The Glenn Beck Program - Violent Rioting Has Nothing to Do with George Floyd | 5/29/20

Episode Date: May 29, 2020

Apparently, looting and burning are now considered “protest” activities. Police evacuated a Minneapolis police station as protesters torched it. A CNN reporter got arrested live on air for no apparent reason while covering the protests. Black business owners and “rednecks” defend businesses with legally owned guns. President Trump described the rioters as “thugs,” and the internet went crazy. Twitter censors yet another Trump tweet. CNN’s Don Lemon argued that conservatives care more about Target than George Floyd’s death. Stu gives the greatest COVID-19 story since the beginning of the pandemic. Joe Biden’s VP pick will reveal a lot about his campaign. Does the government have ANY power to close churches? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

She knows. How? Did you blam? No. The Devil Wears Prada 2. He's the movie event 20 years in the making. Honestly, can't with the secrets anymore, so I think we just should tell her. Will you two please spit it out already?

This Friday, be the first to experience it only in theaters. In light of the recent scandal, I'm here to restore your credibility. Oh, because we're a team now. That's a nice story. The Devil Wears Prada 2 in Theaters Friday. Welcome to the program. We have a minute or two here before the radio program starts. Another freaking crazy day.

You know, someone should try implementing a normal day one of these days. I'm just thinking it's a good idea. Is it possible? Is just this the normal now? I don't even know. The more protests last night in Minneapolis. which seems to lead to a lot of burning of buildings and destruction of property, to the point where they actually took over a police station.

How is this possible? The police evacuated their police station and they destroyed it. They broke into the evidence room. They were removing pieces of evidence from investigations out of this place. I mean, it's remarkable what's going on there. And then this morning, if you haven't heard, it's going to be the big story from the media. A CNN journalist was arrested.

live on the air because really seemingly nothing is the only way I could describe it. He doesn't seem to do anything. So we'll get into that today as well. A lot of other stuff. There's tons of news as usual. It never stops.

Radio show starts here in about five seconds. It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn. What to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. All right, welcome to it. Triple 8, 727 Beck is the program. It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn, who is on vacation, returns Monday.

Another crazy night in Minneapolis where protesting, quote unquote, protesting. And that's what it was, Pat, protesting. Right. When you protest things, a lot of times, you protest it by lighting it on fire. It's just one way to do it. It's an expression. Or stealing TVs. Stealing TVs.

Another great way. great way to protest. As we all know, the real cure for racial strife is the new Samsung 4K 63 inch. That is what really cures it. I think there was an 80-incher that was taken out of there from the target. That's the way to do it. I mean, it's despicable. It's absolutely despicable. It needs to, why don't they put a stop to it? I don't understand how they just let the items roll out of the store and they just watch it go, wave goodbye to everybody. It is, it's inexplicable. There are hours and hours and hours of looting with no one.

No one. No one shows up. Nobody gets arrested. It's bizarre. It is bizarre. And beyond bizarre last night, Pat, in that the actual police station was evacuated by the police, and the police drove away so that they could light the police station on fire and destroy it and break into the evidence room. and remove evidence,

which I guess anyone... Now, if you happen to be a criminal, this is a very good development for you, because now they apparently don't have the evidence to convict you anymore. How on earth is this a thing? I can't... I've never seen anything like a police station thing.

Yeah, it's... We have seen the looting thing allowed before, but police just up and leaving, first they upped and then they left. They upped and then they left. Yeah, they upped and then they left. and then allowing the station to burn to the ground is a very bizarre development, I think, in the scope of civilization.

It's a strange new twist. I noticed that as well. I've never seen anything like it. At least they should say looters will be shot on site. Even if they don't mean it, at least say it. Let's have some sort of restraint here on the part of the looters. They might think, okay, well, something might happen to me if I loot. They know nothing's going to happen to them.

No. And this has nothing to do with George Floyd, by the way. This has absolutely nothing to do with the murder of George Floyd. And even his mom has come out and said that. Please don't destroy our community. He would hate this is what his family said. He would hate this. So don't be doing this in his name.

You're doing this for you. It's got nothing to do. You do you, though. You do you. If that's burning down a police station, so be it. You do you? I believe it was the great philosopher Madonna who said express yourself. And look, if you're going to express yourself by burning down a few dozen buildings,

who are we to say that that's wrong? Thank you. You know, I don't under. I'm glad there's people out there defending it. There's a couple of videos. Do we have the CNN arrest video from this morning yet? We're still working on it. That's coming soon because.

Oh, yeah, they arrested some CNN employees. Yeah. CNN journalists on the air, and I have to say, you know, I love to, you know, CNN is a routine, um, uh, point of contention here on this program and every other place on the right where they annoy us consistently. This reporter seemingly did absolutely nothing wrong. He was calm. He was telling the police he would go wherever they wanted him to go.

And they arrested him anyway. And I just forget even the right and the wrong of it. Just the optics of it. There is a guy on national television who, by the way, is a black reporter who you're arresting while he's doing nothing. And it's obvious to everyone that he's doing nothing because he's doing it on camera. Here's another idea. Really terrible, horrible, bad thing to do to put your knee on someone's neck for 10 minutes and kill them. Horrible, horrible thing.

Some additional level of insanity must apply. if you're doing it while 10 people are filming you. What do you, of course the city's going to burn to the ground. What do you expect to happen? Now that does not excuse it, but certainly like, what on earth would you think would happen? Do you think you're going to get away with that? I don't know. And, well, they're not going to get away with it, too.

That's the other thing that's going on here is they have been fired. The investigation is happening. I fully expect them to be charged. Not just the guy with the knee on his neck, but the other three as well. With something. They're going to be charged with something. Accessory or negligence. I don't know.

But they're all going to be charged. So why the madness here? Now, you can understand they haven't charged him yet. And every day matters, particularly if you're a business owner in this particular area. Yeah. You really like them to, you know, let's get them charged. Because maybe that at least calms it down somewhat. Yeah.

Now, there was one of a spokesperson who said, we have a lot of evidence to go through, you know, and there is some evidence that would not indicate a criminal charge. Now, he's very vague on it. Yes. Like, what? They CG hide the whole thing.

It actually didn't happen. Both of them were fine. That was the only, the only thing I could come up with that would not make it a criminal charge. But, you know, look, of course, in our system of justice, we need to hear both sides of the story. I just can't, I can't, you know, I don't think the best fiction writers could come up with a reason as to why this was okay.

Because the video evidence is pretty strong there. Pretty strong. At the very least, I think you had mentioned it initially. Negligate homicide is a, it seems like at the very best, you know, it's very possible. Do I think that he planned it? No. I don't think he got up in the morning and thought, I'm going to kill a black person today. I don't think that happened.

Odd, right. It would be an odd thing. Let's take a quick break. we're going to we also we have a ton of stuff from last night including some black gun owners who are exercising their second amendment rights defending their business in an inspirational sort of way we'll come back in 60 seconds with that this is the glenbeck program when you log into your computer something weirdly good happens your password gets changed into asterisks or dots that's your computer doing you a favor by helping to keep prying eyes

Triple-8-727 Beck is the phone number. Pat and Stu in for Glenn. talking about the developments last night in Minneapolis. A couple of pretty interesting videos. Let's start here with the CNN thing, because this just happened a few hours ago on the air. I think it was about 4 a.m. Eastern, this happened. Maybe it was a little later than that, 5 or 6, something like that. And basically what you saw was a CNN reporter in a middle of a situation where there's

a bunch of cops, they're blocking an intersection off. the CNN reporter is off to the side with a few other officers and he's trying he's trying to do a report there is not anything active going on there's not a riot going on in the background there's not you know

you're not seeing bottles thrown it's they're all just kind of standing there they've seemingly controlled the situation as that is happening this reporter is trying to do a report and here's what happens this is part of the advanced police presence that we saw come

over the course of really minutes when the local police showed up at the fire department, or with the fire department, I should say, on that building we showed you that was burning. This is among the state patrol unit that was advancing up the street, seeing and scattering the protesters at that point for people to clear the area. And so we walked away. I'm sorry? You're under arrest. Okay. Do you mind tell me why I'm under arrest, sir? Why am I under arrest, sir? As you see, he's not. Not yelling back. He's not fighting. Is it because they showed the officers?

Is that why? That's not what they said. If that was the reason. Now, there is a car you can hear kind of skid out to the side there. Everyone kind of turns their head for a second. If you're just tuning in, you are watching our correspondent, Omar Jimenez, being arrested by state police. His mic is still on the floor. The camera's still on.

correspondent is being arrested. Hang on one second. Allison, let's listen into what these officers are saying. Allison's trying to talk over the whole thing. They're not saying anything. They're just walking the perp to that. He's an American television reporter Omar Jimenez being led away by police officers. He clearly identified himself as a reporter. He was respectfully explaining to the state police that our CNN team was there and moving away.

as they would request. I'll give CNN lots of crap for lots of things. He's telling the truth here, though. That is exactly what he was doing. Yeah, there was no reason for that. Bizarre. On television. Now, they keep arresting people.

This is the producers and cameramen. They're arresting up with the camera down. Okay, they're arresting the whole crew. Now, they put the camera on the ground, and it's sitting on the ground. They don't realize it's still on. And it just shows the feet of the CNN reporter. They're just airing this live on the airing.

It's like a backpack unit of some sort. Fascinating. Yeah. But again, still all the TVs you want. Oh yeah, that's totally fine. But don't do a report near there. Right. Minneapolis State Police, we believe.

