The Glenn Beck Program - 6⧸7⧸17 - Rethinking War On Terror

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, On Demand.

00:00:05.900 The Fusion of Entertainment and Enlightenment.

00:00:30.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:35.900 Welcome and glad you joined the show.

00:00:38.100 My name is Mike Broomhead.

00:00:38.960 In for Glenn today.

00:00:39.900 A lot to talk about, obviously, what's happening around the world and terrorist attacks.

00:00:43.800 Again, yesterday we now found out that in Paris at the Notre Dame Cathedral, there was a terrorist attack.

00:00:50.260 A man claiming to be a soldier of the caliphate attacked police officers and one that was then shot.

00:00:55.100 We'll talk about that for sure.

00:00:56.280 And then we're going to talk to an expert right here in the building on what we're seeing in the Middle East fighting the Sunni-Shia battle that rages on with a terrorist attack.

00:01:05.160 A pair of terrorist attacks that killed a lot of people and an attack on the parliament and of all places, Tehran.

00:01:11.000 So in the first part of the first hour, now if they are attacking in Tehran, is anybody safe?

00:01:16.460 Is this part of a tribal war between the Sunni and the Shia more than it is anything else with the ISIS terrorist attacks?

00:01:22.480 This shows you the level of fighting that will go on.

00:01:27.100 And we can't, I guess it can't be stressed enough.

00:01:29.940 If you look at any of the divisions in churches in America, we don't see anything like this.

00:01:34.880 We see a lot of dissension.

00:01:36.400 We see anger.

00:01:37.160 We see hurt feelings.

00:01:38.420 We have a lot of theological arguments between denominations in America, depending on who you are and what theology you subscribe to.

00:01:47.060 But we don't stoop to the level of murder, and this is now what we're seeing in this battle, and it happened now in all places in the nation of Iran.

00:01:55.360 If there was one nation you would think ISIS wouldn't be attacking, until you hear the details.

00:01:59.600 So we'll get that coming up here in just a few minutes.

00:02:01.900 But some of the other headlines, James Comey to testify tomorrow, and if you watched any of the cable news shows this morning or last night, they are just salivating about this testimony.

00:02:11.540 And it was so funny to see a little bit this morning as I was getting ready to come to the station and flip in channels that some of the cable news networks who are obviously so far against the president of the United States,

00:02:24.860 and to be honest with you, to be fair, against anything on the right side of the aisle, giving advice to the Republicans on the committee where Comey will testify and how they really have an opportunity to do the right thing.

00:02:36.460 And I thought, how funny it is that those people, of all people, would be giving advice to anybody on that committee.

00:02:43.720 There's not an ounce of fairness that I've seen in a long time in what we're seeing in traditional media.

00:02:48.600 I'm a little bit surprised, I've been surprised at CNN, that they are completely in the tank against the president, against all credibility in any other issue.

00:02:58.620 There's a couple of, later, later in the show, there is a story about tourism, international tourism into the United States.

00:03:06.600 A report is out that it is up 4% in the month of April.

00:03:09.460 They're surprised because they thought because of the travel ban that the president was calling for,

00:03:13.200 and the way it was grumblings around the world, that international tourism may take a hit here in America.

00:03:19.000 So one report says, look at this, we're very surprised that tourism is up in America.

00:03:23.260 Then you go to the CNN story, and CNN says, the president's agenda hurting tourism.

00:03:28.020 And it's the same report.

00:03:29.940 They're writing a story from the same report.

00:03:33.480 So it's basically who you believe.

00:03:35.700 So that's, again, are you getting accurate information?

00:03:38.600 Well, yeah, I mean, they're not lying.

00:03:40.320 Is it a jaded or an agenda-driven story?

00:03:42.520 A lot of times, it absolutely is.

00:03:44.400 That's why sources are so important.

00:03:46.400 It's so important to have a well-rounded look at what's happening in a story.

00:03:50.480 You can read a story.

00:03:51.700 I'll give you an example.

00:03:52.680 You could read a story about one of the attacks, and you can get it from Al Jazeera.

00:03:58.280 And what do you think they're going to say about the attacks in Manchester or the attacks in London

00:04:02.740 or even the attack in Paris yesterday versus what you're going to hear on, let's say, Fox News in America?

00:04:09.700 There's a huge difference, or the BBC, how they're going to report it.

00:04:14.020 So the attacks in Tehran, and Theresa May, her comments about changing human rights laws,

00:04:24.060 you're going to hear some audio that, if you only hear the back half of the clip, sounds ominous.

00:04:30.160 When you hear it in its entirety, and it's only about 14 seconds long,

00:04:33.460 she's talking about protecting the people of Great Britain.

00:04:35.580 They've got an election coming up.

00:04:37.180 She's against an opponent that she's predicted to win, but they don't know because of this Labour Party leader.

00:04:42.200 But the Labour Party leader, Corbyn, now it's been discovered, has delivered a speech

00:04:48.160 and given some comments during an anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian rally,

00:04:54.880 which anti-Semitic statements were screamed from the crowd in cheers.

00:04:58.500 So is this the future of Great Britain?

00:05:01.540 And that's really what they're voting on in the next few days.

00:05:04.180 So we've got to talk about the NSA leakers' parents.

00:05:07.100 Her parents have spoken out about how endangered she felt

00:05:11.060 that she was worried that they were going to make her disappear.

00:05:13.760 So they're now making excuses for what she did.

00:05:16.720 They admit that they don't have really any idea what she does for a living

00:05:19.920 because she can't talk about it with her security clearance.

00:05:22.000 But the more we learn about this girl, the more we learn about Reality Winner,

00:05:26.500 the more we realize that she was so far left and agenda-driven,

00:05:32.620 I am wondering when inside the intelligence gathering community

00:05:37.020 it's going to be asked how she ever maintained that high-level security clearance

00:05:41.680 or at least a job within the White House.

00:05:44.280 She has been trying to subvert that on social media.

00:05:47.220 She has been very active in speaking out against the president,

00:05:50.020 insulting him by name, and talking about the agendas

00:05:53.040 of even standing side-by-side with the Iranians.

00:05:55.740 So this, I think, in the coming days is going to be a much bigger story.

00:05:59.280 The prison time she faces is no joke.

00:06:01.660 I mean, she is really facing some serious, serious prison time.

00:06:05.580 And one of the, Rand Paul said that the Republicans should keep their promise,

00:06:10.200 and I agree with Rand Paul on this,

00:06:12.360 that the Republicans should keep their promise

00:06:14.200 and repeal the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare.

00:06:17.560 Not fix it, repeal it, and replace it like they promised during the elections.

00:06:22.380 I think that the leadership, what's difficult about the leadership in the Republican Party

00:06:26.680 is they are afraid to make a mistake.

00:06:28.700 And everybody knows when you make decisions out of fear,

00:06:31.980 it's always a bad decision.

00:06:33.880 That decisions need to be made in confidence,

00:06:35.940 where we're going to do the right thing,

00:06:37.980 if it ends up blowing up in our face, so be it,

00:06:40.060 we're going to do it because it's the right thing.

00:06:41.860 You ran on a campaign of repeal and replace.

00:06:44.840 Every Republican was doing it.

00:06:46.280 By the time the election came around,

00:06:47.760 they all were on board.

00:06:49.160 Repeal and replace.

00:06:50.280 We have a plan.

00:06:51.440 Well, now they don't.

00:06:53.880 And Rand Paul said that.

00:06:55.040 The reason I say that is now another major insurance carrier

00:06:58.840 is pulling out of the health care exchanges in the state of Ohio.

00:07:01.660 That's happening across the country.

00:07:03.840 This is imploding.

00:07:05.040 That's what's so fascinating about this.

00:07:06.860 The Republicans can't get out of their own way on this

00:07:10.040 when all you have to do is look at the evidence of it imploding.

00:07:12.900 The people that are screaming, save our health care,

00:07:15.500 the answer to that rallying cry is, what health care?

00:07:19.860 What health care do you have?

00:07:21.420 And yet they don't ask the question.

00:07:23.520 They don't turn the tables.

00:07:25.280 Why doesn't somebody in the Republican Party,

00:07:27.540 when asked about repeal and replace,

00:07:30.080 go after Nancy Pelosi?

00:07:32.020 How is Nancy Pelosi the spokesman still for the Democrats?

00:07:35.360 She's the one that got us Obamacare.

00:07:38.080 How is it that she gets to speak

00:07:39.880 and criticize what the Republicans are doing?

00:07:42.900 She ramrodded this thing through.

00:07:44.980 She was the one with that smile on her face,

00:07:47.420 said that members of the House of Representatives

00:07:49.300 had to vote for it to find out what's in it.

00:07:52.360 I mean, she said that statement alone

00:07:54.480 should have been the laughingstock of the Congress.

00:07:57.520 We now know that every prediction of the horrible things

00:07:59.980 that could happen with Obamacare are coming true,

00:08:02.320 some of them faster than anybody thought.

00:08:04.380 It's costing more money.

00:08:05.680 It's not covering as many people as it's supposed to.

00:08:08.200 Nobody wants to sign up for it.

00:08:09.780 It's way too expensive.

00:08:10.980 And now insurance carriers are dropping out,

00:08:13.240 which means you don't have all the choices they promised.

00:08:15.800 It used to be that it was billed as

00:08:18.040 they're going to give you multiple choices.

00:08:19.640 If you like your doctor, you keep your doctor.

00:08:21.320 If you like your health care plan,

00:08:22.460 you keep your health care plan.

00:08:23.840 None of that came true.

00:08:25.360 So with the failure that this is,

00:08:27.700 the fact that they can't get America on board with a plan

00:08:30.660 shows you that there's, A, a problem

00:08:32.700 with the way they, public relations,

00:08:34.800 and how they convey a message to the American people.

00:08:37.040 They keep talking about this three-bucket approach

00:08:39.700 to what they're going to do.

00:08:41.520 And you've got to pass bucket number one

00:08:43.100 and then do number two

00:08:44.000 because of the way the Senate rules work.

