The Glenn Beck Program - Trump’s 'Hardest Decision' to Kill a Terrorist WASN’T Hard | 10/28/19

Episode Date: October 28, 2019

Trump just announced the death of ISIS mastermind Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. And the contrast between Trump’s strength and Obama’s hesitancy to kill Osama bin Laden could not be more apparent. Glenn th...e “hip-hop master” gets jiggy with the freshest in rap news: Rapper YG shoved a fan offstage for refusing to yell “F*** Donald Trump,” and Kanye West is surprisingly the new voice of reason with his new album, “Jesus Is King.” While the crowd at a World Series game chanted “Lock him up!” to Trump, the media has been predicting “the beginning of the end” since before he took office. And in some 2020 news, Joe Biden is less popular than Bernie, Beto would allow AR-15s at hunting clubs, and Buttigieg may actually have a chance. Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:00:02 Thank you. It was a complete surprise. I knew about it. I hope I didn't. It was a surprise to me at all. I knew about it in advance. No, you didn't. Yeah, I did. Did you really?
Starting point is 00:00:12 Yeah, I was even in the video. Oh, yeah, that's right. You were. Saying, hey, Glenn, you won something. Congratulations. Yeah. Well, it was a real surprise. 45 seconds.
Starting point is 00:00:25 It is the inaugural Bonhofer Award. That's cool. which we'll be giving to people that are much better than me in the future. So you're like this is like the first episode of a series where they had like a really low budget. Yeah, this is this is the, this is like the pilot. Yeah. You know, where they're like, okay, except for the main actor, I like it. Right.
Starting point is 00:00:50 We'll buy it. Just change him out. Yeah. All right. We got a great show coming up, including what had to have been, the hardest decision of Donald Trump's life. Hardest decision. You're right.
Starting point is 00:01:06 In 500 years. You're right. In 500 years. Next. Gosh. You know it's so sad. His Donald Trump had to make the hardest decision in the last 500 years. Well, I'm just assuming it.
Starting point is 00:01:46 He hadn't said it was. But I remember when Barack Obama had to decide whether or not he should kill or take out Osama bin Laden. It was the hardest decision of his life. It was the hardest decision of 500 years. And remember, he played cards upstairs. He couldn't even stand to be in the situation room, except for a few minutes,
Starting point is 00:02:13 when they took a picture of him sitting in the back on the couch with his hands over his eyes and his mouth. Oh, my gosh, what are they? doing that poor man. I'm sure it was exactly the same with Donald Trump as we took out Al-Baghdadi. Either that or it was the complete opposite.
Starting point is 00:02:35 You decide in one minute. This is the Glenback program. So I don't know about you, but it's not every day you survive getting hit by a van. But that's what happened with Joseph in New Jersey. One day he was just crossing the street in New York City and a van hit him. He was rushed to the hospital, and he was lucky to make it with this.
Starting point is 00:03:01 What a surprise getting hit by a van in the streets of New York. It's so orderly. Survival doesn't always come with guaranteed recovery, and for years afterward, Joseph had trouble doing yard work, playing with his kids, because he had so much pain. Then one day you heard about relief factor, and miracle of miracles within a few weeks, Joseph got his life back.
Starting point is 00:03:21 The pain he had been in ever since that day where he was hit by that van melted away, and it stayed away ever since because he takes Relief Factor every day. When taken properly, Relief Factor attacks the inflammation that causes much of our pain, and it works in 70% of the people who take it. It costs only 1995 to start the three-week quick trial. Try it. Just try it and see if your pain doesn't go away. If you want a drug-free natural way to ease your pain and get your life back, go to relieffactor.com. That's relieffactor.com.
Starting point is 00:04:12 So could we put up, if you happen to be watching The Blaze, let me just put up a picture of Donald Trump in the situation room as they watch Al-Baghdadi being blown up in a tunnel. Do we have that picture? Can we put that picture up? Apparently not. Yeah, you do. I just, I thought I just saw it. if you can get that and also the picture, I'd like to see them side by side, the picture of Hillary Clinton as she was sitting. Remember, it wasn't Barack Obama sitting at the center of the table. That's right.
Starting point is 00:04:48 He was like off the side slumped over, kind of like lean him back or something. Yeah, he was sitting on a couch. Like in the back, like, I don't know what to do here. He's laying on a waterbed, actually. I think he was. He had put a water bed in the corner. With a bar with Katie Hill, I think.
Starting point is 00:05:02 but so it was quite a different scene now have you seen the picture of of Donald Trump yeah it's pretty badass yeah he's sitting right in the center there it is he's sitting right in the center he is alert his shoulders are squared uh notice everybody's in a everybody's in a suit unlike with uh with Barack Obama who I think was in his PJs he had a crop top actually he was wearing a crop top on a water bed if I remember it correctly It was like a mesh crop top, which was a strange choice for a big operation like that. So Barack Obama says it was the hardest decision that he had to make. And Joe Biden says, hardest decision in 500 years.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Oh, what a hard decision it was to get Osama bin Laden. I mean, the world's most wanted terrorists, killed thousands of our citizens. Do you invite him to tea? Or do you go kill him? I don't know. 500 years of decision making process. I don't know. I don't know what we do.
Starting point is 00:06:02 There's Barack Obama sitting in the back, Hillary Clinton with her hand over her mouth. Oh my gosh, what are they going to do to this poor man? Oh, my gosh. Look at that. It's fascinating. I mean, look, these are pictures they release, right? They come from the White House. So it's not necessarily, look, you couldn't.
Starting point is 00:06:24 It's not necessarily exactly how these operations go. It's how the White House wants to message them, right? And you look at the picture from the Trump administration, it's a message of strength. It's a message of like, we went in there and kicked this guy's ass and we're glad he's dead. The message from the Obama White House is, oh my gosh, I can't believe we have to do such things. Oh, my gosh, I don't know. This is a terrible downside of our job that we have to get rid of these people who may have gone down the wrong road. If we just listen to them.
Starting point is 00:06:57 If we could hit them with guns of therapy, we would do that. If we could just get rid of all of the guns in the world and have rainbow ponies, oh, it would be the best. It would be the best. Unfortunately, we are not going to do the flower in the gun procedure we were hoping for. It's just that they hate capitalism. They just hate our capitalism. That's how they, I mean, that's the messaging of a photo like that, right?
Starting point is 00:07:23 Brock Obama, they look pensive. They look, oh, man, I can't believe we have to do this. I guess we have to. And that's kind of how they treated the decision, too. I mean, they waited for what, months to 100 days? I thought it was six months. I remember it being a very long time, which they had the information where they believed he was. Where he was pacing back and forth in the White House.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I don't know what to do. I don't know. My image of that night is not that picture. My image of that night was him upstairs. Remember he was playing cards upstairs. He didn't even want to be in the situation room. They're killing Osama bin Laden. you have troops on the line
Starting point is 00:08:01 and you had you were upstairs playing cards like oh I don't know is this gin can I play on that four I mean that that's insane and now look at the picture of of Donald Trump sitting there right in the center sitting erect he's got Pence right next to him
Starting point is 00:08:23 Pence looks serious focused everyone in the room looks like kill them. You know what I mean? Yeah. They look confident. They look like they are concerned about our forces. But nobody is.
Starting point is 00:08:42 There's not a lot of cowering going on. No, there's none. There's zero. That's a picture that you send around the world that makes people say, these guys will come and get you. And you're the matter. of aesthetics on these things. Like, you notice looking at the two pictures, you're at table level
Starting point is 00:09:03 for the Donald Trump picture. Like, they're all looking down essentially at you, right? There's a, where if you look at the Obama picture, it's like the, it's a selfie angle. It's like looking down. Really good point. Isn't this? What is the difference? Yeah. Do you know what the difference is? Because when, you know, when you're doing a movie, if you're doing a horror movie, you'll notice you're always looking up at the people. You know, you're looking up at Jason Borges. You're looking up at. Michael Myers and they're looking down at you because they're in the position of power. Yeah, dominance.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Where the opposite is true in the Obama photo. Like it's, I mean, it looks like the selfie, they have it on a long selfie stick and it's towards the ceiling and it's pointed down at you, which looks good for Instagram models, not necessarily the right angle when you're trying to project strength. Especially, I mean, look whose head is the lowest in the picture. Put that picture back up. Look whose head is the lowest in that picture. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Barack Obama's. Yeah. He's the lowest. He's like buried in the corner. Yeah, he's in the corner. It looks like a little, like a little weakling, honestly. That's incredible. And they message this, right?
Starting point is 00:10:09 I mean, like, this is, they can... They put the picture back up of Donald Trump. Fascinated by this picture. But this is something that they choose to release. This isn't like, okay, there happened to be a reporter in there who got the shot. This is, you know, this is their photographer. Like, there's focus. They're all staring at you for, in the...
Starting point is 00:10:29 the Trump photo, you know, it is an intensity. So, you know what? Look at Donald Trump's head. His head is the highest if it wasn't that the other heads were coming closer to you. Right. Yeah. He is sitting the highest in there too. And look at the way he's just focused.
Starting point is 00:10:50 I mean, these are two incredible pictures that really say everything, absolutely everything you need to know about. the two administrations and how they felt about killing terrorists. Yeah, it tells the story of their foreign policy, right? Yeah. I mean, the reason why ISIS exists is because of failures of the Barack Obama approach. So yes and no. Yes and no. It is a failure.
Starting point is 00:11:19 However, I don't think you really, I don't think any of us know what the actual policy was and still is, apparently. of the Democratic Party and the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton. We have, in doing the research for this Wednesday's special, we stumbled upon a name that kind of popped up in Ukraine. We're like, wait a minute, why do we know that name? And none of us could remember. So we went back into the files and just searched for the name. And a name popped up that we haven't seen since around 2010.
Starting point is 00:11:59 And it was when we were just finishing up at Fox, and it was a name that was associated with several players. And I don't want to say too much because we want to make sure we have everything buttoned down and then bring it to you. We will tell you a little bit about it on this Wednesday show. But I'm telling you, I said to my wife, she said, what is it that you're working on? and I told her and I said, honey, I think for the very first time, I have found something that if it is the policy still currently, and I believe it is, I think it's unknowingly, I think it is deep state.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I mean, it's just, it was put into action and it's just running. And it explains what they're truly doing in Ukraine. and I said, honey, I think if this is really on autopilot and it doesn't stop and people know about it, I don't think I could fly the American flag anymore. It makes me so ashamed of what our country is doing and nobody, I think both sides, Republicans and Democrats, when you hear what we have found, you will be so disgusted. and you will, I hope, rise up, and I hope the president will declassify something and then stop it. But it is deep state and what we're doing around the world.
