The Glenn Beck Program - 3⧸23⧸17 - Full Show

00:00:00.520 This is the Blaze Radio On Demand.

00:00:04.800 The Republicans are nearing a last-minute deal to save their health care bill.

00:00:13.200 At the same time, the Republicans are working to get rid of their health care bill.

00:00:19.920 Who wins? We'll find out today. This is a very big, big deal.

00:00:25.260 A London terror attack as well. We have an update on what happened with Gorsuch, but nothing spectacular.

00:00:33.680 The guy is going to be our next Supreme Court justice, I'm sure.

00:00:38.640 Some technology news and a way to look at what's happening in the world with new eyes that is really quite optimistic.

00:00:52.260 We go there, begin there right now.

00:00:55.260 I will make you stand. I will raise my voice. I will hold your hand.

00:01:03.100 Because we are one. I will beat my drum. I have made my choice.

00:01:09.400 We will overcome. Because we are one.

00:01:13.780 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:17.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:21.140 I'm going to get into wiretapping and the president and the former president and Russia.

00:01:30.260 We'll do that in just a few minutes.

00:01:32.240 I started a book last night written by a guy who's a historian and wrote the book Sapiens a few years ago,

00:01:43.140 which was a huge bestseller.

00:01:45.660 He's just put out a new book called Homo Deus, which I believe means God is gay, right, Pat? 0.95

00:01:52.660 Wouldn't that be? 0.83

00:01:53.860 Yeah, loosely translated.

00:01:54.880 Loosely translated.

00:01:55.660 Very loosely translated.

00:01:56.600 So anyway, Homo Deus, a brief history of tomorrow with a tip of the hat to Stephen Hawking and a brief history of time.

00:02:06.720 I just started to read the first chapter, not all the way through it.

00:02:11.560 And the perspective that it gives you on capitalism and the Western way of life is stunning.

00:02:22.760 So if you're feeling a little down in the mouth, let me just give you this.

00:02:27.460 At the dawn of the third millennium, humanity wakes up, stretching its limbs and rubbing its eyes.

00:02:34.880 Remnants of some awful nightmare are still drifting across its mind.

00:02:39.040 There was something with barbed wire and a huge mushroom cloud.

00:02:43.400 Oh, well, that was just a bad dream.

00:02:45.920 Going to the bathroom, humanity washes its face, examines its wrinkles in the mirror,

00:02:51.120 makes a cup of coffee and opens the diary.

00:02:53.960 Let's see what's on the agenda today.

00:02:55.740 For thousands of years, the answer to this question remained unchanged.

00:03:01.380 The same problems preoccupied the people of 20th century China, of medieval India and ancient Egypt.

00:03:09.380 Famine, plague and war were always at the top of the list.

00:03:14.440 For generation after generation, humans have prayed to every god, angel and saint

00:03:19.000 and have invented countless tools, institutions and social systems.

00:03:23.520 But they continued to die in their millions from starvation, epidemics and violence.

00:03:30.520 Many thinkers and prophets concluded that famine, plague and war must be an integral part of God's cosmic plan

00:03:36.620 or of our imperfect nature and nothing short of the end of time would ever free us from them.

00:03:44.080 Yet at the dawn of the third millennium, humanity wakes up to an amazing realization.

00:03:49.640 Most people rarely even think about it.

00:03:52.960 But in just the last few decades, we have managed to rein in famine, plague and war.

00:04:00.280 Of course, these problems have not been completely solved,

00:04:03.240 but they've been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges.

00:04:10.660 We don't need to pray to God or any saint to rescue us from them anymore.

00:04:15.420 We know quite well what needs to be done in order to prevent famine, plague and war.

00:04:20.960 And usually now we succeed in it.

00:04:24.260 True, there are still notable failures.

00:04:26.560 But when faced with such failures, we no longer shrug our shoulders and say,

00:04:30.060 well, that's the way things work in our imperfect world.

00:04:33.340 Or God's will be done or God works in mysterious ways.

00:04:38.920 Rather, when it comes to famine, plague or war, when they break out of control,

00:04:44.080 we feel that somebody must have screwed up.

00:04:47.720 And so we set up a commission of inquiry and promise ourselves that next time we'll do better.

00:04:52.940 And it seems to actually be working.

00:04:55.980 Such calamities indeed happen less and less often.

00:04:59.060 For the first time in history, more people die today from eating too much than eating too little.

00:05:08.820 More people die from old age than from infectious diseases.

00:05:13.900 And more people commit suicide today than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals combined.

00:05:22.540 In the early 21st century, the average human is far more likely from...

00:05:27.000 It's rare that you hear a positive spin on suicide.

00:05:30.980 It is.

00:05:31.840 That's true.

00:05:32.640 That is true.

00:05:33.800 That's amazing.

00:05:34.240 It is true.

00:05:34.880 A lot of people will use these stats like, well, more...

00:05:38.620 A higher percentage of people are dying because of heart disease than ever before.

00:05:43.440 And we need to stop this crisis.

00:05:44.720 Oh, wait.

00:05:45.060 Don't say it because he says it.

00:05:46.780 He says it.

00:05:47.500 But I'm saying it.

00:05:48.000 In early 21st century, the average human is far more likely to die from binging at McDonald's

00:05:53.340 than from drought, Ebola, or Al-Qaeda.

00:05:55.880 Hence, even though presidents, CEOs, and generals still have their daily schedules full of economic

00:06:01.780 crisis, military conflicts, and the cosmic scale of history, humankind can lift its eyes

00:06:09.860 up and start looking towards new horizons.

00:06:12.180 If we are indeed bringing famine, plague, and war under control, what will replace them at

00:06:19.260 the top of the human agenda?

00:06:21.780 Like firefighters in a world without fire, so humankind in the 21st century will need to

00:06:27.700 ask itself an unprecedented question.

00:06:30.800 What are we going to do with ourselves?

00:06:32.040 In a healthy, prosperous, and harmonious world, what will demand our attention and ingenuity?

00:06:39.900 This question becomes doubtedly urgent given the immense new powers that biotechnology and

00:06:46.700 information technology are providing us with.

00:06:49.420 Let's start with famine, which for thousands of years has been humanity's worst enemy.

00:06:57.220 Until recently, most humans lived on the very edge of the biological poverty line, below which

00:07:03.060 people succumb to malnutrition and hunger.

00:07:06.120 A small mistake or a bit of bad luck could easily be a death sentence for an entire village

00:07:11.480 or an entire family.

00:07:12.800 If heavy rains destroyed your wheat crop or robbers carried off your goat herd, you and

00:07:18.000 your loved ones starved to death. 1.00

00:07:20.820 Misfortunes or stupidity on the collective level resulted in mass famines. 0.99

00:07:26.460 When severe drought in ancient Egypt or medieval India, it was not uncommon that 5% or 10% of 0.99

00:07:34.180 the population poverished.

00:07:36.700 Open any history book and you're likely to come across horrific accounts of famished populations

00:07:41.620 driven mad by hunger.

00:07:44.100 In April 1694, a French official in the town of Beauvoir describes the impact of famine and

00:07:51.280 soaring food prices, saying the entire district was now filled with an infinite number of poor

00:07:56.260 souls weak from hunger and wretchedness and dying from want because they had no work or occupation.

00:08:01.980 They lacked the money to buy bread, seeking to prolong their lives just a little and somewhat

00:08:05.920 to appease their hunger.

00:08:07.100 These poor folks eat such unclean things as cats and the flesh of horses that have been 0.73

00:08:13.300 filleted and thrown into dung heaps.

00:08:17.080 Others consume the blood that flows when cows and oxen are slaughtered.

00:08:22.120 I can just hear Jeffy's tummy rumbling right now.

00:08:25.120 Other poor wretches eat nettles and weeds or roots and herbs which they simply boil in water.

00:08:31.820 Similar scenes took place all over France.

00:08:33.680 Bad weather ruined the harvest, blah, blah, blah.

00:08:37.000 About 2.8 million French, 15% of the population starved to death between 1692 and 1694.

00:08:44.820 The following year, 1695, Estonia, fifth of the population died.

00:08:50.640 1696, Finland's turn, a quarter to a third of the people died.

00:08:55.720 Scotland suffered from severe famine between 1695 and 1698.

00:08:59.360 Districts losing 20% of their inhabitants.

00:09:03.440 But during the last hundred years, technological, economic, and political developments have created

00:09:08.980 an increasingly robust safety net, sparing humankind from biological poverty lines.

00:09:15.100 Mass famines still strike some areas from time to time, but they are exceptional, and they're

00:09:21.040 almost always caused, now listen to this, almost always caused by human politics rather than

00:09:27.380 natural catastrophes.

00:09:29.160 There are no longer natural famines in the world.

00:09:33.360 There are only political famines.

00:09:35.920 If the people in Syria, Sudan, or Somalia starve to death, it's only because some politician wants them to.

00:09:45.040 So, he goes on, for this a lot, he says, the Chinese, tens of millions of people, died in the great leap forward.

00:09:56.720 In 1974, the first food conference was convened in Rome.

00:10:01.080 Delegates were treated to an apocalyptic scenario.

00:10:03.440 They were told that there was no way for China to feed its billion people, and the world's most populous country

00:10:08.300 was heading towards catastrophe.

00:10:10.600 In fact, it was headed the opposite direction.

00:10:13.500 For the first time in its recorded history, China is now free from famine.

00:10:19.600 Indeed, most countries today, overeating is a far worse problem than famine.

00:10:25.380 In the 18th century, Marie Antoinette allegedly advised the starving masses that they ran out of bread,

00:10:31.280 they should eat cake, which is exactly what's happening.

00:10:35.460 The residents of Beverly Hills eat lettuce salad and steamed tofu with quinoa.

00:10:40.300 In the slums and ghettos, the poor gorged themselves on Twinkies, Cheetos, hamburgers, and pizza.

00:10:48.120 Then he talks about how...

00:10:50.660 Better to be poor, apparently.

00:10:52.060 Yeah.

00:10:52.800 Then he talks about the plagues that happened.

00:10:55.500 The plague, the Black Plague, 75 million and 200 million people, somewhere in between there, died.

00:11:03.380 More than a quarter of the population of Eurasia.

00:11:06.860 He goes into, the Black Death was not a singular event.

00:11:15.180 1520, the Spanish flotilla left the island of Cuba on its way to Mexico.

00:11:19.640 Little did they know, one of the soldiers had smallpox.

00:11:23.200 Listen to this.

00:11:24.200 They landed in a Mexican shoreline.

00:11:27.560 Francisco had the smallpox, didn't know it.

00:11:32.640 The virus began to multiply exponentially in his body, eventually bursting out all over his skin.

00:11:38.260 Feverish Francisco was taken to a bed in the house of a Native American family in the town of wherever. 0.96

00:11:44.340 He infected the family members who infected the neighbors.

00:11:47.340 And within 10 days, the entire town became a graveyard.

00:11:51.140 Town after town succumbed to the plague.

00:11:53.140 New waves of terrified refugees carried the disease throughout Mexico and beyond. 1.00

00:11:58.060 Tens of thousands of corpses lay rotting in the streets without anyone daring to even approach them and bury them.

00:12:05.080 Entire families were dead.

00:12:07.300 Half the population in some settlements was dead.

00:12:10.040 By 1520, it had reached the Valley of Mexico.

00:12:13.220 When the Spanish fleet arrived, Mexico was the home of 22 million people.

00:12:18.980 By December of that year, only 14 million people were still alive.

00:12:24.680 And within two years, that population was down to 2 million people.

00:12:31.900 He goes on to talk about all of these plagues, including the Spanish flu that killed a third of the population.

00:12:42.600 He says, with the global transportation network and everything else, Tokyo alone should kill us all.

00:12:50.060 Because it's a breeding ground and everybody going to Tokyo or Hong Kong and they'll spread this disease within 24 hours.

00:12:59.380 It's deep in the Congo and right in Manhattan.

00:13:02.720 He said, but it's not happening.

00:13:06.120 In fact, global child mortality is at an all-time low.

00:13:10.700 Less than 5% of children die before reaching adulthood.

00:13:13.900 In the developed world, the rate is less than 1%.

00:13:16.880 This is all due to the unprecedented achievements of 20th century medicine, which has provided vaccines, antibiotics, improved hygiene, and much more.

00:13:26.900 Every few years, we're alarmed by the outbreak of some potential new plague, such as SARS in 2002-2003, bird flu in 2005, swine flu in 9 and 10, and Ebola in 2014.

00:13:40.980 SARS initially raised fears of a new black plague, eventually ended with the death of less than 1,000 people worldwide.

00:13:49.600 Ebola outbreak in West Africa seemed to spin out of control.

00:13:53.320 In 2014, the World Health Organization said it was the most severe public health emergency seen in modern times.

00:14:01.460 But by the end, it had only infected 30,000 people and only 11,000 people died worldwide.

00:14:11.180 He goes on to say, despite all of this, we still think that this is only a temporary victory.

00:14:19.680 He said, however, in 2015, doctors announced the discovery of a completely new type of antibiotic.

00:14:30.700 I didn't even know this, did you?

00:14:33.180 Texabiactin, which bacteria has no resistance as yet.

00:14:38.860 Some scholars believe texabiactin may prove to be a game changer in the fight against highly resistant germs.

00:14:45.160 Scientists are also developing revolutionary new treatments that work in radically different ways to any previous medicine.

00:14:52.500 For example, some research labs are already home to nanorobots, which one day may navigate through our bloodstream, identify illnesses, and kill the pathogens in cancerous cells.

00:15:02.880 Microorganisms may have 4 billion years of cumulative experience of fighting organic enemies, but they have zero experience fighting bionic predators, and therefore would find it doubtly difficult to evolve effective defenses.

00:15:20.300 Then he goes into war, which is just as amazing.

00:15:23.360 And the whole premise of this book is, so now what?

00:15:29.580 I mean, I go from this really pessimistic, and it really is up to us whether we destroy ourselves at this point.

00:15:37.620 If we don't destroy ourselves at this point, the whole world is going to change.

00:15:43.380 Cancer will be a thing of the past.

00:15:47.140 You know, the number one killer now is what?

00:15:50.480 Cancer and heart attack.

00:15:51.600 Heart attacks didn't happen in the past.

00:15:55.040 They weren't the number one killer because people didn't live long enough for their heart to give out.

00:15:59.660 Cancer wasn't as big of a problem because people didn't live that long to have cancer.

00:16:04.240 As weird as it is, these things rising in prominence is positive.

00:16:08.080 Right.

00:16:08.620 It's longevity and also choice.

00:16:12.080 I mean, what a great world it would be if we all had to choose to die.

00:16:14.740 I know that sounds bizarre, but I mean, that's not how it's been throughout human history.