The camera is now on the ground because our cameraman has been handcuffed. Now, as this goes on, we can, we can bring this down. As this goes on, Pat. Wow. It's crazy. The police clearly don't even understand they were, I don't know how they didn't get it, because he's talking into a microphone and he's doing a broadcast. But the cameras just stays on on the ground the whole time.

I mean, like, they come back to the camera an hour later and it's still on. It's still on in broadcasting. Wow. So they brought three CNN employees to jail. Jeff Zucker, the guy who runs CNN, got in touch pretty quickly with the governor of Minnesota who was like, sorry. And a half an hour later, they were released. So it went pretty fast.

Did we ever find out why they were arrested in the first place? Their claim was that they asked them to move and they didn't move. But you can hear on the audio, he's blatantly saying like, yeah, let me know where I need to go. Just point the direction. I'm happy to go that way. And they don't say anything and then they just arrest them. And they may have told them earlier to leave and maybe they didn't listen the first time and we're only getting the second half of that. Regardless.

Take a step back from whatever excuse comes up out of this. There may be one. but optics are important in a situation like this, right? Like you are arresting a black reporter on here for doing nothing. Police don't apparently care about optics. They're totally in any way because this whole thing has been loaded with bad optics for them. Yes. From the very beginning of this.

And in both bad and incompetent behavior. Yes. You know, is it possible CNN these reporters were. just arrested just because of bad reporting from CNN. And this was just, they had the opportunity. Finally, we got the cops. We have CNN. Let's just arrest them. Is that possible?

It is possible. I think it is. When you log into your computer, something weirdly good happens. Your password gets changed into asterix or dots.

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. He's on vacation this week. You know, we're talking about the arrest of the CNN crew, which is unbelievable. Here they are. Allowing people to burn police stations to the ground. they do nothing except evacuate the building so that they can do that. Here they are allowing people to completely destroy a target superstore. Take items out of it and steal all the electronics you want.

They do nothing. But CNN crew is standing there doing a report. They arrest them during the report. I don't. What is the matter with the Minneapolis Police Department? there's something wrong there. He identifies them as state police too. Oh, state police, okay.

I have no idea. Look, It's just bizarre. These guys have just been through a long night of fighting a ridiculous situation. Yeah. And there's lots of excuses as to why you would not be a very joyful person at that moment. But that does not excuse arresting people. And they've mostly been bystanders and they've mostly been watching what's been happening.

They haven't really been, you know, cracking heads. or anything, right? And it seems like there was a, I guess you'd call it a political decision made at some point at some higher level to just let this happen. Yeah. Right? Yes. But you can't let the CNN report happen. No, you can't let that happen. Now you've gone too far. Unbelievable. They burned down, you know, Target, you know, all these places. And they let them go in there and take all this stuff out. This got nothing to do with the memory of this of this person who's murdered. Everyone's estimation. Like, we've taken this situation where we all agreed on something finally and literally lit it on fire within 48 hours. You know, now you've got people on television justifying the looting because of course they're upset. That's why they're taking these TVs.

Like, that is not a... One does not lead to the other. It's not a rational reaction. I'm sorry. And, you know, it's honestly like, there's definitely a tinge of racism in that analysis. It's like, you know, it's like, well, it's, we have to accept it because this community is going to do that because they're upset. It's like they're not, they're not holding African American communities to the same standard as white communities or any other community because they act as if they are not able to control themselves. Which is racist.

Which is racist. Obviously. I mean, look at the mom of, of George Floyd. Floyd. He, he clearly, she clearly was. absolutely saying don't do this. 90%, 99% of that community is at home terrified for their lives in the middle of this. You got a couple thousand people out there lighting everything on fire and idiot white people going on television trying to justify it.

Yeah, it's unbelievable. It really is. You see the Cardi B tweet yesterday? I definitely did not. With 100% certitude. Well, of course, I'm a huge follower and fan of Cardi B. You go to our concerts saying, you know, all of her CDs. Yeah, you have it all.

It's so good. And then she tweets this out, which I think is brilliant. Here's what she said. The people are left with no choice. But to riot? But to loot? She says, they looting in Minnesota and as much as I don't like this type of violence, it is what it is.

Well, that's powerful. That is this good analysis. That is powerful. That is really deep. And you can't argue with it. There's a lot of this justification, man. There is. A lot of it going on.

And, you know, you can be, you can be a person who thinks what happened to George Floyd is absolutely unconscionable. I mean, none of us can understand how it happened. Right. That does not mean you go get a free Xbox. It just, that is, those two things just don't go together. No, they do not. One does not cause the other. It is, of course, it's, it isn't like, it is what it is.

Like, no. You can just not. And, of course, lots of people in the community didn't do that. You know, they're not going to get any hype because they're the ones hiding in their homes, right? As they're watching the place they go to buy formula for their child burned to the ground. What a win this one is. Hey, you know, we, they built, they burnt down a brand new under construction, affordable housing project. Yeah.

Could this community have used? $30 million had been spent on this thing already. Now, down the tubes. It was going to house 190 families. It's gone now. It's gone. Okay. What sense did that make?

Was that a good move? No. These are not sensible moves, and they're not done by people who give a crap about George Floyd. No. No one who is out there setting target on fire has any connection to the cause, to the movement, to anything other than selfish nonsense. That is not how you react. And it's not, it's not, it's certainly going to do nothing but hurt.

You know, I don't know if we mentioned this on this show yesterday, but if I was going to say right now, hey, you know what, I'm opening up a, I actually just got a nice little condo in Watts. Immediately, every single person in their head would say, oh my gosh, the riots, the riots place. It was 55 years ago when you still think of it as the riots place. Right. It destroys your community for decades to come. What do you think of when you think of Ferguson?

Yeah. Rioting. Riting. Now, is Ferguson better than it was five years ago, six years ago in the middle of riots? I'm sure it is. It's probably. But is that the impression that the average American would get? I don't think so.

No. No, we all remember. Yeah. I mean, look what, when bad things happen in a place, even if it's not rioting, I mean, what do you think of when you think of Waco, Texas? Now you might think of Chip and Joanna. It took a long time to get there. But up until them, you thought of the David Koresh situation.

Yep. Totally. And it wasn't even in Waco, by the way. Right. Which is the craziest thing. It's like, well, watching those reports back because I was watching that series on Netflix recently with Waco. If you haven't seen it, it's pretty good. Oh, yeah. And they're like, they're showing the news reports.

They're like 14 miles outside of Waco. I'm like 14 miles? Like, we've been calling it this Waco this entire time. It was 14 miles outside of town? Oh, man. AAA 727 back. This is the Glenn Beck program. When running a business, HR issues can kill you.

okay but i haven't asked them so there's a typical me-to era sort of problem yeah it really is it really is. I even asked. Another problem we've been having is rioting on behalf of a man who was murdered at the hands of police. None of it makes any sense. You can, but apparently this is a license now and has been for a while to riot, to loot. And then the police stand by and do nothing about it. There are some people that are a little disgusted by it. Here is one guy talking about using your brains people. This is awesome. Listen to this. This is for everybody out there that's trying to use their brains. Okay.

Before it actually became a riot, the media was calling it a riot. You find that there are hundreds of people that are being arrested that have been bust into Minnesota. They don't even live there. The police commissioner actually said it. The mayor will tell you he don't care. You have 400 years of slavery. Go ahead and destroy everything going on around here. But let me tell you why he's saying that.

Oh, these liberals are devils. He's saying that because you're not rioting on his block where his house is. That's why. It's because you're rioting in your own neighborhood and destroying your own neighborhood. All of those targets, I'm pretty sure tons of black folks from that neighborhood work in that target. And now they're not going to have a job to go to either. With the pandemic already crippling economies and already hurting your area, they already knew this is going to make it worse for you. They're letting you destroy your own homes and you're doing it willingly.

and George Soros are sending people to help. Then he starts in on George Soros. So why we cut it off before that? I don't know why, but guys, brilliant. I mean, pointing out the fact that a lot of these people aren't even from Minneapolis or Minnesota. They're being bust in because they're activists who are there to cause trouble. And then the mayor saying, ah, yeah, you know, it's kind of understandable. It's a little bit justified what they're doing.

Yeah, if it was on his block at his. His house that was burning, he might feel differently about it. You think? I think so. You know, I love the people who were willing to step up in these moments because it's not easy. You know, it's not easy to make these public statements. There was a great, there's been some great utilization of the Second Amendment the way it was intended in defense of you and your own property. This one black gun owner, he is, they were, or actually two of them, they were just two of them,

They were defending their business, standing outside with rifles. Listen. It said run up in here and see what happened. On fair out here with them blix owner. Blick's owner. Run up in this. Black-owned. You see that black-owned.

Run up in this. Oh, my mom, we're going to do that to y'all. You can see in front of the store, they're all standing out there with the rifles, like, come get our stuff. You know, one of the crazy things is they are putting signs in the window that say minority-owned, black-owned business, as if that means you're supposed. supposed to skip the business, I guess. And these protesters are still burning them down too.

And they're damaging those buildings as well. There's also a couple of... Now, Pat, this is one of those situations. I know nothing about these two guys outside of this video. And I know that once we play the video, someone's going to what they call milkshake duck them, which is a kind of an internet thing where you, you know, oh, look at that cute duck.

