questions about Joe Biden's son. Okay? Because that's a big news. Even if they thought they should be fair, they never would.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Because they know they'd return to the newsroom and they would be an outcast. Yeah. And they look at themselves from 2016, and I've heard so many of them admit this, a podcast and articles and everything else. They think they spent too much time on Hillary Clinton's emails, and that's the reason why Hillary Clinton lost. So we can't do that again. And they've just given up on trying to show both sides.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Like I think in 2016, their mindset was Hillary's going to win. So let's throw some articles out there about some, you know, little scandal. And we'll throw that out there so we can say, we criticized both sides or we covered both sides. And now they're like, well, last time we did that, it didn't work. So now we just have to go all out. Like we cannot even. We can't even ask a question about Hunter Biden.
Starting point is 00:08:40 It's not, what's so scary is, it's not just the press who feels that way. We know Google, Facebook, Twitter, they all felt the same way. They said it right after. We can't allow this to happen again. So everyone is pulling out every stop and they don't care because they think Donald Trump is so bad that the ends justify the means. It doesn't matter what principle they violate. They will violate it. It's pathetic.
Starting point is 00:09:13 And again, for the millionth time, Savannah Guthrie acting as if the president has never denounced white supremacy. And again, for the millionth time. We just played a thing this week. And maybe you guys did, too. The 17 times it's been documented where he's denounced. Sarah, go ahead and pull that up if you have it. Let me know. I mean, over and over and over and over, he's denounced white supremacy, the KKK, David Duke.
Starting point is 00:09:41 I mean, he literally got out of a party in the year 2000 because David Duke got into it and took it over. And that's what he left. The Reform Party. Reform Party, yeah. And so again last night, he clearly and definitively denounced it all. And she acted like, why have you waited so long? It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:10:05 He did it that in the interview that they said he never, he said just good people on both sides. Yeah, he said it then. He said the sentence before. Look. And I'm not talking about the white supremacists. Right. They should be condemned. I'm not talking about white supremacists.
Starting point is 00:10:24 and Nazis and people like that. They should be condemned. What I'm saying, quiet, I was there. I saw the same things you saw. There were good people on both sides that were there. Right. Hey.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Right. How is that different than Antifa when they're saying, no, there are, there were good people there. That was a protest. You know how it's different? They won't say that, I'm not talking about the right.
Starting point is 00:10:54 and those throwing Molotov cocktails and crying for the shooting of cops. I'm not talking about those. Those people should be condemned. I'm talking about the good people that were there to march for black lives. They don't say that. They don't have to say it. They don't have to. Everyone implies.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Everyone understands. Of course, they don't think anything bad. And we keep forgetting that even during the debate, the first thing he said when the question was asked about whether or not he denounces white supremacy was sure sure and he said it then two more times yeah later on he said it three times he denounced it when they say he didn't and and again you know we're rehashing that I guess this stuff again it's like the wording used in the question during the debate was will you ask them to stand down and he said stand back and stand by which seems like he basically
Starting point is 00:11:45 butchered he was trying to just quote the same language no no Donald Trump ever butchers things like that he always does no no he doesn't last thing he doesn't he is a perfect craft. He is. He's a perfect orator. When he crafts his words,
Starting point is 00:12:00 he thinks, he pauses, he's deliberate. Look, we all know this. Yesterday they asked him, they're like, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:07 they asked him a health care question and he said, the problem with Obamacare is that it's very bad. And the problem with Obamacare, in the same answer about 30 seconds later,
Starting point is 00:12:15 and the problem with Obamacare is it's not good. It's not great. Well, I agree with both of those things. It's not quite that detailed. But again, this is who, you know, we all understand that about Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:12:28 And I think the press tries to use that against him, the fact that he doesn't word things in precise ways. Like, stand back and standby makes no sense to turn it into some sort of called arms. Stand by, if anything, that means don't do anything, right? It doesn't make, like, and he's quoting, they just use stand down. It was using the language that was used in the question. Right. And beyond this, he's done it, as we just talked about, a hundred times. already.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Yeah. Like if he didn't want to denounce white supremacy, he wouldn't do it over and over and over again. And if he secretly did like white supremacy, he wouldn't just admit it during the debate for the first time. None of this makes any sense. I have to tell you, too. I don't know why. Nobody asked Joe Biden to denounce Antifa, which is currently burning cities down and making threats
Starting point is 00:13:20 online that they are going to be even worse after. the election. He's not asked a single question, but QAnon, I don't even know what QAnon really is. I know. I don't know the whole thing. Neither does anybody else. Nobody knows. Nobody knows this.
Starting point is 00:13:37 And so when he's asked about it, will you condemn them? I don't know anything really about them. I know they're against pedophilia and pedophiles. Right. Yeah. That's about all I know. And they also think that there's a deep state. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:13:51 That one's right. But I don't know if they're. writing about it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I have no idea. Well, this is, and he actually made this point to Savannah Guthrie, which was, you know, just because you say it doesn't mean it's fact when he was talking. I think it was about QAnon when he was saying it. And it's like, well, if I just accept your analysis of this group I don't know anything about. Then I am denouncing a group and I might find out later that you're lying to me about it. Yeah. Well, that's why the press wouldn't lie. He did that with proud boys. It's probably. He doesn't know anything about. They're not racist. Their leader is black. Yeah. Their leader is black. How, how does that work out? There were plenty of black leaders of the KKK, Glenn. No, there weren't. No, they weren't. Those were the ones, those were, well, they had a stake in it. Yes, they were tied to the steak and burnt. I mean, cheese. Again, do I think he knows a little bit more about Q? He probably does. He knows it's built out of his supporters and he doesn't want to come out and bash them. There's probably some element to that. But again, like,
Starting point is 00:14:53 No one knows or cares about this topic. This is not an important topic. There was some poll I saw today that it's something like 25% of Americans have ever even heard of it. Why the hell is this in a presidential debate? I mean, if anything, you're just drawing people to go look at what the hell this is. And some percentage of them are going to find it and think it's true and get involved in it. And how many white supremacists are there? It's like they're everywhere if you're to listen to the mainstream.