Starting point is 00:13:45 And it's not good. So when you see the little cowering pictures of the Obama administration, that's not really who they are. That's not who they are. that's the that's the face they put on but it's much more accurate see the little Hillary Clinton with her with her hand over her mouth at that moment oh my what are we doing oh oh no it's much more accurate picture of Hillary Clinton when she found out that the Libyan ambassador, the Libyan president, Omar Gaddafi, was dragged through the streets and killed,
Starting point is 00:14:32 beaten to death in the streets. Remember what she said? We came, we saw, he died, and then she laughed. That is truly the Obama policy and the policy at the State Department today. And we will show that to you. And we begin this Wednesday in two nights. It's part two of our chalkboard. This one is, all right, what's happened since?

Starting point is 00:17:53 For more information and rules, go to protectendefend.com. Standard message and data rates do apply. We pause for 10 seconds, station ID. Let me ask you this. Do you ever hear Barack Obama talk about how Osama bin Laden cried and wept? I don't even know if this is true, but what a brilliant play this is. Here's Donald Trump over the weekend. talking about how al-Baghdadi died.
Starting point is 00:18:31 What they've done with the internet through recruiting and everything, and that's why he died like a dog, he died like a coward. He was whimpering, screaming, and crying. And frankly, I think it's something that should be brought out so that his followers and all of these young kids that want to leave various countries, including the United States, they should see how he died. He didn't die a hero.
Starting point is 00:18:56 He died. coward, crying, whimpering, screaming, and bringing three kids with him to die. I mean, this is, he's had some criticism over this from the press. Why? From who? Why? For what reason? Exactly, right. I mean, like, this has been pretty standard procedure for presidents to, to tell, I mean, you could hear George Bush saying those same thing, same thing in different words, right? I mean, he said all the time, these cowardly people, like, it's a messaging thing to people who follow these guys. that they all look brave when they're, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:31 they're electrocuting prisoners and they're burning people to death and they're chopping heads off. And then when it comes down to their life, they're, you know, a pathetic mess of whimpering nonsense, right? Like, that's the way these things end and they need to know it. So what is the, what was the concern? Oh, he's still a human being and the president. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:19:50 It's not a refined thing for the pressure to do. Shut up. And this is the way he, the language he used was not appropriate for this moment. He went out, died like a dog in a tunnel, in a tunnel, and taken three kids with him. Absolutely. What was inappropriate about that? I mean, how is that? Not cowardly. And you're murdering your children? I mean, this is what Gerbils did. This is something, I mean, it's only the worst people on earth do such things. And of course, he was. You know, this is a guy who, it's easy to say, oh, he was a terrorist leader. Now, this is the guy who,
Starting point is 00:20:27 who masterminded the social media approach of, you know, lighting people on fire in cages, dipping cages into water and drowning people, electrocuting prisoners, you know, decapitating people for, you know, for retweets. This is not a guy who... Crucifying Christians. They won't even mention those people.
Starting point is 00:20:53 They won't even mention them. You know what they should have done? is they should have looked at that and said, died like a dog. Yeah, well, maybe, but let's remember all of his greatest hits. Yeah. And showed the beheadings,
Starting point is 00:21:06 showed the executions, showed the drowning in water, the electrocutions, the crucifixions. You would have shown those. You would have shown that this guy was responsible. He is the reason the Nazarene Fund existed. He is the reason.
Starting point is 00:21:24 And still exists. exists, by the way. Yeah. I mean, why we started it. Yeah. Because this guy was executing Christians going door to door and executing them. And I got news for you. You think Louis C.K. is bad. He's a Me Too guy. You think even Harvey Weinstein is bad? I mean, the things that this man did to women and authorized and promoted mass rape on a scale has not been seen in this.
Starting point is 00:21:56 world for a very long time, not to mention murders and imprisoning and taking away all rights and dignity from women. And, you know, like, I mean, look, I don't think there's anybody out there saying that he was a good guy. But the, you know, the Washington Post calling him an austere religious scholar in his obituary. That's crazy. You know, this sort of treatment is very bizarre, and it plays right into what is true, that the media does everything they can to take these things away from Trump. They make it about Trump. I mean, this guy, we killed the most wanted terrorists in the world, and the fans of the nationals game were booing the guy on that day.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Like that, we weren't booing Barack Obama the day he killed Osama bin Laden. I mean, it was the best day of his presidency. Again, he didn't kill Osama bin Laden. Trump didn't do this either. But there is a, that was the best day of his presidency. Exact opposite reaction. And you know what? And they all gave the credit to Barack Obama, and none of them will give it to Donald Trump.

Starting point is 00:24:43 He was at the M1 ball and looked nice. Mm-hmm. Stu sat in the corner like a little mouse, not, I was like the Barack Obama of the picture. I was like in the back slubbed over. Yeah, he was. Your head was lower than just about anybody in the room, I noticed. That's true.
Starting point is 00:24:58 Yeah. Yeah. So he was, you notice, and we have an announcement to make, Stu just signed a new deal with the program, so he's going to be here for another show up for a couple more years. 10 days or whatever it is so we can tolerate. Very honored. But when I called him out
Starting point is 00:25:17 And I'm like, hey, and Stu just, you know, he just signed a new deal. He's got a, he's got some money laying around in the couch now. That was appreciated, by the way. I just wanted to. Yeah. Well, you didn't stand up. Everyone was like, where's Stu?
Starting point is 00:25:30 Yeah, I could have given you that moment, but I didn't. But you did? I didn't. I didn't. Did I? I said back there, the people right around me knew because I was sitting with them and a couple tables around me, but I was way in the back of the corner.
Starting point is 00:25:42 Yeah. And you just got to set up there and just like, look around aimlessly. for about 30 really quiet seconds. Yeah, it was awesome. Nothing. Nothing. And I appreciate that. It was a, it was a, it was my least favorite, um, one, uh, fundraising gala. Why?
Starting point is 00:26:01 It's quite an endorsement. Because you guys knew and, uh, I didn't know. I was, uh, horrified when I, when I found out, I was sitting at the table. Uh, and, um, and I had no idea what was coming my way. And we had been working on something for a couple of years, and I know who we were talking about giving it to, and decided, no, not this year, probably next year.
Starting point is 00:26:32 And we had worked on this really beautiful award called the Bonhofer Award, and it's for people who will stand and speak in the face of evil. Bonhofer said Silence in the face of evil is evil itself Not to stand is to stand Not to speak is to speak God will not hold us Guiltless
Starting point is 00:26:55 And so it requires people Who are willing to stand So I'm sitting there And I said to Suzanne who's running The you know running Mercury 1 I said Am I supposed to speak tonight
Starting point is 00:27:11 Because I heard I was supposed to speak and I don't know what am I supposed to talk about. And she's like, oh, you know, didn't you get the notes? And I'm like, no. And she looks over at my wife. And my wife looks at me. And I said, do you have notes? And she's like, yeah, I've got them at my purse.
Starting point is 00:27:28 And I said, can you take them out of your purse? I think I'm supposed to speak in a few minutes. What am I supposed to say? And then she looks strangely at Suzanne. And Suzanne said, ah, you'll be fine. Just ad libid. And I'm like, just add lip. I don't know what I'm supposed to even talk about.
Starting point is 00:27:43 And so my wife is looking through the whole script that she had. And I'm like, I'm the one who has to speak. Can I look at the script? And she just gives me this dirty look. And she gives it to me like, okay, I know now why she didn't want to give it to me. Because as I'm turning it and it says, you know, Bonhofer Award, it says, you know, Glenn Beck. And it's being given to me. And that's when my name is said on stage, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:28:13 and Beck and I'm like, wait, what? No, no. And I walk up and I gave this speech and I don't even know what I said and it was, uh, I just walked off the stage just not feeling good, not feeling good. It was the opposite of I think winning the Oscar, you know, because they all think they deserve it. And I was like, no, no, no, no. This is no, this was supposed to go to. I know who this is supposed to go to as a surprise. I know who this is supposed to, it's not supposed to go to me. It's supposed to go to them.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Well, Pat and I, I think we're, you know, both there, and we both feel the same way that you didn't deserve it either. So we are, we stand with you. Now I think I deserve it on that one. That a beautiful. Yeah, it's very cool. Who's the. Favili.
Starting point is 00:29:01 This is the guy. This is one of the, the, the, the, the, the, uh, Disney artists. Oh. Oh. Did that designed it? Yeah, designed it. It is a, Absolutely beautiful, beautiful award.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Yeah. I thought it was going to be Bonhofer, you know. It was, but that's not Bonhoeff. No, it's an angel. Yeah. It's an angel. Okay. Yeah, because it's Bonhofer's angel or something, right?
Starting point is 00:29:23 No. The Bonhofer's Angel Award. It's like Charlie's Angels, but it was less popular. All right. All right. All right. Okay. No.
Starting point is 00:29:35 It was not nearly as sexy. No, it's not. No. I wish we would have known that Al-Baghdetti was being killed as we were raising money to help the people. You know, we had an operative in, didn't we announce from the stage, I kind of lost track of everything, but I think it was announced from stage that there was a rescue mission that was happening during the event. And we rescued another group of people that had been kept slaves. during that event on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:30:13 But what did you think of al-Baghdadi? It wasn't the toughest decision in 500 years. No, it was the second toughest because the toughest was Osama. It was actually, they're actually calling it the third toughest decision in the last 500 years. Really? Number one was Osama bin Laden. Yeah. Number two was extending daylight savings time another month.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Really? Wow. It's kind of weird. Wow. Yeah. And then El Baghdaddy was third after that. Now, I thought, I had heard, I had heard, I didn't know about the second place, but I had heard third was actually, so it may have moved this into fourth. I had heard the third was actually when Barack Obama last year decided to stop using Johnson and Johnson no more tears shampoo.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's a hard decision too. It's very hard. It gets in your eyes and it causes you cry. And when you stop using it, yeah, then you do start crying when your shampoo.
Starting point is 00:31:07 It's not good. It's not good. Not good. It is not. But I heard he had to switch to head and shoulders. Because at some point you've got enough dandruff. Right. But apparently you don't have enough money.