It's drinking a milkshake. Oh, the duck is racist. Like, it's like you're going to find out something terrible about these guys right after. But I love their attitude. This is, uh, these guys were just out walking around with, you know, with guns and helping local businesses defend themselves. Listen to this clip. So basically you've seen the records at cops keep and cops are a lot less likely to try and tread

on people's rights when there's other armed Americans with them. So it's about damn time that some, or at least I figure that it's a lot of time that's a lot of all the damn time. The heavily armed rednecks stood with fellow citizens. I love that heavily armed rednecks. They go on to explain, you know, how they feel about the riots or the protests themselves, the actual underlying thing that this was based on, not the looting, but the actual protests. And a little bit more about their motivation, which is great as well, listen.

We heard that. We're like, well, we better, we better kid up and go see. guys need help and turns out these guys around here with bachette and shattered windows trying to keep looters out of the business because cops can't get in here and so you know i figure before they were cops they were just americans so here we are already on during the l a riots or during the l a collateral damage i don't protect their own stuff that's where you got turned on the rooftop three so bottom line jennifer floyd and uh i hope they stop looting at some point if there are more of us we could go stop from looting but it's just us for him we definitely don't

agree with the looting. Yeah, no, looting. But we do agree with the cause for the protest. Yeah, definite protest. I mean, look at that. We agree with the cause for the protest, but not the looting. And he mentions the rooftop Koreans from the L.A. protest where those guys were defending with guns from their roof, their shops in the middle of those riots. And their Second Amendment protected their businesses.

You're seeing that again here in Minneapolis. You could say, you know, they only, I remember, I think it was Sarah Silverman back in the day when one of the guns. issues was going on. And she, you know, she's very impressed with her own intellect. And decided she had the greatest point of all time, which was, hey, second amendment, you know, right wingers. How about this? We'll just start giving black people guns. Okay.

Go ahead. In fact, some of them already have guns. First of all, they already have guns. But secondly, sounds wonderful. Yeah. Yeah. They have the Second Amendment is theirs, too. It's not just ours.

It's everybody's. It's actually a constant. constitutionally guaranteed right. She's thinking that that's going to frighten the heck out of white people who are so racist. Yeah, she thinks white people are racist and that they would expect black people to just start shooting randomly into crowds. How can they handle it? And it's like, how do you even have that impression? That says so much more about you.

And it does about us. I'm thrilled. There was a program. I would love to track this down and see what the progress was with it. but it was an organization, a pro second amendment organization, I think it was in Houston, that decided they were going to literally just give free guns to people in minority communities that felt that they needed them,

that we're all through responsible means, but maybe they couldn't afford them. Guns aren't the cheapest thing in the world. And they were giving them to them to them to help protect their families. And there was this like, oh my gosh, you're just giving guns away? Well, yeah, you know, the rights already there. You know, whether if the finances aren't there and they need protection, what a great way to do it. You know, if the police can't get there, if that takes time, I love their attitude there, Pat, of like, look, before there were police, it was regular people just stopping this stuff.

And here we've got our guns. We're out here. We're defending business owners. And that's why we're here. We're just Americans defending Americans. Awesome. It's great. Yeah.

So, again, we're going to find out that they led a genocide in Mongolia 13 years ago or something terrible about these. Because as soon as you get a nice video on the internet, you know it has to be ruined by somebody. Absolutely. They're looking for information on these guys right now. Absolutely. Here's what they tweeted in 2007. Yes. Oh, shut up.

Shut up. All I know is for that couple of minutes, they're like my favorite people. You know what else is driving me out of my mind and says more about the people making the accusation is the word. thugs, all of a sudden, if thugs is used, and of course, the president used it again on Twitter describing the people who are acting like thugs and looting and rioting, since when, is that a descriptor for only black people? That has never been a descriptor for, so that says a lot about you. Again. If you're saying that's what it means. Yes. That doesn't mean that to me. Why do you assume? You're right. That's what that means. Thugs can be white. They can be,

Any, they can be a rainbow of colors. Here's the definition. A violent person, especially a criminal. Nothing to do with black people. Nothing to do with color. Nothing to do with color whatsoever. And they've tried to, you know, the media of the left has tried to take a lot of words and make them only about black people. Like Chicago.

Like apartment. Yes. Like I've lived in apartments and I'm incredibly white. I'm like, one of the whitest people you'll ever meet in your entire life lived in apartments. You know, I've been to Chicago. I've never lived in Chicago, but plenty of white people do. It is not, these things, like they're trying to build this structure that you say any word to describe a person.

And it's going to come down to well that what you mean is their skin color. Well, it's not what we mean. No. It's not what, I don't think that's what the president meant. It shows how much they're thinking about that particular thing. Yeah. How much they care about whether a person is. black or white or brown.

That's all they spend their time thinking about. Yeah. And look, there is the, those undertones are obviously part of incidents like this. And the reaction to an incident where a white cop, uh, kills a black person, you are, we all know that that's going to be part of the analysis afterward. It is important to try to decipher whether it was actually present in this case. We know there was bad police work. We know there was what I would have called a murder at least.

although the charges haven't been officially leveled yet. But we don't have any evidence yet that this police officer was doing this for racial reasons. I mean, we know that, like, we do have evidence that Amy Klobuchar didn't prosecute this officer after previous conduct complaints. And you can watch, watch those VP hopes dissolve in front of your eyes as this report comes out. she became a senator and top contender for Joe Biden as VP spent eight years as a county attorney in charge of prosecution for Minneapolis. While in that position, Klobuchar declined to prosecute multiple police officers cited for excessive force and did not prosecute the officer who knelt on Floyd's neck as he protested. This is not, I don't know how she's not a dynamic candidate anyway. she may have been a good choice because she's not incredibly offensive to a moderate who might vote for Joe Biden.

But after this, I don't see how she can get it. You know, this is, you know, the biggest story in America and it's going to be tough for her to overcome something like this. I don't think they're going to want to put her any, but I think it hurts Kamala Harris, too. She had nothing to do with this particular case, but prosecutors are not going to be favored in the Democratic Party for. a while. They seem to not like law and order when, you know, a lot of the things that Kamala Harris did while as

a prosecutor and the same with Klobuchar are defensible. You know, it may not have been the right thing to do, but when does right and wrong have anything to do with this argument anymore? It really has nothing to do with the way these things get analyzed. Yeah. AAA 727 B. E.C. It's Pat and Stufer Glenn

on the Glenn Beck program. You're listening to Glenn Beck. You've heard me talk to Mike Lindell and about Mike Lindell.

I still say he should take his 80 million followers, go to another platform. I think that would make such a strong statement to Jack and to all of Twitter. Just leave the form and then just use Twitter to promote the other platform. Yeah, join me on X platform. Parlor, whatever it is. Yeah, that would be brilliant. Anyway, he tweeted he can't stand back and watch this happen to a great American city, Minneapolis. Lack of leadership.

Either the very weak, radical left mayor, Jacob Fry, get his act together and bring the city under control, or I will send in the National Guard and get the job done right. It's again, you know, governors who send in National Guard. These things are just not important. Let's not let that get in the way. What an adventure this is. I will say, is this the same tweet that he ended with the first looting then shooting or whatever? He said, these thugs are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won't let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the military is with him all the way.

Any difficulty? And we will assume control. Which again, no. But when the looting starts, the shooting starts. the shooting starts. Thank you. The end. Was he picturing people

standing up and applauding right then? I feel like he was typing it. He's like, yeah. This is where the applause happened. So this was interesting for a couple of reasons. Number one, something we talked about yesterday, which is, did you notice yesterday Donald Trump was not part of this story at all?

Because the only thing he had tweeted about it was, we're going to start an investigation, this was wrong, we're going to make sure we get justice. No one reported on that at all. No one. cared. Right. Now he came out with this one, which obviously is a little more inflammatory. And now everyone's saying talking about how it's his fault and he's doing, he's making this worse. And Twitter has come out and put a warning on the tweet saying it violates community

standards. They are not backing down from Trump as Trump did the executive order yesterday. They said, now there's a button you have to click to reveal the tweet. And the tweet says the, you know, first looting, then shooting or whatever it was. I just remember it rhyming. Which is like This is a bizarre world I mean I do remember when Twitter kind of came on the scene And it was such a Like a jockey way to deal with things

Like how do you get anything across in these little messages And it just seemed like a cheap way Like people would try to be like You know I lost my dad yesterday And it just felt like cheap and weird And now that's just how we get presidential statements all the time Yeah It's just like yeah 280 characters at a time

And we just that's how Everyone, of course, that's how we get them. It is so strange, but I think you're right. He's given so much free advertising to Twitter over the years. If he really is pissed off about this, just go to another place. There are other places, and half the country will go with you. And then maybe that will break down Twitter. Definitely.

What to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Featuring Pat and Stu for one more day this week. Just an unconscionable situation in Minneapolis.

first of all, the tragedy that brought all of this down on Minneapolis was just, it's unspeakable, really. I don't know a single person who was okay with what the cops did in this situation. Everybody I know of, everybody I've heard, everyone I've talked to considers it murder by the police. But the looting and the rioting, they just don't make sense, especially the looting. And if you want to peacefully protest and not riot, that's completely understandable. Yes. Completely.

And we're all behind that. But when you're destroying property for no reason or just stealing from people, I'm sorry. We can't go there with you. And they're burning down all kinds of. They burned down a police station, a precinct last night. The police just evacuated the building so they could do that. And then the looters ran through the police station and stole evidence. Okay.