Starting point is 00:15:23 And I never see them. Excuse me. I never see them. Oh, wow. Did you see that video in Charlottesville? He's saying that there's good people on both sides with torches. Both of you. I mean, you haven't recognized the racism that is in you.
Starting point is 00:15:37 You're both white. So you're both racist. So you're, I know, who's a white supremacist? I don't know. Look in the mirror, whitey. And meanwhile, over on ABC, George Stephanopoulos, Now think.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Do you think Bill O'Reilly would ever be allowed to host a debate? Now, he's just a guy from Fox. But when he was in Fox, Bill O'Reilly used to piss me off. I mean, he would say things and he would support things
Starting point is 00:16:11 and he was so up with with Barack Obama there during the Obama administration, not seeing any of these connections. He's a guy who actually, I think, has given people a fair shake when they're on. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:16:27 They would never let him hold a debate or host a debate. They would never accept it. George Stephanopoulos, the guy who was the spinmaster in the Hillary Clinton campaign and has been their spin master forever, he's asking the questions. It's amazing. I mean, he brought up Russell, who was also a Democrat. Yeah, but he never.
Starting point is 00:16:53 ever came from that perspective. And, you know, maybe you could make that transition, but has Stephanopoulos successfully done that? No. I mean, the last guy they were going to have, you know, do a debate. He got suspended because he was lying about being hacked on Twitter while he was trying to communicate with Skaramucci. Yeah, he's trying to, he's trying to get dirt on Donald Trump. He was supposed to be the moderator. He's from C-SPAN.
Starting point is 00:17:21 And he's trying to get dirt. on Donald Trump so he can add that dirt from Scaramucci. All right. Wow. Then he says, that's not true. Someone stole my, and I, the FBI is on it and they're hoping to find out who hacked into my computer. Well, the FBI did get on it.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Uh-oh. And it shows now that he was lying about it. So yesterday he had to admit that he lied about his computer. Otherwise, I think he was going to jail. He still should go to jail for lying to the FBI. He was supposed to moderate. presidential debate last night. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:56 This man has now been suspended because he was lying and trying to get up dirt on the president. This is how bad this is. This is not a made up problem. It is a legitimate problem. Watch those two debates to town halls last night. Donald Trump was constantly being attacked and interrupted. And interrupted.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Constantly. And I'm not necessarily opposed to that. But I am opposed to it when the opposite on the other channel, Joe Biden is basically being hugged. It was like a night. It was a warm gathering. He had plenty of time to explain himself. No one called out anything that he said as wrong.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Nobody came out with tough questions about the main news stories that were out there critical of the campaign. His China policy, nothing. They actually came out. And then I got to take a break. They actually came out this morning and said what Joe Biden is saying about the Supreme Court. He said he'll have to wait and see what happens.
Starting point is 00:18:53 What he's saying is the system is so broken that if he's going to fix it, yes, he may pack the court, but he'll take the hits for it and he'll be a four-year president and everybody can hate him, but that's what you have to do to fix America. That was their analysis on the New York Times Daily today. I mean, it's incredible. American financing is our sponsor. How much are you paying on interest for your home mortgage? Is it over 4%?

Starting point is 00:20:36 Let's play a couple of audio clips. Also want to get your thoughts at 888727BECK. What did you think of last night? What are we missing? What have we missed this week? What do you have a question on? maybe that I talked about this week and you'd like to hear more on it. Let us know.
Starting point is 00:20:56 The number is 8 at 8-8-727-B-E-C-K. We're going to take your phone calls here in just a minute. Let's start with Biden considering a mandatory vaccine and more. Listen. If it's safe, if it's effective, will you mandate its use? The answer is, depending on how clear there's vaccines, they say, have a very positive impact. and they're going to affect positively 85% of the American public. Or there's others say this vaccine is really the key.
Starting point is 00:21:29 This is the golden key. It depends on the state of the nature of the vaccine when it comes out and how it's being distributed. That would depend on. But I would think that we should be talking about, depending on the continuation of the spread of the virus, we should be thinking about making it matter. How could you enforce that? How could you enforce that? Oh, well, we'll do it.
Starting point is 00:21:53 We'll rely on the goodness of the American people. You know, there's a lot of people on both the left and the right that don't want to take the vaccine until they've seen other people take it. And the government is going to force us. You know, we didn't sign up for the army. You can't force us as a federal government to take it. Nowhere in the federal government, nowhere in the Constitution do they have charged. to force us to take any kind of medicine. The state can do it.
Starting point is 00:22:26 The state has charge of the state's health. So the small S state, your state, has a charge to be, or is that a large S? That's a large S state, right? The state of Washington. You have a chance, or they can impose these draconian things in an emergency, but they have the charge of people's health. Not the federal government. Not the federal government.
Starting point is 00:22:53 How are you doing that? And how are you going to enforce it? You're going to put people in jail? I mean, I think we put them in hot air balloons and just float them off into the sea. That would be the sky, not the sea. No, they float off into the ocean and then they fall in the ocean. Eventually comes down. Okay, well, thank you, Joe Biden for that riveting answer.
