Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a great civil rights leader and apostle of non-violence in the civil rights movement of the 1960s and 70s. He was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee on April 14, 1968, while delivering a sermon at the Lorraine Motel.
00:14:02.640We all say it doesn't have to be this way.
00:14:08.640We all are tired of arguing with each other.
00:14:13.640I don't know a single soul that wants to see a bad cop.
00:14:25.640That wants to see a cop beat a man, shoot a man.
00:14:32.640And I don't know a soul that wants to see anyone beat or shoot a good cop.
00:14:47.640Another thing that made America different is that for the most part, we had never had a government that came between us.
00:15:04.640We had never had a government that told us that our enemy was our neighbor, that we should watch out for them, that we shouldn't trust them.
00:15:23.640I suppose we had that in the 1830s with Andrew Jackson, but he was talking about non-citizens, of course.
00:15:34.640He was talking about the Native American.
00:15:41.640I suppose we had that under the English and until Abraham Lincoln, where we were told that blacks weren't fully human, certainly not American.
00:16:00.640We had that in World War I, when we were told that Germans, and later in World War II, when we were told that Japanese needed to be rounded up, even though they were American citizens.
00:16:21.640Somehow or another, though, we always escaped.
00:16:24.640Somehow or another, we still in the end came back together.
00:16:29.640I know people think this might, this is corny.
00:16:36.640But I still believe in the American people.
00:18:41.640Or you can own this system at an unbelievably inexpensive price and pay $14.99 a month and cancel at any time because there is no contract.
00:18:52.640The only security that you should have in your house is SimpliSafe.
00:20:19.640You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
00:20:30.640Jason Betrill is our chief researcher.
00:20:34.640He was with military intelligence for quite a while during the war and and has been with me now for about five years and is following a few stories for us that are kind of the longer term stories.
00:20:48.640One of them is absolutely perplexing, and that is the Vegas shooting.
00:20:54.640This is the the the biggest shooting in American history.
00:21:02.640It is also a shooting that didn't happen in 1956.
00:21:09.640It's more well documented than any other shooting in American history because of the number of cell phones and it happened in a Vegas casino.
00:21:20.640The number of cameras in a Vegas casino are endless.
00:21:27.640And yet we know less about the shooter and what happened than I think most convenience store crimes.
00:21:37.640We have not seen any footage from inside.
00:21:48.640Now, remember, Friday is is known if you're in the news business.
00:21:51.640Friday is known as a day you dump stories that you don't want anybody to talk about because it'll come out on a Friday, usually in the afternoon.
00:21:59.640And then that leaves that for a Saturday report or a Friday night report on television and Saturday in the press.
00:22:09.640Maybe it gets to Sunday, but by Monday, nobody's talking about it.
00:22:15.640A real dump happens on a Friday of a holiday weekend.
00:22:21.640So by the time it happened, by the time it's a Tuesday.
00:22:26.640Really, you're guaranteed that no one is picking that story up again.
00:22:30.640That's when they dumped this story, this update, which is even more confusing and makes things worse.
00:22:39.640In Vegas and Jason is here to tell us what they what they released on Friday, Jason.
00:22:43.640So they unsealed some court documents that talked about what the FBI was going after some of their some of their, you know, requests for information and some of the things that some of the leads are going after.
00:22:56.640And one of them centered around there.
00:22:59.640They had these three cell phones that were in his room.
00:23:02.640And this is this is what I thought was was really, really interesting, because he had these three.
00:23:06.640I'm just calling them burner phones because that's what it sounded like.
00:23:09.640One of them they have not been able to get into.
00:23:12.640They have not been able to get into it.
00:23:14.640And they said it was a Google operating system.
00:23:16.640And I guess it's encrypted, but they they cannot get into that phone.
00:23:19.640Now, think about it during the San Bernardino attack.
00:23:21.640They, I think, got a hacker, you know, to break into that phone.
00:23:25.640No, it was a big it was it was front page news every day for a week.
00:23:30.640They were didn't they threaten to take Apple to court?
00:23:49.640I mean, this is the FBI we're talking about.
00:23:52.640Like you would think that they would have found a way like they had the smarts enough to go outside the box, you know, and get a hacker to do this for them.
00:23:59.640They apparently could not do that for this phone.
00:24:01.640But the point is, is that he was communicating with someone, someone.
00:24:05.640Now, not only that, but he was taking I can't remember the direct quote, but crazy steps to thwart the investigation after the fact.