00:16:20.360 It just happens to you, and you've got no freaking control over it.

00:16:23.000 Now at least we have some control.

00:16:24.520 What he doesn't mention there is, we seem to have replaced the actual concerns of war, famine, and pestilence with the fake concerns of...

00:16:32.300 War on women. 1.00

00:16:33.060 War on women. 1.00

00:16:33.960 Safe spaces.

00:16:34.840 Trigger words.

00:16:35.800 Feeling uncomfortable.

00:16:36.980 Income inequality, all that nonsense.

00:16:39.620 This is what he's saying here is, so what are we going to pick as our goals?

00:16:47.700 And I think what we're doing is we're, A, still attaching to old goals.

00:16:53.220 We're still trying to make people afraid of former boogeymen.

00:16:58.800 Meanwhile, we're...

00:17:00.200 Now, he's not making this point, but I will.

00:17:01.960 Meanwhile, we are also taking apart the very medical system that cured us, that brought us here.

00:17:12.120 We all complain that American health insurance is so expensive, and it is, and it's out of control.

00:17:19.220 And the reason why is because we've taken it out of the free market, and we've tried to do this hybrid.

00:17:24.380 The hybrid doesn't work, and it hasn't worked for the last 50 years.

00:17:29.220 And so it needs to be taken out of a hybrid. 0.99

00:17:32.400 But because of that hybrid, it's allowed enough oxygen for gains to be made.

00:17:39.440 And if we kill, if we snuff the life out of medical research, we're going to go backwards.

00:17:47.920 We have to be careful and not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

00:19:25.360 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:29.640 Mercury.

00:19:30.320 Triple eight, seven, two, seven back.

00:19:36.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:39.060 So today is a big day in Washington because today is the day that President Trump either gets his health care passed or doesn't.

00:19:49.060 Um, the liberty minded Republicans are standing against this.

00:19:55.220 The White House is pushing hard for it.

00:19:59.020 More on that.

00:20:00.340 And also wiretapping in troubles with Russia when we come back.

00:20:12.520 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:15.420 Mercury.

00:20:19.060 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:22.220 Do, do the Republicans hold the line or do they pass now Trump care?

00:20:29.100 I, I mean, if you read the reports that came out last night, uh, talking about how the Freedom Caucus was all, they were all, you know, they had enough, no votes.

00:20:39.260 Now they're trying to get one or two things to, just to flip.

00:20:42.500 And Trump being the art of the deal guy is like, I mean, I don't think Trump cares whether X, Y, or Z is in this bill.

00:20:48.720 He just wants to get the bill passed.

00:20:49.960 Um, so he is saying basically there, supposedly the Freedom Caucus and the Freedom Caucus are the best, uh, we have, um, but are in there negotiating with Trump saying like, get rid of this regulation, this regulation, and this regulation, and maybe we'll come over and vote for it.

00:21:03.460 Um, so, uh, that, that would mean largely that this stuff, that the bill would pass.

00:21:09.700 They only, they only had to sway a few of them.

00:21:11.920 The, the issue at question is whether they can sway the Freedom Caucus without losing some moderates.

00:21:18.140 Yeah.

00:21:18.680 Um, and that is a question.

00:21:19.620 They said for every Democrat you get, you'll lose two, you'll get, you'll lose two Republicans, and for every Republican you get, you'll lose two Democrats.

00:21:26.380 Yeah, and that might be the case.

00:21:27.900 However, the things that they're talking about taking out are pretty, uh, I mean, for a Republican to oppose them, because some of it is like, uh, you know, pre-existing conditions they want.

00:21:37.760 And apparently Trump administration is absolutely not, we're not taking out pre-existing conditions.

00:21:42.080 That's not happening.

00:21:42.640 Um, but the other side of it is they want to get rid of the requirement to cover maternity care.

00:21:48.700 Obviously, you know, that's a weird thing for a lot of people who would have no use for that.

00:21:52.240 You know, people who are, uh, are either can't give birth because they're, you know, men, or can't give birth because they may be past the age in which they would be considering giving birth.

00:22:01.840 Um, and so, like, that type of thing being taken out, I don't think is the type of thing that would take a moderate and say, you know what, absolutely not.

00:22:09.960 Now, that's something a Democrat would say, um, but whether a moderate Republican opposes this bill based on the fact that you no longer have to cover maternity care for people who are men, is, I don't know that that's a deal breaker.

00:22:23.760 There's some things in there that they might want to keep, but again, that's, it seems to be this negotiation.

00:22:28.060 What's completely bizarre about this is the complaints about the original Obamacare bill were things like, hey, you're doing this in the cover of night.

00:22:35.380 We don't know what's going on.

00:22:36.680 B, you came up with this bill and then we're just rushing it through so we can get it done.

00:22:40.580 All of those things are happening with us.

00:22:42.180 All the same things.

00:22:42.680 All the same things.

00:22:43.760 And, and if you notice that the press is only focusing on the Trump supporters that wanted universal health care.

00:22:52.060 So he's going to lose a lot of his, his support in the, you know, in the red States because here's Bob who voted because he wanted full universal coverage.

00:23:03.860 Right.

00:23:03.900 Cause, cause you know, Trump said he was going to get everybody covered in the government was going to pay for it.

00:23:07.340 Now I think most people didn't take him seriously on that.

00:23:10.000 I think most people were like, you know, he's saying it because he's making a big promise and hoping people come around.

00:23:14.920 I don't think most Trump supporters who, you know, are going to bail on him because he's not giving you the universal health care he promised.

00:23:22.580 I don't think.

00:23:23.320 The question is, will most GOP supporters bail on the GOP if they do pass this water down, if they don't do what they said, repeal it.

00:23:33.420 Well, it's funny because I've been seeing all these, you know, people on the left and in the media in particular, in particular saying, oh, you know, look at what they're doing.

00:23:41.720 This is, yes, they're cutting some of the taxes that were in Obamacare, but they're promising less coverage.

00:23:46.160 They're promising worse insurance.

00:23:47.640 They're promising all these blah, blah.

00:23:49.060 And they go through the whole gamut of all these things that make things worse.

00:23:52.620 And I thought to myself, it depends on when you measure it from. 0.99

00:23:57.300 If you want to say, cause let's believe all the CBO crap. 0.52

00:23:59.920 And I don't, you know, there's a lot of questions with that, but let's say they're going to lose coverage for a second. 0.95

00:24:04.160 Lose coverage from what?

00:24:05.140 From, yes, the incredibly liberal president that passed the thing that everyone named after him.

00:24:12.660 Yes, it might be a little bit less big government health care than that.

00:24:17.900 However, if you would have gone back before Obama, let's say McCain won or Romney won,

00:24:23.460 everybody in this audience would be like, I'm not passing that.

00:24:26.420 That's way too liberal.

00:24:28.560 You're paying for how many millions of people of health care out of nowhere, out of whole cloth?

00:24:33.260 You're increasing taxes by hundreds of billions of dollars?

00:24:37.520 You're increasing regulation like crazy?

00:24:40.160 You're requiring...

00:24:41.000 Stu, this is a binary world.

00:24:42.840 You either have it or you don't, which you're going to vote for.

00:24:45.280 But I mean, this is a win for progressives either way.

00:24:49.120 Yes, it is.

00:24:49.660 The fact is, they either moved it 10 steps to the left in 2008, or they moved it 5 steps to the left.

00:24:58.240 There's no more conservative option coming out here.

00:25:01.860 There's nothing like that.

00:25:02.720 They have, in the Overton window, progressivism, everything we've talked about all this time,

00:25:09.760 they have executed yet another incredible magic trick to say that now Republicans, the Freedom Caucus maybe,

00:25:17.160 might be rooting for this plan that no one on the right would have accepted out of Barack Obama in 2008.

00:25:22.800 Nobody.

00:25:23.760 Everyone would have said it was crazy.

00:25:26.540 They all would have fought it to the death.

00:25:28.520 And now here they are saying, you know what, it would be a great option if we can back off Obamacare by 15%.

00:25:35.080 It's crazy.

00:25:36.800 It's truly crazy.

00:25:38.260 Now there's a couple of other things that are going on in this Russia thing.

00:25:41.500 And people are conflating two separate storylines, and we need to separate them.

00:25:51.420 This morning I got up and I watched the testimony of Comey with Trey Gowdy, who is, by the way, just tremendous.

00:25:59.840 He is just tremendous.

00:26:01.180 He's very good prosecutor.

00:26:02.360 He is.

00:26:02.940 That's what he was born to do.

00:26:05.020 This is when he's at his best.

00:26:06.400 Yeah, it is.

00:26:06.980 It is.

00:26:07.380 So he was going after Comey, and he was talking to Comey because there is a statute in the law that Congress was so concerned about giving the government power through these FISA courts

00:26:22.580 to go ahead and listen to foreign officials on foreign soil and have, if they're calling somebody here in the United States, what happens if, you know, somebody who's involved in something nefarious, they call Pat.

00:26:39.220 But they're not talking to Pat about anything nefarious.

00:26:42.860 Pat's just an innocent bystander.

00:26:45.360 What happens if that's released with Pat's name?

00:26:49.780 You destroy him, and you cause him to look like he's part of some criminal organization or terrorist organization.

00:26:57.260 No, no, no.

00:26:58.400 Congress made a deal with the NSA, with Department of Homeland Security, Justice Department, everybody who's involved in any of this stuff.

00:27:07.180 And they came up with a deal that said, we're going to mask those names, and there's going to be maybe 100 people in the entire country that can unmask a name.

00:27:17.960 And that person has to be at the collection point.

00:27:22.620 So, in other words, if the NSA has this, you know, investigation going on somebody, and they give that information masked to the FBI,

00:27:35.320 the FBI can't say, let me look under the cover and see who that name is.

00:27:38.960 You actually have to go back to the original collection point and say, here's why I need this name, because I think it's a guy that we're looking into.

00:27:48.940 Can you verify this guy?

00:27:50.660 They unmask it and say, yep, that's him, or no, it's not.

00:27:54.180 Okay?

00:27:55.140 That's the way it works.

00:27:56.100 And if it works any other way, it is 10 years mandatory prison sentence.

00:28:02.780 Well, somebody unmasked the names of the transcripts, and it was most likely an Obama political appointee.

00:28:13.000 And that's a 10-year prison sentence.

00:28:15.620 That has to be solved, and somebody has to go to prison, unless it's like Hillary Clinton and we don't really care anymore. 0.84

00:28:24.900 Well, she can't go to prison. 0.99

00:28:26.520 She's Hillary Clinton. 1.00

00:28:27.340 Right, I know.

00:28:28.400 But maybe it's somebody else like Clapper, and we don't really care about them either, because it's James Clapper.

00:28:34.120 So there's got to be some special exceptions, I'm sure, for some of these 100 people.

00:28:40.060 Trey Gowdy is saying, that person needs to go to prison, because if we can't trust that you're going to keep innocent names of Americans out, then we can't trust this system at all, because it'll become politicized.

00:28:53.540 He's absolutely right.

00:28:54.860 Now, that is separate, and that storyline is good for Trump, because it looks like somebody was politically after Donald Trump and was using the system the way it's not supposed to be used.

00:29:11.480 That's different than wiretapping and everything else.

00:29:14.160 That's just who unmasked the names.

00:29:16.160 10-year prison sentence.

00:29:17.560 Somebody needs to go to jail for that.

00:29:19.500 Separate that now from the storyline of, was there collusion, now they're saying collusion, with the Russians and the Donald Trump camp.

00:29:34.840 There's been some absolute bombshells this week that have been released that the right doesn't want to talk about, and they're conflating the two.

00:29:45.320 Somebody in the Obama administration needs to go to jail for releasing names.

00:29:51.760 However, there's the story about the financial ties to Russia with Manafort and Flynn.

00:30:00.480 Manafort was getting $10 million a year from Russia and laundering this money.

00:30:08.340 Now, we've known this before Trump was elected, but we didn't have verification.

00:30:15.040 We now have verification and the documents to prove it from a Ukrainian lawmaker.

00:30:23.140 And the reason why these Ukrainians want to do this is they don't like Vladimir Putin.

00:30:28.300 They don't like Russia.

00:30:29.400 And Manafort was working basically for Putin and his puppet in the Ukraine.

00:30:36.160 And that Ukrainian Russian friendly party was the one writing these checks to Paul Manafort to get his job was to get a positive spin on Russia, to make sure Americans saw Russia as friendly allies and not a foe.

00:30:57.300 Well, I would say mission accomplished there.

00:31:00.520 He was worth his $10 million.

00:31:02.360 Oh, my God.

00:31:03.060 Underpaid dramatically.

00:31:04.800 Oh, yeah.

00:31:05.440 And and that was not disclosed anywhere.

00:31:09.560 Paul Manafort never said that.

00:31:11.600 And the same thing happened with with Flynn.

00:31:14.300 He was being paid tens of thousands of dollars and he never disclosed it.

00:31:19.580 But that is just one story.

00:31:22.180 The second story that came out yesterday was now the FBI is admitting that they are looking into collusion with the Russians going after Hillary Clinton.

00:31:34.560 And it's beyond.

00:31:36.080 I mean, I thought it was collusion myself.

00:31:37.700 I thought it was wrong when when Donald Trump said, hey, I hope you hack some more.

00:31:42.820 I thought that was bad.

00:31:44.440 They're now saying that they have evidence of meetings, of documents, of recordings where the Trump administration or the Trump people were actually colluding with the Russians on releasing more information in Trump's campaign.

00:32:02.840 Someone in Trump's campaign.

00:32:04.480 More than one, it appears.

00:32:06.280 And again, I would say that that is a early level story.

00:32:09.720 I wouldn't say it's confirmed that we know there was collusion by any stretch yet.

00:32:15.240 No.

00:32:15.820 So, I mean, we have the FBI.

00:32:17.840 We have one, I guess, one source of the FBI.

00:32:20.760 And they're looking into it.

00:32:21.720 Right.

00:32:21.900 This is apparently what Comey was referring to when he said they're looking into this.

00:32:25.540 So there's a lot of details around this that are important.

00:32:27.360 Another one from the the side of Trump and the leaks, which I think you're completely right.

00:32:33.780 This should not you can't unmask these things.

00:32:35.740 This is one of the issues with this.

00:32:36.740 And it's what we said from the beginning, by the way, because, yes, I think it's very plausible and actually understandable that a campaign person who is talking to a Russian ambassador would get swept up into communications that we are monitoring.

00:32:57.320 The question the problem with that is it can be abused and it may be a case here where it was abused, which is something worth looking into.

00:33:03.940 The other part we should point out is this seemingly happened, at least to the reporting so far, after the election.