Starting point is 00:23:13 All right, relief factor. Inflammation. Even the word sounds unpleasant. inflammation. A lot of people in the world who suffer from frequent pain and inflammation is usually the thing causing it. It's why you get steroid shots in your back or wherever. If your body joints really start to swell, they'll give you prednisone or some sort of a steroid, which, by the way, if they give you a steroid, you shouldn't be president. I mean, I'm invoking right now the 25th Amendment. Anyway, hundreds of people, hundreds of people, I have personally,
Starting point is 00:23:48 talk to and they have taken relief factor and it has changed i mean i've had people weep weep saying you don't know what my life was like and now i'm it's all past me it's in the rearview mirror man the front windshield is bigger than the rearview mirror for a reason get past it and look ahead get out of pain get your life back relief factor dot com relief factor dot com 800 500 8384 call him now Well if you need anything now You need more on trivia More than ever

We just want you to check in with us at 8887-27-B-E-C-K.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Well, Joe Biden, it was great on Law and Order last night. Here's Joe Biden on what cops should do. Listen to this. We can do this. You can ban choke holes. You can, but beyond that, you have to teach people how to de-escalate circumstances. De-escalate. So instead of of anybody coming at you and the first thing you do is shoot to kill, you shoot him in the leg. There's way. Ah, that's a shot him in the leg. That's a great idea. Because that's what happens when the police come to talk to you, first thing you do is shoot to kill.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Yeah, that's right. I mean, you know, when you get pulled over. Play that and play this again. Listen to what he's saying. Play it again. We can do this. You can ban choke holes. You can.
Starting point is 00:25:49 But beyond that, you have to teach people how to de-escalate circumstances. De-escalate. So instead of anybody coming at you and the first thing you do is shoot to kill, you shoot them in a leg. Ah. How about the first thing you do is not shoot them? I mean, those are two good options, I guess, if that's, you know, just shoot them in the head or shoot them in the leg.
Starting point is 00:26:11 I'd like to, if you're de-escalating, I'd like to have another one. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hang on just a sec. Let's talk. Now, if they're coming at you with a gun and you are in fear for your life, shoot them. You're not going to shoot them in the leg either. You're going to shoot them to put them down.
Starting point is 00:26:30 That's what they're trained to do. Let me tell you something. Shoot to the center. What is the first thing that you learn about gun safety? Do you know? Don't point it at your face. That's number one, I think. I didn't get that.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Don't point it at anybody. Unless you're going to use it. Unless you're going to shoot it. You plan on killing them. Mm-hmm. Okay. A gun is for killing. It's not for wounding.
Starting point is 00:26:57 It's not for warning. You never point a gun at anything unless you intend on killing it. My understanding is it is also for shooting it off your porch if you have a shotgun, according to Joe Biden. That's only two rounds. You only fire two rounds and that chases every bad person away. No, by shotgun. He also said, shoot through the door.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Close yourself in and shoot through the door. He didn't say that. That's the dumbest, most dangerous thing I've ever heard. Ask Brianna Taylor's boyfriend how that works out. Yeah. It's not necessarily a good idea. By the way, it was at night. They came in the room.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Somebody started firing. They couldn't even see down the hall. It was so dark. They aimed towards the flash. Certainly weren't aiming at Brianna Taylor who didn't shoot them. Right. Her boyfriend did shoot them. That's what they were trying to hit.
Starting point is 00:27:52 No, they were trying to kill the innocent woman. Right. And miss the guy who shot them. And they thought that she had very long legs. They were shooting for the knees. What a ridiculous thing. Let's keep in mind the officer who was shot was shot in the leg. And he returned fire, which is why when you're a police officer, you don't shoot him in the leg. Because if they're armed, they can still get you.
Starting point is 00:28:19 And they will. And they will. If they've been shot, they're going to fire back. at you. Yes. It's asinine. What he's saying is ludicrous and no law enforcement agency in the world. No military personnel in the world would do that.
Starting point is 00:28:34 They just wouldn't do it. It just doesn't make sense. And I love the guy who's talking about de-escalating situations. The man who in a town hall challenged someone to a push-up contest after calling him fat. That's right. That guy is the guy's going to see it's about de-escalation of conflict. That's right. Let me go to Santo in New Hampshire.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Hello, Santo. Welcome. Glenn. Hi. Hey, I would just have a question for you. The question is, when he, Biden, continually referred to Depends, was he talking about policy? All right. Is it George in Georgia?
Starting point is 00:29:15 Hello? Yes, go ahead. How are you today? Very good. Just curious. I see Georgia turning. from red to blue again. I mean, towards it was blue back in the 60s,
Starting point is 00:29:26 and I see it getting ready to go that way. And the other thing I noticed when I was active duty in the military is that most of the guys in the military don't even know what the Constitution stands for, what they've sworn to defend and protect. And I used to carry a pocket constitution just so I could show
Starting point is 00:29:44 them what's going on. What do we do for our military to get them to understand? Well, here's the good news. The transition integrity Project has already funded and are already working with our military to explain where their loyalties should lie. So you've got that going for you. Okay. Lisa, North Carolina, hello Lisa.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Good morning. Glenn. How are you? Very good. It's great to speak to you. I appreciate you. Everything you do for us. Thank you. I appreciate Rush Limbaugh and especially Sean. Thank you. You guys are great. Thank you. I'm glad you get the word out for everybody. I just want to say that I think it's an absolute disgrace what they're doing to President Trump. He's a great human being. He's an awesome president. And I just don't understand why people can't see this. It's quite easy. They are not getting the same news that you're getting.
Starting point is 00:30:49 They're getting, if you're going for social media and you are a Democrat, you are, not getting the news that that maybe you get on your phone or your iPad. Social media has changed everything. They, I mean, it's very, very clear. Depending on, on the algorithm, it shows you what news you're getting. And if you're not seeing the other side, if you're not seeing anything positive about Donald Trump, you would believe that he's just out of control. I've talked to people recently that had no idea, no idea that he's done anything positive. And not just because, well, I don't think the Middle East peace deal. They didn't even know about the Middle East peace deal.
