The Glenn Beck Program - 1⧸9⧸18 - What's Paining Oprah？

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.

00:00:09.500 Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck.

00:00:15.980 So it all went down four years ago, and we all remember it.

00:00:20.160 Cliven Bundy and his sons refused to pay federal grazing fees

00:00:24.140 and then stared down the government agents as they attempted to confiscate their cattle.

00:00:28.960 It kicked off an armed standoff with many people fearing outcomes like Ruby Ridge.

00:00:35.700 After the situation cooled, Cliven and his two sons and a militia member were arrested,

00:00:40.760 and in the words of Cliven Bundy, they were political prisoners ever since.

00:00:46.140 Yesterday, a federal judge threw out the government's case against the Bundys and set them all free.

00:00:52.900 The judge used the words flagrant and reckless.

00:00:57.320 Not for the Bundys.

00:01:00.140 Those were the words she used to describe the government

00:01:03.580 and the way they withheld evidence from the defense.

00:01:07.740 It turns out the information the federal agents were withholding

00:01:11.540 were information regarding records about surveillance at the Bundy Ranch,

00:01:17.260 maps about the government surveillance,

00:01:19.980 records about the presence of government snipers,

00:01:23.320 FBI logs about activities at the ranch leading up to the standoff,

00:01:27.860 a 2012 law enforcement assessment that found that the Bundys posed no threat,

00:01:34.460 and internal affairs reports about misconduct by BLM agents.

00:01:40.700 Holy cow!

00:01:43.660 Imagine if we went to war with a country and our soldiers misbehaved,

00:01:49.060 we did all kinds of research on it,

00:01:52.080 we had all kinds of facts that showed none of this was really true,

00:01:58.380 and the people that we went after,

00:02:01.520 there were reports that said they weren't really a threat to us,

00:02:06.040 and then the CIA tried to cover it all up.

00:02:09.660 Well, that's exactly what this sounds like.

00:02:15.140 Although the outcome for the Bundy family turned out happy,

00:02:18.780 the story is troubling for three different reasons.

00:02:22.180 Number one, the Bundys and everyone involved in the standoff

00:02:26.000 enabled this to escalate way out of control.

00:02:29.780 It should have never gotten as far as it did.

00:02:32.920 But number two, the government, likewise, went off the rails with this,

00:02:40.480 in the way that they behaved, is insane for America.

00:02:45.800 A massive surveillance operation, snipers, out-of-control BLM agents,

00:02:50.940 and then trying to lie to cover it all up.

00:02:55.780 And number three, this is the most important.

00:02:59.100 This story is much larger than the Bundys.

00:03:02.180 The misconduct of the federal agents,

00:03:05.960 and most of the other headlines that you're going to see about this story.

00:03:09.520 It's bigger than this.

00:03:11.280 The story really is about one thing.

00:03:14.520 The federal government has zero business managing public land, period.

00:03:21.960 Judge Navarro called the government's actions in handling the Bundy case,

00:03:26.280 quote, a reckless disregard for constitutional obligations, end quote.

00:03:31.400 Yes, somebody who's actually a judge used the word constitution in their ruling in an appropriate way.

00:03:43.320 But I contend the entire premise for the government seizing land

00:03:47.700 and then charging private citizens to work on it

00:03:51.080 is also a reckless disregard for constitutional obligations.

00:03:56.040 Here's a notice to Washington, D.C.

00:03:59.820 You have no right meddling or managing public land.

00:04:05.820 The people who live around the land are much more qualified and they care much more.

00:04:14.140 It belongs to the 2, 321 million people that live here in America.

00:04:22.220 And quite honestly, as somebody who has a piece of land that is surrounded by public land,

00:04:33.560 we don't want your help, nor do we need it.

00:04:38.340 It's Tuesday, January 9th.

00:04:48.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:04:50.980 I hope to have the Bundys on.

00:04:53.380 This is a real day of vindication for them.

00:04:58.060 And, you know, I have I had the Bundys on and I I really agreed with them.

00:05:06.940 I disagreed with the way they handled it.

00:05:10.720 If I remember correctly.

00:05:12.640 Yeah, I mean, this isn't a vindication of how they handled it.

00:05:14.920 No, it's not.

00:05:15.600 It's a vindication of their legal case.

00:05:17.500 Right.

00:05:17.720 And their arguments that they made many times that the government was overreaching.

00:05:21.800 Yes, the government was out of control.

00:05:23.240 The government is out of control.

00:05:24.380 And they were right.

00:05:25.980 And when I had them on, I just kept saying to them, but don't behave this way.

00:05:32.380 You can't put a sniper on a bridge or encourage people to do that.

00:05:38.460 Yeah.

00:05:39.220 I mean, and I think like there was a long period there where they were seen as these horrible people.

00:05:47.040 And, you know, you talk to them.

00:05:48.820 They definitely were not.

00:05:49.920 They were not horrible.

00:05:50.660 Horrible people.

00:05:52.140 And this is a big deal.

00:05:53.640 You know, these stories, it's something about our news cycle in which these stories come

00:05:58.800 and go and the conclusions are not part of the cycle.

00:06:03.520 Yeah.

00:06:03.780 You know, here's a big conclusion.

00:06:05.440 You know, a lot of people argued that the government was doing things that it should not

00:06:10.120 have been doing.

00:06:11.060 And now the courts agree.

00:06:13.520 It's a big deal.

00:06:14.740 It's a really big deal.

00:06:15.640 But it won't get the kind of coverage that the original arrest and everything else.

00:06:22.220 And just quickly on this, you know, one of the big things is that look at what they're

00:06:25.580 doing.

00:06:25.900 There are people there and the Bundys were never the ones doing this, but there are people

00:06:29.500 there supporting them that were threatening federal agents that were pointing guns at

00:06:34.260 them.

00:06:34.380 Not good.

00:06:35.040 At right now, at the same time, right now, our FCC commissioner is having to cancel public

00:06:42.120 appearances because of death threats over net neutrality.

00:06:45.060 This is happening currently.

00:06:47.340 Have you heard a word about it from the same people who were covering the Bundy situation?

00:06:52.460 This is not a, you know, this is not a, you know, situation that is getting even remotely

00:06:59.620 close to the amount of attention that the Bundy situation got at the time.

00:07:03.100 So when the government is shown to have screwed this up and acted inappropriately, there's no

00:07:09.240 real coverage of it.

00:07:10.540 And now that people on the left are threatening multiple public officials, multiple over the

00:07:18.340 administrator for the EPA has to have $2 million of personal security now because their life

00:07:25.660 is in danger because they're the administrator of the EPA.

00:07:29.940 The left loved administrators.

00:07:31.740 Oh, yeah.

00:07:32.200 They love them.

00:07:32.940 They love them.

00:07:33.780 As long as you're administrating what they want, which gets us into Google.

00:07:36.880 And we'll talk about that coming up later on in the in the program today.

00:07:42.340 We we posted at Glenn Beck dot com.

00:07:44.480 We've broken my 2018 predictions down into four different categories.

00:07:50.340 And these I do not put these into the category.

00:07:53.860 Some of them I do of like the caliphate.

00:07:57.420 This is me looking for things that I say, OK, so what's trending?

00:08:01.700 Uh, what do I think is going to happen?

00:08:05.620 Um, you know, the the the some of the predictions that I have made in the past, uh, quite honestly,

00:08:11.280 I don't, um, I didn't have to think about those.

00:08:14.700 They just they just hit me.

00:08:16.760 Um, so I just want to separate.

00:08:19.420 Um, these are Glenn predictions, if you will, that I sat down and said, OK, so what are the

00:08:24.920 trends doing?

00:08:26.580 So I I put a few predictions down and I think some of them are right, but we're asking you

00:08:31.340 to vote.

00:08:32.480 And for the next couple of days, they will be broken up in chunks today.

00:08:36.500 They're all political and you can find them at Glenn Beck dot com.

00:08:40.540 And the idea is to kind of rank them as to what is the most likely to come true.

00:08:44.960 Yeah.

00:08:45.160 And some of them are going to be hard because they're all there.

00:08:48.740 There's some of them that have several predictions in each one.

00:08:52.460 You know what I mean?

00:08:53.480 And so, you know, which one is going to come true?

00:08:56.880 Which one do you think you're not backing out of this?

00:08:59.240 Are you?

00:08:59.460 Are you not?

00:09:00.040 This is that what's happening?

00:09:00.960 No, no, no.

00:09:01.300 I've seen this already.

00:09:02.220 We're just starting and you're back of them.

00:09:04.220 And there is going to be 39 that you're going to be able to beat me with a stick on next

00:09:08.540 next year.

00:09:09.320 OK, so here's prediction.

00:09:11.020 Number one, the freedom movement will experience a bit of a renaissance, both in the U.S.

00:09:16.280 and globally.

00:09:17.160 In the U.S., this will mostly manifest at the local level and be primarily pushed by

00:09:23.020 millennial and Generation Z voters who will be completely disenchanted by the two major

00:09:28.660 political parties.

00:09:29.880 We'll see hundreds of new candidates from new political parties running in state, county

00:09:34.280 and local elections.

00:09:36.100 Both Democrat and Republican parties will be forced to contend with significant weakness

00:09:40.740 in recruiting and retaining younger voters, ultimately forcing them to change their platform

00:09:46.520 stances to accommodate millennial and post-millennial Generation Z ideas and positions.

00:09:53.200 Also, a new understanding of a kinder and more ethical capitalism will be rediscovered by

00:10:00.300 millennials over socialism in the coming years.

00:10:02.940 A new strain of, quote, non-hippie libertarianism will be formed.

00:10:10.060 We'll see the early signs of this movement in 2018.

00:10:13.140 It will be the alternative to a Bernie Sanders-style socialism.

00:10:17.940 What do you think?

00:10:20.320 I'm going to go with disagree on that one.

00:10:23.000 Yeah, that's not happening.

00:10:25.020 Really?

00:10:25.800 Yes, the American people don't care about that stuff anymore.

00:10:28.340 I honestly do think that there is...

00:10:30.380 This is driven by millennials, though.

00:10:31.860 I think they do care.

00:10:32.920 You know...

00:10:33.760 They don't care about the parties, and they don't believe in any of that.

00:10:38.140 I disagree.

00:10:39.380 They're super passionate about the parties.

00:10:41.760 If anything has been taught to us over the past couple of years, I think, is that people

00:10:47.140 really freaking care about that red versus blue battle.

00:10:50.640 It is the most important thing in politics that they care about.

00:10:55.420 It's that.

00:10:56.100 And look, that summarizes a lot of things.

00:10:58.780 A lot of things that are really material, right?

00:11:01.300 I mean, real policy differences, there's a lot of in there.

00:11:03.940 I just don't think that that's the primary concern of people who, you know, the average

00:11:08.820 person who's not listening to 15, 30 hours of talk radio every week.

00:11:12.720 The average person cares only about that red versus blue battle.

00:11:16.520 So the idea that they're going to lock into some third party or some out-of-the-system

00:11:20.500 thing, I'm going to go ahead and disagree on that.

00:11:22.680 Okay, well, I just think that millennials, generally speaking, are going to, they're so

00:11:29.260 disgusted by all of it, they don't believe either side.

00:11:33.300 They believe one side or the other more, but they don't, they're disgusted by it, and

00:11:38.260 it's going to get worse and worse and worse.

00:11:40.320 And they are going to, there's, there's just a new, I think there's a, a new attitude coming

00:11:47.600 with the leaders of millennials.

00:11:50.840 Remember, it takes 10% to really change things.

00:11:56.220 18% is the tipping point.

00:11:58.460 So it's not going to, I mean, it's, I'm not talking about 80% of millennials doing this,

00:12:02.960 right?

00:12:03.100 I'm talking about a good chunk of them.

00:12:05.440 I think four of them doing anything would be a, would be a, don't count.

00:12:09.380 It would be a bit of a renaissance.

00:12:11.060 Don't count those guys out.

00:12:12.300 I'm not, you know, counting them out, but I do think that what we're seeing now, in

00:12:16.480 my opinion, is more of a association of, yeah, you're right.

00:12:19.780 They're sick of it.

00:12:20.580 They're sick of the way things are going.

00:12:22.200 Yeah.

00:12:22.440 But what that, I, how they crystallize that in their own lives is attacking the other

00:12:27.400 side.

00:12:27.840 So they're sick of that, those people, not themselves.

00:12:30.500 So in this, both Republican and Democratic parties will be forced to contend with significant

00:12:35.060 weaknesses in recruiting and retaining younger voters.

00:12:37.480 What that includes in there is the Democrats are going to move to more socialist ideas.

00:12:45.000 They are going to, the Bernie Sanders thing, and I don't know if it'll be with Bernie Sanders,

00:12:49.280 but the Bernie Sanders thing, socialism is going to become very, very popular.

00:12:54.320 But at the same time, a new understanding of freedom, one that actually, um, one that is,

00:13:02.660 is, uh, that actually believes in diversity that actually says, yeah, I don't care if you

00:13:10.880 get married or not.

00:13:12.640 The government shouldn't be involved.

00:13:15.220 I don't care what you, if you go to church or you don't go to church, the government shouldn't

00:13:20.380 be involved.

00:13:21.120 Are you a decent person?

00:13:22.300 Are you hurting people?

00:13:23.360 Are you, are you like stealing money?

00:13:25.380 Are you trying to take people's stuff?

00:13:27.280 Are you trying to kill people?

00:13:29.500 It's going to be boiled down to a much simpler, more constitutional bill of rights kind of freedom

00:13:36.340 on the other side.

00:13:37.260 I feel like we're both looking outside and seeing really dark clouds and I'm predicting

00:13:42.600 rain and you're predicting suntan time.

00:13:45.320 You're predicting laying out by the pool and it's 40 degrees.

00:13:50.280 And for some reason you're thinking it's all going to clear and go to 80 later on in the

00:13:54.000 afternoon.

00:13:54.480 So get your bathing suits on.

00:13:55.600 I cannot believe how much we've flipped places.

00:13:57.960 You are way more optimistic on this.

00:13:59.920 I have no hope on these things anymore.

00:14:01.820 You used to be the guy saying the exact opposite to me.

00:14:04.960 Yes, that's true.

00:14:05.800 That's weird.

00:14:06.240 And I've been proven wrong, clearly.

00:14:09.540 Okay.

00:14:10.200 Next prediction.