And then burned down the building. It's really incredible. Don Lemon was talking about this last night. Now, Don doesn't, he has a really interesting question. And he's going to press you hard on this. You're going to be like, wow, I need to rethink the way my life is operating. When he asked you this deep, cutting question in his typical, you know, seemingly once every single night

drawn out solemn over dramatized over dramatized where he pauses for three or four seconds between each phrase he did one of those things last night

and he is he you know what he's cut to our core here pat oh boy he's now he's asking he sees right through us he does right through us doesn't he does We're so transparent to his steely glaze. Here is. Don. If you read some of what people are saying, and if you watch some of conservative media,

you would think people are mourning a target. Oh, my gosh. What? When you look at the pictures and what they are focusing on. Okay. So people should not be rioting. Do you understand what is behind that rioting? Oh, okay.

No. People should not be looting. Okay. Do you understand what's behind that looting? Do you have as much outrage? No. For that? Why was there a pause between those words?

Or for a man on the ground? No, I have more outrage for the man on the ground. No, he hasn't asked the question here. Oh, okay. Eight, nine minutes? No. What are you more outrage by? Yeah.

What matters more? As you said, a highly insured store, no one wants to lose their business. Don't get me wrong. And don't twist what I'm saying. Oh, no, we're not going to twist it. There's all, there's nuance. And I know people will say, oh, well, Don't say that I'm encouraging rioting.

I'm not encouraging writing. Well, you really are. You kind of are, actually. What is going on. You're justifying why so many people are so outraged and upset. So when you really think about it. Gosh, he's excusing it. Why are you mourning a target store?

I'm not mourning it. Why, Pat? Or an auto body store. Yeah. What about an automobile store? Yeah. And you're not placing that same emphasis, if not more, on the conditions that led to this happening.

Conditions that led to this happening. Okay, this is going to shock Don Lemon. Wow. We're all more pissed off about the guy dying than the target. No question. All of us more pissed off about a human life going away than the target. I'd love to ask Don, if he minds about the millions of children that don't exist because of the policy he endorses

called abortion because we care about those lives too and you never seem to care about any of those. Yeah, and about 16 million of them are black lives. Yeah. And black lives do matter. They matter to us. They do matter to us. But let's just take a step back from this. Jeez.

Think of the thought process that has to go through this guy's mind where he thinks this is a good point. where he thinks people are going to be like, no. Well, yeah, but they got the food court in there too. You can't just say it's just Target. They've got the place where you can get the pretzels. And they've got, you know, Target, they've got that whole clothing area. And the Super Target's got groceries in there too.

So I do more than that more than the black man. We all care more about someone being unjustly killed than a business going away. Yes. However, in addition, to that, Don, it matters that these people's livelihoods are being destroyed and people like you are going on television saying we need to understand it. Well, I don't understand it. I cannot understand both of those things. I don't understand why a black man would get killed in that way

and I don't understand why to make it better means burning down target. I don't get either of those two points. Either of them. Neither of them should happen. So if we make mistake one, if terrible thing one happens, do we do terrible thing too? I understand you're saying you're not encouraging it, but you sure as hell are justifying it. You're saying it's understandable in the circumstances. It's not understandable in the circumstances. We talked about this yesterday,

where we have military members that will capture ISIS people and not torture them and not kill them. with every justification, every moral justification to say, these person should not be on the planet. We still don't do it. It's not the way we do things in almost every case. And when people do that wrong and they break those rules, they get in trouble. There are things that go against that.

There's nobody getting in trouble for the looting. There's nobody getting in trouble for burning these buildings down. You know, there are signs up all over town that say black owned. minority owned businesses that are owned by minorities, by black people. They don't care. They're taking the stuff anyway. What does I have to do with George,

with George Floyd? George Floyd. Absolutely nothing. Absolutely nothing. Inexplicable. Inexplicable. And, you know, crazy. This idea that it would be a,

this is a big gotcha question. Why do you care more? About Target. Don, you moron. We all care more about the guy. But the thing is, we all agree on the guy. Yes.

We agree with you. We don't all agree, apparently. Apparently not. Apparently not. I thought that would be obvious. Wow. You know, I think we could look at the looting as a series of terrible crimes that, yes, aren't as bad as a murder. There's a reason our justice system deals with them differently.

We have all as a society recognized murder worse than property damage. But property damage is really bad, too. Stop justifying it. Stop it. This is the Glenn Beck program. You know, the last few months have really reminded us what's important in life. It's also helped us understand what we can eliminate or change. It's the same for business.

That is the current and probably partial list

of the businesses that have gone down completely in flames or have suffered heavy damages. Okay, why do you care about them more than you care about George Floyd? I don't get. Why? Why? I didn't say that. Getting a fresh start doesn't always have to take forever. If you're a homeowner who's focused on your budget right now

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. We're just naming his, and it's, you know, it's just a partial list of businesses that have been severely damaged or even in some cases completely destroyed by the rioting and the looters. And we don't mention this because they matter more than George Floyd, Don Lemon, but we mention it because this shouldn't happen. There's no reason to burn down the businesses in, in this area. you're only hurting the owners of those businesses and they're mostly minority owned. There's a phrasing, two wrongs don't make a right.

Yeah. That kind of seems, yes, the murder is really bad and worse, right? I care more about someone dying than a bunch of businesses getting burned to the ground. However, it's like the same thing. We've heard the same thing with the coronavirus situation. It's like, oh, you don't care about old people because you want to open up the economy.

No, we care about both. Right. We care more. Do we care more about people dying than a business being open? Sure. However, like, we need to look at the bigger picture and realize that the economy, as we call it, is a collection of people being able to feed themselves and their families, being able to get health insurance, being able to innovate, being able to do every good thing

that civilization has brought us. That's what the economy is. It's not a stock market. It's a collection of people working together to make sense. civilization as we know it. So yes, that is worth protecting as well. The same thing here. You know, it is not a choice between whether, oh, you know what?

Well, we look, we just care more about the big box store than we do the African-American gentleman. That's all. And you just listed off over 120, like 125. 125 businesses. I just, that's a, you know, a partial list. Bring me the news is the one that has it. Wow.

Minnesota site, 33 in St. Paul, 92 in Minneapolis. And that's after two nights. I can tell you, I did this list on Stu Does America, which by the way, you can subscribe to if you want to check out that show because we went through a lot of the stuff last night. The list wasn't nearly this large last night. Because I, you know, I did it before night two of the rallies where they probably doubled the list. And what's going to keep happening? I mean, think of the gull to go in and take over a police department, burn it to the ground, break into the evidence room and remove the evidence.

That is, you have complete confidence, nothing is going to happen to you. They were right. And, you know, as far as arrests or anything like that. And that's, which is crazy because this all starts because someone dies in a situation where they didn't do anything to deserve it. So when you're going in there and you're becoming violent to other citizens, to police officers,

you're much more likely you'd think to have problems with the police. Instead, they just drive away. Just go ahead and take it over. I mean, I understand that like their life is in danger too. And this is going to be a shocking thing for a lot of people to hear. But blue lives matter too. So yeah, you know, I mean, racist thing to say. Stu, you're just, your racism is just spilling out of you today.

Really? It's spilling out. By saying that... By saying that blue lives matter? Yeah, police officers. I think they should live. That's completely racist. To say that police officers should...

Because the thing you must only say is that black lives matter. Now you've said blue lives matter as well. Well, I'll just say all lives matter. Oh, wow. Wow. Do you hate people? Why do you hate minority people so much? No, I'm saying all lives.

That is unbelievable. I'm glad America is hearing this. See what you really are all about. This is Don Lemon's monologue. tonight, except he'd have a lot more pauses in it. Triple-eight, 727, back is the phone number. Man, I don't know what else you do other than laugh. I know.

I don't know how else to handle it. It's just, this is so crazy. It's a terrible freaking time. And we should go into this, too. I think a lot of it, there's a tie to the coronavirus thing in here, too, that I want to talk about at some point today. Maybe we can get into that coming up.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. Join the conversation. 888727 Beck. Triple-8-7-27B-E-CK. It's Pat's Stu for Glenn this week. You know, Pat, there's some things that are just universal truths. You know, all men are created equal. You know, we've talked about many of these over the years.

I believe there's a new one that has just sprung into the national consciousness, which is Andrew Cuomo is awful. that is a universal truth. I think it is. And look, I don't invent universal truth. I just live by it. Right. That's all we can do.

What are we going to do? We can't stop it. No. It's a universal truth. No, he's awful. Andrew Cuomo is awful. Yeah. And despite the fact...

Sounds like something that should be a universal truth that should maybe be... I don't know, emblazoned on a mug or something. What a great recommendation, Pat. Just finished it. It's up now. What? Andrew Cuomo is awful. No way.

Yeah. You can go, I just tweeted it if you're... on Twitter. Amazing cool institute. Stu Does America. Or you can go to Stu doesmerch.com and get there. It's interesting.

I was looking at the Stu does merch page. And the best selling items are the Andrew Cuomo is awful mug and the Nancy Pelosi sucks commemorative pen. Which is

I don't know what the audience is saying exactly there. Well, they're just citing universal truth. Universal truth. Which is great. Nancy Pelosi does. She sucks.

She does. I mean, she just sucks. She just does. So if you want to get your Andrew Cuomo was awful, Mug or your Nancy Pelosi Sucks, pen, all available at studeauzemerch.com. You have a new thing out too. What is that?