Starting point is 00:31:41 Did you also see the protests the other day where the Biden supporter came up to the Trump supporters and they started talking about race and they got involved in that discussion. and one of them said, if he's not a racist, why did he say that if you don't vote for me, you ain't black? And the Biden supporter said, he never said that. What are you talking about? He never said that. Of course he said that.
Starting point is 00:32:04 So they went back and forth for a few minutes. And the Biden supporter eventually said, if he said that, I'll tear up my sign right now. So they go to their phone. They find it on Google. They play it for him. And he walked off to ejected. The guy had never heard of it.
Starting point is 00:32:20 He'd never heard of it. He had no idea. ever happened. I mean, it's a huge part of our lives. We all know what happened, along with a million other racially tinged things that Joe Biden has said over the years. They don't know about any of that stuff. They don't. Amazing. We had Maggie Haberman. You guys know who she was right. She's one of the lead White House reporters for the New York Times. And she's also very, very anti-Trump, like Trump. Wait, for the New York Works for the New York Times. Right. I mean, it's surprising. All these big scoops come from Maggie Haberman. She has lots of connections inside.
Starting point is 00:32:53 in the White House and throughout Washington. And so she, though, was very early on the New York Post story yesterday, tweeting about it critically, saying like, oh, this doesn't add up and all this criticism about it. And she tweeted a link to the story. Well, the left got so angry at her for, she was criticizing the New York Post story on Hunter Biden, but she tweeted the actual link so people could actually find it and read it for themselves, which is now against, I guess, all journalism and all standards. and so I'm going through all the you know the responses to it and the left is going crazy
Starting point is 00:33:26 and I realize that they have a nickname for Maggie Haberman which is Maga Haberman. The left sees her as so pro-Trump that they that is actually what they believe. Oh my gosh. Which is impossible by any normal human standard to understand. she's nowhere near pro-Trump. They've had a couple of interviews where they've been mildly polite to each other, which seems to be the extent of the evidence that she's pro-maga. But like, think of the separation of worlds there.
Starting point is 00:34:01 There are people who are all lining up and go, yeah, Maggie Haberman, she's so pro-Trump. Like, what are you talking about? That's literally insane. Wow. But that is the reality of this world where we're looking at, you know, people in Twitter, they never see anything critical ever about Joe Biden. We can't avoid it as conservatives. That's the chasm between us, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:34:21 It's a chasm. So imagine if the situation was reversed, and I hate doing this, but I just want to make this one point. It's not a, you know, they always treat us unfairly. Imagine if the situation was reversed, and we were in control of social media and everything else. And the left came out, yeah, the left came out about Donald Trump and the steel do And it's real. And it's real. It's real. Okay. Because this Biden story is real. Would you, honestly, if it was real and there was evidence that Donald Trump did those things, would you still support him? No. I mean, I would have been for getting rid of him two years ago. So you had somebody else that could have run and made the case. I mean, I would never be. for that. I certainly would never
Starting point is 00:35:20 cover it up so I could have people who were completely out of control and working with a foreign government. But if we controlled Twitter and shut everybody down from telling this story, what would the left say about that?
Starting point is 00:35:36 But what would you do? They would be right. They would be right. If we did that, we would be fascists. They'd be right. I mean, would you, in your wildest dreams, what would have to happen for you to say, yeah, well, you got to, that's true. And oh, you know, just shut that down. What would have to happen? Is there anything that would make you say stop all of that news?
Starting point is 00:36:02 To me, honestly, like, unless you're just such a team player and what you're thinking, like, my team needs to win no matter what. My team is America. I think constitutionalist. Truth. It's truth. We don't survive without the truth. No man can survive without the truth. No man can survive without the truth. You can lie to yourself. I mean, I'm an alcoholic. Believe me. I am great at lying to myself. At least I was. I lied to myself every day. Every day you're not an alcoholic. You're not an alcoholic. Yes, I was. Yes, I was. And you lie to yourself. And what happens in the end? If you continue to lie to yourself, everything you love and hold dear is destroyed. This is what's happening with half our country. They are just living.
Starting point is 00:36:49 a lie to where the the dictionary can be changed in real time to fit that lie. And you expect things to work out well for you? Look who's, look who you're putting into office. You've got a guy whose son took millions of dollars from China was in bed, literally in, in, in, uh, behoots with the Communist Party of China to take the tech here in America and transfer it to China and did it and did it was representing companies from China that the FBI was investigating and they knew it investigating for trying to steal nuclear secrets from the United States. And he did it anyway. Are you, you want those people in charge? What does your future look like?

Starting point is 00:39:31 Very good, sir. Welcome to Friday. Well, I'll tell you what. The people, the general people in this country, including the far left, when you tell them one of Trump's policy, is Obama's policies or Biden's policies? They agree with it.
Starting point is 00:39:51 So it's not that they hate the message. They just hate the messenger. Yes. It's like a doctor with terrible bedside manner. I want the best doctor in the world, regardless of what his bedside manner is. And we have the best person running this country. People just don't like the way the message is given to them.
Starting point is 00:40:09 You're dying of cancer. You're going to be dead in a week. It doesn't change the fact that he said it rudely or he said it matter of factly. The fact is, that's the way it is. I mean, I just don't understand how this, the left can't grasp this. Because they've just, they've gotten lost in their hatred of Donald Trump. And the, the political people on the left that are in Washington, the reason why they can't allow this to happen is people will go to jail.
Starting point is 00:40:43 if Donald Trump is elected for a second term, he will pursue these things and people very high up will go to jail. And all of their deep state, all of the stuff that happened in the state department and the CIA and the DOJ, that will end. And they can't allow that to happen. That's really a motivating factor that no one is even looking at. We keep saying, oh, they hate him.
Starting point is 00:41:11 Yes, they do. You're absolutely right. But they also know that they are in deep trouble and they lose everything they've worked on for the last 30 years to 100 years in planting people in the deep state or in the, you know, the federal worker line. They can't lose that. And none of them want to go to jail. I want to talk to you a little bit about our sponsor this half hour. and it's Omaha Steaks. I'm a carnivore.