Starting point is 00:31:20 No, that's. You never have enough money. Never have enough money. Some points you have too big of a house. Really? Because it doesn't seem like that. You just bought a $15 million house. Strangely on an island when you're telling us that within 10 years,
Starting point is 00:31:33 all the islands are going to be underwater. Yes. Which is weird. That's a weird. investment. Very weird. Very weird investment. The actions versus words thing on global warming is fascinating among rich liberals, isn't it? Yeah. I mean, like you just go down and you see, okay, you look at the coastline of Miami and southern Florida, which is just littered with beautiful homes built nine inches away from the ocean. And they just continually tell us that this,
Starting point is 00:32:02 this torturous ocean level rise is going to wipe out city after city. city after city Al Gore has maps where they're animated and there's water all over Florida. They keep investing millions and millions of their own dollars. And he bought in Malibu right out of cliff. Now, hang on just a second. Not necessarily millions of millions of their own dollars. Yes, they buy the house. But they know that if anything happens to that house because of weather,
Starting point is 00:32:27 it is the average person that is paying the taxes that actually pay for their insurance. The flood insurance. This is one of the first things I would get rid of and it would not be popular. It would not be popular. But if I were president, one of the first things I would do, well, I mean, maybe on day seven, maybe on day seven. There's a lot of other things probably bigger than this. But stop guaranteeing insurance for the big houses in Malibu and in Miami and all up and down the coastline. You know.
Starting point is 00:33:01 You can subsidize rich people's homes is essentially what we do. That's exactly what it is. And you feel bad in some places like in Houston. Those were not necessarily, you know, expensive homes. They were homes in low-lying areas. But, you know, the idea is you shouldn't build in a low-lying area because you couldn't get the insurance. And so we never did.
Starting point is 00:33:24 Like the homes in Houston are miles and miles inland. Yeah. You know, they're not built right on the beach. Correct. Correct. They're built 100 miles inland. Correct. And being flooded.
Starting point is 00:33:35 That's a big difference. If you couldn't get insurance through any kind of regular insurance, you shouldn't build a house there. Now, if it is like a 100-year flood, that's fine. That's fine. 100-year flood, that's fine. Those are the type of things, too, that insurance companies will insure. Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 00:33:57 It becomes too expensive when these houses are getting flooded constantly. Right. If it's an annual floodplain, that's a little different thing. a 500-year floodplain. Right. You don't. You don't build things there. And we are paying for every large mansion. I'll bet
Starting point is 00:34:15 you Marlago has that insurance. Has government insurance. It has to. Yeah. And that's the thing. It's not necessarily... Look, there's a lot of people who built homes in these areas with the understanding they were going to be able to get this insurance. And that's one
Starting point is 00:34:31 thing. But the continuation of that policy is just incentive people to do it more often, which is why the hurricanes, when they come, cost so much more than they did years ago, because there's so many more expensive structures right on the water. I was just, I just saw an article about a place in South Carolina that was completely wiped out. I forget which hurricane it was. It was like a hurricane 20 years ago that completely wiped out the area and then destroyed every home in there.
Starting point is 00:34:59 So what they do? They built right back up. In fact, closer to the shore. bigger homes closer to the shore. It should not happen. It's ridiculous. If you live in a place like that that has been wiped out over and over again, we should end the federal insurance by saying this, look, we'll pay you for the home right now.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Your home has been wiped out, great, but you cannot rebuild here. You can rebuild if you want, but we're not. never going to cover this insurance ever again ever go build your home someplace else part of it it's just like you know the american spirit of being like we got knocked down we're going to build it up again right never going to we are chumba wumba yeah it was it was going to chumba wamba wow we're quoting songs from chumba wumba all right thank you very thank you very much oof uh all right I have cracked the code of sleep.

Starting point is 00:37:56 Welcome to the program. Glad you're here. Let me go to Mary in Ohio. Hello, Mary. Mary, are you there? Yes, I'm here. I'm sorry. Hi.
Starting point is 00:38:05 That's all right. Go ahead. Hi. I just wanted a couple things. First of all, you said that Al-Baghdadi died like a dog. Well, I think that's an insult to dogs in actuality. I'd like a sewer rat in a tunnel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Dog is one of the heroes in this along with special forces. Yeah. President Trump. And I will say neither dogs nor sewer rats blow themselves up with vests and kill three children. So it should be a really, even sewer rats are being talked down to here. Yeah, that's true. I agree with that.
Starting point is 00:38:31 But now the real reason for my call is that I believe that the ISIS members are paid mercenaries by the deep state. And I feel that the deep state was created basically by the global network of people. It's Democrats. It's Republicans. It's not all of them, obviously. But the deep state members are a global network. And they've created and fostered ISIS.
Starting point is 00:38:54 And I also think that... Now, where do you get this idea? Just by paying attention and reading a lot of sources. And I have a feeling that's what you're going to touch on on Wednesday. Is that right? We're going to touch on it. We're going to prove it in three weeks. Yep.
Starting point is 00:39:14 It is terrifying what the State Department is involved in now. with the authorization from Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. It is absolutely terrifying what is going on. And America needs to know about it and really understand it. And it's got to move from the, well, this is just a conspiracy to reality. And we can show you what has been happening. We have videotape. we have many of the documents, many of the players.
Starting point is 00:39:59 We don't have the founding document because it's classified, but we would sure like to see in the next couple of weeks the president declassify this. And if we can't get it done before the special, we would urge you to join us on this. And we'll talk about it more in the upcoming weeks. But you're right, Mary. And, you know, everybody knows this. You've just might have forgotten it.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Whose idea was it to destabilize Syria? Whose idea was that? That was Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and a few others. And when Mary said, well, it's the deep state, including the Republicans, she is right again. Who was it that went over and was taking? pictures with these guys and verifying that, no, no, no, these are good guys we can trust. It was John McCain.
Starting point is 00:41:03 They are heating and shaping the world closer to their heart's desire, and we are going to prove it to you. Don't miss our second special in the trilogy. We didn't know it would be a trilogy, but once we found this out, there's so much to tell, and we want to make sure we get it right. There will be another special after this one. You'll be able to watch it on YouTube. and on the Blaze.
Starting point is 00:41:27 So make sure that you are a member of the Blaze at blazetv.com slash Glenn. BlazTV.com slash Glenn. You don't want to miss part two of Ukraine explained the real scandal. You're listening to Glenn Beck. It seems to me like the new buzz. Boy, I would be really interested in that Miley Cyrus story
Starting point is 00:42:02 if I cared about Miley Cyrus. wouldn't you do? Is that a requirement? Because I can't call that far either. Yeah. Just can't go that far. Although it is just another,
Starting point is 00:42:15 oh, these people. But that's what they're saying about Kanye now. They're saying that Kanye is not really. He hasn't really. This is just a... It's just an act. An act? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:42:28 I think it's real. I mean, you know, I hesitate to get too excited about things that Kanye West says. What? However, I mean, on the other hand, I mean, you could certainly make the argument that, you know, look, people are, do some crazy things in their lives and if they wind up doing good things later on, great. All right. Okay. You know, you've got to let the hip-hop master talk here for a little while.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I don't feel comfortable with you describing yourself. Because I've got a rap session here. A rap session? Yeah, that's going to happen. Well, just in a few seconds. We're going to start our rap session with a. Oh, I don't think that's a good a hip-hop master. Yeah, no, we've got some rap news for you.
Starting point is 00:43:09 News from the world of rap? Yes, yes. News from the world of rap. Well, that screams Glenn Beck, so let's do it. Right, right. Coming up. Hey, Holmes. It's me, your rapmaster daddy to talk to you about some rap news.
Starting point is 00:43:50 News from the world of rap. That's Glenn Beck Central right there. I know. Now listen, I know that I am so far ahead of, you know, the average Joe in the rap world. In the rap world. But I'm going to, I'm going to try to slow it down. It just rolls off your tongue all this. Some of my hip-hop, you know, master talks that I've given in the past, I'm going to slow them down for you. Uh, so you can understand them as I speak to the.
Starting point is 00:44:26 streets in one minute. We're doomed. All right. What are you doing when there's so much pain that you can't do the things around the house? You can't do the things you have to do, let alone the things you want to do, when you can't sleep half the night. That was the situation that Dawn found herself in. She's a hairstylist for 25 years, and she developed and was constantly dealing with pain
Starting point is 00:44:56 in her hands and her feet in her back, and she was desperate. for anything to take the pain away. Then she heard about relief factor and within a few weeks of taking it all of her pain, every bit of it, quoting her, every bit of it was gone. She says that the longer she took relief factor, the better she feels.
Starting point is 00:45:14 And it worked for her and it could work for you. When it's taken properly, what it does is it attacks the inflammation that causes much of our pain and it works in 70% of us who try it and take it. Costs 1999 to start with their three-week quick trial.
Starting point is 00:45:29 If you want a drug-free, natural way to ease your pain and get your life back like Dawn did, like I have, go to relieffactor.com. That's relieffactor.com. All right. We are in the danger zone. As I give you word from the streets to your mother. Please don't do that again. Does it make you feel uncomfortable? A little bit?
Starting point is 00:46:01 All right. Let's get jiggy with it. And talk about a couple of items in the rap world. First of all, what? No, no, you're doing a very good and convincing job as a major reporter in the world of rap. On Saturday night, rapper YG, as he's known. I call him just why. I listen to him and people will say, what's that?
Starting point is 00:46:36 and I'll say, no, the question is, why? Are you sure it's not pronounced? G. Nope. Okay. You're not sure. Okay. I just want to make sure.
Starting point is 00:46:50 All right. So, at a concert with YG on Saturday, he noticed that a fan was not singing along to his very popular anti-Trump anthem, which is so super, super clever, F. Donald Trump. So he... Do you want to go through any of the lyrics? I don't think he goes much deeper than F. Donald Trump. Okay. So let's see if they had any really...
