The Glenn Beck Program - 3⧸29⧸17 - Full Show

00:00:00.940 This is the Blaze Radio On Demand.

00:00:04.960 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:06.840 Got a great show for you today.

00:00:08.040 I've got a couple of items from the vault that we just got in yesterday.

00:00:11.980 One of them is just so tremendous.

00:00:15.040 It's a letter from Calvin Coolidge,

00:00:17.300 who we were just talking about as we get ready to go on the air.

00:00:20.400 The guys have not heard the letter yet.

00:00:21.860 I'm going to share it with them together with you.

00:00:25.400 Calvin Coolidge, how outrageous is it,

00:00:28.560 now that we've all done our homework on Calvin Coolidge,

00:00:31.140 how outrageous is it to say the best presidents in the United States

00:00:34.900 may be George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Calvin Coolidge?

00:00:42.160 Not outrageous at all.

00:00:43.280 No.

00:00:43.860 I mean...

00:00:44.460 Not at all.

00:00:45.080 Not at all.

00:00:45.820 This guy is so underrated, and nobody knows him.

00:00:49.240 Nobody knows him.

00:00:49.860 You want the answer on how to fix things?

00:00:51.640 Go to Calvin Coolidge.

00:00:54.260 We're going to talk about that.

00:00:55.780 I've got something that I said to the Mercury librarian

00:01:02.080 for the American experience and the human experience.

00:01:06.700 I said...

00:01:07.680 I read one line in a book I was reading.

00:01:10.460 I said,

00:01:10.840 We have to see if we can find one of these.

00:01:14.460 Well, we did.

00:01:16.740 I can't believe we did.

00:01:19.480 And I'm going to show you something you've never even known of.

00:01:28.220 Coming up in just a few minutes.

00:01:29.860 Stand by for that.

00:01:30.780 Also, we have Bill O'Reilly on the program today.

00:01:34.440 We have Matt Walsh who's going to stop by.

00:01:36.480 We have part two of the true history of the Democratic Party.

00:01:41.120 And we're going to start with where we left it off yesterday in the first hour,

00:01:47.000 and that is the future.

00:01:49.420 Elon Musk has a billion-dollar crusade to stop what he calls the AI apocalypse.

00:01:56.480 This is something that you, as a guy who works in a cubicle,

00:02:04.560 a guy who runs his own business, a salesperson, a farmer,

00:02:09.040 you need to understand what we are facing as human beings in the next 10 to 20 years.

00:02:16.560 Because everything changes with this.

00:02:20.240 And some of the smartest people in the world are warning,

00:02:23.800 don't do it.

00:02:25.480 People of the world, wake up.

00:02:27.880 Don't do it.

00:02:29.800 We begin there with Elon Musk's new billion-dollar strategy to save the world.

00:02:39.880 It's going to sound crazy.

00:02:41.700 We begin there right now.

00:02:42.820 I will make a stand.

00:02:46.040 I will raise my voice.

00:02:48.500 I will hold your hand.

00:02:50.760 Because we are one.

00:02:52.720 I will beat my drum.

00:02:54.960 I have made my choice.

00:02:57.240 We will overcome.

00:02:59.520 Because we are one.

00:03:01.600 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:03:05.400 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:08.960 I want to share something with you that is going to sound absolutely crazy.

00:03:18.260 Much more crazy than when I said, we're going to be able to print everything.

00:03:22.400 We're going to be able to print organs.

00:03:24.680 We're going to be able to print guns.

00:03:26.580 Remember when I brought the 3D printer on about four years ago? 0.99

00:03:29.880 And we were printing little stupid things. 0.75

00:03:32.280 And I remember, I don't remember who it was, one of the cameramen. 0.99

00:03:35.740 It was Justin, right?

00:03:36.980 One of the cameramen was on and he just shook his head and I printed a little Batman head for him. 0.95

00:03:43.180 And he was like, this is ridiculous. 0.61

00:03:44.880 We're not going to be able to print these things.

00:03:46.540 I mean, okay, sci-fi and we're going to get flying cars too.

00:03:51.320 And a year later, we had a guy on the show who gave us a printed, 3D printed gun that works.

00:03:59.640 The world is changing.

00:04:01.420 And what this is going to sound like is you're either a Luddite and you don't want technology, which is not true.

00:04:11.000 I don't think there's any way to stop this.

00:04:13.200 I think Elon Musk is right on his approach.

00:04:16.540 Or it just sounds so like a movie, like Terminator, that you're fighting robots.

00:04:25.420 And I want you to know that you shouldn't fear the robots.

00:04:30.080 That's not what I'm saying.

00:04:32.560 I want you to hear a story that is on Elon Musk and his billion dollar crusade to stop the AI apocalypse.

00:04:42.980 That's the headline.

00:04:44.020 It starts with a story that I gave you yesterday in hour number one of this broadcast.

00:04:50.660 And it's Elon Musk and it's Demi, Demi, what's his name?

00:05:00.300 Hasibus.

00:05:01.820 And Demi and Elon are having lunch at SpaceX.

00:05:08.740 And Elon says, I'm working on this is the most important project for all of humanity right now.

00:05:19.600 His trip to Mars.

00:05:22.160 Pat doesn't even think that trip to Mars is going to happen.

00:05:25.000 It will.

00:05:26.700 I'm telling you now, we will colonize Mars and it won't be done by a government.

00:05:31.960 It will be done by Elon Musk.

00:05:34.180 And here's why.

00:05:38.200 Demi says, no, you're not working on the most important project.

00:05:42.220 I am.

00:05:43.220 Now, he's in charge of DeepMind.

00:05:46.600 DeepMind is the Google project that is gobbling up every everybody who's working on AI.

00:05:57.300 Artificial superintelligence.

00:06:00.900 And they are racing.

00:06:03.500 Google and DeepMind are racing to artificial intelligence.

00:06:08.700 Now, artificial intelligence is going to be fantastic.

00:06:11.920 We will, through artificial intelligence, we're going to be able to figure out cures to cancer.

00:06:16.580 It's so far beyond any supercomputer.

00:06:20.700 It will be able to learn itself.

00:06:23.580 You won't have to program.

00:06:25.060 You won't have to build it.

00:06:26.700 It will build itself.

00:06:28.340 It will teach itself.

00:06:30.100 It's true artificial intelligence.

00:06:33.100 It is living intelligence.

00:06:37.400 And it will be so far.

00:06:38.780 We will look like mice to this intelligence.

00:06:42.640 He said, Demi said, well, no, no, no.

00:06:48.820 I'm working on the most important project for humankind.

00:06:52.080 I'm working on artificial superintelligence.

00:06:54.520 And that's when Elon Musk said, no, the reason why I'm going to Mars is to make sure there's a human outpost because you're going to get us all killed.

00:07:04.740 Now, as crazy as that sounds, these conversations are happening.

00:07:11.580 And they're happening a lot in Silicon Valley with some of the smartest people out there.

00:07:19.360 People who agree with Elon Musk that this could be the end of all humanity within the next 40 years are Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking and a long list of others.

00:07:31.760 But those are pretty prominent guys.

00:07:35.480 So, if you read this story, let me just give you a couple of them.

00:07:40.100 Some in Silicon Valley were intrigued to learn that Hossibus, a skilled chess player and former video game designer, once came up with a game called Evil Genius, featuring an evil scientist who creates a doomsday device to achieve world domination.

00:07:58.920 Peter Thiel, the billionaire venture capitalist, Donald Trump advisor who co-founded PayPal with Musk and others, and who in December helped gather skeptical Silicon Valley titans, including Musk, to meet with Donald Trump, told me a story about an investor in DeepMind who joked as he left a meeting.

00:08:18.280 Quote, does anybody else feel like we ought to shoot Hossibus now because we're approaching our last chance to save the human race? 0.97

00:08:31.800 Elon Musk began warning about the possibility of AI running amok three years ago, probably hadn't eased his mind when one of Hossibus' partners in DeepMind, Shane Legg, stated flatly,

00:08:42.880 hey, I think human extinction will probably occur and this technology will play a part in it.

00:08:53.080 Okay, so wait, wait, wait, shouldn't we put the brakes on that?

00:08:56.460 I mean, if somebody said that in your office and other great minds around the world were saying the same thing,

00:09:05.080 wouldn't it be time for you to say, hey, guys, can we just stop for a second?

00:09:10.160 I oddly do work in an office where someone says that fairly regularly, just so we can point that out.

00:09:15.060 Okay, all right, well.

00:09:16.400 You do? Where's that?

00:09:17.220 I don't know. Weird.

00:09:19.760 Before DeepMind was gobbled up by Google in 2014 as part of its Google AI shopping spree, Musk had been an investor in DeepMind.

00:09:27.940 He told me that his involvement was not about a return on his money, but rather to keep a wary eye on the arc of AI.

00:09:35.000 It gave me more visibility into the rate at which things are improving.

00:09:38.460 I think they're improving at an accelerating rate far faster than anybody realizes, mostly because in everyday life, you don't see robots walking around.

00:09:49.580 Maybe you're Roomba or something, but a Roomba is not going to take over the world. 0.70

00:09:56.780 In a startling public reproach to his friends and fellow techies, Musk warned that they could be creating the means of their very own destruction.

00:10:03.460 He told Bloomberg's Ashley Vance, the author of the biography of Elon Musk, that he was afraid that his friend Larry Page, the co-founder of Google and now the CEO of its parent company, Alphabet,

00:10:14.880 could have perfectly good intentions but still produce something very evil by accident, including possibly a fleet of artificial intelligence-enhanced robots capable of destroying all of mankind.

00:10:26.820 Sometimes what will happen is scientists will get so engrossed in their work that they really don't realize the ramifications of what they're doing.