Starting point is 00:43:27 how distorted the news is well you can go a few steps further uh what happened last night in the in the debates or the town halls. One was a debate. It was just between Donald Trump and Savannah Guthrie. You look at the debates that happened last night. One was a softball game. No, it wasn't even that. A T-ball game where the score will always favor whoever is running.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Everybody gets to score a home run. And an actual vicious debate that Donald Trump totally kept his cool on last night. Why was one candidate asked tough questions and the other was at a T-ball game? Well, we'll explain and show you what's happening to our media beginning in 60 seconds. This is the Glenn Beck program. So, I mean, had a good night's sleep recently. Night before last, I did not sleep with my pillow. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:44:31 I have lots of pillows. I didn't sleep with my pillow. And I went to sleep. I woke up with a headache at turrets. turned into a full-fledged migraine. And I couldn't figure out what caused it, what caused it, what caused it. And then I remembered, I don't know if I, I don't think I slept with my pillow last night. I did last night, migraine's gone.

I want to talk to you a little bit about the debate. We talked about it all last hour. We played some clips from it. But why is it that it seems like the Democrats always get an easier path? And then when you listen to the news, it's like they weren't even watching it. Last night, Donald Trump did very, very well. He stayed calm. They talked about how it was chaos. It was only chaos because Savannah Guthrie kept interrupting the president. And if you watch Joe Biden, oh, well, it was a very different debate. It was. It was a very different debate.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Donald Trump's was hostile. And Joe Biden's was not. It was a very different feel. Well, who made it hostile? It wasn't Donald Trump. Donald Trump was being corrected and attacked and cut off constantly. And he pushed back, which he should do. But there was no reason for Joe Biden to push back because he was being questioned by a friendly.
Starting point is 00:47:10 Yes. So how friendly are they? Well, let me just give you, let me just give you a. in social media. Now, remember, we trust the social media world to be able to, to share stories. Well, we learned this week, you can't share stories. The Blaze was flagged for advertising a show about election fraud. We were throttled and flagged for an ad, for a tweeting out a message that said,
Starting point is 00:47:46 you have to watch tonight show. It's on election fraud. Wait, what? We were flagged because headlines can be misleading. Headlines can be deceiving. You need more context here. Yes, and we have it at 9 p.m. Eastern. I mean, excuse me?
Starting point is 00:48:07 So why is this happening? Well, let's just go through some of the people that work at these places. Jack Dorsey, he's the CEO of Twitter, he's an active Democratic donor. Omid Kortostani, director and executive chairman. He matched $530,000 with Jack Dorsey's donation to the ACLU. Then he donated thousands over the years to candidates and the DNC. Net Segal is their CFO. He has a history of donating to Democratic candidates. Evan Williams, former Twitter CEO, current board member. He donated. He donated. He donated $800,000 in 2016, 229,000 in 2018, 465 in 2020. He's apologized for Twitter's role in electing
Starting point is 00:48:59 Donald Trump. Bridget Coney, public policy director. She's in charge of government election partnerships with leading global governments and political publishers, including content strategy for Twitter. She interned and was press secretary for multiple Democratic politicians, plus worked on the Rachel Maddow show. Nicholas Basillo, senior communications manager and former communications manager for Kamala Harris. He was the press secretary for Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Carlos Mahoney, former director of public policy. He left to join Joe Biden's transition team, worked at the White House under the Obama administration, worked under Hillary Clinton. Brandon Borman, VP of Global Communications. He donated thousands recently to Joe Biden was the media spokesman for the decision to fact-check Trump's tweets. Those are the people at Twitter. Where are the, where are all the conservatives? Here's Facebook. Mark Zuckerberg donated some to Republicans, but mainly Democrats, is currently donating all the voting boxes. So you can go to a Facebook box and just stuff your ballot in there. Cheryl Sandberg, the chief operating officer, donated primarily to Democrats, openly Democrat, and endorsed Hillary Clinton.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Andy Stone, the policy communications director at Facebook. he joined the Democratic House Majority Pack. He was the press secretary to Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the press secretary to Senator Barbara Boxer. Anna McHanjoo, she is the global policy manager. She's in charge of global elections. She worked for Joe Biden, donated to Biden in 2020 and Clinton in 2016.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Brian Rice, the director of public policy, was the legislative assistant for John Kerry for three years. Probirmenta is the global public policy person. She was in the office of the U.S. trade representative, executive office for the president, for seven years when the president was Obama. You also have Jessica Hertz, former director and associate general counsel.
Starting point is 00:51:38 She oversees the ethical issues and on transition team for Joe Biden. She worked on principal deputy council in that office under the vice president Biden from 2012 to 2014. I don't know, Stu, what do you? I mean, is there a, have you noticed a trend with all of the people that are in senior positions at Facebook or Twitter? Almost too far right is what I picked up there. Well, that's one way of looking at it, and I'm sure the press would look at it that way. think there'd be some this is something that this is a crazy concept diversity diversity of thought
Starting point is 00:52:19 diversity no no it's just not it's not necessary no well they they actually i believe think they are diverse because they might have you know some Hillary Clinton supporters in there you know so you know so you you go from Antifa to Hillary Clinton wow yeah so they have the whole spectrum there Yeah, it's interesting. I was listening to somebody, some podcast, I think, and it was a liberal who was talking about this and kind of complaining about the, the woke culture in that sort of world. And it explained it, I thought, in an interesting way, where liberals and the people on the left inherently understand that if you don't have any black people or Hispanics or women at a workplace. there's a lack of diversity. You're not getting all those different viewpoints. They inherently get that.