00:24:13.640That's why he was using these burner phones.
00:24:15.640He was using he was using email accounts to, like, communicate back and forth to either himself or to other people that we don't know.
00:24:41.640But what they do is they compose an email to themself.
00:24:43.640It never gets sent, but they compose a draft email to themself.
00:24:47.640And I'm speculating on this part, because I don't know that's what they did, what he did, but they compose a draft email and they save it there.
00:24:54.640Now, whoever else will have the login credentials for that account and they can access that anywhere.
00:25:00.640So it never actually goes over the airway.
00:25:02.640Another way that this was utilized was General Petraeus.
00:26:03.640Now, I've studied these cases from my last job before when I was with a threat assessment and protection company as well when I was in the military.
00:26:10.640But assassins do not follow this type of profile.
00:26:14.640This is not the profile of an assassin that just wants to become famous.
00:33:25.640If you own a home and you have some equity refinancing to consolidate and pay off your debt can make life a whole lot easier.
00:33:32.640But when you go into consolidate alone, is that the right option for you?
00:33:39.640Is that the best way? Great way to tell is just make a 10 minute phone call to the salary based mortgage consultants at American financing.
00:33:49.640I point out that they're salary based because it's important for you to know that most places like this, they give bonuses if you give out certain kinds of loans.
00:33:58.640So they're always working for their bonus.
00:34:01.640They're always working to get you into something that the bank is pushing.
00:34:04.640This is not the case with American financing.
00:34:06.640They make recommendations based on your financial goals and those things that make sense for you.
00:34:14.640So if you are paying off your high interest debt, maybe you're realizing you're still paying a few hundred extra dollars unnecessary PMI because you've reached the threshold for removal.
00:34:24.640Whatever the case, American financing can review your current mortgage and look to options that may lower your monthly payments or help you achieve a better financial status.
00:35:10.640I want to ask Jason Betrill, who's our head researcher and former military intelligence, a couple of things.
00:35:16.640First of all, in relation to Uranium One, there was another news dump that happened on Friday.
00:35:21.640And that is that Mark Lambert, the former co-president of the Maryland-based shipping company, was charged with 11 count indictment.
00:35:33.640Charges include one count of conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, also wire fraud, international promotion of money laundering.
00:35:43.640This ties back to Uranium One, Hillary Clinton, and the Russians, which we are going to be exposing and explaining next week in a chalkboard.
00:35:54.640Any thoughts on this one, Jason, quickly?
00:35:56.640I'm curious if this new FBI informant had anything to do with this at all.
00:36:00.640He knew that he was coming forward and allowed to speak for the very first time.
00:36:03.640So I wonder if he is starting to spill the beans and maybe there's going to be more things that come out over this, some juicy details.
00:36:08.640Maybe this is the domino one of a big, long chain.
00:38:04.640Why hasn't a flood of information hit the public by now?
00:38:07.640I mean, in this day and age, when leaks to the media drop almost daily, we haven't seen a single frame of security camera footage of the shooter inside the hotel.
00:38:49.640Much of what has to do with the steps that the shooter took to keep everything secret is just starting to come out.
00:38:58.640The FBI said that the shooter planned the attack, quote, meticulously and took many methodical steps to avoid detection of his plot and to thwart the eventual law enforcement investigation that would follow, end quote.
00:39:34.640If there was no motive for the attack, if it was just a deranged man with a gambling debt, who was he talking to via multiple email accounts and secret burner phones?
00:39:46.640After this new dump of information, the explanation that we've been given does not fit the profile.
00:39:52.640Assassins don't do these type of attacks.
00:39:55.640They don't worry about the follow up investigation.
00:39:58.640To the contrary, they want people to know.
00:40:01.640This suggests the shooter was protecting someone.
00:40:06.640Court documents revealed for the first time that she actually helped the gun gunman load some of the magazines and she deleted her Facebook page right after the attack before he was known to be involved.
00:40:19.640Did she know the attack was going to happen?
00:41:46.640I think all of us would welcome see come together.
00:41:51.640But for some reason, it seems like there are forces that want to keep us all apart.
00:41:57.640Alton Sterling was killed by a by the police in Louisiana.
00:42:02.640If you remember that horrible video, he was down on the ground and the police officer just pulled out his gun and put it to his chest and and shot him.
00:42:14.640And this is what sparked a lot of the violence.