Starting point is 00:47:21 Maybe they had some information on the Russian investigation enclosed in the rap that we need to look into. No. No? No. So he invited the less than enthusiastic fan in the... crowd who might have, because we all do, might have loved all of the other super, super classics from YG but just didn't
Starting point is 00:47:45 like this particular song. So he invites him... It's so sad. Yeah, it is. So he invites him up on stage and do we have the audio and video here? Here it is. I spotted you out in the crowd. I asked you if you're f***ed down to try and say
Starting point is 00:48:02 you don't know. So since you don't know, I need you to make up your mind tonight. I need you to say your name. I want you to state your name because I know your mama, your daddy, your grandmama, your grandfather is watching. I want you to state your name and yell out Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Look at this. No, you want. This is a brave kid. Get his s out of here. Get him his dog up his name. And pushes him. Pushes him off stage. Don't come to a mother
Starting point is 00:48:33 effing show with YG on the mother effin' bill. If you a Donald Trump supporter, the rapper continued, F are you doing? Don't let this A back in the crowd. Tell him why G said so.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Donald Trump's racist. He don't F with black people. So if you F with Donald Trump, you racist as F, and I can F, with you period. Almost poetry. It's beautifully.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Especially the way you deliver it. Thank you. Thank you. Well, I am all up with rap. To be fair, you're from the streets. I grew up in the streets. I was there at the birth of rap. Well, just the screaming part of the birth of rap.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Yes, yes. You know, that part of rap. That's an interesting line. I don't think rappers would enjoy the economic. of rap without white suburban kids who might support Donald Trump. That's not an economic picture you want to necessarily go into. Because you're going to find there's a lot of white suburban kids. Yeah, but you don't realize that YG is an artist.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Oh, so he doesn't care about the economics of it? No. Because I saw it as a pan to the right. I saw an American apparel sign on stage. No. Which I thought it seemed like he might care about economics. No. he doesn't he doesn't care
Starting point is 00:50:09 because I remember a time you know as I'm not an historian of rap as you are as I am but I do remember a time in which one of the common attacks on other artists was that they were sellouts right like that they're selling out to just corporate interests they're not actually artists
Starting point is 00:50:26 they're just trying to make money and like for example if you had a giant American apparel sign on stage with you while you were rapping that might have been a sellout no but that's not the way it is now no not on the the streets, not in
Starting point is 00:50:39 duh hood. I'll tell you this. No white people ever have shopped at American Apparel before. I'll tell you that right now. Definitely not. Only, only Trump haters have gone to American Apparel. Now, would you like more from the
Starting point is 00:50:54 the rap world? I feel so educated right now after hearing this segment that I do need more. Okay, well, you know, Kanye. Yes, and I call him K. you do and
Starting point is 00:51:11 Kanye is he's got a new album out he does yeah Jesus is king and he said he would not sleep until this album was out
Starting point is 00:51:25 and so that was 16 months ago he said that and Friday a very very tired Kanye West put out Jesus is king now
Starting point is 00:51:36 I just say I mean a remarkable cultural development in a lot of ways. I mean, I know I don't care about Kanye West's music. I know you're the rap aficionado here on this program. I don't care at all about what he raps about generally. But, I mean, the idea that Kanye West,
Starting point is 00:51:54 go back a few years, think about him standing with a terrified Mike Myers on a telethon saying George W. Bush doesn't care about black people. Terrified. To the point where he is now not only embracing Donald Trump, which is remarkable in it of itself,
Starting point is 00:52:08 but now releasing what seems to be like a legitimate gospel album. It's not even, it's not like a, you know, I mean, he's been calling himself the king for how long, now Jesus is king. And it's coming out and it is a remarkable development. And I hope. I hope it's sincere. It does seem sincere.
Starting point is 00:52:27 It does. And I just, I hope it's not like, well, like somebody standing on stage with American apparel, you know, that logo right next to them. Anyway, closed on Sunday,
Starting point is 00:52:43 You're My Chick-Fillet. Hold the selfies. Put the gram away. Get your family. Y'all hold hands and pray. The lyrics, of course, from You're My Chick-fil-A. That's interesting because I almost thought you were playing the song.
Starting point is 00:53:03 That was such a convincing Kanye. But that was you reading it. When you got daughters, always keep them safe. Watch out for vipers. Don't let them indoctrinate. Closed on Sunday, you, my chick-fil-A, you're number one with the lemonade. Raise our sons, train them in the faith.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Through temptations, make sure they're wide awake. Follow Jesus, listen and obey. No more living for the culture. We nobody's slave. Mm. Closed on Sunday. You, my Chick-fil-A. Wow.
Starting point is 00:53:44 That's beautiful, Glenn, the way you did that. Thank you. Of all the things to praise at Chick-fil-A, I feel like lemonade is a strange choice. It would not be the first thing I would think of when you think of a Chick-fil-A. Can I ask you where the rhyme is in that one? When you got daughters always keep them safe, watch out for vipers, don't let them indoctrinate.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Closed on Sunday, you, my Chick-fil-A. You're my number one. with the lemonade. Doesn't really. Filet lemonade? I think that's what he's going for here. Closed on Sunday, you my chick filet. You're my number one with the lemonade.
Starting point is 00:54:22 Right. Right. Okay. Now, I don't know. I will say you are an officianto in the world of rap. I'm more of an iconic hero in the rap world. In the rap world. You come from the streets.
Starting point is 00:54:34 We know that. I've been told by people who, who have more insight in rap quality that Kanye not necessarily known for his wrapping as much as his producing. So his wrapping, when he's doing the actual wrapping of the words, is not necessarily a strong suit. Is Christmas known for its wrapping?
Starting point is 00:54:58 No. It's the gift inside that counts. And you know what that rhymes with? Lemonade. I'm pretty sure. I think we're done here. News from the world of rap. We didn't even get to the audio of Kanye.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Talking about... There's more news from the world of rap. More news in this time with Steve McGear. Car shield. You know that part under the hood of your car? Yeah, there's a bunch of stuff under there. I was trying to... Right.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Right. It's like greasy and stuff. I don't know. It's all connected. Yeah, I had to... I was looking for one of the... one of the, I don't know, some filter or something I was supposed to look for. And I legitimately, even with YouTube, cannot figure out where it is in this car.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Like, I, it's an older car. Yeah. And any person with any sense can find it. And I cannot find it. So my, my, I don't think it's there. My wife. That might, but why the car is not running. My wife found it's very good.
Starting point is 00:55:54 Right. My wife found my son and I underneath a truck. Uh, we were, we were laying there. And I was like, let me show you, let me show you what's underneath this truck. So we lay down there. And it was really just an excuse to stop working. She came out and she's like, what are you guys doing? I said, I'm teaching the boy about Dindgens.
Starting point is 00:56:14 She's like, you don't know anything about it. We were there talking about, you know, Netflix shows. Right. That's brilliant. I got underneath it. I'm like, I don't know anything except the exhaust pipe and the muffler, which I think is connected to the exhaust pipe, but I'm not sure. Anyway, when did men stop doing this?
Starting point is 00:56:35 I'm just, I'm hearing a little voice in my head. They didn't. You shouldn't have asked that question. It's just you and stew. Anyway, I know that cars are almost impossible to fix now because you have to have the computer to be able to show you what's wrong and just a stupid little chip can cost you thousands of dollars.
Starting point is 00:56:58 You have to have the right coverage, the right coverage before your car goes to the big junkyard in the sky.

We break for 10 seconds, station ID. For news, from the world of rap with Mr. Stephen Breger.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Thank you, Glenn. So here is Kanye talking about, and he was talking on a network. I know you're very familiar with, Glenn, Big Boy TV. Oh, yeah. For many reasons. I don't look like a big boy? There you go. Yeah, but wear big boy pants.
Starting point is 00:58:13 Reason number one, you are a big boy yourself, but also just you're intertwined. You're almost inseparable from any rap based story. Sometimes I'm hanging with all of my favorite rap stars who will remain unnamed right now for various reasons. And people, they don't even, they can't, they're like, which one is there a Glenn here? And I'll be like, yo, yo, yo dog over here. So anyway, go ahead. how you usually do it. Here is Kanye talking about how African-American voters have potentially been manipulated
Starting point is 00:58:51 over the years. Shut up. Here's what Kanye has to say. They were fighting for us to have the right to our opinion, not the right to vote for whoever the white liberals said black people are supposed to vote for. You get what I'm saying? Then James Gordon went in and said, well, this president, You're Christian and this president.
Starting point is 00:59:14 I don't see anything Christian about them. I said, okay, so last year, y'all tried to tell me who I'm supposed to vote for because I'm black. Now, this year, white liberals trying to tell me who I'm supposed to vote for because I'm Christian. That would be like I live in Calabasas, so everyone in my car has got to be a convertible, huh? It's just all based on your vision of what I'm supposed to do. And I understand, like, a lot of people, it's not a matter of whether you like it or who like it. We are in a country where we are allowed to like whatever we like. World is a vision.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Kanye becomes the voice of reason. He goes on to talk about how abortion is killing black communities, how that's being pushed on black communities by white liberals. You know, I have to tell you, I think the most fascinating people on earth right now are the ones who are breaking the mold in their own. own in their own tribe. I think that's true.
Starting point is 01:00:23 You know, I always think of that as when I read people, when I, when I listen to a podcast, when I'm looking for someone who's going to actually tell me about the news or something interesting, if I know what they're going to say word for word before I start, why am I going there? Isn't it much more interesting for, I'm going to say something really dangerous? Oh, no. But we are in the world of rap. So we need, Sarah, we need some sort of rap, you know, music when I say that.
Starting point is 01:00:54 No, please don't. Do not listen to that request, Sarah. Oh, yeah. I think we need to. So anyway, the, the, I don't want to support Donald Trump because I don't like things about him personally. I don't want to be the guy defending Donald Trump because he's a rat. when he's like, you know, it's like, don't, don't, please don't say it. No, Mr. President, please don't say it. But you have to if you're going to be honest, if you see other things. For instance, I don't know if he's a good guy in this impeachment.
Starting point is 01:01:36 I don't know what he's done. I've done my homework and I can't find anything, but that doesn't mean we're not going to. But I don't want to be the guy leading the, we strangely are, eating this the way going, wait a minute, this isn't what happened. This is what happened over here. That doesn't make me, it makes me feel like because we live in a place to where it's all black and white, where Kanye, he is all Donald Trump. Well, he seems to be very Donald Trump. He's wearing the Trump, you know, hat and everything else.
Starting point is 01:02:17 But that's not really what he says. What he is saying is saying is, if you're not for Donald Trump, you cannot be for Donald Trump. If you are for Donald Trump, be for Donald Trump. If you're kind of halfway in between, be halfway in between. But we don't listen to each other. Like I would never have had a problem being for Donald Trump 20 years ago if this, if the culture was the same as it was 20 years ago. Because 20 years ago, think about this, this is at the beginning of George Bush. You know, George Bush, you could say, and we did.
Starting point is 01:02:50 I'm for this. I'm really not for that. But now, left and right, if you are for a few things, or if you want to say Donald Trump didn't do this, this impeachment is garbage. You can't, you, you are automatically for all of his tweets and all of the things that he does that are pigish. No, I'm just telling you,
Starting point is 01:03:19 you can not like that, but that doesn't mean you have to be for this because this is wrong. When did we stop being able to see and balance things? When did we stop seeing grays? When did we stop seeing things and go, wait a minute, I like this, but I don't like this. I mean, every Christian, almost every Christian picks and chooses around the Bible. well I'm not going to do that that didn't really mean that no sleeping together before marriage
Starting point is 01:03:54 but I'm a deep Christian when do they you can pick and choose around the words that are there in black, white and red you can pick and choose around those but you can't pick and choose around things behind a candidate this doesn't make sense
Starting point is 01:04:10 there's we're now at a time where you need to kind of prove every once in a while that you're actually thinking about the things you're talking about. Because you listen to some of these people, and this is on both sides. You know, you see it continually on the left, though. We should go through some of the headlines over the past few years. Oh, the Katie Hill thing. It just doesn't matter. You know exactly what they're going to say about every freaking story before it even starts. That bores the hell out of me. I mean, I look, it's not real. That's why it's not only boring. It's not reality. It's just not
Starting point is 01:04:43 reality. All right. Back in a second with more rap. No, no more rap. And the zombie campaign of Joe Biden. You ever have days when you feel spineless? I mean, not like you're cowardly, but I mean, not like everybody in the media.