00:08:46.180 There's no guarantee if you get bucket number one

00:08:48.500 that either one or the other two are going to get passed.

00:08:50.240 But I'll be honest with you,

00:08:51.520 very brutally honest with you,

00:08:53.320 I do this for a living.

00:08:55.560 I'm immersed in this every day.

00:08:57.820 I couldn't explain those three buckets to you

00:08:59.800 if my life depended on it.

00:09:01.820 I have no idea what's in those three buckets.

00:09:04.600 And I'm looking for the answers on a daily basis.

00:09:07.840 How do you think the average American feels

00:09:09.880 when they're told, we've got a plan?

00:09:12.280 Well, tell us what it is.

00:09:14.420 Get the people on board.

00:09:15.880 I guarantee you with an election year next year,

00:09:18.240 if the people get on board,

00:09:20.240 even Democrats in moderate districts

00:09:22.440 are going to jump on board

00:09:24.000 because they don't want to lose their jobs.

00:09:26.980 And they just aren't able to get out of their own way.

00:09:29.740 It's shocking to me.

00:09:31.240 Also in the headlines, Jeff Sessions

00:09:34.420 had offered to resign his position.

00:09:37.840 And they're being very quiet in the Department of Justice.

00:09:41.240 Sean Spicer says he can't say whether or not

00:09:43.800 the president has confidence in Jeff Sessions

00:09:45.620 as attorney general.

00:09:46.900 So he hasn't resigned yet.

00:09:48.240 I don't think that the letter of resignation

00:09:49.480 was ever submitted or was ever accepted.

00:09:52.520 But the offer was on the table

00:09:53.860 that Jeff Sessions said he would resign that position.

00:09:56.120 So that's kind of a big story today as well.

00:09:58.320 Now, in a moment, we have a local expert here.

00:10:00.920 His name is Cal.

00:10:01.500 He is Muslim himself, works here in the building

00:10:04.340 and is really able to help us understand

00:10:07.760 why ISIS would have an attack, a pair of attacks,

00:10:11.420 big attacks on parliament

00:10:13.060 and by the statue of Khomeini in the square in Tehran.

00:10:16.680 These were obviously big political statements.

00:10:18.780 Why in the world would ISIS be attacking Iran

00:10:21.560 when we would all think that the Iranians

00:10:23.380 are the ones that are training and arming

00:10:25.600 and funding terrorism across the world?

00:10:27.900 You would think they would be an ally.

00:10:29.460 Well, that's not exactly the case.

00:10:30.900 We'll explain why coming up here in just a few moments.

00:10:33.520 If you're a social media user,

00:10:34.920 I'm on Twitter at Broomhead Show.

00:10:36.860 I'd love for you to reach out.

00:10:38.180 We'll kind of interact that way on social media.

00:10:40.200 I'd love to do that.

00:10:41.180 My name is Mike Broomhead.

00:10:42.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:10:43.420 I'll be back.

00:10:43.860 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:10:48.540 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:10:49.240 All right, we're back.

00:10:59.700 And here's, we know that the attack yesterday,

00:11:02.260 there was a man in Paris at the Notre Dame Cathedral

00:11:06.420 that attacked a police officer

00:11:08.680 and making the claim that he was a soldier of the caliphate.

00:11:11.520 And that doesn't surprise anybody.

00:11:12.900 It was, you know, that you would have one,

00:11:14.780 he would attack there.

00:11:15.740 That would make sense.

00:11:17.000 But we also know of a pair of attacks

00:11:18.440 that happened in Iran, in the square,

00:11:21.260 the Khomeini statue, also in the parliament in Iran.

00:11:24.180 That surprises a lot of people.

00:11:26.020 So Kal El-Sabai is with me.

00:11:27.640 You work here in the building.

00:11:28.840 I do.

00:11:29.340 And give me your impression of why this would happen.

00:11:33.740 I was shocked that it would happen in Tehran

00:11:35.380 because you would think they would be allied in some way.

00:11:37.880 Right, you know, a lot of people say,

00:11:40.620 and it's no secret really,

00:11:42.280 that Iran funds a lot of what ISIS does

00:11:45.160 and a lot of the other groups as well.

00:11:47.560 The rift would be that there's a rift in Islam.

00:11:51.240 There's Shia and the Sunni, the Sunni are a majority.

00:11:54.360 And ISIS are radical Sunnis.

00:11:58.260 So they are against everything that the Shias stand for.

00:12:02.740 The major rift in the Shia is that after Muhammad died,

00:12:06.840 the next, I guess you would call it,

00:12:08.700 apostle to take over was Abu Bakr.

00:12:10.860 And that's what the Sunnis believe.

00:12:12.320 But the Shia believe it should have been his nephew, Ali.

00:12:14.740 And there's a whole kind of rift there

00:12:16.120 in a little bit more detail of what happened there.

00:12:17.800 But that's the difference in beliefs there.

00:12:19.580 And the Sunnis, especially the extreme radicals,

00:12:22.120 believe that the Shia are complete blasphemies.

00:12:25.100 So they attacked the Khomeini's shrine, I believe,

00:12:28.640 the Ayatollah Khomeini's shrine.

00:12:30.100 And that's kind of where that comes from.

00:12:31.700 So why would Iran fund or help them if there's such a rift between them?

00:12:37.400 Why would they help embolden them when they know that they would battle?

00:12:41.420 I mean, is there a reason that you can think of other than they are?

00:12:43.780 I don't think they would expect an attack to come from ISIS.

00:12:47.560 But I wouldn't know why they would fund something that they would think would come back and bite them.

00:12:52.080 You know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, maybe,

00:12:54.200 is the idea that they're out there doing the work that they would want against the West.

00:12:58.080 But when you saw the story, how surprised were you that it happened in Iran?

00:13:05.760 Pretty surprised.

00:13:06.900 You wouldn't think that, it kind of says that nobody's off limits.

00:13:10.200 I wouldn't think there would be an attack in Iran, not in my personal opinion.

00:13:14.120 The opinion of people, the questions that a lot of Americans ask,

00:13:17.780 especially Americans ask, are where are Muslims around the world?

00:13:21.360 If the Muslim faith truly doesn't believe in what these radicals are doing,

00:13:25.860 they don't think that this is the right thing to do,

00:13:27.820 where are those people speaking out?

00:13:29.940 Well, there are people like you, my friend in Arizona, Zutty Jasser.

00:13:34.160 What do people of the Muslim faith around the world think of these radicals, these Islamists?

00:13:38.940 I mean, your average everyday Muslim, myself being, I mean, I'm not a perfect Muslim.

00:13:42.860 I'm an American Muslim.

00:13:44.040 I was born in Cairo, Egypt.

00:13:45.500 I came here when I was young.

00:13:47.120 My dad came here for opportunity.

00:13:48.480 I grew up here.

00:13:49.480 I practiced my faith.

00:13:51.400 I'm a very faithful person.

00:13:52.900 So there's plenty of people that speak out.

00:13:54.660 You just really don't see media coverage of it.

00:13:56.280 There's a lot, actually.

00:13:57.660 Lots of different organizations speak out.

00:13:59.300 Lots of personal people speak out.

00:14:02.320 But you don't see much of it really out there.

00:14:05.060 I guess it doesn't really sell or just not really headline news.

00:14:08.240 I mean, recently over the weekend, there was a pretty big, I guess you can call it a gathering

00:14:13.360 or a coalition of Middle Eastern countries.

00:14:15.020 I think Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, I think Yemen just jumped on board.

00:14:21.420 And then other countries, which kind of don't make sense, like the Maldives and things, have banned against Qatar

00:14:26.620 because Qatar is also one of those countries that, I guess, openly denies it.

00:14:32.120 But it's kind of unspoken that they do fund a lot of terrorism as well between ISIS and Al-Qaeda and Taliban, things like that.

00:14:39.980 They have cut ties with them.

00:14:41.620 They've sent all their diplomats out of the countries back home.

00:14:44.620 And they told any other citizens of Qatari residents in these countries that they have, I think, two weeks to head back.

00:14:50.500 And it's kind of an ultimatum for Qatar to get their act together and be serious about stopping this.

00:14:56.000 So we were surprised, reading the stories after the attacks in London on the London Bridge,

00:15:00.920 we were surprised to hear about all of the imams that would not do the prayer services for the dead terrorists.

00:15:07.900 That doesn't surprise you then?

00:15:09.700 That's more normal within the community?

00:15:11.640 No, I mean, the radical beliefs of dying as a martyr is like the ultimate way to go.

00:15:17.300 You know, it's the highest honor to die as a martyr.

00:15:19.200 So these guys think that they're martyring themselves in what they believe is what, you know, God wants them to do.

00:15:23.460 In reality, it's the exact opposite.

00:15:24.680 So the fact that the imams are not praying for their deaths is a huge thing

00:15:29.000 because to pray over someone's death is like it's almost mandatory when every day there's a prayer.

00:15:34.780 I mean, there's five prayers a day in Islam.

00:15:36.720 And at the end of the day, the last prayer, they usually save it for anybody who's died for that day.

00:15:41.800 So they pray on their bodies as to kind of rest in peace and, you know, send them off.

00:15:47.120 So the fact that they deny that is a huge statement.

00:15:50.200 So do you think we're going to see more of that?

00:15:52.000 I thought the minds of people in Europe, especially Great Britain, would change when that bombing happened at that concert because it was filled with mostly young people, young girls especially.

00:16:03.320 And it doesn't seem to me, it seems to be human nature.

00:16:05.640 If you're going to attack our children, that's a no-brainer that people are going to be against it.

00:16:09.940 Do you think that they're starting to change their minds about speaking out where they feel more comfortable now?

00:16:14.540 They feel safer saying we are not going to do this?

00:16:17.120 Because their lives could be in danger by refusing to do these prayers.

00:16:20.060 Right, yeah.

00:16:20.580 No, I think you're going to see, and I've already seen it, I mean, on social media, it says that a lot of people speaking out, you know, social media campaigns like not in my name, not in my religion, you know, I'm not a jihadi, you know.