00:14:11.440 Churches will continue to lose power and influence through 2018.

00:14:16.620 Those who preach politics over principles and power over people in their own communities

00:14:21.860 will lose more and more influence.

00:14:23.940 The more hellfire that is preached, the bigger the hit, even though in times of strife and demagoguery,

00:14:32.140 these flourish for a short time, but they will collapse traditional institutions that claim

00:14:38.900 to be infallible and that discourage thought and honest questions on their own doctrine will

00:14:45.280 be hardest hit.

00:14:46.280 At the same time, megachurches that are more show will suffer and shed sheep to flocks who

00:14:53.820 embody through quiet and humble action, a simple, happy and charitable life.

00:15:02.140 It's interesting.

00:15:04.600 I mean, because you were talking about millennials.

00:15:06.540 What is it now?

00:15:07.000 A third of millennials think the church does more damage to society than good for society.

00:15:14.640 I mean, I think you're right.

00:15:16.740 The one place you should be able to chase principle with no pragmatism at all is church.

00:15:24.120 You should never make a church-based decision when you're talking about faith-based things

00:15:29.500 that's, you know, that's related to pragmatism, right?

00:15:31.920 And what I want, I want to go into church and them to tell me the thing that seems most

00:15:35.740 obvious is the thing you shouldn't do because of this guiding principle from this book that's

00:15:41.520 really old that we've been talking about for a long time.

00:15:43.700 And I think a lot of churches have gone, and we've certainly seen it on the left and I

00:15:50.420 think increasingly on the right, that have looked at the world and have formed their

00:15:57.940 message based on the world and how it's moved rather than a, you know, a stone tablet, right?

00:16:05.660 Or a place where it lives all the time and it never changes.

00:16:08.540 But it's also, I think there's a difference now coming on, I want action.

00:16:17.920 I do not want to just go sit in a church.

00:16:21.260 I want to, I want something that changes my life.

00:16:25.680 I want something that goes out and does good.

00:16:28.700 I want to be involved in doing things and helping people and show it to me.

00:16:34.460 Don't talk to me about it.

00:16:35.900 Let's do it.

00:16:37.320 And feel it, right?

00:16:38.060 I mean, I think that's what's coming.

00:16:41.420 I think the pomp and circumstance, the traditional ways that we have connected religiously are

00:16:50.060 falling away.

00:16:51.600 And the churches that figure out that a church is just a place, it's a building, a real church,

00:17:01.480 you should be in it all the time.

00:17:03.420 And it's, it's everywhere.

00:17:05.140 It's everywhere you go.

00:17:06.840 And it's how you live your life.

00:17:08.600 I think those will prosper.

00:17:11.180 We'll see.

00:17:12.400 More in a second.

00:17:13.180 All right.

00:17:24.920 Glebbeck.com is the place to go to see all of Glenn's predictions on politics today.

00:17:28.960 You can also sign up for the email newsletter and get all of them all at once.

00:17:33.220 And vote for them.

00:17:33.980 And vote to see which one you think is going to be most likely to happen and which one you

00:17:37.580 think has no freaking chance.

00:17:38.940 You're going to have lots of opportunities on that one.

00:17:40.860 All right.

00:17:41.080 Paying off debt can take forever and it piles up fast, but it doesn't have to be that way.

00:17:45.920 If you own a home and you have some equity, refinancing to consolidate and pay off your

00:17:50.320 debt can make life a lot easier.

00:17:52.780 But is it the right choice for your situation?

00:17:54.820 A great way to tell is by making a 10-minute call to the salary-based mortgage consultants

00:18:00.020 at American Financing.

00:18:01.940 These are the guys that have access to every loan in the industry and will only offer refi

00:18:07.080 options if they really make sense for your financial goals.

00:18:12.460 So maybe it's cashing out to pay off that high interest debt, or maybe it's just realizing

00:19:43.680 Hillary Clinton and Uma are going to be charged with crimes.

00:19:47.180 Yeah, no, I was kidding.

00:19:50.080 I wrote that at the end.

00:19:51.860 I'm like, yeah, that would be fun.

00:19:53.460 But Bitcoin is more likely to be at a million dollars next Friday than that happening.

00:20:37.400 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:45.480 All right.

00:20:47.360 Today we're talking politics and what's on the horizon for 2018.

00:20:52.900 You can find them at glennbeck.com.

00:20:55.240 And you can upvote the ones that you think are most likely to happen.

00:21:01.520 Prediction number four.

00:21:03.000 The press at large will continue to discredit themselves and be discredited by the White

00:21:09.880 House.

00:21:10.960 And it will happen on both sides.

00:21:13.520 MSNBC and Breitbart and others that will play to the rabid core of the right or left

00:21:18.880 will prosper over the short term during the run up to the midterms.

00:21:23.360 It will be the same approach that will precipitate a quick downfall in the early 2020s.

00:21:29.940 Your date on Breitbart might have been a little early.

00:21:32.240 Yeah.

00:21:32.860 As that one seems to be falling apart at the president's desk right now.

00:21:38.040 Do you have any idea how Breitbart is faring?

00:21:40.660 Have you seen any Google Analytics or anything?

00:21:42.740 I have not seen that.

00:21:43.500 I mean, I know obviously there was reporting of their traffic is going down earlier.

00:21:47.580 But I think with this, I think Breitbart is in real trouble if they do not distance themselves

00:21:52.220 from Bannon.

00:21:53.240 Right.

00:21:53.500 If they fire Bannon, they can repair it.

00:21:55.440 But I mean, again, we've said this before.

00:21:58.320 There's people there that are good.

00:21:59.440 It's got obviously a considerable history in conservative circles.

00:22:05.560 I mean, you know, Breitbart was the guy who built the site.

00:22:08.720 Bannon, you know, he hijacked it.

00:22:12.360 So, I mean, you can go back, I think.

00:22:14.440 I don't think that generally speaking, the conservative audience would hold them to what Bannon has done

00:22:23.380 to that site.

00:22:24.160 I think that they would be able to recover because of the history.

00:22:27.120 I mean, you know, I think the move of getting him out of there would be really helpful.

00:22:31.680 I thought that it was going to happen because the Mercers distanced themselves from everybody

00:22:36.720 was distancing themselves.

00:22:38.540 And there was talk that the board met last Thursday.

00:22:41.400 But yeah, the fact that he's still there makes you think he's staying.

00:22:44.200 Yeah.

00:22:44.380 You know, it's going to that stuff happens usually pretty quickly.

00:22:47.240 Yeah.

00:22:47.460 And once it starts to drag on like this and he's still there, I mean, it's his arrogance

00:22:52.060 that has gotten him in trouble.

00:22:53.580 He's got a lot of, you know, he's got a lot of power over there and he's going to try to

00:22:56.440 he's obviously tried to already backstep and from the ultimate alpha male, he's tried to

00:23:01.500 backstep himself out of that Trump comment and the Don Jr. stuff.

00:23:05.240 I wonder how different it would have been if Roy Moore would have won.

00:23:10.340 Yeah, because it's interesting.

00:23:12.280 The Wolf book was over the time and a big part of the focus was on the time where he

00:23:17.140 felt triumphant over the Moore thing.

00:23:19.960 Remember, it was more he was picking Roy Moore and Trump had picked Luther Strange.

00:23:24.340 And there's a there's a whole chapter on the book about that.

00:23:27.280 And and Bannon is saying, you know, I was the only one that was standing for principles.

00:23:34.380 I was the one doing this.

00:23:36.000 And this is what this is what Trump ism is supposed to be about.

00:23:41.780 But he wouldn't do it.

00:23:43.720 Right.

00:23:43.860 And I was proved correct with Roy Moore.

00:23:45.860 I won right now.

00:23:47.220 Obviously, we know the end of that story, which is we have a Democratic senator in Alabama.

00:23:50.600 Right.

00:23:51.380 So maybe he didn't win.

00:23:52.940 And look, you know, as you know, as as the president said, once he said something about

00:23:58.740 Bannon, his tune changed pretty quick.

00:24:01.640 And now he's trying to back himself out.

00:24:04.640 He's trying to do the Homer Simpson disappear into the Bush routine, whether that's going

00:24:09.360 to work or not.

00:24:09.880 I don't know.

00:24:10.320 Maybe it will.

00:24:11.200 The Me Too movement is going to continue to grow in 2018, 19 and 2018, 19 will be the apex

00:24:19.760 of the witch hunt in 2018.

00:24:22.460 It will be used to discredit Donald Trump and then spread to the midterms.

00:24:26.980 It sadly will become a joke in the end.

00:24:30.080 It will not be effective, I don't think, against Donald Trump.

00:24:34.120 However, it will destroy what positive brand image, if any, the GOP still has with anyone

00:24:41.600 under 35.

00:24:42.880 It will also hurt the actual cries of victims.

00:24:46.160 So you think it turns into such a political?

00:24:49.080 Yeah, just a political witch hunt with the midterms coming.

00:24:52.900 It's going to be so overdone and they're going to use this on Donald Trump that it is it's

00:24:59.300 going to become it's just going to be split down the middle because it's all it's all just

00:25:05.480 about politics, period.

00:25:07.820 Yeah.

00:25:08.020 I mean, and that's that's what it seems like it's coming to now.

00:25:10.620 Did you hear the Ben Shapiro comments on this?

00:25:13.580 On Oprah's speech?

00:25:15.460 Yeah, on the whole speech thing.

00:25:16.520 Because, I mean, it's it's the the amount of denial you have to be in to act like Hollywood

00:25:24.200 is leading the charge in the Me Too movement when they're responsible for almost all of

00:25:30.120 it is just insane.

00:25:31.940 Ben Shapiro talked about that.

00:25:33.600 Listen, what the hell kind of risk was she taking?

00:25:35.860 She was standing in front of an entire town filled with sexual abusers and harassers.

00:25:40.660 She said nothing about it for 20 years.

00:25:42.380 She's being cheered by people who said nothing about it for 20 years.

00:25:44.800 And there she is pretending that she's leading the fight.

00:25:47.540 In what way has she led the fight?

00:25:48.820 I sort of missed it.

00:25:49.620 And just because she said some stuff last night, I haven't seen how things have materially

00:25:52.940 changed.

00:25:53.480 I mean, Reese Witherspoon was mentioned that she measures things before Oprah and after

00:25:56.600 Oprah.

00:25:57.180 What changed after Oprah?

00:25:58.520 Oprah said a bunch of stuff.

00:25:59.540 Well, I was under the impression that most of us agreed with that stuff when this stuff

00:26:02.860 first broke.

00:26:03.680 And she lauded the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

00:26:06.280 Where were they reporting on the sexual harassment and abuse scandal for the last 20 years?

00:26:09.420 It is literally their job to cover Hollywood.

00:26:11.080 And yet it took the New Yorker and Ronan Farrow to uncover all this stuff.

00:26:14.260 Where was the Hollywood Foreign Press Association that was receiving such plaudits at the hands

00:26:17.700 of Oprah Winfrey?

00:26:18.720 Again, a woman who is good friends with Harvey Weinstein, being cheered by Meryl Streep, a

00:26:22.720 woman who gave a standing ovation to Roman Polanski.

00:26:26.560 Yeah.

00:26:27.340 Ben Shapiro almost made my prediction list.

00:26:30.160 He almost did.

00:26:30.900 Yeah.

00:26:31.060 Yeah.

00:26:31.540 I almost put Ben Shapiro will be the leader of the new conservative thought movement.

00:26:39.020 He is.

00:26:39.420 I mean, he is.

00:26:40.520 He's fantastic.

00:26:41.800 He is absolutely fantastic.

00:26:43.240 That's great.

00:26:44.280 Let's see.

00:26:45.760 I've got some gun rights stuff.

00:26:47.740 I've only got time for maybe.

00:26:49.160 Just quickly.

00:26:49.620 Just before we move on.

00:26:51.440 Do almost predictions count?

00:26:53.740 Like you said, you thought you almost put them on the list.

00:26:56.560 Do we give you credit for that if it happens?

00:26:59.040 I'm just curious because it's one of those.

00:27:00.660 No, because I didn't think it was a, you know, I didn't think it was a real.

00:27:03.120 You'll be claiming credit, of course.

00:27:04.540 Of course I will.

00:27:05.180 Okay.

00:27:05.520 Yeah, of course I will.

00:27:06.360 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:27:07.140 So the gun rights activists and advocates will finally get their long sought concealed

00:27:13.280 carry reciprocity bill through Congress.

00:27:18.240 I believe that's going to happen this year.

00:27:20.360 That's a way.

00:27:20.780 That's a big one.

00:27:21.520 It's a huge one.

00:27:22.580 It's a huge one.

00:27:23.060 So this would mean if I get a concealed carry permit in Texas, I can go to New York or Washington

00:27:28.500 DC and carry and carry it.

00:27:30.700 They can't stop me.

00:27:31.700 Yeah, well, they can like New York City could stop you.

00:27:37.480 It's like the the rep or reciprocity.

00:27:43.600 I can't ever say that word.

00:27:45.860 It means that like, for instance, I go to some states that I have a concealed carry.

00:27:53.300 I can't carry my gun, even though they have a concealed carry permit.

00:27:57.720 I can't carry my gun because they don't accept my gun license there, but they'll accept my

00:28:03.960 driver's license.

00:28:05.500 So in states or in areas where you cannot drive, they're not going to accept your driver's

00:28:10.560 life.

00:28:10.800 I was on the road with a car officer.

00:28:12.940 Yeah, we don't drive in this state.

00:28:14.860 We don't drive here.

00:28:17.020 So if they're issuing gun license, then you have your gun license is in Texas.

00:28:23.660 It's good in Maine.

00:28:24.740 It's good in Massachusetts.

00:28:26.100 It's good in South Carolina.

00:28:27.760 It's good wherever.

00:28:29.040 Just like a driver's license.

00:28:31.140 Right.

00:28:31.760 Well, but I mean, they can't.

00:28:33.160 There's this constitutionally guaranteed right.

00:28:35.100 They can't.

00:28:36.480 Well, that is not.

00:28:37.900 I mean, right.

00:28:38.780 Right.

00:28:39.040 But right.

00:28:39.980 But the way I the way I see it, OK, it could be wrong.

00:28:44.820 The way I see it is that you're just going to be you have one gun license, just like a

00:28:50.480 driver's license.