Starting point is 01:06:14 A big special this week. The media's narratives about Ukraine. What's true and what isn't? You know, when the president went out last night to game five, is this the world series? Yes, good sports knowledge. You're almost as knowledgeable about sports as you are as rap. You know, I mean, you're that close.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Sports with Glenn Beck. Boy, this has been a bad hour. This is not the big show. I'll tell you that. This is a pre-big show maybe. Pre-pray. I think Wednesday's probably the pre-pre. Wednesday's the big show.
Starting point is 01:07:12 show this week. Then Monday is the pre-pre So don't expect a lot. This is just getting you warmed up. This is like revving your engines a little bit, a little pre-gaming. So here we have the president arriving at the Nationals versus the Astros World Series. Now I think yesterday was the day the president probably thought, hey, I can go outside and be in a crowd because we just killed Al-Baghdadi. Right. Big day. And so it's a big day because I remember saying, hey, you know what?
Starting point is 01:07:42 Barack Obama, he didn't kill him, but he did give the order to kill Osama bin Laden. It's a good day for Barack Obama. I think without question the best day of his presidency. I think so, too. It was a president for eight years. I can give you seven years and 364 days that sucked. But that was a pretty good day. That was a good day.
Starting point is 01:08:01 So I think the president was probably thinking, hey, I can go, listen to the crowd reacting when he comes into the stadium. You weren't supposed to say that about presidents. I was told very clearly that it's a horrible. sign for humanity if you were to cheer lock them up towards a candidate. Apparently that's gone. That has been abandoned. That policy is no longer
Starting point is 01:08:28 in effect. That's that's incredible that happened. Now, not a surprise. You know, in Washington, D.C., 95% I think are Democrats. We had to say, I think it was, I know 5% were Republican. Yeah, 5%.
Starting point is 01:08:44 But I think there's other, like, non, I will say non-denominational, but independents. Yeah. Well, non-denominational works now. It does? Yeah. Don't you think the Democratic Party is absolutely a religion? Washington, D.C. voter breakdown. 75.6% Democrat, 5.9% Republican.
Starting point is 01:09:05 So, I mean, look. Yeah. And that doesn't mean everybody there is from D.C. exactly. But you wouldn't expect a Washington, D.C. audience to necessarily react positively to Donald Trump. Though I will say, you know, go back to the day. of Barack Obama. I can tell you exactly what I did on the air, which was drink a beer to celebrate Osama bin Laden
Starting point is 01:09:25 being dead on the air. That is certainly not just an excuse to drink on the job. That was because I was... Oh, it was not. I was celebrating. To drink and forget, nope. No. No, it was, in reality, it was the best day of his presidency. It was.
Starting point is 01:09:39 It wasn't just him. And we didn't know that it was the hardest decision in 500 years until a few days later. Yeah, it was when... Then we torched him. But that was just because, that was because, I know, hardest decision of 500 years. This is just Joe Biden being the typical Joe Biden that he is. But, you know, looking back at it, you can certainly make it into something that it is not,
Starting point is 01:10:04 which was, it was not a difficult decision at all. No. In fact, everybody whose life was actually on the line in the mission would tell you, wait, is there a 1% chance we can get Osama bin Laden and then let's go. fire up the helicopters, let's go. Because that's what those guys were there for. We've talked to how many of them over the years that said we would have done anything to go in there
Starting point is 01:10:25 and get a shot at them. We have talked to the guys who were on that mission to kill Osama bin Laden. And, you know, what we didn't know at the time was Barack Obama made it almost impossible. If anything goes wrong with your helicopter, good luck, because we're not coming in to rescue you. And we know now that there was a very long delay
Starting point is 01:10:44 from the initial indication. I think it was six months. I think it was six months. I mean. But anyway, I still don't think he handled it well, but still on that day, you're happy. Right. We gave him, hey, thank you for killing this really bad guy. Now, some people will say that al-Baghdadi is not Osama bin Laden.
Starting point is 01:11:03 Well, yes, Jar-Jar Binks is not Darth Vader. But when you kill Jar-Jar Binks, it's still a very good day. It's true. Poor Jar-jar. Yeah, well, he was even on the same side as Darth Vader. Oh, he wasn't. He was against him. I guess he was, though, then, right?
Starting point is 01:11:23 Because Darth wasn't Darth yet. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, God, spoiler alert. Oh, my God. Oh, my gosh. I'm sorry. You know, I know, I've never seen the end of the third one. The end of the episode three?
Starting point is 01:11:35 Yeah, I never have seen the end of it. You never heard him go, no. No, everybody jokes about that, and I've never made it there. It is so painful. but episode nine is about to come out now you can get your tickets now okay so episode nine here's my theory here's my theory
Starting point is 01:11:51 because this is not where we're going with this but go ahead give me this Star Wars theory before we get to the Trump stuff right here's my theory she's going to go neither bad nor good they're going to form their own little new little thing they're gonna
Starting point is 01:12:07 they're gonna say that both sides were bad they're gonna go third party they're gonna go third party they're gonna go independent they're going to go Gary Johnson Gary Johnson is going to show up at the very end and he'd be like
Starting point is 01:12:21 Yeah let the pot be with you man And that's what it's got to say I don't even know where tattooing is Right That's how it ends That's how it ends So it's not It would be like the
Starting point is 01:12:33 The dusk side Is that it's not the light Not the dark side It's kind of in between It's kind of the gray side Yeah You know it's kind of like I don't know
Starting point is 01:12:43 Sometimes I got to do what we got to do. I kind of want an ultimate victory here. Do you? For the good guys, right? That's how this is a mission. Well, it would be, but I think we're kind of in that place to like, ah, sometimes we've got to kill and torture people.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Sometimes we don't. So I think that, what's her name? She'll be like, oh, we got to torture that person? Ghost playing him to Egypt. You should not write this. Really? Yeah, no, this is not. I think that's what's coming because I think that's where,
Starting point is 01:13:15 Hollywood thinks America is just like, hey, sometimes we've got to do some stuff. It's not where I'm at. I kind of like, you know, I kind of like the good being good and the evil being evil. I kind of like that. I think that's better. I think you should stick to writing rap rather than writing
Starting point is 01:13:31 Star Wars movies. But that's just just my opinion. You, my chick fillet. Lemonade. Lemonade. We could also have you on the job of writing headlines for the media because this is a difficult gig. You've got to understand. You got to come up with creative new ideas every single day.
Starting point is 01:13:48 Yeah. It's really hard. I don't think it's as hard as some people think it is. Really? I mean, let's go through some of the headlines. This is Beckett Adams posted these. It's amazing. June 2016.
Starting point is 01:14:00 The beginning of Trump's end. June 2016, the beginning of the end for Trump? That was a question mark at the end of that one. See the difference? You see the subtle difference there? I do. I do. August 2016, will Trump's attack on the cons? be the beginning of the end for his White House hopes.
Starting point is 01:14:19 October 2016, is this the beginning of the end of Donald Trump? Again, it's a question. Who knows? February 2017, this is the beginning of the end for Donald Trump. February 2017, is General Flynn, a sacrificial lamb, or the beginning of the end for Donald Trump? See, again, a statement? I don't know. March 2017, in the White House things are looking bad.
Starting point is 01:14:44 this could be the beginning of the end for Trump. Statement. Next one's got to be a question. If CNN's new Russia report is true, we may be seeing the beginning of the end of Donald Trump's presidency. Wow. The beginning of the end. May 2017. Is it the beginning of the end for Trump?
Starting point is 01:15:01 Even elected Democrats can feel it. Oh, if Democrats are going to say it, well, then you got to believe it. They're such credible. What did Nancy Pelosi say? Was she out there now saying on the, you know, I used. used to be on the Trump train, but now I question it. February 2018, John Dean warns Gates' testimony may be the end of Trump's presidency. I don't even remember Gates' testimony.
Starting point is 01:15:28 That's how many things have happened. March 2018, is this the beginning of Trump's end? See, that's totally different. The end of Trump. Or the beginning of the end of Trump. This is the beginning of Trump's end. Okay? You notice the subtle difference.
Starting point is 01:15:43 April 2018, Michael Cohen and the end stage of the Trump presidency. August 2018, the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency. August 2018, Donald Trump may have finally reached the beginning of the end. Well, at least they're recognizing it. We've been printing these stories for two damn years. He may have finally reached it. November 2018, the end of Trump. Now we're just like stating it.
Starting point is 01:16:10 No, December 2018, Trump's latest meltdown shows, Even he knows. This could be the beginning of the end. It could be. It could be. Even he knows. Nancy Pelosi's known for a long time, but even he knows it could be. Yeah, I love that because we have to recognize here all the qualifying parts of this.
Starting point is 01:16:29 Like, it's not the end. It's the beginning of the end. And it could be the beginning of the end. And Trump, even he might know that it could be the beginning of the end. So, you know, it's amazing about that, though, when you think about it, is they can't even agree on the beginning. No. It's not like the beginning of the end happened and all of these things are happening now. So we're at the middle of the beginning of the end.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Right. No. It's just the big. We're still, they're like, forget about that beginning. Yes. Because that didn't work out. This one is the beginning. They keep changing the beginning.
Starting point is 01:17:01 We're not even in the middle. No. Every time it fails and they're like, yes, but this one. Right. Did you see his caloric intake? How about January of 2019? This looks like the beginning of the end for Trump or September 2019.
Starting point is 01:17:17 Could this impeachment inquiry be the end of Trump's presidency? The good thing about this is sometime before January 2025, they're going to nail this. They're going to be right. They're going to have it. As he's on the stairs waving goodbye, they'll say,
Starting point is 01:17:33 could this be the end of Donald Trump? And they will be wrong yet again. Yes. That's true. All right, here's something fun. Researchers have now discovered that a smart speaker, speakers are smart now. I don't even know what the hell I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:17:55 Researchers have now discovered that there's a popular smart speaker. You know, like a smart car, smart phone. Wi-Fi. Yeah, the whole thing when they're all connected. Everything's connected. It's the Internet of Things. Internet of Things. A key reinstallement attack or crack.
Starting point is 01:18:10 Wait a minute. now your speakers can be attacked, the hacker would have the ability to view and control and control traffic across a standard Wi-Fi network through your speaker. What? People are too smart. They should apply their resources to just normal jobs. These criminals would be really much more wealthy than they are.

All right. Coming up, the zombie campaign of Joe Biden, you don't want to miss that. And he looked like a zombie on television this weekend. It's kind of his normal look now.