Yes, it's, it is, uh, I don't know, ask Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark. Because, because, uh, when the governor of New Jersey was mandating certain things, I think it was, he mandated that you couldn't go outside without a mask and there were, see, shutting down businesses and don't. And, and then he appeared on, I think it was Fox. And they asked him an interesting question. And there was an interesting answer to it. By what authority did you nullify the Bill of Rights?

I called up Cardinal Tobin, Cardinal Joe Tobin and Newark. So that's essentially what happened there in the interview. How did you nullify the Bill of Rights? Well, I called up Cardinal Tobin, Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark. So that's been a thing ever since. Ever since on the show, Pack Ray Unleashed. And so this is now a shirt now is, I don't know, called Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark.

He's the one who decides. He can nullify the bill of rights. That's a big thing. It's a big thing. Big responsibility. So, yes, that's our new t-shirt. Do we know if Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark has this shirt yet? I don't know.

I don't know. You got to believe he ordered it. I would think so. Because I would like to have that if it was me. Right? Right. So that everybody knows that you're the decider. He's the decider.

The ultimate decider. So you can get that at shot. dot blazemedia.com. I believe it goes slash Pat Gray. The government. Yes. The people. Mm-hmm.

You know, the, the, the constitution. Right. God. Yes. Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark. Right? That's the order. That's the hierarchy.

Yes. You seem to have it down. Thank you. Pretty quickly there. All right. And people, we can tweet that out as well, a link to that page. Yes. I'm fascinated by that.

I'm also fascinated by an additional aspect to this. I was thinking about this as you're watching the, the fires burn Minnesota to the ground, that there is a tie into what we've been going through here the past few months. And I think like we're going to wind up in an area where you lock down a population for eight, ten weeks. You take 40 million of their jobs away, whether you think it's worth it or not, right?

Like you might say this is the worst thing ever. We saved a lot of lives. But like there's an effect of that, as we've talked about. We obviously know the economics effects are there. There are effects with drinking and, you know, there's a potential effect with suicide, which, you know, hasn't been shown in the numbers yet. But obviously there's a, there's a scare there from people killing themselves,

not just from losing jobs, but also from losing relatives, right? Like, there's all sorts of things. There's a lot of negative effects about this. And there is a real examination of the data that shows that minority, communities have been hit much harder with this than suburban communities, white communities all across America. That's something that's shown pretty clearly in the data that they're trying to figure out what's going on with that. And you look at this and you say here, now you have a community who is dealing with a terrible incident, one that is unjust. And you also have a very, a very,

everybody in the country is filled with angst right now. Probably from the police on down. Everybody has, is pissed off about something. Either a relative has died or lost their jobs. We are in a Tinder box coming out of this thing. Like we don't, you don't go into a lockdown like this. And then when people come out, they're all really happy. Gosh, I'm so glad we're able to go out again.

I mean, a lot of people will react like that. I certainly have reared like that. I haven't burned anything down. But you can understand that there would be a heightened tension, right? So these types of events, which do happen, but again, statistically are rare, will wind up setting these things off, I think, more often coming out of this. People are unemployed. They're angry at the country.

They're angry at the situation. They're angry at life, man. And there's an increase in alcohol. There's an increase in drugs. There's an increase in, you know, they've talked. about domestic violence going up. This is across all communities. And those things all sort of thrown into a tender.

I mean, this could give us a lot of the sort of civil unrest we've worried about for such a long time. And certainly Minnesota is dealing with that right now. And I think there is a tie to people are in a situation where they're already massively uncomfortable for a hundred reasons. And something sets you off. and things can escalate very quickly. Again, not an excuse. It doesn't mean you don't make judgments.

You still need to make rational decisions. But we have a formula here that needs to be really thought carefully about. It's not ideal. It's suboptimal, Pat. Suboptimal. Yes, I would say it is. Below the optimal. Yeah.

Yeah, you can think of a lot of things that are more optimal than this. Yes. The situation right now is that, I don't know, civilization is collapsing. It seems like. It does feel that way a little bit. Consumer spending fell a record 14% in April. Okay.

14% in one month. In one month. Let's see. The saving rate, which is the difference between disposable income and spending, surge to 13.1% from 8%. So people are protecting their cash a little bit. So it's partially people losing their jobs, partially people protecting what they do have.

Yeah. We also are in a situation where, you know, the government's dished out trillions and trillions of dollars. Let's just project to the future a little, shall we? When the government isn't dumping multiple trillions of dollars into the economy every week or two. What happens then? We were talking about this yesterday with the stock market, which just seems to be really strong and hanging up there.

And that's a good sign in that maybe investors are seeing something and they're confident in keeping their money in the market. But it's hard to imagine. on the other side of this, that we don't have a really rough recovery, which is going to lead to multiple other problems as well. Yeah, the stock market being at 25,000 again, a little over that, in fact, would you lead you to believe that people are really optimistic about recovery, that it's going to happen and it's going to happen pretty quickly,

and it's going to come back strong. And there are some people saying that it will. On the other hand, it just might not. it's going to be interesting to see if the government ever stops giving away money, what happens at that point? I'm not convinced they're going to, though, because the Fed chairman, was it last week or the week before, said, oh, we've got all kinds of bullets left in our arsenal to fight this thing.

We can continue to this for a long time. Interest rates are at zero. Really? What else are you doing? Yeah, what are you going to do? You just keep printing money? Yeah. And, you know, I think that is a basically true statement,

at least until November. Because they are going to do that. In the middle of a presidential election, it's going to be hard to see anyone justify. I mean, I think parts of the, I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the additional unemployment payment of $600 a week taken away. Because that is, I think,

clearly incentivizing some people to not go back to work when they can. Of course it is. When you're making more money not working than working? Yeah. I mean, it just makes sense that people are going to keep doing that. Yeah. I have a friend of a friend who's in this situation and he has a job, was supposed to go back to work there, opening back up.

Didn't really like the job though. Kind of was thinking about quitting anyway before all this stuff happened. It's now getting unemployment plus $600, which leads him to get more money per week than he was making before. And it's like, well, I mean, look, I understand the societal situation here. But from a personal interest standpoint, there's only one choice there. Yeah. You want to leave the job anyway.

Now you're going to get unemployment plus $600 to not go back. A lot of people are going to make that choice. A lot of people are. They just are. Yeah. They're human. Plus, nobody cares anymore. Nobody cares.

Republicans don't care. Democrats never cared. No. And so now that there's nobody pushing back on them, no one cares. Just spend all you want. We'll print more. It's just keep doing it. So I don't care now.

Yes. Just send me money. Yeah. It's fine. There you go. I need more Cuban. had this idea where every couple of weeks, the government should just, they send you a debit card and then they continually charge it every couple of weeks with $1,200.

I'm good with that. Just send me free $1,200 every couple weeks. Someone's going to have to pay this off. And look, our kids are going to have to pay for this. Our grandkids are great-grandkids. Beyond that, let them fend for themselves. Great-great-grandkids and on. Screw-roof.

They can do whatever. I don't know. I'm never going to meet them. They can do whatever. Whatever happens to them happens to them. But the next couple generations I am worried about Pat. Yeah. You know, it's just it can't be repaid at this point.

We're 25 trillion. It can't be repaid. How do you ever pay that down? We're not going to. Because nobody, because first of all, again, no one cares. That is the issue. There's nobody even dealing with that or thinking about that or trying to do it. I think you could make the argument that for a long time, no one has cared.

However, at least the Republicans used to fake it. Right. And there is value in faking. that you care because at least then you're going in front of the American people and saying you're going to push back. And so the Democrats, instead of increasing the budget by $100 billion can only do it by $50 billion. At least we're holding it back a little bit. Now nobody cares. Right. Nobody. Thomas Massey's out there saying, you know what? I don't think we should spend it. It's about him. And he gets his head kicked in when he says something about it. Yes. So now it's Nancy Pelosi

says, we need another trillion dollars. And then the president says, no, I think we need two trillion. And then Nancy Pelosi says, oh yeah, $3 trillion. What about, yeah, I want more than you do. Yeah. And then they fight until they get to the point where they feel so ridiculous because they can't even pronounce the end of the number anymore. They're like quintillion, I think is where we are. And then they finally pass it. And then they just wait two weeks and start over.

Will that even be a milestone when we pass the quintillion mark? I don't know that anybody notices. I don't think anybody cares anymore.

We were just talking about how rough the economy is and how difficult everybody, you know,

the difficult situation everybody is going through right now. Got a call from a friend of mine last night whose sister was writing an ATV in May, had a really bad accident and had a severe head to head injury. was, and you know Justin, he used to work here as his sister. Camera guy. Yeah, a great dude. Great dude. And he, they had to lift, you know, helicopter to the hospital.

They thought there was a good chance she wasn't going to make it, went into ICU and went into a coma initially. They thought it was going to be a five-day situation. She came out in like two days. They're saying her recovery has been miraculous, so far. far, but there's like a super long way to go. Other side of this, she has no insurance. Oof.