00:42:19.640And the reason why three officers were killed in Baton Rouge shortly thereafter.
00:42:28.640Alton's family coming together with two of the widows of the slain police officers to find reconciliation.
00:42:41.640And the man who is is putting it all together is is here with us now.
00:42:48.640He started urban specialists, urban specialists.
00:43:24.640Thank you, because we need that affirmation.
00:43:26.640But what we're basically doing is what you describe in the course correction.
00:43:30.640It is saying that there is a way that we can reach a higher ground.
00:43:34.640And the way we reach it is we have to share each other's pain and not point at those who are in pain and say it may be your fault.
00:43:40.640You got to figure out where do we have that commonality and no greater no greater pain is that in the lose a loved one instantly.
00:43:48.640And see, for the last 20 years, I've been working in the area of gang intervention and youth violence.
00:43:53.640So I've seen how death can become that that that sting that never goes away.
00:43:59.640And so you just kind of bury it and you hide it and you just kind of move on and you never really heal.
00:44:06.640And so the way you heal is you got to expose a little bit of that pain.
00:44:10.640And then you find others who are going through the same thing.
00:44:13.640And then we join together and say, let's heal together through a shared process of coming together and using our conversations to build and not tear down.
00:44:23.640So Martin Luther King talked about reconciliation and he refused to use the language of winning and losing because for one side to win, the other side has to lose.
00:49:00.640But I think that what happens is a person can get so emotional in the pain that they are suffering that they actually don't believe that healing is possible.
00:49:12.640And so you get comfortable with a limp.
00:49:14.640And when someone says it may take you doing rehabilitation, but you can walk again or you can walk better.
00:49:20.640You say, I'm OK with this limp because it's easier for me to find others who are limping just like me.
00:49:26.640And so we all can compare limbs, you know, and rehabilitation takes some effort on the on the part of the person who wants to be healed, who wants to be better.
00:49:35.640I mean, no greater witness than someone who has to walk through it.
00:49:39.640I mean, the two young ladies from Baton Rouge, Tanya and Tranisha, who are widows of great fallen officers who, in my opinion, are so they are so desperately hopeful that my job is to make sure that their hope don't leave without a witness.
00:50:04.640I have to be a witness to them so that they can witness to others that they are remarkable.
00:50:10.640They're going to be joining us here in a few minutes.
00:50:12.640Yeah. And and, you know, the way they are in truth.
00:50:15.640I mean, you know, the light that they shine when I met them, I met them through a young man and watch this.
00:50:21.640It was a guy named Clay, Clay Young in Baton Rouge, who is a business guy, young guy who said, I don't want my city to go like this.
00:50:30.640You know, it's one hundred and three murders that has happened in Baton Rouge in one year.
00:50:35.640And he just decided this is not this is not how this is supposed to be.
00:50:40.640And so he started getting people from the north and the south rich and the poor and the preachers.
00:50:44.640And so let's just go walk the community, knock on doors and say, how can we help?
00:50:48.640And it was through him. I said, who what's the light?
00:50:52.640He said, man, one thing that lights me up is Tranisha and Tanya.
00:50:55.640And he introduced me to them and their passion led me to say, I got to let the world see that they've been in pain, but they have not given up.
00:52:41.640This is exactly the experience that I had with blinds.com and my wife did all of the ordering and everything else because I didn't want them to know that I was.
00:52:50.640I didn't want any kind of special treatment or anything else.
00:52:53.640I wanted to call them cold exactly the way you would.
00:52:56.640I wanted to go online exactly the way and I had the best customer service.
00:53:01.640And I will tell you, after we met with the design specialist on online, I wasn't involved.
00:53:08.640I didn't tell him my name until the very end.
00:54:45.640And and I got to believe that's a that's not an easy sell.
00:54:53.640Oh, I mean, I mean, I mean, to tell the guy that your your characteristic is a market advantage, but your character needs to be transformed.
00:55:04.640That no matter how good you are at this, it will lead to your death or your permanent imprisonment.
00:55:10.640And for them to believe you, they have to first agree that you are a witness and that I'm not trying to use you for my gang.
00:55:17.640I'm trying to get you at your best height so you can do what God has called you to do.
00:55:21.640I mean, that was a very difficult sale.
00:55:23.640But at the end of the day, I'm lucky who you guys will see tonight.
00:55:28.640He has been the probably the most permanent example of transformation that I see.