00:28:51.960 However, when I go to Montana, the state says there's a minimum speed limit.

00:29:00.040 And I think the minimum is like 55 miles an hour.

00:29:03.120 And you can the maximum is like 120.

00:29:05.980 Well, just because I have a license in that state doesn't mean I can go, you know, 90

00:29:11.720 miles an hour in Texas.

00:29:12.980 So I still have local laws.

00:29:14.460 You have to follow the local laws.

00:29:16.220 But but it would your license is good there.

00:29:19.280 And but it would guarantee you the right to carry.

00:29:22.040 You'd obviously still have to follow.

00:29:23.840 Yeah.

00:29:24.020 Not law.

00:29:24.680 Not necessarily in California.

00:29:27.040 Really?

00:29:27.280 If California if you can't carry in California.

00:29:30.480 But you can.

00:29:31.660 I mean, you have to be able to.

00:29:33.100 I know.

00:29:33.880 We've had multiple Supreme Court decisions.

00:29:35.380 If you can't if you can't carry in New York City, then you can't carry.

00:29:41.140 You just have to because I mean, all the issue with with carrying in New York City, right,

00:29:45.180 is it's difficult to get the right to do that.

00:29:47.120 It's difficult.

00:29:48.040 It's actually not at all difficult to get the right to do it.

00:29:50.180 It's guaranteed to you.

00:29:51.040 Yes.

00:29:51.300 But it's it's difficult to get the privilege to execute that right in New York City.

00:29:56.020 But my my thought would be if you have a license, you can go to these other places and you're

00:30:02.780 are you already have the license.

00:30:04.040 The license is the thing that's hard to get in New York City.

00:30:06.280 Right.

00:30:07.000 So if you have the license coming in, wouldn't you be able to carry in that in that region?

00:30:10.760 I think you know more about this stuff.

00:30:11.920 I think I think in a perfect world.

00:30:13.780 Yes.

00:30:14.220 They're going to fight that.

00:30:15.160 Obviously, every step of the way.

00:30:16.660 That is going to be fought every step of the way.

00:30:18.540 A big enough step was it would be that I can carry in all 50 states as long as I'm abiding

00:30:27.160 by the local rules.

00:30:28.820 You know what I mean?

00:30:29.680 Yeah.

00:30:29.940 Well, that seems so.

00:30:31.340 I can't care.

00:30:32.020 I can't.

00:30:32.440 If you get onto a plane, you can't.

00:30:34.440 Well, you can't carry on the plane.

00:30:35.860 But after you unload it from the six boxes, you've had to break it up in.

00:30:41.560 You can't carry it in all states.

00:30:43.900 Well, this would be either way, a really positive thing.

00:30:46.620 And with control of all, get this done in 2018, because if you lose the House or the

00:30:50.160 Senate, you're never going to get it done.

00:30:51.920 The U.S. Supreme Court will finally strike down pro labor laws that will enable unions

00:30:56.460 to take dues from workers.

00:30:58.980 That would be huge.

00:31:00.160 Seems obvious to the Trump administration will actually finally begin construction on a true

00:31:05.400 wall between U.S. and Mexico using discretionary funds provided for border protection and law

00:31:11.900 enforcement and the new infrastructure spending by the Republican controlled Congress in

00:31:16.560 early 2018.

00:31:17.920 There will be a compromise on the dreamers as well as an agreement to renew NAFTA.

00:31:22.960 You feel comfortable with that sort of arrangement?

00:31:27.140 Hey, all the dreamers get to stay and we'll have all this DACA stuff going on.

00:31:31.260 And on the other side, you'll get some.

00:31:33.780 You're not going to get the wall as promised, but you'll get some portion of the wall.

00:31:37.340 If I believed that we had the wall, I would be willing to talk about other things.

00:31:42.680 I'm not happy about it.

00:31:43.820 I don't want to, but I'd be willing to.

00:31:46.900 And that's such a Trump's position, right?

00:31:48.460 If I have a wall.

00:31:48.900 It seems like that's Trump's position.

00:31:50.940 However, a wall means what to you?

00:31:54.480 I'm curious because we, you know...

00:31:56.880 Not what we're going to get.

00:31:58.040 Because I think what we will get is stretches of wall that basically justify the claim that

00:32:05.980 we've built a wall, right?

00:32:07.100 Here's what I want.

00:32:08.120 Rather than a wall, you know, a border to border type of situation.

00:32:11.080 I want a wall where it makes sense to have a wall.

00:32:13.280 And then I want a wall of technical or human security where it doesn't make sense to have

00:32:19.940 a wall.

00:32:20.420 Right.

00:32:20.500 Where there's maybe...

00:32:21.640 Right.

00:32:21.860 I don't want any holes in the border.

00:32:23.820 I don't want like, hey, look over here.

00:32:25.640 It's a wall.

00:32:26.280 Yeah, but look over here and there's a line of people walking into America.

00:32:31.940 I want security.

00:32:35.240 Antifa, coupled with Occupy Wall Street and others, will be funded through Soros-based

00:32:40.880 organizations to stir up an impeach Trump movement, a march and sit-ins.

00:32:47.440 It will rise and fall in importance and significance, but will impact the 2018 midterms and 2020 election.

00:32:55.100 2018, to me, seems to be the year you have to go for impeachment if you're the Democrats.

00:33:00.500 Yes.

00:33:00.820 Because once you get past 2018 and you're into 2019, the presidential campaign starts.

00:33:06.280 It's going to be...

00:33:07.380 There's...

00:33:08.200 I mean, impeaching him would do what?

00:33:09.860 Give Mike Pence a nice, you know, runway to win?

00:33:14.020 Yeah.

00:33:14.100 So, I think, like, at that point, you really can't.

00:33:16.880 You got to do it this year or you don't do it.

00:33:18.660 And the last one, I think maybe we should save...

00:33:21.580 We'll take a quick break and then maybe save because it's about Russia and what I think

00:33:26.160 is going to happen with the Russia investigation.

00:33:28.940 And there's a lot of...

00:33:30.540 There's a lot of stuff that needs to be discussed on that one.

00:33:34.700 We'll get to that coming up in a second.

00:33:36.140 And you can find them at glennbeck.com.

00:33:38.680 And don't forget to vote at glennbeck.com because you can rank them in as the order of

00:33:45.720 what you think is going to come true.

00:33:47.000 And this will give you a little bit of responsibility as well because...

00:33:51.120 I'd love to see what the audience thinks.

00:33:52.460 Yeah.

00:33:52.720 I'd love to see which ones they believe is true.

00:33:54.200 And you're not ranking them necessarily.

00:33:56.460 Vote up for everything that you think is going to come true.

00:34:00.100 And, yeah.

00:34:00.600 And the other one is vote down.

00:34:02.520 My prediction is, and I don't think this matters to you, but that Alabama will win the

00:34:06.840 next 14 national championships.

00:34:08.800 That's my prediction.

00:34:09.760 Huh.

00:34:10.260 And I'm making it today.

00:34:11.540 Okay.

00:34:12.020 I'm sure you watched the game last night.

00:34:13.520 Obviously, you didn't go to a movie on your anniversary or anything.

00:34:15.780 Not with my whole family, no.

00:34:17.840 Yeah, I saw Darkest Hour again last night.

00:34:21.740 Is there any symbolism in the fact that your wife wanted to go to the Darkest Hour on your

00:34:25.880 anniversary?

00:34:27.680 Or to be in the dark with me, but surrounded by witnesses.

00:34:31.920 Around by other people.

00:34:35.020 Separated by children.

00:34:36.000 Yeah, I mean, that's probably.

00:34:37.720 Let's not think about that.

00:34:39.140 Been telling you about Blinds.com for several reasons.

00:36:11.900 Glenn Beck Mercury.

00:36:22.400 Glenn Beck.

00:36:26.040 All right, so here's the last one.

00:36:29.520 I don't know if we're going to be able to really fully get into this, so let me read

00:36:32.360 it, and then maybe we'll spend some time on it next hour.

00:36:35.640 The Mueller-led investigation into Russia election hacking and any connection to the Trump administration

00:36:41.680 will finally be put to rest with basically zero impact on the Trump administration.

00:36:49.580 No significant charges being leveled.

00:36:53.300 No additional?

00:36:55.300 I mean, like you're not like the...

00:36:56.900 Yeah, nobody's going to go to jail for this.

00:37:00.820 Nobody will go to jail.

00:37:03.140 So the...

00:37:04.060 Okay.

00:37:05.080 Because, I mean, obviously there's been people who are already charged.

00:37:06.020 I'm out on a limb on this one.

00:37:07.360 I am so torn on this one because the reason why I say the special counsel will likely issue

00:37:14.880 a report that is strongly anti-Russia and broadly implies that there were attempts by Russia

00:37:21.040 and Russian agents to influence the election in favor of Trump.

00:37:24.260 The report will be light on evidence or specifics, and no one will pay attention.

00:37:28.900 Now, there's more to this that I have to get to because I think there is trouble on the

00:37:33.640 horizon connected to this investigation.

00:37:37.500 Glenn Beck.

00:37:38.500 But because of Russia's power.

00:37:41.020 Uh-uh.

00:37:47.460 Love.

00:37:48.660 Courage.

00:37:50.400 Truth.

00:37:52.120 Glenn Beck.

00:37:53.740 So do you remember the name James Damore?

00:37:55.780 James Damore was the senior software engineer at Google.

00:37:59.560 He was fired last August for his internal memo that was titled,

00:38:05.800 Google's Ideological Echo Chamber.

00:38:09.860 In this, he criticized the diversity policies of Google.

00:38:15.380 He said that they actually result in reverse discrimination and suppress conservative political

00:38:20.960 points of view.

00:38:21.860 The media jumped on this.

00:38:24.380 It got all kinds of attention at the time, mainly because Damore's memo was painted as,

00:38:29.820 yes, anti-diverse and sexist.

00:38:34.560 So Damore dared to point out that men and women have biological and personality differences

00:38:41.660 that might account for different professional and personal priorities.

00:38:46.060 What a Neanderthal.

00:38:47.800 Grab the club.

00:38:48.900 He said that Google's culture of bias included programs, mentoring, and classes only for people

00:38:57.280 with a certain gender or race, and that they prioritize diversity candidates.

00:39:03.060 Well, Google didn't like that much, and so they fired him.

00:39:06.440 Ridiculous overreaction by Google and really fascistic in nature.

00:39:11.640 By firing Damore, Google basically confirmed, yeah, you can't speak out if you have a different

00:39:19.280 opinion.

00:39:20.580 No one at Google, no one in the media seemed to appreciate the respectful, well-reasoned arguments

00:39:27.940 that he made in his memo.

00:39:30.480 Nobody seemed to appreciate that.

00:39:31.780 He said he was just a Neanderthal.

00:39:35.080 They only had blind rage towards his discussion of gender.

00:39:41.160 It couldn't be heard.

00:39:43.920 Well, he's now fighting back.

00:39:45.340 Yesterday, he filed a class action lawsuit against Google, and here's his claim.

00:39:50.080 You don't hear this every day.

00:39:51.740 He said, Google unfairly discriminates against white men who have perceived conservative political

00:39:58.120 views that are unpopular with its executives.

00:40:02.120 Another Google employee, David Grudman, joined Damore in the lawsuit, and they're going for

00:40:09.400 the throat.

00:40:10.820 The suit alleges that Google uses, quote, illegal hiring quotas to fill its desired percentages

00:40:17.280 of women and favored minority candidates, end quote, and that, quote, the presence of Caucasians

00:40:24.540 and males is mocked with booze during company-wide weekly meetings, end quote.

00:40:32.340 Google's unhinged response to the Damore memo is the end result of progressive extremism.

00:40:41.100 When you promote diversity as the end all, the be all of all of your virtues, and then you

00:40:50.760 fire somebody for actually being diverse, I don't know if you noticed this, but you violate

00:40:57.480 your own ultimate virtue.

00:40:59.400 It's hypocrisy.

00:41:00.780 You people should stay away from designing any kind of AI.

00:41:05.680 Now, I say this, and I can say this, because currently at my workplace, I won't get fired for

00:41:14.040 saying it.

00:41:14.600 It's Tuesday, January 9th.

00:41:25.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:29.580 You know, I don't think people understand the word diversity.

00:41:34.320 If we want to be diverse, then we have to listen to reasoned arguments that we disagree with.

00:41:46.360 We have to have people present all kinds of different options, but nobody's really interested

00:41:53.180 in that anymore.

00:41:54.180 It's one way, either left or right.

00:41:56.540 It's one way, and it cannot be anything other than that one way.

00:42:01.680 And if you don't agree with it 100%, there's something wrong with you.

00:42:05.800 You're a traitor.

00:42:06.660 You're a sellout.

00:42:07.720 Whatever it is.

00:42:10.080 How did we get here?

00:42:12.500 Yes.

00:42:13.160 Incredible anger.

00:42:14.380 If you hear that opposite opinion, I don't understand it.

00:42:18.280 I mean, it's how how do you form your opinions if you're only hearing one side of an equation

00:42:24.680 and everything else you consider indoctrination?

00:42:27.580 Yeah, it's indoctrination.

00:42:29.260 And quite honestly, how many of us have read the Michael Wolff book?

00:42:36.460 I mean, we have.

00:42:37.500 We have.

00:42:37.780 That's our job.

00:42:38.940 I don't know that I would if I didn't work here.

00:42:41.060 Right?

00:42:41.240 I mean, I don't know that I would be interested in it.

00:42:43.820 I would hope that I would.

00:42:45.580 I don't know if I'd be interested.

00:42:46.960 If I cared about politics, I would hope that I would.

00:42:50.060 It's just such a spectacle.

00:42:51.780 You know, I mean, I guess I would want to know for myself what was real and what wasn't.

00:42:55.360 We have to we learned a lot in it and it had nothing to do with Trump had nothing to do

00:43:00.960 with Trump.

00:43:02.100 We learned a lot by reading it.

00:43:05.060 And it if you're not making yourself uncomfortable.

00:43:10.080 Then you're not growing.

00:43:13.460 Right.

00:43:13.980 I mean, you know, there are times where indoctrination is important.

00:43:18.220 For example, you know, I have indoctrinated my children to be Philadelphia Eagles fans.

00:43:23.480 Right.

00:43:23.820 And when they walk through the grocery store, they see someone with a Dallas Cowboys shirt on.

