The Glenn Beck Program - 11⧸2⧸17 - How To Invest in Bitcoin？ (Vince Ousley joins Glenn)

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

00:00:10.460 Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck.

00:00:16.000 He did this in the name of ISIS. That's the Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism for the NYPD.

00:00:22.660 The disturbing details of how Saipov, the Uzbek immigrant-turned-terrorist, planned and executed his attack is becoming very clear.

00:00:33.700 And it needs to become clear to all of us that times are changing.

00:00:38.480 The narrative gives us a frightening look inside of the mind of a cold-blooded and calculated killer.

00:00:44.960 Saipov had been planning his attack on Manhattan, the West Side bike path, for a year.

00:00:49.960 We still don't know when or how long he had been radicalized, but for any new and aspiring ISIS recruit, getting instruction from the caliphate is actually pretty easy.

00:01:01.260 You just pull up an app on your phone and log into the Internet.

00:01:05.120 Both ISIS and al-Qaeda give instructions and directions online that acts as some sort of demented University of Phoenix for terrorists.

00:01:15.160 I hope we're monitoring that.

00:01:20.800 Several months ago, ISIS began telling their followers to stop coming to Syria and to Iraq.

00:01:26.240 They could be more effective by staying in their home countries.

00:01:29.320 ISIS began directing their soldiers to use vehicles as weapons in order to stay off the radar of law enforcement.

00:01:36.140 Saipov took this instruction and made the decision around September to use a truck.

00:01:41.220 On October 4th, he searched online for a Home Depot store in New Jersey.

00:01:47.540 He noted a location that rented trucks and continued his preparation.

00:01:52.640 On the 18th of last month, he began looking for the best spot to execute his attack.

00:01:58.420 He wanted to inflict the maximum amount of casualties, but not just any people would do.

00:02:04.960 He wanted to make a statement.

00:02:06.580 He looked up Halloween in New York City.

00:02:12.120 You can only imagine what he saw as he clicked through image after image of trick-or-treaters walking down the West Side Path.

00:02:18.740 He chose specifically this location with hopes that children would be killed.

00:02:25.320 He rented a practice truck on October 22nd.

00:02:33.800 He began making his dry runs.

00:02:35.680 On October 28th, he scoped the target location one last time he was ready.

00:02:41.680 He carried a stun gun, three knives, just in case he lived long enough to use them.

00:02:45.920 He originally planned on hanging two ISIS flags on the front and the back of the truck, but changed his mind the last minute.

00:02:53.020 He didn't want to risk attracting attention before entering the walkway.

00:02:58.000 Inside the truck, police found a handwritten note, both Arabic and English.

00:03:02.460 It read,

00:03:03.260 No God, but God and Mohammed as his prophet.

00:03:09.740 Islam will endure.

00:03:11.200 We are entering a new era in the war on terror, where people can be radicalized, taught, and instructed from the comfort of their own home anywhere in the world.

00:03:26.000 They're smart, they're calculating, and they are devoted.

00:03:31.160 The terrorists have evolved.

00:03:33.120 The question is, can we stop arguing with one another long enough to evolve to stop them?

00:03:50.800 It's Thursday, November 2nd.

00:03:53.200 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:54.820 Prominent Islamic reformer, the Imam, Mohammed Tahiti, claims now he repeatedly warned Bill de Blasio, the mayor of New York City, about Islamic terror hotbeds and the potential oncoming attacks starting years ago, but has been continuously ignored.

00:04:18.980 Quote, about the New York City terrorist attack, I personally sent letters to Mayor de Blasio online and in person about terrorist breeding in New York.

00:04:28.160 He did nothing.

00:04:30.340 Now, this is a guy who was born in Iran.

00:04:32.640 He's a Muslim reformist.

00:04:34.180 He said, I sent Bill de Blasio an alarming letter through his website.

00:04:43.540 Then I sent it to his office, and my employee approached Bill de Blasio's people in person.

00:04:50.080 He's part of the problem.

00:04:52.280 He knows where the extremist organizations in New York City are.

00:04:55.920 Can he deny it?

00:04:56.980 He can't deny.

00:04:58.240 So what has he done so far?

00:05:00.140 Nothing.

00:05:00.620 Nothing.

00:05:04.180 He said about Bill de Blasio, now you classify this as an act of terror?

00:05:08.720 There are terrorist breeding centers in New York City.

00:05:11.840 I wrote you last year, but you did nothing.

00:05:15.040 Sad.

00:05:15.960 It's almost like Donald Trump wrote that.

00:05:18.560 Sad.

00:05:20.200 The counterterrorism expert who dubs himself the Imam of Peace.

00:05:26.360 He's a known reformer.

00:05:28.660 He is a guy who is on constant state of alert.

00:05:41.320 He said, the mayor and the left's propensity to deny reality that Islamic extremism exists.

00:05:48.720 My legal team will write letters, and we will release them tomorrow.

00:05:53.760 We just were on the phone with Imam Tahiti.

00:05:57.720 He is in Australia now.

00:05:59.920 So it is in the middle of the night, or it's 6 p.m.

00:06:08.360 I can't remember what time it is, but it's not a convenient time for him to talk.

00:06:11.720 He'll be on with us next week to talk about this.

00:06:16.060 He is friends with Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who is one of the bravest women alive today.

00:06:24.460 This is the kind of stuff that causes the Bubba effect.

00:06:29.100 And I believe that what the media doesn't understand, and what many people in America don't understand,

00:06:40.500 is Donald Trump, his presidency, is part of the Bubba effect.

00:06:47.360 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:06:48.440 We know what he's doing wrong, but what have you been doing?

00:06:52.380 Is that not the Bubba effect?

00:06:54.100 Remember, this is something that came to me through special forces when Bush was president.

00:07:00.580 I asked them when I was, you know, at the head of special forces, and I was talking to them casually,

00:07:13.020 and I said, so what keeps you up at night?

00:07:15.460 And they said, not the same stuff that keeps you up at night.

00:07:18.240 And I said, what is it?

00:07:19.460 And they said, something called the Bubba effect.

00:07:21.460 I'd never heard of it.

00:07:22.340 They said, that's when the people start to turn on the government.

00:07:27.700 And that's what we're really preparing for, is when, and remember, this is during, this is probably 2005, maybe?

00:07:38.600 And I couldn't, I mean, it just didn't even occur to me that that could be true.

00:07:42.500 He said, when, when, when people start to turn on the government, because we believe what will happen is Washington will pussyfoot around and they will be seen eventually as not doing enough to stop terror.

00:07:57.880 And somebody will go, and there will be a big terrorist activity.

00:08:03.100 And then somebody will go into a grocery store and he's a Sikh, which has nothing to do with Islam.

00:08:12.200 And he'll walk into a grocery store or 7-Eleven and Bubba will be there with his gun.

00:08:16.340 And he'll walk up and he said, you people, you're the problem here.

00:08:20.000 And he'll shoot the Sikh.

00:08:22.720 Well, the FBI will come to town and want to arrest Bubba.

00:08:28.000 And what people will say is, turn your cars around.

00:08:33.400 You're part of the problem.

00:08:35.780 You've known about this.

00:08:37.480 You've done nothing.

00:08:38.640 Yes, what Bubba did is wrong and we know it.

00:08:43.800 But you're a bigger problem.

00:08:47.480 I believe that is, I believe that is happening now in, in a lesser degree.

00:08:54.340 It is already happening.

00:08:56.480 People are supporting things they know aren't right.

00:09:00.020 They would never support, but they see a bigger wrong.

00:09:04.380 You, you are supporting Paul Manafort.

00:09:07.280 People are.

00:09:09.140 Why?

00:09:09.920 You know that guy's a dirtbag.

00:09:11.900 Well, because they're focused on a bigger wrong.

00:09:15.640 Wait a minute.

00:09:16.900 We know what Paul did was wrong, but why aren't you guys looking at that?

00:09:20.840 If you want to get Paul, then you got to get these guys too.

00:09:23.980 That's the Bubba effect.

00:09:28.380 The Bubba effect happens when you lose confidence.

00:09:31.960 We all know that there is, there is a, a line we're not even close to, and that line is common sense.

00:09:45.900 Because most Americans know, the vast majority of Americans know.

00:09:52.160 I'm not with the Antifa people, and I'm not with the Nazi people.

00:09:57.540 I'm not with the, you know, God hates fags people, and I'm not with the Hollywood crowd.

00:10:04.220 I'm not with either of those.

00:10:07.540 I don't have a problem.

00:10:10.320 The vast majority of Americans don't have a problem with one another.

00:10:14.860 We can live.

00:10:15.800 We're still kind.

00:10:17.240 We're still those people.

00:10:19.860 But it seems like all of the forces are going in the opposite direction.

00:10:26.980 Did you hear about the woman who tried to get a job at a, I think it's a local high school.

00:10:33.100 I'm going to give it to you later.

00:10:34.600 She tried to get a job as a coach.

00:10:36.520 Well, she was a lesbian who had given up her lesbian lifestyle.

00:10:41.940 She was immediately rejected for the position.

00:10:44.120 Well, what?

00:10:46.240 Why?

00:10:49.340 Politically incorrect.

00:10:50.760 She was rejected because she rejected her lesbian lifestyle.

00:10:56.880 Keep track of the stuff.

00:10:58.040 I know.

00:10:58.380 It's crazy.

00:10:59.140 It's crazy.

00:11:00.560 Now, most people, most people don't have a problem.

00:11:05.480 What you do in your bedroom, you do in your bedroom.

00:11:09.300 What people are having a problem with is jamming things down everyone's throat.

00:11:14.120 And forcing everyone to live a certain way.

00:11:19.760 That's what they say they have a problem with Christians.

00:11:22.300 And you know what?

00:11:23.020 Some Christians I have a problem with, too.

00:11:25.460 Because you have to live their way.

00:11:28.520 Well, no.

00:11:30.460 That's not the way Jesus was talking about it.

00:11:32.620 Christians live a different lifestyle, and they're peacemakers, and they're kind, and they help the poor, and they stand on what they believe is true, and they're willing to die for what they believe is true.

00:11:45.140 But Jesus wasn't like, you will get baptized, or I'm going to get the government involved.

00:11:51.740 No, he wouldn't have done that.

00:11:53.300 And most Christians know that.

00:11:57.080 And most Christians would never force people.

00:12:03.980 We've been controlled by the edges and the extremes.

00:12:09.260 And I, for one, am tired of it.

00:12:12.580 Because we're not getting anything done.

00:12:15.140 We're not actually protecting our children.

00:12:18.180 Because of political correctness, because of political agendas, kids were killed on Monday.

00:12:29.240 If it wasn't for Bill de Blasio's political agenda, he would have listened to this imam.

00:12:35.300 They would have listened, most likely.

00:12:38.220 But, I mean, even if they listened, whether they could have stopped this particular attack is a question.

00:12:42.600 Are they going in?

00:12:43.160 Yeah, I agree with that.

00:12:44.380 Yeah.

00:12:44.520 But are they going into these, are they going into these mosques?

00:12:48.880 Are they going into these hotbeds?

00:12:51.100 I think the answer to that is probably no, right?

00:12:53.340 Yeah.

00:12:53.700 I mean, it's, I think sometimes it happens.

00:12:55.900 There are certain, when they really have a, really have a reason.

00:12:59.860 Yes.

00:13:00.180 But it's more rare than it should be, because people are afraid of the backlash.

00:13:04.420 Right.

00:13:05.040 And, you know, God bless the FBI.

00:13:07.820 The FBI has probably saved us from many of these that we don't know about.

00:13:12.940 So, God bless the actual agents.

00:13:17.560 But from any agent that I've ever talked to, they're all so frustrated because the upper end, the Washington crew, they know what's right.

00:13:27.660 And they're not doing it because of political correctness.

00:13:31.000 There's a story in TheBlaze.com.

00:13:49.080 Most people cannot remember a worse time in America.

00:13:55.300 That's incredible.

00:13:56.600 Meanwhile, depression rates and suicide rates are going through the roof.

00:14:02.940 We'll talk about those here in just a few minutes.

00:14:05.660 Number of Americans preparing for emergencies have soared.

00:14:09.640 Why?

00:14:10.100 Because, look, you know, I've got some stories today that I think you're seeing top-down, bottom-up, inside-out being perpetrated on the right.

00:14:26.820 Right now.

00:14:28.180 Antifa is claiming that they are going to take a, you know, national action beginning November 4th until Trump is removed from office.

00:14:38.820 But Steve Bannon is also doing something that is really disturbing.

00:14:43.320 And I want to talk to you about it.

00:14:45.080 I think it is top-down, bottom-up, inside-out on both sides.

00:14:48.800 We should point out, too, that we have a really in-depth look at Antifa coming up, not next week, but the week after, on a week-long chalkboard series, looking back at the history, how they got here, what they're actually trying to do, how they're structured, going through all of it.

00:15:03.960 But if you've heard the term Antifa a million times and you just see them protesting at colleges and don't know all of this, it's, you know, there's a lot to know.

00:15:12.260 And it goes back, you know, a century.

00:15:15.560 It really is pretty interesting.

00:15:17.040 So that's coming up in a couple weeks.

00:15:18.120 People have asked, you know, for chalkboards and asked, you know, Glenn, you've got to go back and start showing us the connections.

00:15:28.340 Okay.

00:15:29.740 I will tell you that I have had a big change in my life in the last eight months, and it has been what matters most.

00:15:38.620 And when you really start to focus on what matters most, then you start to look at, what do I do?

00:15:45.600 But if I narrow it down, what do I do?

00:15:48.680 And you start to look at it and say, well, what do I do best?

00:15:53.320 And I think laying things out on a chalkboard is one of the things I do best.

00:15:57.760 And we've changed the show in the last two weeks, and it's getting rave reviews.