00:16:32.780 I think you're going to see hopefully a lot more of that.

00:16:35.040 And I've seen a bit more.

00:16:36.700 And I think the more these things happen, you're definitely going to hear more about it.

00:16:40.420 So are the tables, in your mind, are the tables turning here in America as well where people feel safer or people not feel safe in some cases speaking out?

00:16:49.140 I think it's, from what my opinion, I see in kind of a 50-50, I see a lot of people that are afraid to and that a lot of people that are very vocal about it, you know.

00:16:59.400 Considering the current climate in the country, there's a lot of, you know, with due justice, angst and anger towards Muslims.

00:17:08.180 But there's also a lot of people coming out in defense and also claiming that, yeah, not all Muslims are like this, you know, and it's good to see that.

00:17:14.860 Do you understand and how do you defend against the suspicion of all Muslims based on what we see since 9-11, even before that with the attacks on the World Trade Center during the Clinton administration?

00:17:29.240 Do you understand the fear from people of ignorance, really, that don't know any more than what we see?

00:17:34.180 And then how do you defend against that?

00:17:35.940 No, I absolutely understand it.

00:17:37.080 You know, it's warranted.

00:17:38.720 Look who's attacking.

00:17:39.760 It makes sense to fear that and be aware of it and be afraid of it.

00:17:46.400 And I have no problem, you know.

00:17:47.520 I go to the airport and I don't look at it, obviously, you know.

00:17:50.720 But as soon as they read my name, I'm always randomly selected.

00:17:53.440 Fine.

00:17:53.840 I mean, I understand.

00:17:54.860 Do what you got to do.

00:17:55.880 I got nothing to hide.

00:17:56.680 And I think if any other person feels that way, it should be fine, you know.

00:18:00.320 You always worry a little bit about the small minority of, I guess, our own version of extreme racism on this side of the globe where, I guess, people feel a little bit more emboldened to come out and be a bit more aggressive towards things that they don't agree with like Islam.

00:18:20.560 And you just hope that, you know, more people will understand and do the research on their own and kind of study and not just take what's fed to them, hopefully.

00:18:30.260 Do you think that relations in America are getting better?

00:18:33.580 I mean, do you think that the ability for people like yourself, because you're an easygoing guy, to speak out, do you think that it's helping that people are beginning to understand that it's not one size fits all, that this is a radical faction of your faith?

00:18:45.720 I think so.

00:18:46.460 I think for the most part, people do understand that, you know.

00:18:48.700 It depends on, I mean, look, if you really want to know and you really, like, you see what's happening in the world and you really want to understand, I think people who are educated and want to know the truth will go find it.

00:19:00.380 And I think if you're just going to, you know, take what's fed to you, even if it sounds ridiculous, you're, you know, I don't think people like that really want to know.

00:19:09.260 So I feel like the majority do want to know and will understand what the reality is.

00:19:13.300 I appreciate the insight.

00:19:14.380 I do have your willingness to speak out.

00:19:16.020 Cal Al-Sabae, he works here in the building with us.

00:19:17.900 He's a great guy and I really appreciate the time.

00:19:20.300 Coming up in a few moments, audio, Theresa May wants to change human rights laws to protect the citizens of Great Britain.

00:19:25.540 You'll hear the audio coming up here in a few moments.

00:19:28.020 Three on one.

00:19:32.640 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:35.940 Mercury.

00:19:39.840 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:41.940 All right, thanks for being here.

00:19:45.340 Mike Broomhead in for Glenn today.

00:19:47.120 We got to talk about Theresa May.

00:19:48.740 She has made some statements about what they're going to do about human rights and how they're going to protect the British citizens.

00:19:56.060 There's a big election coming up.

00:19:57.300 They're saying her shrinking poll numbers.

00:19:59.080 She was out in front pretty far, but now the labor leader may catch her.

00:20:02.200 And, you know, there's a lot to be said about the person that's challenging her.

00:20:06.500 There's Jeremy Corbyn.

00:20:07.600 He is now it's found out that he has attended some anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian, but mostly anti-Israel rallies where he addressed the crowd.

00:20:18.100 A lot of anti-Semitic statements being made.

00:20:20.020 And to a faction, to some people in Great Britain, that is something that they want more of.

00:20:26.280 We, as a nation, and as a nation of Great Britain, they have been an ally of Israel as well.

00:20:31.820 Although we've been the closest ally to Israel in the world.

00:20:35.800 But when the terrorist attacks are happening now, it's hard to ignore, it's impossible to ignore the religious angle of this.

00:20:45.560 That the Islamists are using what they believe is their religious right.

00:20:49.260 And the reason why it's important to know the reasons why someone does something is if you're going to battle against it, that's going to be how it's going to happen.

00:20:56.860 But in America, what you're about to hear may seem very ominous.

00:21:00.640 When you hear this soundbite in its entirety, when Theresa May is talking about human rights.

00:21:06.640 But what she's talking about is protecting the citizens of Great Britain.

00:21:10.380 So she was addressing a crowd of people.

00:21:13.340 And this is what she said about protecting the British people.

00:21:15.960 I mean longer prison sentences for those convicted of terrorist offenses.

00:21:21.560 I mean making it easier for the authorities to deport foreign terrorist suspects back to their own country.

00:21:27.660 And I mean doing more to restrict the freedom and movements of terrorist suspects.

00:21:36.060 When we have enough evidence to know they are a threat, but not enough evidence to prosecute them in full in court.

00:21:44.760 And if our human rights laws stop us from doing it, we'll change the laws so we can do it.

00:21:52.200 So there you have it.

00:21:56.320 We're going to change human rights laws.

00:21:57.720 Well of course people across the world say that's the last time I'll go to Great Britain.

00:22:00.320 I'm not going to go to England anymore.

00:22:01.520 I'm not going to.

00:22:02.260 Well there may be those that are far left that feel that way.

00:22:05.180 But in the end, is she saying that we have laws about, you know, here in America.

00:22:10.760 The temporary travel ban that's being argued that will go to the Supreme Court.

00:22:15.660 Where President Trump wants to argue with the Supreme Court that the travel ban that has been rewritten is constitutional.

00:22:22.360 That conversation is much the same as this one here.

00:22:25.820 And what is interesting in our country with that argument is that the court of appeals that shot down the second version of the travel ban.

00:22:35.440 Didn't say that the verbiage in the law was unconstitutional.

00:22:39.340 Not at all.

00:22:39.940 What they said was they believed the president's words about a Muslim ban earlier was the grounds for him to use this in the wrong way to fulfill that promise or that desire.

00:22:52.500 Therefore they deemed the law unconstitutional.

00:22:54.620 That's why it's going to the Supreme Court.

00:22:56.900 And it seems like it's very flimsy.

00:22:58.920 It seems very political for a judge in an appeals court or judges in an appeals court to make these decisions.

00:23:04.120 The interesting thing about it is how many Americans would say we have a right to know, we have a responsibility, our government has a responsibility to do the best they can to know who we are accepting.

00:23:17.080 We have always been a benevolent nation.

00:23:18.740 I believe that with all of my heart that we should be a nation of immigrants, that we should be a place of refuge, we should be where the world turns, we are the world's superpower, but we are also the most benevolent nation in the world.

00:23:30.080 At the same time, when you realize that the enemy is doing things, you alter how you do things.

00:23:35.840 We've done it in the way we fly.

00:23:37.520 We now secure the cockpit door.

00:23:39.400 You can't get into that anymore.

00:23:41.100 We now know that there are rules in place about how we get through security.

00:23:44.700 When you're on an airplane, we take our shoes off to clear security.

00:23:47.880 We do things differently now because of what the suspects, what the attackers have done, and how they have changed how we must do things.

00:23:55.620 Now, the ban on having laptop computers coming into this country from some country, they have to be stowed underneath.

00:24:02.120 They can't be on your lap because they could be used as a bomb.

00:24:04.900 All of this is based on intelligence and the way that the enemy is acting, and we're reacting to that.

00:24:11.320 When you see people driving down the streets and running people over, well, for the first time, and this may have happened before,

00:24:19.120 but the election or the inauguration this time around, the streets all the way around the perimeter of the National Mall,

00:24:25.740 all of the streets around a very big perimeter were blocked off.

00:24:29.140 The intersections were blocked off with buses or dump trucks parked too deep, and they were perpendicular across the intersections.

00:24:37.460 No car was going to run through those intersections to get anywhere close to the National Mall to run people over within that secure perimeter.

00:24:44.480 That didn't mean that all of those people were going into the event, but that was that closed-off area around that.

00:24:50.340 That was a direct reaction to the way the terrorists are behaving.

00:24:54.220 So we have been a nation of refuge, but when we find out that the terrorists that wish to do us harm are infiltrating and pretending to be refugees,

00:25:03.820 how is it a lack of human rights, how is it a lack of sensitivity to say we need to have a better vetting process of who we are accepting into this country?

00:25:14.480 Now, we know that the attackers in Great Britain, the ones on the London Bridge just the other day,

00:25:20.860 that two of them were British citizens.

00:25:23.380 Parents were refugees.

00:25:26.840 Now, that doesn't mean that all refugees are bad, but it is something that needs to be addressed.

00:25:33.120 So if Theresa May is going to say to the world,

00:25:35.920 if we need to change our human rights laws, we'll change the laws, that sounds ominous.

00:25:39.920 Just that soundbite sounds ominous.

00:25:42.440 When you take that soundbite in its entirety, and she said we must protect the British people

00:25:46.860 when we have evidence of wrongdoing, but we can't criminally convict.

00:25:50.860 You know, here in America, we are blessed because we have an immigration problem.

00:25:55.480 People want to come here, and there are good people that we should accept.

00:26:00.200 But how are we doing at making sure that we're accepting good people

00:26:03.960 and doing our best to keep those that wish to do us harm out?

00:26:07.300 That's always been the immigration question.

00:26:10.020 Who stays? Who goes?

00:26:11.580 We've done a horrible job with our visas.

00:26:13.820 We've done watching and maintaining the people that are on them and overstaying them.