00:33:10.160 So Trump had already won.

00:33:11.960 And while that does not mean that the person, whoever did it, gets out of their trouble, it's important to know that, I think, from the perspective of understanding what the motivation was here.

00:33:22.280 There are a lot of stories that happened after Trump won.

00:33:24.660 Remember, the Obama people did not think Trump was going to win.

00:33:27.120 Nobody did.

00:33:28.620 I mean, I mean, at least because if he did, if you're saying I knew he was going to win, well, you should have freaking gone to a sports book and made 10 times your money on Election Day.

00:33:36.540 Then you should have done that.

00:33:38.320 But I mean, they did not think he was going to win.

00:33:40.860 So after this, there were many stories that the Obama insiders were trying to preserve evidence of these things happening, thinking in their mind that Trump was going to come in and get rid of it and make sure that no one ever knew about it.

00:33:56.920 So they that is a an interesting little thing that they may have thought to themselves, well, we're, you know, and thinking to themselves, well, we're in the right here and he's going to hide that evidence.

00:34:07.640 So we're going to make sure we get it.

00:34:09.200 And that should end in 10 year jail terms.

00:34:11.920 That activity, whether they think it was justified or not, should end in 10 year jail terms.

00:34:16.500 But it was not it did not have an effect on the election in any way.

00:34:19.760 The left is dismissing the first part.

00:34:22.640 The right is dismissing the second part.

00:34:25.220 Both are valid and any fair minded, justice minded individual will address both of them and separate them from one another.

00:34:37.680 And now this we've talked about how the fastest growing crime in America is identity theft.

00:34:42.740 Here's some evidence.

00:34:43.560 Hackers use Forge Cookies to breach another 32 million email accounts.

00:34:48.380 This is on top of the one point five billion email accounts they've already breached.

00:34:55.220 The stolen information posted for sale on the dark web as early as late August for three hundred thousand dollars.

00:35:03.920 What do they do?

00:35:04.880 People come in, then they hack in, they get your banking passcodes, then they steal you blind.

00:35:11.320 LifeLock scans hundreds of millions of transactions every second.

00:35:14.200 And if they detect your information being used, they send you an alert.

00:35:17.220 If you have a problem, a U.S.-based agent will work to fix it for you.

00:35:21.000 Now, nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions in all businesses.

00:35:24.900 But LifeLock is the best at identity theft protection.

00:35:29.360 Memberships are $9.99 a month plus tax.

00:36:00.280 We play a little bit of Ray Kurzweil.

00:36:01.880 We have to get to this later or perhaps tomorrow.

00:36:05.120 Listen to how casually Ray Kurzweil talks about what's coming.

00:36:08.940 Well, we're going to become increasingly non-biological to the point where the non-biological part predominates and the biological part is not that important anymore.

00:36:18.920 Sure.

00:36:19.320 In fact, the non-biological part, the machine part, will be so powerful it can completely model and understand the biological part.

00:36:26.840 Even if that biological part went away, it wouldn't make any difference.

00:36:30.640 How is it?

00:36:30.940 The non-biological part already understood it completely.

00:36:34.560 We'll also have non-biological bodies.

00:36:37.080 Sure.

00:36:37.820 We can create bodies with nanotechnology.

00:36:39.900 Sure.

00:36:40.120 We can create virtual bodies and virtual reality.

00:36:42.340 Right.

00:36:42.820 Right.

00:36:43.380 It's so matter of fact.

00:36:45.400 I know.

00:36:45.960 And this is the guy who's the head of...

00:36:47.540 And this is the head of AI at Google.

00:36:50.920 No more feelings for anybody in humankind.

00:36:53.520 One of the greatest minds alive today.

00:36:56.200 And one of the guys that Stephen Hawking is like, warning, you know, just matter of factly saying, yeah, by the way, we're just not going to have biological bodies anymore.

00:37:07.120 And wait, wait, wait.

00:37:09.220 Can you go back to that part?

00:38:34.700 Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:40.660 We have a good friend in that I think you need to hear.

00:38:45.020 Andy Andrews.

00:38:45.880 He's a New York Times bestselling author, written a new book, The Little Things.

00:38:50.180 Everybody says you should...

00:38:51.820 Don't sweat the small stuff.

00:38:53.440 He says, no, actually, actually you should sweat the small stuff.

00:38:57.480 We begin there right now.

00:38:59.620 I will make a stand.

00:39:02.540 I will raise my voice.

00:39:04.800 I will hold your hand.

00:39:07.220 Because we are one.

00:39:09.020 I will beat my drum.

00:39:11.280 I have made my choice.

00:39:13.540 We will overcome.

00:39:15.820 Because we are one.

00:39:17.880 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:39:20.820 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:39:26.780 Andy Andrews, a friend of the program, New York Times bestselling author of The Noticer and The Traveler's Gift.

00:39:33.180 And what was a great book you did about the Holocaust?

00:39:35.780 How Do You Kill 11 Million People?

00:39:37.640 Yeah. 0.95

00:39:38.280 Really great.

00:39:39.220 A really great book.

00:39:40.960 And they're all things that you can read quickly.

00:39:43.960 He has a new one out called The Little Things.

00:39:46.460 And honestly, Andy, I don't know why we have you on.

00:39:48.740 Because I've got enough to worry about.

00:39:51.140 I don't want to worry about The Little Things as well.

00:39:52.800 Jeffy's complaining about me during the break.

00:39:54.760 I know.

00:39:55.380 I know.

00:39:55.880 I just don't want to worry about that as well.

00:39:58.380 Actually, it's the greatest pathway to results you'll ever find.

00:40:04.060 You know, everybody, even people in first place, second place, third place,

00:40:07.300 they all compete the same way.

00:40:09.120 And they all increase and decrease the same way.

00:40:12.420 And you can do that.

00:40:13.840 You can do what everybody's doing.

00:40:15.320 But if you really want to double and triple your results,

00:40:18.420 it won't be how everybody else is doing it.

00:40:22.220 Because do you see anybody doubling?

00:40:24.440 See anybody tripling?

00:40:25.280 It won't be how they're doing it.

00:40:27.040 Okay?

00:40:27.420 And so you always have to look the other way.

00:40:30.360 And in a world where everybody's talking about the big picture,

00:40:33.760 we want to hire somebody with a big picture.

00:40:35.220 We want to be led by somebody who really has the big picture.

00:40:38.340 And a lot of times big picture people forget there's a lot of intricate little details

00:40:42.760 that have to be taken care of before that big picture ever takes place.

00:40:46.040 I can't imagine those kind of people.

00:40:47.640 Don't you hate those kind of people in my life?

00:40:49.540 Yeah.

00:40:49.800 Yeah.

00:40:50.040 And so the idea in reality, this is not just a little argument.

00:40:56.360 When you think about it, when Da Vinci created the Mona Lisa,

00:41:00.220 he did it with the smallest paintbrush available at the time.

00:41:02.900 And when people said, well, why are you doing it with the brush like that? 0.95

00:41:06.000 That's ridiculous.

00:41:06.600 He said, because I'm creating a masterpiece. 0.89

00:41:09.420 Well, when you go to the Louvre today, you can look at the Mona Lisa through a magnifying glass

00:41:14.900 and you can't see individual brushstrokes.

00:41:17.680 It is a masterpiece.

00:41:19.180 And so whatever you're doing with your life or your business or your family,

00:41:24.060 you're creating something.

00:41:25.940 And at the end of it all, whether you've created a masterpiece or a disaster,

00:41:30.400 it will have been done one tiny choice at a time,

00:41:33.820 one decision, one moment, one tiny brushstroke at a time.

00:41:36.980 So everybody is overwhelmed by everything that is going on in the world.

00:41:42.800 Everything is so big.

00:41:46.260 Does this help us to get?

00:41:48.660 Yes.

00:41:49.240 Yes.

00:41:49.760 Because see, again, we've got it.

00:41:51.980 Let me just give you an example of why I say this.

00:41:54.800 There are only so many decisions that you can make.

00:41:57.700 And I think everybody can relate to this.

00:42:00.740 You get home and your wife or your husband will say,

00:42:04.520 you want to go to a movie?

00:42:05.620 You want to go out to dinner?

00:42:06.360 And guys will always say, I don't care.

00:42:08.300 Yes, sure.

00:42:09.460 And I mean it.

00:42:10.360 I don't care.

00:42:11.400 Steve Jobs always wore the same outfit every day

00:42:15.240 because he said, don't sweat the small things.

00:42:19.140 Just, I'm going to wear this because this doesn't matter.

00:42:24.540 And that way I'm saving all my decision power for the big things.

00:42:29.640 He was really sweating the small things.

00:42:33.000 He made a tiny decision.

00:42:36.360 That allowed him to focus on bigger things.

00:42:39.460 See, this is good news that we should sweat the small stuff.

00:42:43.740 I'll tell you why.

00:42:44.840 Everybody thinks that they have big changes in their life.

00:42:48.800 They've got to make big changes.

00:42:50.840 But one time I was headed out in the Gulf of Mexico with a friend.

00:42:56.100 We're going to tuna fish.

00:42:57.180 We're going out 100 miles.

00:42:59.840 You know you can buy that on the shelves.

00:43:01.780 Yeah, I do.

00:43:02.600 I do.

00:43:03.100 My wife reminds me of that all the time. 0.93

00:43:04.860 How much does this cost?

00:43:05.840 About $1,000 a pound?

00:43:07.260 But we were headed out and we set the autopilot going out of the pass in 7, 8, 9, 10 miles.

00:43:15.640 I mean, we looked behind us.

00:43:17.080 Everything seems fine.

00:43:18.460 But when we got out there, we couldn't even find the spot.

00:43:21.880 We were miles away from the spot.

00:43:24.240 It was pretty scary.

00:43:25.760 But a week later, we had the autopilot surveyed and it was two degrees off.

00:43:31.440 Two degrees.

00:43:32.380 Now, you think about this.

00:43:33.620 A compass has 360 degrees.

00:43:36.160 It's like one-sixteenth of an inch on this compass.

00:43:40.060 And for a little while, you make that change.

00:43:42.960 It looks like nothing.

00:43:44.340 But you get out there, you get down the road, you can be miles away from where you intended.

00:43:49.540 Now, if you can do that on a negative point, you can understand that a little bitty shift right now can take you different places down the road.

00:43:58.340 So what are the things that we don't sweat that we should?

00:44:02.520 Here is a particular thing that we should sweat.

00:44:07.680 And that is the why instead of the how.

00:44:13.100 You know, when we're looking at principles, there's so many people who understand how a principle works.

00:44:20.460 They can harness this principle to run their business, to run their family.

00:44:24.280 They know how it works.

00:44:26.320 But there's very few people who take the time because once it works, they've got something that works, they don't search anymore.

00:44:33.780 They don't examine anymore.

00:44:35.880 But you get beyond the how and you figure out why that principle works as it does, you can begin to apply that principle in different areas of your life that seem to have no relation.

00:44:50.000 But in different contexts.

00:44:52.000 And this is why, you know.

00:44:53.180 Can you give me an example of this?

00:44:54.420 Because I don't think people even are looking at why on principles.

00:44:59.920 I don't think they're even looking for principles.

00:45:01.980 They aren't.

00:45:03.100 That's the point of the book.

00:45:04.620 I mean, because here's the thing.

00:45:07.400 You take how many NCAA football coaches are there?

00:45:11.020 You know, I actually have my hand.

00:45:12.660 And this is kind of an odd thing to say.

00:45:14.080 But I have my hand in the last nine college football national championships in a row.

00:45:18.880 Because that's really kind of what you specialize in is coaching the coaches, right?

00:45:23.840 Yeah, I do.

00:45:24.340 And with businesses.

00:45:26.060 See, I'm not a celebrity.

00:45:28.780 I can't go anywhere and command great money because I don't have a Super Bowl ring.

00:45:34.000 I don't have a gold medal.

00:45:35.220 I wasn't a hero of some national disaster.

00:45:37.440 I'm a husband.

00:45:38.200 I'm a dad.

00:45:39.300 And I'm a nobody.

00:45:41.220 I actually have to have results with my clients, right?

00:45:44.420 I can't just show up and somebody take a picture of me and that's worth $50,000.

00:45:48.560 Right.

00:45:48.960 You know, I've got to have results.

00:45:50.300 And so I can't have normal results.

00:45:53.120 I've got to help these people, these businesses double and triple.

00:45:56.080 Well, when you work with coaches, here's a great example of the difference in the why and how.

00:46:03.320 The vast majority of the NCAA coaches in football, they know how to do it.

00:46:09.380 They go to clinics.

00:46:10.360 They know how to do it.

00:46:11.120 They know how to teach it.

00:46:12.440 And they can have a winning record.

00:46:14.740 They can keep their jobs.

00:46:16.380 I would argue with you, after spending some time with Urban Meyer and Nick Saban,

00:46:19.940 Urban Meyer and Nick Saban know why these things work as they do.

00:46:26.380 And so they can refine them and they know why that worked in recruiting.

00:46:32.600 And so now they can expand that to use that in a different way.

00:46:36.740 Most people stop at how.

00:46:38.760 Because when they get there, because, get this, this is kind of a curious thing.

00:46:43.680 Did you know things can be true and yet not be the truth?

00:46:49.260 Example.

00:46:50.500 If we took a blind person and we said, okay, I know you've never seen this animal before

00:46:55.960 and you never heard of it.

00:46:57.980 It was called an elephant.

00:46:58.920 I'm going to give you a few minutes with it.

00:47:00.700 Feel around and come back and tell me what an elephant is like and how it could be used.

00:47:06.220 How would you harness what this is?

00:47:08.520 And a blind person, after a few minutes, might come back and say, okay, an elephant is flat. 0.89

00:47:13.160 It's tall.

00:47:14.160 It's wide.

00:47:15.500 It could be used as a barrier, a gate.

00:47:18.500 Many elephants could be used as a wall.

00:47:21.380 Okay, that's true.

00:47:23.120 It's not the truth.

00:47:25.400 Until you get to the truth, the truth connotes the bottom line.

00:47:30.260 Until you get to the truth about an elephant, you'd never have a complete picture.

00:47:34.380 And you would never be able to harness all the things available that an elephant is.

00:47:38.860 Okay, but most people, they get an answer, it works.

00:47:42.780 It can be used as a gate.

00:47:44.440 It could be used as a wall.

00:47:45.700 It's true.

00:47:46.400 Okay, I got the answer.

00:47:47.500 Let's use it.

00:47:48.720 And they stop at what is true when they know how.

00:47:51.560 And so, there is more.

00:47:55.600 See, the truth can only be really one thing.

00:48:00.300 There can be different categories.

00:48:02.120 But the truth is like the best.