00:16:02.740 So if you haven't watched the show in a long time or haven't been a subscriber to The Blaze, just watch this week because you'll see the chalkboards we are teaching socialism today.

00:16:14.140 We tell you the truth about socialism and free universal college education.

00:16:21.400 I cannot believe, I cannot believe the truth behind the free education in Sweden that no one has ever talked about.

00:16:32.300 No one ever says this.

00:16:33.860 Oh, you won't believe it tonight.

00:16:35.580 Anyway, so people are preparing.

00:16:38.140 My Patriot Supply will help you prepare for emergencies.

00:17:36.520 Glenn Beck.

00:17:47.300 Glenn Beck.

00:17:49.260 If you're a cat person, you should not pay attention for a while.

00:17:58.320 People love their dogs more than people.

00:18:03.340 Now, I don't think that's new.

00:18:06.000 However, according to two new major studies, it's getting, it's reaching, I think, frightening levels.

00:18:16.600 There was a study done in England, and you were showed two advertisements.

00:18:21.380 One was, would you save, would you give five pounds to save Harrison from a slow, painful death?

00:18:31.620 The two ads, one was a puppy or a dog, and the other was a person.

00:18:42.080 The puppy, yes.

00:18:44.580 Yes.

00:18:45.680 The dog, yes.

00:18:47.860 The person, no, not really.

00:18:50.760 Now, that was the first.

00:18:51.740 The next one, students were shown fake newspaper clippings about a baseball attack on a puppy, on an adult dog, on a year-old infant, and a 30-year-old adult.

00:19:04.520 They were asked questions to gauge their empathy, and the adult finished last.

00:19:11.480 Only the infant received a slightly higher level of empathy than the puppy, and then the adult dog, and then the person.

00:19:25.760 That's not rational.

00:19:30.320 What you're describing is not rational.

00:19:32.400 No, no.

00:19:32.700 I mean, we should have, I mean, I could be fine with the scores were tied.

00:19:38.120 Scores were tied.

00:19:39.200 Yeah.

00:19:39.900 I could live with that.

00:19:40.800 I mean, I can understand it.

00:19:42.440 It doesn't make sense.

00:19:43.940 Though it was, they've dove into this pretty deeply in the documentary, The Boss Baby, in which, really, the issue was with that is that babies no longer got the love and attention,

00:19:55.040 and the puppies were passing them in the cuteness scale.

00:19:57.840 Right.

00:19:58.180 And that was what this organization was actually put together to fight against.

00:20:01.960 Okay, that was not a documentary, but.

00:20:04.320 And it was, at the end, I mean, I don't want to give anything away here, but it's a true story.

00:20:07.860 Yeah.

00:20:08.360 They did wind up turning that around a little bit, which was, I think, a positive thing for humanity.

00:20:12.900 Right.

00:20:13.140 Because if people like dogs more than babies, who knows what could happen?

00:20:17.000 You could maybe abort 50 million of them.

00:20:19.000 That would be a terrible consequence of something like that.

00:20:21.540 Can you imagine, though?

00:20:22.420 Can you imagine an organization, trying to start an organization that would abort puppies?

00:20:28.180 People would never let it happen.

00:20:29.640 Nope.

00:20:31.140 Glenn Beck.

00:20:38.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:42.200 People are worried about money.

00:20:43.740 People are worried about work.

00:20:44.960 But now, the current national and world events are more escapable than ever.

00:20:49.500 People are worrying about the future of the United States more than anything else.

00:20:54.140 The American Psychological Association released its annual Stress in America survey,

00:20:58.720 which revealed that most Americans cannot remember a time where it has been worse.

00:21:06.000 Survey findings.

00:21:07.060 63% of respondents report significant stress about the future of America.

00:21:14.320 63.

00:21:16.420 62% say money is a big source of stress.

00:21:19.460 61% cite work.

00:21:22.520 59% say the present time is the lowest point in the nation's history that they can remember.

00:21:29.040 This includes some people that lived through World War II.

00:21:33.780 Think of that.

00:21:34.560 Vietnam, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and September 11th.

00:21:40.900 The leading source of respondents stress, healthcare, 43%.

00:21:46.120 The economy, 35%.

00:21:48.560 After that, trust in the government, 32%.

00:21:51.340 Hate crime, other crimes, 31%.

00:21:53.680 Wars and terrorist attacks coming in at 30%.

00:21:56.720 Look at that.

00:21:58.040 Did you see the latest on healthcare, that healthcare, the average silver plan, when Obamacare first came out,

00:22:10.680 the average silver plan was about $10,000 a year.

00:22:14.800 The average silver plan today is $21,000 a year.

00:22:21.760 That is insanity.

00:22:24.240 It's insanity.

00:22:25.240 Why are we not rising up and say, get the government out of this?

00:22:31.420 They've doubled the cost.

00:22:36.480 News consumption now is at an all-time high, and social media gives more exposure to ever than the problems that Americans face.

00:22:45.240 According to the survey, 20% of the people check social media constantly.

00:22:51.580 56% of the respondents say that staying informed causes them stress.

00:22:56.080 You should try to be on this side of the microphone.

00:22:59.060 You should see the stuff we leave out.

00:23:01.160 72% of the respondents say they think the media blows things out of proportion, adding to stress.

00:23:11.140 87%.

00:23:11.580 Most Americans, 87% agree that everybody needs to take a deep breath and just calm down.

00:23:19.960 It's hard to, you know, I think we get lost in the nonsense of the day-to-day.

00:23:27.700 You know, I mean, you talked about a stat like this just the other day, but since 1990, 17,258 children die.

00:23:38.600 Less, excuse me, let me say that again.

00:23:41.960 It used to be 17,258 children would die every day that are currently not dying.

00:23:48.360 The improvement we've made since 1990 globally.

00:23:51.020 So it's a 53% drop in the amount of kids that don't make it to five years old.

00:23:57.620 Wow.

00:23:58.460 Since 1990.

00:24:00.840 That's since, I mean, how is that possible?

00:24:03.720 I mean, it's, you know, it's been said that it's the greatest human achievement ever.

00:24:10.420 And I think, I don't see how you don't look at it that way.

00:24:12.720 I mean, all these kids that used to die now live.

00:24:17.120 And it comes out to, it's over 6 million a year, 17,000 plus per day that used to die in 1990 and now live because of improvements largely through capitalism.

00:24:30.320 Causing problems with overpopulation and global warming.

00:24:32.720 Exactly. And that's the way people look at it.

00:24:34.620 They look at it all negative.

00:24:35.820 And it's like, while we do have so many things that are so irritating and so many problems that we can focus on every day, those huge things, that's way bigger than anything we've even talked about.

00:24:48.380 I mean, think about this.

00:24:49.320 We would, we'll talk for days and days and days about a terrorist attack that kills people and it's horrible and we have to stop it.

00:24:55.600 And it's, it's a big deal.

00:24:56.800 I'm not saying it's not, but I mean, you know, we'll talk about that for days and we'll never even mention something like that.

00:25:02.540 Yeah.

00:25:04.040 Millions of children, millions of children every year are surviving that used to just die for no reason other than we couldn't feed them.

00:25:13.140 Well, if you remember right, we gave you the stats that in 1830, 1830, was it 87% of the population or 93%?

00:25:24.520 Oh, it was 98%, I think, in 1820, wasn't it?

00:25:27.460 Yeah.

00:25:27.820 Something like that.

00:25:28.420 Lived in extreme poverty, right?

00:25:29.800 Yeah.

00:25:30.000 Is that the one you're talking about?

00:25:30.300 It was, yeah, extreme poverty.

00:25:32.840 It was around 90, it was really close to 100%, but it was around 90%, okay?

00:25:39.180 Extreme poverty.

00:25:40.520 That number is now down globally to 9.7.

00:25:44.600 That, hello?

00:25:48.580 It's a miracle.

00:25:49.740 It is a miracle.

00:25:51.260 Absolute miracle.

00:25:52.280 And it's something that we never think about because it's, it happens slowly.

00:25:57.520 It, you know, there's no, like, you know, I remember John Stossel did a report on this a long time ago about when they fire an entire factory in a town.

00:26:05.340 And, you know, they'll, they'll close down a factory and it's obviously a big deal.

00:26:10.480 And what happens is all the news, local news organizations go to that factory and everyone's walking out with boxes of their stuff and they're carrying out all their belongings.

00:26:19.060 They're crying.

00:26:19.740 They've lost their livelihood.

00:26:21.320 Terrible, terrible tragedy.

00:26:22.520 And it's an easy way to illustrate how bad free trade is, right?

00:26:27.540 There's never, it's a lot harder to do a report on the people who left that job and got better jobs a month later and are much happier two years from that point.

00:26:38.500 Now, he went and actually decided to do that and found people from those factories who had, who that had happened to.

00:26:45.340 And when you look at the overall economic statistics, you can find that data very easily, but it's very difficult to illustrate for a local news station.

00:26:52.940 It's really easy to extrapolate that to things like the horse and buggy industry.

00:27:00.160 Look how many people were displaced and how bad that was for a while.

00:27:06.020 Yeah.

00:27:06.440 It killed an entire industry.

00:27:07.760 Everyone who had the horse and buggy businesses all went down in the tubes.

00:27:11.140 And unless you look back at it a few years later and you go, wow, look at what happened once we stop riding horses and start using cars.

00:27:19.060 It was a lot better.

00:27:19.980 Well, except for global warming.

00:27:22.640 I don't know.

00:27:23.380 The horse thing would be right.

00:27:24.840 Yeah, probably.

00:27:25.480 It had its own environmental problems.

00:27:27.220 Yeah, it did.

00:27:27.780 Piles of manure everywhere.

00:27:29.380 It wasn't exactly positive either.

00:27:31.220 So here's why I mentioned this.

00:27:33.440 We are, we're entering a time and I want you to know, we make it through this.

00:27:40.920 We go to the other side.

00:27:42.840 And I don't mean like, you know, to the other side, like, uh, uh, you know, we die.

00:27:49.900 I mean, we make it through this.

00:27:51.700 We do whatever is coming.

00:27:54.100 We make it through, but we have to hold on to each other and we have to be able to hold on to hope.

00:28:01.680 And this is, this is the thing that anarchists, um, and anyone who wants to cause any kind of trouble, this is what they, they, they try to destroy your hope.

00:28:16.760 And then give you hope in something false, hope in them.

00:28:23.500 Usually hope in a person, hope in something like, you know, communism that never works.

00:28:30.520 Um, you have to have hope in something that is real depression rates.

00:28:37.500 Now for teenagers going through the roof in general, the suicide rate has gone from 6.6 to 17.

00:28:46.760 Uh, sorry, to 6.6 to 7.3, but in ages 12 to 17, it has gone up 8.7 in 2005 to 12.9 in 2015.

00:29:04.260 The youth is lost.

00:29:06.440 There is, there aren't, there aren't, what can they believe in?

00:29:12.080 What can they trust?

00:29:13.560 What's universally true?

00:29:15.120 What hope do they have?

00:29:19.320 Really?

00:29:20.000 Seriously?

00:29:20.640 What hope do they have?

00:29:22.940 Fame?

00:29:24.960 They don't want to be like us.

00:29:26.920 They don't want to be like their parents.

00:29:28.600 They see their parents racked with debt, working so hard, frustrated with everything that's going on in the world.

00:29:35.600 They see this system, this global system as being completely bogus, only adding to misery.

00:29:42.980 They don't want any part of that.

00:29:44.780 And no one is talking to them about a brighter future.

00:29:48.360 And what they're, what's happening to them is they're able to connect with each other better than ever before.

00:29:55.500 They're able to communicate.

00:29:56.720 But what's being communicated on those devices?

00:30:01.620 What is it doing?

00:30:04.020 It is sucking them in to a world that is getting smaller and smaller and smaller instead of bigger and bigger and bigger.

00:30:13.760 And it's not causing them happiness because of the Facebook effect.

00:30:18.100 Everybody has a perfect life.

00:30:19.740 Everybody is happy.

00:30:21.420 Except them.

00:30:23.320 No.

00:30:24.720 No.

00:30:25.180 Facebook is another lie.

00:30:27.400 You're being sucked into another lie.

00:30:30.320 Nothing is more essential than protecting your home.

00:30:55.400 But traditional home security is a punishing and expensive task.

00:30:59.100 There is a better way.

00:31:00.320 You can protect your home with SimpliSafe.

00:31:02.620 Anybody who's been locked into a long-term contract, you know that you're in this thing for, you know, at least three years, five years.

00:31:10.120 The installation cost through the roof.

00:31:12.660 And then they've hardwired the system and you don't really even own it.

00:31:16.580 And by the time, you know, you move or something, you don't own it.

00:31:20.060 So you can't move with it.

00:31:21.280 You've paid for it about four times over.

00:31:24.800 And what?

00:32:08.060 SimpliSafeBeck.com.

00:32:08.620 I'm actually starting to get excited for the singularity.

00:32:26.060 I'm doing a lot of research on the future of tech, and I started to reread the Ray Kurzweil book, Singularity is Near.

00:32:38.440 Which is when man and machine become one, basically, right?

00:32:42.200 Like where there's no, you can't no longer tell the difference between them.

00:32:45.720 Yeah, and you start to merge.

00:32:49.460 And so...

00:32:50.260 But he really does look at it positively, right?

00:32:52.300 Oh, yeah, he does.

00:32:53.100 He thinks there's this really exciting possibilities for the future.

00:32:55.380 Yeah, he's a fascinating guy.

00:32:58.080 We have to get him back on.

00:33:00.380 My first interview with him, I waited, I think, 12 years.

00:33:05.600 Remember?

00:33:06.040 Oh, that was a huge deal.

00:33:07.380 Huge deal.

00:33:07.880 CNN Headline News, we did it, right?

00:33:08.940 Yeah, I tried to get him for 12 years.