00:10:37.280 Having some sort of merger with biological intelligence and machine intelligence, it may be the way to escape human obsolescence, a Vulcan mind meld, if you will.

00:10:54.860 We're basically already there. We're already cyborgs.

00:10:59.500 Your phone and your computer are extensions of you, but the interface is through finger movements or speech, which are very slow.

00:11:06.780 We're now looking at a neural interlace, a lace inside of your skull that would flash data from your brain wirelessly to your digital devices

00:11:16.000 or to virtually any unlimited computing power in the cloud for a means of partial brain interface.

00:11:23.600 We are roughly four years away from that.

00:11:31.120 Four years away from...

00:11:34.340 Thinking and it doing.

00:11:37.300 So you're not touching a screen.

00:11:38.820 You're not touching anything.

00:11:40.160 You're just thinking, I want the temperature to go up in this room.

00:11:42.740 And it goes up.

00:11:44.220 What?

00:11:44.720 Okay, yes.

00:11:45.620 That's going to be the most out.

00:11:46.560 Four years?

00:11:46.980 We're four years away.

00:11:48.460 Did anybody see the article yesterday that came out?

00:11:52.120 No way.

00:11:52.400 For the first time, somebody now has received the first real bionic legs that it operates exactly like your legs do.

00:12:08.160 You think and it does.

00:12:09.760 Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.

00:12:11.000 Right.

00:12:11.180 Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.

00:12:13.560 I saw that documentary.

00:12:15.520 Yeah.

00:12:16.020 Others, you have to start moving.

00:12:18.660 You have to start moving and get it to move for you.

00:12:23.420 This is now bionic.

00:12:25.160 I believe they were legs.

00:12:27.160 That as you think, it happens.

00:12:30.660 And they have them now with hands.

00:12:32.800 Are people being fitted with those?

00:12:34.360 Yes.

00:12:34.840 Are they really?

00:12:35.400 first one was fitted and it's working now and that was a story yesterday yeah that's that's so

00:12:41.320 what's the difference between that and this can we quickly point out that if you can think i want

00:12:46.620 the temperature to be higher in this room the divorce rate is going to be 100 of this country

00:12:51.160 my wife and i are thermostatically incompatible he went on and said with artificial intelligence

00:12:58.900 we are summoning a demon you know all those stories where there's the guy with the pentagram

00:13:04.160 and the holy water and he's like yeah yeah yeah no i'm listen we can control the demon i'm just

00:13:09.660 going to call it forth it doesn't work out said musk um uh let's see musk is stoic stoic about his

00:13:21.100 setbacks but all too conscious of nightmare scenarios man has the power to act as his own destroyer

00:13:28.420 and that is the way he's acted through most of history we are the first species capable of

00:13:34.300 self-annihilation here's the nagging thought that you can't escape as you drive around from glass box

00:13:40.860 to glass box in silicon valley the lords of the cloud love to yammer about turning the world into

00:13:48.320 a better place as they churn out new algorithms apps and inventions that it is claimed will make

00:13:54.680 our lives easier healthier funny closer closer cooler longer and kinder to the planet and yet

00:14:02.000 as you drive around after these meetings there's a creepy feeling underneath it all a sense that we are

00:14:08.760 the mice in their experiments that they regard us humans as beta maxes or eight tracks old technology

00:14:18.140 that will soon be discarded so they can get on with enjoying their new sleek world many people have

00:14:26.300 already accepted this future we'll live to be 150 years old but we'll have machine overlords they argue

00:14:35.160 not about weather but rather how close we are to replicating improving and replacing ourselves sam altman the

00:14:45.820 31 year old president of y combinator the valley's top start accelerator believes humanity is on the

00:14:50.960 brink of such invention the hardest part of standing on an exponential curve is when you look backward it

00:14:57.620 looks flat when you look forward it looks vertical it's hard to calibrate how much you're moving because

00:15:04.480 it always looks the same you'd think that anytime musk steven hawking and bill gates are raising the same

00:15:12.680 warning about ai as all of them are it would be a 10 alarm fire but for a long time the fog of fatalism

00:15:21.820 over bay area was thick musk's crusade was viewed as a luddite uh view the paradox i mean elon musk is not

00:15:31.920 a luddite no i think that's pretty clear the paradox is this many tech oligarchs see everything they're doing

00:15:38.880 to help us and all of their benevolent manifestos as street lamps on the road to a future where as steve wozniak says

00:15:47.740 humans are the street lamps pets musk is not going gently he plans on fighting this with every fiber of his carbon-based 0.93

00:15:58.580 being musk and altman have founded open ai now this is the way to solve it

00:16:03.940 open ai a billion dollar non-profit company to work for safer artificial intelligence his view is

00:16:12.220 nobody's gonna be able to stop this nobody's gonna be able to stop this you cannot put the genie back

00:16:18.460 in the bottle and we're going to start having people within 10 years that are uploading and are 0.99

00:16:25.420 transhumans they are um what's called transhumanism as we're talking about the stupid gender and what 1.00

00:16:33.880 you feel like today forget about all that nonsense transhumanism is real and it will happen in the 1.00

00:16:42.040 next 10 years where you will merge with machines he believes that the problem is not um not robots

00:16:53.420 the problem is a i merging on the internet now we saw a documentary with um arnold schwarzenegger

00:17:05.120 yeah where at first you thought that it was the terminator robot that was the problem and then later

00:17:13.060 uh it was skynet it was skynet we should have known it was skynet that's what he says is the problem

00:17:19.400 we'll get back into this here in a second i will raise my voice i will hold your hand

00:17:25.820 the glenn deck program mercury

00:17:31.980 the glenn deck program oh no i i can't take it i can't take it you know i i am full in on ai we're

00:17:47.600 going back to musk here in a second i am full in on super intelligence i will even be the pet i will

00:17:53.940 serve skynet if it will fix my television i cannot get i can't i it's i'm ready to go back to cable

00:18:05.560 what's wrong with it oh i have the remote control um won't control won't won't work with apple sometimes

00:18:13.480 it doesn't work with uh the cable uh you know sometimes it doesn't turn the tv on at all

00:18:21.180 sometimes it'll turn everything on but won't turn on the apple box i've obviously had people out to

00:18:27.420 try to fix it oh i can't tell you how many thousands i have probably dumped in this i just

00:18:33.100 just give me a knob just give me a knob or skynet i will serve you skynet i will serve you tvs

00:18:39.780 aren't going to work but the ai thing is going to turn out really it's going to be really good

00:18:43.480 really good yeah

00:18:44.980 the glenn deck program we're talking about something um and if you missed yesterday's show

00:19:05.520 go back and listen to the podcast at glennbeck.com hour one of yesterday's show you're you heard the

00:19:12.140 setup this is about elon musk and his billion dollar um public service it's a non-profit

00:19:20.280 he's dumped a billion dollars into trying to get ai before google deep mind gets it because

00:19:30.420 he's afraid if we don't put the algorithms out for everyone

00:19:36.200 it will become proprietary and google will own artificial intelligence and it's one company

00:19:45.660 and you better hope that they're benevolent

00:19:49.140 well their their slogan is don't be evil don't be evil so they can't be evil right because that's

00:19:56.320 their whole motto now what the real fear here is like you keep saying it's not robots we're not

00:20:02.480 we're not talking about robots taking over the over the world it's the internet right i mean if ai

00:20:09.380 takes control of the internet they could shut down everything let's just play this out and this is

00:20:14.520 and this is my problem the the number war games the documentary uh 1980 was not uh oh my gosh that

00:20:21.480 they almost started a nuclear war almost started nuclear they were on the verge of it right and it 0.97

00:20:26.120 wasn't for one scrappy high school student that wasn't a documentary he was he really was so here's

00:20:31.380 the here's the problem um the leading minds steven hawking a guy who can do three-dimensional

00:20:39.980 calculations in his head um uh bill gates and elon musk those are the the smart guys smart guys

00:20:50.140 the head guy of deep mind uh ray kurzweil uh singularity university uh and uh steve wozniak

00:21:01.100 all three smart guys steve wozniak has blown this off and said i don't mind being a pet

00:21:09.780 well i do and what what everyone's intention is and what you have to understand

00:21:16.520 we cannot thing to say i know you don't mind being a pet i know we can't right now decide what

00:21:24.160 life is right we can't decide when life starts right and we don't know when life ends yeah

00:21:29.540 in reading another book called um homo deus which i urge you to read a lot of it you will disagree with

00:21:38.760 i know i do um um at least the parts of where i'm at i think it's all going to come together

00:21:45.540 it's 2017 i will not read something i disagree with i will not oh yeah strong you're right

00:21:51.840 you're right in a safe space you're right okay good he won't hear um but it is a it's a book that

00:21:57.780 talks about um it talks about artificial intelligence and it talks about what's coming it's a futurist

00:22:03.200 book and um and so it gets into the the real technology of what is coming but it is also trying

00:22:11.140 to explain why we have to understand humans and our past because we are the ones creating this

00:22:21.240 and we're not necessarily always benevolent and look at the way we view animals we want to be good

00:22:29.400 to animals but are we really because we're eating them so we're creating something i want to i want to

00:22:37.140 to be to be treated nicely before i eat them right before i kill them and correct i i do want that

00:22:42.620 correct correct and so maybe a good thing hopefully artificial intelligence isn't going to be biological

00:22:50.220 so it won't be hungry um but the the point of it is is that we can't even decide on what life is

00:23:00.500 and we're creating artificial intelligence so then man can do whatever he wants to do

00:23:07.560 and it will serve us well if it is super intelligent far more intelligent than us

00:23:14.960 are you going to serve some dummy that you can out think i think where the disconnect is with a lot