00:43:29.600 They look at me and they say, ew, dad, yucky.

00:43:32.500 I have I have them to the point where they think it's a visible scar to see that stupid star on a shirt.

00:43:41.960 That's how hard I've worked at that.

00:43:43.800 That's indoctrination.

00:43:44.760 That's not good for every thing.

00:43:47.360 You don't want to do that when it comes to politics.

00:43:49.360 You don't want to do that.

00:43:49.900 Now, what the Eagles, obviously, you do want to do it, but in other parts of your life, that's not a that's not a good approach.

00:43:55.300 You know, one of the reasons why I think we lose our children in in faith is we don't allow them to discover it themselves.

00:44:04.820 We just tell them this is the way it is.

00:44:07.540 And we're going to church and you're going to you're going to do this.

00:44:11.280 And this is what we believe.

00:44:12.880 We need to foster questions.

00:44:16.700 We need to.

00:44:18.120 I want my children.

00:44:19.300 I had a really hard time getting my children into a school, into a Christian school because we're Mormons and God forbid you have a Mormon.

00:44:28.940 And I even went to the leadership of these schools that were turning us down.

00:44:33.440 I said, I don't I don't want you to teach my doctrine.

00:44:36.180 They get my doctrine at home.

00:44:37.820 They get my doctrine at church.

00:44:39.660 I want you to teach what you teach because it will form questions in their minds.

00:44:45.760 And I want them to have questions.

00:44:48.480 And the questions come anyway, like they're individual.

00:44:52.240 Here's what happens.

00:44:53.200 You're not prepared when you go out.

00:44:55.900 For instance, I did my daughters a grave disservice.

00:44:59.420 And I learned this from Hannah by by just focusing on all of the good things of America, because when she got out and she heard about all the bad things, she no longer trusted me.

00:45:13.180 She was like, well, dad, you don't know the bad things.

00:45:16.820 And she was kind of right.

00:45:18.400 I didn't.

00:45:20.180 Now I can tell my daughters and my children the worst that we have done.

00:45:25.880 And I focus on that.

00:45:28.200 Here's the bad things that this country has done.

00:45:31.460 Learn these things now.

00:45:34.260 Learn the times that we have been tremendous and try to find those places elsewhere.

00:45:40.560 You don't.

00:45:41.820 You don't find those those moments.

00:45:46.240 Elsewhere.

00:45:47.920 Why?

00:45:49.100 Because there's something special and it's always a balance.

00:45:51.920 It's always trying to make sure that your ego, your humility is in check, that you're doing it for the right reason.

00:45:59.360 Your kids are not going to be prepared to go out into the world if you haven't already challenged them every step of the way.

00:46:07.120 Why is this true?

00:46:08.520 Why do you believe that?

00:46:10.420 If you haven't played devil's advocate with your kid and really push them up against the wall and said, hmm, well, what about this?

00:46:19.100 How would you how would you argue about this?

00:46:21.280 People think, well, they're going to get that outside.

00:46:23.720 They need that in here.

00:46:25.340 They need it in a safe zone with you.

00:46:28.900 Otherwise, they're going to get lost.

00:46:30.740 And, you know, I started this with how did we get here?

00:46:38.460 Stupidity.

00:46:40.280 Self-imposed ignorance.

00:46:44.260 It's a lack of a desire to even think for yourself.

00:46:50.820 The lack of teaching critical thinking.

00:46:54.500 Listen to this.

00:46:55.040 This is these are the Antifa protesters.

00:46:57.920 OK, Antifa, anti fascist.

00:47:02.320 How do you define fascism?

00:47:06.260 This is really not a hard question, especially if you've taken the time to get in your car or gone in the subway or the bus to go to some place.

00:47:15.440 And you're standing there as somebody who is anti fascist.

00:47:19.760 How do you define fascism?

00:47:22.100 Listen.

00:47:22.920 How would you define what fascism is?

00:47:25.960 I don't know.

00:47:30.460 How would you define fascism?

00:47:31.580 It's not an easy thing to define.

00:47:35.860 How would you define fascism?

00:47:38.220 I don't really want to get into all of that history.

00:47:40.960 Does that mean you can't define it, though?

00:47:42.300 I don't want to talk about it right now.

00:47:44.120 Fascist ideas.

00:47:45.520 And how would you define fascism?

00:47:48.840 People that are here to celebrate fascism and white supremacy.

00:47:52.060 And how would you define fascism?

00:47:53.200 Fascism is an increasingly upward hierarchical model that puts white people and European European people at the top.

00:48:10.160 No, that's not fascism.

00:48:12.240 That's one kind of fascism.

00:48:14.460 That's not one.

00:48:15.040 That's not fascism.

00:48:15.860 Fascism is silencing all those that have a differing opinion of those who are in the group.

00:48:26.880 However big the group is.

00:48:28.900 Remember, the Nazis didn't start out at the majority.

00:48:32.060 The Nazis didn't end up being in the majority.

00:48:36.380 The Nazis, the real Nazis, were only about 30% of Germany.

00:48:42.780 So it doesn't have to be majority.

00:48:44.640 It just has to be a big enough block to be a bully to say, my way or the highway.

00:48:52.100 You will all conform to whatever it is I think.

00:48:57.580 Now, that can be done religiously.

00:49:00.820 That can be done with atheists.

00:49:02.640 That can be done with people who say, I want to burn all the fossils.

00:49:06.600 I want to dig up and bring back to life dinosaurs and then shove them into a combustion engine just because I know they'll hurt the earth.

00:49:16.440 They can be fascists as well as the hug a tree person.

00:49:22.020 It's my way or the highway and I am going to gather up enough strength, either through a fear of the mob or the mob becoming the power structure.

00:49:34.900 I'm going to enforce my way on everyone.

00:49:40.220 And if they don't comply, I destroy them.

00:49:43.440 That is fascism.

00:49:52.100 Kind of sounds, in some ways, like working at Google.

00:49:57.300 It's a right-wing movement, though, as we've all learned from our history books.

00:50:04.740 Fascism, big right-wing movement.

00:50:06.300 No.

00:50:06.820 The left.

00:50:07.920 Just checking your math there.

00:50:09.880 A definition of fascism, Merriam-Webster Dictionary.

00:50:12.420 A political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual.

00:50:18.380 And stands for centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

00:50:28.840 How on earth is that translated as a right-wing movement?

00:50:32.920 An autocratic government that's centralized.

00:50:36.320 It can be if you're talking about Steve Bannon.

00:50:39.240 I don't think it can be.

00:50:40.700 He wants centralized, nationalistic.

00:50:43.700 Right, but that's not, that is not a conservative philosophy.

00:50:47.320 Oh, no, no, no, I know that.

00:50:48.600 But if you define conservative as Steve Bannon, which most people on the left do.

00:50:54.480 And most people, you know, in America do at this point.

00:50:57.020 I think we've just lost those definitions.

00:50:58.560 You tried, I mean, you, over the years, did how many chalkboards where we showed the difference between the European model of left and right and the American model of left and right?

00:51:08.360 It's not the same.

00:51:09.160 Right now, I think even in America, we adopt that left-wing model.

00:51:12.980 Yes, we do.

00:51:13.740 There's no option, really, for smaller government in many ways.

00:51:18.620 For real freedom.

00:51:19.520 I think that's going to change.

00:51:21.460 That was one of your predictions, by the way.

00:51:22.840 It is.

00:51:22.920 Glennbeck.com, you can check them all today.

00:51:24.720 The political predictions are up.

00:51:26.180 You can vote on which one you think is going to come true.

00:51:28.020 One of them was based on the freedom movement.

00:51:29.600 It's actually, I think, in first place right now.

00:51:31.400 People think that there's going to be a renaissance of that freedom movement here and abroad.

00:51:35.020 I hope that's true.

00:53:20.660 Mercury.

00:53:33.020 Glenn Beck.

00:53:33.580 So do you remember the name Amy Fabrini?

00:53:40.660 They're from Redmond, Oregon.

00:53:43.180 Amy was the young girl who, if you listened to the interview with her, she sounded perfectly fine, perfectly normal.

00:53:54.000 Well, she was deemed by the state to have too low of an IQ to be able to keep her children.

00:54:03.860 Well, they took her son from her after birth at the hospital.

00:54:10.840 And 10 months now have gone by.

00:54:14.220 Some good news happened over the holiday.

00:54:18.920 The blaze ran the story.

00:54:21.440 Quote, essentially, the state doesn't have to prove anything definite to take away the child.

00:54:26.800 The argument is that they are going by the expert's recommendation for what's best in this case,

00:54:32.780 because something just could happen.

00:54:35.380 However, however, the judge ruled differently.

00:54:41.300 And the judge said, no, I don't think so.

00:54:46.900 They both have high school diplomas.

00:54:49.580 And it doesn't matter what the state says.

00:54:53.360 They cannot seize their children.

00:54:56.080 They cannot take your children away.

00:54:58.280 If you're in the child protection business, then everything looks like a danger.

00:55:03.060 You always think the worst could could happen.

00:55:06.260 And they've returned the 10 month old now to Amy and is back home.

00:55:13.100 Still, they have what?

00:55:14.040 Three year old that is out.

00:55:16.680 And now it's I don't know what they're going to do with that.

00:55:19.740 You can't be expected to get all your kids back.

00:55:21.760 I mean, that's good.

00:55:22.420 You're going to get you get one.

00:55:23.920 You got to be happy with that.

00:55:25.000 I mean, obviously, they're thrilled with the opportunity to have their own child back.

00:55:30.000 But still, it's got to be still quite a struggle to not have both.

00:55:35.200 Just so glad that we found out about this story and that it has a happy ending.

00:55:43.440 And it and it just came over the holiday.

00:55:46.580 Now, there's another one that we can make into a happy ending.

00:55:50.220 Um, this one happened in Michigan over the weekend.

00:55:55.520 There is, um, on one of our sister stations, uh, there was a, um, an intern.

00:56:02.880 Her name is, uh, Amity Dewey.

00:56:06.980 Uh, I got a note said, Glenn, just please put her on your prayer list and, uh, found out some more information.

00:56:12.920 She's in critical condition at the hospital in Grand Rapids.

00:56:16.760 She's an 18 year old girl.

00:56:18.340 She was an intern at one of our stations and, um, uh, just a girl who has so much potential.

00:56:25.880 She was, uh, you know, when she was in high school, she was making, you know, constitution videos, you know, for the school and, and everything else.

00:56:34.920 And she decided she wanted to go and intern in radio.

00:56:38.440 She has been dealt a hard hand.

00:56:41.160 Um, her father, uh, you know, not necessarily a good guy and kind of, you know, left her, abandoned her.

00:56:48.400 So she grew up with her mom.

00:56:50.000 Her mom started dating this guy who was not necessarily a good guy.

00:56:54.820 Um, and they got married three years ago.

00:56:57.320 Amity went on a, um, on a, uh, vacation during the holidays.

00:57:04.260 So mom and dad were supposed to go, her stepdad and mom were supposed to go pick her up at the, uh, airport.

00:57:10.880 They did.

00:57:11.900 They put the luggage in the back halfway home.

00:57:16.000 The stepdad stops the car, gets out, takes a gun and shoots mom and the 18 year old girl.

00:57:24.960 And then himself.

00:57:26.020 Mom is dead.

00:57:28.740 Stepdad is dead.

00:57:30.380 And, uh, she's in critical condition.

00:57:34.220 She sure could, um, use your help.

00:57:37.100 She is all alone.

00:57:38.620 Now you can go to, um, uh, go fund me, uh, look for help.

00:57:44.180 Amity M a M E D Y Amity Dewey and family help Amity Dewey and family go fund me, help her out.

00:57:53.920 She is alone in the world now and a good, good kid.

00:58:04.080 Glenn Beck.

00:58:06.080 Mercury.

00:58:06.680 Mercury.

00:58:18.800 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:58:21.140 Um, I posted something, um, last week on Twitter, uh, and I normally don't talk about this, uh, stuff, but, uh, I think this is kind of important.

00:58:39.580 The leader of my church, uh, died, uh, last week and he was truly a remarkable man.

00:58:47.720 Um, and the reason why I want to bring this up is because the New York times ran an obituary that is just, is, is so offensive.

00:59:01.420 What, what, what is an obituary?

00:59:06.380 What really, what is it?

00:59:08.240 It's, it's, it's to, to explain somebody's life.

00:59:12.380 The obituary is to say, this is who this person was.

00:59:15.780 The New York times ran an obituary that said, uh, Thomas Monson, the president of the Mormon church who rebuffed demands to ordain women as priests and refuse to alter church opposition to same sex marriage died Tuesday at 90.

00:59:37.420 Is, is, is that who he was?

00:59:46.120 Is that who he was?

00:59:49.760 And, and, and why did he deny those things?

00:59:59.800 Beckett Adams did a really good, uh, article on how the New York times writes their obituary.

01:00:07.420 Obituaries and he used the obituary of Thomas Monson last week and compared it to the New York times obituary of Fidel Castro.

01:00:22.280 Hugh Hefner.

01:00:25.600 Hugh Hefner, um, really didn't, really didn't talk about, you know, what Hugh Hefner did and, and the rapes and the horrible things.

01:00:37.420 That happened at the, uh, the, uh, the playboy mansion and mentioned any of that.

01:00:44.200 Hefner created playboy magazine and spun it into a media and entertainment industry giant.

01:00:52.840 Doesn't seem like there's any controversy, um, there.

01:00:56.380 How about Fidel Castro, Fidel Castro, Cuban revolutionary who defied U S dies at 90.

01:01:05.640 Okay.

01:01:06.540 Headline.

01:01:07.680 Here's the obituary.

01:01:09.640 Fidel Castro, Fidel Castro, the fiery apostle of revolution.

01:01:14.360 Fidel Castro, who brought the cold war to the Western hemisphere in 1959 and then defied the United States for nearly half a century as Cuba's maximum leader, bedeviling 11 American presidents and briefly pushing the world to the brink of nuclear war died on Friday.

01:01:33.360 The, the, the, it continued claiming the Castro era was one of, uh, one of medical advances.

01:01:42.920 Excuse me.

01:01:44.640 He improved education and healthcare for many Cubans.

01:01:49.420 Admirers from around the world, including some Americans were impressed with the way that healthcare and literacy in Cuba had improved.

01:01:57.520 Oh, okay, okay, okay.