00:33:10.840 He would never come on.

00:33:13.240 And finally got him after 12 years of asking.

00:33:17.240 And he is fascinating to listen to.

00:33:21.300 You know, his parents escaped from Nazi Germany.

00:33:23.880 Uh, and his grandparents, uh, did as well.

00:33:28.780 Uh, and he, when he was raised here in America, his parents said, you know what?

00:33:36.440 It is, what happened in Germany is people started to divide themselves and nobody got to know

00:33:43.240 the Jews.

00:33:44.060 Nobody got to know each other.

00:33:46.080 And they all started to divide themselves.

00:33:48.120 See if that sounds familiar.

00:33:48.900 And, uh, so his parents took him to a universalist, Unitarian Universalist church, which is, you know,

00:33:55.900 basically it, that's the church, that's the church where I swear to you, Tanya and I went

00:34:00.660 when we went on our church tour.

00:34:02.660 And your church tour was, you were looking for a church to join before you got married.

00:34:06.420 Yeah, looking for a church that, yeah, the two of us could agree on.

00:34:08.740 And, uh, so, uh, went on this church tour and we went to the universalist, uh, Unitarian

00:34:14.840 church.

00:34:15.560 And that's the one that the preacher said halfway through the service in his sermon.

00:34:21.340 Now you all know that I don't believe in God, but we were like, what?

00:34:28.940 The preacher, the preacher doesn't believe in God.

00:34:31.380 Why?

00:34:32.060 You should put that on the front door.

00:34:34.420 Come on in.

00:34:35.260 Our preacher doesn't believe in God.

00:34:37.120 I mean, that's something you lead with.

00:34:39.160 I think.

00:34:39.660 Now, you know, I think this vacuum is a piece of crap, but we really need you to buy it.

00:34:43.300 I mean, it was incredible.

00:34:44.860 It was just incredible.

00:34:45.940 So, um, uh, he started going to a universalist church when he was a kid and his, what his parents

00:34:51.960 said was, we're going to go here and then, uh, we're going to learn everything about

00:34:56.400 it.

00:34:56.580 And then in a couple of months, we're going to go to another church and we're going to

00:34:59.760 learn everything about it.

00:35:00.880 And then we're going to go to another church and we're going to learn everything about it.

00:35:04.400 And so he, he became this, this kid that was fascinated with what we have in common,

00:35:13.100 because what he found is most of the churches and most of the religion had a vast majority

00:35:22.060 of things in common.

00:35:23.380 And while the differences really set them apart, what connected them was more important.

00:35:32.380 Uh, and so he's, he's always had this, you know, weird kind of thinking, uh, and, uh, or

00:35:39.440 different kind of thinking, you know, he's, he's six years old in 1950s and he's trying

00:35:45.580 to build a rocket ship long before anybody else is actually building when he's, he wants

00:35:50.660 to go to the moon.

00:35:52.400 Uh, and then by 1965, he starts to realize, you know, maybe I should, maybe I should start

00:35:57.860 doing something that will actually happen.

00:36:01.380 Um, you know, in my backyard and he started as this inventor and realized everyone was

00:36:08.160 wrong about predicting the future because they weren't taking in exponential growth.

00:36:14.520 And so he started out as in the seventies, he was saying, no one can predict the future.

00:36:20.400 Everyone's always wrong with the flying cars and everything else always wrong.

00:36:24.480 You cannot predict the future.

00:36:25.900 And then he started studying exponential growth of computers and he realized, wait a minute,

00:36:33.860 I think you can.

00:36:35.580 And he had it protect, um, uh, perfected by 1990.

00:36:41.100 And that's when he wrote the age of spiritual machines, no human machines or something like

00:36:46.980 that.

00:36:47.240 And then the age of spiritual machines came out and now he's talking about the singularity

00:36:52.100 and he says the singularity will happen by 2029, uh, and we will be able to upgrade our

00:37:00.500 thinking by 2025, 2025 upgrade our thinking.

00:37:08.160 He says that human and, you know, Stephen Hawking just came out with something yesterday where

00:37:14.100 he said the human race is over and I haven't had time to read the whole thing.

00:37:19.960 I just grabbed that story.

00:37:21.060 I haven't had time to read the whole thing, but I think he's saying kind of the same thing

00:37:24.800 that Steven, that, uh, that Ray Kurzweil was saying that the human race, as we know it

00:37:30.060 is over, but we merge with machines and we become something far greater.

00:37:37.320 It's bizarre.

00:37:39.800 Glenn Beck.

00:37:48.600 Love.

00:37:49.960 Courage.

00:37:51.540 Truth.

00:37:52.820 Glenn Beck.

00:37:53.860 First responders are often completely wrong.

00:37:57.000 And I'm not talking about police or paramedics.

00:37:59.480 I'm talking about the first responder.

00:38:02.120 I believe first responders are us.

00:38:04.760 And when you are the first responder on Twitter or Facebook, the ones that rush to announce that

00:38:10.920 an incident is not Islamic related terrorism, they're almost always wrong.

00:38:16.520 After Tuesday's terrorist attack in New York City, for example, a Twitter account called

00:38:21.060 New York City alerts tweeted breaking update.

00:38:23.940 NYPD official confirms incident in downtown Manhattan was not terror related.

00:38:28.980 Completely false.

00:38:30.940 Later, they tweeted, uh, per the PD sources, uh, a fight between two truck drivers led to

00:38:37.440 one truck hitting multiple pedestrians and one truck driver opened fire.

00:38:41.500 Yeah, that's again, that's that's your attempt to recover from not Islamic extremists.

00:38:49.460 You just made it worse.

00:38:50.460 We've seen other examples like this in recent years calling the 2015 San Bernardino terrorist

00:38:56.180 attack workplace violence.

00:38:58.260 Social media users misidentifying the Charlottesville killer, which forced a Michigan man and his family

00:39:04.520 to flee their home because of death threats.

00:39:06.620 Sometimes it's people on the far left, sometimes people on the far right.

00:39:12.420 Somebody out there always has a reason to spread false information that helps their agenda.

00:39:17.660 But sometimes it's just people trying to be the first to report something and get a bunch of retweets.

00:39:23.360 Either way, not helpful.

00:39:25.640 Either way, don't believe it.

00:39:27.420 In 1844, a New York Herald reporter wrote about a remarkable new telegraph technology, said there

00:39:35.840 is nothing now left for invention to achieve, but to discover news before it takes place.

00:39:43.580 Wait, what?

00:39:45.480 Guess what?

00:39:46.220 They've invented that.

00:39:47.780 They're describing our current fake news in social media.

00:39:52.040 It's it's finding news before it happens.

00:39:55.440 Ironically, our instant communication doesn't help us get to the truth faster.

00:40:01.160 It does just the opposite.

00:40:03.040 This week, Congress is fretting about the ads that Russia polluted our Facebook feeds with

00:40:08.680 last year.

00:40:09.700 Some of the ads may have looked convincing, but the ad can't hypnotize you and cause you

00:40:16.420 to press the like or share buttons.

00:40:19.200 You actually have to do that.

00:40:21.680 And we have to be more discerning than that.

00:40:24.680 The fake news problem isn't about shutting down whoever is creating the fake content.

00:40:30.080 The fake news problem is about Americans losing this ability to recognize propaganda and then

00:40:38.940 even care about it.

00:40:41.720 Sure, it may be difficult to discern at times.

00:40:45.400 It might require extra effort.

00:40:47.460 I say this often because I believe it's important advice.

00:40:53.860 You got to do your own homework.

00:40:56.620 If we can't get a handle on how to responsibly navigate something like social media, wait until

00:41:02.620 AI gets further down the tracks.

00:41:04.560 Then we're really then we're really in trouble because AI will know exactly how to play you

00:41:09.460 for clicks, for likes, for cash.

00:41:17.660 When we get to that point, we might want to go back to the invention of the future.

00:41:25.060 The telegram might be a great option.

00:41:27.660 It's Thursday, November 2nd.

00:41:38.200 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:41:40.860 All right.

00:41:41.500 So the house has just released their tax plan.

00:41:44.500 And let's get to it because there's there's a lot of stuff in there that is not what the

00:41:50.620 speculation was saying that had me gravely concerned.

00:41:54.940 Well, yeah, it depends on how you look at it, I suppose.

00:41:59.140 Well, let me ask you this.

00:42:00.900 The the worst thing that we could do is put a phase out on corporate taxes.

00:42:08.280 Right.

00:42:08.740 And that does not seem to have it as a permanent 20 percent corporate income tax rate.

00:42:13.020 That would be good.

00:42:13.840 That will help create jobs.

00:42:16.400 Yeah, you'd think so.

00:42:17.440 Right.

00:42:17.720 From from where it is now, the highest in the world, basically highest in the world to

00:42:21.860 20 percent permanent, something that corporations can count on.

00:42:26.800 I think that's really good.

00:42:27.980 If you could get it down to 15 percent, then you're really competitive and people are starting

00:42:33.100 to look at the United States and going, you know what?

00:42:34.840 We should park our park our businesses over in the United States.

00:42:37.620 It's a 15 percent tax.

00:42:40.440 Yeah.

00:42:40.700 Well, with the relative in the U.S.

00:42:42.560 gets a bump to global business because of the relative stability.

00:42:46.220 There are and I know it doesn't feel stable here sometimes, but when you think about

00:42:50.240 overseas, you think about putting it in another country somewhere.

00:42:52.860 Where do you go?

00:42:53.600 Right.

00:42:53.780 What's your choice?

00:42:54.640 There might be one or two.

00:42:55.820 But generally speaking, we're still seen as the gold standard when it comes to stability.

00:43:00.620 Anybody think anybody think that Germany is more stable than we are?

00:43:03.760 Right.

00:43:04.780 No.

00:43:05.780 So if you can just be competitive, we have a lot of advantages.

00:43:10.240 Yes.

00:43:10.500 And so far with the corporate tax rate, we have not been competitive.

00:43:13.120 So a lot of companies want to stay away.

00:43:15.060 And, you know, there's other things to fight there because of higher wages.

00:43:18.580 And there's a lot.

00:43:19.860 Yeah.

00:43:20.020 There's a lot of built in costs.

00:43:21.140 Safety standards.

00:43:21.780 Everything.

00:43:22.260 But a lot of it's good, too.

00:43:23.640 There's a lot of benefits to some of that stuff.

00:43:25.560 So that's a big one.

00:43:26.420 And now this would make us have a competitive rate globally so that other countries and

00:43:32.660 businesses that are creating new giant factories would consider potentially putting

00:43:36.780 them here.

00:43:37.260 I mean, the problem with factory factory is a bad example.

00:43:40.140 Factory work is over.

00:43:41.460 And one of the reasons.

00:43:43.040 Especially here.

00:43:43.480 Yeah.

00:43:43.860 One of the reasons why is robotics.

00:43:45.520 But the other and why Stu said, especially here, is there's no loyalty to factory work

00:43:51.360 now in America.

00:43:52.540 Nobody.

00:43:53.400 Everyone will look at a factory job as a stepping stone.

00:43:57.320 I'm going to take this factory job until I can get a real job.

00:43:59.820 And so the companies look at, for instance, Mexico, and they see people who are thrilled

00:44:07.160 to have that factory job.

00:44:09.100 And they'll take that factory job and they'll work there their whole life.

00:44:12.740 Oh, and Mexico.

00:44:13.660 Mexico, that's first world compared to a lot of it.

00:44:16.480 That's great.

00:44:16.880 They talked about this when they were talking about big tariffs on products coming from

00:44:20.780 China.

00:44:21.540 And the idea was, well, if you put tariffs from China, they're going to come back here.

00:44:24.360 They're not going to come back here.

00:44:25.380 They're going to go to Bangladesh where they can save 75% off of China.

00:44:31.320 China is high priced compared to Bangladesh.

00:44:33.520 So they can go there and save 75% off labor by going from China, or they can save 50% by

00:44:39.560 going to India.

00:44:41.040 So that is, it becomes impossible.

00:44:43.920 They'll always, they'll always be somebody who can undercut the United States by a gigantic

00:44:47.900 margin for those types of jobs.

00:44:49.460 However, we do need to be stable and intelligent.

00:44:53.300 That's what we needed.

00:44:54.200 And we're heading in the wrong direction on both of those.

00:44:58.080 The no 401k changes.

00:45:00.140 That was one of the things discussed.

00:45:01.300 So that not being in there is a positive.

00:45:04.160 The idea was that they were going to lower the amount you could put in your 401k, which

00:45:08.260 is a strange incentive, right?

00:45:09.740 I mean, why would you want people to save less for their retirement?

00:45:13.680 Because you want velocity of money.

00:45:15.480 Yeah.

00:45:15.620 I mean, there are reasons why people like it.

00:45:18.220 The other, but it's not in this bill.

00:45:20.220 So that's a, that's a positive.

00:45:21.780 A new family credit that expands the child tax credit to 1600.

00:45:27.940 It was a thousand.

00:45:29.300 So that would be a little bit more money if you have children.

00:45:31.660 State and local property tax deductions are capped at $10,000.

00:45:35.960 And they're also hitting mortgage deductions.

00:45:39.640 So if you're a homeowner, this is a big deal.

00:45:42.680 So if you have, if you're in a high tax state, if you're in New Jersey, for example, your tax

00:45:47.540 rate, you own a 300 square foot home and your taxes are $30,000 a year.

00:45:52.680 Uh, you can only deduct up to $10,000 of that, which is a big deal.

00:45:57.440 I mean, it's got, that's going to hit you.

00:45:58.980 Um, this is a real, this is a real problem.

00:46:01.440 This is going to be a problem, uh, for a lot of industries in the end because millennials

00:46:06.700 already don't want to buy their own home.

00:46:09.520 They don't like starter homes.