Starting point is 00:53:16 And if you were to say, I'm just going to hire all white people, they would inherently say that's a terrible thing, right? However, when it comes to actual differences in thought, not skin color, which is, you know, it doesn't necessarily form your viewpoints, your actual differences in thought, they can't understand why you'd even include
Starting point is 00:53:36 someone who's just moderately left, let alone a conservative. You don't want any of those people around. Everyone has to agree. Everyone has to understand that sexual preference is now an insult. Like all of these things have to. There's these hardcore rules. You can't break any of them.
Starting point is 00:53:52 Anyone with any different opinion needs to be, you know, expunged, as Keith Olderman would explain. That's not healthy. I like the way you over pronounced it to. Expunged. There's like an extra G in there? What happened? But that is, I think that's the way that they think. And, you know, I think you'd think that these social media companies who, again, get half of their money from conservatives, clicking on ads, would understand this and want to please that audience.
Starting point is 00:54:21 But they don't seem to be doing that for now. Because it's about race. The only thing that is diverse is sexual, dare I say, preference. Oh, my gosh. And race. Yeah, you were about to say it. Right. Sexual orientation.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Yeah. That's the only differences. they don't think that a difference in opinion is important. A difference in opinion has to be stopped because they know the truth. And the truth is all white people are racist. So I see people by race. I mean, they are by definition racist. Now, not the, you know, clan sort of racist, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:55:06 although when it comes to Jews, many on the left are the Nazi kind of racist. However, they are racist because that's the only filter they see. They disagree with Martin Luther King. And what Martin Luther King said was judge me by who I am, what I do, what my character is. Judge me by my skills and my talent and my character and what I can do. They hate that. They hate that. Just like they used to love sexual preference and now they hate it.
Starting point is 00:55:40 Look at the writings of Ibram Kendi who outwardly explains this and says you should be discriminating against white people. I think he basically describes it as the people who created the system. But he's implicit and explicit at times saying that that's just white people, right? So the only way to solve those problems that he sees from the past, real and imagined, is to, as he's, He says discriminate in the future. Discriminate in the present. Discriminate. He's advocating for discrimination.
Starting point is 00:56:14 And his book is on the shelves at every target in America right now. On the end cap, by the way, in most of them. So if you're going by, if you're walking through a target, you're going to see anti-racist baby by Ebrom X. Kendi. And these are the things he's advocating and targeting babies with. Babies. White babies. Yeah, because, you know, white babies, that's true.
Starting point is 00:56:37 I guess babies of color do not need this information. Right, right. But white babies do. They can't be racist. Right. It's impossible. But white babies are racist from birth, so you have to start teaching them that. These are unhealthy practices, Glenn, for society.
Starting point is 00:56:50 They really are. They really are. It is everything. If you were looking to destroy a society, which they are, it's everything that you would say you wanted to do. I mean, I saw the, the Communist Party. USA from the 1920s their list of things they felt they had to do to destroy America. It's everything that's happening right now. Everything that's happening right now.
Starting point is 00:57:20 Oh, that's a conspiracy theory. Really? Because there were like 15 things on the list and every one of them have been done. What are the odds that that just mysteriously happened that way? nothing nothing was done to stop the destruction of America by its foes internally but all of the foes list that was done wow what a coincidence all right back in just a second your phone call 888 727 BECK let me tell you about Patriot mobile getting to a place in our society right now where it is it's me versus you or uh or, you know, them versus us.
Starting point is 00:58:04 And I hate that. I hate it. But it's getting harder and harder now to avoid the big mobile companies like Verizon. When they started, you needed them. But you don't need them anymore. Can you hear me now? Everybody's on the same cell towers. Technology has grown by leaps and bounds.
Starting point is 00:58:24 Everybody's on the same cell towers. But what the difference is is the price you pay, the service you get, the people that are part of the service department, and what else this company stands for? I'm sorry, but if you've been, you know, a fan of the NFL and the NBA, and you're somebody who has said, you know what, I can't take it anymore, I don't want to support them anymore. And you're part of the ratings going down.

Patriotmobile.com slash Beck or 972 Patriot. 10 seconds, station ID. I've got a few things to say about an article in the Washington Post about things that were leaked apparently from Ben Sass.
Starting point is 01:00:05 Now, how did the Washington Post leak this information? I mean, they weren't supposed to leak. That was a private conversation. between him and supporters. How are they doing that? They should be blocked from Twitter. They should be blocked from Twitter. Indeed, they should.
Starting point is 01:00:19 I want to talk to you about something that Henry Van Dyke wrote years and years ago, and most high school students were required at one point to memorize this. He wrote, For things a man must learn to do if he would make a record true. to think without confusion clearly, to love his fellow man sincerely, to act from honest motives purely, and trust in God and heaven securely.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Are any of those things being done? To think without confusion clearly. No, the motto today for most people is chaos, Not you, but those who are feeding you and feeding your mind information, those who are creating policies for the election. It is intended to confuse. To love his fellow man sincerely. You know, it's one thing to say you love someone. It's another one to actually act on it.
Starting point is 01:01:37 You would see what Wolf Blitzer happened with Nancy Pelosi this week. Are you feeding them, Wolf? Are you? Are you? Because we are. No, you're not. Nancy, you're not. I pay tax dollars.
Starting point is 01:01:53 And you're supposed to be getting that to the right people. And what's crazy about it is you take at least 40 cents of every dollar of mine and piss it away. At least 40%. Meanwhile, I give to charity. And I know exactly where that money is going. and I can stop paying it at any time if they're corrupt. Which one is seeing things without confusion and is actually engaged in love? Somebody who does their own homework and gives their money or their time to serve or somebody that just pays their taxes.