00:23:22.580 of people is this just seems too like frank cars yeah it just it's there we know there's not super

00:23:27.940 intelligence yet artificially and so we're not worried about it because we haven't we haven't

00:23:32.640 seen it if this were glenn beck on the radio saying these things you should dismiss it yeah but

00:23:37.800 because he's great steven hawking elon musk bill gates that does seem to legitimize it a tad it does

00:23:46.240 yeah and this is much more real you know when we talk about global warming that's a hundred years

00:23:52.240 down the road this is 10 to 20 years glenn catastrophic global warming is happening right now

00:24:01.200 so reading that's that is what they say reading this reading um elon musk doing my homework on this

00:24:10.080 and reading one of the books i'm reading is um uh homo deus which means

00:24:17.280 you know god and man is one man becomes god that seems like a different view than we're pets of the

00:24:27.040 lamppost because it is the first thing remember there are three things that really drive people um what

00:24:37.280 drive people is escape from pain yeah pleasure deity okay escape from pain pleasure deity jeffy i mean

00:24:49.820 that that describes jeffy's life i'm 100 for everything you just said i don't know what the

00:24:54.040 problem is right so we are now silicon valley is now in the deity move mode here let me let me read

00:25:01.200 musk's words what if we just attach three laws to them to all that was a movie again

00:25:07.200 i've had very i've had many conversations with larry page um about ai and robotics is that the guy

00:25:15.840 we've talked to a number of times no larry's a different it's a different guy um and some of

00:25:22.100 them have gotten quite heated many many quite heated you know i think it's not just larry but there

00:25:29.380 are many futurists who feel a certain inevitability or fatalism about robots where we'd have some sort of

00:25:36.080 peripheral role the phrase the phrase used is we are the biological bootloader for digital super

00:25:44.180 intelligence now what is a bootloader do you know what a bootloader is no this is really scary

00:25:51.360 a computer can't turn itself on a bootloader is the small program that runs to first start the computer

00:26:02.820 computer so these people who are designing this say humans are the bootloader we are the ones that

00:26:13.220 will create the first program that will say run and then it's not useful anymore

00:26:20.420 um matter can't organize itself into a chip but it can organize itself into a biological entity

00:26:31.780 that gets increasingly sophisticated and ultimately will create the chips it's great when the emperor is

00:26:39.700 marcus aurelius it's not so great when the emperor is caligula caligula um he said uh this is no

00:26:50.080 scientific so no science fiction fantasy oh you digital techie people you're like gods you're creating

00:26:58.320 life you're transforming reality there's a tremendous narcissism in it with the people who can do it

00:27:05.140 no one else the pope can't do it the president can't do it no one can do it the software we're building is

00:27:13.060 our immorality this kind of god-like ambition isn't new i've read it once in the story about the golden calf

00:27:21.620 i have to tell you in reading the warnings from these guys and reading up about this and seeing

00:27:29.900 the way they talk about themselves they are talking about man becoming god soon and this is our deity

00:27:38.520 moment and i've read about that too and that was the tower of babel and here's what you here's one of

00:27:47.660 the things that you have to consider pat says with absolute certainty what on artificial intelligence

00:27:57.360 being able to say i'm life and us it's not okay that's not it doesn't have a soul right and and

00:28:07.560 we never you say we'll never actually be able to create that why because we're not gods and we can't

00:28:14.780 provide it with a soul okay and to me life is when the soul and the body are connected right when the

00:28:22.060 soul leaves the body you're dead you have told me several times with certainty we'll never get this

00:28:27.180 far god won't let this happen right okay yeah because of your religious belief what happens pat if this

00:28:34.040 does happen to your faith now not your faith most people's faith because most people will say god will

00:28:39.400 never let us create this what happens if we do what happens to faith when man can become god and then

00:28:47.960 artificial intelligence provides us with all answers i think that you'd have to say um

00:28:54.900 danger will robinson danger no it's really i think that's what you have to i mean i think that's where

00:29:01.180 we'd be danger will robinson definitely would be faith goes faith goes away it's true well you know

00:29:07.300 for some people they they'd be shaken if there was ufos or if there'd be aliens that that were here to

00:29:15.580 me that's not an issue because the the ideas of this are going to change us to the very fundamental

00:29:23.280 core yeah very very soon and um when you look at artificial intelligence coming and man saying he's god

00:29:36.860 it has happened before several times in the bible but the one time that it really happened where man was

00:29:44.120 trying to become god was the tower of babel and what did god do

00:29:50.820 confuse their language compassion confuse their language he says there is absolutely no way to stop

00:29:59.360 ai and the real danger is if it gets into the internet because then it can hide in your refrigerator

00:30:05.400 it will never go away you'll never get rid of it it will live in something

00:30:11.120 unless our confused unless our language was confused and by language i mean

00:30:17.740 one one zero zero one zero zero one one zero zero zero binary language

00:30:25.000 it'd be the only way to stop ai

00:30:28.980 this is so hard to talk about because it's so far it's so far into science fiction for most people

00:30:39.780 but i'm telling you please listen to me please do your homework on this this is what we should be

00:30:46.900 talking about and anybody and for for the reasons like this robotics are absolutely coming and they

00:30:54.280 are going to displace 50 of the workforce self-driving trucks are coming and that is going to get rid of

00:31:03.480 all of the truck driving jobs that's one of the number one truck jobs in most states so now what's

00:31:10.880 going to happen you're going to be able to tell which politician is telling you the truth and which one is

00:31:16.260 lying to you because a politician who says i'm going to bring the jobs back a politician who says

00:31:23.500 uh you know what we need to we need to um have greater education in our schools but we're leaving our

00:31:30.540 educational system alone for the most part they're lying to you they either know what the future of

00:31:37.100 silicon valley is promising and they are lying to you or they have no concept which is most likely the case

00:31:44.840 no concept of what is really coming those jobs are never coming back and obviously it affects the

00:31:51.580 economy but it affects everything i mean think about if you were uh smart enough before you know

00:31:58.040 the iphone came out um and there were many people who were to realize how you could get ahead and plan

00:32:04.840 for politically for example a political party saying okay this is coming how do we take advantage of this

00:32:10.720 how do we manipulate this uh it go and and the democrats did that right i mean they were the

00:32:15.580 ones that understood yes early on yes that this technology and data was going to be very important

00:32:20.960 and they won a couple of elections basically based on it you will win elections in the future if you

00:32:25.520 understand ai and robotics alone because that's going to change the fundamental economic system

00:32:34.520 of our country and jobs if you are ahead of the curve you are going to have credibility everyone else is

00:32:42.400 going to look like a luddite everyone else is going to say ban the robots or they'll just lie to you and

00:32:49.240 say i'll bring your job back and it's because of china it's not it's not it's because the world is

00:32:55.120 changing this is the cotton gin on steroids you're listening to the glenn beck program

00:33:04.240 the glenn beck program the man the legend uh bill o'reilly uh steps into the really really

00:33:22.780 positively no spin zone uh our program uh in just a few minutes you don't want to miss you don't

00:33:30.140 want to miss that also a cure for universal health care an absolutely profound article on what we should

00:33:41.920 do coming up this is the glenn beck program mercury

00:33:50.580 this is the blaze radio on demand well donald trump could get obama pair obamacare repealed

00:34:12.920 tomorrow according to the resurgent if he just if if he just did this one thing we'll get into that

00:34:19.120 here in a second um i would like to suggest that maybe we try you know cruise care have you heard

00:34:27.560 ted cruz's proposal why we're not talking about real conservative ideas to pass this we'll get into

00:34:36.060 that uh also protesters are planning a tax march on washington not about income tax they they they want

00:34:46.500 donald trump's uh donald trump's uh donald trump's income tax returns

00:34:49.840 if that is the thing that gets you out to march you got a sad sad life and the one and only bill o'reilly

00:34:57.340 joins us right now

00:35:01.680 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program

00:35:24.340 bill o'reilly bill o'reilly bill o'reilly bill o'reilly oh boy how you doing all right back how you

00:35:34.540 well i you know i you know i'm i'm we're concerned we are we're very concerned concerned yeah very

00:35:41.360 concerned bill very concerned i bet you guys are we heard this on fox and friends and go ahead roll

00:35:50.360 of the day maxine waters i love her she says i can't wait maxine water should have her own sitcom

00:35:56.360 absolutely okay all right it's just i just you know people get angry with maxine waters i want

00:36:03.200 more of it so what does that mean bill we've been listening all morning we cannot i didn't hear a

00:36:07.900 worry she said i was i was looking at the james brown wig wow oh my gosh oh my gosh now we have

00:36:18.100 the side by side here and she may actually be wearing james brown's uh wig but we don't say 0.99

00:36:27.220 those things nobody you know bill make it do you think maxine or anybody on the left is going to make

00:36:32.640 fun of donald trump's hair no no you don't do that i and if i had said it about you you know um 1.00

00:36:41.200 pamela anderson or somebody like that nobody would have cared but um it was stupid it was a stupid 0.94

00:36:48.800 line and uh i apologize for it because here's why here's why we're concerned bill this is why we're 0.96

00:36:56.180 concerned i know i know i know not for what i said because i apologize but yeah there's a legitimate

00:37:05.420 there's a legitimate point that and it has nothing to do with color but it has to do with politics

00:37:11.840 that the politics of the far left all right are so destructive to the nation at this point in history

00:37:20.000 that this should be a page one story that no matter what the republican congress does no matter

00:37:28.320 what the president does they're going to oppose and try to destroy that's a huge story huge and

00:37:35.680 you see it with neil gorsuch and you see it and uh with the health care you see it all the way down

00:37:40.860 the line so to for me just trying to make this point to say an immature thing like that about miss 0.97