00:46:11.660 So construction of starter homes is going to disappear.

00:46:15.760 They don't like starter homes.

00:46:17.120 They would rather rent something and then buy the home that they want when they're going

00:46:21.980 to build their family.

00:46:22.640 When they really want it.

00:46:23.220 Yeah.

00:46:23.500 So when they really want it.

00:46:24.800 So, um, homeownership is already going down and, uh, you know, to add, oh, and by the

00:46:34.580 way, you don't have a tax incentive to buy a home.

00:46:38.380 That's going to hurt.

00:46:39.300 It is going to hurt.

00:46:39.780 Now, I think from an economic perspective, that's actually a good change.

00:46:44.580 I don't think that the government should be involved in telling you whether you should

00:46:47.180 own a rent and is what they do right now as a homeowner who doesn't really want to

00:46:51.640 be a homeowner.

00:46:52.820 Uh, I, you know, I, I think that's a bad set of incentives, what we've set up over

00:46:57.660 this time.

00:46:58.060 And it's what leads to things like housing collapses.

00:47:00.240 When you, but when you have a system where you can actually rent something and it's not

00:47:05.660 year to year, when you have options, that wouldn't be so bad.

00:47:09.860 I do think that, you know, that's part of the reason, right?

00:47:12.320 People buy houses.

00:47:13.440 So there aren't as many options.

00:47:14.720 Yes.

00:47:14.920 And this is going to make what I'm going to build on that a little bit more here with

00:47:18.320 this next one.

00:47:18.820 This is a big one and was not expected and reported in advance.

00:47:21.640 The new, uh, the new tax bill caps your mortgage into interest deduction at $500,000.

00:47:29.840 So now, so basically you can deduct your interest on your home.

00:47:33.920 I think it's up to currently a million dollars, um, which, you know, it gets everybody except

00:47:37.700 for really super high price homes.

00:47:39.180 Obviously, depending on where you live, $500,000 isn't necessarily a gigantic home.

00:47:45.500 Um, if you live in a, uh, in a, uh, expensive area in LA, New York, Connecticut, anywhere in

00:47:51.500 the Northeast.

00:47:52.260 I mean, there's a lot anywhere near anywhere, big suburbs, $500,000.

00:47:56.520 Now, if you have a house right now and you, uh, and you, uh, and it's a $600,000 house

00:48:01.140 and you're freaking out about this, uh, remember, first of all, your first 500,000, uh, you'd

00:48:05.680 be able to deduct second of all, this only applies to new homes.

00:48:09.660 Um, now I, I'm a little bit unsure at this point, whether it means new homes or newly

00:48:13.940 purchased homes.

00:48:15.140 So if you were to buy a, uh, a, a newly built home, um, it would definitely apply.

00:48:20.680 If you were to buy a home that someone else already lived in, I'm not a hundred percent

00:48:25.380 sure.

00:48:25.640 It's not clear by the initial release of the information, but it does say $500,000.

00:48:30.320 So that's, you know, a mortgage deduction of $500,000 is a big deal, uh, if you're a

00:48:36.480 homeowner.

00:48:37.380 Um, and so that, but how, if you already have something above that, you're grandfathered

00:48:41.820 in.

00:48:42.020 So that's a big part of this.

00:48:43.620 Uh, it is already hitting homebuilders stocks very hard.

00:48:48.420 It's not, not an initial, as soon as it was released, it was a, it was a big drop for

00:48:52.360 a lot of these homebuilders, which is not a huge surprise.

00:48:54.280 It's not good.

00:48:54.940 Um, uh, again, though, I, I think instruction is just, just it, uh, I shouldn't say

00:49:00.280 that look, everything is going to change.

00:49:03.140 Um, but I, I would like some stability in the chaos.

00:49:08.180 You know what I mean?

00:49:08.580 The government has to stop furthering the chaos home ownership and all of this stuff

00:49:15.960 is changing because of the demographics.

00:49:18.400 So that's going to cause chaos in the home construction business already.

00:49:24.760 The government has to stop changing rules and laws and taxes and everything else.

00:49:30.340 That's why corporate tax rate to see it locked in and not just for 10 years is really important

00:49:37.240 because you need to signal to the market that this country is stable knowing that instability

00:49:45.660 is coming just because of market forces.

00:49:49.140 Yeah.

00:49:49.660 And that's a, that's kind of a big deal.

00:49:51.380 Um, because it's not always what's wrong with the tax plan.

00:49:56.280 It's the instability of not knowing what's coming in the future.

00:49:58.700 Yes.

00:49:58.940 Um, in addition to that, we have the breakdown of the rates.

00:50:01.960 So, uh, it will go to the new tax rate would be 20% up to $90,000.

00:50:08.540 Then, uh, bind or single?

00:50:10.080 Uh, that is, I just clicked off of it.

00:50:13.900 You're gonna have to give me a second.

00:50:14.760 I think it's, I think it's couples.

00:50:18.020 Um, so a $90,000.

00:50:20.340 Over $90,000.

00:50:21.280 You hit the 20% bracket.

00:50:23.200 Uh, then, uh, at, uh, 260,000, you hit the 35% bracket.

00:50:29.000 That's kind of a new situation because that used to be, you're getting into the top rate

00:50:33.820 then.

00:50:34.300 So they basically move these, they kept these rates similar.

00:50:37.500 39.6 rate, we get the giant tax cut to the 39.6 rate, um, from 39.6 to 39.6.

00:50:45.420 The difference being that they're raising the level to get in there.

00:50:49.280 So before it was 400 and something thousand.

00:50:51.900 Now it's a million.

00:50:52.920 You have to earn over a million to get to that 39.6 rate.

00:50:55.700 The death tax, uh, is something we've talked about for a long time.

00:50:59.760 Uh, if they've gone back and forth, supposedly Susan Collins has said in the Senate, she won't

00:51:04.960 vote for it unless they keep the death tax.

00:51:07.900 Um, and again, they need basically every single Republican to vote for this.

00:51:11.480 So they only, they can lose two only.

00:51:13.880 Um, so Collins is important.

00:51:15.080 If you want to pass this thing in the Senate, she said that the house plan, however, does

00:51:18.600 not kill the death tax.

00:51:20.540 It, uh, doubles the exemption.

00:51:22.940 So you, uh, you can pass more of your money to your kids if you happen to have a lot of

00:51:27.040 money.

00:51:27.500 Um, and then it eventually kills it in 2024.

00:51:30.240 So it's, it, it does eventually go away, but it takes a while under this plan.

00:51:35.260 Um, I would expect that to die in the Senate because they're going to need Collins vote

00:51:39.340 and you know, they're probably going to put that in there if she really wants it.

00:51:43.080 Um, and again, that's your, we don't talk about this that often.

00:51:46.260 I think it's completely immoral, completely immoral.

00:51:50.520 The death tax.

00:51:51.320 However, it hits almost nobody.

00:51:53.660 It's, it's the, the, the actual amount is over $5 million.

00:51:56.700 So what the Democrats say is, well, millionaires, who cares?

00:51:59.620 Who cares if the millionaires can pass their kids, uh, pass their money onto their kids?

00:52:02.680 Well, you know what?

00:52:03.560 Uh, it's really not up to you to care or not care.

00:52:05.800 It's their money.

00:52:06.520 And here's why this is so ridiculous.

00:52:08.400 Anybody who has that kind of money, they put it all in a trust that you're going to

00:52:13.060 find a way around that.

00:52:13.900 You find a way around it.

00:52:14.740 It's, it's, it's, it's, it's a stupid, uh, law that is meaningless to anybody who

00:52:22.740 actually has $10 million.

00:52:25.100 They're going to find a way to, you know, gift that to their kids over time.

00:52:31.660 Um, you know, or put it into a trust.

00:52:33.980 It's just stupid.

00:52:35.460 It is stupid, but it also it's, and it's completely immoral.

00:52:39.000 In my mind, it's immoral.

00:52:40.580 It's double taxing it.

00:52:41.600 It's money.

00:52:42.400 These people have paid money on these taxes already.

00:52:44.560 They were already taxed when they got the money and they're getting taxed again after

00:52:47.080 they're dead.

00:52:47.940 Yeah.

00:52:48.160 I mean, it's incomprehensible to me, but it is, uh, still something that is,

00:52:52.620 it's hard to get the general public upset about it because 99.9% of people are never

00:52:57.220 going to have to deal with it.

00:52:58.160 Yep.

00:52:58.360 It's just still wrong.

00:52:59.360 Yep.

00:52:59.660 Um, the child tax credit, I think I mentioned 1000 to 1600, the local property thing we talked

00:53:05.360 about, and here it is again, uh, 25%, uh, uh, at $90,000, 45,000 for individuals, uh, 35%

00:53:12.720 bracket kicks in at 260,000 for couples, 200,000 for individuals and 39.6 kicks in for a million

00:53:19.460 dollars for couples, 500,000 for individuals.

00:53:21.500 What's below the 20, uh, nothing.

00:53:25.240 I don't have that detail at the moment.

00:53:27.700 I can get it here.

00:53:28.760 So you're making less than 45,000.

00:53:33.700 You don't pay any taxes.

00:53:36.720 Again, I would not assume that from, uh, what I know there are five, there are four brackets

00:53:41.840 they're going to, and they're keeping supposedly the 39.6.

00:53:44.920 Um, uh, but there was always the talk about that fourth bracket being above that, whether

00:53:50.920 that happens in the Senate, we don't know.

00:53:52.820 Uh, yeah, that was the fourth bracket above.

00:53:55.560 Yeah.

00:53:55.660 Because this was a big Steve Bannon proposal.

00:53:57.520 If, if, if you're, if you're a fan of Ben and you might not realize that he had proposed

00:54:02.040 raising taxes, um, and at like $5 million and him raising it to 45% or something.

00:54:09.240 And basically it was a, a way to say, say, wait, look, we were going after the rich.

00:54:14.880 We swear.

00:54:15.460 I'm raising the tax on myself.

00:54:16.520 Right.

00:54:16.840 Exactly.

00:54:17.120 If you think Donald Trump, it doesn't have the attorneys to figure out how to make sure

00:54:21.980 that he doesn't fall into that bracket and pay him some other way.

00:54:26.240 Uh, you're crazy.

00:54:27.800 It's just a shell game.

00:54:29.360 It's, it's stupid.

00:54:30.820 It's stupid.

00:54:31.540 So you look at this and you say, well, is this, is this what I want out of all Republican

00:54:37.140 control of all three branches of government?

00:54:38.620 The answer to that is absolutely not.

00:54:40.140 It's a completely tentative plan.

00:54:42.680 It is, it's, it's a weak effort.

00:54:45.360 That being said, would it be a slight improvement for most people?

00:54:49.120 Yeah.

00:54:49.960 So, I mean, I, I don't, I don't think it's a horrible idea.

00:54:52.620 I just, I, you wish you could have done a lot better than this.

00:54:54.920 The only thing that is a game changer, and I would have liked to see it go down more.

00:54:58.420 The only thing that is a game changer is the corporate income tax, the corporate income

00:55:02.980 tax, a big one, uh, going to 20% makes us, uh, viable as a candidate globally.

00:55:09.800 Uh, and that can really spur the economy.

00:55:14.100 The rest of it, you know, it, it will impact some people.

00:55:18.480 Um, but the, the corporate tax could actually spur the economy.

00:55:28.420 Hey, are you tired of looking out through your windows through crooked, busted blinds?

00:55:35.620 They're pretty ugly.

00:55:37.120 You can email blinds.com and somebody will, um, reply right back.

00:57:03.360 Glenn Beck.

00:57:04.580 Glenn Beck.

00:57:13.800 Oh my gosh.

00:57:16.180 This is, this is stunning.

00:57:18.720 Nearly half of all American millennials, 44% would rather live in a socialist country over

00:57:25.940 a capitalist country.

00:57:27.880 44%.

00:57:29.640 71% of millennial survey, uh, could properly identify what communism is and often conflated

00:57:39.240 the two economic systems.

00:57:41.080 Now it's ignorance.

00:57:42.780 That is the biggest problem.

00:57:44.900 16% of millennials could actually accurately define what socialism is.

00:57:51.480 I want to talk to you about this because there are two other findings in this survey that

00:57:57.800 are truly terrifying next Glenn Beck.

00:58:10.700 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:58:14.600 We're doing a special all this week, uh, on, um, the socialism and it wraps up today with,

00:58:23.340 uh, almost the whole show just being on socialism.

00:58:26.980 And we take on, uh, the biggest lie of socialism and that is free education.

00:58:32.880 Sweden has free education.

00:58:35.060 No, no.

00:58:36.240 Actually, when you do your homework, it's amazing what you find.

00:58:41.360 It's beyond not free education.

00:58:44.780 It is.

00:58:45.740 Was it stunning?

00:58:46.440 Did you know this too?

00:58:47.280 What we found out about education in Sweden?

00:58:50.600 No, I, no idea.

00:58:52.460 No idea.

00:58:54.020 And there's a reason why no one talks about it, but we should, um, it is a total and complete

00:59:02.460 lie.

00:59:04.180 And, uh, we'll show that to you tonight, uh, on, uh, the blaze TV and, and all four of these,

00:59:11.440 uh, segments we've done a whole week are available at, uh, the blaze.com.

00:59:16.660 Um, and, uh, and share them and, and, and share them with your family.

00:59:21.760 And here's why nearly half of American millennials, 44% would rather live in a socialist country

00:59:29.480 than a capitalist one.

00:59:30.960 Here it is.

00:59:32.200 The millennials capitalist 42.

00:59:35.740 I'd like to live in a capitalist country, 42% socialist 44%.

00:59:41.860 Here's where it gets scary.

00:59:44.500 Millennials 7% of millennials say I'd rather live in a communist country and 7% of the

00:59:52.560 millennials say they'd rather live in a fascist country.