Starting point is 01:19:52 A little bit closer to the crypt than, you know, he looks like maybe a character from a former HBO series. But he was on 60 Minutes. And one of the most inexplicable things of this campaign to me is that Barack Obama has not endorsed Joe Biden. and you know you think about this we talk about this as everyone wants to think about their vote as being super important like who are you going to vote for are you going to vote for
Starting point is 01:20:18 and we talk about it incessantly and the truth is there's almost no chance that your vote is going to make the difference we all do it because we think it's part of our responsibility as citizens we all do it because it's important but in reality it's not probably going to be the difference well that's not true for Barack Obama who has a vote by himself to singular
Starting point is 01:20:39 choose who could be the next president if he were to step down or something were to happen to him. Of all the people in the United States of America, this man chose Joe Biden as the most qualified person to be president behind him. That is what your job is as president. To name the person that if God forbid you leave the office for some reason. That's not what happens. I mean, John Kennedy named Lyndon Johnson. They needed the vote. And I think the same thing with Joe Biden's vote. Joe Biden was not even a figure. Labor unions. He was barely even a figure in that election. Remember, he's getting one and
Starting point is 01:21:14 two percent at that point. Labor unions. Right. Yeah, no, there's other candidates you could have had for that. Look, they picked Biden for multiple reasons, not just because of this, but you are making a statement, right? You are choosing the guy you believe is most qualified. And he's not
Starting point is 01:21:30 endorsing him. Why? He's a one-person election? You can just come out and say, look, Joe Biden, obviously, I served with the guy for eight years. He's the guy who should be the nominee, obviously. Well, instead of this, he's just, he is not endorsed. And that's not because he doesn't want to endorse Joe. It's because Joe asked him not to endorse.
Starting point is 01:21:51 I love this. I mean, how is he saying this with a straight face? Here's Biden talking about the Obama endorsement. We need somebody who on day one knows exactly what to do, can command the world stage. No one wonders whether I know a great deal about these issues and foreign policy and domestic policy, the things I've done. Some of us, why hasn't President Obama endorsed you? You guys served together for eight years.
Starting point is 01:22:14 Because I have to earn, I want to earn this on my own. Did he offer to endorse you? No, we didn't even get there. I asked them not to me. He said, okay. I think he thinks it's better. I think he thinks it's better for me. You know, I remember because I was just riddled with problems.
Starting point is 01:22:31 And Jesus came to me and said, I can take away all your sins. And I said, no, I want to earn this. I want to earn this. And he said, you're not going to be able to do that, dude. And I said, no, no, I don't want you to. No, uh-uh,
Starting point is 01:22:45 I want to earn this. I mean, that's as crazy as what he just said. Yeah. Joe. No. Of course. Of course. It's fascinating because the Democratic Party has largely acted as if they've turned
Starting point is 01:23:02 against Obama. The people in the party are still, he's still got like a 95% approval rating. Barack Obama among Democrats. But they continually come out and criticize his presidency because Joe Biden's so closely associated with it. But this is a big thing. Biden's been the only person who stood up for Obama in these debates.
Starting point is 01:23:20 Everyone else has been trashing the guy. He's out there standing up for him. He's saying, you know, look, I think it was, I think Obamacare worked, right? Like, he's the only person saying these things. Yet Barack Obama, I swear he must know something about Biden. Maybe it's the corruption. Maybe it's incompetence. Maybe he went sleepy sleep in a lot of the meetings.
Starting point is 01:23:40 Whatever it is, there's a reason why he's not endorsing Joe Biden. No, no, they're good friends. They're good friends. Really? Yeah, they're good friends. They almost never see each other or talk, but they're very, very close. And it's only because Joseph's don't call me. I'm too busy.
Starting point is 01:23:56 Please don't be seen with me. So we took our ARs out and we were shooting on Friday. I shot with some Navy SEALs and, uh, wow, are they good? as they probably should be. But sorry Beto. We were just shooting AR-15s because we want to and we own them. But that's a different story. One of the shooters really banged up and her shoulder was killing her.
Starting point is 01:24:38 And I thought, may I recommend relief factor? Relief factor for people who just have... have had it with pain, and you don't want to take narcotics to kill that pain, because it doesn't kill it. It just makes you care less. So relief factor actually kills the pain because it reduces the inflammation that causes most of our pain, and it works for 70% of the people who try it. So please, just call 800, 500,883-84, 800-584, created by doctors. You can start for 1995 with her quick start. Just try it for three weeks.
Starting point is 01:25:16 Take his directed and see if you don't get your life back. I have. Relieffactor.com. That's relieffactor.com. Boy, I don't think the press wants Joe Biden to win. You have from New York Magazine, the zombie campaign of Joe Biden. Also, Yahoo.
Starting point is 01:26:05 Being the frontrunner, takes its toll. Joe Biden, more disliked now than Bernie Suss. Sanders. And I have to start with some just incredible audio from Beto O'R. Who just learned that ARs could be used for hunting. He had never heard that before. Uh-huh. Is the Glimbeck program. Uh-huh. In one minute. Have you seen the app that you put on your phone that will tell you how many hours of screen time you have every day?

And, you know, he's the guy who said, hell, yes, we're going to take your A.R. 15s.
Starting point is 01:28:04 Is they letting Biden in high schools now? I'm sorry, not Biden. Beto O'Rourke. Oh, okay. So Beto O'Rourke is in high schools. And my high school students, excuse me, you've said, hell yes, I'm going to take your AR-15s. But I go deer hunting, and that's what I use.
Starting point is 01:28:22 Why are you taking that away? Now, Beto claims this is the first time he heard that people use those as hunting rifles. Of course. Shut that. What do you think they're used for? Well, also, if that's true, let's take him at his word for a moment, then he does not have enough information about the topic to make policy recommendations. Exactly right.
Starting point is 01:28:47 Exactly right. He also said, you know, I've heard about it, you know, in Texas with feral hogs. Oh, so you do know that they are used to hunt things. Okay. Well, that's like hunting deer. Except feral hogs have to be killed because they destroy everything on these ranches. The guy lives in Texas. He is preaching about gun safety.
Starting point is 01:29:17 and removing a firearm from your house door to door with a sheriff, and he didn't know those were a modern sporting rifle? The guy's an idiot. But he folds to this teenage kid. Listen to what he says. So this is the first time that I've heard the case made for using an AR-15 to hunt deer. I've heard feral hogs in Texas. which are a real problem on a lot of the ranches and farms in my home state.
Starting point is 01:29:52 Perhaps a way to address a legitimate concern or need is to ensure that those who have or want to use an AR-15 are able to keep it at a hunting club or at a gun range. So there is some control and safeguards still placed on that firearm. But this is why I'm here. I want to listen to those who feel perhaps differently than I do, include the point of view. and ideas in whatever becomes the final piece of legislation or the law that we adopt.
Starting point is 01:30:24 This is why I'm out of high school so I could listen to the experts. So I can, this is the first time you've ever heard that these guns were used for hunting. That's absolutely incredible. What are they purchased for? Seriously, what are they purchased for? To murder, Glenn, they're purchased. to murder. It's their only use. Their only possible use is to murder.
Starting point is 01:30:55 This is why, you know... Well, if I want to get those feral hogs, I can keep my rifle at the gun range. So all I have to do is get all of the hogs into the back of my truck. Yeah, bring them over to the gun range. Bring them over to the gun range, and then I can have my gun there to shoot them.
Starting point is 01:31:09 That sounds pretty reasonable. You know, if I could put them in... So I like to shoot skeet. So if I could put them in, you know, loaded in one of the skeet, shooters, you know, you just pull and a feral hog. Right.
Starting point is 01:31:23 That'd be fun. That sounds like a bedo sort of policy prescription for this one. Sure. Yeah, I mean, it's a bizarre thing because such a small percentage of rifles are ever used for any negative purpose.
Starting point is 01:31:36 And one of the big complaints from the left seems to be we really don't like the guns that work well. Like we like, it's okay if you have ones. If you have a gun lock, that's fine. Right. But this one, if it shoots, accurately. They even say that.
Starting point is 01:31:49 These are precisely accurate. What the hell do you want a gun to be? It's supposed to fire at the thing you want to hit. I like one where the barrel can be bent both ways. So you never know what you're going to hit. What's in front of you, what's behind you, what's beside you, you never know. Yeah. I mean, the whole point is that you can hit the thing you're supposed to hit.
Starting point is 01:32:06 Obviously, a very tiny percentage of people have decided to use these things in bad ways. Though we saw a mass shooting again this weekend that had nothing to do with an AR-15. you look at many of the mass shootings have happened with handguns or shotguns or any of it. Exactly why we should take all guns. Yeah. And that's the next Beto thing, right? Yeah, and they should be kept in Beddow's basement. You can just go over to his house, knock on the door and say, hey, Beto, I need my gun.
Starting point is 01:32:31 And then he'll say, well, bring the robber or whoever is here. I'll give you your gun. You can sign it out. And then you can keep him. Do not threaten him with that gun. No. But you can use your gun. just not towards him until the police arrive.
Starting point is 01:32:49 That's basically where we're headed. Really? It's where we're headed. Okay, so let's talk a little bit about Joe Biden. Joe Biden apparently, according to a new poll, 27% of likely Democratic voters would be dissatisfied with Joe Biden. 27%. That is higher than the 21% that would be dissatisfied with Bernie Sanders.
Starting point is 01:33:15 as the nominee. And, you know, Biden's running as a sort of consensus candidate, right? The case for his election is that nobody's completely offended by his policy platforms. Okay, so I think, I think this could be true because Biden is the corrupt candidate like Hillary Clinton, old establishment corrupt candidate, right? and that's what that's what people on the the conservative side wanted to get rid of the corrupt candidate that was part of the system so i can understand that you don't necessarily like him but that but for for it to be six points higher than those who don't want the avowed socialist who are saying we're going to get rid of the free market that's pretty stunning so 21 percent are dissatisfied with Sanders
Starting point is 01:34:13 15% would be unhappy if Warren was the nominee. Only 9% dislike Mayor Pete Buttigieg, which is also starting to come up. Have you noticed? I've got a story someplace where they are talking about how, right here, let's see, an emerging scenario where Buttigieg wins the nomination. For a rising star in the party,
Starting point is 01:34:42 vastly overperforming expectations in crowded presidential field would easily be considered a victory in its own way. But there's a real reason to think Pete Buttigieg could win this nomination outright. One such rather plausible scenario is starting to develop right before our eyes, and it starts as these things often do in Iowa. Two polls this last week had good news for Buttigieg in the lead-off caucus state. Suffolk University in USA Today poll had the mayor in third place at 13%. More importantly, he was just five points off Biden's first place lead of 18. There were a lot of undecideds in this survey at 29%.