Starting point is 01:02:38 To act from honest motives purely. Holy cow, is anyone doing that? Is there anybody in the press that has honest motives and they're acting on those honest motives purely? And Dera even asked to trust in God and heaven securely. We need to return to correct principles. And no president is going to lead us there. you know, you don't, you don't like Donald Trump because of, you know, the chaos he creates. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Do you think the left and people who don't condemn Antifa are people that are against chaos? People who open prisons? People who say there's no bail necessary anymore. So you get booked, you can just. walk right out. Is really? Is that not going to cause chaos itself? Are lies built upon lies not going to end in total chaos?
Starting point is 01:04:15 Maybe we should practice these four things. To love and to act and to trust. All right you then. Life lock. Who are you? Your identity. It's not just wrapped up in how much money you have in the bank. It's in the type of person you are.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Just what we were just talking about. That's the only thing you own is your good name. And if somebody takes your credibility and destroys it, you lost the only thing you really truly own. And now you have, without credibility, you really have nothing. Your identity and your credibility is really important. And when cybercriminals try to reach in and steal part of it, they absolutely have to be stopped. it's more important than ever to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting your life. Every day we put our information out on the internet and it is at risk.

Starting point is 01:06:09 Or prepare. If you haven't prepared your life, You need to. You need to. You know, Stu said something today. I said, look, I just want to talk to you guys about something, you know, just in case of catastrophic collapse. And we talked about something. And Stu said, what did you say exactly? And unfortunately, that's kind of in the conversation right now. Right. From you, that's crazy. Because you've always, you're an optimist and you've agreed with my logic on getting there. But you didn't always see. that that would happen, and I hope that it wouldn't too. And I probably still have more hope that it won't happen than you. But the fact that we're actually talking about it, I mean, that's insanity. Yeah, that you're even considering it.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Look at this year. How could you not put everything on the table? Look at what's going to happen, you know, in the election. The America is going one direction or another. It's not even close. You know, we've always had, oh, gee, is it going to be John McKee? Kane or Bill Clinton. What difference is there?
Starting point is 01:07:20 You know, they're both going to take a same. This is different. One is taking us one direction and the other is taking us in the exact opposite direction. This one really matters. And if you think either of those directions are going to be less bumpy than 2021, you're wrong. You're just wrong. With that being said, I want to talk to you about Ben Sass.
Starting point is 01:07:47 There was a story in the Washington Examiner that Ben Sass said that in a conversation with constituents, Donald Trump has flirted with white supremacists. Stop it. Kisses, dictator butts. Stop it. Sells out our allies, spends like a drunken sailor, mistreats women and trash talks evangelicals behind their backs. Those are all quotes.
Starting point is 01:08:14 Really? Really, Ben? Now, I can understand differences. I really can. And I can understand that you don't like Donald Trump and the way he speaks or the way he acts or whatever. I get it. I get it. Yeah. And, you know, there's room, you know, on the right side of the aisle for people to disagree on these points. Correct. I think that's correct. I know, Ben, we had him on the show just the other day. Right. Like, I mean, there's no, there's no problem with people discussing these things, I think, openly. And I don't want to change Ben from. who he is. Look, Ben has done some really good things. But if all I concentrated on was how wrong he was on all of these, all of these policies that Donald Trump is doing, that he's just wrong. What do you, what do you mean that you're only focusing on these things? What about the others? You know, you're just a piece of crap and you should be run out. No, no. I think you have a right to say it and believe it. And in some ways, I can understand it. I think you're wrong, but I can understand it. And I think it's important, honestly, to have some people on your general side of the aisle who are asking some of these questions.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Sure. It's just a matter of like, you know, whether you agree with them. And I think it's important to go through it and analyze each one. If you have everyone in lockstep behind a guy, that's a bad thing. But you know what? But when it comes to time to close the ranks, you close the ranks and you question things and you push in private. If you believe you're in a war to end all wars. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:09:44 Right. And he, I mean, and he said to on the air, he doesn't believe that's where we are. Uh, kind of. He believes were. He said he, he sort of did the thing where he mocked, this is the most important election of all time. Like, I think that's what he is. He didn't with the Senate. He did. Yeah, he did say the Senate was really, really important. He said the Senate will change everything. If they get the Senate, you know, it changes, it changes everything. And he's right about that. But if they get the House and if they get the House, the
Starting point is 01:10:13 White House, the media, social media, it'll be two years before you get the Senate, because the Senate will only be able to block. And so they'll spin it as their obstructionist to all this pain that Donald Trump did to us when it will be their policies that are going to just put the final nail in our coffin. So let me just say this to Ben Sass. I am, while I respect you, and I like the things you say about uniting and bringing people together. I agree. We have to bring people together on the truth, and I'm disappointed in you on the truth. And if you would like to correct me, this is an open forum to you. You can call me anytime. But let me just point out a few things that you're missing here. Donald Trump has given us great judges on the lower court,
Starting point is 01:11:06 great judges, and more than anyone else in history. And he allowed my Lee and and and and uh, Ted Cruz to actually vet these people. We have three judges that are far superior than most of the people. Any Republican has ever given us, including John Roberts at the top of our list and other bogus constitutional, constitutionalist as Supreme court members. And he may have just nominated and it looks like it's going to pass.
Starting point is 01:11:36 another Clarence Thomas, at least possibly. Donald Trump also kicked the ass of ISIS when everybody else said, oh, it can't be done. And Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton were arming ISIS. He went over and kicked their ass. And then he came home. He got us out of the insanity of the Iran deal. He killed their head of terror when everybody said,
Starting point is 01:12:03 oh, you can't get out of the Iran deal. And you can't kill. You can't kill their head of terror. He did. And then he boxed them in. And they're currently collapsing. That's Donald Trump that's collapsing, collapsing their economy. And he's doing it at the same time he is brokering a Mideast peace deal that everyone said could never happen.