00:37:48.360 waters was just stupid because i gave the enemy um a uh sword in which to stab me to death which they 0.95

00:37:58.340 tried to use you look at it if i had it and if i had to do it again i never would have said anything 0.99

00:38:04.580 like that i would just i would i like her in the sense that she will say what's on her mind and she

00:38:10.880 really i will tell you but long before donald trump was ever a candidate i went to yeah i was forced

00:38:17.460 to go to a uh larry king i don't know 180th birthday party and it was in manhattan and donald trump and

00:38:26.820 his wife walked in the room and tanya and i happened to be sitting there and or standing there and we

00:38:32.720 talked to him for a while and as he walked away uh we both said a we don't know how he gets his hair

00:38:39.480 to do that and didn't have a recollection of anything that he talked to us about because we

00:38:45.500 were just staring at his hair i've told that story a million times nobody i'm not getting in trouble

00:38:50.060 no but you you because i did something which i consider and it's honest i i consider that a mistake

00:39:00.600 what i did and and i can't point to other people doing whatever i think everybody fair-minded people

00:39:08.540 know what kind of a country we're living in now the charges of racism all over the place

00:39:14.320 uh if you disagree with someone you're a racist okay it's horrible it's terrible and these are the

00:39:20.260 stories you should be talking about it's interesting to note that uh i don't know whether you know about

00:39:24.960 the talladega college situation now where their band was invited to go to the inauguration back do you

00:39:30.240 know about that black college in louisiana talladega college they were invited to appear at the

00:39:36.800 inauguration the tornadoes talladega tornadoes an unbelievable marching band okay yeah okay so i

00:39:42.820 raised yeah i raised 150 000 for the band to come to washington to perform at the inauguration and for

00:39:50.060 the college scholarship fund 150k all right we raised not one left-wing website or newspaper picked

00:39:57.660 it up and mentioned it not one yeah okay so this is this is the world we live in now this is what we

00:40:03.700 we live in but again um i apologize to miss waters i'd love to have her on my program because i'd like

00:40:10.000 to talk issues with her well your point on on maxine waters generally speaking is a great one in that

00:40:15.600 the reason why you have to love maxine waters and bernie sanders falls into this group as well

00:40:20.260 is that absolutely good observation absolutely he will come out and say it he will come out and say

00:40:25.400 we're going for single-payer health care right uh where half when when maxine waters came out about 1.00

00:40:30.380 the oil companies and we will tell you what will happen we will we'll basically we'll own your will

00:40:35.340 socialize we'll socialize or basically take over take over your remember that phrase she'll blurt it out 0.90

00:40:42.680 she'll say it she'll say it and that's why she's great she in a crazy sort of way and i think i think

00:40:49.500 we all we all should respect people who put um their ideology clearly now unfortunately she does it 0.98

00:40:57.280 all of this yeah all of this is lost in our in our culture of hate um you know the reason i'm talking

00:41:05.160 to you not not that i wouldn't talk to you back you're my pal i talk to you anytime but i had uh i got

00:41:10.460 the uh number one book on amazon just out yesterday called old school life in the same

00:41:16.040 lane this is the perfect example of what we're talking about you're not killing anybody in this

00:41:21.300 one no we're gonna oh wow the next uh the next homicide occurs in september so wait a minute so

00:41:27.420 so i read your book bill um and you actually read it i actually read it i actually read it it was

00:41:33.400 excruciating but i read it so uh so qualify that for you to read anything no no i'm reading several

00:41:44.040 really good books and i read yours and um so so in it you i mean you tell some great stories and

00:41:51.060 there's i mean i can relate to a lot of this but do you think that old school is coming back

00:41:58.640 i think it could come back um but the the far left has been very effective in demonizing people

00:42:08.000 who are old school and explain what old school means explain what old school is a point of view

00:42:15.060 it's not it doesn't have anything to do with values by the way that that's totally different

00:42:19.520 because you can be a liberal and you can be old school all right you can be conservative in old

00:42:23.960 school or you can be conservative in a snowflake um it has to do with point of view and if you want

00:42:29.820 to essentially boil it down to the old school point of view is self-reliance okay you have to live your

00:42:34.680 life you have to succeed on your own you can get help that's fine but it's basically you driving

00:42:41.280 your success or failure you driving your achievements or lack thereof that's the old school philosophy

00:42:49.160 the snowflake philosophy is totally opposite i'm a victim everybody's bad look at this i need the safe

00:42:58.600 space i need i i need uh there's there's a trigger i get that trigger away from me um they can't

00:43:05.960 basically tough out hard times they fall apart snowflakes they melt so that's the two competing points

00:43:15.500 of view now in the country and you see what's happening on college campuses snowflakeville has

00:43:20.520 taken over taken over and the media too absolutely in the media snowflake central all right the mainstream

00:43:28.340 national media so at you know self-reliant people are the villains the achievers are the bad people

00:43:36.180 and the people who don't have or can't do it or can't buy their insurance they're the victims

00:43:43.460 and the oppressive old school society is keeping them down but isn't old school isn't old school

00:43:51.780 though bill also about fierce independence i mean i think both sides right now it's fierce independence

00:43:59.220 same thing i think hang on just hang on hang on a second i i think bill that there is um a a a lot of

00:44:06.860 people in the right media that if you don't agree with donald trump you don't have a i mean you're part of

00:44:13.220 the problem you are you know that's political yeah that's political and and old school doesn't

00:44:20.300 really have anything to do with politics it has to do with a personal philosophy beck is old school

00:44:26.640 okay because you have a belief system all right so glenn beck has a belief system which he talks about

00:44:36.080 on his radio and television programs and debates others who whose system isn't the same but we all

00:44:42.880 know what your system is we all know what your belief system is that's old school you don't change

00:44:48.200 every hour on the hour every week you're different and that's all i'm saying old school doesn't have

00:44:54.120 to do with politics it has to do with personal point of view bill i was i think an example of this

00:45:00.400 potentially is uh i was listening to an interview with a new york times crime reporter and they were

00:45:04.960 talking about how the media has changed in the way they cover police officers um and one of the

00:45:11.780 examples they use is that journalism itself used to be a blue collar job it was this job where you mixed

00:45:17.800 it up you you knew the cops you understood the way that they worked and it's changed to this sort of

00:45:23.360 high educated thing where now they seem to be judging the police um and and and that sort of

00:45:29.920 old school mentality was if you wanted to cover these things you got into the middle of it isn't

00:45:34.420 that part of it well my grandfather was an nypd officer and uh my father was a naval officer in

00:45:43.420 world war ii and so i'm just trying to hang on i'm i'm having a hard time getting my arms around

00:45:48.840 uh officer o'reilly in new york that was unheard of

00:45:55.000 so they they had points of view that were old school that there's right and wrong here's how you

00:46:04.360 behave here's how you treat people and all that and the reporters who covered them um who covered my

00:46:11.460 grandfather in the 1930s had the same values the same exact values but now many of the reporters

00:46:20.080 in uh working in newspapers in particular tv as well their values are totally different and totally

00:46:26.440 opposite to law enforcement there is no right and wrong there's always a gray area there's always an

00:46:31.000 excuse okay what do you what's not oh what gives you so they're not sympathetic to the cops what gives

00:46:37.660 you the feeling that um these values will come back around this this philosophy of hey i've got to be

00:46:47.960 rigorous on the truth i've got to be you know i've i've got to you know pull my own weight um i've got to

00:46:56.280 be decent to everybody i mean what makes you think this is going to come back around well i i'm a hopeful

00:47:03.060 guy in a sense that there's cycles in every country and we're in a civil war now no doubt about it all

00:47:11.320 right a cultural civil war which is why trump was elected um and if trump is successful in or um in

00:47:21.400 his economic that's what it's all about bringing jobs and and higher wages then he'll be re-elected

00:47:27.300 for another term it's all about economics so that it's not that trump is an old school guy i mean i

00:47:34.100 can't say whether he is and i don't know him that well um but it's it gives hope to the people who are

00:47:42.520 rejecting this pc culture because certainly donald trump is not politically correct right so if he

00:47:49.000 if his power all right consolidates and he has a long run in the white house that's going to give

00:47:58.420 the anti-pc forces a real advantage now will they take advantage of it i don't know you think gorsuch

00:48:07.580 is going to get through yes of course are they going to give him are they going to make the democrats

00:48:13.380 going to make the republicans use the nuclear option maybe i mean it's a headcount situation

00:48:20.120 there might be four or five democrats that would go over but you know it'll probably top out about

00:48:24.800 57 the republican party isn't going to sit around anymore and take the stuff they can't because they

00:48:30.260 look weak now they look the republicans look weak now what do you think it was strong what do you

00:48:35.060 think about trump saying over the weekend that this was the heritage foundation and uh the freedom

00:48:41.220 caucuses fault and he was going to start looking to cobble together some democrats to bring them in 0.85

00:48:46.740 what do you think of that no i don't think that's possible i think the democratic party at this point

00:48:53.560 is in lockstep because they're they're they're afraid they're afraid of chuck schumer and they're

00:48:59.080 afraid of pelosi because if they go against them then those people will actively try to destroy their

00:49:05.600 careers there's a lot of fear on the hill not so much in the republican precincts they don't

00:49:11.080 fear trump at this point you saw the video of fear you you saw the schumer and pelosi you you saw

00:49:17.420 the video of nancy pelosi being booed in her own town hall in san francisco i mean that that old guard

00:49:24.700 is looking very old and it's uh right it's not it's not working and there was a there's a new poll out

00:49:32.520 today from berkeley uh that says in california it's about 50 50 sanctuary city support so about half of

00:49:40.060 the californians don't want sanctuary cities so there is a trend away from the madness but whether

00:49:45.640 there's going to be a leader emerge for the old school army that's what is necessary and i don't