01:02:01.120 Uh, how about the 78,000 people that died trying to flee him?

01:02:05.740 How about that one?

01:02:06.820 How about the 5,300 known to have lost their lives fighting against communism?

01:02:12.380 How about, how about that one?

01:02:18.840 Thomas S.

01:02:19.620 Monson, who is the president of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day sense since 2008, enlarged the ranks of female missionaries, but rebuffed demand.

01:02:27.520 To ordain women as priests and refused to alter alter church opposition to same-sex marriage died on Tuesday at his home in Salt Lake City.

01:02:37.480 He was 90.

01:02:46.080 I'm tired of the bigotry on all people of faith, no matter what faith it is.

01:02:52.580 I'm tired of it.

01:02:53.580 Let me tell you who Thomas Monson was.

01:03:01.080 Thomas Monson was a man that served people over himself and really over institutions.

01:03:11.580 There are many stories of him going to some important thing where he's going to be, you know, you know, the main guy that everybody wants to see.

01:03:23.660 I mean, he doesn't show up because halfway there, he found out that there was a woman whose husband had died, was at the hospital and alone.

01:03:41.200 Somebody who was dying themselves that didn't have anybody to hold their hand through the process.

01:03:50.480 He put nothing in front of people, nothing.

01:03:55.260 I met him once.

01:04:01.060 He was not impressed.

01:04:02.580 I was at a, I was at a, I was at a room, um, it was for a funeral.

01:04:11.360 And my friend's daughter had died.

01:04:19.980 And Thomas Monson walked in and this was a important funeral.

01:04:26.040 Anybody who was, anybody was there.

01:04:27.860 It was a room full of senators and, and, uh, congressmen.

01:04:32.220 And I think the governor was there is everybody was there.

01:04:37.260 And before the funeral, we all met in this room with the casket and it was open.

01:04:46.960 And everybody knew Thomas Monson in this group, except me.

01:04:50.740 And so everybody was like, Oh, have you, have you met the president of the church?

01:04:53.980 I said, no.

01:04:55.080 Oh, you've got to meet him.

01:04:56.180 Such a great guy, blah, blah, blah.

01:04:57.380 So everybody kind of was like, you know, besides the funeral, you know,

01:05:02.020 that it was a, it was a big moment for us to meet him.

01:05:05.260 And I stood there with my wife and he came in and he just said, hi quickly to everybody.

01:05:10.820 It was no, no glad handling at all of anybody.

01:05:16.420 And then he came up to me and he looked me in the eye and he said, nice to meet you.

01:05:22.220 But it was so brief because standing next to my wife were these children.

01:05:29.000 And they were probably seven, six, seven, eight years old.

01:05:34.320 Here's this 87 year old man.

01:05:37.600 He just looks at me and gives me a quick handshake.

01:05:40.480 Nice to meet you.

01:05:41.580 And he's not even finished with nice to meet you or me saying nice to meet you.

01:05:45.960 And he's looking at these children and he gets down on one knee.

01:05:50.140 And he begins to talk to these children.

01:05:54.460 His whole countenance changed.

01:05:58.200 And he got down on his knees.

01:06:00.100 So he was eye level with them.

01:06:02.340 And he said, how are you doing?

01:06:05.880 What's happening?

01:06:07.740 So what do you want to do when you grow up?

01:06:10.600 What's going to happen here?

01:06:11.940 And he talked to children in a way that I had never heard before.

01:06:21.100 And I thought to myself, he is childlike.

01:06:25.540 He can work in this world.

01:06:29.460 But he has not lost that.

01:06:33.480 He was more interested in the children than he was of anybody important.

01:06:39.440 Then he stood up and he took my friend by the hand.

01:06:46.780 And he stood in front of the coffin.

01:06:49.680 And I listened to him.

01:07:00.000 And he comforted my friend.

01:07:03.820 In a way I have never heard before.

01:07:09.440 He talked about her beauty and her soul.

01:07:16.040 And how her pain was over.

01:07:21.400 And he spoke with such assurity.

01:07:25.780 That I knew he knew where she was.

01:07:30.040 Shame on the New York Times.

01:07:49.220 An obituary is to tell us.

01:07:52.100 Who that person was.

01:07:53.920 You focused on the political.

01:08:08.440 Shame on you.

01:08:15.260 And to those who loved Thomas Monson as I did.

01:08:21.600 Happy day.

01:08:25.740 He is finally reunited with his wife.

01:08:29.680 And there was a celebration.

01:08:32.240 As there will be hopefully when all of us return.

01:08:36.780 There was a celebration.

01:08:39.240 He is home.

01:08:40.520 And I know it.

01:08:42.360 Because I know he returned to his father in heaven.

01:08:46.700 Like a child.

01:08:47.660 I want to talk to you about Liberty Safe.

01:11:33.200 Yes.

01:11:36.720 Yes.

01:11:37.320 Yes.

01:11:37.940 And a movie theater.

01:11:39.020 Yes.

01:11:39.740 With the whole family.

01:11:41.000 And apparently of some people who listened to the program because they walked in.

01:11:46.300 And they were like.

01:11:46.760 Hey Glenn.

01:11:47.500 You're really here on your anniversary.

01:12:01.720 So well done.

01:12:03.260 And here's a really conservative guy.

01:12:06.920 And the truth is being told about history.

01:12:09.600 And the truth is being told about the West.

01:12:11.860 And what we did.

01:12:13.240 And it's fantastic.

01:12:15.720 On those rare occasions where that happens.

01:12:17.420 We should support those movies.

01:12:18.440 We should.

01:12:19.500 Yeah.

01:12:19.780 And not to go to support it.

01:12:21.220 Because we should support this movie.

01:12:22.760 Right.

01:12:22.880 Because they tried.

01:12:23.520 No.

01:12:23.720 This is a great movie.

01:12:25.980 And he won the Golden Globe right?

01:12:27.740 Yes.

01:12:28.000 For Gary Oldman.

01:12:28.360 Best actor.

01:12:29.020 Yeah.

01:12:29.380 He nails Churchill.

01:12:31.040 I couldn't.

01:12:31.520 Really good.

01:12:32.100 I had seen the previews for it.

01:12:33.880 And I saw the name Gary Oldman.

01:12:35.100 But that's one of those names that like I know.

01:12:36.740 But I don't necessarily associate with a face.

01:12:38.500 Yeah.

01:12:38.660 And then I saw him accepting the award.

01:12:40.600 And then you can kind of see his face in there.

01:12:42.780 It does.

01:12:43.340 You can't even tell it's the same person.

01:12:44.780 No.

01:12:44.820 It's amazing.

01:12:45.880 He nails it.

01:12:47.140 Oh man.

01:12:47.860 He nails it.

01:12:48.500 There's times.

01:12:49.640 Especially the second time I watched it.

01:12:51.880 Because I was really kind of watching it more technically the second time.

01:12:55.240 And there are times that I was like that's him.

01:12:58.560 That is Churchill.

01:13:00.080 It's amazing.

01:13:01.740 He nailed.

01:13:02.320 He just nailed it.

01:13:03.220 And it's so good.

01:13:04.380 Funny.

01:13:05.980 Uplifting.

01:13:06.980 My kids loved it.

01:13:08.840 I mean my kids don't go to movies like that.

01:13:10.500 Love it.

01:13:11.320 They loved it.

01:13:12.500 Loved it.

01:13:13.520 So anyway.

01:13:14.720 And then you know we went home.

01:13:16.060 And I got Tanya.

01:13:20.100 I got.

01:13:20.680 You don't have to.

01:13:21.200 You could stop the details of your anniversary now.

01:13:23.360 You don't need to continue from here on.

01:13:25.020 I think this is.

01:13:25.740 I think this just says a lot about us.

01:13:27.260 I got her a pie.

01:13:32.480 Yeah.

01:13:33.120 Coconut cream pie.

01:13:34.120 As a present?

01:13:34.700 Yeah.

01:13:35.000 And she just laughed.

01:13:37.280 I'm like what?

01:13:37.800 And she said.

01:13:39.140 Oh open your present.

01:13:41.040 Open it up.

01:13:41.700 And it was.

01:13:42.300 It was a loaf of bread.

01:13:44.400 So.

01:13:44.700 You got a pie and a loaf of bread.

01:13:46.240 Yes.

01:13:46.440 In exchange for your anniversary?

01:13:47.540 I don't know if 18 is pie and bread.

01:13:50.280 But that was for us.

01:13:51.240 No.

01:13:51.660 It's definitely not.

01:13:52.120 Yeah.

01:13:52.520 We were like.

01:13:54.280 We're sick.

01:13:55.320 Because next week we're going to go very strict on our eating.

01:13:58.860 The whole family is going.

01:14:00.660 We're just very strict.

01:14:03.680 And so I think we both had the same thing in mind of enjoy it.

01:14:08.260 Yeah.

01:14:08.580 Indulge now.

01:14:09.160 Indulge right now.

01:14:10.280 Before the darkest hour comes next week.

01:14:12.120 Yes.

01:14:12.400 Okay.

01:14:12.840 Yes.

01:14:13.360 Did you take her to Jumanji?

01:14:15.640 Jumanji by any chance?

01:14:17.000 Was that part of it?

01:14:17.700 That was at Christmas.

01:14:18.820 And we should talk about Jumanji.

01:14:20.220 Because I went not happy.

01:14:23.220 I wasn't happy about it.

01:14:24.340 To go see Jumanji.

01:14:25.600 Yeah.

01:14:25.820 Because I wasn't a real big fan of.

01:14:27.480 I mean.

01:14:27.700 And Robin Williams was hysterical.

01:14:30.000 And so I wasn't real.

01:14:31.540 You know.

01:14:32.180 I wasn't a fan of the first Jumanji.

01:14:34.260 I don't think most people were.

01:14:35.520 Yeah.

01:14:36.080 And the second one.

01:14:37.320 I'm like.

01:14:37.800 It's got the rock in it.

01:14:39.100 And there's nothing against the rock.

01:14:40.480 He makes good movies.

01:14:41.600 I like the rock.

01:14:42.280 I like him.

01:14:43.340 But he's not like.

01:14:44.660 I'm not going.

01:14:45.360 Oh my gosh.

01:14:46.060 The rock is in it.

01:14:46.840 I've got to see that.

01:14:47.960 Right.

01:14:48.160 Yeah.

01:14:48.240 You know what I mean?

01:14:48.600 I can see that.

01:14:49.040 Sure.

01:14:49.340 And so it was.

01:14:50.920 You know.

01:14:52.980 Jumanji.

01:14:54.720 We loved it.

01:14:56.920 More.

01:14:57.820 More laughs per minute.

01:15:00.420 Than any movie I've seen in a long.

01:15:03.640 Long time.

01:15:04.420 I've heard good reviews of that somehow.

01:15:06.300 That's bizarre.

01:15:07.260 You have to see it.

01:15:08.600 It's more.

01:15:09.620 More laughs per minute.

01:15:11.220 Than any movie you've seen in years.

01:15:14.000 Jumanji.

01:15:14.940 Hmm.

01:15:16.760 Glenn.

01:15:17.600 Back.

01:15:18.700 Mercury.

01:15:27.880 Love.

01:15:29.040 Courage.

01:15:30.800 Truth.

01:15:32.460 Glenn.

01:15:33.540 Back.

01:15:34.080 Oh my gosh.

01:15:34.860 Did you see Oprah's speech?

01:15:36.600 Oh my gosh.

01:15:37.260 I'm still a tingle.

01:15:38.500 I was.

01:15:39.820 Oh my gosh.

01:15:40.500 I hope she runs.

01:15:42.300 That's all you're hearing in the media now.

01:15:44.240 Oh my gosh.

01:15:45.380 Did you see her speech?

01:15:46.460 It was so powerful.

01:15:48.800 So powerful.

01:15:49.840 Yes.

01:15:50.040 She made movies with Harvey Feinstein.

01:15:52.300 And she kind of was his wingman at parties and stuff.

01:15:56.620 But she means it now.

01:15:59.500 Uh huh.

01:15:59.920 Some people called her speech on sexual assault victims empowering.

01:16:08.180 One did not.

01:16:09.860 British actress Caden Noble.

01:16:11.800 She said it was hypocritical.

01:16:14.120 She claims that Harvey Weinstein used his relationship with Oprah to seduce young actresses like her.

01:16:21.840 She said, or yeah, the actress said Weinstein would cavort around parties with Oprah by his side, duping young women into thinking that he was charming and a safe person to be around.

01:16:35.180 He used Oprah to make him look like a good guy.

01:16:39.540 Now to Oprah's defense here, she may have been unaware that she was being used as a wingman for Weinstein's sordid intentions.

01:16:47.660 But I don't know.

01:16:49.120 That kind of seems impossible to me.

01:16:50.560 I mean, if I knew I don't run around in those circles.

01:16:54.340 If I knew the rumors, if I knew everything that they said about him, it wasn't like he's had a couple of things.

01:17:02.580 It was everybody.

01:17:04.160 It was everybody.

01:17:06.320 Oprah has been friends with Weinstein for decades.

01:17:09.960 She just co-produced the butler with him a couple of years ago.

01:17:13.320 She couldn't even bring herself to blame him personally at the Golden Globes.

01:17:18.560 She said, if we make this just about Harvey, well, then we've lost this watershed moment.

01:17:25.420 How can Oprah, who is a multiple rape survivor herself, how is she not utterly disgusted by Harvey Weinstein?

01:17:34.380 How did she stand by him for so long?

01:17:40.340 Because he's her friend.

01:17:43.300 Just like Bill Clinton is Oprah's friend.

01:17:46.740 During the Golden Globes, Juanita Broderick tweeted, hey, Oprah, you didn't mention my story about Bill Clinton, you know, raping me.

01:17:59.180 And you've had Bill on your show over and over and over again.

01:18:04.600 So how can somebody so passionately call for sexual abuse victims to have a voice, silence them with her own actions and relationships?

01:18:16.960 If Oprah decides to run in the future, it's like Ricky used to say to Lucy, you're going to have a lot of splaining to do.

01:18:26.140 There's an old proverb that says, if you want to know a man, look at his friends.

01:18:34.380 If you want to know Oprah, look at some of her friends.

01:18:39.160 You know, we forget that Oprah was a member of Jeremiah Wright's church.

01:18:58.220 I mean, she is out there.