00:48:06.260 Right?

00:48:06.520 The best is only...

00:48:08.080 And here's something curious.

00:48:09.580 In a nation where we're so divided, I look sometimes and I think, okay, you know, Christians and atheists.

00:48:16.560 So, there's a totally different thing there.

00:48:18.680 Do Christians want the best for their children?

00:48:22.000 Yeah, they do.

00:48:23.260 Do atheists want the best for their children? 0.99

00:48:25.540 Yes.

00:48:25.860 Yeah, they do.

00:48:27.320 Okay, well, the best, whatever the best is, it's only really one thing.

00:48:32.540 There can be different categories, but it's one thing.

00:48:34.300 And what's curious is, you can know the truth and not accomplish the best.

00:48:41.780 But you cannot accomplish the best without knowing the truth.

00:48:49.520 So, give me some real life things that we should be focused on.

00:48:56.080 Okay.

00:48:58.760 Here is something that may be the most helpful thing that I could lay out for people.

00:49:05.480 And this is in this book and it's detailed.

00:49:07.360 But very quickly, you ever worked at something in your life and you worked and you worked and you worked and you worked and you were getting results,

00:49:16.100 but you weren't getting the results you thought you should have.

00:49:18.340 And so, you know, you formed a committee or you hired a consultant and, you know, maybe I should just work harder.

00:49:24.040 Maybe I should come in early.

00:49:25.480 And it kept going.

00:49:26.620 And finally, you just said, you know, this is not going.

00:49:29.840 But then you found out a year later or six months later, wow, I didn't know the truth.

00:49:36.320 They lied to me or I misunderstood or, you know, if we didn't know that because we could have worked till Jesus comes and nobody would have.

00:49:45.580 We would have never made this happen or had something like that happen.

00:49:49.520 Here's it.

00:49:49.880 Here's a here's a here's an odd thing.

00:49:53.740 Everywhere I've gone for the past number of years, working with companies, teams, every everybody had when I say, OK, so what do you what do you want?

00:50:00.340 What do you want?

00:50:00.820 What are we going to talk about?

00:50:01.960 Well, we're going through a period of change.

00:50:03.460 Well, you know, we're starting to initiate a change.

00:50:06.080 Well, because of what the government's done, we've got some changes.

00:50:08.860 Well, things aren't having everyone's talking about change.

00:50:11.400 And it occurred to me that we must not be very good at this.

00:50:16.320 And yet every part of your life that boy, that's an essence.

00:50:20.840 That's a little Adam starting everything, everything.

00:50:23.660 I mean, oh, you're going to get married.

00:50:25.060 Great.

00:50:25.320 Well, things are going to change.

00:50:26.500 You're married.

00:50:27.360 Things change, didn't they?

00:50:28.420 OK, you have problems in your marriage.

00:50:31.000 Things change.

00:50:31.800 You want it to be good again?

00:50:33.380 Well, things got to change.

00:50:34.620 I mean, whatever.

00:50:35.600 Your child doesn't behave like you want to do.

00:50:38.240 Things got to change.

00:50:39.200 Oh, you want him to behave even when he's away from you?

00:50:41.360 Things really have to change.

00:50:42.940 Everything is change.

00:50:44.280 And yet we're horrible at it.

00:50:46.000 And the reason we're horrible at it, you talk about a tiny little thing.

00:50:50.140 The three things everybody believes about change are three beliefs society has about change.

00:50:56.340 The things that we employ with every change.

00:50:59.220 What are the odds all three of them would be wrong?

00:51:02.600 But all three of them are wrong.

00:51:04.340 Number one, people think, well, you know, you've got to have time to change.

00:51:08.340 It takes time to change.

00:51:10.060 No, it doesn't.

00:51:10.900 Change happens in a heartbeat.

00:51:12.380 It may take time to prepare to change.

00:51:14.620 It may take time to get sick of it long enough to change.

00:51:17.800 But when a change occurs, it happens in a heartbeat.

00:51:21.480 Number two, people say, well, they've got to want to change.

00:51:24.300 If they don't want to change, it's probably a deep desire to change.

00:51:27.140 No, that's wrong, too.

00:51:29.120 You and I could spend some time together and we've come up with many different instances in our lives where we were fine.

00:51:34.600 We're bopping along merrily, happily.

00:51:36.920 And some new information came in and we went.

00:51:41.380 And we turned we did a 180.

00:51:43.720 But you still wanted you still made the choice to accept the new information.

00:51:50.120 But there was not this long period.

00:51:52.360 All right, now, but I want to show you something here.

00:51:55.540 The third thing very quickly is that this rock bottom thing.

00:51:59.000 People think, well, you know, he thought he was a rock bottom, but he wasn't a rock bottom.

00:52:02.840 You really got to be at the rock bottom before he changed.

00:52:04.820 Well, that's not true either, because how many times have we heard somebody?

00:52:07.340 We said, what happened?

00:52:08.580 I said, well, I heard this guy on TV.

00:52:10.260 You know, I read this book.

00:52:11.560 I had a conversation.

00:52:12.740 I went home.

00:52:13.480 I poured it all down the sink.

00:52:14.880 Never had it again.

00:52:16.060 Really?

00:52:16.700 All the money we spent on rehabbing you and you heard some guy say something?

00:52:20.060 Right.

00:52:20.260 Really?

00:52:20.940 All right.

00:52:21.240 So here's the crazy thing.

00:52:22.760 There are two things that I cannot find.

00:52:26.220 Glenn, I would love for you to research this.

00:52:28.340 I can't find any instance of a nation changing, a people changing, a culture, a family, an individual, a company, a team.

00:52:36.600 I can't find any instance of true and lasting change that didn't have these two things.

00:52:40.920 Number one, what's in it for me?

00:52:43.740 I'm not talking about a greedy thing.

00:52:45.520 I'm just talking about, OK, we've been doing it this way.

00:52:48.260 You want us to do it this way?

00:52:49.480 Incentives.

00:52:50.280 Right.

00:52:50.540 And some incentive for them to want.

00:52:52.260 Exactly.

00:52:52.560 How does this affect us?

00:52:54.080 And the second thing is proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

00:52:56.840 Not a mathematical proof, but the kind of proof where people hear something they hadn't heard before or hear it in a way they hadn't heard it and they go, hmm.

00:53:03.600 Well, that makes total sense, doesn't it?

00:53:05.640 I don't know that I'll ever think of it in any way again.

00:53:07.840 And here's the deal, man.

00:53:09.100 When proof beyond a reasonable doubt collides with what's in it for them, they will change in a heartbeat and they will never look back over their shoulders.

00:53:18.200 And so this is true of you and me.

00:53:20.880 This is true of behavior in a child.

00:53:23.120 Well, you know, when we look at our childhood, I mean, Stu, when my daddy said to me, because I said so, well, there's a reason that didn't work long term.

00:53:33.080 What does that have in there for me?

00:53:35.940 You know, you got nothing in there.

00:53:37.300 As long as you're in my house and all this kid's thinking is, OK, I'm not always going to be in your house.

00:53:43.400 OK.

00:53:44.140 But we want long term change.

00:53:45.760 And so that's why the smartest thing I ever did with my kids is to make sure that they knew about 11, 12, 13.

00:53:53.820 I wasn't buying them a car when they turned 16.

00:53:56.280 I wasn't buying them a car.

00:53:57.180 Whatever money you have when you turn 16, that's the car you're going to get.

00:54:00.620 So they had to figure out, do they just save money from grandma?

00:54:04.260 Do they get a minimum wage job or do they start their own business?

00:54:09.660 You start your own business, you probably buy whatever car you want.

00:54:12.400 But you start your own business, baby, it comes with some some some challenges here.

00:54:17.880 All right.

00:54:18.320 And so I never had to say to Austin, don't wear that.

00:54:24.140 Don't wear that that way.

00:54:25.800 You don't need to talk that way.

00:54:27.860 Because all I had to say to him was, you know what?

00:54:31.140 When you think about it, that might seem a little disrespectful.

00:54:34.480 Not to everybody.

00:54:35.420 You know what you're wearing there.

00:54:37.560 It's not right or wrong.

00:54:39.440 It's not right or wrong.

00:54:40.280 It's not a sin.

00:54:40.860 But there's probably 30, 40 percent of people out there that they don't like that look.

00:54:46.200 And if you, you know, in doing what you're doing to earn money, it requires that people accept you.

00:54:51.460 It requires that they trust you.

00:54:54.240 They work with you.

00:54:55.420 And if you want to go out into the world cutting out 30, 40 percent of your opportunity, feel free.

00:55:02.260 Wear whatever you want to.

00:55:03.660 But it's whatever car you want to drive.

00:55:05.540 Andy is going to be with us this afternoon on the show, five o'clock, full hour.

00:55:11.480 He's going to be teaching this.

00:55:12.840 And I have a lot of questions on how this relates to the country.

00:55:17.980 Awesome.

00:55:18.320 The Little Things is the name of the book.

00:55:21.440 Why You Really Should Sweat the Small Things by Andy Andrews.

00:55:25.380 The Little Things.

00:55:26.780 And we'll see you tonight at five o'clock on the Blaze TV.

00:55:30.460 Now this.

00:55:31.300 Donald Trump versus Janet Yellen.

00:55:33.460 The clash is getting closer to happening.

00:55:35.660 The markets have been looking for some progress from Trump's promises on tax reform and regulatory rollbacks.

00:55:43.180 The the uncertain fate of the health care vote has thrown into question the ability to get the rest of its agenda implemented in a timely fashion.

00:55:52.700 Did you see what's happened to the stock markets in the last couple of last couple of days?

00:55:57.020 The stock markets baked everything in and now they're starting to lose faith that this stuff is going to happen.

00:56:04.440 And now they're starting to say, wow, maybe this is overinflated where four weeks ago it was fine.

00:56:13.040 The markets have shrugged off the rate increase from the Fed on March 15th.

00:56:18.020 But it is not going to shrug off the next one.

00:56:23.600 May I suggest that you call Goldline now.

00:56:26.980 Do your own homework.

00:56:28.300 Ask them about their free cashless society risk report.

00:56:31.640 Ask them about why gold and silver might be right for you and do your own homework.

00:56:36.500 Read the details.

00:56:37.640 Read the risk information.

00:56:39.260 And then make your own decision.

00:56:41.400 Things are changing.

00:56:42.960 It doesn't have to be bad.

00:56:44.300 But this might be one of those little things that could prove to be a huge and good change for you and your family down the road.

00:56:53.500 Call Goldline now at 866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-GOLDLINE, 866-465-3546 or goldline.com.

00:57:05.540 888-727-BECK.

00:57:07.960 Mercury.

00:57:08.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:57:20.000 New research shows the increasing mortality rate among white Americans and most acute among the less educated.

00:57:31.480 Black deaths are plummeting. 0.80

00:57:34.200 Hispanics are going down. 1.00

00:57:35.660 The white with high school education or less is going through the roof. 0.99

00:57:40.820 And it's, in contrast, elsewhere, France, Germany, UK, Canada, Australia, and Sweden.

00:57:49.280 All of that is going down.

00:57:50.960 U.S. whites going up.

00:57:53.360 Is that tied to the opioid situation?

00:57:56.500 Which is a really big deal.

00:57:58.200 Don't know.

00:57:58.820 They don't have an answer yet.

00:57:59.900 They say it is due in part by increases in deaths, what they call deaths of despair, alcohol, drugs, and suicide.

00:58:09.560 So maybe that is playing a big role.

00:58:12.860 But that's through the roof.

00:58:14.240 But, I mean, our drug addiction in America, we are off the charts in drug addiction.

00:58:26.400 And, you know, I don't think, again, I think we are focused on all of the wrong things and missing the little things that could change our lives.

00:58:39.320 The Glenn Beck Programmer.

00:58:45.320 Mercury.

00:58:49.320 The Glenn Beck Programmer.

00:58:53.440 And if I have to, I can do anything.

00:58:58.980 I am strong.

00:59:00.780 I am invincible.

00:59:03.680 I am one.

00:59:05.720 Such was the popular refrain from singer Helen Reddy, among others, in the 60s and 70s.

00:59:12.720 I am woman.

00:59:14.140 It was one of the biggest hits in 1971.

00:59:17.000 For thousands of years, the roles of men and women had seemed to be pretty well defined and, for the most part, accepted.

00:59:23.820 Generally speaking, men were the hunter-gatherers and women were the nurturers. 0.87

00:59:28.180 But society changed, and it took some time to adapt to that change.

00:59:34.240 And, as transitions can get, this one was occasionally rocky.

00:59:39.600 There was a time in between when popular culture made it seem that the most important task a woman had was just to make a good cup of coffee for her man.

00:59:49.720 Your coffee, sir.

00:59:51.980 Thanks, beautiful.

00:59:52.920 You're welcome.

00:59:56.160 How can such a pretty wife make such bad coffee? 1.00

01:00:00.600 I heard that.

01:00:03.100 Judy, what brings you over?

01:00:05.000 Oh, Mrs. Olsen, Frank crabbed about my coffee again.

01:00:08.460 Oh, is coffee a problem?

01:00:10.000 Sure is.

01:00:10.920 I can't make good coffee.

01:00:12.840 Good coffee's no problem.

01:00:14.480 If you use the coffee with better flavor.

01:00:16.900 Folgers, Folgers coffee?

01:00:18.620 And for the love of heaven, whatever you do, don't let the little lady drive. 0.99

01:00:24.260 Depending on how you drive and your car's condition, you can get incredible mileage from the Goodyear Custom Wide Tread Polyglass Tire.

01:00:30.500 I've got 32,000 miles on my tires.

01:00:33.100 I've got 41,000 miles on my polyglass.

01:00:36.280 But polyglass means more than mileage when your wife has to drive alone. 1.00

01:00:40.620 When a woman's at the wheel, polyglass means more than mileage. 1.00

01:00:51.260 In the midst of all the social upheaval over the roles of men and women, ads and attitudes like these just ignited the spark of social change that led to the feminist movement of the 60s and 70s.

01:01:03.840 One of the most famous protests during the movement took place in Atlantic City.

01:01:09.020 It happened during the Miss America pageant in 1968.

01:01:12.520 To the feminists, the annual television beauty pageant seemed a gross offense. 1.00

01:01:17.480 Miss Illinois is Miss America. 0.83

01:01:21.240 We are going to sing your song.

01:01:27.380 Oh, America, Miss America.

01:01:38.500 Inside, one set of young women accepted the chauvinist baubles.

01:01:43.460 Outside, others carried on with more consciousness raising.

01:01:47.300 Just mad at all!

01:01:48.520 Don't watch kind of all the mad at all!