So they are talking about a helicopter flight, two weeks in ICU. The rehab ahead of her, they're estimating six weeks of rehab at $147,000. This is all at this point seemingly out of pocket. So if you want to help out, a family member of a really good guy, a guy who, helped put this show and many shows here, the blaze on the air before, you know, he's, he's moved on to bigger, better things. But he's, you know, they're in real, they're in real need right now. I'm going to post this on my, uh, Twitter account. Maybe Pat, we can do it on yours as well. Yeah. I just get some attention to this. If you have a few extra bucks and, and, and you want to

help someone out here, uh, that, uh, it's helped to put these shows together, but also is, is, is really struggling right now in a situation that is, you know, impossible to face. I mean, imagine in the middle of this whole thing where so many people are losing jobs and all of this, it's an impossible time for this to happen. There's never a good one. But we know, we wish the whole family well. And there's a go fund me. You can search for it if you want for Kima, K-I-M-A is her name, for Kima. And we will put the link up all over the place wherever we can to try to try to help them out because, you know, look. Yeah, that's hard. Wow. These situations, you know, are impossible to deal within normal times to try to do that.

with one of these in the middle of this. I mean, it's got to be impossible. But anything you could do, this audience has provided miracles before to family. So if you have the means, if you have the chance, whatever you can do would be great. And we'll post that up at Twitter at Stu Does America. And I realize when you do something serious

and then you have to say at Stu does America at the end, it loses a little bit of its power. But anything you could do would be fantastic. Greatly appreciated. 3,8-27-B-B-E-Z-K. Are you following the, The SpaceX launch at all that was scrubbed the other day because of weather, but they're going to do it again tomorrow.

They're going to try again tomorrow. With Elon Musk going into space with a manned flight for the first time. And the first time astronauts will blast off from U.S. soil since Barack Obama ended essentially the space program in the United States, at least the space vehicle program. So we've been space hitchhikers ever since. So for the first time since 2011, we're actually going to get our own. astronauts into space with their own vehicle. Hmm.

Pretty exciting. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. It's with the private sector. I do too. I love that part of it. I do too.

About to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. featuring Pat and Stu for one more day today. Glenn's back on Monday morning. Triple-8-7-27-Be-E-ZK. You can hear my show, Pat Gray Unleashed every day 7-9 Eastern on the Blaze Radio and TV

and then listen to it on podcast if you don't get up that early or you're not, you don't have access to it that early, whatever the case may be you can listen to it anytime on podcast. Absolutely. And to do the same for Stu Does America. Appreciate that. I feel like this story is deserving of both Pat Gray Unleashed and Stude as America and even this particular program. One of the most listened to radio shows in America. Because I think this might be the greatest COVID-19 story since the beginning of the pandemic.

Really? Now that's a big statement. That is. Because most of it's been really crappy, terrible news. But there have been some pretty bizarre stories that have happened throughout this crisis. Yes. This one, though, I don't know that there's an equal to it. I think we, this is one I think we just read word for word.

A gang of monkeys attacked a laboratory assistant and escaped with a batch of coronavirus test samples. The bizarre incident saw the troop of primates launched their assault near Myrout Medical College in Delhi, India. According to local media, the animals then snatched cross. COVID-19 test samples from three patients and fled. Wow. Wow. One of the monkeys was later spotted in a tree chewing one of the sample collection kits. It is the latest example.

Now again, just think of that part of the sentence. The latest example. They're about to tell you that this is happening a lot. It is the latest example of the. highly intelligent red-faced monkeys taking advantage of India's nationwide lockdown to combat the spread of coronavirus.

While they have proved an increasing problem in urban areas of the country in recent years, lockdown measures in the last two months have emboldened the monkeys. Reports have shown them congregating in parts of Delhi normally crowded with humans. The animals have

adapted to live in close contact with people and it is believed some groups have struggled in the absence of food that they've come to rely on. People had been advised not to feed the monkeys while the pandemic continues, with experts suggesting doing so could cause the virus to mutate and infect primates. A senior biologist from the forest department

warned that if this did happen, the mutated virus could have a devastating impact on primate species and other wildlife. And they actually have pictures of the monkeys who have all climbed on board a motorcycle. I mean, I can't you not? The monkeys are on a motorcycle. Now, they don't show it driving,

but I would not be surprised if that's the next story. But the actually, I mean, we talk about the Wuhan lab having issues. I think those monkeys were at least dead and bats were dead. These monkeys are alive, taking the samples and eating them.

So, I, I mean, if you don't think there's another pandemic right around the corner, I can't help you. I can't help you. Seems like there's going to be some sick monkeys sometime soon. I guess so. Right, unless they've already got the antibodies. And I don't know if they've been tested or not. They could be immune.

I guess it may be immune. I guess it may be, you know. And you know, talked about how intelligent these monkeys are. How smart can they be? They're eating the virus. That seems stupid to me, okay? Tell me monkeys. Morons.

Stupid. Morons. Oh, my gosh. What a, what a freaking world. What a weird story. And there is this strange thing that's happening as part of, of the shutdown where these areas that are normally highly, you know, filled with people are now not. And animals are venturing out.

They're like, you know what? We're going to take this land back. We've been waiting for this opportunity a long time, stupid humans. You're all inside. You're all on your little Netflix and your Xboxes. What are we doing? Taking over the country. There was another story this week or maybe it was last week about, I think,

it was dolphins that are finding stuff in the ocean and bringing it to the shore with their, you know, little mouths and dumping it there, hoping that it'll be a present for the humans that they miss coming to the, to the area all the time. I think they're, I'm not sure where that is. It's, uh, somewhere in the U.S. And I forget where it was, but dolphins are doing the same thing. They're, they're like missing human company. And so they're trying to bribe humans to come back. Look, here's a bottle that I found. You can have it if you come back.

Oh, that's great. Yeah. I mean, it's weird because I'm not missing humans really at all. No, I'm not either. I am not either. I haven't had that urge. I haven't brought any presents to humans to lure them back into my presence. No.

I'd rather kind of just stay away. You know, the roads have been, although they're starting to get crowded again. Yes. On the freeways of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Yeah, there's a certain brand of elitism that Pat and, and I belong to and have experience over the past few months, which is as essential workers, we are able to travel to work every day and have not changed. That hasn't changed for us at all. Like a lot of people, about 90% of the people that usually work here or not here. And,

but, you know, with us coming in, we're doing the show every day. And you start to get used to. There's no traffic. Right. Doesn't matter when you come or when you go home. because it's light traffic. The downside of this is worse than the upside for us, unfortunately. Yes. However, it is something that you do notice. And you notice around here too, like now that restaurants have opened and if you're, you know, we live in Texas.

So it is difficult, I think, for us to relate to certain areas of the country with, you know, if you've got, you know, Whitmer as your governor, like, it's hard for us in Texas to even relate to that world right now. But, you know, restaurants are open, but you can get into any of them. You know, there's, it's not hard to get to. places, even though they're at 25% capacity, you can get in. Everything is easy here in this period. There's a period where nothing was open and that was obviously, you know, very challenging.

Now things are open and no one's going to them and still there's no one on the road. Yeah. It's a nice, this in between areas is in one or two ways really nice. Today in Texas, zoos are opening as are water parks, which really kind of blew me away. Yeah. Wow. Water parks to 25% capacity. but still, that's a water park? That's a big step.

One of the things that's interesting about all these 25% capacity things and rules that have come out is a lot of people, I think, look at, okay, they have these people sitting at these tables and then they're going to have 25% of the tables. But remember, it's the capacity of the restaurant. Yeah. So like a capacity of a restaurant is hundreds of people, usually. The capacity of a water park?

I mean, how many people can you fit in a water park? A lot of people. A lot. It's thousands, right? Yeah. But I actually think, you know, and I've made this decision. You know, sometimes we say things on the air. You want to make sure that we actually believe them.

I bought a season pass for the water park for my kids yesterday. Wow. Why? Yeah. Outdoors. Yep. Chlorinated water. Okay. Right?

Should kill stuff that's in it. Very well ventilated. Yeah. I actually think the water park thing should be pretty safe. Now, I'm not a doctor and I might be killing my children. I hope I'm not. But I bet there's a month. much better chance of them drowning on the water slide than there is for them actually getting COVID-19

in that environment. It would be a very difficult thing to figure out a way to get COVID-19 in an outdoor water park. Would you go this weekend? We are, we are talking about going tomorrow. Yeah? Yeah. So I'll let you know how it goes. I'm on vacation next week. I guarantee we're going to get there next week. Very cool. All right, AAA 727 BECK.

The G-Od against civil asset forfeiture in this country. Got another case of it where a guy lost $138,000 to the authorities at Logan International Airport in Boston. Now, he missed a flight and then rescheduled for the same day. and then he was going through security and I guess he had a ton of money on him and they asked him how much he had and at first he said $1,500 and that turned out not to be the case then he said okay yeah it's somewhere between 40 and $50,000 in cash I have on me and that turned out not to be the case and then he said okay I'm actually carrying between

$80 and $85,000 and that turned out not to be the case he actually had the He eventually learned he had $138,980 in cash. Now, why did they ask him about this and why did they learn it? These are really good questions. He was going through security and apparently for some reason they had a police dog there, police dog named Duke. And Duke, quote, showed a strong alert to the man's belongings, unquote. Now, the dog is trained to detect narcotics. He didn't have any narcotics on him,

but he hit on apparently the cash. Maybe the cash was around narcotics? I don't know. But he was also, the other suspicious aspect of this is that authorities have identified the place he was flying to as a source area for illegal narcotics. Okay. What?

Yeah, a source area. for illegal narcotics. What does that mean? Does that mean he's flying to Mexico or Colombia or something like that? But like I don't think just because you bring money

to a country that drugs are a problem doesn't necessarily mean you're going to buy drugs in that country. Yeah, my understanding is you need to catch the person buying the drugs within your borders for you to do something like this. Right.