00:55:34.640So when I want to see what redemption looks like, I look at him.
00:55:38.640Is this an event I can bring my kids to?
00:55:57.640So this is our flair that we're shooting up into the culture and saying, just look, look, look at what I see.
00:56:03.640I was I'm telling you, Glenn, when you see when you when you see the people because we've got so many people coming on stage and they are flawed.
00:56:58.640And when that becomes societal's catchphrase, well, I'll just and they deserve where you get into a dangerous ground because you you you said something earlier.
00:57:08.640I was listening to you that it was 58 people murdered in Las Vegas.
00:57:22.640But at the end of the day, it's because the culture has accepted this language of violence and annihilation as an acceptable form of dealing with conflict.
00:57:32.640And then when you can put them in bags is when you can label them to you, you can say, yeah, that's so he's on the right.
00:59:28.420I'm sure that this is one of the last places you want to be.
00:59:41.520And Trenesha, you are really, you have a heavy mantle to carry because we, all of us, I think, remember your husband's Facebook post.
00:59:54.260Uh, just a couple of days before he was killed.
00:59:57.600And if I can quote, I'm tired physically and emotionally disappointed in some family and friends and officers for some reckless comments, but what's in your heart is in your heart.
01:00:07.580I still love you because take a hate takes too much energy, but I definitely won't be looking at you the same.
01:00:14.980Um, I swear to God, I love this city, but I wonder if this city loves me.
01:00:19.540Uh, when I'm in uniform, I get nasty, hateful looks.
01:00:22.620I've experienced so much in my short life and these last three days have tested me to the core.
01:00:28.160Uh, look at my actions because they speak loud and clear.
01:00:31.180These are trying times, but please don't let hate infect your heart.
01:00:39.560So any protesters, officers, friends, family, or whoever, if you see me and you need a hug or you want to say a prayer, I got you.
01:00:47.740How did the two of you not let hate infect your heart after your husbands were taken?
01:00:59.600Like Montrell said, it takes too much energy.
01:01:02.140And we're already going through enough grief and pain that we just didn't need hate adding to that.
01:01:11.660And I feel as if his Facebook post was so prophetic and it was just what I needed to survive, not to let hate infect my heart.
01:01:25.460And so I've been doing that ever since he has closed his eyes.
01:01:29.600I have not been letting hate infect my heart.
01:01:32.600Even when it's times when I get upset and I'm angry, I go back and I read that post and I remember what he said, not to let hate infect my heart.
01:02:15.460However, when the Dallas incident happened, I had made a reef to represent the Dallas police.
01:02:23.020And he had actually sent it out through a mass email to the sheriff's office people and other law enforcement and saying that he was praying for them and that he had their six.
01:02:32.320So we were obviously in Dallas and my staff was down on the street when the shots rang out and the protesters were cowering behind trees and and cars with us.
01:02:52.460And, um, um, we started talking to each other because of that.
01:02:59.320And we, we actually heard each other, I think, for the first time.
01:03:05.740Um, what, what, what is it that you guys are expecting tonight come together and why are you here?
01:04:01.820Um, hoping to come together and learn something from one another, even though our pain is the same, but we could always learn something every day.
01:04:12.160And learning from their pain and them learning from our pain will definitely help.
01:04:18.060You're going to, um, you're going to meet the family of, of, uh, a man who was held down on the ground by police officers and then shot, um, in a horrific video.
01:05:23.480So I'm looking to see what I can learn from her and I'm hoping she's looking to see what she can learn from me because we both are hurting.
01:05:32.320Pastor, you know, and I'm just, so that's what I'm saying.
01:05:37.940Listening to them, it makes me say, stop playing, get serious with things that we take real serious and they're not for them to be able to speak on it and having, you know,
01:05:51.860this is not a long time, you know, a year ago, and they are here trying to figure out how we can be a part of something that they have experienced personally.
01:06:01.520It is just, it's, it's mind blowing to me.
01:06:04.520So I'm hoping that everyone sees them and feels what I feel, a sense of obligation to do what Montreal said.
01:06:14.200And I read it and, uh, and I, I, I know that this is the time I know that this is the moment I'm just, and I feel, and you know, again, my pastor.
01:06:24.580So in my spirit, I hear it, I hear the sound.
01:06:27.920I know it's time for us to do, to do this.
01:06:35.500I know it's been difficult because I know it's time and there are others who can gain from this moment is if we manage our emotions and get this message out, right, this could be a start of something.