00:26:17.180 We do a terrible job of making it easier for good people to come here,

00:26:21.380 whether it's on a visa to work or to get on a path to citizenship.

00:26:24.420 We don't do that well enough.

00:26:26.540 And we could do a much better job of it as well.

00:26:29.580 Then you put that together with the poorest border

00:26:31.720 that no one in the last eight years has done anything to secure.

00:26:35.280 Then you understand why the American people are upset.

00:26:39.000 Well, if we take that, now you look at what's going on in Great Britain,

00:26:43.580 and there are factions within their government that hate the idea of a vetting process

00:26:49.520 or what they would do about refugees to protect citizens.

00:26:52.920 It is entrenched there much deeper than it is here.

00:26:58.500 And so it's an uphill battle.

00:26:59.960 When you look at the difference here in America,

00:27:02.640 you have somebody like, let's say, Theresa May,

00:27:05.540 who is saying we're going to make sure that we know who's coming

00:27:08.040 and we're going to do what we have to do to protect our citizens.

00:27:10.620 And then you've got an opponent that is saying that anti-Semitic statements

00:27:16.240 going to anti-Israel rallies, it seems like a no-brainer in America

00:27:20.780 which candidate would become the winner.

00:27:23.520 But if you look at the polling and how it's closing there,

00:27:26.680 it's a toss-up of which way that's going to go.

00:27:30.160 So the ideology of that nation is changing,

00:27:34.480 but the reason it's changing is they realize tolerance is admirable.

00:27:39.400 But blindly allowing people to run the show

00:27:43.780 and then change the way you do things

00:27:45.740 and then either support or defend or turn a blind eye

00:27:50.580 to things like we're seeing right now is ludicrous.

00:27:55.240 When you are, and I hate to keep harping on this,

00:27:57.680 but when you are detonating a bomb in a very big area of a concert

00:28:02.980 where you know it's occupied by mostly young girls,

00:28:06.180 the issue becomes very, very dire

00:28:10.500 and that's when people begin to think they will attack anyone.

00:28:15.200 Our children aren't safe, nobody's safe.

00:28:18.440 And so maybe the tides are turning

00:28:20.260 that they've always had an attitude of tolerance

00:28:22.740 and they've always felt as if they need to be very tolerant,

00:28:26.900 give everybody the benefit of the doubt, people are good at heart

00:28:29.420 and in the end what they're finding out is that there's a lot of evil in the world,

00:28:33.280 that it doesn't matter who you are or how tolerant you are,

00:28:35.800 that there are people out there that just because of your way of life will kill you.

00:28:39.940 That doesn't mean everyone, but you've got to do a better job.

00:28:44.140 If they know that the refugees are being infiltrated by evildoers,

00:28:50.260 why is it a bad thing to say,

00:28:52.160 we're going to do our best to make sure we weed them out?

00:28:55.760 If we've accepted people into this country that we know are radicalized

00:28:59.860 and they're traveling to nations like Libya for training

00:29:02.440 or they're sneaking into Syria for some kind of training to be a jihadi,

00:29:06.280 they're espousing jihadi ideas and thoughts

00:29:09.260 and trying to get people converted to their radical ideas.

00:29:13.980 What can we do about that?

00:29:15.620 I don't know why anybody would be afraid to address that.

00:29:18.620 In America, it seems ominous we're going to end people's human rights.

00:29:21.440 It's we have a lot of rights in this country that we can make sure people are protected

00:29:26.980 and their rights are protected and at the same time keep us safe.

00:29:30.360 Just are we willing to do that?

00:29:31.960 That's always been the question.

00:29:34.460 I mentioned earlier in the show that there is a new information out on international tourism.

00:29:41.200 The fear was when the president called for a Muslim ban,

00:29:44.260 which he admits now he said and has changed it now.

00:29:47.860 It's not a religious test.

00:29:48.840 It is a ban on people that would come here that are bad people.

00:29:52.040 It's not a religious test.

00:29:53.760 The fear was that international tourism into the U.S., they would boycott the U.S.

00:29:58.560 Well, I've got some firsthand knowledge of something like this

00:30:01.660 based on an immigration law in the state I come from

00:30:04.380 and what people said would be an end to tourism or a damage to tourism.

00:30:09.280 It wasn't.

00:30:10.060 Well, this report is out about tourism in America, people coming here internationally.

00:30:14.440 And if you look at one story, it says the president didn't affect it at all.

00:30:20.180 You read another story and it says, oh, things are dismal.

00:30:22.980 Who's right?

00:30:23.720 That's more the look at.

00:30:24.740 This is how the media is covering it.

00:30:25.920 We'll do that before we get out of this hour.

00:30:27.680 Again, Twitter users, I'm at Broomhead Show.

00:30:30.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:30:31.420 I'm Mike Broomhead.

00:30:32.600 And I'll be back.

00:30:33.200 All right, coming up in hour number two of the show, reality winner.

00:30:50.080 She is the accused White House leaker.

00:30:51.900 She's been facing a lot of time in prison.

00:30:53.940 We're going to talk about the prison time she is facing.

00:30:56.320 We'll learn a little bit more about her.

00:30:57.960 There was a poll out from glennbeck.com and Glenn put up on Twitter asking what are some

00:31:04.540 of the most egregious things she has tweeted.

00:31:06.360 We're going to talk about four of the things that she has tweeted about this while having

00:31:09.820 a security clearance, which she got under the Obama administration, still working in the

00:31:13.780 Trump White House, saying horrible things about the president himself, about white people.

00:31:19.060 She called whiteness terrorism, supporting the people of Iran.

00:31:22.560 And so she has said some pretty inflammatory things, to say the least, while maintaining

00:31:27.380 a high-level security clearance and now being accused of taking top-secret documents and

00:31:32.700 giving them over to the media.

00:31:34.320 Her parents spoke out.

00:31:35.680 I'll tell you what they had to say as well, and in defense of their daughter.

00:31:39.740 That will be coming up in the next hour.

00:31:41.680 Also, we'll talk about James Comey's testimony in hour number two of the show.

00:31:46.520 International tourism.

00:31:48.140 The suspicion was, you know, and I agree with the premise.

00:31:51.380 Everything the president of the United States says matters, and it's fair, and this is where

00:31:57.140 I want to tread lightly with people, because I need to be fair about this.

00:32:02.240 I was very critical of what President Obama said about law enforcement and his knee-jerk reaction

00:32:07.980 to things about the police acting stupidly in one occasion.

00:32:12.200 And what was interesting about that was he spoke out in a knee-jerk reaction and said the

00:32:18.940 police acted stupidly.

00:32:20.120 Within a couple of hours, even he had to have realized that the police officers acted exactly

00:32:26.020 like they were supposed to be.

00:32:27.300 If anybody was acting in a stupid manner, it was the homeowner.

00:32:31.540 So in order to fix it, they had that ridiculous beer summit at the White House.

00:32:36.420 If you remember, that was quite possibly the biggest cliche I've ever seen in my life,

00:32:41.000 and absolutely no one wanted to be there.

00:32:44.100 The cop didn't want to be there.

00:32:45.620 The professor didn't want to be there.

00:32:47.020 Biden didn't want to be there, and neither did Obama.

00:32:49.640 But there they sat, dress shirts, slacks, sleaze rolled up twice, sitting around, drinking

00:32:55.320 a beer, and of course, eating a bowl of peanuts.

00:32:57.800 Because, you know, everybody sits around.

00:32:59.680 I don't ever have a beer without a bowl of peanuts with me.

00:33:02.180 So it was just the silliest thing to try to cover up the fact that what he said was speak

00:33:07.000 out of line.

00:33:07.580 I agree with the premise that what the president says matters because he's the president.

00:33:14.040 So I have had disagreements when President Trump has said things that I thought was either

00:33:18.780 a knee-jerk reaction or inflammatory.

00:33:21.160 I disagreed with the, I don't like some of the tweeting myself.

00:33:24.160 All of that I agree with.

00:33:25.420 So the fear was, when the president called on this travel ban, that it was going, all

00:33:31.360 these people across the world, we're not going to America, just as we talked last time, Teresa

00:33:35.060 Mesa, we may change our laws.

00:33:36.620 Okay, I'll never go to Great Britain again.

00:33:38.640 So the fear was it was going to really hurt international terrorism.

00:33:42.600 So a story written yesterday by the AP says more international visitors came to the U.S.

00:33:47.320 than expected in April of 2017.

00:33:49.660 That's great news.

00:33:50.340 As a matter of fact, asking the head of the Travel Association, CEO of the U.S. Travel

00:33:56.280 Association, his name is Roger Dow, they asked him, are you surprised at this data?

00:34:00.560 And he said, yes, there has been many claims that the administration's actions on travel

00:34:04.720 have tarnished America's brand abroad.

00:34:06.900 We're seeing hard economic evidence that U.S. travel sector's remarkable resilience.

00:34:12.240 Do you think that's great news?

00:34:13.160 There was no damage.

00:34:14.720 So of course, there has to be a rebuttal from CNN.

00:34:17.240 CNN writes, Trump is hurting American tourism.

00:34:19.640 Citing the exact same report.

00:34:23.880 Now, which is accurate?

00:34:24.780 I don't know.

00:34:26.280 But here again, you've got CNN one day later writing a story that is going after the President

00:34:33.160 of the United States.

00:34:33.940 It is interesting to me that there was no correlation between the uptick in violence against police,

00:34:41.240 the uptick in disrespect toward police in America, the job of being a police officer,

00:34:47.040 the riots that were happening against the police when they were unfounded.

00:34:51.240 Nobody accused that.

00:34:53.420 Nobody that I know of in the traditional media, especially not CNN, accused President Obama

00:34:58.900 of being the cause of those things.

00:35:02.420 But now President Trump is the cause of a down in tourism and this anti-reporter sentiment

00:35:08.760 that makes it okay to push reporters around.

00:35:10.920 Just one more thing you have to take into consideration when you think about what the media is saying.