Would you say that that estimation is correct? That's correct. And I would say that what they did instead was a future crime situation where they took the guy's money and said, see ya. They took, they confiscated $138,000.

Now, was it suspicious? Because he lied about how much he had. I guess. And he was going to a source area for illegal drugs. So what? On all of those accounts. Every area is a source area for illegal drugs. Every area unless it's Antarctica.

I don't know. Like, if you're flying to Miami, does that count? If you're going to Jeffie's house, That's definitely a source area for illegal drugs. And that's on our passports. Should we arrest everybody going to Jeffie's house? Well, yes, I do. Yes, probably. That would make sense.

That would make a lot of sense. Including Jeffrey, by the way. It is. That's a really bad thing. I'm so tired of this. You can't do this in America. No. You can't do this.

You can't. And why would you lie about how much money? I don't know. Maybe because you're afraid they're going to take it for no reason. That's right. Because they've been doing that for years now. And ever since the civil asset forfeiture began, and police continue to say,

well, yeah, it's a really valuable tool in the war on drugs. I don't care. Stop it. This needs to stop. It's completely unconstitutional. And I don't know how this has not been challenged. I think it's one of those things where we like the results of it in a lot of cases. So we overlook the fact that it's a little bit unconstitutional.

And people, a tad. People look at a guy like this who's at, well, he was obviously going to go do something illegal. Right. Well, it might look like that. You might have a suspicion. That's not how we put people in jail and that's not how we take their property.

You can't just say it looks like he might do something sometimes. You've got to catch him doing something. Yeah. I mean, and this is the same argument you hear from people when they're like, well, I don't care if they listen to my phone calls and they take all my metadata. I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm not doing anything wrong. Yeah. You're not the one who decides whether or not what you're doing is wrong.

Like this guy. Yeah. What is it wrong to carry $130? Is it illegal to carry $138,000 in cash with you? No. No, it is not. It's your money. If I have it, I could carry $50 million in cash with me,

and you shouldn't be able to do anything about that. But guess what would happen if you try to bring $50 million through an airport? It would get confiscated. It would be confiscated. Unless you were Jeffrey Epstein, and then they'd probably let you go. You know? Yes. But, I mean, really, it's one of those things where we've had the same issue with,

with withdrawals from bank accounts where people will withdraw. There was a story again. This one was a criminal, but he was withdrawing just under $10,000 every few weeks because the government said if you withdraw over $10,000, they're going to report it to central authorities because they are worried about big withdrawals like that. So he was pulling out $9,500, whatever it was every two weeks.

Then they went and arrested him because they said, we see what you're doing. when you're pulling out less than the limit, but just a little bit less. So therefore, we're going to report you for that too. It's like, well, that's not even... Again, like, they do catch criminals all the time with this stuff. Yeah.

However, that's not enough to justify it. No, it is not. And Americans are just rolling over and playing dead for it. I don't understand it. We should be... We should be standing up and saying this is unacceptable, and it's got to stop. Out here at the ranch,

I've been cooking on my rec deck grill. Yeah, just like the country. Cowboys used to, except they used a fire that they had to chop wood for, and then they cooked it on the back of a chuck wagon.

It's Pat and Stufer Glenn, who's on vacation this week. their new polling data out still showing Biden in the lead? Yeah. Is this a Fox News poll? Fox News poll finds a...

President's not going to be happy about it. No, he will not. Not going to be happy. Joe Biden 48, Donald Trump 40. The average of all polls right now, 4841, which Biden is up. So he's supposedly up by seven points. Yep. Despite the fact that he's clearly, there's something wrong with him.

Right. And this is. because it's amazing to see when you ever you see him you're like how is this guy have 1% of the vote little like 48 right this they're going back

and Harry Anton went through and compared this to 2016 so in 2016 Trump was was down by 10 points at the end of the primary closed it to 6

at the first half of April and the second half of April it closed it to 4 and then in May closed it to 1 he was down by a Fox News had a similar poll May 16th through May 23rd of 2016 Clinton trailed Trump by three points trailed Trump by three points in 2016 Biden is up by eight in the same poll this year now I think there's a lot of factors

playing into that and a lot of people will just dismiss all polling which I don't think is the right thing to do a lot of people will also say well you know general election polling doesn't count so early in the election and that I do agree with we're just getting to the point where it's not early in the election anymore. We're getting to, I mean, it's June almost. I mean, there's only a few months here, guys, before this election actually occurs, assuming we're allowed to go out of our houses here. So these polls start to become interesting to look at.

Remember, the national poll average missed the popular vote in 2016 by less that, or just over two points. It goes 2.1%. It's not a crazy miss. They missed in certain states. Obviously, Trump won. Obviously, the experts believed Trump was going to lose, so they were wrong. But the national polling average actually wasn't that bad in 2016.

That doesn't mean that Biden is actually up by eight or nine or seven. My thought on that is people have just not started focusing on this yet. It has not been part of the way they've internalized the news. They're looking at coronavirus. They're looking at all of these other separate issues. And there has not been a focus. of the people on the election, and there hasn't been the focus of Trump on Biden.

Trump has surely mentioned Biden here and there, but that has not been what he's been doing. He's been trying to run the pandemic response and all of these other economic issues. So I don't think you can look at this and say, well, Donald Trump doesn't have a chance or anything like that. I mean, I think he could turn this around in a week,

a good week of news could turn these polls around. But it is interesting to look at the strategy of the Democrats is to make you believe, Joe Biden is not the candidate. They want to hide him from you and from every other voter so that you don't consider the fact that the person that might be in the White House can barely get through a sentence. That is the strategy of the Democrats. And as they get closer to picking a VP, all these things are going to be incredibly important.

And you will learn a lot about what they're thinking because if they pick Stacey Abrams, you know, they are thinking we need to move to the left. and they're also, you might get the sense that Biden is thinking in his head, I'm going to be sticking around and making it through a couple terms, or at least one. Because they're not going to just, no one, I don't think anybody thinks Stacey Abrams can step in on day one. If you pick someone who has a little bit more experience, then you, or someone in the middle, you could see they might be targeting that part of the electorate and saying, man, maybe Biden's only in here for half a term. I think that pick is going to be very revealing for the campaign. For sure.

Yes. and should be very revealing to the American people, very frightening depending on who he picks. I don't see a pick that's good. No. There aren't any good picks for him. So, yeah. Plus, the election might be done by mail-in. And that adds another really fun element to it.

There's much more after the break on the Glenn Beck program. Glenn Beck program with Pat and Stu today. 727 B-E-C-K is our phone number. There's an interesting poll done where they asked Americans during the coronavirus outbreak,

would you say prohibiting in-person religious services violates freedom of religion in the United States? So to be in person, to go to church and just be together at church, yes, it does violate religious freedom. Only 21% of Democrats said yes. 77% said no it doesn't. For Republicans, 49% said, yes, it does violate religious freedom. 51% said no. So even a majority of Republicans said it does not violate freedom of religion.

For all adults, it was 66 to 34. No, it does not over yes. You talk to an expert about this, right? Yeah, this very thing. Jeremy Dice from First Liberty. he's been on my show and News and Why Matters, but on this show as well over the years. A really good guy

and a guy who's been fighting for religious liberty in basically every circumstance this is what these guys do for a living. And he, I brought him on to talk about this exact question because it was the time where one of the pastors was I'm having service anyway and he got arrested and brought in

or whatever. They shut him down. And I kind of thought his take would be of course it violates violates religious liberty. That's honestly what I thought he was going to say. No matter the circumstance. No matter the circumstance. Yes. Because my take on it was, look, it does violate religious liberty. What you can do as the state and what you can do as a community is ask really nicely. Yeah. Recommend. Recommend. Say, please don't do it. And you can give all the facts and make,

give the best information. And say people will die in your congregation if you do this. Yes. That's what we believe. And that's what the science tells us at this point. And we're very scared for you and your community, but we can't stop you because we have the First Amendment. Right. Right. And so what's going to happen in that situation? Probably 95% of the congregation is going to stay home and try to watch it online or do something else, right? That's what has happened all across America, really. There hasn't been a lot of these cases where churches have tried to do this. Some have tried with, and there hasn't been tons of cases even where governors have cracked down on it. There's been a few and they're important. So his, his, his take basically was that over time, these things have been challenged over and over again. And what they've shown is the government has a limited power to restrict citizens' movements in an emergency for a short period of time. Including religious services. Okay. But for a very limited amount of time.

And also, they have to lean to the. to the side of being open. So if they can figure out a way to allow a church to open, the government has to side that way. Like that one congregation did where they had the church service in their vehicles, right? The drive-in church. My mom's church was doing that, and they stayed open the entire time.

She's in Georgia, and they did have a drive-up service. But was it Tennessee that cracked down on that? I thought it was Kentucky. It might have been Kentucky. Yeah, I thought it was Kentucky. But it's happened in a few places. But the government doesn't have power to crack down like it's very much a very limited temporary power.

What does that mean exactly? Very limited. How long a time is okay. Yeah. I mean, that's the problem, right? There's not a, it's not like you have two months, right? Two months? A year? What does that mean? It's not defined. Should be. From what I understand in the way, and maybe you know, you're going to have, you're in here this week next week with Glenn. I'm on vacation next week. Maybe it'd be worth having Jeremy in. if we'd to talk this out because he has it, you know, he's much smarter than I am on this stuff. But his point was basically that as soon as there's an argument that it makes sense, they have to side with that argument. So as soon as like, okay, if you're saying that we've gotten, we've flattened the curve, right?