Starting point is 01:35:24 They were four behind Elizabeth Warren's 17%. Bernie Sanders had fallen back to fourth. So it's Buttigieg at 13, Elizabeth Warren at 7, and Biden. at 18 with 29% undecided. Yeah. I mean, look, there's a case here. Buttigieg is a, he's a guy that I don't think has really excited Democrats so far. He's sort of boring, but he's well-spoken.
Starting point is 01:35:54 He's obviously a pretty smart guy. And he has some intersectionality value for the left. The other thing that's great for Buttigieg is the two states that vote first are super. duper white. They're like the whitest of the white, the whitest whitey people of all times. That's the problem for Biden. Biden's got to go through three elections
Starting point is 01:36:18 before he gets to a large African-American voting base. And it's like that's where he's super strong. But you lose three states in a row. Can you survive that? Well, you have Buttigieg, whose only constituency seems to be whites.
Starting point is 01:36:35 Yep. White and liberal. As soon as you get out of white liberal, you are in trouble with Buttigieg. I mean, legitimately, when you break down the cross tabs of these polls, he's showing up at zero and one percent among black voters. That's a problem. It's only zero. Only one place to go up. That's true.
Starting point is 01:36:54 And then you can write another article about how he's increasing his support among black voters. I mean, look, Biden has a case here to still make. I mean, he really hasn't fallen apart nationally, despite all the press about Warren. he's stuck right around the same area. The difference has been some of Sanders' support has gone away and has gone to Warren. But Biden's been right around 25 to 27 percent this entire time. And, you know, he hasn't really fallen apart. His campaign seems to be asleep.
Starting point is 01:37:22 I mean, what did you say? The zombie campaign they're describing it as the zombie campaign? It's kind of apt. I mean, like, think about this. The Biden thing happens with Ukraine and the whole Trump situation. they're going through this impeachment. I made this case before. If you are Biden, you need to take the hand that you're dealt.
Starting point is 01:37:41 If you want to win this nomination, you're out there every single day bragging about how Trump felt the need to call a foreign president to get dirt on me because I'm such a great candidate. He knows I'm going to beat him, so he's trying to break all the rules to beat me. I'm the guy that can beat him and he even knows it.
Starting point is 01:37:57 That's the case you're making to the American people. It's the case you're making to raise money. It's the case you're making on every left-wing talk show, but he's not doing that. he's barely doing anything. I'll give you another example. What's going on with Syria right now? Syria, the Kurds,
Starting point is 01:38:11 all these battles going back and forth between Turkey. This has been in the news cycle like crazy, right? And what's the fundamental part of this? The Kurds want their own homeland, right? The Kurds want their own homeland. Turkey doesn't think they should have it. Nobody thinks they should have it, right?
Starting point is 01:38:26 This entire region, the Kurds want their own homeland. Well, if you go back to the Iraq War, when that was all going on, and everyone was coming up with their ideas, there was one guy, Joe Biden, who actually recommended that Iraq be divided into three countries,
Starting point is 01:38:46 right, where the Kurds would have their own homeland. Now, you can go back and look at that policy and shoot holes in it like crazy, and you could say it wouldn't work and it's not the right prescription. But again, Joe Biden is running for president in the United States. It's his job and his team's job
Starting point is 01:39:02 to take advantage of news events and say this is where the president was. He should be the president because if he were the president back in this time, he would have done this. The Kurds would have had their own homeland and maybe this wouldn't even happen. How can you not be making the case? He's the only guy I can remember ever recommending that policy prescription. It was a big deal at the time.
Starting point is 01:39:23 Huge. And instead he just is sitting back as if he's, oh, I know a lot about foreign policy. Why don't you describe some of the specifics? Why not take advantage of what's going on? His campaign seems to be completely inept at this. Every other candidate is doing this, and he can't seem to do it. Okay, so this is from New York Magazine that calls it the zombie campaign, and it's, it's, obliterates him.
Starting point is 01:39:47 Obliterates him. Okay, so this is from like page 15. It's a strange dynamic, the most qualified candidate in the race, surrounded by an entitled staff who don't understand that they have to fight for the nomination or even the presidency, but without a real case to make. beyond a democratic succession that would amount to an Obama restoration. One person close to the Biden family said, the problem is Joe has no center. He's literally only a politician. That's who he is.
Starting point is 01:40:23 That's all he is. Biden is fundamentally a toady. He's just political. He needs to kiss ass. He'll kiss ass. I mean, it is remarkable what they are saying. Of course, Biden is consumed with endorsements. Another side of his perhaps outdated political instincts
Starting point is 01:40:47 getting insiders to declare their support meant something when powerful political machines controlled the primary process, but it doesn't have relevance to presidential politics today. And the only endorsement that could matter hasn't materialized. Barack Obama has remained silent on the 2020 primary, even as he saw fit to involve himself in Canadian affairs endorsing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. A senior White House official reflecting on Biden's weakness told me Biden should have never even entered the race without knowing he'd have the former president's support.
Starting point is 01:41:23 Of course, that was always less of a sure thing that it might have been, that it might have seemed. In 2016, Obama went all in for Hillary, even as Joe. Biden was contemplating a run. In the early stages of this race, he didn't just avoid aligning himself with Biden, but gestured toward other candidates, including
Starting point is 01:41:42 many unlikely contenders, including Deval Patrick, the former governor of Massachusetts possibly to discourage his former vice president from running. I mean, they are, they do not want him to be
Starting point is 01:41:58 president, the far left and the media. I want to talk to you a little bit about some of the things that are going on. We've got a show coming up where I'm going to kind of talk to you about the things that are happening in the country with the economy. Let me give you just this. Growing a portion of subprime auto loans are starting to sour, sooner, and an accelerating rate. Loans made as recently as last year are going bad at the fastest rate since 2008. with more consumers than usual, defaulting within the first few months of borrowing.
Starting point is 01:42:47 Many of these loans have been packaged into bonds, and they are all being sold on the open market. Santaner is one of the largest sum prime auto lenders in the market, and the quick failure of its loans could be an indicator that some of its borrowers are getting loans based on fraudulent application information, a problem that the company has grappled with in the past. it also shows weaker customers or consumers are struggling. This is before really anything that during the housing crisis,
Starting point is 01:43:18 one of the indications of application fraud was when mortgages started to fall behind within months of it being made. Now that's happening to our car loans, and things haven't gotten bad yet. This is just showing that there's a problem in the car loan industry, the same problem that there was in the housing loan industry. And many experts have told me this is the sign they're waiting for. The subprime mortgages going in the auto industry. Well, here you go.
Starting point is 01:43:55 So what does all that mean? It means that there could be rough storms ahead, me, matey. There could be real problems on the horizon that you need to really pay attention to and I beg you, put your house in order.

Starting point is 01:44:54 10 seconds station ID. Hey, by the way, California had a really good idea. They decided to cut the bureaucracy and just have everybody participate. in the election. And so they said, hey, you go sign up to get a car or a license, and you're going to immediately be added to the state's voter rolls unless you opt out. So you're automatically registered to vote in California. Isn't that great?
Starting point is 01:45:34 Well, there's been a few problems. They found 100,000 registration errors just in the first. year on where they were looking. You know, some voters registered to the wrong party. Some of them non-citizens, you know, somebody, some of them, well, a significant error rate. Let's just put it that, put it that way. Some were accidentally signed up and I wasn't there to get a card. How was I accidentally signed up to vote now?
Starting point is 01:46:08 But it's great what California is doing right before this election. just put something new in and just automatically sign up everybody in the state. I love that. Surely nothing could go wrong with that. Of course nothing will go wrong with that. I know. I love this. We really have gone this way of thinking that everyone should make it so easy for everyone to vote.
Starting point is 01:46:29 Everyone should be voting. Look, people who know what they're talking about should vote. People who have spent more than five minutes in the past four years thinking about politics. And at some level, yeah, there's your vote. Just like with Beto. If you didn't know an AR was a modern sporting rifle, that people use it to shoot deer, bear, you know, go hunting with it.
Starting point is 01:46:50 If you didn't have any idea that that was a sporting rifle, a hunting rifle, you shouldn't be allowed to vote. Beto, you shouldn't be allowed to vote. Well, can he, Kenny Vody? I know he had the DUI thing. Is he qualified to probably not a serious enough felony to stop the voting? Is the Glemmack program?
Starting point is 01:47:12 Here's a cold, hard reality. Emergencies generally strike when you're not expecting them. Really, pretty much everything, but I think hurricanes. You expect the hurricane, and then you're disappointed. Well, you're not, you know what I mean. The electricity goes out, or the gas gets turned off, or the power gets turned off by the power company, for some strange reason in California.
Starting point is 01:47:37 Stock market crashes without warning, an earthquake comes along and rearranges things in your neighborhood. you can be surprised, but you don't have to be panicked. When you need food for your family, if you're in California, 200,000 people were told to leave their house. Where are you going to get a place to stay?

This is the Glenn Beck program. Been exactly a month since we aired our first special on Democratic collusion and corruption in Ukraine. But that was just the first in. trilogy that we have planned. The first one, a new hope, where we meet our heroes and we meet
Starting point is 01:49:14 the villains and we think, oh, wait a minute, Obi-Wan, you're our only hope. If we can just get the media just to pay attention, we get people to talk about this. It's our only hope. Yeah. And if you watch that first one, you knew that Joe and Hunter Biden were just the tip of the iceberg, that it really wasn't about that, and it's really not about the phone call. No, it wasn't, because after all, we know that Donald Trump just wanted to go to Stashi Station to pick up some power converters. But we really thought that we might actually find some people that wanted to do some digging. But that's not what happened. The New Hope was quickly followed by the media empire striking back.
Starting point is 01:50:01 And they struck back with a two-pronged attack. The first was a diversion campaign using Rudy Giuliani. Now, I'm not saying what Rudy Giuliani did was kosher, but he is definitely not the main part of the story. He's just an attempt to get us to look again at another direction. On Wednesday, I'm going to show you their case. I'm going to show you what they have. I'm going to reorient this ship of ours and show you how the focus on Trump and Giuliani is nothing more than one thing, a diversion, and a dangerous diversion, for a couple of reasons.
Starting point is 01:50:41 We have a new election coming. Is anyone paying attention to what is really going on? The second part of the media's attack on the truth came in the form of a series of fact checks and debunks, of our claims on what Democrats have been up to in Ukraine. And I have to tell you, you will not believe. Now, you think you will. You think, oh, no, I know what the media is like. No, no, you don't.