Starting point is 01:12:26 And it started with him moving our embassy to Jerusalem, despite the deep state and state department and the press. and many Republicans who say, oh, no, it's too dangerous. This is something no president has done, even though they all promised to do it. Yeah, he did meet with North Korean dictator, and I hated it at the time. But I will tell you this. I really hate the fact that no other president did anything.
Starting point is 01:12:56 They just kept doing the same thing. Why? Because the State Department's given the same advice. They did the same thing over and over again, and North Korea kept gaining power and nuclear bombs, the ability to build them. You're out of time. What are you going to do?
Starting point is 01:13:13 What's your idea? What would you do? Donald Trump is a risk big, win big, risk, big, lose big guy. When there are no options on the table, you know what? Why don't I go over there say nice things? By the way, he's also said he would burn him in the fires of the nuclear arsenal as well. that's not exactly kissing somebody's ass that's negotiating did something happen no didn't was it worth a shot sure it was by the way uh in in seeing how he has gotten europe to pay their fair share for nato and
Starting point is 01:13:50 their defense i think that's pretty good he also brought the arabs and the jews together while smashing the chokehold of the plo that's never happened before Saudi Arabia is now leading, leading the Middle East because of what president has done, his leading the Middle East towards Jerusalem and the embrace of Israel. That's, you know, he also, uh, he also stood up to the Chinese. And that's a big deal. You know, instead of selling them supercomputers like Clinton did, accepting lead poison in our dog food like Bush did, or loving the CCP, or taking me.
Starting point is 01:14:32 millions in dirty money like Obama and Biden did, he actually stood up to them. I caught him some slack on some tweets that I don't like. Ben Sass, he's also defended religious liberty unlike any other president in at least the last 100 years. He has actually stood. Does he make jokes about evangelicals behind their back? I don't know. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:14:58 Look at what he's doing. He's protecting religious. just liberty. He's also a true pro-life advocate. Unlike most Republicans that, you know, just talk a good game. Well, you know what, that's bad. And then they get in office, they do nothing. He's actually backed it up with action instead of just talk. He's also made real inroads and opened doors that the GOP were too wussy. Oh, I'm afraid. I've got my skirt on. I don't want to talk to blacks or Hispanics. They'll never do anything, so let's just ignore them. He didn't ignore them, but he also didn't pander to them.
Starting point is 01:15:39 Oh, yes, he does. He panders to them all there. Really? Remember, remember the left telling us? Oh, he's called them all rapists and killers and murderers. Really? He's been pandering. Now, I think he actually cleared the dead wood and opened all the pathways up
Starting point is 01:15:56 so they could have access to higher education, create jobs, and not get lost in the prison system, something that Joe Biden helped create. Donald Trump also took an economy that had been beaten down, had been perverted, had been regulated to death, and the people who had been told, you can't do it. You didn't build that. It'll never happen. Do you remember when Obama and Biden claimed that the economy in 2016 that this economy was as good as it would ever get? We're never going to have jobs like we had before. Well, he's right. Donald Trump came in and gave us the lowest unemployment rate since 1969.
Starting point is 01:16:40 That was the year, by the way, I celebrated my fifth birthday. Look at me. That's a long time ago. He also created the lowest unemployment for Hispanics and blacks ever and caused the first real growth in pay that I can remember. remember, Ben, are you still with me? Because I'd love to have you on to talk about it. I would. I'd like to hear your opinion.
Starting point is 01:17:08 By the way, he's also responded to the largest pandemic in 100 years by doing things I've never seen any president do. First, America's biggest capitalist that believes in business, business, business. He's an evil businessman. Only listens to business. Shut the entire economy down. and knowingly put his reelection at risk in order to save people. You think he's so dumb he didn't know that the economy being shut down was going to hurt him at election time?
Starting point is 01:17:42 Oh, no, but he did that, but he hates people. He just wants to see them die. He closed travel with China and Europe. And when he did it, Joe Biden and the rest of him called him a racist, xenophobic, just stirring hatred, making something out of this. Now that he was right, now everyone says they were for it, and he somehow took too much time doing what they were against. He stood alone, and he was willing to take the heat.
Starting point is 01:18:14 When everyone bashed him because he wouldn't seize control and become an authoritarian by telling states and companies what to produce, he instead asked the free market to step to the plate because he trusts the people of this country to do the right thing. But by not taking control, he's now called a dictator and a Nazi. Meanwhile, he's been blamed for the bloodbath created by Governor Cuomo's nursing home policies. They said two million would die. Best case scenario, 200,000 if we did everything right.
Starting point is 01:18:47 Gee, it's just over 2,000. Looks like he did almost everything right. No, no, no, he slaughtered people. He fought the lies that we now know were started intentionally by the Hillary Rodham team to smear Donald Trump as a Russian operative. They impeached him on bogus information and things they knew now we know were lies. And it was all known and enabled by the White House, including President Obama, the DOJ, CIA, Department of State, FBI, D&I. I don't think I left anybody out because, well, no, I'm sorry. We heard lately that looks like the Pentagon.
Starting point is 01:19:28 Some of the people in the Pentagon were part of a coup, not to mention the press and Congress who did things that would embarrass not only Frank Underwood, but it would embarrass Kevin Spacey and he's pretty hard to embarrass. He has single-handedly exposed the press for who they are because of his tweets, his personal style, and frankly his balls of steel. he's exposed the enemies of the people, which I hated when he said it first, but it turns out to be true. Any group or person knowingly lying to destroy our president, our constitution, the free market are not just enemies of the American people, they're enemies of the freedom of all mankind. And he stood alone.
Starting point is 01:20:18 I personally am sick and tired of people who can't at least give him a fair shake. on the things he has done. Let me tell you about real estate agents, I trust. When you go into a restaurant, you're going to get a way better meal from the guy who spent 20 years studying under the best chefs in France and Italy and managing his own restaurants, then you are from the guy whose job it is to occasionally sneeze on your fries at the drive-thru.