01:19:00.960 And once, you know, she had a big fall once people started to figure out who she was, once she wasn't packaged.

01:19:09.860 Personally, I think that if it was a race between Donald Trump and Oprah Winfrey, you could just hold the election today.

01:19:15.940 Just hold it because there's no I mean, what are you what are you going to do?

01:19:19.100 We need to hear a debate between these two?

01:19:21.920 No, nobody's going to change them.

01:19:23.940 If you're for Oprah Winfrey and against Donald Trump, nothing's going to change your mind.

01:19:27.980 And if you're for Donald Trump and against Oprah Winfrey, nothing's going to change your mind.

01:19:32.040 Nothing.

01:19:32.820 So why?

01:19:33.520 Let's just save all the time.

01:19:34.760 Just, hey, these two are going to be on the ballot.

01:19:37.240 November, decide.

01:19:38.900 And then just leave it at that.

01:19:40.640 I'm perfectly fine.

01:19:41.720 Save a lot of time, a lot of donations, a lot of annoying commercials.

01:19:44.800 Yeah, it really would.

01:19:45.820 Let's do something constructive with our time, you know, instead of taking these two celebrities and watch which one can put on a better show.

01:19:54.780 We have previews, kind of like what I think you would expect of what the commercials would be like.

01:19:59.280 So like this, I guess, would be Oprah's first commercial from Donald Trump in 1999.

01:20:06.700 Here's what Donald said about Oprah.

01:20:09.200 You have a vice presidential candidate in mind?

01:20:12.080 Well, I really haven't gotten quite there yet.

01:20:14.880 It's just Oprah.

01:20:16.480 I love Oprah.

01:20:17.160 Oprah would always be my first choice.

01:20:19.420 Oprah.

01:20:19.700 Oprah.

01:20:20.160 You're a competitor, right?

01:20:21.460 No, Oprah's a competitor.

01:20:22.640 You know what?

01:20:23.100 I'll tell you, she's really a great woman.

01:20:24.520 She is a terrific woman.

01:20:25.840 She's somebody that's very special.

01:20:27.700 I have not even thought about it.

01:20:30.020 I guess we'll see.

01:20:31.140 We'll see.

01:20:31.680 Maybe that's part of the whole process.

01:20:33.620 Would she be someone, I mean, kidding aside, that you might think about it?

01:20:36.420 If she'd do it, she'd be fantastic.

01:20:38.360 She's popular.

01:20:39.300 She's brilliant.

01:20:40.460 She's a wonderful woman.

01:20:42.000 I mean, if she'd ever do it, I don't know that she'd ever do it.

01:20:45.040 You'd ask her.

01:20:45.680 She'd be sort of like me.

01:20:46.700 I mean, I have a lot of things going.

01:20:47.800 She's got a lot of things going.

01:20:48.840 What a ticket.

01:20:49.840 That would be a pretty good ticket.

01:20:51.000 But she's a very exceptional woman.

01:20:52.880 I mean, none of this obviously makes any difference.

01:20:58.260 I mean, it was a long time ago.

01:20:59.720 Yeah, this is the way he does to everybody.

01:21:01.780 Yeah, everybody he likes, he kind of compliments the same way.

01:21:04.240 Yeah, and then when Oprah said one thing bad about him, he would be, she's a failure.

01:21:09.540 She's on a, you know, I mean, that's normal.

01:21:12.740 And then on the other side, I guess maybe Donald could play the clips of Oprah wishing white people would be dead.

01:21:20.240 I mean, maybe that would be a, oh boy, I haven't heard this.

01:21:23.520 It's a while ago, listen.

01:21:24.800 As long as people can be judged by the color of their skin, the problem's not solved.

01:21:28.840 There are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die.

01:21:39.100 Actually, I think she's right in the way she means it.

01:21:46.960 Yeah, the way she means it, I think, is that.

01:21:48.540 Yeah, and she didn't say white people.

01:21:50.260 She said people who were born, as long as we judge people by the color of their skin.

01:21:55.520 I'm sorry.

01:21:56.380 Now, Oprah may not believe this, but racism is a human problem, not a white problem.

01:22:02.760 How dare you?

01:22:03.520 Yeah, I know.

01:22:04.000 How dare you?

01:22:05.400 Only white people are capable of it.

01:22:07.100 There is something to be said with, you know, sometimes generations just have to pass before real change can, because they're just hanging on, and they just won't let go.

01:22:15.520 Yeah.

01:22:15.840 They just won't let go.

01:22:17.080 I guess you could come up with the same justification for this clip from Oprah.

01:22:21.860 It's kind of short, but here it is.

01:22:23.880 My vajayjay is painin'.

01:22:25.920 Now, I don't know if that's exactly, she would lead a commercial with, talk about-

01:22:30.920 My vajayjay is painin'.

01:22:32.960 Is painin'.

01:22:33.920 And I believe that means there's a-

01:22:36.240 I don't.

01:22:37.400 My vajayjay is painin'.

01:22:39.520 See, it hurts, I think, is what painin' means.

01:22:42.700 And the vajayjay, I'm not exactly sure what-

01:22:45.180 Can we change the subject?

01:22:46.840 Is that medical terminology, or-

01:22:49.880 My vajayjay is painin'.

01:22:52.060 Okay, now we go.

01:22:52.680 You know what would make that better?

01:23:01.740 Anything else?

01:23:02.220 Anything else?

01:23:02.520 Have you seen that on the new Samsung TV?

01:23:03.960 Have you heard about the new Samsung TV?

01:23:05.460 I don't think that would make it better at all, but go ahead.

01:23:08.240 Oh, you don't think so?

01:23:09.160 Saying, hear Oprah talking about her vajayjay?

01:23:11.280 My vajayjay is painin'.

01:23:13.240 Okay, all right, all right, maybe not.

01:23:16.760 Samsung has introduced their new TV.

01:23:20.960 It is a micro LED.

01:23:24.260 They say it is the screen of the future.

01:23:26.720 Um, uh, it's called, uh, it's called The Wall.

01:23:34.260 The Wall.

01:23:35.120 The Wall.

01:23:35.740 So they are building The Wall.

01:23:36.860 We finally know.

01:23:37.340 We finally-

01:23:38.240 That's happening.

01:23:38.780 And I hope Mexico pays for it, because I want one.

01:23:41.960 It's 146 inches wide.

01:23:47.960 Wow, from corner to corner.

01:23:49.600 It's a hundred and, yeah, it's a hundred and forty-six inch TV.

01:23:54.340 That's nice.

01:23:55.260 That it is.

01:23:56.240 That's nice.

01:23:57.020 That's a movie theater in your house.

01:23:58.620 Because that's not a projection screen, either.

01:24:00.220 That's an actual LED TV.

01:24:01.020 No, that's an actual, and they say that it is, uh, micrometer scale LEDs, which are smaller

01:24:06.820 than current LEDs, uh, and serve as their own source of light.

01:24:11.660 Uh, that means for the average human being that, uh, the TV doesn't need a backlight.

01:24:17.680 Uh, the TV is modular, which means anyone buying The Wall can customize it any way you want.

01:24:23.060 The screen can adapt to serve several different purposes, such as creating a wall-sized display for multiple spaces.

01:24:30.580 Uh, so I don't know if this is like a Lego TV.

01:24:33.260 I'm not, I'm not sure what that is.

01:24:34.700 $299, is that my, I'm just going to throw that guess out there.

01:24:38.280 It says, modular means you could customize this to be larger or smaller than 146 inches.

01:24:44.600 What?

01:24:45.200 For Samsung's purposes, the version being released this year is the 146-inch variety.

01:24:51.540 The Wall has no price yet or a release date, but this is going to, this is, this is the,

01:25:00.060 the writer, this is going to cost a ton of cash.

01:25:04.580 Samsung says between the size, the pedigree, uh, of the company and the new technology it's

01:25:10.340 using, the Wall will cost a lot of money.

01:25:13.500 Wait, Samsung is saying it's a lot of money.

01:25:18.560 Wow.

01:25:19.200 When the people trying to sell it are telling you it's going to cost a lot.

01:25:22.220 Then the comment is, think tens of thousands of dollars.

01:25:26.400 Oh, crap.

01:25:28.100 They have not given an official, uh, price yet.

01:25:32.440 And the press event for The Wall is scheduled for March.

01:25:35.760 I want one.

01:25:37.600 Oh, my gosh.

01:25:38.920 You know, but the problem is it'll be like this year, it'll be $50,000.

01:25:44.720 And in two years, you'll be pushing your cart down Costco and it'll be like on sale for

01:25:50.040 199.

01:25:51.600 What?

01:25:52.080 How, how, how big is 147?

01:26:05.840 Oh, is that like the chalkboard?

01:26:07.120 How, half that chalkboard?

01:26:09.120 Well, it's corner to corner.

01:26:10.600 They do diagonal across how they measure screens.

01:26:12.960 Uh, you know, 10 feet is 120.

01:26:15.080 So, I mean, that's a big boy.

01:26:17.380 Gosh.

01:26:17.940 Projection screens, though, can be, I mean, that's even bigger for a projection screen.

01:26:22.620 But I mean, like if you, you know, like some of the newer, bigger houses have like theater

01:26:27.000 rooms in them.

01:26:27.580 Yeah.

01:26:27.640 And a projection screen could be big.

01:26:29.420 But have you seen projection screens?

01:26:31.660 Totally.

01:26:32.280 It's totally different.

01:26:33.680 Yeah.

01:26:33.980 Totally.

01:26:34.260 Totally different.

01:26:34.900 Yeah.

01:26:35.580 I mean, that's a, that's an amazing.

01:26:37.820 Now, I will say Samsung should know if they want to get publicity for this.

01:26:40.820 It's obviously like something like a television show where we could put it on the wall.

01:26:45.240 Here, we have walls in the studio.

01:26:46.920 We could show people every day.

01:26:48.320 Or a radio show that the host has one in their house.

01:26:53.700 Multiple people on the show have them in their homes.

01:26:56.460 I think just one would be fine.

01:26:57.940 Thank you for that.

01:26:58.740 I appreciate that.

01:26:59.580 You can have one, too.

01:27:00.320 You can come over and see it if you want.

01:27:02.740 Holy cow.

01:27:04.300 All right.

01:27:04.700 Let me talk to you about Goldline.

01:27:06.160 Goldline has been purchased by a very large company.

01:27:10.580 In fact, I think they are like the largest wholesaler of precious metals.

01:27:15.400 I don't know, in the world or the country or I don't know what it is.

01:27:18.640 It's huge.

01:27:20.580 And they, what they did is they came in and they did a giant blowout sale.

01:27:25.880 And it was so popular that they are going to continue with the special pricing in a new year kickoff sale.

01:27:32.480 So, Goldline, the new ownership, is going to take care of you in price.

01:27:40.220 The people that have been there forever are going to take care of you like they always have.

01:27:46.040 They're going to take care of you with customer service.

01:27:49.000 And they're just really good guys.

01:27:51.460 Now they have discounted prices on their most popular products.

01:27:54.600 They're also offering starter kits where you can buy one gold legal tender bar that's a card with 60 or 60 silver rounds at their employee cost.

01:28:05.580 That's not been done before.

01:28:07.820 The reason why they can do this is now because they have this company behind them.

01:28:12.640 They're buying so much that they're getting the best prices available, which means you're going to get the best prices.

01:28:20.900 Call now, learn more about Goldline, and they'll send you a free half-ounce silver just for listening.

01:28:28.200 Free half-ounce of silver just for calling them up right now.

01:28:32.240 Call Goldline, 866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-465-3546.

01:28:39.520 Get a half-ounce of silver.

01:28:40.940 They'll send it to you just for calling them right now.

01:28:43.680 Make sure you read their important risk information.

01:28:45.440 Find out if buying gold or silver is right for you.

01:28:47.220 But if it is the people, the only people that I would trust, Goldline, 1-866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-GOLDLINE or GOLDLINE.COM.

01:28:56.780 Glenn Beck, Mercury.

01:29:09.600 Glenn Beck.

01:29:10.780 But my vajayjay is paining.

01:29:12.820 I mean, if you want to have a good, solid Oprah 2020 slogan, I think it definitely is.

01:29:19.480 But my vajayjay is paining.

01:29:21.720 Oprah 2020.

01:29:23.680 I mean, she wins with that argument, I think.

01:29:27.120 None of that stuff makes any difference, though.

01:29:29.540 I mean, it doesn't matter anymore.

01:29:31.320 I mean, the stuff that Al Franken said in his career.

01:29:33.900 Trump obviously said a lot in his career.

01:29:35.840 None of that stuff makes a difference.

01:29:37.100 None of it.

01:29:37.420 Well, try this up for size.

01:29:41.780 Another girl, Bailey Gibson.

01:29:44.000 She's 23.

01:29:44.960 She is auctioning her virginity off.

01:29:49.580 She's a good girl, she says.

01:29:52.840 Oh, that's nice.

01:29:53.500 Yeah.

01:29:54.080 She's a good girl gone bad.

01:29:56.800 And she's selling her virginity after giving up on marriage following a rough breakup.

01:30:02.980 So, she grew up in California.

01:30:07.080 Christian foster parents, they must be so happy.

01:30:11.280 She said she was very sheltered from the outside world, but something snapped when her ex-boyfriend cheated on her.

01:30:17.700 I learned that love can be very deceiving when I discovered that he slept with his ex on Valentine's Day.

01:30:23.500 However, being naive and 19-year-old that I was, I thought that if I stayed with him and we enrolled in couples therapy, we could make our relationship right again.

01:30:32.220 At that point, I had virtually nobody, and my ex-boyfriend brought me companionship.

01:30:38.020 So, I stayed foolishly, only to be heartbroken after one of the couples in our therapy sessions said that he had already met and slept with someone else on their first date.

01:30:50.820 So, she did what every girl would do.

01:30:54.020 She ran to the Bunny Ranch.

01:30:55.960 Oh, good.

01:30:56.820 Yeah.

01:30:57.120 Good establishment.

01:30:57.860 Carson City.

01:30:58.500 And she said she sold her virginity.

01:31:05.460 She's going to earn 50% of the winning bid.

01:31:08.600 You know, the Bunny Ranch gets the other.

01:31:11.060 50% is a hell of a charge on this one.

01:31:14.400 And they're giving her the room?

01:31:16.740 I mean, I.

01:31:17.580 Well, they're selling it.