Starting point is 01:51:11 I thought I knew how low the media would go until we started doing research on the fact checks and the debunks of our claims on what Democrats have been up to in Ukraine. And I have to tell you, you're not going to. going to believe the misdirection and the blatant lies. It is the worst I've ever seen. And they're using four main points to try and absolve the Democrats. And we're going to take down every single one of them. We'll show you. We'll show you so much that if you just show this one section, you and your friends will never trust the media on anything ever again. And I know you feel that way.
Starting point is 01:51:56 but there are people right now that saw the chalkboard and then they heard things in the media and the New York Times and the Washington Post and CNN and they were like oh well that's been debunked no no no it is an art form to their lies but I'm also going to do one other thing as an empire struck back did as well I'm going to set up for you the third the third installment of our trilogy. Our research in Ukraine has reopened the doors to something that I started looking at in 2009, and we thought it wasn't going anywhere. And then a name came up. And when we said, we all looked at each other, I went, why do I know that name? We started going back and looking at our files, and holy cow, we found something, quite honestly, I wish I hadn't. But it tied.
Starting point is 01:52:54 everything together. If you thought Ukraine was bad and you thought the world was upside down and it's all just a crazy coincidence, if you thought the Democrats really believed, hey, we shouldn't get involved in other
Starting point is 01:53:12 people's business. If you don't think that our government should be doing things in other countries against those countries' wishes, but we're so damn arrogant, we just know what's right, I'd like to introduce you to a few documents and the truth of what is really going on as the world is being set on fire. The trilogy continues with the Empire
Starting point is 01:53:40 Strikes Back. An all-new special on Wednesday. You can see that on Facebook and on YouTube and on Blaze TV. We really, really want you to see this special. And this one is important because it sets up number three, which is coming in a couple of weeks, three, four weeks. And this one is truly terrifying. Should you use a promo code with that maybe? Promocode Glenn, maybe to save $10 at blazhtiv.com. You can do it backslash Glenn as well. Okay.
Starting point is 01:54:14 But it's a good idea. Also, we are taking your phone calls today. Today at 5 o'clock, I just want to hear from you. and I want to know what you want to get from these specials. What are your questions? What have you heard? What is it that you haven't followed? You've heard the impeachment.
Starting point is 01:54:32 You have any questions on what we talked about on the blackboard and anything beyond that. I'd like to hear from you now. In fact, we'll start taking some phone calls right after the top of the hour. So noon Eastern time, we'll start taking those phone calls. that's about 20 minutes away, and you can call in. I really want to talk to you because we really want to make sure that we're covering the things you want to learn about or know. Call us now 888-7-27-B-E-C-K. If you've seen something on the news and you're like, well, this doesn't fit.
Starting point is 01:55:06 Please call us. Let us know. Let us know what the frustrations are as well on this story. 8-88-7-27-B-E-C-K. 8-8-7-27-B-E-C-K. call right now and our producers will get you lined up. 8 at 8-8-7-27, Beck, call us now. We haven't touched on the Katie Hill story today.
Starting point is 01:55:31 Yeah, I was thinking about putting all of the pictures out. Have you seen all of the pictures? I've seen more than I've wanted to see. Yeah, I don't know if I've seen all of them. I was thinking about just, you know, putting them out, but blurring out the offensive parts. So we would have to blur her face. And then, no, is that?
Starting point is 01:55:48 No, I, no, that. I mean, no, no, no, I meant blur the other parts out. Right. Yeah. So anyway, lots of blur. I cannot, I cannot. I was talking to my wife last night because she hadn't been following this. And I said, I wonder why.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Is it because no media sources are covering it? Can that be it? You noticed that? Yeah, I did. Me too. I noticed that. Did you hashtag it when you said that? No, I didn't.
Starting point is 01:56:14 I didn't. I should hashtag. Who has noticed? that the media doesn't really seem to care about this one. No, they don't care at all. Hashtag me too. Well, they do care that the right is pouncing. They care about the right pouncing.
Starting point is 01:56:29 That they care about. They care about revenge porn that they care about. Okay. But they don't care at all about a powerful congresswoman who is hooking up with her staffers, multiple staffers, who are younger and underlings. And apparently that is. No, she wasn't an underling. No, uh-oh.
Starting point is 01:56:53 Pretty sure she was. No, I think she likes, she prefers to be. Anyway. Anyway, uh, so there's another word for that. Have you heard, have you seen the picture of that office staffer who looks like she's being held hostage? The one when we're getting her hair, her brush, yes. Look at her face.
Starting point is 01:57:12 She looks like, help me, somebody help me, please. She's fully clothed. And this Congresswoman is completely naked. behind her sitting in this chair brushing her hair. And it is so creepy. And it really is. Don't you think it is? It seems really creepy.
Starting point is 01:57:28 I think that was in the original movie in the ring. It's a very simple. It was. It's a very similar scene. And she does look a little like, I mean, I hate to, you know, mix our horror films. But she looks like the woman who just got out of the tub from the Shining. Right. She does.
Starting point is 01:57:46 There's a lot of, it's terrified. She's terrified. Terrifying. So, yeah, she has these naked photos, which, you know, they're talking about those as if this is something like the right came out with and everything. Because it started on a conservative media source. I think it was Red State that first posted the photos. But the bigger story here is these are young, in many cases, female staffers being sexually used by a sitting congresswoman. And in some cases, a campaigning congresswoman.
Starting point is 01:58:18 And it's the first, it's the first Congresswoman to ever be hit by the Ethics Committee for sexual impropriety. Yeah. And she was a rising star among Demarest because she was a, she was a bisexual, out bisexual. She apparently had affairs with both men and women in her orbit. She denied it a lot at first and is now kind of relented and said, yes, these things did occur. But, you know, who's to blame is her abusive ex-husband, which if if the, if the emails are to be believed. It looks like the
Starting point is 01:58:51 victim, if you will, the young staffer. You see the emails and it's like, I've seen how she treats you. You're abused. You've got to get out of that relationship. It's an abusive relationship. Apparently, the
Starting point is 01:59:07 female staffer thinks that Katie's the one who is abusing her husband, not the other way around. I mean, it's hard to know, right? I know. I know. I don't know. But what I do know is what she's admitted to is against all these ethics guidelines. And I believe illegal. Like it's just, you know, it's one of those things they've drawn a line on.
Starting point is 01:59:28 Don't hook up with your staffers when you're a congressperson. So the idea that this is some like. It just leaves the pages. Republican. Did I say that out loud? This is not some Republican plot here. If you're going to Republican, if you're going to plot as a Republican to take out a, you know, a powerful Congresswoman. You don't go with Katie Hill, which we should all admit here, none of us knew was a Congresswoman as of last week.
Starting point is 01:59:53 No idea. I had never heard her name before. I had no idea who she was. No, you know what? That might be proof it is a GOP plot. Really? Because that seems like something the GOP would do. Let's find the most worthless person that no one knows and take them down. That would be a typical GDP plot. Right. Somebody that can't hurt us or do anything about it. And nobody will care about. Yeah, let's get them. They're the worst episode of House of Cards. Like, they sure they do all sorts of corrupt things behind the scenes, but they never lead to anything good. They push themselves on the train tracks.
Starting point is 02:00:36 I swear there was nobody there. Of course not. It was a GOP guy. He threw himself in front of the train. It's not every day that you get hit by a van or a train. I can't help you if you've been hit by a train, but if you've been hit by a van, this is what happened to Joe.
Starting point is 02:00:53 He's from New Jersey. He was crossing the street in New York City. The wrong moment, a van comes around the corner and just hits him. He's rushed to the hospital. He lived through it, but a lot of pain. He has been struggling to fully recover. He hasn't been able to do yard work. He hadn't been able to play with his kids because of all of the pain he had.
Starting point is 02:01:16 then one day he heard about relief factor relief factor he found to be i'm quoting a miracle within a few a few weeks he started to get his life back the pain he had been in ever since that day that he was walking the street crossing the street in new york it all began to melt away and it is stayed away ever since when taken properly relief factor attacks the inflammation that causes much of our pain, and it works for 70% of the people who take it, and it only costs 1995. Start their three-week quick start today and see if you don't get your life back, like Joe did, like I have.

Anything that is on your mind, call us at 8-8-7-27-B-E-C-K. I'll be taking phone calls in just a few minutes. The brother of a Sandy Hook victim has blasted Joe Biden for the, lie of
Starting point is 02:03:13 Biden, you know, taking everybody in Air Force One to the White House, he said, and I quote, this is a lie. Obama came to Sandy Hook and met with every family, but Joe Biden did not. Joe Biden, just as
Starting point is 02:03:29 Joe Biden claimed, he came to Sandy Hook after the shooting and met with every family who lost someone. It was actually Barack Obama who did that, not Joe Biden. Biden also thought he was VP when Parkland happened. He's either a liar or he's losing his mind. Oh, that's not true. He could easily
Starting point is 02:03:45 be both. He's he also said, not only did Biden not meet with all of the families like Lewis said Biden claims, but Lewis said the Obama administration offered trips to Washington on Air Force One,
Starting point is 02:04:04 but those only went to families who supported the Obama administration's gun agenda. I mean, these guys are Just, they're just amazing. It is amazing. Just amazing. Yeah, even on the day with Al-Baghdadi going down,
Starting point is 02:04:17 here's one good day. You'd think, I mean, Nate Silver is in trouble with the left. Now, Nate Silver, you may know, he runs 538.com. He was a guy who was the architect behind the landslide, I thought. He gets unfairly, I think, maligned for some of this. But, I mean, he was one of the, first of all, he was one of the first people who called the Tea Party thing back in the day of, like, 2008, right after Obama.
Starting point is 02:04:41 Everyone was saying the Republicans were just going to be a regional party until the end of time. That's right. One of the first people who did that is also very early on he was very consistent saying that Obama was going to beat Romney
Starting point is 02:04:54 and he was right on that. And he had a more optimistic take for Trump than every other prediction website out there. However, I think he said it was about 30% chance Trump would win. And he's been maligned for that, which he got it wrong and I mean at some level anyway. No need to go into all the details, but he was the liberal hero, right?
Starting point is 02:05:14 For a long time. He was the leftist hero forever. Now he's being called alt-right. He's alt-right now. Yes, he's alt-right. Right. Why is he alt-right? Well, he said he couldn't understand why the left and some of the left media sources
Starting point is 02:05:29 wouldn't be able to just give Trump one good day when it comes to taking out one of the world's most renowned terrible terrorists. That was apparently just saying that he should have one good day. because he killed the equivalent of today's Osama bin Laden you can't even give him one good day seems like you're going crazy that apparently makes him all right
Starting point is 02:05:51 because he's I guess saying one good day for Trump makes you an extremist in the left media and it's true. Absolutely. It is. I mean look what Saturday Night Live did look what all the media has done.
Starting point is 02:06:05 They're making Al-Baghdadi into some nice guy that was a huge thing. that we really should not celebrate.