00:59:57.420 Jeez.

00:59:58.540 It gets worse.

01:00:00.480 23%.

01:00:01.600 So almost a quarter, 23% of those 21 to 29 years old stay.

01:00:08.960 Joseph Stalin was a hero.

01:00:14.140 25% say that one of the biggest killers, murderers of the 20th century, bigger than Hitler was a

01:00:27.980 hero.

01:00:31.020 Beyond that, an equal number of 20 somethings describe North Korea's Kim Jong-un.

01:00:37.400 Also as a hero.

01:00:43.360 Millennials give conflicting answers about free speech.

01:00:46.160 71% say it ought to be protected.

01:00:48.300 An alarming 48% say it should be limited on social media.

01:00:51.640 45% say it should be limited on college campuses.

01:00:54.080 So it doesn't offend anyone.

01:00:55.500 Oh my gosh.

01:00:57.740 Okay.

01:00:58.320 Now here's some good news.

01:01:00.260 Here's some good news.

01:01:01.040 We lost a generation.

01:01:04.180 We lost the millennials because we weren't paying attention.

01:01:08.100 Listen to this matures.

01:01:10.800 So anybody who was alive during World War II matures, 78% want to live in a capitalist country.

01:01:19.060 78%, 78%, followed by baby boomers, 66%.

01:01:24.020 Gen Xers, 57%.

01:01:27.720 Millennials, 42%.

01:01:30.520 Notice the trend?

01:01:31.520 78, 66, 57, 42% of millennials say they want to live in a capitalist country.

01:01:37.620 The generation following them, or do you think this one is?

01:01:41.980 Generation Z, 78, 66, 57, 42, 0.

01:01:49.480 67% want to live in a capitalist country.

01:01:53.920 So more than not only millennials, but also generation X.

01:01:56.860 More than baby boomers.

01:01:59.220 Wow.

01:02:00.340 That's really positive.

01:02:01.680 That's really positive.

01:02:02.760 To me, what that says is, this is the Tea Party generation.

01:02:10.000 This is the generation that has woken up because what they're seeing now, what they're growing up with, how we're raising them.

01:02:20.860 They are seeing and they are learning, hopefully, they are learning what these things are because we started to teach them.

01:02:31.040 But we have to teach them completely.

01:02:34.820 We have to teach them the worst about our country.

01:02:38.660 They have to hear it from us.

01:02:41.460 They have to hear the worst of our country and the worst things about capitalism.

01:02:47.560 Because you know they're going to hear it when they get outside.

01:02:51.760 And so you need to teach them the worst things about our country and then the worst things about socialism and the worst things about communism.

01:02:59.680 And if there's any positive on socialism or communism, you should talk about it.

01:03:07.560 And you need to talk about all the good things that this country has done.

01:03:11.960 But the problem is, we just tell, it's like our faith.

01:03:18.440 We expect our kids that we're going to raise them and we're going to tell them all of these great things about Jesus and religion.

01:03:27.600 And then they're going to go to college and they're going to hold fast.

01:03:31.320 Well, they might.

01:03:32.680 If we've done our job, they might.

01:03:34.680 But I know a lot of parents who have done their job and their kids go to school and they say, nope.

01:03:41.060 Because they're hearing for the very first time concepts that they had not heard before.

01:03:48.700 You need to teach your children the other side in a safe environment so they hear the other side.

01:03:56.960 And they understand, okay, all right, so that's what people are going to say, yeah.

01:04:01.900 And why is that wrong?

01:04:03.600 And really teach them.

01:04:06.080 It's the only way.

01:04:08.800 We're trying to do that now with my TV show at 5 o'clock.

01:04:12.040 I've tried to return back to the only thing that I think I'm good at and that's teaching at a blackboard.

01:04:17.640 And so we are teaching socialism all this week.

01:04:20.260 Today, you don't want to miss it at 5 o'clock.

01:04:22.960 If you're not a member, please become a member.

01:04:24.860 However, we will make these available for free in hopefully 30 to 60 days.

01:04:31.600 I have to check contracts and see when we can.

01:04:35.560 But I'm going to make them available as soon as I can.

01:04:37.960 So they'll be on YouTube so you can share them.

01:04:41.040 But instead of like Prager University, they go and they raise money to be able to make those.

01:04:46.780 And those videos are about $50,000 a piece.

01:04:49.420 And they're very good.

01:04:50.240 But that three minutes is $50,000.

01:04:52.820 We use this money that you are subscribing.

01:04:58.880 And we are going to start making those kinds of classes.

01:05:02.520 In a couple of weeks, we're going to do something on Antifa.

01:05:05.120 You will learn everything you need to know about Antifa.

01:05:07.680 We are going to do things on each amendment of the Bill of Rights.

01:05:12.300 So you can truly understand the Bill of Rights and what your rights are and why they came to be, why they're important, why you can't say, oh, well, free speech, but it needs to be limited over here.

01:05:25.820 No, no, no, no.

01:05:27.480 And why?

01:05:29.440 And we're teaching those every day at 5 o'clock only on TheBlaze.com slash TV.

01:05:33.800 Yeah, that's going to be really, I think, interesting.

01:05:38.180 And I think we'd definitely like to get your feedback on other ideas you have for these week-long series.

01:05:46.320 We've already had a lot of really good suggestions from the audience.

01:05:50.340 But if you go to the, you know, Twitter is a good place to go, at World of Stew, at Glenn Beck, or on the Facebook pages and put it in the comments.

01:05:59.100 Because there's always like, I mean, Antifa was suggested by a listener of this show and just said, hey, you know, I would love to know what's not only just what you see in like an occasional video where they're punching a white supremacist.

01:06:12.300 What's the philosophy that leads to that?

01:06:14.220 What's the history that's built to that moment?

01:06:15.940 And how are they manipulating that history and manipulating young people to get involved in it?

01:06:20.800 That's all included in this week.

01:06:22.700 Yeah.

01:06:23.020 And it's kind of a really interesting look.

01:06:24.920 So if you have one of those weird topics that you hear a lot and you're a little bit confused about or you think a lot of people around you are confused about the real history of it, that's the sort of topic we're looking for.

01:06:35.940 And so, you know, we're also making this so you can share it with, you know, the family members that, you know, don't think like we do.

01:06:43.960 I do not come at this, for instance, with even with Antifa.

01:06:49.380 I'm coming at this with the angle of, look, I want to be anti-fascist.

01:06:54.340 It's good to be anti-fascist, right?

01:06:56.920 So why is Antifa?

01:06:58.880 Why would anybody be against Antifa?

01:07:00.560 And we break it down and we show you the history and we show you the connections on socialism.

01:07:07.720 You know, I'm very frank.

01:07:10.680 Capitalism seems mean.

01:07:12.200 It really does.

01:07:14.080 It seems to play into greed and seems mean when it's compared to something that says, hey, why don't we just share?

01:07:21.860 Why don't we just why don't we just take care of people that are starving, that are that are hungry, that don't have health care?

01:07:28.160 You have enough.

01:07:29.780 It seems like the right thing to do in your heart.

01:07:34.780 So why does it fall apart?

01:07:37.000 Yeah.

01:07:37.540 And we didn't show you just the Stalins and the Maus.

01:07:40.960 We showed you the utopian socialist, including our pilgrims, and we showed you why it didn't work.

01:07:50.420 And you can have the best of intentions, but it still doesn't work because it goes against basic human nature.

01:07:58.180 And we explain that.

01:07:59.100 And then tonight we've saved the best, I think, the best for last, because it's the argument that everybody who's a millennial is saying, well, it's free, you know, free, free education.

01:08:09.060 We need free education.

01:08:11.100 And Sweden does it.

01:08:12.600 Why can't we?

01:08:13.660 Oh, because Sweden doesn't actually do that.

01:08:17.140 And we'll prove it to you, show you what it actually is in Sweden.

01:08:24.200 Socialism, the big lie.

01:08:26.300 Tonight, 5 o'clock, only on the Blaze TV.

01:08:32.600 By the way, we have to get to Bitcoin.

01:08:35.520 Yesterday, we told you put $100 in it.

01:08:38.100 Just put $100 in it.

01:08:39.680 You would have made $10 if you put $100 in it yesterday.

01:08:43.940 Just yesterday.

01:08:44.540 It's almost, what is it, $71 or $73?

01:08:47.000 It was up to $7,300.

01:08:48.660 Yeah, about $71 right now.

01:08:50.080 $71.

01:08:51.660 Yesterday, was it $60?

01:08:54.300 $64, $63, something like that, when we were talking about it.

01:08:56.860 Yeah, we were talking, I think it was $63 when we were talking about it yesterday.

01:09:01.200 It's over $7,000 today.

01:09:03.380 Yeah, the good thing about it, too, is that it's never going to end, and it's always going to go up.

01:09:06.920 Always.

01:09:07.160 Straight up in a giant, it's just an incredible front side of the mountain.

01:09:10.920 None of that is true.

01:09:12.140 No.

01:09:12.440 None of that is true.

01:09:13.320 It could end at any moment, but it is an interesting ride.

01:09:15.400 Right.

01:09:15.720 And we want to talk about that.

01:09:16.980 I also want you to understand, there is a huge difference between Bitcoin and gold.

01:09:24.160 And let me explain.

01:09:26.040 This is sponsored by Goldline.

01:09:27.660 Let me explain that what Stu just said is so critical.

01:09:33.320 This could go up.

01:09:34.980 And this is why I say put $100 in it.

01:09:37.400 I don't say put 10.

01:09:38.420 I believe you should put 10% into gold.

01:09:40.860 I have 10% in gold because I believe that is rock solid stability.

01:09:47.000 It is the last line of defense for a world that has gone completely unhinged.

01:09:53.080 I'm telling you at the same time, don't spend more than you would spend on a weekend.

01:09:59.400 Don't spend anything on Bitcoin that you are not really ready just to walk away from.

01:10:05.280 Because there's a chance it goes to zero.

01:10:09.240 Gold will never go to zero.

01:10:12.400 Never.

01:10:13.380 It has intrinsic value.

01:10:15.460 And it also has a history of about 10,000 years.

01:10:20.920 Just significantly longer than Bitcoin.

01:10:24.120 Yes.

01:10:25.320 Which is more like six years.

01:10:26.740 Yes.

01:10:26.980 Now, people will say, well, yeah, but gold isn't going up.

01:10:31.680 Yeah.

01:10:32.400 Yeah.

01:10:32.620 That's weird, isn't it?

01:10:34.900 It's really weird.

01:10:35.920 And there's lots of reasons for it not going up.

01:10:38.520 But all of it revolves around manipulation from the global markets or of the global markets,

01:10:46.040 mainly from people who have reason like fake fiat money to keep that price down.

01:10:53.420 Gold is the the hedge against inflation, hyperinflation.

01:11:00.440 It is durable.

01:11:01.920 It is easy to transport.

01:11:03.560 It looks the same everywhere you go.

01:11:05.620 It's easy to weigh and to grade.

01:11:08.800 It is an insurance against financial calamity.

01:11:12.860 And there is a good shot we head for that.

01:11:16.580 Right now, Goldline is offering free gift cards on qualified purchases and one year of free storage

01:11:23.400 on IRA purchases.

01:11:24.680 If you don't have 10% of your holdings in precious metals, I'm telling you, I strongly recommend

01:11:35.920 because it is the backstop of insanity.

01:11:40.780 They also give you a free American flag lapel pin just for calling to learn more.

01:11:44.520 This is your chance to show pride in America and be there at the end with something to help

01:11:54.240 rebuild America.

01:11:55.800 Make sure you read their important risk information.

01:12:06.800 Glenn Beck.

01:12:07.860 Glenn Beck.

01:12:18.880 Welcome to the program.

01:12:22.760 So, we're not sure.

01:12:26.040 There's a couple of things I want to talk to you about.

01:12:27.520 First of all, Trump picked Jerome Powell as the next Federal Reserve governor.

01:12:34.720 Um, so, it looks like what's-her-face is beating it.

01:12:41.840 Yellen.

01:12:42.880 Mm-hmm.

01:12:43.460 Which is good.

01:12:44.280 Mm-hmm.

01:12:44.820 Um.

01:12:45.260 He likes Yellen, though.

01:12:46.020 He said he loves Yellen.

01:12:47.020 Loves Janet Yellen.

01:12:48.060 Yeah.

01:12:48.400 Well.

01:12:48.600 Uh, and Deutsche Bank, uh, has asked, uh, has written a paper.

01:12:57.460 One of their financial, uh, analysts, um, has published a report, uh, that I don't think

01:13:05.500 you would have seen even two years ago.

01:13:09.620 Uh, and he asks, is this the beginning of the end of fiat money?

01:13:17.240 Now, this is, this is a bank.

01:13:19.680 This is Deutsche Bank saying, hey, this is, we, we may be in the end of fiat money here.

01:13:28.100 Uh, what are we going to do about it?

01:13:30.360 Uh, for a bank to release that, I think, especially Deutsche Bank, I think that's a significant,

01:13:37.200 uh, development.

01:13:39.840 Maybe it's just me.

01:13:42.680 Also, we don't know if this is true or not.

01:13:45.460 Uh, this has been reported, uh, that, um, Die Welt, which is a German magazine, uh, or

01:13:55.880 a Finnish tech magazine, I think, uh, say that, that, uh, Amazon is preparing to accept

01:14:04.200 Bitcoin as a form of payment.

01:14:07.280 Uh, CoinDesk reported that, uh, Amazon has now registered three cryptocurrency related web

01:14:14.300 domains, uh, which we don't really know anything.

01:14:20.180 I mean, it's very vague, but it's playing into the speculation that Amazon is, um, going

01:14:27.960 to start taking Bitcoin.

01:14:29.100 If they do, that is a major development, uh, in the life of Bitcoin.