01:01:50.560 Women were everywhere, burning their bras and demanding equal rights. 1.00

01:01:55.660 We threw bras and girdles and stockings, high, high-heeled shoes and cosmetics into the trash can.

01:02:04.220 The press loved it.

01:02:06.560 And we learned very early on that the press liked crazy things.

01:02:11.120 So let's use the press.

01:02:12.800 As legendary and worldwide as the bra-burning event was,

01:02:18.180 it is interesting that the actual bra-burning never really happened.

01:02:22.900 We didn't burn any bras.

01:02:24.540 It would have happened if they had allowed us to have a fire.

01:02:27.260 The stunts got the coverage they wanted, but at some risk to their reputation.

01:02:32.000 For those who think that the women's liberation movement is a joke vaguely connected with burning bras and getting in the men-only bars,

01:02:44.060 may I disabuse you of that notion.

01:02:46.480 It is about equal pay and equal opportunity in the job market.

01:02:51.200 Protesters tossed their underwear into a large trash can, labelled the Freedom Trash Can.

01:02:57.000 But without permits, the clothing was never burned.

01:03:00.740 They're real rebels.

01:03:02.760 The movement was definitely still making news.

01:03:06.240 In America, they'd started to burn their bras, and a women's movement had already begun.

01:03:10.600 We thought, if they can do it, we have to do it in Holland.

01:03:15.400 But the coverage wasn't always popular.

01:03:18.060 Fifty years ago today, the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gave women the right to vote.

01:03:24.000 On this anniversary, a militant minority of women's liberationists was on the streets across the country to demand equal employment.

01:03:30.720 It turned out there really weren't a lot of would-be liberated women willing to stop their work for the day in New York. 0.99

01:03:36.820 Early demonstrations tended to be small, and the onlookers were by no means always sympathetic.

01:03:41.280 It seemed that almost no one was opposed to women having equal opportunities for employment and compensation under equal circumstances.

01:03:49.880 But with abortion on demand thrown in on top of it, along with many questions of equal access to all public bathroom facilities,

01:03:58.200 and the even more concerning prospect of women being drafted into the military service and placed on the front lines of battlefields,

01:04:06.600 the ERA Amendment became much, much tougher to sell to the American people.

01:04:11.920 William Buckley discussed some of these issues with ERA opponent Phyllis Schlafly.

01:04:16.220 The state of Connecticut ratified the so-called Equal Rights Amendment.

01:04:20.900 The proposed constitutional amendment, passed overwhelmingly by the Senate and the House,

01:04:24.980 holds that, quote, equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex.

01:04:34.120 That doesn't sound particularly subversive, and I would therefore like to begin by asking Mrs. Schlafly to state her principal objection to ERA.

01:04:42.060 Well, it's the very innocuous wording of the amendment that is the reason why many people didn't realize in the beginning

01:04:47.980 what unfortunate consequences it would have, but fortunately the amending process calls for a full-blown debate in the state legislatures around the country,

01:04:57.900 and this is where we find out some of the things that were not originally realized by many people who voted for it.

01:05:04.080 We find, as we look into the matter, that ERA won't give women anything which they haven't already got or have a way of getting.

01:05:12.360 But on the other hand, it will take away from women some of the most important rights and benefits and exemptions we now have. 1.00

01:05:19.940 What would be an example of that?

01:05:21.400 Well, a great glaring example on which there is full agreement between both the proponents and the opponents is the matter of the draft.

01:05:28.740 Women are exempt from the draft. 1.00

01:05:30.560 Selective service says only young men of age 18 have to register.

01:05:34.380 But the Equal Rights Amendment will positively make women subject to the draft and on an equal basis with men.

01:05:40.740 Nor could you have a system whereby the women would get all the nice, easy desk jobs and the men get all the fighting jobs. 0.98

01:05:48.220 It would have to be equal across the board, in combat, on warships, and all up and down the line.

01:05:54.500 Vice Chairman Ann Scott.

01:05:56.520 There is no question that if the Equal Rights Amendment is passed, the women would become subject to the draft. 0.92

01:06:01.060 However, I think that we have a situation now where the draft is going by the boards.

01:06:07.600 And furthermore, I think the question is not one of the rights of women here, but it is the question of the draft.

01:06:13.560 Clearly, no sane parent would want to see either child, either a son or a daughter, subject to the draft.

01:06:19.920 But if women are to be citizens and citizens are to be subject to the draft, then women should take the responsibilities as well as the rights of citizenship. 0.99

01:06:28.280 It is not simply a question of being subject to the draft.

01:06:30.780 It is also a question of denial of opportunity.

01:06:33.680 There are many situations in which women could benefit from the draft. 1.00

01:06:37.380 They already are in the service.

01:06:39.240 You might become a war hero.

01:06:41.120 Why not?

01:06:41.820 No matter how enlightened society was or wasn't during the 1970s, the idea of America's daughters being drafted into military service and placed on the front lines of a combat situation just didn't sit well for most Americans.

01:06:58.380 Despite some impressive and possibly unlikely supporter over the years, including the Republican president of the United States in 1975.

01:07:07.460 Women's liberation is truly the liberation of all people.

01:07:11.460 Let 1975 International Women's Year be the year that ERA is ratified.

01:07:20.960 Obviously, 1975 was not that year, even with Gerald Ford's endorsement, nor was any other year.

01:07:29.600 Without the passage of the constitutional amendment, did women's rights falter and die? 0.99

01:07:35.800 Are women more oppressed than they ever have been? 1.00

01:07:39.400 Or do they have more rights and freedoms than at any other time in the history of all mankind?

01:07:45.960 We explore those questions in the next episode.

01:07:50.400 Tomorrow on the Glenn Beck Program, in Chapter 4 of The War on Women, you'll learn how the left distorts facts to gain the female voting bloc. 0.98

01:07:58.720 Listen live or online at glennbeck.com slash serials.

01:08:02.260 Again, not an excuse to not look at the atrocities, if you will, today or the things that we can improve on today.

01:08:14.660 But when you look at where women were even 100 years ago to where they are today, I mean, to think that women. 1.00

01:08:25.480 Well, they've got their own cigarette now, baby.

01:08:28.560 They've come a long, long way.

01:08:30.120 They've come a long way, baby.

01:08:31.360 I mean, Helen Renner said it best.

01:08:33.380 No, but to think that 200 years ago, women all over the world were treated pretty similarly to the way women were treated in Afghanistan today or in Iran today.

01:08:45.740 They have come a long way, and things are pretty balanced.

01:08:54.980 You know, I just watched Mad Men, an episode of Mad Men a couple of weeks ago.

01:09:02.480 I'd never seen it before.

01:09:03.740 Oh, wow.

01:09:05.080 To see the way women were treated in the 50s, holy cow. 1.00

01:09:11.240 It jumps right out.

01:09:12.180 Oh, my gosh.

01:09:13.460 I really, I was watching it, and I thought, what would it be like to be able to go into a time machine and go back to that era?

01:09:20.920 I mean, that show did it.

01:09:23.100 Yeah.

01:09:23.440 I mean, it's really, really strange.

01:09:25.820 And it would just be shocking.

01:09:26.980 I think you would, I think several times a day you would be like, whoa, what, what, what?

01:09:32.940 I mean, just shocking how far we have come.

01:09:35.460 And it's nice once in a while just to recognize that and see, wow, we've got some room to go, but wow, we've made a lot of, and it is this country that has made the progress.

01:09:51.500 For the most part, it has been this country and this system of freedom and constitutional freedom that has provided a roadmap for the rest of the world.

01:10:03.000 All right, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

01:10:05.880 It's my Patriot Supply.

01:10:09.720 Our brothers and sisters across the Atlantic had a scary day yesterday after another deadly attack on Parliament.

01:10:18.560 I saw, what was it, how did they describe this person at first?

01:10:23.660 An older, the first reports were like an older gentleman.

01:10:28.400 And I'm like, uh-huh, an older gentleman.

01:10:32.940 What else?

01:10:33.740 Is there anything else?

01:10:35.180 An older gentleman drove his car 70 miles an hour across the bridge and then got out, ran down a police officer and stabbed him to death.

01:10:43.960 An older gentleman did that?

01:10:45.860 Wow.

01:10:47.060 It turns out.

01:10:47.660 It doesn't seem like much of a gentleman at all.

01:10:48.920 Yeah.

01:10:49.380 Thank you. 0.99

01:10:50.620 As it turns out, it's a Muslim terrorist again. 1.00

01:10:56.260 Wow. 0.98

01:10:56.840 And he wasn't that old, was he?

01:10:58.100 No, he wasn't.

01:10:58.740 I mean, he certainly wasn't like a senior citizen.

01:11:00.200 No, he wasn't.

01:11:01.880 When you saw him at least laying in the stretcher, you thought, how did anybody describe him as an older gentleman?

01:11:07.120 Yeah.

01:11:09.300 My Patriot Supply can bring some sanity to your world.

01:11:13.060 The world is unpredictable and at times can be catastrophic.

01:11:18.240 And it is the smart thing to do, whether that catastrophe is large or small, global, local, or just in your house.

01:11:25.680 Today, my Patriot Supply is giving away a one-week food supply for $19.95.

01:11:33.400 That's one week breakfast, lunch, and dinner food supply for $19.95.

01:11:37.740 Now, these are limited, so think about the price for one week of food that will last you up to 25 years.

01:11:46.100 Remember, everybody in your family needs one of these.

01:11:49.240 Supplies are extraordinarily limited.

01:11:51.740 One week of food for $19.95.

01:12:31.780 It's got to go to Alex Jones, doesn't it?

01:12:33.500 Yes.

01:12:33.980 Yes, it does.

01:12:34.360 This is the thing you guys are on.

01:12:36.320 Yes.

01:12:36.540 Like, quite on rice.

01:12:38.000 He's the most important voice in America.

01:12:39.560 Yeah, I know that.

01:12:40.620 I know that.

01:12:41.280 What is this now?

01:12:42.300 Oh, this is, well, this is him telling you that he's not, he's not arrogant.

01:12:48.460 I mean, I don't want you to think that.

01:12:49.800 And he doesn't want you to think that.

01:12:52.080 I never thought he was.

01:12:53.120 Well, sometimes it appears that way.

01:12:54.280 He's mentioned it a few times.

01:12:55.800 And I'm not bragging.

01:12:56.900 It's just that I didn't believe in Santa Claus at two and a half and nobody had to tell me.

01:13:00.240 I'm not bragging here, but not everybody's family found in Texas.

01:13:03.000 Again, I'm not bragging to say that things I've coined become popular parlance.

01:13:07.300 I'm not bragging, but aren't those some big pecs?

01:13:09.260 I'm not bragging when Jeff Bridges calls me.

01:13:11.160 I knew Vladimir Putin listened on a routine basis.

01:13:13.580 That's not bragging.

01:13:14.340 I'm not bragging.

01:13:15.060 I really have read thousands of books.

01:13:16.820 I know what I'm talking about.

01:13:18.200 I'm not some pseudo-intellectual here.

01:13:20.220 I'm not bragging.

01:13:21.000 And I'm not bragging.

01:13:21.860 I mean, it's a fact, folks.

01:13:22.860 I can think 50 levels up, okay?

01:13:24.860 I'm not bragging, Santa, Mr. Cool.

01:13:26.960 The only reason I've always been the coolest guy around.

01:13:29.140 When I was 12, and I'm not bragging, this is a normal behavior, I was going after women. 1.00

01:13:33.180 I mean, I'm not bragging, but I was 14 dating college chicks. 0.98

01:13:36.660 I'm not bragging.

01:13:37.640 I can't help it.

01:13:38.260 I start just saying, here, here's $50 bills.

01:13:40.460 You ladies all have whatever you want. 0.99

01:13:41.960 This is big, big, big mojo, okay?

01:13:44.440 I mean, I'm not bragging.

01:13:45.440 I mean, I'm not bragging.

01:13:46.180 I just want you to get the newsflash here.

01:13:47.500 I am the person that popularized the term false flag.

01:13:49.880 The truth is, I'm extremely vicious.

01:13:51.980 Yeah, I'm not bragging. 0.95

01:13:52.660 A lot of men are like that, but I mean, I'm crazy.

01:13:55.320 I mean, it's, you know. 0.54

01:13:56.020 I got tricks a thousand times more vicious.

01:13:59.500 The problem is, I don't want to release this stuff on the earth, and I'm not bragging.

01:14:02.740 I'm like a gorilla.

01:14:03.740 I'm not bragging.

01:14:04.520 I mean, it's like a war machine if I get in a fight.

01:14:06.420 I'm not bragging.

01:14:07.000 I mean, I'm not bragging, but I would literally have just absolutely devastated all those people

01:14:11.600 in about 10 seconds. 0.91

01:14:12.560 If I was to hit somebody 20 times, they'd probably die. 0.99

01:14:15.000 I can punch pretty hard. 0.99

01:14:15.980 I'm not bragging.

01:14:16.620 I'm not bragging.

01:14:17.380 I'm just an average guy.

01:14:18.460 But I got in fights in high school. 0.99

01:14:20.120 Punch me, I punch you back. 1.00

01:14:21.560 And then I slam your head in the concrete. 1.00

01:14:22.980 I'm not bragging, but I'm not bragging. 0.99

01:14:24.560 But I come from super Texas hillbilly, you name it, basically killers.

01:14:30.280 I'm very proud.

01:14:31.260 I'm not bragging, but I've seen your hernia.

01:14:33.960 Oh, man. 0.98

01:14:34.980 What the hell? 0.97

01:14:36.100 Wow. 0.66

01:14:36.980 He's the most fascinating character.

01:14:38.940 He really is.

01:14:39.920 He really is.

01:14:40.720 He is a meltdown in roid rage just waiting to happen.

01:14:47.340 It is.

01:14:47.760 And I don't ever watch him.

01:14:49.460 I just hear, I mean, please tell me I'm not paying for you to put those clips together.

01:14:53.560 Oh, no, people are on this bandwagon now, hardcore, and are doing this for us.

01:14:58.840 All sorts of sites that we've mentioned.

01:15:01.000 But it's amazing because now that he's so, you know, he's become a little bit of a popular

01:15:07.000 culture figure, I guess, you know?

01:15:08.880 I mean, it's funny.

01:15:10.740 We've been playing these clips forever.

01:15:12.120 Yeah.

01:15:12.400 Because they're just, he's literally the funniest person on earth to me.

01:15:15.940 I can't believe he exists.

01:15:17.600 Unintentionally.

01:15:18.200 Oh, yeah.

01:15:18.680 Never.

01:15:19.040 Never intentionally.

01:15:19.960 He would be the greatest comedy show if you weren't watching something in full-fledged

01:15:26.160 meltdown.