01:06:48.660It's, it was a really difficult conversation, um, that we had here in the studios right after the Dallas shooting, um, because we, we brought in people who were protesting and we brought in people over the other side.
01:07:03.540Um, and, um, and, um, and, and to break through the rhetoric, to break through the stuff that you're reading online and, uh, I want to say from the people who, you know, there's some people that want to watch the world burn.
01:07:25.060And what we found is a lot of the people that were there were horrified by this and were, they were frightened for their own families and children just in a different way.
01:07:42.760But we had that in common that we weren't listening to each other.
01:07:48.480We weren't, they weren't hearing our fear.
01:07:51.580We weren't hearing their fear and all we were hearing was the rhetoric.
01:09:07.240I was on Facebook last night and, or Twitter and responding to some people who were just filled with, you're not a person because I disagree with you.
01:09:30.340That's why we're having this course correction.
01:09:31.940But I believe that there is a place where we have so many casualties of that type of behavior that we, even when we recover it, we will recover at a lower state than we were.
01:09:42.600You know, there's a time when things can become apocalyptic in the way we approach it.
01:09:48.380I mean, you can become the survival of the fittest.
01:09:51.280See, whenever you get into survival mode, then you can suspend rules.
01:10:59.320We had, we actually had, the day after the shooting, we brought the protesters and the police together.
01:11:07.040And it was a very emotional, very tough conversation.
01:11:10.580We got a lot of heat because we actually interviewed the family of the shooter and just listened to them and didn't glorify the shooter by any chance.
01:11:21.860But we really need to listen to each other.
01:11:24.880We really need to listen to each other.
01:12:27.520One, a family with a small child in a hotel room, cowering in the bathroom for 45 minutes as they were waiting to be possibly vaporized by a missile that never came.
01:12:41.860And a commander who was on his way home, he said he broke every traffic law to get home.
01:16:18.960DACA is dangerous to both political parties because they are legislating based on emotion when we should be legislating based on the Constitution.
01:16:30.220It's not the children of illegal immigrants fault that they are here.
01:16:34.380They are innocent, but their parents are not.
01:19:03.340We were about to, you know, utilize our additional time that we had to go down to the beach prior when we all of a sudden got a notification and picked up the phone.
01:19:12.860Now, it went off on my phone and my father's phone, who was up in the room with us while we're getting one together.
01:19:18.940And it just kind of throws off initially.
01:19:21.920I don't really know how to react when you have a notification like this.
01:19:28.020This is a very much very Cold War era kind of mentality where all of a sudden, you know, they're teaching kids to get under their desk.
01:19:36.720So, of course, you know, in this modern era, it's not something that we're prepared for to start conceptualizing.
01:19:44.780So, you know, initially I thought it was a mistake.
01:20:39.100I mean, you know, today's era of technology, when I saw this notification, the first thing in my head is, this can't be true.
01:20:45.180The second thing was, well, the U.S. has enough technology that if a missile was coming up,
01:20:49.280I would assume that they'd be able to knock it off, knock it out in the air prior to even coming to land.
01:20:55.560But then, I mean, you start playing the scenarios.
01:20:59.280Okay, so wait, how long did you live in that world before you started to go into, wait a minute?
01:21:05.600I think it took us all of about five to seven minutes, I would say, before I was just like, all right, nope, let's take a different route here.
01:21:18.160And you could tell, like, as minutes would go by, there was just, I felt a little bit more uncertainty, a little more distraught, a little more panic to it,
01:21:28.920to a point where I remember telling my parents in kind of a stern voice, like, you need to forget about your bags, grab your passports, grab your wallets, put your shoes on, we have to go.
01:21:40.820So, you know, in a very stern voice, and it was just at that point that I realized, like, you know, this could be for real.
01:21:49.280So, did you call or did you turn on the TV or the radio?
01:21:54.460Did you at all think this is not, it's not that it's, you know, that it's not going to happen, that the missiles, but that it was a hack or it was a joke or it was something?
01:22:05.500No, I mean, so, we definitely turn on the news kind of simultaneously.
01:22:11.680I think in our political environment right now, these are real, real potentials, you know?
01:22:19.380I would say, you know, we talk about hacking systems, whether it's a hack or not, you know, these are things that have been constantly been reported on,
01:22:31.040whether North Korea will actually act, whether the U.S. will defend itself, to a point where we really need to start understanding the consequences of these conversations and what this is leading into.