00:49:52.680 know whether that's going to happen or not bill o'reilly great book life in the same lane it's called

00:49:57.440 old school came out yesterday already number one uh and it will be number one until this guy i think

00:50:04.000 he's probably a cyborg at this point i think bill o'reilly may have died five years ago and

00:50:08.320 they're just keeping him alive just to pump out books um but it'll be number one and until until

00:51:28.560 mercury

00:51:30.520 this is the glenn beck program

00:51:35.800 oh hello america i'm surprised we all made it in here yesterday last night some of us lost power

00:51:45.100 and some of us were almost sucked into the sky we had a tornado terrifying night it was a bad night

00:51:51.160 i got fences down two in the morning shingles off the roof every cell phone in our house starts

00:51:56.620 alarming uh crap and then the and then the tornado siren started off and that it lasted longer than i've

00:52:03.520 ever heard it last the first time there's nothing like this the the sound the growl 0.96

00:52:08.520 of of tornadoes well i mean and i've never been anywhere near one i mean these are we did not

00:52:15.060 actually have a tornado it was just no i had to watch it was a big warning uh in our areas and i mean

00:52:21.220 wind speeds had to be 75 or 80 miles an hour the good thing is you can get right back to sleep after

00:52:26.780 that after being terrified for your life for a half hour right 2 30 in the morning you're standing

00:52:30.620 around in your safe room or whatever you just have to get to a point where you're just like

00:52:33.600 whatever and just go into statement i'll be sucked up into the sky tonight whatever

00:52:38.280 back with uh part two of the history of the democratic party uh from reconstruction to

00:52:45.900 woodrow wilson next

00:52:47.200 the glenn beck program

00:52:51.660 this is the glenn beck program

00:52:59.600 as we look back into history of the parties the racist history of the democratic party has been

00:53:08.360 very well documented while it is a fact that democrats avoided at all costs when pushed they

00:53:15.160 will admit the truthfulness of it but they quickly claim that the racist democrats in the south became

00:53:21.060 republicans who then became the racists they'll tell you that they now are the party of racial 0.68

00:53:27.440 acceptance and inclusion unfortunately the problem is that statement is vastly untrue in saying that it is

00:53:34.220 important to remember that we're not talking about democrats as your neighbors we're talking about

00:53:38.460 democrats as the institution and while democrats like to claim that they are the party for a century

00:53:44.700 now that has helped minorities and women get ahead that they are the party of the downtrodden the facts 0.95

00:53:50.780 simply don't back it up not to put too fine of a point on it but the opposite is actually the truth

00:53:58.220 during the past 200 years democrats simply shifted their actions from overt racism to covert racism the tactics

00:54:07.900 that they use to control minorities in america just changed they shifted from actual slavery on the

00:54:14.140 cotton plantations to making sure that blacks remain on the plantation of government assistance 0.99

00:54:20.540 ever dependent on their democratic overseers republicans meanwhile as a general rule have always fought for

00:54:28.220 the rights of self-determination for minorities any minority they tend not to promise that the government will 0.89

00:54:35.260 take care of them instead the gop if true to its non-progressive roots has a philosophy that allows

00:54:44.060 people to have the opportunity to take care of themselves to chart their own course make their own

00:54:50.460 destiny to thrive rather than just survive on the handouts from supposed benevolent masters and the

00:54:58.140 gop did this first as abolitionists then they were the party that was opposed to the jim crow laws the

00:55:05.500 party in favor of women's suffrage and black civil rights finally the party that favors less government 0.91

00:55:12.700 intervention in the lives of minorities and everyone else in this country on our last episode it took

00:55:19.660 us to the american civil war it's just an interesting quick side note the confederate flag that is so hated

00:55:26.620 today is such a symbol of hatred and racism but it was created and used by democrats even though

00:55:35.260 the union won the civil war and the republican president abraham lincoln signed the emancipation

00:55:40.220 proclamation freeing slaves still in the south the rights for blacks were ignored and oppression

00:55:46.620 continued as democrats passed laws to keep them down 1866 republicans went to work to put a stop on the

00:55:54.220 of southern lawlessness and to strengthen the newly passed 13th amendment which had finally

00:55:59.580 constitutionally banned the practice of slavery in america once and for all by the time congress

00:56:05.980 convened in 1866 anti-slavery republicans dominated both houses led by men like john bingham in the house

00:56:13.500 along with senators charles sumner and jacob howard radical republicans enjoyed complete control of congress

00:56:19.180 they have the power to amend the constitution and they are determined to use it they were faced with

00:56:26.140 an unending series of abuses in the reconstruction south state and local governments had responded to

00:56:32.620 the new 13th amendment ban on slavery by trying to deprive newly freed slaves and their white supporters

00:56:39.580 of any meaningful freedom especially economic freedom this was a societal change that southern democrats

00:56:46.940 were passionate about stopping economic liberty the right to pursue a livelihood of your own choosing

00:56:54.700 and to keep the money you earn was the opposite of slavery and the real opportunity for freed

00:57:00.940 slaves to lead a free life the pro-slavery forces knew this so in the south freed slaves weren't just

00:57:09.340 banned from pursuing particular occupations but in some places it was actually illegal for black people to

00:57:16.060 leave their employers property without written permission in others breaking a labor contract was

00:57:22.940 punished by whipping the 14th amendment was supposed to stop rights violations like these the democrats in

00:57:30.540 the south had lost the war but they were determined that nothing in the states they controlled was going to

00:57:36.380 change so it was up to congress to try to do something about the deep schism that divided the nation the 14th

00:57:44.060 amendment protects three distinct interests due process equal protection and the privileges or immunities

00:57:50.860 meaning rights of united states citizens of those three privileges or immunities are by far the most

00:57:57.740 important because that clause protects individual rights from government infringement in congress as was

00:58:04.300 the case with the abolition of slavery with the 13th amendment every single republican voted for the amendment

00:58:11.180 all republicans 23 of democrats in congress voted in favor of the 13th amendment but not one democrat in the

00:58:21.020 u.s house or u.s senate voted for the 14th amendment 100 republican support zero support from the democrats now

00:58:32.860 these are not opinions they are historical provable facts they may be uncomfortable for some democrats to

00:58:40.620 hear but they are indeed the truth david barton explains why the 14th amendment was so important

00:58:47.900 you get to the end of the civil war shortly after you abolish slavery now you've got all these states

00:58:52.940 who separated to have slavery and they've got to come back into the union somehow but you've got

00:58:58.140 to convince them that if you're going to get back in you have to do so upholding the 13th amendment

00:59:03.020 slavery's got to be over well they wouldn't they said all right so what you freed all the slaves but

00:59:07.500 they're not going to be citizens of our state we're not going to let them be citizens louisiana or georgia 1.00

00:59:11.340 or texas or whatever so congress is let's do a little arm twisting here and that set the stage 1.00

00:59:17.580 for another amendment to the constitution so they come up with the 14th amendment that says that a

00:59:23.580 freed slave is a citizen of the state in which he lives so what it happens in the south you had two

00:59:30.860 types of citizens you had state citizens and you had others just living there free blacks who can't be 1.00

00:59:36.700 citizens the federal constitution says no no that stops right now you live in a state you're a

00:59:41.980 citizen of that state that's the end of it so that when it came time to vote on that in the federal

00:59:46.620 congress the 14th amendment that says that these former slaves get civil rights not a single democrat 0.60

00:59:53.580 in congress voted for the 14th amendment democrats were losing the battle constitutionally and

00:59:59.820 legislatively but they were finding other ways around their perceived problem you have all these slave

01:00:05.820 owners all these racist mentality people who are willing to form their own nation on the basis of

01:00:10.460 race and now you're trying to say that my elected representatives are black i'm not going to do this 0.96

01:00:16.940 well in democratic states not only do you have republicans you've got black republicans

01:00:23.020 so nationally in 1866 to stop this ford progress there was a group that was started to

01:00:29.900 keep republicans out of office the group that was started in 1866 we recognize today but it was the

01:00:35.900 ku klux klan the early days of the clan were marked by violence against blacks of course but white republicans

01:00:43.100 were not spared their wrath either in 1871 a black u.s congressman from south carolina joseph hayne rainey

01:00:51.500 reported an incident concerning an elderly man named dr john winsmith a white republican state senator

01:00:57.740 the doctor the doctor a man nearly 70 years of age had been to town returning home late he soon

01:01:04.220 afterward retired a little after midnight he was aroused by someone knocking violently at his front door

01:01:14.380 the clan shot down this state senator a white state senator because he was republican and was fighting for

01:01:20.700 the rights of blacks in his state in that hail of bullets dr winsmith was hit seven times however he

01:01:27.500 survived the shooting and lived to testify before congress about the attack made on him by the clan

01:01:33.260 the clan was really after the republican black or white and the democratic clan only got worse from there

01:01:42.540 the shameful history of the democratic party is one of america's best kept secrets from the party's

01:01:48.380 inception with its founder martin van buren and president andrew jackson the democrats desperately

01:01:54.220 tried to take away the rights and in many cases the very lives of minorities blacks and indians from

01:02:01.900 the devastating war against the american indians to the continued scourge of slavery seceding from the

01:02:07.900 union igniting civil war fighting against the constitutional rights gained by blacks after the war

01:02:14.460 and starting the kkk wow the democrats were to this point a century-long blight on the united states

01:02:24.620 whether that blight would continue during the next century is a topic that we have to explore however

01:02:31.260 listen to today's democrats and much of their supportive media the democrats are positioned as the keepers of

01:02:38.140 the flame of liberty the ferocious fighters in defense of the underdog but honestly if you look at the facts

01:02:46.780 nothing could be further from the truth next time let's examine how the clan lost its steam and then