01:15:27.420 Yeah.

01:15:27.500 If you weren't seeing somebody that you're like, oh, my gosh, this guy's dangerous.

01:15:30.580 He means it. 0.99

01:15:31.920 He will bash your head into the sidewalk and kill you after he rips his shirt off, strangely, 1.00

01:15:37.240 for no reason. 0.99

01:15:39.300 Well, the pecs are not bragging.

01:15:40.900 You're not the pecs.

01:15:41.700 You're right.

01:15:42.160 The pecs.

01:15:42.400 This is the Blaze Radio On Demand.

01:16:01.680 Joel Rosenberg is a trusted advisor when it comes to things like the Middle East, Iran,

01:16:14.720 Turkey, Russia, way ahead of things, way ahead of the caliphate, way ahead of Turkey. 0.90

01:16:21.460 I mean, sorry, of Russia being an enemy and mocked relentlessly for it.

01:16:27.160 But now, almost 10 years later, he looks like a real prophet on some of the things that

01:16:33.040 he warned about.

01:16:34.260 He's got a new book out.

01:16:35.440 It's a novel called Without Warning, and he joins us right now.

01:16:40.440 The Fusion of Entertainment and Enlightenment.

01:17:02.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:17:10.440 Welcome, Joel Rosenberg, to the program.

01:17:15.080 He's got a new book out called Without Warning.

01:17:16.980 It's a novel.

01:17:18.180 And you must, because I know how long novels take to write and how long they're in production.

01:17:24.160 When you saw the new Kiefer Sutherland TV show, you must have gone, oh, come on.

01:17:29.480 Well, yeah, these Kiefer's doing a good job with Doesn't It, Survivor.

01:17:33.000 I actually started this, this is a trilogy, and Without Warning is the last in the trilogy

01:17:37.800 about ISIS capturing chemical weapons in Syria and plotting a series of genocidal attacks.

01:17:44.460 As the Syria unfolds, it's against Israel, it's against Jordan, and now, in this book,

01:17:48.960 against the United States.

01:17:50.580 But I began researching and writing it in 2013, Glenn, at a time where I had not heard of ISIS.

01:17:56.220 Al-Qaeda in Iraq, of course.

01:17:57.540 But I met with two former CIA directors, Jim Woolsey, Democrat, Porter Goss, Republican.

01:18:03.960 And I said, what keeps you guys up at night?

01:18:05.920 What are you worrying about?

01:18:07.500 You know, I need a new threat for my thrillers.

01:18:11.300 Give me something downstream.

01:18:13.400 Both of them separately said, Al-Qaeda in Iraq is becoming something different.

01:18:18.580 It's becoming more dangerous.

01:18:20.240 I'd focus there.

01:18:21.660 So I did.

01:18:22.520 And of course, as you know, by January 14, the president of the United States, President Obama,

01:18:27.600 was telling us, it's a JV team, it's not a big deal.

01:18:30.960 And two years later, ISIS is considered genocidal.

01:18:35.600 But that's why I started this series.

01:18:37.500 It was a little ahead of where we were.

01:18:40.240 And ISIS grew faster than I thought. 0.98

01:18:42.580 But it is a monster.

01:18:44.720 You're a guy who taught me a lot about the caliphate.

01:18:47.580 You're a guy who taught me a lot about the 12th, the mom, the connections with Russia.

01:18:56.820 And we haven't seen each other in a very long time.

01:18:59.260 The world has changed.

01:19:00.780 Well, back at the time that you and I were spending the most time talking about the rise

01:19:05.320 of the caliphate.

01:19:06.160 I mean, at one point, back when you were on CNN, we did a week's worth of programs.

01:19:10.940 And you recall, I mean, you got hit worse than I did. 0.99

01:19:14.300 But caliphate, I mean, come on, don't be ridiculous. 0.98

01:19:17.800 That's 7th century. 0.97

01:19:18.840 Nobody talked about this.

01:19:21.020 Look, you know, if you just read what the radicals say, and you believe them,

01:19:27.900 you will look prophetic or prescient.

01:19:30.440 But you've got to be willing to say it ahead of what everyone else thinks,

01:19:34.600 because it's just not current.

01:19:35.880 But now here we are.

01:19:37.260 And the fight to take down the caliphate is the fight right now.

01:19:41.620 What are you thinking about what's happening in Turkey?

01:19:45.300 Well, Turkey's turning to the dark side. 0.61

01:19:47.560 I mean, it's challenging because they're still a NATO ally.

01:19:50.760 And in some ways, we do need them.

01:19:52.760 But under Erdogan, you've got a guy swinging to a militant Islamist perspective.

01:19:58.640 Saying he's going to send people in, basically, as a population bomb into Germany. 0.76

01:20:05.500 Well, and look, for the last several years, he has allowed a wave of foreign fighters

01:20:10.620 to come sweeping through Turkey into Syria that are some of our worst enemies. 1.00

01:20:15.660 Now, he's tamped down on that.

01:20:18.200 But this is, what you're watching is a man who sees himself as a modern sultan,

01:20:24.320 trying to rebuild not just the caliphate, but really the Ottoman Empire.

01:20:28.820 We are living in a world where, you know, you and I talked about, you mentioned the 12th Imam.

01:20:35.940 We are not just dealing with militant Islamists.

01:20:38.840 We are, and he's one of them.

01:20:40.720 But we're dealing with apocalyptic Islamists. 0.95

01:20:43.980 In Iran, the leaders of ISIS, they're not just trying to be, they're not just radicals.

01:20:49.500 They are trying to bring about the end of the world, as we know it, through genocide.

01:20:53.980 Now, Iran has a longer-term objective, build nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. 0.89

01:20:59.580 We'll do genocide later when we get those. 0.90

01:21:02.340 ISIS is saying, you know, forget that.

01:21:04.900 You've got a car, you've got an M-16, you've got a sword. 0.98

01:21:08.720 You can start slaughtering now, and this is genocide against Christians, Yazidis, Shia Muslims, 0.99

01:21:14.980 anybody that disagrees with them. 0.99

01:21:16.860 But this is not radical Islam.

01:21:18.780 This is what I call apocalyptic Islam. 1.00

01:21:20.740 Islam, we do have a president now who at least is willing to say radical Islam.

01:21:25.900 Right.

01:21:26.260 And neither of the last two presidents were willing to do that.

01:21:28.840 I was on CNN International a couple of days ago, and they asked me about, you know, the Muslim ban.

01:21:36.800 And I said, I have a problem with any Muslim ban. 0.99

01:21:39.580 I don't have a problem with an Islamicist ban. 1.00

01:21:42.400 The problem is, is that even George Bush, no one is willing to say there's a difference between a Muslim and an Islamist.

01:21:53.260 And it's hard to find, and I don't know what the difference is.

01:21:58.400 And the population of Islamists over in the Middle East is wildly high.

01:22:03.520 That's right.

01:22:03.820 Then you have to divide, though, out political Islamists and militant Islamists.

01:22:08.680 And I would still say that number, I think, is knowable.

01:22:11.960 You look at extensive polling, as I have with a number of Middle East experts,

01:22:17.160 and we think the number is about 7 to 10 percent of people who are willing to tell pollsters over the last 15 years,

01:22:24.500 I support suicide bombing. 0.99

01:22:26.740 I support, more recently, the Islamic State. 0.93

01:22:29.000 They are willing to say, I support violence against innocents to achieve my religious or political objectives.

01:22:37.400 So the good news is 90 percent are not willing to use violence.

01:22:42.300 And I think you're only talking about maybe one in four in total who are Islamists.

01:22:49.160 But one in ten are willing to support violence.

01:22:53.660 That's, in a world of 1.6 billion people, that's 160 million people.

01:22:58.820 If you put them all in their own country, the Islamic Republic of Radicalstan, 0.99

01:23:03.340 it's the ninth largest country in the world, half the population of the United States.

01:23:08.320 That's what Without Warning does.

01:23:09.980 This series sort of takes you into this world, not in an op-ed, not in a Washington speech,

01:23:15.520 but in entertainment.

01:23:16.580 Try to connect with the popular culture to create a high-speed, adrenaline-pumping thriller.

01:23:22.260 Another, you know, a Clancy-esque thriller, but that takes you into the mindset of people

01:23:28.020 who are hell-bent on not only killing us, but bringing about the end of days.

01:23:34.340 Are we making any progress against ISIS and radical Islam? 1.00

01:23:38.380 We are.

01:23:38.800 And I think you have to separate it out into two categories.

01:23:41.600 Let's focus on ISIS specifically.

01:23:43.620 We're definitely taking land back in Iraq. 1.00

01:23:46.420 About 60 percent of the land has been retaken by U.S. coalition forces.

01:23:50.460 That's good.

01:23:51.000 We're going to take back Mosul. 0.98

01:23:53.460 That's good.

01:23:54.260 We've taken down about 400,000 plus Twitter accounts.

01:23:58.000 That's good.

01:23:59.000 So we're making progress.

01:24:00.740 But if you ask the American people, and we just did an exclusive poll to find out,

01:24:06.440 do you think we're winning?

01:24:08.480 Progress is one thing.

01:24:09.480 Winning is another.

01:24:10.160 Most Americans say no.

01:24:11.340 We're not winning.

01:24:12.060 Because I don't think we are.

01:24:13.520 I don't think we are.

01:24:14.240 Because the idea has gone from Al-Qaeda in Iraq, which was bad enough, to 120 countries

01:24:19.740 being recruited into ISIS.

01:24:21.440 They've killed more than 1,200 people outside of Iraq and ISIS.

01:24:25.380 They've just killed again in London.

01:24:28.160 And I believe they're coming here.

01:24:30.280 In fact, I think that what Without Warning does fictionally is says, as you win in Iraq,

01:24:36.520 don't think that that reduces our threat level at home.

01:24:39.920 It actually increases it for the time being.

01:24:42.280 Because these foreign fighters start leaving the field of battle in the Middle East, and 0.93

01:24:46.340 they redeploy.

01:24:47.540 And a foreign fighter doesn't walk in with a Yemeni or Syrian passport.

01:24:52.500 They walk in with an EU or American passport.

01:24:54.880 How do you deal with what the American people do?

01:24:57.820 Because I think, under this president, with the lack of trust in the press, with the lack

01:25:04.560 of, I think we're approaching the Bubba effect moment that the military has been worried about,

01:25:11.820 to where Bubba's just had enough.

01:25:14.400 I don't trust the government to keep us safe.

01:25:16.560 I've had enough.

01:25:17.200 I'm taking things into my own hands.

01:25:18.680 Because with something like you propose in, Without Warning, you know, a decimation of

01:25:25.400 the Capitol during the State of the Union.

01:25:28.340 I'm not proposing that.

01:25:29.560 No, no, no.

01:25:29.940 I know.

01:25:30.280 But no, no, no.

01:25:30.880 I'm envisioning it.

01:25:32.320 You're telling it in, just like he for Sutherland is doing now.

01:25:35.700 Just for clarity's sake.

01:25:35.720 I just, you know, have no troubles.

01:25:37.420 Right.

01:25:38.220 So, as you lay this out, how did you envision the people's reaction?

01:25:43.460 Because I'm afraid we're approaching 1941 kind of mentality.

01:25:48.180 We could easily be swept up into, put them all in camps.

01:25:51.920 Well, yeah.

01:25:52.900 Well, that's, it's a, okay.

01:25:54.360 So, that's a challenging question.

01:25:56.800 Several things.

01:25:57.440 First, over the last 15, 16 years since 9-11, if you chart out the growth of gun purchases

01:26:04.000 in the United States, it's off the chart.

01:26:06.100 Yeah.

01:26:06.300 That's not just because of radical and apocalyptic Islam.

01:26:08.900 That's also because of violent crime here in the United States, drugs, and people are

01:26:12.160 like, hey, the government is not keeping me safe.

01:26:14.940 And that's the one job that I absolutely want it to do.

01:26:18.680 So, that's one thing.

01:26:20.460 But we did, in this new poll, and I'll send you the link, maybe you guys want to look at

01:26:24.560 it more carefully because it's fascinating.

01:26:27.540 We asked people, do you want your leader to say that we're at war with the religion of

01:26:32.660 Islam? 0.87

01:26:33.040 I was worried to ask that because I thought, you know, what if we get this effect where

01:26:36.960 it's 30, 40, 50 percent?

01:26:38.980 It's only one in 10.

01:26:40.160 Yeah, I would think that.

01:26:40.640 That's bad, but it's not, you know.

01:26:42.160 It's not bad, bad.

01:26:42.660 It could be worse.

01:26:43.420 Yeah.

01:26:44.000 One in three say, no, no, no, don't mention Islam.

01:26:46.940 Call it violent extremism like President Obama.

01:26:50.740 But the plurality, well over 40 percent, said, no, call it, I think it's 46 percent.

01:26:56.740 Call it radical Islam, but our leader should be clear that most Muslims are not our enemy.

01:27:03.560 In other words, you want to mobilize Muslim majorities to help us in this fight, not alienate

01:27:10.060 and, in the worst case, radicalize them.

01:27:13.380 So, that polling tells me that we're not at the stage where people, you know, are going

01:27:19.900 to war with, you know, locally with Islam. 0.92

01:27:22.280 That's very good.

01:27:22.400 But I think you, look, I've had a lot of criticisms of the president.

01:27:26.300 I think that you have.

01:27:27.720 I'm just trying to recall.

01:27:29.660 I live in Israel now, but I'm picking up.

01:27:31.660 Right.

01:27:32.080 A few.

01:27:32.560 Listen, listen, I was a never-Trumper until Thursday before the election.

01:27:36.100 And I finally concluded, all right, look, it's true, he's got all these liabilities,

01:27:40.660 but if it's him or her, I'm going with him.

01:27:43.360 Sure, sure, sure.

01:27:43.640 And Mike Pence is a personal friend, and he loves my novel.

01:27:46.620 You know, I have to tell you, I don't fault anybody for that.

01:27:49.480 I really don't fault anybody.

01:27:50.280 So, just for context.

01:27:51.020 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:27:52.400 He's still making a lot of mistakes, but in the area of ISIS and radical Islam, I give 1.00

01:27:56.680 the president a lot of credit.

01:27:57.780 He's putting in an excellent national security team.

01:28:00.320 He gathered 68 countries together yesterday.

01:28:03.680 He's calling it out as radical Islam.

01:28:05.640 Now, I'm calling on the president to give a major address and define that term.

01:28:10.360 Yes.

01:28:10.520 Because you and I all know what we mean, but the American people have never heard an American

01:28:15.680 president say it.

01:28:17.120 And I don't think that the current president realizes that a term that he embraces is actually

01:28:24.240 not a term that most Americans have heard from a commander in chief's lips.