00:35:15.920 Coming up, we'll talk about Reality Winner.

00:35:18.340 Your opportunity to jump on a poll at Glenn Beck's Twitter site where you can answer the

00:35:22.740 question, which of hers is most egregious?

00:35:24.480 That's coming up in the next hour.

00:35:25.880 Stick around.

00:35:26.360 I'm Mike Broomhead.

00:35:27.100 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:35:28.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:35:36.600 Mercury.

00:35:37.320 Mercury.

00:35:51.000 The Blaze Radio Network.

00:35:55.720 On Demand.

00:35:58.040 The Fusion of Entertainment and Enlightenment.

00:36:22.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:36:28.040 Welcome.

00:36:28.760 My name is Mike Broomhead in for Glenn today.

00:36:30.760 Thanks for being a part of the show, however you're listening or watching.

00:36:34.480 We love the fact that you've joined us for a few minutes.

00:36:36.800 Compelling questions this hour.

00:36:38.720 Who is Reality Winner?

00:36:40.720 A great poll.

00:36:41.680 If you've not read the tweets, we're going to read them here in just a little while.

00:36:44.800 But Reality Winner is top secret clearance, works for a security company out of Georgia,

00:36:50.280 or at least worked for one, and has been charged with sneaking classified documents out

00:36:56.340 of the White House and giving them to the media.

00:36:59.260 She has got, if you believe her Twitter account, is a very left-leaning activist, and it looks

00:37:04.940 as if trying to subvert the Trump White House.

00:37:08.260 We have one of the polls.

00:37:09.340 If you go to glennbeck.com, you can get a link to his, or if you follow Glenn on Twitter,

00:37:13.100 there is a poll of which is her most egregious tweet, and there are four listed there.

00:37:16.840 Hard to choose.

00:37:17.740 Hard to choose a favorite.

00:37:18.720 I've chosen mine.

00:37:20.400 If you want to vote on that, you can.

00:37:22.560 But we'll talk a little bit more.

00:37:23.800 Her parents have spoken out in defense of her to some degree, and I'm waiting.

00:37:28.360 I haven't heard much of it yet.

00:37:29.960 We'll wait and see.

00:37:31.580 But there will be those on the left that will compare her to Edward Snowden.

00:37:36.640 And the differences between the two are staggering.

00:37:39.800 But we will discuss this at great lengths coming up here in just a few moments.

00:37:42.960 The headlines we've got to cover, James Comey to testify tomorrow, that coming up in this

00:37:48.460 hour of the show as well.

00:37:49.440 We'll talk about the Comey testimony, what is being said that he, it's being said that

00:37:54.420 he will testify that he went to Jeff Sessions after a meeting with the president and asked

00:37:59.040 to not be left alone with the president.

00:38:00.960 And I don't know what that means, to be honest, but that's part of the discussion this hour as

00:38:05.920 well.

00:38:06.320 But that testimony is significant.

00:38:08.060 The investigation into Michael Flynn and the Russian situation, it didn't seem to be

00:38:13.500 hindered in any way.

00:38:15.200 But the insinuation is that they were trying to hinder that investigation.

00:38:20.180 There's so much hypocrisy on both sides of the aisle with things that are going on,

00:38:26.300 that at some point we've got to understand, and if we don't start getting this right,

00:38:30.700 we're in big trouble, that there is a major difference between right and wrong.

00:38:34.600 And if you're not willing to look at the differences between right and wrong and call

00:38:39.260 right, right, no matter who does it, and wrong, wrong, no matter who does it, we are not going

00:38:43.420 to live in a society based on principles.

00:38:45.160 We're going to live in a society that's a popularity contest, which I think is one of

00:38:49.500 the biggest problems we have in this country, that you don't have to like somebody to respect

00:38:54.420 them.

00:38:55.020 You don't have to like somebody for them to be right sometimes.

00:38:58.340 You don't have to like admitting it when they are, but we still have to admit that right

00:39:02.360 is right and wrong is wrong.

00:39:04.500 And so this testimony does matter.

00:39:06.860 Will this put an end to this?

00:39:07.960 So far, and I've been a defender of the president on this for a very long time when it comes

00:39:12.400 to Russia, there is not one shred of evidence, not one shred of evidence that anybody in

00:39:19.480 the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians, not one.

00:39:22.280 Now the accusations about Michael Flynn and his dealings with the Russians seem to be a

00:39:28.240 Michael Flynn situation.

00:39:30.120 These were things that happened.

00:39:32.840 The speeches that he gave and the money that he took happened while President Obama was

00:39:38.660 in office.

00:39:39.580 The question, of course, is what is going to happen or what happened while he was dealing

00:39:44.480 with the Russians as a part of the campaign?

00:39:46.440 That's a fair question that does need to be answered.

00:39:49.740 But so far, whether it's Dianne Feinstein or it is Maxine Waters or Chuck Schumer or anyone

00:39:56.540 else who has been asked, where's the evidence?

00:40:00.840 Do you have a smoking gun?

00:40:02.200 Do you have any evidence of collusion?

00:40:04.260 They all want it to be true, so they'll say not yet.

00:40:08.520 But the answer is no.

00:40:10.100 If there's no evidence, what happens?

00:40:12.340 Can the American people move on?

00:40:14.920 So that's going to be a part of what we talk about for sure.

00:40:17.760 Big headlines, Theresa May, we played the audio in the last hour.

00:40:22.480 If you missed it, I'm sure you can find the podcast later on today.

00:40:25.420 But Theresa May said that in order to protect the people of Great Britain, they will do what's

00:40:30.600 necessary to find people that are doing the wrong thing.

00:40:34.980 And if they have human rights laws that stand in the way of getting people out of that country

00:40:38.440 that don't belong there, they'll change the laws.

00:40:41.180 Well, the reaction, of course, that we're seeing, there was three or four or five examples in

00:40:44.900 a story that I read this morning of people around the world tweeting, well, then I'll

00:40:48.060 never go to Great Britain again.

00:40:49.280 There you go, hammering human rights.

00:40:51.480 What about the rights of the citizens of a country to feel safe?

00:40:54.840 Now, I'm not talking about kicking people's doors down or listening to people's phone calls,

00:41:01.120 surveillance.

00:41:01.620 You know, in America, and I've made this, I was just talking about this yesterday with

00:41:07.640 Doc Thompson, that I was a supporter of the Patriot Act when it was first enacted.

00:41:16.640 And I thought, you know, we are going to surveil inbound calls from foreign countries that we

00:41:21.440 know are, that are known terrorist nations.

00:41:23.420 We will surveil those inbound calls only for keywords.

00:41:27.320 And then if there's some keywords that pop up, then we'll go back and listen to the phone

00:41:30.900 calls.

00:41:31.400 I thought there's a way to keep us safe by doing something like that.

00:41:34.880 And my friends, the libertarian, leaning people especially, said to me, you give that

00:41:39.620 government that kind of power and you will never believe what it's going to turn into.

00:41:43.140 And I said they were wrong and they were 100% right.

00:41:46.920 There is no doubt they were 100% right about that.

00:41:50.740 That surveilling the American people is against the law.

00:41:53.440 We know about FISA orders or FISA warrants, whatever you want to call them.

00:41:57.140 And that really warrants their orders.

00:41:59.380 And when a FISA order is given, you're allowed to surveil a foreign national.

00:42:03.720 The first part of FISA is foreign.

00:42:05.640 And if an American, and they call it an American person, is caught up in that surveillance, they

00:42:11.740 are redacted and listed only as an American person.

00:42:14.700 Now, it could be a U.S. person.

00:42:16.680 I'm sorry.

00:42:17.400 It is either, it could be a person, it could be an entity, a business, but it's all listed

00:42:22.260 in the broad title of U.S. person.

00:42:25.240 Well, now we know through the leakers in the White House, names were not only unredacted

00:42:29.360 or came to the light of day, they were then dispersed to people and then leaked to the

00:42:34.240 media, which is the biggest violation within the intelligence community that's around.

00:42:38.660 So that is a valuable conversation about how we balance the laws of protecting people's

00:42:46.120 privacy, but at the same time protecting our citizens.

00:42:49.020 The president is saying we need a travel ban, a temporary travel ban to fix the vetting

00:42:53.540 process.

00:42:54.380 The courts so far have disagreed with him.

00:42:56.380 I think the Supreme Court ultimately sides with him on this regard.

00:43:00.140 The law that is written right now seems to be constitutional as it is written.

00:43:04.140 And I think that's the court's purview.

00:43:06.420 If the president abuses that law, that's a different story.

00:43:10.380 But you can't say, yes, he's written a law that's legal, but he's going to use it the

00:43:15.640 wrong way.

00:43:16.120 Therefore, we're not going to make it legal.

00:43:17.940 That's legislating from the bench.

00:43:20.160 That's punishing someone for a crime they haven't committed yet.

00:43:22.840 So I think that he'll be on the side of angels.

00:43:24.640 I think it's going to be a 5-4.

00:43:25.940 Of course, Kennedy is going to be the swing.

00:43:27.340 I could be wrong.

00:43:28.260 He could lose this 5-4.

00:43:29.700 But I still think the American people deserve to be protected.

00:43:33.160 And Theresa May, in her statement, saying if we have to change our laws, we'll change

00:43:36.480 our laws.

00:43:37.400 We'll see how the people of Great Britain respond in their election.

00:43:42.220 Another carrier is out of the Affordable Care Act.

00:43:44.940 That's going to be another part of the show in the next hour because the Affordable Care

00:43:48.800 Act, Obamacare, is falling apart at the seams.

00:43:51.340 It is crumbling.

00:43:53.160 And the entire country knows it.

00:43:55.640 And yet, nothing is being done.

00:43:58.360 Rand Paul said we've got to repeal and replace like we promised.

00:44:01.660 And I think he's 100% right.

00:44:03.900 I don't agree with Rand Paul on everything.

00:44:06.380 But he's 100% right that if the Republicans making the promise that they will repeal and

00:44:11.300 replace Obamacare don't, they will never have the support of the people on the left.