01:02:54.220 became reinvigorated by an american democratic president we look into the men who furthered the racism of the

01:03:01.340 party and started the ideological radicalism of the progressive democratic party tomorrow on the

01:03:09.740 glenbeck program in chapter three of the history of the democratic party you'll learn how the

01:03:14.220 progressives elected the most bigoted president we ever had woodrow wilson listen live or online at

01:03:19.900 glenbeck.com slash serials do you know do you know how the democrats got the donkey as their symbol

01:03:26.300 the donkey and the elephant you guys know how that happened i think i've heard this story but i don't

01:03:29.820 i don't remember so the donkey came from uh andrew jackson the guy running against andrew jackson said 0.98

01:03:36.860 we cannot have this dumb old ass uh as president of the united states and so they started drawing him 0.98

01:03:43.500 as a donkey and jackson loved it and so they just stuck with it i mean it started as a as we can't have this 1.00

01:03:54.380 dumb old ass how did the elephant start this one is fascinating to me uh probably a fat joke 0.99

01:04:02.780 elephants elephants have long memories 1.00

01:04:07.420 the idea was i've seen the worst i have seen the mass of death and the massive struggle i saw the

01:04:22.060 elephant of slavery and i stood really yeah i mean wow you ever even heard of that it was

01:04:29.340 based on an anti-slavery that i this party was the one that went in and and saw the elephant and fought

01:04:38.620 the elephant of slavery and moved it i you'd never know that you'd never know that anyway you can get

01:04:47.980 all of the um uh all of the cereals they're free just download them at glennbeck.com slash cereals is

01:04:55.260 is next week uh calvin coolidge i have something on calvin coolidge i can't wait to share maybe we'll

01:05:01.340 share it after the break here glennbeck program triple eight seven two seven back mercury

01:05:12.620 you're listening to the glennbeck program

01:05:16.460 so here's a um here's a health care bill we could get behind now that the paul ryan one didn't work

01:05:22.940 let's try another one try this one on for size give me the give me the rundown of this pat okay first

01:05:28.780 first step repeal obamacare entirely one simple law that ends it maybe with the stipulation that

01:05:35.900 you know some of its provisions could be phased out rather than just ended abruptly because then you

01:05:42.060 know you wouldn't have the people screaming about everybody losing their health care but the phasing

01:05:46.620 has to be complete by the end of trump's first term otherwise uh you're inviting disaster with the next

01:05:51.980 president right mandate insurance be portable meaning it's not tied to your employment so if you lose

01:05:58.700 your job you don't lose your health insurance you take it with you love that you have the ability

01:06:02.860 to continue the coverage without interruption as you find new work mandate insurance be continuous

01:06:08.700 and renewable which would mean insurance companies aren't allowed to jack up your rates or your costs

01:06:13.820 because you get sick because that defeats the whole purpose of insurance it's like like life

01:06:18.060 insurance right as you get older you're still paying that same rate if you started and more

01:06:21.580 consistent paying the whole time which would in you know encourage you to stay within the system

01:06:25.580 right also open up the insurance market we've heard a lot about this across state lines competition

01:06:31.020 is going to decrease the cost it always does it always has it always does um and you allow people to buy

01:06:38.220 low-cost catastrophic coverage including the use of health savings accounts yeah i mean it's a brilliant

01:06:45.500 plan it's a great plan this would work and are they going to go to no because it's ted cruz because

01:06:55.260 it's ted cruz no they won't they won't i don't think they will no bannon doesn't trump i think the last

01:07:02.220 thing trump would want is ted cruz yeah to come up with but i will tell you ted cruz i don't think ted

01:07:07.260 cruz would have a problem giving that to somebody else no no i don't think he would just give it to

01:07:11.500 somebody else put somebody else's name on it i don't think he'd have a problem with that and it's

01:07:15.260 a great bill he won't do it and bannon also doesn't want to hear from people like ran paul

01:07:22.380 doesn't he has a real problem with libertarians and really what is a libertarian i mean you know you

01:07:30.940 can you can look at a libertarian many ways but the best libertarians are the ones who are the most

01:07:36.940 constitutionalist out of out of everybody else the real libertarian are the ones who stick by the

01:07:43.180 constitution why wouldn't you want a constitutionalist why wouldn't you want if you're president of the

01:07:51.260 united states why would you not want the constitutionalist on your side i mean that just

01:07:56.620 unless you have no intention of following the constitution and this is what we were promised we

01:08:00.460 were promised a full repeal we weren't promised a patch job of the existing obamacare law that's

01:08:06.860 that's not what they said was going to happen and that's all this previous bill was it was just a it's

01:08:11.740 it was patchwork on obamacare that's not going to cut it you got to get rid of that system and replace

01:08:17.820 it with something well like this we only had a few days to work on it though give them a chance

01:08:23.420 you know i think they're coming back i think they're coming back supposedly are let's see what happens

01:08:27.900 are you hopeful it'll be something like this no no no but let's see what it is let's see what it is

01:08:33.580 yeah back in a minute

01:08:43.100 mercury

01:08:57.900 this is the blaze radio on demand

01:09:03.740 matt walsh has matt has been working for the blaze for how many years now

01:09:09.580 started 19 19 years we haven't been around that long oh um he started he's a guy who we just were

01:09:16.140 following his blog and thought this guy is really sharp he has turned into one of the strongest

01:09:23.900 conservative voices for the next generation he's just written a new book called the unholy trinity

01:09:30.940 the blocking of the left's assault on life marriage and gender and he joins us right now

01:09:35.580 i will make a stand i will raise my voice

01:09:41.420 i will hold your hand

01:09:44.140 because we are one i will beat my drum

01:09:48.300 i have made my choice we will overcome

01:09:53.020 because we are one

01:09:55.100 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program

01:10:03.740 matt walsh welcome to the program how are you sir

01:10:05.740 doing great thanks for having me going uh so um the unholy trinity i i'll tell you

01:10:12.540 every time you come out with an an article it you were one of the few authors that i try to read

01:10:18.620 every time um because you always have something you've always seemed to distill

01:10:24.620 uh whatever it is the country is talking about or debating you seem to be able to distill it

01:10:31.420 um you're taking on a pretty huge uh task here to distill life marriage and gender

01:10:42.700 yeah well this is it probably deserves many more books and and a better book than i'm capable of writing

01:10:49.820 but in fact when i when i looked at before when i thought of the idea for this book and

01:10:54.620 i i kind of looked to see if anyone else had written it so that i wouldn't have to

01:10:58.940 but uh but i it seemed that nobody had this you know this the relationship

01:11:05.260 or the way that these that these campaigns on the left are connected their their battle to redefine

01:11:10.620 human life marriage and gender and it strikes me that this right here this this is the foundation of

01:11:15.820 the entire culture war that they're all connected and uh they happen one after another yeah and

01:11:22.300 it seems like uh there there aren't a lot of people talking about how the fact the fact that

01:11:26.300 these things are connected so that's why i uh unfortunately i had to be so show me how

01:11:31.020 show me how they are connected matt well because what what is the left you know what is leftism what is

01:11:37.580 liberalism whatever you want to call it it's the it's i think fundamentally it's the rejection of

01:11:43.260 objective truth of moral truth scientific truth the rejection of god and in place of that once

01:11:49.580 they've rejected that what do they put in place of it they put relativism where everything is relative

01:11:54.460 to how i feel about it and so they began um you know 40 years ago with roe v wade abortion had to be

01:12:05.260 the first step because you you begin by making human life itself relative and that's the interesting

01:12:10.940 thing a lot of people miss about the pro-abortion side it's not that they necessarily argue that

01:12:16.780 the baby in the womb isn't human or isn't a person they say that it's humanity and personhood depends

01:12:23.420 on how the mother feels about it so if remember you know beyonce was uh with the grammy she was pregnant

01:12:29.500 she was dancing and everyone was talking about oh she's a mother she's got a baby in her belly 1.00

01:12:34.700 because she wants her baby so she wants a baby and plus it's beyonce's baby so of course it's more 0.94

01:12:39.340 important than normal baby so then in that case uh it's human but if a mother doesn't want the baby 1.00

01:12:43.900 then it's no longer human so the baby's life is relative to how the mother feels about it so matt

01:12:48.700 and then once are you are you concerned that this is getting worse and worse and worse uh and we are

01:12:58.620 coming up uh to a time in in technological history to where we're going to have to defend life

01:13:06.940 what is life itself when does it begin and when does it end and do you have a right as a society

01:13:15.420 to end people's lives because they've they've lived long enough we're 15 years away from having to

01:13:22.860 really answer those questions and we are disconnecting as you said from science they they claim that because

01:13:30.700 of global warming you know the the right are the keepers of science or the left of the keepers of

01:13:35.900 science but they're denying it's a baby with an ultrasound yeah they deny that this thing they

01:13:43.660 they would even argue depending on the mother feels about it that it's not even human you know that that

01:13:47.900 argument is there's no scientific basis for that whatsoever if it's not a human what is it it's got

01:13:52.380 to be you know fetus is not a species a human is a species so to suggest that at one point in our

01:13:58.140 existence we are not of the human species is of course crazy and we know that now they've moved

01:14:02.380 on to you know the sort of the the final prong was the transgender thing which is the total insanity if 1.00

01:14:08.060 it's suggesting that our my my sex is relative to how i feel um so it it is what once once they've

01:14:16.540 completed that process and once we've allowed them to and we buy into it we buy into this premise

01:14:22.380 then there's no style i don't know where it ends but there's no stopping it at that point

01:14:25.500 bringing marriage to this

01:14:31.740 well yeah marriage is uh unfortunately it seems that many conservatives christians have