Yeah. They can no longer do it. If you were to say, you could do it in cars or you can do it, you know, we're spread out in a field where you're just not near each other. All of the sort of options, you have to side with the religious freedom. though there is a quarantine sort of power built into the government for a limited period.

Wow. Which is interesting. Yeah, it's interesting. I wouldn't think there is. Right. And what if there, because I said to him was like, I, if you were to say to me, can the government come in and take my guns during quarantine or during Hurricane Katrina? Yeah. I would say absolutely not.

Right. Right. But they did it. But they did it. Can the government come in and tell me I can't go to. church, my take on that would be absolutely not. But they did it. They can recommend it. They can say seriously, guys, be cool.

Please don't go. And most people are going to listen if it's for a rational period of time because they don't want to get sick. And they want, they want this to go away. Yeah. But can you force them? My take on that would be no. Mine too. The legal system's take on that is apparently yes, but in a very limited fashion, which probably has already expired.

But again, the thing is you go back to the governor. of New Jersey and the question that was asked of him by Tucker Carlson. By what authority did you nullify the Bill of Rights? I called up Cardinal Tobin. Cardinal Joe Tobin and North. So if you've called called up Cardinal Joe Tobin and you asked him and he said, no, it doesn't violate the First Amendment, then you're okay. Right.

You're okay. I think that's the final deciding. I'm glad because I actually have a T-shirt that says that on there, which is interesting. I just found it online. Yeah? Yeah, I didn't know what it meant, but I just figured like, this guy must know what's going on. He does. He knows exactly what's going on.

And he can let you know whether or not it's constitutional. And if you can violate the Bill of Rights. Right. So. That's, it's an interesting line. I guess you can. If Joe. If Cardinal Joe Tobin of Newark says it.

Now there's a Cardinal Joe Tobin in Des Moines. He's not the authority. No, he has no constitutional power whatsoever. Yeah, that's true. I'm glad we now know that. By the way, Pat, we should point out that we have decided today to do something incredibly risky. You, I just said, I mean, flippantly, that you were going to be in with Glenn next week. There's no guarantee of that, frankly.

Very true, based on what we've decided to try. Yeah. I mean, because, you know, our shows are on YouTube. And we've been trying to understand YouTube a little bit. and what we've seen is that people like, you know, sort of death-defying stunts, you know, people risking their lives, taking their lives into their own hands. Some people have actually been killed while doing those death-defying stunts. Right.

And we can't rule that out for us today. No, can't. It's immediately following this show, we are going to risk our lives. And we can't tell you all the details about it because if we do, the police will go there, they'll shut it down. We can't do that. It has to be under the Under the radar here.

Yeah, lawyers would get involved. It would just, it would be ugly. Yeah. You know, because the insurance wouldn't cover it. Certainly. Yes. No, there's no chance. Kind of risky action we're taking today.

So I'm sure they'd stop us. Yeah. They probably would. And we can't risk that because we want to do this. We're committed to it now. I've built up all the mental energy to actually do this. So if you go to YouTube, just search for Stu.

You'll get my channel. And as soon as we get to commercials here, we're going to launch a live video. And we're going to walk you through this entire thing. You'll see a little bit of the back and forth here on the radio show first. And as soon as the show ends, we're going to go do this thing. We can't disclose all of it.

I just will tell you that it is something that is very risky and something that basically nobody in America is doing. Nobody else is doing this. And for the most part, nobody can do this. We have certain privileges that we can't exactly disclose. Right. That allows Pat and I to be able to do this particular activity. I just, I do worry that it will get shut down anyway.

Because once you go on the live feed, people are going to be able to see what roads you're going down. Maybe they'll get there to stop it. But we're just going to take that on as it comes. So go to YouTube and search for Stu. Check out, Stu Does America, We're going to be have a live feed there where Stu does certain death with Pat. Death is definitely possible on this one, Pat.

I'm very nervous about it. Go check it out. It's frightening. We're going to start the feed here in just a second. AAA 727 Beck is the phone number. Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program, AAA 727BECK. Here's another fascinating story about a huge amount of money that was, in this particular case

it was not confiscated by police but it was found in the middle of the road a million dollars in cash just found in the middle of the road by a family a million dollars one million dollars in cash in a bunch of bags like mail bags I guess

and they were just going to take it home and throw it away what? Yeah they just thought it was junk that fell off of somebody's truck or whatever I'm going to say they saw the million dollars No, they didn't see the million dollars yet. So on the way out to the garbage can, he thought,

I can just check and see what's in here. I'm going to say, if you're just going to throw away a million dollars, I know inflation's bad. I didn't know it was that bad. Right. Right. But no, one million dollars in cash was in,

was contained in these bags. There were several of them. And they turned it into the police. You have to ask yourself, would I turn it into the police if I found a, million dollars in cash? It would be tempting. It would be tempting.

Really tempting to keep it, wouldn't it? Because how is that going to be traced back to you? They found it in some ditch on the road. Some of it was in the middle of the road. And then there was another bag in the ditch. And you didn't have anybody's name on it. It wasn't obviously belonging to anyone. Right.

I would be, look, as a person of character, I would be there to turn in the $300,000 I found. I think that's the right. thing to do. I would, yeah, definitely the, the 10 grand in cash that you found. Look at, I found this 10 grand. It was just laying on the road. I feel like you could say, you could legitimately say like, I found $950,000. When someone comes to the gang, they're like, hey, we dropped a million dollars. Well, someone did just turn in 10,000. I feel like it might be a little bit obvious what you're doing. Or you don't turn in a single penny and you just keep it.

And then they never know. And then they never know. And then they, never know, right? It would, it would be hard, wouldn't it? I mean, I hope. Because it's life changing money, right? I think, yes, that is life changing. That's life changing, maybe generational changing money. Yes. Not in 2020, but like, you know, 19, way back in like 2019, they probably would be life changing money. Yeah, there was a time when a million dollars, it was a lot of money. I spent a million dollars at Subway yesterday. So now it's not like that. Yeah, it's not a big deal. But it is, it would be very tempting. I think. Very. I think you'd, I think I would turn it in.

It might take me a day. I would turn it in, but I would definitely have some, I'd have some reservations about turning it in. It might take me a little bit of time to figure out how to get to the police station. Right. You know, I mean. But when you think about it, I mean, doesn't that solve? A million dollars solves pretty much every, every problem. Every financial problem you have, right?

Yeah. You're not in debt anymore. You can do pretty much what you want. There was actually a famous philosopher who said, Mo Money, Moe problems. And I don't know if that's true. Huh. You know, because I think, and I think Mo was short for more.

Oh. So more money. Uh-huh. And more problems. Didn't mean some guy named Mo would have a lot of problems. No, it does not. That's my understanding of it. I'm not a philosopher.

Okay. But there was the guy, you know, we talked about him, I think, randomly earlier this week, the guy who was on Press Your Luck and figured out the board. Oh, yeah. And won like $160,000. And there's all sorts of stories about how he was just like, you know, he lost a bunch of it. He lost a bunch of it in investments. He lost a bunch of it in other bizarre scams where he tried to turn.

I think he was the guy who tried to turn in like $10,000 to the bank to get $1 bills. So he could win a radio contest with the serial number. You know those contests that used to run all the time? They'd be like, if you have the serial number on your dollar bill, we'll give you $1,000 or a million dollars or whatever. And he found one of those contests that he thought would pay off. So he got 10,000 singles and went through all of them. Did not win. fortunately.

Wow. And I think someone stole a bunch of money out of his car because he didn't have it in the bank. Like it was a lot of times the million dollar thing doesn't solve all your problems, but it should solve a lot of the financial ones. Yes, it should. And I think it would. So that, I mean, very tempting. Very tempting.

But good for this family because they did the right thing and they turned it into the sheriff's department. And I will say there's an extra layer on this for you and I because we could be leaving our families in who knows what kind of situation right after today. Right now we're on YouTube live. If you go to YouTube, search for Stu. I'll be the first show there. You'll see Stu Does America, the page.

If you go there, we've got a live video going right now. We're doing behind the scenes of radio and we're about to leave and walk out for a death-defying. I mean, stunt, I don't know is the right term. Because stunt makes it seems like it's a controlled environment. This is not. This is not a controlled environment. It's something that is legitimately risky.

But I know that's the culture we have. now. You have to push the envelope all the time if you want people to pay attention to what you're doing. If you want people to subscribe to your YouTube channel, that's what you have to do. Yeah. That's our understanding anyway. Yeah. I wouldn't say we're good at this, but I think this, we have come, everyone's in a while you come across a really good idea. And I think the drama here is going to be pretty significant. You know, obviously I hope we make it. I've talked to my wife about it. You know, we've had discussions with our families. You know, I'm not being flippant about doing this thing, which again, we can't tell you the details of because

they would stop it. They would stop it. But I think we're going to be okay. And I think you'll be back on next week with Glenn when he returns from his vacation on Monday. I think. Hopefully. I hope. Yeah. I cannot guarantee it at this time. There are no guarantees in life. No. And especially when you're doing something this risky. Yep. There's just no guarantees. So follow us on on YouTube and check it out. We're going to, it's on live right now. You can watch us.

We're going to bring you right over to the area that has been marked off for this purpose. And do something that is risking, risking our lives. And again, Cardinal Joe Tobin doesn't care. Wow. He couldn't care less.