01:28:27.860 And they certainly haven't heard it defined by the press.

01:28:30.640 Exactly.

01:28:31.280 Right.

01:28:31.640 So, you have an opportunity.

01:28:32.640 He has an opportunity to go over their heads, the press's heads, and talk to the American

01:28:36.580 people.

01:28:37.140 What's the threat?

01:28:37.920 Last year, for example, 37 people in the United States were arrested on ISIS plot charges.

01:28:44.680 37.

01:28:45.400 That's three a month.

01:28:46.360 What I just mentioned, that ISIS is drawing from 120 different countries.

01:28:52.060 So, he can lay out facts like that.

01:28:54.000 But then he needs to be clear.

01:28:55.200 Look, 90% of Muslims are not our enemy.

01:28:57.840 We need to work with them, mobilize them to help us.

01:29:02.260 Protect them.

01:29:03.440 And to protect them.

01:29:04.560 Protect them.

01:29:05.360 So, I think that's the challenge now.

01:29:07.820 And I think that's the opportunity.

01:29:09.120 Okay.

01:29:09.400 So, the name of the book is, without warning, Joel Rosenberg.

01:29:12.800 He writes fantastic novels.

01:29:15.000 Let me switch gears here quickly, while within a couple of minutes we have left.

01:29:19.420 Russia.

01:29:22.000 Russia is not a friend. 0.91

01:29:24.140 And there is something going on in America where we are conservatives are suddenly saying,

01:29:30.460 ah, Putin, he's not so bad.

01:29:32.160 Russia's not so bad. 1.00

01:29:33.800 Listen, well, you've always been prescient in a lot of ways.

01:29:38.360 That's my next novel.

01:29:39.640 So, we'll talk about that more next year.

01:29:41.340 But here, no, it's an urgent problem now.

01:29:43.880 Look, my family were Orthodox Jews on my dad's side that escaped from Tsar Nicholas II when he was encouraging the killing and the raping of Jews in the 1900s.

01:29:55.260 Now, I see Vladimir Putin not as a Soviet-era guy, even though he was trained by the KGB, not as a, you know, he's not Hitler, he's not a fascist, but he is a Tsar.

01:30:06.620 He wants to rebuild the glory of Mother Russia, and that means imperialism. 0.74

01:30:12.420 That means taking back territory that he believes is his.

01:30:16.340 The guy has got no controls on him.

01:30:19.520 We did a poll, again, where I try to do some polling to sort of check on, spot check, where are we?

01:30:25.640 I write about these things, but, okay, what do the American people really think?

01:30:28.700 In January, we found that 71% of Americans believe that Putin is a clear and present danger.

01:30:35.100 This January, this last year.

01:30:36.000 This January.

01:30:36.860 Now, what's interesting is this was a bipartisan, well over the majority, who believed that Putin is a threat.

01:30:43.520 However, Democrats were higher, liberals were higher at seeing Russia and Putin as a threat than conservative Republicans.

01:30:51.520 Something is going on, and, again, my view is to take these concerns and then, rather than just write op-eds about them,

01:31:00.960 to sort of outflank and go into the popular culture and use novels to try to take people on a, again, an adventure ride,

01:31:10.680 where they're not planning to learn, but they are.

01:31:14.600 Are you more optimistic or less optimistic than you were five years ago?

01:31:20.220 Well, that's tough, because as a Russian Jew, I'm a pessimist by nature.

01:31:25.000 As an evangelical, I have hope.

01:31:29.100 So, look, when it comes to radical Islam, I'm encouraged by the current administration, the people that are in there, their seriousness.

01:31:36.700 When it comes to Russia, I'm getting nervous, but I want to believe that Mattis and Pence and Mike Pompeo, who's a friend,

01:31:46.260 and Dan Coates, these are good, serious people, the president is taking a weird approach towards Russia,

01:31:54.420 and I hope that that's a tactic.

01:31:58.060 So do we all.

01:31:59.160 But, you know, time will tell, right?

01:32:01.340 So do we all.

01:32:02.120 Joel Rosenberg, the name of the book is Without Warning.

01:32:05.840 You can get it in bookstores or Amazon.com, wherever you buy your books.

01:33:52.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:33:55.940 There is a great story at GlennBeck.com on the five possible outcomes for Judge Gorsuch and his confirmation process.

01:34:06.140 The Democrats roll over the nuclear option, the two-speech rule.

01:34:12.480 A Senate rule mandates the Senate can stay in the same legislative day until filibustering senators give up on their efforts.

01:34:18.180 It's essentially a way to tire out the filibuster and exhaust the objecting minority to run out the clock.

01:34:25.500 Confirmation then would only require the 51 votes.

01:34:29.600 Punt, while highly unlikely, this would occur for whatever reason.

01:34:32.820 President Trump withdraws the nomination, which I don't see him doing.

01:34:36.380 And then the fifth option, Democrats actually like Gorsuch.

01:34:42.220 He's a reasonable judge who was confirmed unanimously 10 years ago.

01:34:47.760 If Republicans and Gorsuch sway a handful of Democrats, he could push through the supermajority.

01:34:54.160 I think that's actually real likely.

01:34:57.520 I think he's just going to win.

01:34:59.000 Yeah.

01:34:59.420 Yeah.

01:34:59.720 I mean, I think it's going to be nominated.

01:35:01.660 I mean, or confirmed.

01:35:02.800 I mean, yeah, he's I mean, there's nothing that I have seen that is objectionable about this guy.

01:35:08.240 And I don't I don't think Americans are paying attention to it.

01:35:12.160 But you don't have anything on this guy.

01:35:14.900 How about the fact that he wants people to freeze to death when their trucks break down?

01:35:20.440 Talk about that.

01:35:21.620 Wait.

01:35:22.840 You know what?

01:35:23.520 It's really cold and you're and you're and your truck breaks down.

01:35:26.740 Yeah.

01:35:27.200 OK.

01:35:27.620 What do you what would you do in that situation?

01:35:29.960 This is what Al Franken asked him the other day.

01:35:32.220 And he said, what would you do in that situation?

01:35:34.440 Because he ruled on a case that this was a particular situation.

01:35:37.640 And then eventually, because he left the truck and went to, I guess, go warm up and came back.

01:35:43.600 They wound up firing him, the company. 0.97

01:35:46.700 And Neil Gorsuch said the company is allowed to fire people even when the reason is really dumb. 0.96

01:35:54.020 And you believe that? 0.98

01:35:55.400 What do you want him to freeze to death then?

01:35:58.120 He's frozen. 0.96

01:35:59.240 He wants people to die. 0.92

01:36:01.000 He's freezing people. 0.94

01:36:02.220 More importantly, he wants. 0.98

01:36:03.740 Neil Gorsuch wants people to die.

01:36:06.600 He wants people to have the charge over their own business so they can make decisions. 0.99

01:36:12.420 Crazy.

01:36:14.620 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:18.180 Mercury.

01:36:21.860 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:25.400 Hello, America.

01:36:26.620 Welcome to the program.

01:36:27.780 I would like you to call in right now and just answer this one question.

01:36:32.680 How do you want the Republicans to vote today on health care?

01:36:36.700 Repeal it or reject it?

01:36:40.340 Which which one?

01:36:41.700 Is that the choice?

01:36:43.160 Repeal what?

01:36:44.740 It's vote for the bill or don't vote for it.

01:36:46.780 Take the Trump care and vote for what you have or negotiate until the last minute but still take this or reject it.

01:37:01.000 And if Obamacare was Coke, this is Coke Zero.

01:37:05.260 Right?

01:37:05.460 It's just, it's Obamacare without caffeine.

01:37:08.220 That's all it is.

01:37:08.900 Well, Coke Zero has no calories.

01:37:10.260 It's a delicious product.

01:37:11.200 I love Coke Zero.

01:37:12.120 So I would not call it.

01:37:12.700 What number should I call it?

01:37:13.740 I would say the free market is Coke Zero.

01:37:16.020 There's actually a product in the middle.

01:37:17.280 All right, it's Tab.

01:37:17.960 It's Tab.

01:37:18.480 No, Tab's delicious.

01:37:19.440 Tab is not delicious.

01:37:21.320 What number should I call, Clev?

01:37:22.860 They still make it, by the way.

01:37:23.820 888-727-BECK, Jeffy.

01:37:27.360 888-727-BECK.

01:37:29.840 There's actually a weird, there's a Coke, there's a product called Coke Life.

01:37:35.000 Yes.

01:37:35.620 Have you ever had it?

01:37:36.820 What does it do?

01:37:37.660 It's Stevia.

01:37:38.300 It gives you life?

01:37:39.240 Well, sort of.

01:37:40.300 There's also, it has like, instead of zero calories, like a can of Coke is 150 calories.

01:37:45.000 A can of Coke Zero is zero calories.

01:37:47.700 A can of Coke Life, I think, is like 70 or 90 calories, maybe 60, something like that.

01:37:53.320 It's in between, and you think to yourself, well, why would I either have the real one,

01:37:58.840 or have the one where you're saying, okay, I'm going to sacrifice maybe a little taste

01:38:02.080 or whatever, and have zero calories.

01:38:04.360 Why would you go with the one that has like 60 or 70 calories? 1.00

01:38:07.460 And this is what we're saying about this stupid bill. 1.00

01:38:10.220 Yes, we got that. 1.00

01:38:11.620 There's a great soda reference here, and I think we found it.

01:38:14.240 I don't know if we've really found it, because we're starting with Coke.

01:38:19.220 This is like starting with Mr. Pibb.

01:38:22.760 You've got to start with Mr. Pibb.

01:38:24.580 You have to start with something bad.

01:38:25.360 You have to start with diet, Mr. Pibb.

01:38:27.560 Pibb Zero?

01:38:27.980 Is that what you're talking about, Mr. Pibb Zero?

01:38:29.360 You've got to start with diet, Mr. Pibb.

01:38:30.540 You actually have to start with a glass of urine.

01:38:33.280 And then work up to what?

01:38:36.000 Really urine from the most healthy person you can find.

01:38:42.760 It's still urine, gang.

01:38:44.380 Yeah, it is.

01:38:45.360 It's healthy, though.

01:38:46.280 It's healthy.

01:38:46.780 It's healthy urine.

01:38:47.800 I know.

01:38:47.980 The guy is perfect.

01:38:48.620 888-727-BCK.

01:38:50.400 Have you heard anyone who is, because a lot of people who are politicians are saying this

01:38:55.600 is going to happen, like Sean Spicer yesterday, this bill is going to happen tomorrow.

01:38:59.380 There is no plan B.

01:39:00.660 Like, that is what they're saying, because that's what they have to say.

01:39:03.440 But have you heard anyone who thinks this is actually a good bill?

01:39:06.320 I've heard a lot of people.

01:39:06.980 You're going to keep dancing around it.

01:39:08.180 Yeah, they don't.

01:39:08.880 They're doing exactly, even the advocates are doing what the Democrats always do.

01:39:12.600 Oh, it's not a perfect bill.

01:39:14.160 There's no perfect bill.

01:39:15.460 So, I'm so sick and tired of that excuse.

01:39:18.580 It's not a perfect bill.

01:39:19.660 Why didn't we, why don't you craft something much, much, much better, at least?

01:39:24.500 Theirs was, they got everything they wanted.

01:39:27.380 No, they didn't, they wanted a single-payer program.

01:39:29.140 No, no, no.

01:39:29.980 That's not what they, no, that's not what they set out for.

01:39:32.700 Public option.

01:39:33.520 That was not included in the final Obama campaign.

01:39:34.940 But that's not what they set out for.

01:39:36.560 Yes, they said they did want public option.

01:39:37.880 That was a big deal.

01:39:38.700 Yeah.

01:39:39.540 Now, Obama, during the campaign, said he didn't want it, which might be what you're remembering.

01:39:43.680 Yes, I mean, out in the public, they did not say that.

01:39:46.920 He said he did want that, he didn't want the mandate, which he got the mandate.

01:39:50.300 It's a very confusing process, as we all know.

01:39:52.320 Point being, though, it's like, it's not, you know, this is something that if, if we went

01:39:56.980 from our old system, direct, forget Obamacare for a second, if we went from our old system

01:40:01.860 to the GOP proposal, first of all, the GOP would never have proposed it.

01:40:06.440 No.

01:40:06.980 And secondly, Republicans would have fought it like crazy.

01:40:10.080 We all would have said, this is a glass of urine, and everybody would have said, no,

01:40:15.540 but it's from Johnny Unitas.

01:40:16.900 You put some pure cane sugar in it, but it's still urine.

01:40:21.300 I don't know why.

01:40:22.160 I don't want the pure cane sugar urine.

01:40:24.160 I don't want that.

01:40:24.660 I don't want it.

01:40:25.420 I don't want it.

01:40:26.180 No, but this is stevia.

01:40:26.900 Yeah, you upgraded from the stevia or whatever, and this is actual sugar, but I, no.

01:40:32.220 I'm sorry.

01:40:32.620 Not in that glass.

01:40:33.340 Let's go to Leslie.

01:40:35.380 Leslie, take the deal or reject it. 0.99

01:40:41.100 Reject it.

01:40:42.420 Did you vote for Trump?

01:40:43.920 Did you vote for Trump?

01:40:45.720 No, I didn't.

01:40:46.580 I voted third party.

01:40:48.080 Okay.

01:40:48.560 All right.

01:40:49.420 Thank you so much, Leslie.

01:40:51.080 Tony in Pennsylvania.

01:40:53.660 Take the deal or reject it?

01:40:57.720 They reject it.

01:40:58.840 Uh, I was a Donald Trump voter, uh, real quick.

01:41:03.440 Thanks for your history stuff.

01:41:04.920 I really enjoy it.

01:41:06.120 Thank you.

01:41:06.500 I listened to it with my 25 year old son who did not vote for Donald Trump.

01:41:11.500 Wow.

01:41:12.160 Wow.

01:41:12.700 Good.

01:41:13.120 Um, so, so, so you're saying reject this deal.

01:41:17.340 Yes.

01:41:17.920 Yeah.

01:41:18.900 Well, I say repeal and then don't do anything else.

01:41:21.880 Maybe I look down the line.

01:41:25.240 Okay.

01:41:25.480 No, no, no.

01:41:25.820 I'm just a wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:41:27.080 I'm specifically talking about this bill.

01:41:30.300 You're in Congress today. 0.99

01:41:32.800 Do you vote for the bill or you just say, no, this is garbage? 0.99

01:41:37.480 Uh, I'm going to say it's garbage because it doesn't do enough. 1.00

01:41:40.380 Now, Trump wants it. 0.98

01:41:41.320 Obviously Trump is using a lot of political capital to get this done.