01:14:39.180 you know they'll they'll agree that we need to you know we we still need to fight about life we need

01:14:43.900 to we need to stand for the sanctity of life i think many will also agree that hey we can't

01:14:48.380 give them this gender thing because that's just crazy but now we've kind of we've kind of jumped over

01:14:53.420 marriage and we said well they won marriage there's nothing we can do about it you know

01:14:57.340 let's let's just move on from that i think that's a huge mistake that's a that's a that's a huge mistake

01:15:02.300 because the the argument about marriage it was never you know the way the left framed it they said

01:15:07.100 that oh we conservatives are trying to make gay marriage illegal where you know we're trying to 0.99

01:15:12.780 prohibit men and men from loving each other it was never that our argument was that marriage is a

01:15:18.780 certain thing it is something it has dimensions it has a function it has a purpose in society

01:15:24.300 and so it is the union between a man and woman we never we never asked the government to define it

01:15:29.260 we just wanted the government to recognize what it is just like i want the government to continue

01:15:33.100 recognizing what male and female is i don't want the government to define male and female i just want

01:15:37.740 them to recognize that a male is a male you know we have to have a government that recognizes reality 0.57

01:15:41.580 at the very least uh so if we if we allow them if we just say okay fine well maybe marriage is

01:15:48.540 relative if two men love each other then they can redefine this ancient human institution and um if we

01:15:56.060 if we give that to them then on what basis can we engage on any of these other points i think that

01:16:02.540 because they're all connected we have to be united we have to we have to we have to engage them on all

01:16:08.460 of them or none of them because if we give them one then i think we kind of see the rest but how do

01:16:12.460 you how do you navigate these waters when um the right is just as unhinged from reality as the left

01:16:20.460 is i couldn't say just as but we're headed in the same direction where you know what is what does it

01:16:26.860 mean matt honestly to be a conservative to be a christian to um you know to believe in small government

01:16:35.260 what does any of that mean anymore after the last two years well that's a really good question i

01:16:41.980 know what it means to be a christian so that's why more and more i just i say well look i'm a christian

01:16:46.860 if you want to if you want to know what late you want to know what to label me label me a christian

01:16:50.380 label me an american a father you know husband i mean those are i know what those labels mean

01:16:55.260 and and they define do you think the average person knows what a christian do you think the average

01:16:59.260 person on the left and quite honestly many of the people on the right actually know or define

01:17:06.300 christianity the same way you do no they don't they don't but it does have a definitive definition

01:17:13.500 whether or not they reject it well that's a different matter but it does have a definitive

01:17:17.340 definition conservatism is a like a political label so those definitions do change over time i don't

01:17:22.220 think it's really ingrained or definitive but but christianity is ingrained and definitive you

01:17:28.380 you believe that christ uh came to earth to suffer and die for the redemption of mankind 0.76

01:17:34.460 and you strive to live and serve christ and to be with him in this life and the next that is

01:17:40.060 christianity anything outside of that is not christianity period um but conservatism is is you

01:17:45.180 know that's more of a fluid label and now it's gotten to the point where i yeah i don't know what

01:17:49.500 it means anymore and uh i don't know if i even want to identify myself with it so how do we how do we

01:17:55.260 get to a place to where we can come together and we can um actually begin to agree on the truth you

01:18:04.540 have the left saying things that are absolutely crazy about you know if you don't if you're not 0.99

01:18:11.500 attracted to a woman if you're quote not attracted to a woman with a penis then you are a sexist 1.00

01:18:20.940 well i hate to point it out but women don't have penises um you know if if you don't believe uh 0.99

01:18:29.900 in you know the new right uh and and that a trillion dollar stimulus package uh is good for the country 0.98

01:18:39.580 well then you're not with us you're an enemy how do we how do we find our way to each other when truth

01:18:47.740 doesn't matter yeah i think we have to begin well liberals have an advantage because they are

01:18:54.460 unified they're all kind of on the same page it is easier for them to be on the same page because

01:18:59.900 their fundamental uh you know guiding principle is that they can do whatever they want and everything

01:19:05.660 is up to them so it's kind of easy to live according to that and to get everyone to agree with it

01:19:09.900 our uh our side quote unquote has a a belief system that is requires more of us and because

01:19:18.300 you're identifying and you're you're submitting yourself to objective truths and you're saying

01:19:22.780 you have to order your life around them and that requires effort and sacrifice so it is more difficult

01:19:26.780 but i think we have to begin by just establishing what are our most fundamental most basic beliefs

01:19:34.380 and you know do we agree on those and then if we can all agree on those then yeah maybe you know

01:19:41.900 maybe we could disagree a little we can have some disagreements on some of the other finer points on

01:19:45.980 some of the economic things or whatever else but i think we all have to be on the same page

01:19:51.420 that we are you know endowed by the creator with life liberty rights pursuit of happiness but that

01:19:57.740 that comes from the creator and that you know sanctity of life because we were created by god we

01:20:04.060 have we are our lives are sacred not not for our own sake but because we belong to god i mean these have

01:20:09.980 to be our fundamental guiding principles um and if we you know i think that's what we unify around but

01:20:16.620 if we're not going to unify around that then uh then i don't know what we unify around do we just skip

01:20:21.580 over that and then say well let's unify around the fact that we all like guns and listen to country

01:20:26.380 music i mean that i mean that's great and everything but i don't think that we can unify around that

01:20:30.300 we have to unify around something more fundamental um so i think that has to be the first step matt

01:20:34.540 walsh is the author of the unholy trinity blocking the left's assault on life marriage and gender

01:20:41.260 are you uh more hopeful or less hopeful than you were let's say 12 months ago

01:20:48.700 um well i'm never hopeful i'm come on uh i i i what's going to happen to us

01:20:55.900 what's going to happen to us look down the look down the road and take a guess and i know it's

01:21:02.620 a guess but just take a guess what's coming i think we have uh a long and arduous road ahead of us

01:21:10.780 and uh i think that if we have any hope of reclaiming the culture whatever that means at this point

01:21:17.660 uh because it is lost to us right now let's be honest it's completely lost but if we have any hope of

01:21:21.740 reclaiming it it is going to take generations and our children you know and our and our grandchildren

01:21:27.980 are going to be the ones to you know carry carry the weight of that where this this is not you know

01:21:33.340 one of my one of my huge concerns about trump was that conservatives would would start to kind of

01:21:39.900 relax and figure oh well we already won everything is going to be fine now and that's not the case at

01:21:44.540 all what do you think is going to happen what do you think is going to happen to him how big

01:21:47.740 how big was last week well i think uh i don't know i mean i it's hard for me to believe that

01:21:57.820 it's kind of hard for me to see him actually being in the white house for the next four years i i don't

01:22:01.820 know it's just i have the same feeling as a lot of people that it's hard for me to i don't know what

01:22:07.340 four years of this looks like it's hard for me to see how we can make it through four years

01:22:10.940 and at any rate i mean uh there are only really two years for the republicans to do anything to

01:22:18.860 make any real inroads on any of these issues because i don't think they're going to own the

01:22:24.300 entire government after the the midterms and so they've got a lot of work to do and they haven't

01:22:29.420 done much as far as i can tell so but you know no matter what happens it's only it's that's just it's

01:22:35.260 all it's all political you know even if even if everything worked great and trump was signing

01:22:40.780 conservative laws left and right which i which he hasn't been and i don't think he will but

01:22:44.860 even if he did the culture is still a culture our institutions are still fundamentally

01:22:50.060 lost to us you know the media academia pop culture hollywood i mean give me an institution

01:22:56.700 give me an institution you believe in still

01:22:59.100 none i believe in i believe in in the institution of the family i mean uh but when i say that i

01:23:10.380 believe in in my family you know um but even the institution of the family itself in this country is

01:23:16.860 is in dire straits outside of that i mean what what institution can you believe in this is something

01:23:22.940 that the you know the godless left has infiltrated all of our institutions and they began that process

01:23:28.140 many decades ago and they've been incredibly effective at it and it's hard for me to look

01:23:32.780 at any institution in america and say well this institution is healthy strong ordered towards

01:23:38.220 you know god towards a higher power um i don't know like i can't it has been good talking to you

01:23:46.620 but you know what he's really when you read his when you read his blogs man i mean yeah look he is

01:23:52.300 really he's on target every time matt there's only probably small parts of this that are actually

01:23:56.940 solvable and i i think i'm trying to get i'd like to get you on board with my constitutional amendment

01:24:01.740 that would but we require one person one bathroom there shall not be any shared bathrooms for anyone

01:24:08.940 anywhere you go to a sporting event you're not with all guys you're with you because you get to go to

01:24:13.740 the bathroom by yourself pretty good ones i am totally on board with that i don't like sharing

01:24:19.660 bathrooms bathrooms with people anyway especially a sporting event where you're all like

01:24:23.420 where you have that trough thing that you're all like livestock around it so yeah i'm i'm wait a

01:24:28.860 minute that's i can get behind that that's not to drink out of no no no no no crap uh the name of the

01:24:36.220 the name of the book is um the unholy trinity blocking the left's assault on life marriage and gender

01:24:43.260 um and he is making the point a headline on the back of the book it's not just values reality itself

01:24:53.340 is under attack and that is true we've got to find our way back to reality and matt walsh will help you

01:25:02.540 do that it's available everywhere um the unholy trinity uh by matt walsh matt thanks for being on

01:25:09.260 we'll talk to you again soon i appreciate it thanks glenn thanks guys thanks glenn beck

01:25:16.460 want to see glenn live if you're coming to texas you can join us at mercury studios in dallas for a

01:25:23.340 taping of glenn's television show to reserve your seat email tickets at glennbeck.com with your