01:31:18.400 Seems like you should shop that one around to other establishments trying to get maybe a 10% commission.

01:31:22.940 Yeah.

01:31:23.160 Maybe they get, I mean, 50% for selling your virginity.

01:31:26.820 Society perceives me as a deviant, she said, and I'm okay with that.

01:31:30.060 At the end of the day, it's my body.

01:31:31.700 I have the right to do with it what I want.

01:31:33.740 And going through the Bunny Ranch allows me to legally have sex for money.

01:31:38.080 Does this make me a prostitute?

01:31:40.780 Nah, I don't think so.

01:31:42.540 No, it's actually, by definition, does actually make you a prostitute.

01:31:46.500 If it says, if I take a picture once, does that make me a photographer?

01:31:52.520 That's an awesome argument.

01:31:54.200 You could justify anything with that.

01:31:56.060 That's fantastic.

01:31:56.600 I've only done it once.

01:31:57.860 I've only killed one person.

01:32:00.320 Does that make me a murderer?

01:32:02.680 Yes!

01:32:03.560 It does!

01:32:05.360 When the definition is taking money for sex, yes.

01:32:09.960 Yeah, it kind of.

01:32:10.700 It does.

01:32:10.940 There's certain activities.

01:32:12.840 When you do them once, it kind of defines you.

01:32:15.180 Yeah, no, I mean, it's a sad state of affairs.

01:32:18.340 And isn't this playing on the feelings of a young girl in distress?

01:32:27.140 Oh, of course.

01:32:27.500 I mean, she had saved her virginity.

01:32:29.000 She was going in a completely different direction.

01:32:33.640 She gets scorned by a man who cheats on her twice.

01:32:37.980 And so then she's like, I'm going to sell my virginity.

01:32:42.220 Hello?

01:32:43.460 Where's Oprah?

01:32:45.180 Well, she's saying something like this.

01:32:46.780 But my vajayjay is painting.

01:32:48.920 Yeah.

01:32:49.200 She might, that might in this particular case be a good thing to say that.

01:32:53.720 Mm-hmm.

01:32:54.760 I mean, I guess what would you expect from a society that is planning to run someone who

01:32:59.600 is quoted as saying, okay.

01:33:01.080 But my vajayjay is painting.

01:33:03.120 You don't need to.

01:33:04.640 I think that's probably, it's really, it's quite sad.

01:33:09.560 Quite sad.

01:33:10.360 I think this is really, I think this is a really sad story.

01:33:13.740 This is like the third one in like four months.

01:33:16.140 And what was the, the last one, wasn't it a lot of money?

01:33:18.660 I mean.

01:33:19.000 Oh, it was like $3 million?

01:33:21.100 Because I remember we did a story on, I think it was a Netflix documentary, Hot Girls Wanted.

01:33:29.880 Do you remember this?

01:33:30.980 Yeah.

01:33:31.280 You saw it.

01:33:32.160 I saw it.

01:33:32.400 I should watch it.

01:33:33.140 I just, I never got around.

01:33:34.340 Yeah.

01:33:34.480 I don't know.

01:33:34.860 I don't know.

01:33:35.120 But it was, it was about basically like these ads that pop up in, you know, online and publications.

01:33:40.940 Hot Girls Wanted.

01:33:41.760 Come here, do some modeling.

01:33:42.820 And of course they get, they show up and what is it?

01:33:45.320 It's porn.

01:33:46.040 Right.

01:33:46.800 And they, they followed a couple of the girls who went on these trips between like 18 and

01:33:53.040 22 years old.

01:33:54.140 And they go and they would respond to these ads and they would get talked into doing porn.

01:33:58.240 And then all of a sudden they're, I guess I'm in the porn world now.

01:34:00.960 Uh, and they stay in the porn world and they go through it and, and they showed like the

01:34:06.560 amounts of money.

01:34:08.120 They went through the finances of their situations.

01:34:10.120 It was not $3 million.

01:34:11.720 These girls were walking out with.

01:34:12.820 I want to say the, the main girl they, they focused on went there for six months and did,

01:34:17.900 you know, a dozen or more porn movies and then came back with, I think $1,500 in her pocket.

01:34:24.300 Oh my gosh.

01:34:24.900 And it's like, you know, you know, as bad as it is.

01:34:29.180 Your first porn film, the gift that just keeps on giving.

01:34:32.960 That one keeps on giving monthly for quite a long time.

01:34:35.580 Long time.

01:34:35.920 Uh, every time you open up that pill box and it keeps giving.

01:34:38.620 Um, but it's an interesting part of like thinking of it's, you know, when you have someone who's

01:34:45.000 auctioning off their virginity at 18 years old and they're getting $3 million, there's

01:34:49.340 a sad amount of people who sign up for that deal.

01:34:52.240 Right?

01:34:52.600 Like there's a lot of people who are like, you know what?

01:34:54.560 I mean, I don't think this is a good idea, but for $3 million, a lot of people are going to do that.

01:34:58.300 I think there's a ton.

01:34:58.840 Now remember, $3 million though, that wasn't going to the bunny ranch.

01:35:03.100 That was $3 million.

01:35:04.560 You had to go to Bahrain for that one.

01:35:06.680 Yeah.

01:35:06.840 That one was a, this one you think, especially with the bunny ranch getting 50%, um, she may be,

01:35:13.480 she may be having sex for the first time.

01:35:15.300 She needs to go to negotiating school next time she does this.

01:35:17.680 Cause that is the, she can't do it the next time.

01:35:20.860 That's a good point.

01:35:21.740 That would be very difficult to accomplish.

01:35:23.220 Well, no, it wouldn't be difficult, but selling her virginity, that's kind of a one-time deal.

01:35:28.000 Yeah.

01:35:28.440 Yeah.

01:35:28.940 That's kind of a, but again, smarter, bad on negotiating, smarter than the woman who sold

01:35:35.520 it to the oligarch in Russia or the guy in Bahrain.

01:35:39.600 Mercury.

01:35:47.680 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:35:50.580 Okay.

01:35:52.360 I saw, you know, I was putting show prep together last night and I saw, you know, all the stories

01:35:57.340 and there's a lot of important stories, but, uh, there is no more important story than Samsung

01:36:03.020 and their new 147 inch TV.

01:36:05.460 I think of the common era, you know, or as we used to call it AD.

01:36:09.860 Yeah.

01:36:10.120 It's the biggest story that's ever happened.

01:36:11.820 Really?

01:36:12.260 Biggest story since Jesus.

01:36:13.540 Since Jesus?

01:36:15.120 Jesus was born, not Jesus died.

01:36:17.100 No, Jesus was born and died.

01:36:18.980 And died.

01:36:19.260 And then since then.

01:36:20.040 Okay.

01:36:20.120 All right.

01:36:20.820 Biggest story we've had.

01:36:21.960 All right.

01:36:22.380 Okay.

01:36:22.880 All right.

01:36:23.520 It's a hundred.

01:36:24.300 Grab this, grab this tape measure.

01:36:25.960 It's 147.

01:36:28.260 146 inches.

01:36:29.280 Yeah.

01:36:29.760 146.

01:36:30.660 Oh my gosh.

01:36:31.380 Does this even go up to that?

01:36:32.800 Yeah, it does.

01:36:33.620 Okay.

01:36:33.760 How big is that do you think?

01:36:35.460 Uh, 900 inches.

01:36:39.420 That's 97.

01:36:41.640 Okay.

01:36:42.280 So they're all the way across.

01:36:43.340 97.

01:36:44.080 Wow.

01:36:44.720 All the way across the table at this point.

01:36:46.360 This is.

01:36:47.200 Oh my gosh.

01:36:48.120 How much?

01:36:48.780 146?

01:36:49.760 146.

01:36:50.740 To there?

01:36:51.620 This is a 146 inch television.

01:36:55.580 Wow.

01:36:55.940 That's unreal.

01:36:56.460 Now put your side down on the table.

01:36:59.380 It's going to be diagonal.

01:37:00.560 It's diagonal.

01:37:01.100 Yeah.

01:37:01.300 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:37:02.520 So like that.

01:37:03.280 That's still huge.

01:37:04.340 That's incredible.

01:37:05.300 I had the perfect vantage point here to see that, and that would be a nice TV to watch.

01:37:08.580 Wouldn't it?

01:37:09.020 Yeah.

01:37:09.280 That would be nice.

01:37:09.920 I got to confirm that.

01:37:10.600 That's bigger than a theater screen.

01:37:11.520 You know, the home theater screens, which are about 10 feet.

01:37:14.100 That is bigger than most conference room tables.

01:37:19.200 Oh, yeah.

01:37:19.720 I think so.

01:37:20.840 I think so.

01:37:22.020 I, you know, I thought the 75 inch screen that Jackie bought me for Christmas a couple

01:37:27.000 years ago was huge.

01:37:28.500 This is more than double that size or about double that size.

01:37:33.060 It's almost double that size.

01:37:34.120 They're saying that it's coming out in March.

01:37:35.440 They haven't announced the price, but they said it's going to be expensive.

01:37:37.500 It's going to be 50,000 at least, right?

01:37:39.740 It's got to be.

01:37:40.840 I mean, 50,000 and then we'll get into Kmart in two years.

01:37:44.680 When we went to Fox, when I was on that first set, there was a TV screen in the wall and

01:37:52.680 it was 107 inches and I was told, don't touch the wall.

01:38:00.380 That's what they actually said.

01:38:01.640 Don't touch it.

01:38:02.680 Don't touch it.

01:38:04.260 Oh, okay.

01:38:05.120 Because it could break or?

01:38:06.320 No, because it cost 110 or $120,000 at the time.

01:38:11.000 Wow.

01:38:12.060 It was 107.

01:38:12.820 Did it do special things or it was just a monitor?

01:38:14.960 Nope.

01:38:15.100 It was just a monitor, but it was so rare and just, I mean, it was at Fox.

01:38:18.900 So that would have been 2009.

01:38:20.220 Yeah.

01:38:20.540 Look how far we've come.

01:38:21.560 Yeah.

01:38:21.700 So fast.

01:38:22.980 Yeah.

01:38:23.040 They say this is not read the, do you have the story?

01:38:25.940 I think I threw one away.

01:38:26.900 Yeah.

01:38:27.000 You want to.

01:38:27.460 Yeah.

01:38:27.580 The new, the new technology that it has.

01:38:29.680 It's not even it's.

01:38:33.120 It's a self-emitting TV with micrometer scale LEDs.

01:38:38.960 I don't know what that means, but it sounds really good.

01:38:40.900 Sounds great.

01:38:41.780 It sounds like it's going to be a good picture.

01:38:43.640 They say the TV is modular, which means anyone buying the wall can customize it.

01:38:49.580 What way?

01:38:50.240 The screen can adapt to serve different purposes, such as creating a wall size display for multiple

01:38:56.620 spaces.

01:38:57.440 Oh man.

01:38:58.220 It's modular, which means you can customize this screen to be even larger than 146 inches

01:39:05.320 or smaller.

01:39:06.360 However, the only version that is being released this year is the 146 inch variety.

01:39:13.280 Yes, please.

01:39:17.740 Yes.

01:39:18.680 Yes.

01:39:19.000 Yes.

01:39:19.560 I mean, there's a way.

01:39:20.480 At what point do you not ran for it?

01:39:22.340 At what point do you not leave your house?

01:39:25.480 Well, I would have thought it would have been before now because we've got everything we

01:39:28.940 need at home.

01:39:30.480 I'm not sure.

01:39:31.280 And oftentimes, rather than go to a movie some weekend, we just decide, let's just stay

01:39:36.080 here and watch something because you can watch almost everything.

01:39:39.340 It's been out for three months.

01:39:41.340 Not even three months.

01:39:42.120 Yeah.

01:39:42.580 And you can have access to it in five seconds.

01:39:45.780 And we've got these incredible screens.

01:39:47.220 You're comfortable.

01:39:47.900 You can eat whatever you want to.

01:39:49.040 You don't have to pay extra for it.

01:39:50.280 You can have somebody else go pick up the food from any restaurant.

01:39:57.580 Yep.

01:39:58.140 Deliver it right to your door.

01:39:59.580 Yeah.

01:39:59.720 You can get a giant screen to watch Oprah say, my vajayjay is painting.

01:40:04.660 There's a lot of options.

01:40:05.960 I don't.

01:40:07.700 We're going to have a battle of the great quotes in 2020, aren't we?

01:40:10.880 It's going to be solid.

01:40:12.140 I can even grab their vajayjay's.

01:40:14.780 My vajayjay is painting.

01:40:16.080 That's actually a conversation.

01:40:17.600 Yeah, it is.

01:40:18.080 I'm going to grab their, and then she responds, my vajayjay is painting.

01:40:22.820 That could be the first seat of the debate.

01:40:24.800 Can we see if we can get that quote and put those two together?

01:40:29.640 I'd like to see it as a conversation.

01:40:32.140 It is a conversation.

01:40:33.640 As a celebrity, they'll let you do anything.

01:40:35.940 I can grab them by the, my vajayjay is painting.

01:40:39.580 And then it'll be followed up with her.

01:40:41.080 It's a logical response to the first part of the conversation.

01:40:43.520 It is.

01:40:44.100 And it would have been an effective response at the debate.

01:40:48.100 Hillary should have said it.

01:40:49.260 Yeah.

01:40:49.620 If Hillary came out and just blurted out at the debate.

01:40:52.540 My vajayjay is painting.

01:40:54.440 She wins that election by 12.

01:40:55.920 She would have.

01:40:56.700 Yeah.

01:40:56.940 Well, she wouldn't have, because it would have been so creepy for her to say it.

01:41:02.340 It's uncomfortable to hear it from Oprah, but it would have been downright creepy to

01:41:07.160 hear it from Hillary.

01:41:07.880 Can you imagine Hillary trying to do that with that sort of understanding slang way that

01:41:13.740 she does?

01:41:14.860 She kind of like, oh my God.

01:41:17.400 It's like your grandmother saying that.

01:41:20.440 My vajayjay is painting.

01:41:22.940 When she was campaigning in the South during the, I think it was the 2008 campaign.

01:41:26.740 And she did that phony, stupid, really bad accent.

01:41:29.720 Accent.

01:41:30.140 A poem.

01:41:30.720 It does not work with her.

01:41:31.800 Yeah.

01:41:32.220 It doesn't work with her.