01:41:44.980 Yeah.

01:41:45.360 He is, he is, he is, you know, trying to make a deal with the freedom caucus.

01:41:49.200 He's a master deal maker too.

01:41:50.880 I mean, I'll, I'll be surprised, honestly, because this way it always happens.

01:41:53.760 I'll be really surprised if they don't pass it because, because even though we're hearing

01:41:57.560 they don't have the votes, they always come up with the votes to pass a bad bill.

01:42:01.100 I don't, somehow Congress always makes the bad bill happen.

01:42:04.820 Yeah.

01:42:05.020 There's never a chance.

01:42:06.240 Good bills.

01:42:07.020 It never happens.

01:42:08.500 Bad bills.

01:42:09.300 They always find the votes.

01:42:10.260 We have no votes.

01:42:11.940 Everybody.

01:42:12.340 Everybody, it's like they've all been vaporized.

01:42:15.040 We can't find them.

01:42:16.400 The voting begins.

01:42:17.320 They all vote for it.

01:42:18.400 And the thing about Trump, which if you want this bill passed as a real positive, is he

01:42:23.460 doesn't have a real ideological tie to anything in this bill.

01:42:29.060 He wants to get rid of Obamacare and he wants to fulfill the campaign promise.

01:42:32.140 Yeah, I think he wants to get it done.

01:42:33.160 But like, you know, the fact for him, like this regulation or this regulation stays or goes

01:42:37.240 isn't incredibly important to him.

01:42:38.900 So he's willing to bend on that stuff to get something done.

01:42:42.100 Now, that's I don't I'm not particularly excited about that.

01:42:44.920 But if you if you like Trump and you like this bill, I think there's a real argument

01:42:48.080 that, you know, hey, this this might happen because of those things.

01:42:52.020 Let me go to Jim in Ohio.

01:42:53.180 Hello, Jim.

01:42:55.200 Hey, Glenn.

01:42:55.900 Thanks for taking my call.

01:42:56.840 You bet.

01:42:58.320 Yeah, I would vote for.

01:43:01.320 Wait, hang on.

01:43:02.720 Is that Dick Cheney?

01:43:03.840 Have we lost you, Jim?

01:43:05.120 Are you there?

01:43:06.540 I think he said he was going to vote for it.

01:43:08.580 Sure sounded like Marissa in Pennsylvania. 0.96

01:43:11.840 Hello, Marissa.

01:43:13.760 Hey, everybody.

01:43:14.660 Thank you for taking my call.

01:43:15.860 Sure.

01:43:16.020 And I I would say tell Paul Ryan to pound salt. 1.00

01:43:19.820 Reject it because it's junk. 1.00

01:43:22.820 It's junk. 1.00

01:43:23.940 I don't know how Paul Ryan is. 1.00

01:43:25.900 We've been waiting.

01:43:27.100 We've been waiting for so very long to do this.

01:43:29.680 Republicans have been talking about it for forever.

01:43:32.000 It feels like.

01:43:32.920 And this is what they came up with.

01:43:34.320 And it's my eight year old could have done a better job at writing a repeal and a replacement.

01:43:39.180 Do you do you feel betrayed by what the promises were during the election?

01:43:45.000 Not particularly because I didn't have too much faith in what Donald Trump was talking about anyway.

01:43:50.020 Look, I'm glad that he's able to get in there and get Obamacare.

01:43:55.040 At least it's at least it's coming up and it'll get to his desk for a vote.

01:43:59.180 I mean, for eight years, we couldn't even get that far.

01:44:02.060 So I guess this is progress.

01:44:03.920 But in but I don't have much faith or I don't have very high expectations of Republicans in general or in Donald Trump in particular,

01:44:13.300 in terms of being a conservative, because he's not.

01:44:16.680 And for the most part, nobody in Congress, none of the Republicans are conservative.

01:44:21.100 I always appreciated Rand Paul and Mike Lee and Ted Cruz way better than Donald Trump, of course.

01:44:28.860 And and either one of those men would have done by far and away a better job at getting a better looking bill.

01:44:35.860 But at least Donald Trump, I mean, you've got to give him credit where credit is due.

01:44:39.680 So he's at least getting something started.

01:44:42.940 But it's only a beginning.

01:44:44.500 It's this is the very infancy stage.

01:44:46.180 This cannot be the final the final replacement.

01:44:49.940 Thanks, Marissa.

01:44:50.760 I appreciate it.

01:44:51.360 What's interesting is they passed something much, much, much better than this a couple of years ago.

01:44:55.320 Oh, yeah.

01:44:55.640 When they knew it wouldn't go through.

01:44:57.060 When they knew it wouldn't go through, they passed it much better.

01:44:59.360 Go ahead, Gary.

01:45:00.860 Hey, Glenn, this is a simple thing.

01:45:03.020 OK, repeal only.

01:45:05.620 Set it back to the states via the 10th Amendment and be done. 0.89

01:45:09.680 I'm good with it.

01:45:11.740 I'm good with that.

01:45:13.420 So you're saying today if you were in Congress, you'd say no to this bill.

01:45:17.500 No to this bill.

01:45:18.860 Send it back to the states.

01:45:20.460 It's not an enumerated powers under the federal constitution and be done with it.

01:45:25.840 Thanks a lot, Gary.

01:45:26.540 Appreciate it.

01:45:27.120 Let me go to Mike in Pennsylvania.

01:45:29.000 Hello, Mike.

01:45:30.340 It's unconstitutional.

01:45:32.320 Reject it.

01:45:33.300 Thank you very much.

01:45:34.680 That was like that was a guy from like the CIA saying. 0.99

01:45:38.860 And, you know, I'm coming to kill you at three. 1.00

01:45:42.600 Reject it. 0.99

01:45:44.160 By the way, Massey made this argument on the air with us yesterday.

01:45:47.260 Thomas Massey from Kentucky who said, look, this is supposed to be a negotiation.

01:45:52.300 And if the negotiation doesn't really start until one side says no.

01:45:57.520 And if conservatives say no, they're going to have to come back to the table and try to figure out how to make this acceptable to conservatives, which is a big difference from what they have now.

01:46:07.080 Whether you can get that stuff by the Senate is a whole nother issue.

01:46:09.740 But that's not the House's responsibility.

01:46:11.560 The House's responsibility is to pass the best bill possible.

01:46:14.520 You can figure out the details later.

01:46:16.400 But instead, they're trying to manipulate all these moderates to vote for it and try to make it this thing that everyone can accept.

01:46:23.300 It's like, well, pass the right thing.

01:46:25.300 Why don't you pass the right thing?

01:46:26.460 And if you have to back off of the right thing later, then maybe that has to happen to get the votes.

01:46:32.720 However, why not start with the right thing?

01:46:35.700 Why not begin with, I don't know.

01:46:37.180 Well, let's reach for the stars.

01:46:39.640 Why not go for it?

01:46:41.260 When are you going to have this opportunity again?

01:46:43.160 Should you keep your feet on the ground?

01:46:44.400 I wouldn't.

01:46:45.040 I just keep reaching for the stars and then float off into space until your head pops.

01:46:50.380 That's a bet. 0.99

01:46:51.140 Either that or stay here on Earth and continue to watch this nonsense.

01:46:54.100 That's not what Casey Kasem recommended.

01:46:54.840 I know.

01:46:55.440 He didn't have to live in these times, did he now?

01:46:57.700 No, he didn't.

01:46:58.240 No, he didn't.

01:46:58.880 He died before we got here.

01:47:00.160 Before we got here.

01:47:00.940 So he was like, keep your feet on the ground.

01:47:02.920 I prefer reach for the stars, float off into space until your head pops.

01:48:09.720 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:48:13.260 You know, we're just sitting here talking about if we had to vote one way or another, I would

01:48:28.020 vote, I don't care.

01:48:29.340 I know.

01:48:30.300 I don't care.

01:48:30.940 I don't care.

01:48:31.600 You're going to screw it up in the end, dude.

01:48:33.240 Yeah, I mean, if they reject it, you know they're going to screw it up later.

01:48:38.900 If they do it, they're going to screw it up.

01:48:41.640 Right.

01:48:41.760 Even if it turns out to be good, they're going to screw it up.

01:48:45.480 So it's just like, why care?

01:48:47.300 We're so politically dead inside.

01:48:49.220 No, it's so dead inside.

01:48:50.280 We've just been so beaten over the last year and a half that it's like, whatever.

01:48:53.620 Because there's nobody good to root for.

01:48:55.320 Right.

01:48:55.820 Mike Lee is the only guy that is really untarnished in my head.

01:49:00.860 Yeah.

01:49:01.100 Now, I know there's other guys, but he's the only one that always comes to mind.

01:49:07.060 Yeah.

01:49:07.560 Is the only guy that I'm like, okay, well, Mike Lee, I trust him.

01:49:10.960 Yeah.

01:49:11.700 I think it's a healthy thing, though, honestly.

01:49:13.780 It's like the ability to be able to just let this stuff go, man, it makes your life better.

01:49:19.960 It does.

01:49:20.160 I don't know.

01:49:20.740 I mean, in a purely selfish way, I don't live and die by this stuff anymore.

01:49:26.480 I don't.

01:49:26.960 Nope.

01:49:27.360 You know?

01:49:28.020 And I'm also able, I have no, like, I want these bills to be good.

01:49:32.220 And I want our taxes to go down.

01:49:33.520 And I want people to have better health care and have regulation.

01:49:36.780 But you know none of that's going to happen.

01:49:37.860 I have no faith in any of them to accomplish it.

01:49:41.020 It's not going to happen.

01:49:41.720 So it's like, I just let it go.

01:49:42.660 I read all the stuff I'm supposed to read.

01:49:44.760 I do all the work.

01:49:46.220 Yes.

01:49:46.340 And then I get to the end of it and I'm like, whatever.

01:49:49.100 Yep.

01:49:49.740 I mean, there's just, I just don't, I just don't care anymore.

01:49:54.740 When it comes to politics, I don't care.

01:49:56.640 You don't know how many times I've said that this week.

01:49:58.780 About 800 times.

01:49:59.960 I just don't care.

01:50:02.360 My brother was visiting and he's super into the political stuff right now.

01:50:06.760 And he'd ask me stuff about it.

01:50:09.860 I don't care.

01:50:11.420 I just don't care.

01:50:13.580 That's really bad.

01:50:16.040 It's really bad.

01:50:18.120 Especially in our line of work.

01:50:20.080 I just want to point that out.

01:50:21.320 But like you said, we're still doing the work.

01:50:23.600 We're still looking into it.

01:50:25.040 No, I'm still informed.

01:50:25.480 I'm still researching it.

01:50:26.820 Still writing all the stuff.

01:50:28.320 Still talking about it.

01:50:29.340 I can't watch the news.

01:50:30.440 I watch clips.

01:50:31.380 I can't watch Fox News at all anymore.

01:50:33.360 No, I can't watch any news.

01:50:34.860 I read a lot, but I can't watch any news.

01:50:38.820 I go home.

01:50:39.260 My father-in-law has all the news channels.

01:50:40.960 I mean, he runs through all the news channels.

01:50:42.720 So I catch bits and pieces of them.

01:50:44.780 I can't.

01:50:45.820 I can't sit down and look at it.

01:50:47.480 I can't.

01:50:48.300 I can't.

01:50:49.000 And by the way, when you do analysis of these things, the best thing to do is to not have

01:50:53.540 emotion tied to them.

01:50:55.460 Oh, yeah.

01:50:55.840 No, our analysis will be much better.

01:50:58.160 I'm absolutely Mr. Spock right now.

01:50:59.880 Oh, yeah.

01:51:01.040 Oh, yeah.

01:51:02.000 I am spot.

01:51:02.980 Oh, yeah.

01:51:03.540 We could say they're voting today and they're going to vote to vaporize half of Congress.

01:51:09.800 That's fascinating.

01:51:11.220 Not vaporize half of Congress.

01:51:12.620 That's fascinating.

01:51:14.240 Pure energy.

01:51:15.620 Pure energy.

01:51:16.820 It's totally fascinating.

01:51:19.800 I have no emotion over that.

01:51:23.420 I'll be vaporized.

01:51:26.140 Removing the emotion from those moments actually helps your analysis.

01:51:30.140 It does.

01:51:30.880 It does.

01:51:31.900 Because someone tweeted to me the other day of like, well, would you guys care about politics

01:51:36.140 if Ted Cruz was president?

01:51:38.040 Probably more.

01:51:39.000 More.

01:51:39.340 And you know what?

01:51:39.880 And that might not help our analysis.

01:51:41.860 You know, I probably would have more of a rooting interest and that wouldn't help.

01:51:45.040 Part of it is how beaten we've been by the whole situation and the whole, I mean, we had

01:51:51.880 17 candidates and they picked number 17.

01:51:57.740 But it doesn't just start from that.

01:51:59.660 It really doesn't.

01:52:00.300 No, no.

01:52:00.880 It's just the last eight years.

01:52:03.200 And before that, the last four years of the clip, no matter what you say, they picked

01:52:07.940 number 17.

01:52:08.260 Eight of them.

01:52:09.060 Eight.

01:52:09.720 Were fully acceptable to us.

01:52:11.500 I mean, let's just go back.

01:52:12.480 Eight.

01:52:12.560 Let's not.

01:52:13.240 Let's just go back to Fahrenheit 9-1-1.

01:52:16.100 We've been doing this and actually caring since Michael Moore was fatter than me.

01:52:25.100 It's been that long. 1.00

01:52:26.560 The Florida election, the stupid Chads. 1.00

01:52:29.440 I mean, that was a very. 1.00

01:52:31.740 Yeah, the hanging Chads.

01:52:33.320 By the way, that was a joke.

01:52:34.280 The one person who did not laugh at it was your wife.

01:52:38.960 Just to point that out.

01:52:39.920 She's going, yeah, he is fatter than Michael Moore now.

01:52:41.480 No, he is actually.

01:52:42.560 In fact, that whole room is fatter than Michael Moore now.

01:52:47.180 You look at Michael Moore now, like, he's looking pretty good.

01:52:50.680 He's lost some weight.

01:52:52.040 Was he tripped up since it was?

01:52:54.020 What happened to him?

01:52:55.500 I mean, I remember it being side-by-side pictures on the TV and me looking bad.

01:53:01.960 He looks pretty good.

01:53:04.260 What happened to him?

01:53:05.380 That's interesting.

01:53:06.020 That's fascinating.

01:53:06.960 That's fascinating.

01:53:07.540 Pure energy.

01:53:08.160 Pure energy.

01:53:08.920 Don't care.

01:53:09.380 Don't care.

01:53:09.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:53:17.620 Mercury.

01:53:18.340 Oh, man.