01:25:28.700 information that's tickets at glennbeck.com mercury

01:25:34.060 triple eight seven two seven back this is the glenn beck program i still don't have a good reason why

01:25:43.580 mo brooks health care bill wouldn't work i still i mean if you haven't heard mo brooks health care bill

01:25:49.580 here it is effective as did as of december 31st 2017 the patient protection and affordable care act

01:25:57.580 is repealed and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such act are restored or revived

01:26:04.140 as if such act had not been enacted period it's funny about that is even the one sentence bill

01:26:11.180 in washington is still really hard to understand yes but it is a hell of a lot better than 2000 pages

01:26:15.820 i'll say that here's one that i would like to suggest march 29th 2017 the supreme court decision

01:26:21.980 known as roe versus wade null and void as are all statutes pertaining to killing human beings while in

01:26:28.860 the womb period i mean i think yes give us a couple of seconds and let's work on a few things

01:26:37.500 we can boil it down for congress a few things that we can capture in a one line bill

01:26:45.900 we are the glenn beck program the glenn beck program imagine how much we could get done

01:27:01.580 if we reduced if we took mo brooks mo brooks did a health care bill effective as of december 31st 2017

01:27:09.980 the patient protection and affordable care act is repealed and the provisions of law amended or

01:27:15.260 repealed by such act are restored or revived as if such act had not been enacted period amen

01:27:23.340 there's how you started so i came up was it an actual prayer i was yeah no it is yeah yeah i mean

01:27:30.700 i came up with you know give us 10 minutes and we can come up with a you know with a few of them

01:27:36.860 supreme court decision knows roe versus wade null and void as are all statutes pertaining to killing

01:27:41.580 human beings while in the womb done i know that way nobody's saying i love these people who say 0.75

01:27:47.340 read the bill yeah you can read it everybody knows exactly what it is be some supreme court uh conflicts

01:27:53.740 uh with that particular yeah well that one is probably probably we could try i mean you could do something

01:27:58.700 like uh effective march 29th 2017 all employed citizens the united states of america with an income

01:28:04.300 greater than 40 grand yeah uh shall remit to the treasury 10 percent of their annual earnings once

01:28:10.300 per year uh that they are employed no exceptions no exemptions those earning less than 40 000 shall

01:28:17.420 remit nothing you imagine that oh you imagine that if that was our tax code yeah imagine what would

01:28:23.500 happen to our country it would be it would be so simplified you wouldn't have the the the tax fraud you

01:28:30.860 would have the cheating you all the money all the saved by probably have more revenue and without

01:28:38.460 you you would have not only have more revenue but all of the companies that spend all of this money

01:28:45.660 on lawyers and attorneys and tax uh every all of that stuff all of that money would be freed up for

01:28:52.940 investment yeah be huge boon to the economy it would be a huge one also um we did not uh uh

01:29:01.100 tie this to inflation so the government's gonna have to figure out how to get smaller and smaller

01:29:04.940 every year i love that i like that okay try this one on for size immediately upon the signing of

01:29:09.500 this bill all current immigration laws shall be strictly enforced and severe penalties and fines

01:29:14.620 shall be levied by any and all employers in violation of the law i think that's all we need to do

01:29:21.260 in addition to something you know maybe a border wall or fence just the fence and this just enforce the

01:29:27.980 laws we have and it's going to take care of the problem sanctuary cities being a good sanctuary

01:29:34.220 cities well that's all employers in violation of the law the city can be an employer too how about

01:29:38.460 this retroactive to fiscal year 2012 the speed limit in all 50 states is null and void

01:29:45.660 and local authorities shall remit reimbursements of any and all fines levied since then this one

01:29:53.340 sounds a little personal

01:29:58.140 how much would you i'm just trying to help humanity how much would you be getting back

01:30:02.220 back about eighty thousand dollars

01:30:06.700 about effective march 29th 2017 the united states congressman shall serve no more than six terms

01:30:11.740 12 total years and united states senators shall serve no more than two terms that's exactly what

01:30:17.100 i think it should be 12 years for both congress and senate and then you're done yeah and by the

01:30:21.420 way you have to you can't just put two terms in there because then they would increase the length

01:30:25.420 of the term yeah you have to put the years into you have to put the years of yes okay i like the

01:30:30.460 idea that again i love these people who say read the bill the bill so we enact this effective

01:30:37.260 immediately congress shall draft no legislation larger than one page you better put a font size in

01:30:45.580 there you better put a font size in there no kidding it'll be like uh willie wonko with the uh

01:30:51.260 yeah yeah magnifying glass by the end they'll be writing bills you have to have a microscope to see

01:30:55.580 it yeah all right here you go effective at the end of this week department of education

01:31:01.580 closed permanently do you have to say it like jackie gleason

01:31:07.100 i want it closed to the moon

01:31:11.580 and to be fair because obviously you're you're compromising here you're giving them to the end

01:31:14.940 of the week right that's right that's not ridiculous i mean that's plenty of notice for the

01:31:19.340 employees right plenty of notice right right that would be good federal reserve closed

01:31:27.980 would you give them to the end of the week or yeah no i'll give them to the end of the week yeah

01:31:31.740 no they're bankers as of right right now

01:31:36.780 about uh effective upon the signature of the president the environmental protection agency is

01:31:41.980 officially permanently

01:31:43.500 i like that i like that now there's an issue here maybe with free speech uh in the first

01:31:51.420 amendment but effective immediately any person's uttering the word consensus the phrases the debate

01:31:56.860 is over settled science or 97 of senate scientists agree as they relate to global warming or climate

01:32:02.700 change will be arrested and repeatedly poked with pickle forks i don't know constitution that might not

01:32:08.620 be yeah the word pickle fork does not appear in the constitution it's important to note that it

01:32:13.420 it doesn't so that doesn't mean and it means we not i mean it is a pickle fork so it may not

01:32:17.740 doesn't say we can't do it right it may not be inhumane it may be i mean that's kind of funny

01:32:23.180 everybody might just go i mean it's a pickle fork that's kind of it's not gonna hurt him that

01:32:26.540 it's a slight little poke it's just a little irritating it's nothing violent it's just a little

01:32:29.900 irritating it's a little pickles i i would propose i would propose one more and i'll give them till

01:32:35.500 april 1st on this one okay all right effective april 1st the rock and roll hall of fame will admit

01:32:41.100 the anglo-american rock band foreigner into its rightful place in the hall of fame or federal troops

01:32:47.980 will be deployed to cleveland to blow that stinking building to smithereens

01:32:53.020 then it would be closed closed closed why the anglo-american language because i wanted to 0.80

01:33:01.100 mention that they're both english and american it just it had to be said okay okay because they did

01:33:06.220 say they're rightful place too yes it is a rightful place it is i've got i've got three things to show

01:33:12.060 you all right uh but only time for one one is such a blast from the past on the difference between

01:33:20.620 america then and now that's this newspaper from the new york times you won't believe the stories

01:33:29.100 on the front page of the newspaper it's like a different country um this is a letter from calvin

01:33:37.100 coolidge that basically says this is what makes america great that's unbelievable or there's this

01:33:43.820 this this is not what it appears this is a holy bible as you will see from uh the 1700s

01:33:55.900 but it's actually not a holy bible it's something entirely different this is a disguise from the

01:34:04.940 1700s which one do you want to see because i can only do one well the cool we're doing a special on

01:34:11.180 coolidge next week so maybe we should hold the coolidge thing until next week that one kind of

01:34:15.180 makes sense uh and i don't know i mean the i'm i'm curious now on the bible thing well the bible

01:34:20.060 thing i mean that's one of the first ways that people smuggle drugs into the country probably so

01:34:24.060 let's take a look only jeffy would come up with that it actually is something that you are carrying

01:34:32.780 something it actually is but i'm going to have you guys decide what it is if you open it up you'll see

01:34:39.580 it's from the 1700s i'm sorry early 1800s the bible is earlier than when this was made but you'll see

01:34:47.180 a square is cut out the pages are the real bible but it's been glued together and there is a piece

01:34:54.220 of lamb skin on it can you tell me what this is a little hammer in there there's a cross witchcraft

01:35:03.820 um is that like a vampire killing yeah this is a early 1800s vampire killing yeah wow look at

01:35:13.580 the bible like that how bizarre is a i mean i can't i mean it's a hundred year old wow that is really

01:35:20.620 cool clove of garlic garlic it's a clove of garlic these were holy water you close that now here

01:35:27.420 here here are the stakes and the hammer you don't need to get that close to me with that thing please

01:35:32.940 wow isn't that wild those are really cool yes so that like the standard like that's really weird

01:35:38.380 stereotypical i love that way you kill vampires in every movie today that's really the same i mean

01:35:43.900 every one of those is the same yeah uh you know of the lore huh yeah now there is another one

01:35:49.420 um that we saw at auction this one is david barton's i told him i was reading something uh history and i

01:35:57.740 said david we have to get these now there's speculation that some of them um that were made

01:36:04.300 around the turn of the century were made because americans went oh this is hysterical this is great

01:36:10.780 we can make a fortune on these and we'll sell them as old and so they were they were faked around the

01:36:17.100 turn of the century for 1900 here in america so you have to be careful on you know is this real is

01:36:23.900 this not um we just found one with an old gun from the early 1700s with the silver bullets wow

01:36:35.900 i mean it's just great it's great i mean they were serious so this was yeah this was this was

01:36:40.460 this would be weird a vampire hunter's kit of going in and trying to find the vampire

01:37:34.860 going through it and looking at it and and uh i'm like look how far we've come i mean to where we would

01:37:41.580 believe in vampires and then i realized wow we really haven't come that far have we really haven't i mean

01:37:49.100 we haven't really made it on the truth front yeah i'm thinking of the last year and a half or two