01:14:34.720 And as we said, uh, yesterday, uh, it was 6,500 and today it's 73.

01:14:41.060 This is not something that I look at as an insurance policy.

01:14:45.160 I look at this as one of those crazy bets.

01:14:48.440 Uh, and that's why I've said, don't, don't, don't, you know, if you don't have a lot of

01:14:51.660 money, put a hundred dollars in it and that's it.

01:14:53.860 And we've got a lot of people asking yesterday, how do I put a hundred dollars into Bitcoin?

01:15:01.260 Um, we'll tell you next hour.

01:15:04.780 Stand by.

01:15:05.100 Glenn Beck.

01:15:19.000 Love.

01:15:20.600 Courage.

01:15:22.120 Truth.

01:15:23.320 Glenn Beck.

01:15:24.000 It had been decades since Ariel and his high school friends got together to catch up.

01:15:29.520 30th anniversary of the graduation was approaching and, uh, and Ariel came up with a plan.

01:15:35.980 He's a successful steel mill owner in Argentina and Ariel had, um, uh, some money saved away

01:15:42.540 for once in a lifetime holiday.

01:15:44.500 And he decided I'm going to pay for all of my former classmates travel to New York.

01:15:50.540 And we're going to celebrate in style group of nine friends, having a blast doing touristy

01:15:56.780 things, riding bikes in downtown Manhattan.

01:15:59.080 And when the unimaginable happened, a terrorist held bent on murdering, whoever he could rammed

01:16:07.860 his truck into the bikers.

01:16:11.400 Five of these friends were killed.

01:16:14.400 In addition to the five friends from Argentina, three others lost their lives on Tuesday.

01:16:22.200 Nicholas Cleaves was a 23 year old software developer who had just recently started his

01:16:27.440 first job out of school.

01:16:29.420 The world was at his feet.

01:16:31.520 Darren Drake, 32 year old project manager for Moody's analytics.

01:16:36.360 His parents knew something was wrong when they couldn't reach him hours after the attack.

01:16:41.620 They frantically drove to Bellevue hospital where they were confronted with their worst

01:16:45.560 fears.

01:16:47.240 And to cat 31 year old from Belgium.

01:16:51.080 She was just vacationing in New York with her mother and two sisters.

01:16:54.740 Her three month old and three year old sons are now motherless.

01:16:59.420 Because of one man's selfish and delusional fantasies, these eight people are dead.

01:17:10.300 Their families are suffering an unthinkable pain.

01:17:14.060 And the scary thing is this attacker's fantasies shared by thousands and thousands of others.

01:17:21.320 He's not alone.

01:17:23.940 It will happen again.

01:17:25.500 When will we stop arguing with each other and start naming this hatred by its real name?

01:17:38.620 Islamic terrorism.

01:17:42.060 It's the first step to stopping it.

01:17:45.320 It's Thursday, November 2nd.

01:17:56.000 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:17:59.820 Can we just do something fun for a minute?

01:18:03.760 When Osama bin Laden wasn't planning terrorist attacks,

01:18:08.140 he apparently was watching YouTube videos like Charlie bit my finger.

01:18:13.020 Do you remember that?

01:18:14.280 Yeah.

01:18:14.540 Charlie bit my finger.

01:18:16.760 That was one of the many videos that were found in Osama bin Laden's collection when they stormed his compound.

01:18:26.320 I mean, how bizarre.

01:18:29.440 If you're Charlie,

01:18:31.500 you will forever know that your family little video

01:18:36.140 ended up in the hands of Osama bin Laden and you made him laugh.

01:18:42.040 Davey's car said when contacted at his home in London by phone,

01:18:50.080 he said,

01:18:50.400 I don't even know how to react.

01:18:51.880 It's kind of,

01:18:52.500 it's kind of hard to take in.

01:18:54.760 You can never really tell.

01:18:56.260 He said,

01:18:56.700 quote,

01:18:57.000 who has a lighter side.

01:18:59.760 It's hard to imagine.

01:19:00.820 He's planning terrible things one minute and then laughing with his family over my family in the next.

01:19:05.760 Charlie,

01:19:08.380 by the way,

01:19:08.820 is now 11.

01:19:13.300 Try this one on.

01:19:15.980 This is a,

01:19:16.720 this is reading out of that story before you go to the next one.

01:19:18.560 He also had a number of crochet tutorials.

01:19:23.180 Osama bin Laden was crocheting.

01:19:28.300 The newly declassified CIA documents declassified in the Kennedy assassination.

01:19:35.620 There is one intelligence mess memo that provides details from an informant who told the CIA agent codenamed Keim Lodi three that Hitler was alive and survived World War two.

01:19:54.520 The informant who also happened to be the agent's friends added that Philip Citron,

01:20:01.500 a former German SS agent appeared to be in touch with the Fuhrer in the city of Tunja in Columbia's of in Columbia's Bo Boyaka department.

01:20:15.260 According to the memo,

01:20:16.740 Citron said that the Germans residing in Tunja followed Hitler with an idol tree of the Nazi pass,

01:20:23.940 addressing him as their fewer and affording him the Nazi salute and storm trooper adulation memo also shows a picture of Adolf strittle mayor signaling that Hitler could have changed his last name.

01:20:39.060 Did you see the picture?

01:20:40.640 No.

01:20:41.320 Oh,

01:20:41.520 you didn't know.

01:20:42.300 Let's see if I have it here.

01:20:43.160 I don't think I have it.

01:20:45.240 Somebody in the control room.

01:20:46.400 See if you can find the picture of this.

01:20:49.200 It is a picture that shows Citron the the the SS officer sitting next to the alleged Hitler who was said to have committed suicide in the Berlin bunker in 1945.

01:21:05.580 Citron also stated Hitler left Columbia for Argentina around January 1955.

01:21:12.900 CIA memos make it clear the agency was skeptical of the reports but had to take them seriously.

01:21:17.580 Neither chimed Lodi three nor his station is in a position to give an intelligent evaluation of the information and it is being forward as of possible interest.

01:21:27.120 Read another page of the memo dated 1955.

01:21:32.320 Argentine writer author of after Hitler steps reconstructed Hitler's alleged trip across South America, including a month long stay in Columbia.

01:21:41.860 But the book has been rejected by historians because it lacked evidence.

01:21:46.580 Hitler's face fate has been subject to widespread speculation.

01:21:50.540 According to CNN in 2009, Soviet KGB agents burned Hitler's remains in 1970 and then threw them into a river based on orders by then Soviet chief Yuri Andropov.

01:22:04.620 According to the report, the bodies of Hitler, his companion and Goebbels were discovered by the Soviet army in May 1945.

01:22:12.020 But such accounts sparked more doubts when the University of Connecticut in 2009 analyzed a piece of skull that Russia claimed belonged to Hitler.

01:22:22.000 The scientists confirmed that it came from a 20 to 40 year old woman and not Adolf Hitler.

01:22:29.120 What do you think of that?

01:22:32.120 I mean, I tend to believe that he killed himself in the bunker.

01:22:35.020 There's a, you know, there's a good amount of supporting evidence to that.

01:22:38.800 But I mean, I see the picture.

01:22:41.120 Yeah, I'm looking at the picture now.

01:22:42.080 It's on the blaze.com.

01:22:42.920 You can check it out up there.

01:22:44.980 I mean, it obviously it looks like him, although it's a, you know, been photocopied about 600 times.

01:22:51.560 And it's, you know, you can't, it looks also could be a Hitler impersonator, right?

01:22:56.060 It's not like it's a clear cut picture, but I mean, it does, it does resemble him.

01:23:02.260 Certainly you'd think though, if Hitler's alive in Columbia in the, in the fifties and sixties, he's probably changing the mustache, right?

01:23:09.320 That would probably be the first one.

01:23:11.380 Yeah.

01:23:11.520 That's probably the first thing to go.

01:23:12.900 Yeah.

01:23:15.700 That and probably the armband.

01:23:17.680 Yeah.

01:23:18.140 Yeah.

01:23:18.360 Yeah.

01:23:18.900 Probably those two things.

01:23:21.560 So I found a story that I think is really interesting of somebody going, uh, where most people won't go.

01:23:32.780 Let me read this story to you.

01:23:34.220 Friday, October 20th, 2017.

01:23:36.380 While checking my Twitter feed, I came across, across a tweet posted by the Associated Press.

01:23:41.120 The AP tweet story reads as follows.

01:23:43.300 Breaking appeals court blocks teen held in Texas facility from obtaining an abortion for now.

01:23:48.880 I had some basic knowledge of what, uh, the tweet was referring to.

01:23:52.700 And I posted a simple response and I quote, good, uh, that was the entirety of my initial response to the AP tweet.

01:24:01.680 The reason for my responses will be diverged, uh, would divulge shortly moments after my tweet.

01:24:07.840 Um, I began to receive an onslaught of hatred.

01:24:10.840 The first response to my good tweet was received for 24 PM, a full 60 seconds after my initial tweet.

01:24:17.900 The tweet was simple and understandable.

01:24:20.260 Uh, it read as follows.

01:24:22.760 Why my response once again was shortened to the point because I would rather have a child live than die.

01:24:28.720 This is where things quickly devolved into chaos.

01:24:31.600 What follows is a series of tweets from multiple individuals, uh, but it's pretty vulgar, blah, blah, blah.

01:24:38.040 Uh, it really hammers him.

01:24:41.140 I mean, it just goes on just hammering this guy over and over and over again.

01:24:45.300 Um, starts to compare, um, feces with, you know, what are you going to have a funeral?

01:24:51.880 I hope you play taps every time you flush the toilet.

01:24:54.480 Comparing, uh, uh, an abortion or child with feces.

01:25:01.500 Um, so, uh, he says, I apologize for the vulgarity of what you just read, but a small sample of the responses, uh, I received just to my tweet of good.

01:25:12.640 He decided to change tactics and, uh, we have him on the phone with us now.

01:25:18.840 Vincent or Vincent Vincent.

01:25:22.060 Are you there?

01:25:22.780 Good.

01:25:23.240 How are you?

01:25:23.840 How are you doing?

01:25:24.480 Good.

01:25:25.080 You're a former cop and, uh, investigator for the state of Texas.

01:25:29.680 And, um, you were taken aback by the vulgarity of the tweets.

01:25:36.260 And what did you decide to do?

01:25:40.600 Well, I decided, you know, I did a little bit of, tried to do some humorous stuff, uh, as I try to do on Twitter.

01:25:47.220 But, uh, basically what I, what I wanted to do was to, to reach a group of people, namely people that thought like me.

01:25:54.480 And, uh, uh, to try to motivate people to actually take action and not just talk.

01:25:59.400 Cause we do a lot of talking and we don't do a lot of action.

01:26:01.680 I wanted people to, uh, to take steps and, and do something about it.

01:26:05.780 And so somebody wrote, um, to you and said, uh, anyone facing a forcing this teen into one wanted pregnancy should be prepared to support the child themselves.

01:26:18.060 Otherwise, it's not their business.

01:26:20.580 And you tweeted, we'll adopt the baby.

01:26:24.920 No questions asked and pay for medical bills.

01:26:28.460 Good response.

01:26:29.420 What happened then?

01:26:31.600 So, uh, basically, uh, I got further challenged on that.

01:26:36.400 You know, you're not really going to do it.

01:26:37.600 So I reached out to the ACLU, to the ACLU of Texas, uh, via Twitter, via Facebook messenger and via email, uh, offering, uh, for my wife and I and our family to adopt a child.

01:26:50.500 Uh, and I, you know, uh, posted proof of, of such, uh, there in one of the Twitter responses.

01:26:57.940 And, and you were legitimately serious about this.

01:27:02.220 You, without any other information, you're willing to adopt this child if they'll just allow it to be born.

01:27:09.600 Correct.

01:27:10.360 Uh, my wife and I are actually currently, we're actually having our final interview of our home study this afternoon.

01:27:15.660 Uh, we're in going through the adoption process right now.

01:27:19.020 So it would have just been a shortcut for you, really?

01:27:22.580 Absolutely.

01:27:23.280 Yeah.

01:27:24.260 Um, uh, congratulations on that, by the way.

01:27:27.220 Um, my son is adopted and there's just no greater joy, um, than the day you, you take your, your son or daughter home.

01:27:35.880 Uh, so congratulations on that.

01:27:37.720 What has been the response?

01:27:39.100 Did you hear back from anyone?

01:27:41.260 Uh, I did hear back pretty quickly on a Facebook messenger from the ACLU and their initial response was, uh, uh, it'll take too long.

01:27:50.540 Uh, it'll take too long.

01:27:53.340 Yeah.

01:27:53.580 Yeah.

01:27:53.700 It's a long, it's a long process.

01:27:55.460 Like we're not familiar with that.

01:27:56.500 We've been going through it for a year, uh, you know, getting the approval for adoption, but, uh, actually postmortem just two days ago, actually, I got an email back from, um, somebody from the ACLU.

01:28:07.240 Uh, and it was basically just saying that, uh, we, uh, we can't divulge any information to you.

01:28:14.440 It's all confidential, even though I only requested contact with the attorneys of Jane Doe.

01:28:19.660 Um, Vince, so what does that tell you about, um, anybody's seriousness about the argument of, well, you, then you should adopt the child.

01:28:29.680 Uh, that, that it's not serious at all.

01:28:34.100 It's funny because, uh, one of the other responses when I said that we were going through adoption was, why would you only want to adopt one or two?

01:28:41.380 There's thousands of kids that need, need a home.

01:28:44.860 Well, I can't take care of thousands of kids.

01:28:47.020 Yeah.

01:28:47.940 I can only take care of a couple more.

01:28:49.540 And I, I, there's no serious about it.

01:28:51.460 I will tell you, um, Vince, as you know, as you're going through it, it is such an arduous process, um, to adopt, especially here in the United States.