00:44:17.020 But they will not get the support of the people in the middle that supported him on that.

00:44:20.700 If you break your promise, people don't trust you.

00:44:23.800 If they don't trust you, they don't like you.

00:44:25.620 If they don't like you, you're out.

00:44:28.280 And they better get to work in the Congress.

00:44:31.280 They better get to work on health care.

00:44:32.820 They better get to work on tax reform.

00:44:34.700 They better get to work on fixing the Veterans Administration.

00:44:37.280 All of these promises that were made, they better get to work.

00:44:40.340 Because leadership change will come.

00:44:42.460 And it will come because the American people will not vote for people they don't like.

00:44:47.280 I know it sounds trite, and it is, that it's a popularity contest.

00:44:50.300 But there's no doubt that's what it's turned into.

00:44:52.300 The Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, offered to resign his position.

00:44:56.280 It's been reported.

00:44:57.700 They're not saying anything at the DOJ.

00:44:59.500 Sean Spicer says he can't say whether or not the president has confidence in Jeff Sessions.

00:45:03.980 So in the coming days, we'll see what happens in that position as well.

00:45:07.660 In a few moments, the conversation about reality winner.

00:45:11.680 The tweets that she put out there.

00:45:13.040 How did she maintain the security clearance?

00:45:14.860 How was she able to get these documents out?

00:45:16.540 What are her parents now saying that she's afraid of?

00:45:19.780 It was an interesting interview with her parents and who they were defending,

00:45:22.820 or how they were defending her in all of this.

00:45:24.880 That's coming up here in the next segment of the show.

00:45:26.480 Once again, social media users, I'm at BroomheadShow on Twitter.

00:45:29.700 Would love for you to follow me there.

00:45:30.920 We can interact online that way.

00:45:32.960 My name is Mike Broomhead.

00:45:33.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program, and I'll be right back.

00:45:38.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:45:42.300 Mercury.

00:45:42.660 Mercury.

00:45:46.540 All right, it is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:45:51.740 We're talking about reality winner.

00:45:53.320 That is her name.

00:45:53.940 It's a name you're going to be hearing quite often, I'm sure, over the next month, probably year or so,

00:45:59.280 as this is the woman that has been charged as the White House leaker,

00:46:02.500 someone that has been charged with taking top secret documents,

00:46:05.400 removing them from the White House, and giving them to the media.

00:46:08.320 Now, she's going to be compared to Edward Snowden when she should be compared to Hillary Clinton.

00:46:13.360 And what I mean by that is, Hillary wasn't trying to subvert anyone,

00:46:18.520 but what she did was so negligent, and it was the same act.

00:46:22.420 It's just that Hillary did it digitally.

00:46:24.880 I wish that point could be, if that point could have been made to the American people during the election better,

00:46:29.480 it would have been much worse for her.

00:46:31.340 There is no difference.

00:46:32.760 And I guess it's a generational thing.

00:46:34.880 You know, I'm 50 years old, so for me, a hard piece of paper being taken out of a room

00:46:39.380 where it's not supposed to be removed from, you can see the crime in that.

00:46:43.340 Sending an email over an unsecured server versus a secured server for someone that's 50 years old,

00:46:48.440 I don't know what that means.

00:46:50.100 I know that makes me sound old, but it doesn't resonate with me.

00:46:53.820 With young people who have never lived without tablets or smartphones or devices,

00:46:58.820 where they do business online, where there's paperless everything,

00:47:02.600 you realize, A, there's not much privacy on those devices.

00:47:05.540 You're giving away your privacy.

00:47:06.740 You're being watched by everyone.

00:47:08.500 I mean, just try to buy something online.

00:47:10.460 Go to Amazon one day and look for a product,

00:47:13.160 and the next day when you open your Facebook page,

00:47:15.300 the advertisement for that product shows up magically on your Facebook page.

00:47:18.560 I mean, obviously, they're watching what you're doing.

00:47:22.040 But when it comes to a crime like this,

00:47:24.540 somebody explain to me the difference.

00:47:26.140 I would love to have an expert try to explain that away.

00:47:29.340 That what Hillary Clinton did was no different than what this girl did,

00:47:32.240 except she didn't give it to the press.

00:47:33.540 She was emailing it to other people on unsecured servers.

00:47:36.180 She took documents that were classified and put them in an unclassified place.

00:47:40.680 That's illegal.

00:47:42.260 That's where the comparison should lie with this reality winner.

00:47:45.540 But more importantly, where she's not anything like Edward Snowden,

00:47:48.740 as far as we know, whether you condone what Snowden did or you didn't,

00:47:52.160 he said he thought he saw something wrong.

00:47:54.540 The government was doing the wrong thing, so he exposed it to the world.

00:47:58.760 What she is doing is subverting a specific person.

00:48:01.780 She's working in the White House, and she is subverting the President of the United States.

00:48:06.280 If you go to her Twitter account, some of the things that she has tweeted out

00:48:09.340 have been horrible things about people.

00:48:12.520 And so there were a few tweets.

00:48:14.840 So on Glenn Beck's Twitter page, if you go to Glenn Beck,

00:48:18.480 if you follow Glenn, at Glenn Beck, or you go to glennbeck.com,

00:48:21.380 the poll asks which of the tweets was her most troubling.

00:48:27.900 The one in the lead right now is being white is terrorism,

00:48:31.060 because she did tweet that out.

00:48:32.200 She tweeted out at Kanye West that he should make a t-shirt that said being white is terrorism.

00:48:38.120 The one that's in last place is calling the President foul names, because she did.

00:48:43.520 She called him all kinds of stuff, the Tangerine in Chief or something like that.

00:48:47.260 And then the other two are almost tied for first place,

00:48:51.460 or the other one tied close for first place is the one I thought was the worst,

00:48:55.380 was when the Iranians were tweeting out about the Americans and weapons.

00:49:00.520 She tweeted back to the Iranians that if the President, with a derogatory term,

00:49:06.900 starts a war or declares war, which she must not know her constitution,

00:49:10.880 because the President can't do that.

00:49:12.080 But if the President declares war, there are people in America, like her,

00:49:16.620 that will stand with the Iranians.

00:49:19.400 How does that woman get and maintain a security clearance?

00:49:22.640 That's the one I chose as the most egregious.

00:49:24.980 And then there's also one in there about the Attorney General being a Confederate,

00:49:29.620 which again is just name-calling nonsense.

00:49:32.360 But if you want to vote on that, you can go to glennbeck.com,

00:49:34.460 you can find the story there, or you can go to at glennbeck, and it's pretty easy.

00:49:38.880 Then you can see the vote total and how it's gone up and where the percentages are.

00:49:43.580 To be honest with you, this girl deserves to be punished.

00:49:47.720 She is subverting the American government.

00:49:49.940 And it's funny how people left and right are asking such silly questions.

00:49:56.520 I have a close friend, I think I mentioned yesterday on the show,

00:49:59.280 my friend who I grew up with, he's like a brother to me,

00:50:02.380 but is so far left of me that it's impossible to have conversations sometimes.

00:50:09.180 And he gave the caveat that if she did something wrong, she should be punished.

00:50:14.440 But, then there was the big but, was,

00:50:17.840 but why are people more concerned about what she did

00:50:21.120 than the information that she put out there?

00:50:24.580 And I laughed out loud by myself at that.

00:50:29.720 Are you kidding?

00:50:31.220 What was the mantra when the evidence was out there by the Russians

00:50:35.820 about Hillary Clinton and her time as Secretary of State

00:50:39.740 and this great firewall between her office as Secretary of State

00:50:43.560 and the foundation in which she started,

00:50:45.600 where she said there would be no interaction.

00:50:48.260 And then we found out there was not only interaction,

00:50:50.320 there was collusion.

00:50:51.100 That there were people that couldn't get a meeting,

00:50:54.160 there were, I think, and that wasn't a Saudi prince,

00:50:56.240 but it was a high, it was a government official,

00:50:58.460 I think from the Middle East,

00:50:59.460 who couldn't get a meeting through proper channels

00:51:01.760 with the Secretary of State.

00:51:03.500 So they reached through Huma Abedin,

00:51:05.820 or to Huma Abedin through the foundation,

00:51:07.760 who said, this guy's a big donor to the foundation,

00:51:11.120 trying to get a meeting with the Secretary,

00:51:13.380 can't do it through the other channels, can you help?

00:51:15.940 Huma Abedin replies, we've sent some dates,

00:51:18.740 let us know which one works.

00:51:20.040 The most egregious was the Haiti relief.

00:51:24.580 And there's the documents that show,

00:51:27.240 if you are friends of Bill Clinton,

00:51:28.700 or a big donor to the Clinton Foundation,

00:51:31.500 you are directed to people within the State Department

00:51:34.200 that would get you expedited contracts,

00:51:37.260 or at least get your applications in,

00:51:39.720 to get the relief contracts to do the work

00:51:41.860 that would be paid for by our State Department,

00:51:43.840 by our government.

00:51:44.460 And it was said in those emails,

00:51:46.780 if they aren't either A, a big donor,

00:51:49.000 or B, a friend of Bill,

00:51:52.500 they're to be directed to a website

00:51:54.100 to submit an application.

00:51:56.520 All of that stuff was out there.

00:51:58.840 Was anybody on the left saying,

00:52:01.280 we need to worry about the information,

00:52:02.620 and not worry so much?

00:52:05.460 So let's worry about the information in both cases.

00:52:07.580 What is it that Reality Winner put out there?

00:52:10.520 Reality Winner released a document that said,

00:52:13.580 an NSA document,

00:52:15.020 saying that the Russians tried to hack into the elections

00:52:18.960 in a few places.

00:52:20.160 They sent out phishing emails,

00:52:21.680 trying to get election officials to give them information,

00:52:24.460 and they directly tried to hack into some of the voting poll places

00:52:28.220 or polling software.

00:52:30.740 And there's no evidence that they were successful on any level.

00:52:34.860 So the uproar was, of course,

00:52:37.000 oh my gosh, look what's going on.