01:22:46.340I think, in general, people are going to take this scenario itself and start contemplating whether they need to do drills, whether they need to say, do I need to have preparedness at home?
01:22:57.500So, just remembering the, you know, I'm too, too young to remember.
01:23:02.820I wasn't alive during the Cold War era.
01:23:04.820So, you know, thinking about just whole the Y2K scenario when the housing was coming out, how people were starting to prepare.
01:23:11.420It really feels like something along those lines where people are going to be like, okay, well, we need stockpiled food.
01:23:16.660What if this is going to be a real scenario?
01:23:18.380I just can't fathom how this will play out in the long run.
01:23:27.820But this also opens like a can of worm, you know, and we, as a general population, are going to start discussing this in a more serious tone.
01:23:40.760He and his family were in Hawaii for a 40th anniversary of his parents' marriage, and the, you know, false missile alert went out.
01:23:51.340Was there a time that you saw or anyone saw or anyone in your party started to panic at all, or was everybody pretty calm?
01:24:03.000I think it was a more progressive kind of nature.
01:24:07.960I think my wife definitely had, so I would say my dad initially, he reacted by, you know, quickly taking my son and putting him in a stroller and then putting him in the bathroom because that was the one place that didn't have windows.
01:24:21.500It was furthest away from the windows.
01:24:23.620My wife slowly started gathering essentials, things that my son would need.
01:24:29.140And you could see in everyone's faces that as minutes would go by, the more anxiety would build up in terms of, you know, the reality of this warning.
01:24:43.800You know, I think a lot of us were on the brink of, you know, emotional kind of hitting that limit where we felt like we were about to cry.
01:24:52.480As soon as we found out this was a false event, we were just kind of like, wow, I can't believe this just happened.
01:25:00.440What has changed in your mind or your life or your family?
01:25:06.700Is anything, was anything clarified for you?
01:25:11.660Nothing was clarified in the sense of, you know, this was a mistake in terms of the broadcasting system.
01:25:21.620You know, things like this can happen.
01:25:25.060There's a human factor in a lot of things.
01:25:27.640I think what really kind of, you know, we're enjoying our vacation.
01:25:30.680We've moved past this in terms of being able to continue to celebrate my parents' anniversary.
01:25:35.840But what has really kind of become more of a reality is that we as, you know, U.S. citizens listening to conversations that are happening on the sideline, and we are bystanders in all of this.
01:25:52.920And I think that's really come to become a more of a seriousness where, you know, no longer can we really accept these conversations that are happening regarding, you know, who has the bigger missile or who wants to be the first to act.
01:26:11.380It's kind of more of a, we need a more peaceful society in general.
01:26:16.380People shouldn't be living their lives in fear.
01:26:18.380And I think that's what's kind of soaked in to us here as we move forward is that how do we come and reconcile and enjoy the moments we have, you know, through our lives without constantly being worried that something may happen.
01:27:42.180And it began to occur to me, though, as I was driving home, that we weren't seeing the other warning systems activate, such as the newly restarted warning sirens, and there was no broadcast interruptions on radio or TV.
01:27:54.420And very shortly after we both got home, we both began to receive the messages via email announcing that the warning was called off, which was a false alarm.
01:28:05.280And then nearly half an hour later, the cell phone message announced a false alarm as well.
01:28:09.360So we just talked to somebody who was in, I think, the Hyatt on Oahu and is away from everything.
01:28:24.000Were you going home to hunker down and you knew you could survive?
01:28:30.120Well, we've had some pretty serious lessons learned, I think, in the last few months, especially in Puerto Rico, where we've seen what happened recently and have to acknowledge that we're going to have to take care of ourselves here.
01:28:43.540And consequently, we're prepared to do so for up to 60 days, as recommended by the state of Hawaii.
01:28:49.760At any point, did you think if this is real and it is and it's from North Korea, there's really no, you know, it's kind of like the duck and cover hide under your desk?
01:29:23.580We don't have a lot of infrastructure here in place to do much more than to seek the best option possible to protect ourselves from an initial blast, the ensuing radiation.
01:29:34.640And then, of course, the loss and denial of services across the spectrum, communications, power, water, everything that we take for granted is going to go away for a while.
01:29:50.060Fortunately, we were able to execute that plan fairly easily.