01:29:00.840 You're lucky you're in Texas.

01:29:02.740 Um, Rafe was, uh, Texas born as well.

01:29:05.680 And the adoption papers are, are terrifying for the, uh, birth mother because they are, uh, they're very, very clear.

01:29:14.420 Um, you're never going to, you're never going to see this child, uh, again, uh, and you have nothing to do with this child.

01:29:21.760 You are no longer have any rights at all.

01:29:24.740 And they make it very clear, but in a lot of States, you just don't know.

01:29:29.000 So you adopt here in America and somebody can come and claim your child three years, five years after.

01:29:35.960 And it's terrifying.

01:29:39.840 Yes.

01:29:40.320 Vince, thank you so much for, uh, sharing that and, and, uh, good luck on your adoption.

01:29:46.240 Does it look like it's all going to come?

01:29:47.740 I mean, you don't have peculiar smells coming from anywhere in the house.

01:29:53.640 No, no, uh, flesh, uh, coated.

01:29:57.140 Blow up dolls.

01:29:58.420 Yeah.

01:30:00.180 Everything should be good to go.

01:30:01.860 Okay, good, good, good.

01:30:03.600 Vince, congratulations.

01:31:45.040 I trust.com.

01:31:49.000 Glenn back.

01:31:57.840 Now we have to take the beam out of our own eye first.

01:32:08.240 Um, so let me do something that's probably really not popular.

01:32:12.180 Um, I don't know if you saw the, um, uh, the story from Fox news about, uh, Jake Tapper and Allah Akbar, uh, where he said it's beautiful and, and they, you know, deemed it outrageous that he would say those things.

01:32:27.140 And then he took to Twitter and he's like, I can't tell the difference between info wars and Fox anymore.

01:32:32.060 You know, what, what, what, what are the lies here?

01:32:34.840 This was an info war story.

01:32:37.000 Fox picked it up.

01:32:38.840 Um, and it's total, it's total.

01:32:41.460 It's a total lie.

01:32:42.400 Yes.

01:32:42.780 He did say that Allah Akbar can be beautiful, meaning it can be beautiful.

01:32:49.580 I think even went in and said with weddings and things like that, it can also be terrifying.

01:32:55.280 Well, yeah, yeah.

01:32:58.120 Uh, I think the same thing could be said about, um, you know, just the name Jesus, uh, can be beautiful.

01:33:06.720 You know, the word God can be beautiful.

01:33:09.360 God hates whoever.

01:33:11.140 Yeah.

01:33:11.560 No, then, then it's ugly.

01:33:13.020 You could take the name in vain.

01:33:14.420 Yes.

01:33:15.100 Yes.

01:33:15.360 And so that seemed to be the only point he was making.

01:33:17.700 It was not making it, it was beautiful in the context of this terrorist attack.

01:33:21.480 Yeah.

01:33:21.900 That was not what he was saying.

01:33:23.160 And again, info wars picked it up.

01:33:25.940 And for some reason, Fox news picked up on the info war story and Jason Chaffetz said it on the air.

01:33:32.860 Uh, but Fox news did delete the tweet.

01:33:35.620 Jason Chaffetz did apologize for doing it.

01:33:38.380 Um, because you know, they eventually got the word that it was incorrect.

01:33:42.720 Right.

01:33:43.080 And we, we, when, you know, I don't know how we can be a people that really liked, uh, Jake Tapper.

01:33:50.500 And we all said, here's a guy who actually is trying to do the right thing.

01:33:55.040 And he holds both sides, the feet to the fire.

01:33:57.820 And look what he did during the, he was the only guy or one of probably maybe five that actually stood in the media and fought against the Obama administration.

01:34:09.200 You're not supposed to like reporters.

01:34:12.740 You're supposed, they're supposed to ask the tough questions of both sides.

01:34:17.280 And he did for eight years.

01:34:19.040 One of the only that did for eight years.

01:34:20.880 The Obama administration hated, hated him.

01:34:23.840 They couldn't stand him.

01:34:24.900 Hated him.

01:34:25.860 That to me is a, is a, should be a badge of honor that he wears.

01:34:30.360 That both sides hate him.

01:34:32.600 That's good.

01:34:33.640 That tells me you're not playing favorites.

01:34:36.000 And how we've gone from a group of people that saw him as really a hero, a guy who, um, stood up.

01:34:44.480 And we said, at least I did.

01:34:46.020 He's a hero only because he's doing his job and nobody else seems to be doing his job.

01:34:51.380 Well, he's still doing his job.

01:34:54.860 Stop it.

01:34:56.160 Stop it.

01:34:57.040 If he does stuff that is, that is true, you know, and he goes on, if he really had said, you know, that's beautiful.

01:35:05.060 When he got out and said that over the bodies of the dead children, well, then it would be something that would be outrageous and we should talk about.

01:35:11.600 Yeah.

01:35:11.800 But that's not what he said.

01:35:13.640 And certainly, I, you know, I'm sure he wouldn't even say he's perfect.

01:35:17.100 There are times that I definitely disagree with some of his analysis.

01:35:20.080 Yeah.

01:35:20.420 But there are a lot of times he stands up, even in really uncomfortable times, uh, for what he believes is right.

01:35:26.080 And he's, he's, he's any, I will say this from the beginning.

01:35:27.880 He's always been really behind the military.

01:35:30.900 Uh, and you know, I, it serves credit for that.

01:35:33.620 I think he's fair.

01:35:34.420 I think he's fair.

01:35:35.340 Both sides hate him for a reason.

01:35:39.580 Glenn Beck.

01:35:40.580 You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

01:35:52.740 Well, I've saved this only because Pat is about to, uh, start on his, uh, thing and just to get him all excited.

01:36:00.600 Uh, we wanted to talk about, uh, uh, Bitcoin because we've all been talking about for how long since somebody sent us.

01:36:10.580 It says something from 2012, 2014, 2014, where we were talking about it and dumbly, you know, our, our stupidity was just so thick.

01:36:22.080 At the time we were saying, you know, you should really invest in Bitcoin.

01:36:25.380 None of us did.

01:36:26.660 None of us did.

01:36:28.620 I don't know if none of us is the right term.

01:36:31.100 I don't know if that's.

01:36:32.220 Stu did.

01:36:32.500 Stu invested at 300, right?

01:36:34.860 Uh, yeah.

01:36:35.920 Yeah.

01:36:36.300 Shut up.

01:36:36.880 You bought some at 300.

01:36:37.820 Shut up.

01:36:38.580 Well, you know.

01:36:39.080 Uh, so I invested at 1100, uh, and felt really skittish about it.

01:36:45.540 I was just like, oh man, $1,100.

01:36:47.740 And that's a lot.

01:36:49.140 It hit 73 today.

01:36:51.420 Yeah.

01:36:51.780 7,300.

01:36:52.660 That's unbelievable.

01:36:53.820 And you have to be clear on Bitcoin.

01:36:55.420 It wasn't just 73.

01:36:56.740 Oh yeah.

01:36:57.040 Yeah.

01:36:57.180 300.

01:36:57.700 Cause it could be $73 tomorrow.

01:36:59.960 Yeah.

01:37:00.140 There's no question about it.

01:37:01.020 And I guess if any of us were smart, we would have actually invested real money in it instead of like play.

01:37:05.500 Yeah.

01:37:05.940 Cause we knew, but who knows?

01:37:07.220 I mean, you never know what tomorrow brings with this stuff, but it's tomorrow.

01:37:10.900 It could be out of business.

01:37:11.940 I don't think it will be, but it could be out of business.

01:37:14.000 Who was the guy that we had on a few months ago?

01:37:15.560 And he said, it could be a million dollars a coin or it could be zero.

01:37:19.720 Yeah.

01:37:20.080 Um, and that's why you should own at least one, because if it's a million dollars a coin and

01:37:24.680 you bought in now, you're, you're, you've done really well.

01:37:28.380 You'd be up, you'd be up in that scenario.

01:37:30.080 Well, we just had a, we just had a big institutional investor guy on, uh, earlier, was it this week

01:37:34.940 or last week?

01:37:35.480 And he said, he predicted that it would be at 6,000, um, last spring.

01:37:43.300 And it was our, when we talked to him, it was like at 6,300 and, uh, he, and he said

01:37:50.020 he was predicting 6,000 by the year 2018.

01:37:53.420 And he explained why, you know, there's only 4 million investors in this worldwide now.

01:37:58.860 That's what I find to be incredible.

01:38:00.280 That's incredible.

01:38:01.000 4 million investors have over a hundred dollars of, of Bitcoin, you know?

01:38:07.100 So it's, they, there's a lot of accounts that have like 12 cents, you know what I mean?

01:38:10.920 But like, this is when he talks to a hundred dollars, which is, is by the way, one 70th

01:38:16.260 of a Bitcoin, one 70th.

01:38:18.260 So it's not a lot of money.

01:38:19.420 It's not a lot, uh, you know, a big chunk, but there's, yeah, I mean, there's only, but

01:38:24.320 you put a hundred dollars now in and it goes to, you know, uh, a million dollars.

01:38:29.340 You, you've made some real money because I've heard a lot of people say that, you know,

01:38:32.600 you're too late, but I mean, you're talking about less than one 10th of 1% of the population

01:38:37.760 has a hundred dollars in this.

01:38:39.380 So, I mean, and when you go to like $10,000, which is like, you know, like a big, you know,

01:38:44.620 that's two Bitcoins.

01:38:45.900 When you go to two Bitcoins, you're at like one one hundredth of a percent.

01:38:50.720 Um, so, and I think really the only thing that would stop you from getting into this

01:38:54.920 is if you hear that Pat got into it, because if Pat gets into it, it's going to zero almost

01:39:01.000 immediately.

01:39:01.680 So you have no intention of investing today, do you?

01:39:04.340 Uh, no, I'm thinking about it.

01:39:05.980 Oh, no, no, no.

01:39:06.520 I'm thinking about it.

01:39:07.440 Of course, I've been thinking about it since it was 1100.

01:39:10.140 So today is the day to continue to buy.

01:39:12.660 So listen, here's the thing we just want to say, because we got so much email on this

01:39:16.020 yesterday, the way to buy it.

01:39:17.440 I buy it, uh, through, uh, Zapo and I do it because it keeps it in a Swiss bank in the

01:39:24.600 mountain.

01:39:25.480 This was an American company.

01:39:26.620 They had it over in Silicon Valley.

01:39:28.500 They didn't like the way the United States was starting to, you know, just say, you

01:39:33.020 know what?

01:39:33.500 Hey, we can just take this.

01:39:35.120 And so they moved their vault into the side of a mountain in Switzerland.

01:39:39.700 And I like that because I have the, you know, the double whammy of I don't believe in the

01:39:44.420 currency, but I also don't believe in the government not taking the money.

01:39:48.380 Uh, and so it's harder to invest, uh, and there are different standards, uh, because

01:39:53.760 of that, but it's X-A-P-O.

01:39:56.420 Those are the people that I invest with.

01:39:58.100 I don't, we don't get any money for this, by the way.

01:40:00.040 Yeah.

01:40:00.400 Uh, and Stu, uh, you use Coinbase.

01:40:04.040 Coinbase.

01:40:04.420 And we should point out that none of us are experts at this at all.

01:40:07.520 You should do your own homework, your own research.

01:40:09.280 Like I, even when you're investing in this, this is all, you know, we don't know what we're

01:40:12.880 talking about on this as, as you know, I don't put anything in, you don't, you don't

01:40:16.660 want to lose.

01:40:17.320 Yeah.

01:40:17.460 And I, I, I, this is fun money.

01:40:19.040 Yeah.

01:40:19.300 I will say like both of the companies, Coinbase is, is one, it's, it's, uh, it's an American

01:40:24.080 company as well.

01:40:24.740 And it's backed by very large, uh, venture capital, Silicon Valley type.

01:40:31.900 So there's a lot of money behind it.

01:40:33.480 Um, really powerful people are, you know, run it and are, are behind it, which is one of the

01:40:38.200 reasons I liked it because I felt more stable, but I mean, I don't, you know, this is, this

01:40:42.280 is a new thing for, as I pointed out, it's less than one 10th of 1% of the world is involved

01:40:46.480 in this right now.

01:40:47.200 And so many people think it's, they're so late to it really so far.

01:40:50.440 You're not, I mean, you're still among the very first adopters.

01:40:54.460 If you were to get in now and who knows what's going to happen to it.

01:40:57.220 As Glenn has said many times, you should only use money that you like absolutely could lose

01:41:01.700 tomorrow and don't care about, but it's an interesting, it's an interesting thing.

01:41:05.320 If you have a few bucks, everyone in this audience should own a hundred dollars.

01:41:08.880 Again, we are not investment advisors and we cannot, I'm just saying, it's foolish.

01:41:14.040 It's foolish to not just roll the dice with a hundred dollars.

01:41:18.740 It's just foolish.

01:41:19.400 If it went, if it went to a hundred thousand dollars a Bitcoin, I mean, then you remind,

01:41:26.900 cause we will remind you when we remind you in X number of years, if it ever hit that.

01:41:32.380 And we were like, remember when he said it was 1100 and we first said it, we didn't take

01:41:37.080 our own advice at 200 and then it was 73 and we said, just put a hundred in.

01:41:43.640 Yeah.

01:41:44.000 Now it's a hundred thousand a Bitcoin.

01:41:46.460 Yeah.

01:41:46.760 And who knows?

01:41:47.840 It could go to zero.

01:41:49.500 Right.

01:41:49.760 If packets in, it's going to go to zero.

01:41:51.300 We all know that.

01:41:52.020 But you lose a hundred bucks.

01:41:53.240 Yeah.

01:41:53.380 I mean, that's guaranteed.

01:41:55.180 The minute I get in, it goes to zero.