00:52:39.160 And I said two things.

00:52:40.240 Number one, who was president when that happened?

00:52:43.900 It wasn't Donald Trump.

00:52:45.660 He was running for president then.

00:52:48.000 Why would the Russians help Trump?

00:52:52.040 But more importantly,

00:52:53.960 if you're going to blame the White House for this,

00:52:56.380 why would President Obama help Donald Trump?

00:52:59.900 Because that's what happened here.

00:53:01.660 It was under his administration that these things were going on.

00:53:05.120 So she's releasing documents that this happened,

00:53:07.840 that they tried to get in.

00:53:09.900 So okay, let's look at the reality of that.

00:53:11.720 Let's say the smoking gun is that the Russians

00:53:14.520 tried to hack into the American election system.

00:53:17.680 They were unsuccessful.

00:53:18.960 What's the big story there to be told?

00:53:25.940 So you compare that with the,

00:53:28.400 okay, now let's pay attention to the evidence against Hillary Clinton

00:53:31.380 where she had a server.

00:53:33.100 Well, don't we all?

00:53:33.740 I mean, I want to make sure that we're all on the same page here.

00:53:36.500 I think everybody keeps a private server

00:53:38.600 for their email corporation

00:53:40.040 and their business in their bathroom, right?

00:53:44.120 We all do that.

00:53:45.080 We all set up a private server at our house

00:53:47.160 and put it in the bathroom.

00:53:49.220 And then when we get investigated,

00:53:51.640 our people pick and choose

00:53:52.980 which emails are going to be turned over

00:53:54.520 when the law says you turn them all over.

00:53:57.260 And she said,

00:53:57.720 the other ones were just recipes and yoga stuff.

00:54:01.200 Okay.

00:54:02.020 First of all,

00:54:02.800 no way you do yoga and no way you cook.

00:54:04.860 So let's just dispense with that right away.

00:54:07.380 And the fact of the matter is

00:54:09.560 all those emails should have been turned over.

00:54:11.660 If you taint the water

00:54:13.620 by mixing your personal emails

00:54:16.320 with your business emails,

00:54:17.980 they all get turned over.

00:54:19.500 It didn't happen.

00:54:20.560 Then she sanitizes.

00:54:22.300 She has somebody sanitize

00:54:23.880 and completely dismantle that server

00:54:26.840 that took months and months and months and months

00:54:29.320 to get information off of.

00:54:32.100 And yet nobody wants to scream about that.

00:54:36.080 Reality Winner stole documents

00:54:39.940 and gave them to the press

00:54:41.400 to the press to subvert the American president.

00:54:44.720 Whether you like Donald Trump

00:54:45.980 or you don't like Donald Trump,

00:54:47.620 if you respect the system,

00:54:49.600 how is this not a huge crime?

00:54:51.620 It is.

00:54:52.120 It is absolutely a huge crime.

00:54:54.840 James Comey set to testify tomorrow

00:54:57.560 about his investigation into Michael Flynn,

00:55:00.080 him being fired,

00:55:01.080 pressured by the president of the United States.

00:55:02.960 And all eyes are on James Comey tomorrow.

00:55:05.240 They are salivating at the cable news networks.

00:55:07.920 We'll talk about the reality of what's happening here.

00:55:09.840 Not reality Winner,

00:55:10.820 the reality of James Comey.

00:55:12.540 That coming up in the next segment of the show.

00:55:14.220 My name is Mike Broomhead.

00:55:15.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:55:17.160 We are watching the Glenn Beck Program.

00:55:27.340 Mercury.

00:55:31.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:55:33.100 All right, James Comey set to testify tomorrow.

00:55:37.920 All eyes on James Comey.

00:55:39.720 Every one of the networks,

00:55:41.180 the cable news networks salivating

00:55:42.760 at the potential of what James Comey might say.

00:55:44.840 But remember,

00:55:45.640 they have been disappointed so far

00:55:47.900 with everything they've gotten.

00:55:49.460 This morning,

00:55:49.860 I was watching one of the cable news networks,

00:55:51.700 and you could probably guess which one

00:55:53.180 when I tell you what I'm about to tell you.

00:55:55.440 And they had some people sitting around

00:55:57.060 discussing James Comey's testimony

00:55:58.660 and the people on the committee

00:56:00.400 that will be questioning James Comey.

00:56:03.140 Now, remember,

00:56:03.800 there are going to be two hearings.

00:56:05.940 One is going to be an open door hearing

00:56:07.720 in which the press and the public

00:56:08.980 are going to be able to watch.

00:56:09.780 The other will be a closed door hearing.

00:56:11.800 I don't know which one you think

00:56:12.800 the information we want to hear

00:56:13.860 is going to come out in,

00:56:14.560 but I can guess which one it's going to be.

00:56:16.900 Obviously, if there are some top secret things

00:56:18.460 being discussed,

00:56:19.440 it can't be done in public.

00:56:20.920 But James Comey,

00:56:22.060 will he say anything publicly

00:56:23.760 that's damaging?

00:56:25.580 And I don't mean damaging

00:56:26.500 to the reputation of the president.

00:56:27.860 How much more are you going to damage

00:56:28.880 the president's reputation?

00:56:30.440 I mean, how much more

00:56:31.200 are you going to go after him?

00:56:32.580 But this panel on this cable news network

00:56:35.040 lamenting the Republicans on this committee

00:56:38.900 just carrying the water

00:56:41.060 for the Republican Party,

00:56:42.260 which I thought was the funniest statement ever

00:56:44.420 since these guys carry only one bucket of water.

00:56:47.060 It's got a big D on the side of it.

00:56:49.260 And so they were lamenting with the Republicans

00:56:51.440 and then, of course,

00:56:52.580 encouraging the Republicans on the committee

00:56:54.300 that they have an opportunity

00:56:56.180 to do the right thing

00:56:57.700 that they have the opportunity

00:56:58.980 to ask really hard questions

00:57:01.480 of James Comey

00:57:02.460 and get to the bottom of this.

00:57:04.800 Get to the bottom of what

00:57:07.460 is my question.

00:57:08.980 They keep saying there's smoke.

00:57:11.380 There's smoke.

00:57:12.280 But there's no smoking gun.

00:57:13.760 But there's a lot of smoke.

00:57:15.260 Well, okay.

00:57:16.060 At what point

00:57:17.160 do you cease and desist?

00:57:19.420 There is a lot of this

00:57:20.480 that happens along the political divide

00:57:22.400 in this country.

00:57:23.680 And I'm sure that on some level

00:57:25.200 I'm a part of it.

00:57:26.320 That if you support one party or the other,

00:57:28.620 you want them to stop the nonsense

00:57:29.900 when it's against you

00:57:30.860 and you want them to ramp it up

00:57:32.200 when it's against someone else.

00:57:33.460 I don't want to be that person.

00:57:35.060 I have said from the beginning

00:57:36.580 and I mean it from the bottom of my heart.

00:57:38.760 If anybody in the Trump campaign

00:57:41.040 colluded with the Russians

00:57:42.720 to fix an election,

00:57:44.460 whether it worked or not,

00:57:46.240 there should be repercussions.

00:57:48.440 The American people need to know that.

00:57:51.380 But if there isn't any evidence of it,

00:57:53.560 you have got to walk away at some point.

00:57:56.180 And so far,

00:57:57.460 with all of the digging

00:57:58.680 and all of the hunting

00:57:59.820 and everybody that hates this president,

00:58:01.900 they haven't found one shred of evidence.

00:58:04.140 When it comes to Michael Flynn,

00:58:06.100 Michael Flynn,

00:58:06.920 it seems as if,

00:58:08.500 broke the law on multiple occasions.

00:58:11.680 And the president of the United States

00:58:13.680 went to James Comey

00:58:15.080 and said he's a good guy.

00:58:16.340 Do you think you can end this?

00:58:19.000 There is a big difference

00:58:20.540 between saying to someone,

00:58:22.460 when's this going to be over?

00:58:26.320 Or saying to someone,

00:58:27.900 it would be in your best interest

00:58:29.960 if you want to be around very long

00:58:32.940 to end this investigation.

00:58:34.980 I don't think James Comey

00:58:36.320 is going to say that.

00:58:37.180 I think they're going to be

00:58:38.000 very disappointed.

00:58:39.680 I don't believe that James Comey

00:58:40.940 is going to,

00:58:41.420 and I could be,

00:58:42.340 I've been so wrong

00:58:43.200 about so many things.

00:58:44.520 But just remember

00:58:45.440 when Brennan testified,

00:58:47.380 when they talked about

00:58:48.200 intelligence gathering

00:58:49.480 and data

00:58:50.560 and meetings with Russians

00:58:52.720 and the Democrats

00:58:53.980 on the committee asked him,

00:58:55.880 could this be something that's,

00:58:57.260 and I'm using the word nefarious,

00:58:58.480 they didn't,

00:58:59.220 could this be something nefarious?

00:59:01.500 And he answered,

00:59:02.400 yeah, it could.

00:59:03.520 It also could be nothing.

00:59:05.820 There was no smoking gun there either.

00:59:08.000 There was no smoke there.

00:59:09.880 It was mundane testimony

00:59:12.200 and it was on to the next thing.

00:59:13.960 Now it's James Comey.

00:59:15.940 Does Comey have an axe to grind

00:59:17.240 with the president?

00:59:17.880 The funny thing is,

00:59:18.980 the other side of this argument

00:59:20.900 was just that.

00:59:22.120 The president fired James Comey

00:59:23.740 because of the investigation,

00:59:24.860 and I said,

00:59:25.960 why would he do that?

00:59:28.300 Now James Comey is a free agent

00:59:30.240 in the eyes of the people.

00:59:31.440 And I know that there is

00:59:32.500 a confidentiality clause.

00:59:33.900 There's things that he's not allowed

00:59:34.920 to say in public

00:59:35.620 or to the news media.

00:59:36.520 But at the same time,

00:59:38.060 if he's fired from the job,

00:59:39.860 he no longer works for the president.

00:59:41.920 The president has no more oversight

00:59:43.400 over what he says and does.