01:41:33.040 Nothing works with her.

01:41:34.120 No.

01:41:34.640 Nothing works with her.

01:41:36.420 Did you, speaking of the presidential race, the president was at the national championship

01:41:40.400 game.

01:41:40.760 I'm sure you didn't see this Glenn, but did you notice that they had one camera on Donald

01:41:45.400 Trump the whole time because he was there, walked out on the field.

01:41:47.680 It was, it was kind of cool.

01:41:48.860 Now they said there were boos.

01:41:50.180 I didn't hear any.

01:41:51.120 I didn't hear any.

01:41:51.820 I heard a pretty good response to him.

01:41:53.640 May I, may I just point this out?

01:41:56.260 Do you guys remember standing in the crowd at the Tonight Show?

01:42:03.260 Yes.

01:42:04.160 Okay.

01:42:04.520 You want to explain what happened?

01:42:05.700 I was, yeah.

01:42:06.460 When you came out, there was wild applause.

01:42:09.220 And a standing ovation.

01:42:10.340 And a standing ovation.

01:42:12.100 Despite that, Jay Leno said, well, yeah, okay.

01:42:17.040 Now you don't boo.

01:42:18.060 Stop, stop booing.

01:42:19.200 Yeah.

01:42:19.460 Something to that effect.

01:42:20.320 He mentioned the boos.

01:42:21.000 It's a little split here.

01:42:22.560 There's some boos were here.

01:42:23.660 A little split, some booing, and there were no boos.

01:42:24.920 I didn't hear a single one.

01:42:26.900 It was a standing ovation.

01:42:29.020 It was silly.

01:42:29.880 And it was written.

01:42:30.560 I was standing backstage, and I was watching the prompter.

01:42:34.360 It was written into the prompter.

01:42:36.740 So they obviously were expecting or just going to say it.

01:42:39.200 Yeah.

01:42:39.220 Or just regardless.

01:42:40.560 Whatever.

01:42:41.120 And of all people in Hollywood, I mean, Jay Leno is not exactly the worst guy to conservatives.

01:42:47.100 I mean, he was always good to you.

01:42:49.500 And he was good to me.

01:42:50.640 Yeah.

01:42:50.840 And he was kind.

01:42:52.840 But that's just the way they write those shows.

01:42:54.480 They just assume everyone's going to hate the conservative that comes on.

01:42:57.140 So, I mean, so when they say they were boos last night with Donald Trump.

01:43:00.960 They just make that stuff up.

01:43:02.320 Yeah.

01:43:03.420 It's mattering or not.

01:43:04.620 I didn't hear a single one at all.

01:43:07.220 But they focused on him the entire national anthem.

01:43:09.820 And he would sing a line and then stop for a while.

01:43:12.480 And then he'd sing a line and then stop for a while.

01:43:15.920 So everybody's speculating now that he doesn't know the words to the national anthem.

01:43:18.460 He does.

01:43:19.100 He just can't pay attention that long.

01:43:22.160 That's probably it.

01:43:23.540 It is.

01:43:24.400 That's probably it.

01:43:24.880 He's like, you know, oh, say, can't wait a minute.

01:43:29.260 What was I doing last night?

01:43:31.300 I got to remember to call her back.

01:43:34.740 And the rock is ready.

01:43:38.020 Soup.

01:43:38.700 I love soup.

01:43:42.480 That makes more sense.

01:43:43.320 That's exactly what happened.

01:43:45.980 Thanks, Pat.

01:43:49.120 By the way, Walmart.com right now.

01:43:51.660 A Philips 55-inch Class 4K Smart LED TV.

01:43:56.880 $398.

01:43:58.200 $300.

01:44:00.720 How big is it?

01:44:02.100 55 inches.

01:44:04.120 I mean, that's a solid TV.

01:44:06.840 $398.

01:44:07.360 Do you remember on my 40th birthday?

01:44:10.860 Is it my 40th birthday?

01:44:12.780 Had to be.

01:44:13.940 My 40th birthday, my wife got me a brand new.

01:44:19.020 It was the first flat screen monitor.

01:44:21.340 Oh, I remember that.

01:44:22.280 Remember?

01:44:22.740 Oh, that was a big deal.

01:44:23.720 It was a big deal.

01:44:24.760 It was a Sony Trinitron first flat panel.

01:44:29.860 Okay?

01:44:30.080 Not high def, nothing.

01:44:32.320 Just hang it on the wall.

01:44:33.840 First one made.

01:44:34.620 $10,000.

01:44:39.140 And then within, what, a year?

01:44:41.500 Two years.

01:44:42.440 Yeah.

01:44:42.780 It was a thousand.

01:44:45.000 Yep.

01:44:46.340 Now 50.

01:44:47.000 And it wasn't even 55 inches.

01:44:48.760 No.

01:44:48.940 It was probably 40?

01:44:50.320 Maybe.

01:44:51.040 I mean, it wasn't a big TV.

01:44:52.280 No.

01:44:52.840 And as you point out, not HD.

01:44:54.520 No, nothing.

01:44:55.420 Nothing.

01:44:55.900 I mean, it's a dinosaur now.

01:44:57.460 We still have it.

01:44:58.200 It's a dinosaur.

01:44:59.300 Oh, yeah.

01:44:59.760 Oh, wow.

01:45:00.300 Yeah.

01:45:00.840 Yeah.

01:45:01.060 I mean, it's amazing.

01:45:02.180 Every time you go to like Walmart or Target, you walk around the electronics section and

01:45:05.520 those TVs, I just want to buy them and leave them around the house.

01:45:09.780 I swear to you.

01:45:10.720 It seems like they've just mispriced them.

01:45:12.440 They're so cheap.

01:45:13.600 I swear to you.

01:45:14.200 I was in a Walmart a couple of weeks ago and because I always hang out of there, you

01:45:19.340 know, when she's going to get whatever she's going to get.

01:45:22.480 I'm hanging out with the electronics.

01:45:24.680 I swear to you, I was walking up to a thing and I thought it was a picture, a photo on

01:45:31.300 this gigantic screen.

01:45:33.080 I didn't think it was on.

01:45:34.060 I thought it had a photo on it because it looked so perfect.

01:45:39.240 And I walk up and I'm like, no, it's just a still on this screen.

01:45:44.640 That's the...

01:45:45.460 Like the 4K situation.

01:45:47.220 Yeah, it was 4K ultra or whatever.

01:45:49.960 It was like, oh my gosh.

01:45:51.920 It's amazing.

01:45:52.420 A lot of people like Walmart gets criticism because it's like, look, it's just, you know,

01:45:56.520 they all look the same and you go in there, everything's bright white and it's all these

01:46:00.100 goods and it's all consumerism.

01:46:02.080 I walk in there and I think to myself, this is a miracle.

01:46:05.840 At Walmart?

01:46:06.580 Yeah.

01:46:06.880 Oh yeah.

01:46:07.300 It is a miracle that this stuff is all here at these prices, that they come from all around

01:46:12.880 the world.

01:46:13.600 Hundreds of people with their hands on different pieces of the technology, of the electronics,

01:46:18.840 of the shipping, of the manufacturing.

01:46:20.600 And it's all come to this one place in the middle of like Alabama somehow.

01:46:25.100 And it is a miracle.

01:46:28.260 The stuff that you can afford at these places, it's never before.

01:46:32.460 Every year it gets better.

01:46:33.940 Every year it gets better.

01:46:35.080 It's so funny.

01:46:35.540 We get so focused on how crappy so many things have become in the world.

01:46:39.720 And it's all true.

01:46:41.060 There's a lot of bad things that are going on.

01:46:42.820 But we lose sight of how much this stuff is improved.

01:46:44.940 Technology is not one of them.

01:46:45.580 Technology is a big part of it.

01:46:47.760 But even take out the technology.

01:46:49.900 You go aisle to aisle with so many foods, so many varieties, so many things.

01:46:55.120 I can't remember the number.

01:46:57.640 But when I was growing up, there were like, I don't even know, 4,000 different items in

01:47:03.900 the average store.

01:47:05.680 Now, a bad grocery store has like 12,000 items.

01:47:12.040 And the average has 40,000 items.

01:47:14.360 And you go to a really, really good one where they've got like 1,400 different kinds of ketchup.

01:47:20.640 And you're like, I just want ketchup.

01:47:22.520 I mean, it's crazy.

01:47:24.780 And where this comes in on technology is, you know, that Amazon, you drive by, if you see

01:47:31.400 any of their, you know, regional centers, they're gigantic.

01:47:37.160 Yeah.

01:47:37.480 I mean, this is like 14 football fields of storage.

01:47:41.780 Those things are so well done now.

01:47:44.220 They can, the algorithms are so close that they order everything for the week.

01:47:51.320 And they have it so close that they're only off between 3% and 5% of any week.

01:47:58.520 So they, they'll sell through 97% of what they have.

01:48:03.220 And the algorithm knows in this region, they're going to need this.

01:48:07.480 In this region, they're going to need this.

01:48:09.320 And the algorithms are getting so tight when they're starting to, when, when, uh, what is

01:48:16.540 it, Alexa, when Alexa is really in our home, you're not going to have to ask.

01:48:21.160 You won't ask.

01:48:22.240 It will just come.

01:48:23.480 It will know.

01:48:24.720 And it will just come to your house.

01:48:26.900 And then you cross the line, a little bit of creepiness, but still, you know what?

01:48:31.640 It'll be so great.

01:48:32.540 No, because I will be sitting there at the 147 and going, uh, man, I wish I had a box

01:48:37.200 of donuts.

01:48:38.300 Oh, here it is.

01:48:40.060 Thanks, Alexa.

01:48:41.720 Totally.

01:48:42.460 I, like, it's like the, uh, iPhone 10.

01:48:44.740 I got the, uh, the iPhone 10 when it came out.

01:48:46.440 It was time for me to, my phone was dying.

01:48:48.240 So I got the 10.

01:48:49.020 I'm like, I'm not going to go with, let's go for it.

01:48:50.860 Let's see what it's like.

01:48:51.440 And the thing they keep advertising on, on the iPhone commercials is the face ID, which

01:48:57.040 recognizes your face.

01:48:57.960 That's your password.

01:48:58.660 Your face is your password.

01:48:59.820 I thought to myself, that's a dumb thing to advertise.

01:49:02.280 So what?

01:49:03.260 Like my old phone, I put my finger on it and it scanned my fingerprint and I got in, which

01:49:07.760 I was an amazing achievement at the time.

01:49:09.500 But again, like, what, it's going to save me a quarter of a second.

01:49:13.600 I have to not move my thumb a half an inch to the thing.

01:49:17.880 It is.

01:49:19.540 I can't believe I lived a day without face ID.

01:49:23.500 I can't even believe I was able to exist on this earth without being able to log into my

01:49:29.500 smartphone without my face.

01:49:30.700 It's so funny that you say that because we have an old iPad at the house and the kids use

01:49:36.700 it and they'll come up and they'll be like, dad.

01:49:39.500 I need the password or something.

01:49:40.600 And I keep putting my thumb on that and they're like, no, dad, it's the old one.

01:49:46.020 I'm like, oh my gosh, how did we live?

01:49:48.040 I don't know what those numbers are.

01:49:50.360 It's insane.

01:49:51.300 There's four of them.

01:49:53.080 How am I supposed to retain that?

01:49:55.900 It happens so fast.

01:49:58.700 I mean, it's within a week.

01:50:01.520 I can't even remember how to log in with my fingerprint.

01:50:09.500 All right.

01:50:15.880 You want to make your life safer?

01:50:20.600 You want to take a worry away from yourself?

01:50:24.460 Studies show security systems deter burglars, but there's still a burglary in America every

01:50:29.640 eight seconds.

01:50:31.140 So what do they do?

01:50:32.680 Well, they find a house usually that just doesn't have a burglar alarm.

01:50:35.240 Remember back in the 80s when burglar alarms were really, really expensive and, you know,

01:50:39.460 families like mine were like, oh, can we just buy the sign and put that up?

01:50:44.980 We don't we don't have the money for all the equipment.

01:50:47.100 We just want the sign that says it's protected by simply safe.

01:50:50.940 You would have paid more for the sign back then than you're going to pay for the entire

01:50:54.720 thing for your house was simply safe.

01:50:56.580 It is ridiculously inexpensive, really smart.

01:50:59.460 Sensors will protect every access point of your home.

01:51:02.360 If there's a burglar that tries to break in, it's not going to it's just not going to

01:51:06.340 happen.

01:51:07.080 Ear shattering siren.

01:51:08.160 Um, you can also get, uh, the cameras that take the predict of the picture.

01:51:13.680 So, you know, exactly who set that alarm off.

01:51:16.440 You'll see the face and simply safe has monitoring 24 seven, $14 and 99 cents a month, and they

01:51:23.320 never lock you into a contract.

01:51:25.000 So do it now, even a 60 day money back guarantee, but you're going to love it.

01:51:29.560 The only security system that you should really be looking at, I want you to do your own homework,

01:51:34.420 but you will start there first and then go look everywhere else.

01:51:38.580 You're going to come back to simply safe, simply safe back.com.

01:51:42.480 Go there.

01:51:42.860 Now, save big simply safe back.com.

01:51:48.420 Glenn Beck.

01:51:50.320 Mercury.

01:51:58.100 Glenn Beck.

01:51:59.540 So today at Glenn Beck.com, we have, uh, we've broken down the 40 predictions, um, for

01:52:06.760 2018 from me, and we're covering just the political, uh, predictions and you can vote

01:52:12.200 them up or down.

01:52:12.780 Which ones do you think are crazy?

01:52:14.400 Which ones do you think might happen?

01:52:15.940 Uh, you can check it out at Glenn Beck.com and, uh, sign up to get the newsletter, which

01:52:19.540 will have all 40 of them.

01:52:21.180 Uh, and your participation is really critical on this.

01:52:24.540 Um, I, I'd like to add another one.

01:52:26.400 That politically, this may be the year that I start drinking again.

01:52:31.020 Ooh, really?

01:52:32.060 Joe Arpaio is now officially a candidate for the Senate.

01:52:35.100 If we have Oprah as a candidate for president, President Donald Trump as the president and

01:52:41.940 Joe Arpaio in the Senate, I think I need to start drinking again.

01:52:45.940 Okay.

01:52:48.240 Thank you.

01:52:58.540 Thank you.