01:41:57.900 It will go to zero.

01:41:59.160 So that's, I think the leading indicator of whether you're investing.

01:42:02.260 So far you're okay.

01:42:04.520 I'm not in.

01:42:05.300 So Pat is here because he has a problem with the propaganda that Stu was spilling out about

01:42:14.940 the, uh, the tax plan from the Republicans.

01:42:17.460 Stu Ryan, is it?

01:42:18.800 Stu McConnell?

01:42:19.660 No.

01:42:20.420 Is it?

01:42:20.700 No, I don't.

01:42:22.020 I don't think so.

01:42:23.320 The Republican spin on that was great.

01:42:26.180 What are you talking about?

01:42:26.980 Like, like, oh, this isn't so bad.

01:42:29.900 And the, I said it's, I said it's a, the mortgage interest deduction that should go away.

01:42:34.740 Oh, I think that should go away.

01:42:35.720 But that has nothing to do with the Republicans.

01:42:37.160 Of course it should to you, Mr. Renter.

01:42:39.780 Or former renter.

01:42:41.060 Former renter.

01:42:41.380 But it's a terrible incentive, I think.

01:42:43.380 I love it.

01:42:44.080 But it's there.

01:42:45.200 And now.

01:42:45.360 Yes.

01:42:45.620 And now it screws people who already have it.

01:42:47.120 Yes.

01:42:47.360 Like me, by the way.

01:42:48.700 Yes.

01:42:49.100 But I, I, I, I don't like that.

01:42:52.040 And quite honestly, Pat, I mean, I was looking at this tax thing.

01:42:56.540 Do you know how bad it could have been?

01:42:59.100 Right.

01:42:59.460 I mean, that's, they were talking about, you know, and we're going to phase out, uh, the corporate

01:43:04.460 tax.

01:43:05.080 I mean, this thing could have been, we're, and we're so far away from this passing and

01:43:10.880 it's bad as the starting place.

01:43:13.440 It's terrible.

01:43:14.120 But it could have been worse.

01:43:14.900 It's a starting place.

01:43:15.480 But it could have been, it should have been so much better.

01:43:18.620 Yes.

01:43:19.020 Should have been so much better.

01:43:20.080 Yes.

01:43:20.260 They should be getting rid of the estate tax this minute.

01:43:23.580 It's immoral.

01:43:24.820 Yes.

01:43:25.060 It's outrageous.

01:43:26.160 The government has no business taking money from you after you die.

01:43:29.680 Once they tax that all your life, they don't have any business having any of it.

01:43:35.420 And, and they're going to, they're going to continue to.

01:43:37.520 And, you know, for the, for the million dollar rate to stay at 39.6 is a cop out as well.

01:43:44.660 Yeah.

01:43:44.800 You're just a coward.

01:43:45.960 Yes.

01:43:46.320 Just a coward.

01:43:46.800 You can't defend yourself.

01:43:47.840 You don't know why you believe the things you believe.

01:43:50.460 And with Republicans like this, who needs Democrats?

01:43:53.480 You've got them.

01:43:54.400 They're, they're both.

01:43:55.640 They're all Democrats.

01:43:56.620 It doesn't matter anymore.

01:43:57.840 Yeah.

01:43:58.280 I mean, I think it will result in most people paying less in taxes.

01:44:02.100 So from that perspective, I, you know, I'm, I'm glad it's better than where we are,

01:44:06.980 but it still sucks when it comes to, when it comes to taxes, you know, when it came

01:44:10.980 to, when it came to Obamacare, I was reluctantly on the, yeah, okay, it's better than where

01:44:17.480 we are, but I know, but with taxes, anything that makes it go down, I'm for, I'm not happy

01:44:25.620 about it because it should have gone a lot better than this, but anything that goes down

01:44:30.620 and goes down permanently, I'm for, okay, Glenn McConnell, wait a minute, Pat, you were

01:44:39.040 just saying it was he, it was McConnell.

01:44:40.960 I didn't like being on that side of it.

01:44:42.780 Okay.

01:44:43.220 It's not fun.

01:44:43.940 Is it?

01:44:44.180 It's not fun.

01:44:44.820 Have you guys looked into the, the 470,000 Osama files?

01:44:50.640 A little bit, only a little bit, only to the, the Charlie bit my finger off or bit

01:44:55.420 my finger.

01:44:56.460 The Charlie bit your finger.

01:44:57.940 Yeah.

01:44:58.060 Do you remember the, do you remember the video of the cute little kids from great?

01:45:01.100 Yes.

01:45:01.600 Yeah.

01:45:01.920 And they were like, Charlie bit my finger.

01:45:04.520 He had that.

01:45:05.360 He had that video and they talked, they talked to the dad and the dad was like, I don't know

01:45:11.880 what to say.

01:45:12.520 It's pretty hard to think that he was planning things like September 11th and then watching

01:45:16.700 my kids.

01:45:19.480 It's fantastic.

01:45:20.800 I hadn't heard that.

01:45:21.620 Yeah.

01:45:22.240 But they got that.

01:45:23.220 They, they also found the 228 pages of his personal handwritten journal, which they've

01:45:28.220 released some of the entries now.

01:45:29.720 Um, this was dated January 21st, 2003, dear diary.

01:45:37.060 I've fallen in love with my goat.

01:45:39.020 My sheep are jealous in time.

01:45:40.980 They'll get over it.

01:45:42.260 Uh, July 14th, 2005, just a couple of years later.

01:45:45.740 Yeah.

01:45:46.260 Uh, dear diary.

01:45:47.580 Praise Allah.

01:45:48.760 I found eight more bugs in my beard today.

01:45:50.500 I will not go to bed hungry tonight.

01:45:54.060 That's nice.

01:45:54.660 And then a few years later, I don't know what happened in between, but from April 20, 26th,

01:45:59.720 2010, very soon I will be retiring from terrorism.

01:46:03.520 It's time for me to devote full time to selling facial cream with the infidel Joanna Gaines.

01:46:15.500 Wow.

01:46:16.260 Well, hopefully we'll get a little bit more from that, uh, diary on Pat Gray Unleashed coming

01:46:20.440 up on the Blaze Radio and TV networks in just a few moments.

01:46:24.660 With a recent breach of, uh, credit bureaus, people don't know what to do.

01:46:31.260 Um, and taking half measures is, is not going to protect you against the identity, uh,

01:46:37.140 fraud threat that is arising from data breaches.

01:46:40.460 Here's, here's what happens.

01:46:42.160 Um, data breachers, the hacks, the hackers go in and they take maybe your social security

01:46:48.760 number, your birthday, um, or, you know, a driver's license.

01:46:52.460 They have partial information.

01:46:54.140 They go to the dark web.

01:46:55.460 They join that information with somebody else that has other information that augments that

01:47:02.320 they put it together like a puzzle.

01:47:04.160 Now they can do anything.

01:47:05.520 They can commit crimes in your name.

01:47:07.520 They can steal from your 401k.

01:47:09.800 They can, they can buy houses in your name.

01:47:12.520 Um, and they can do that with your children's, uh, social security number for a long, long

01:47:18.260 time before your children go to get a social security number, or I'm sorry.

01:47:23.120 So, you know, go to put money into a bank and they realized my credit's been destroyed.

01:47:28.260 Life lock.

01:47:30.140 They use proprietary technology to detect a wide range of identity theft.

01:47:34.380 And if there is a problem, a U S based identity restoration specialist is going to work to

01:47:38.400 fix it.

01:47:38.880 Now, nobody can prevent all identity theft, monitor all transactions at all businesses,

01:47:42.780 but life lock can help you see more threats to your identity.

01:48:12.500 Glenn back.

01:48:14.100 So I'm not a, uh, I'm not a sports fan.

01:48:16.580 Obviously I got my rest this week.

01:48:18.740 Uh, game seven last night, everybody I know says is one of the greatest world series of

01:48:24.340 all time.

01:48:24.960 Yeah.

01:48:25.520 Uh, and the Astros one, which is not making the people in Dallas very happy.

01:48:30.640 Um, but, uh, the Astros one, and I find this part of the story really fascinating.

01:48:37.240 Uh, baseball's great experiment.

01:48:39.800 Now this is a sports illustrated cover from 2014, 2014, 2014, unprecedented look at how a

01:48:46.600 franchise is going beyond money ball to build the game's next big thing, your 2017 world

01:48:53.680 series champs.

01:48:55.360 And on the cover is George Springer.

01:48:59.400 Now this is three years ago, three years ago.

01:49:02.740 They were the, by the way, at the time, the worst team in baseball, uh, and, uh, had lost

01:49:08.380 over a hundred games.

01:49:09.760 We're changing this around and the top baseball is great experiment.

01:49:12.840 They were trying something completely new.

01:49:14.820 Um, so last night, of course, the Astros win the world series in 2017.

01:49:19.980 So the new cover this week is the exact same as it was in 2014.

01:49:25.640 Baseball's great experiment.

01:49:26.820 You're 2017 world series champs.

01:49:28.440 It's about the Astros.

01:49:29.680 The same player is on the cover.

01:49:31.460 Just an updated picture because George Springer won the MVP of the world series.

01:49:37.920 Uh, so, I mean, you want to talk about calling it.

01:49:40.420 So we should get the author of that story on.

01:49:44.400 Was this, was this their stated goal with the Astros saying we're going to rebuild, was

01:49:49.480 it like money ball and we're going to rebuild it and, uh, and we plan on being, you know,

01:49:55.720 we plan on being in the world series in 20, 2017, or was this the author saying, look at

01:50:02.300 what they're doing.

01:50:03.680 This is going to put them in the world series.

01:50:05.320 I think it was, I don't think they wouldn't promise they were going to be, but I think they

01:50:08.580 were looking at it as a three year plan or whatever.

01:50:10.920 And it happened.

01:50:11.760 And, and beyond the coolness of that, uh, you know, cover, you also have the situation

01:50:18.040 of just like, how could you not root for Houston after what they've been through this year?

01:50:22.060 You know what I mean?

01:50:22.700 Like, I think you're right.

01:50:23.420 Like Dallas to have a little bit of a rivalry, they wanted the Rangers to win before the

01:50:27.220 Astros and all of that.

01:50:28.200 But it's like with what they've gone through this year, it's no, it's great.

01:50:31.980 It's impossible to root against them unless you're a Dodgers fan.

01:50:34.380 And of course, you know, it sucks for the Dodgers because they haven't won in a while

01:50:37.380 either.

01:50:38.020 But I mean, I mean, we had three great world series in a row.

01:50:42.400 Uh, really, I mean, how are the ratings?

01:50:45.440 Uh, good, good, actually.

01:50:47.100 Uh, really good.

01:50:47.980 The ratings, I didn't see the number for this game, but I don't need anything.

01:50:50.620 I think it did 22 million for game six, which is a huge number.

01:50:53.100 That's a huge number, especially now.

01:50:54.320 Game seven, as far as a game went, was not the greatest game in the world.

01:50:57.460 It was, you know, five, nothing pretty early and ended at five, one, but still.

01:51:01.220 I don't think I know how to find, I don't think I even know how to find the local affiliates

01:51:06.860 on TV anymore.

01:51:08.000 I mean, I just never use my TV like that.

01:51:11.320 Yeah.

01:51:11.460 Well, and you're not a sports fan and really like a lot of people, I think it's only live

01:51:14.600 sports that you use it for.

01:51:15.860 Yeah.

01:51:16.220 Uh, but it's interesting because they had a story that came out about the NFL as well.

01:51:19.960 Everyone's talking about the NFL ratings being down.

01:51:21.860 Yeah.

01:51:22.320 Um, it's, it's, they are down.

01:51:24.740 However, all of television is down.

01:51:27.900 Yeah.

01:51:27.980 This is interesting.

01:51:28.600 I hadn't seen this, uh, NFL is down 5% overall from the same time last year, troubling drop

01:51:33.300 for the biggest ratings powerhouse on TV, but it seems less dire when you consider that

01:51:36.740 the four major networks are down an average of 8%.

01:51:39.760 So they're down eight and then the NFL is only down 5%.

01:51:43.580 So that's outpacing.

01:51:45.120 Yeah.

01:51:45.320 It's actually down more.

01:51:46.720 And I think that's like, you know, ESPN is dropping subscribers like crazy.

01:51:50.620 We were talking about this the other day.

01:51:51.600 They've lost 15,000 subscribers a day.

01:51:54.240 They're talking about losing.

01:51:55.680 I mean, I, you know how much money that is.

01:51:57.040 It's incredible.

01:51:57.680 But on the other side of that, it's like, is that partially because they become an annoying

01:52:02.520 left-wing situation?

01:52:04.060 Is, is, is the NFL partially because of the kneeling?

01:52:06.580 I think that's probably true at some level.

01:52:08.960 But I mean, when you look at the grand scheme of things, like people aren't canceling their

01:52:11.940 entire cable subscription because they don't like, you know, the, the opinions on ESPN.

01:52:16.060 But are they, um, you might be, if that's the only reason why you really have it.

01:52:20.520 Yeah.

01:52:20.880 Uh, and is ESPN growing anyplace else?

01:52:24.700 I mean, certainly their digital stuff's growing, but it's hard to grow it at the same pace.

01:52:28.440 I mean, I mean, 15,000 a day.

01:52:30.920 Yeah.

01:52:31.440 I mean, that is, that's a hemorrhage.

01:52:33.140 If you can get into it and you can be successful in it, it's really, really good.

01:52:36.720 Uh, but you know, those things are changing, uh, and they're huge amounts of money on the

01:52:40.980 line because there's these long-term contracts that have already existed.

01:52:44.500 But congratulations to the Astros, man.

01:52:46.160 That was great to watch.

01:52:47.480 It's good to see Houston.

01:52:49.480 Have a good, good night.

01:52:53.400 Glenn, back.