01:29:54.140We're very, very relieved, obviously, that this was not only a false alarm, but that no one was hurt here in those initial few minutes of responding.
01:30:08.900It was a pretty quiet Saturday morning here in this residential town that's fairly far and away from the streets and hotels and high rises of Waikiki.
01:30:17.180I did notice the folks that were driving with a little bit more sense of urgency.
01:30:23.060But you, of course, kept to the speed limit.
01:30:50.120One of the most interesting things about the Hawaii thing from this weekend was that we've all played that game where if you had 30 minutes to live, what would you do with it?
01:30:59.080And an entire state basically had to answer that question and attempt it on the fly.
01:31:02.840And I wonder how many of them were happy with their decision.
01:31:06.900And on the other side, someone like Tom, who's actually prepared, you don't think about it the same way.
01:31:23.840It's a totally different way of thinking about it from, I think, most of the tourists that were there were just like, oh, wow, we're about to die.
01:31:28.920We should hug each other really tight.
01:31:30.980You know, I mean, I wonder how many, I wonder how many couples, you know, were like, we're going out.
01:31:38.460Oh, yeah, you got to go for it at that point.
01:31:40.140It's at least a good argument from the guy for once.
01:31:42.540It's like, look, come on, half an hour.
01:31:45.040And she says, I don't want to spend my last half an hour doing that.
01:31:51.360Let's go down to the pool and see if I can find somebody interesting.
01:31:53.100Well, if you're not prepared, this is not a commercial, but if you're not prepared, you should call my Patriot Supply and be prepared.
01:32:02.020Because it's like Stu said, when we were in New York, we talked to nuclear experts and they said, the most surprising thing is you'll survive.
01:32:10.380Most likely you'll survive a nuclear attack unless you're right at ground zero.
01:32:15.480Paying off debt can take forever and it piles up fast, but it doesn't have to be that way.
01:32:19.200If you own a home and you have some equity, refinancing to consolidate and pay off your debt could make life a lot easier.
01:32:25.180But that may not be the right decision for you.
01:32:28.020But the people at my or at American Financing can help you find the right thing.
01:32:34.080They have access to every loan in the industry and will only offer refinance options if it makes sense for your financial goals.
01:32:43.560Now, maybe it's cashing out to pay off the high interest debt.
01:32:46.740Maybe it's realizing you're still paying a few hundred dollars unnecessary PMI because you've you've reached the threshold for remover or removal.
01:32:53.720Whatever the case is, American Financing can review your current mortgage and can look for options that will lower your monthly payments and help you achieve a better financial status.
01:33:53.520But I was a little worried it would be so annoying in our current context with the name of praising itself.
01:34:00.240Well, I was really concerned, you know, there was I think I went because it was Spielberg and I thought if anybody's going to do this right at Spielberg and I thought there was actually.
01:34:12.620I mean, I'm sure nobody in Hollywood or on the left pick this up, you know, they always write it themselves.
01:34:19.760They write it and they produce it and they think about it.
01:34:23.000And yet it doesn't ever seem to connect with them.
01:34:25.320But at one point or several points, they talk about this has been going on forever.
01:34:35.700And they start to realize at the end, one of the one of the big points is the press should not be friends with politicians.
01:34:44.700You know, Jack was using them, keeping them close to bring them in on the inside so they wouldn't question these things and they wouldn't report those things.
01:34:56.400And now with the press, it's very important that they're adversarial to the administration.
01:35:00.240So that message connects, but it didn't connect when they had Barack Obama, Barack Obama and tons of media members going directly from the media into his administration and otherwise.
01:50:28.040You know, everybody else is, um, you know, you go to the store, which jacks up the price of the mattress.
01:50:34.880You go to the store and you lay down in your clothes and, you know, your shoes and you're, what, you're there for 20 minutes and you think that's a good night's sleep.
01:50:42.820Have you ever purchased a mattress and it wasn't a good night's sleep and then you just lived with it?
01:50:49.940You don't have to because they've cut out the middleman and so you don't go into a store because they know that's not a good test.
01:50:57.100So they ship it to you in this little teeny box.
01:51:52.200So we're talking about how, uh, you can't retroactively after a sexual encounter say that you didn't like it when you said you liked it in the moment or you were, it was consensual in the moment.
01:52:00.820That doesn't, it doesn't become, you can say that, but it's ridiculous though.
01:52:05.480You can, you know, you can say, oh, that was great.