00:59:45.080 And he can now talk about

00:59:46.260 the investigation

00:59:47.000 as a private citizen

00:59:48.140 to a certain degree,

00:59:49.100 which is what he's doing.

00:59:50.500 Why would they fire him?

00:59:51.640 I mean, these are all logical questions.

00:59:53.580 That doesn't mean

00:59:54.500 that there's clean hands

00:59:55.560 in the White House

00:59:56.200 and that I'm not looking to see

00:59:57.680 if there's evidence of wrongdoing.

00:59:59.360 But the people that are salivating

01:00:01.420 that this is going to be

01:00:03.000 the straw that broke the camel's back

01:00:06.160 when it comes to impeachment,

01:00:07.820 I just think are way ahead

01:00:09.700 of themselves.

01:00:10.440 And they're way too hopeful for it.

01:00:13.740 Since when is it an American principle

01:00:15.720 to want the American president

01:00:17.740 to have done something so wrong

01:00:19.760 that we are going to throw them

01:00:21.220 out of office?

01:00:23.080 Richard Nixon, Bill Clinton.

01:00:25.480 Anybody happy about those two things?

01:00:28.060 Anybody in America?

01:00:29.100 I guess they were.

01:00:29.980 I mean, when they got Nixon

01:00:32.120 out of office.

01:00:32.920 I mean, I was a young boy

01:00:34.220 when that happened.

01:00:34.780 And I don't remember much about it

01:00:36.040 other than my mom

01:00:37.460 watching the hearings.

01:00:41.540 But Nixon leaving office.

01:00:43.980 Yeah, there were people

01:00:44.700 in the Democratic Party

01:00:45.600 that were happy

01:00:46.080 that the Republican president

01:00:47.120 was gone.

01:00:47.880 But Americans weren't happy

01:00:49.320 that their president

01:00:50.660 resigned in shame.

01:00:54.940 And when Bill Clinton

01:00:56.000 was being impeached

01:00:56.980 for lying,

01:00:57.920 which it was proven he did,

01:01:00.420 he lost his law license.

01:01:02.520 There were those on the left

01:01:03.540 that, I mean, I remember

01:01:04.540 like it was yesterday,

01:01:05.680 people saying,

01:01:06.780 well, it doesn't affect

01:01:07.960 how he does his job.

01:01:09.160 I mean, it doesn't make him

01:01:09.980 a good person in his personal life,

01:01:11.300 but that's between him

01:01:12.100 and his wife.

01:01:13.320 And I thought, no,

01:01:14.720 this is,

01:01:15.400 there has never been

01:01:16.080 a bigger disparity in power

01:01:17.680 between president

01:01:19.120 of the United States

01:01:20.220 and an intern

01:01:21.220 in the White House.

01:01:22.220 The most powerful person

01:01:23.680 in the entire world

01:01:24.680 and an intern.

01:01:26.080 So for the left

01:01:28.820 in their politically

01:01:29.880 correct world

01:01:30.780 to say,

01:01:32.300 well, that's between their,

01:01:33.900 that is a political motivation.

01:01:36.700 That's not an intellectually

01:01:38.040 honest statement.

01:01:39.360 Not at all.

01:01:41.240 But since when

01:01:42.240 do the networks

01:01:43.460 salivate at the potential

01:01:45.200 of an American president

01:01:46.980 being impeached?

01:01:48.820 I didn't agree.

01:01:50.440 I can't think of anything

01:01:51.880 substantial

01:01:53.280 that comes to mind

01:01:55.040 that President Obama

01:01:55.960 did that I agree with.

01:01:57.940 I thought he was wrong

01:01:58.920 on Cuba.

01:01:59.580 I know he was wrong

01:02:00.360 on Iran.

01:02:01.000 He's wrong about

01:02:01.560 the Affordable Care Act.

01:02:02.760 He was wrong about

01:02:03.560 stimulus spending.

01:02:04.860 He was wrong about

01:02:05.520 raising taxes.

01:02:06.620 He was wrong about

01:02:07.380 all of those things.

01:02:08.200 His attitude towards

01:02:09.200 the police,

01:02:09.720 he was wrong about

01:02:10.740 all of those things.

01:02:12.080 I never called for impeachment.

01:02:13.560 As a matter of fact,

01:02:14.680 I wanted everybody

01:02:15.620 in this country

01:02:16.280 on the right side of the aisle

01:02:17.320 to feel the sting

01:02:18.480 of that presidency

01:02:19.220 for all eight years.

01:02:20.760 I was surprised

01:02:21.400 he got elected

01:02:21.840 the first time.

01:02:22.640 I was surprised

01:02:23.260 he got re-elected.

01:02:24.400 But the American people,

01:02:25.680 he was my president.

01:02:27.380 And I wanted everyone

01:02:28.320 to feel that sting.

01:02:29.400 I didn't want it to damage

01:02:30.360 the American people.

01:02:31.520 I wanted us all to see

01:02:33.080 that elections

01:02:34.040 have consequences.

01:02:35.440 He was the rightfully

01:02:36.540 elected president

01:02:37.280 of the United States.

01:02:38.040 He deserved the respect

01:02:39.040 that that office holds.

01:02:40.420 And he deserved

01:02:41.000 to be supported

01:02:41.760 to the extent

01:02:42.540 that I don't want to see

01:02:43.920 him leaving in shame.

01:02:45.760 Vote him out

01:02:46.260 if you don't like him.

01:02:47.600 I was happy

01:02:48.500 to see him go.

01:02:50.720 I was honored

01:02:51.740 to be at the inauguration

01:02:53.080 of the president.

01:02:54.540 Not necessarily

01:02:55.140 because it was Donald Trump,

01:02:56.280 although it was great

01:02:56.960 to see that inauguration.

01:02:58.140 It was great to be

01:02:58.900 at Meteor Row for that.

01:03:00.760 But I've got to be honest,

01:03:01.840 there was a part of me

01:03:02.640 that was so happy

01:03:03.680 when I watched

01:03:04.920 President Obama

01:03:05.980 and the former first lady

01:03:07.240 get on that helicopter

01:03:09.180 and fly out of D.C.

01:03:10.760 I liked it.

01:03:12.980 But that's the way

01:03:15.060 the American people voted.

01:03:17.800 So since when

01:03:18.540 does the media

01:03:19.040 jump on board?

01:03:19.900 James Comey

01:03:20.360 is going to testify

01:03:21.080 and everybody's talking

01:03:22.560 about how this is going

01:03:23.520 to bury Donald Trump.

01:03:25.360 Why does that make

01:03:26.180 anybody happy?

01:03:28.420 My problem

01:03:29.780 isn't with

01:03:30.620 the political machine.

01:03:32.540 I mean,

01:03:32.700 the Democrats

01:03:33.220 and the Republicans

01:03:33.920 have been doing this.

01:03:35.300 They did it better

01:03:36.340 a long time ago.

01:03:37.220 It's become a schoolyard

01:03:39.860 insult fight

01:03:40.740 is what it's become.

01:03:42.020 It's become childish.

01:03:43.820 But this has been going on

01:03:45.240 between political parties

01:03:46.660 forever.

01:03:49.040 You know,

01:03:49.400 they say

01:03:50.640 that the Affordable Care Act

01:03:53.100 may need to be tweaked.

01:03:54.600 No,

01:03:54.900 it's falling apart

01:03:55.580 at the seams.

01:03:56.400 But the Republican plan

01:03:57.700 is going to kill people.

01:04:00.500 Well,

01:04:00.860 no,

01:04:01.140 it's not.

01:04:01.680 But that's what they do

01:04:02.720 in politics.

01:04:03.980 The media

01:04:04.640 is supposed to be different.

01:04:06.560 Journalists

01:04:07.000 are supposed to be

01:04:07.680 critical of both sides.

01:04:09.520 The journalist

01:04:10.060 should be saying

01:04:10.720 to Nancy Pelosi,

01:04:11.720 how can you stand up here

01:04:13.180 and lecture the Republicans

01:04:14.800 about anything

01:04:15.520 when it's you

01:04:16.440 that gave us Obamacare?

01:04:18.280 They don't.

01:04:19.340 They just let her ramble on.

01:04:21.180 Not make any sense.

01:04:23.040 Let her continue

01:04:23.600 to call President Trump

01:04:24.600 President Bush

01:04:25.340 over and over again.

01:04:27.660 There is no equal time

01:04:29.740 as far as that criticism goes.

01:04:31.700 That's my problem

01:04:32.680 with how this is being handled.

01:04:34.200 They are elated

01:04:35.160 at the potential

01:04:35.920 that they can destroy

01:04:37.100 this president.

01:04:38.100 And that to me

01:04:38.840 isn't an American principle.

01:04:41.180 I didn't want Obama

01:04:42.520 to be destroyed.

01:04:44.000 I wanted him

01:04:44.600 to not be re-elected.

01:04:47.100 I wanted the Congress

01:04:48.500 to hold fast

01:04:51.700 on a budget

01:04:52.360 that was going

01:04:54.320 to be

01:04:54.980 smart,

01:04:57.160 balanced,

01:04:58.160 no debt.

01:04:59.180 They didn't.

01:05:00.400 They're as culpable

01:05:01.200 as the president

01:05:01.900 was in that agenda.

01:05:02.800 But at the same time

01:05:05.320 when the American people speak

01:05:07.060 we're supposed

01:05:07.780 to respect it.

01:05:09.120 And since when

01:05:09.700 does the media decide

01:05:10.820 that when James Comey

01:05:12.320 testifies

01:05:12.960 we're going to have

01:05:13.640 impeachment hearings

01:05:14.460 and they can't wait

01:05:15.460 to report that.

01:05:16.900 And that's all I saw today.

01:05:17.980 It was like a bloodlust

01:05:19.040 to try to do what they can

01:05:20.280 to just destroy

01:05:21.560 this president.

01:05:22.660 And it was sad to see.

01:05:25.780 We've talked

01:05:26.520 something I think

01:05:28.220 before I finish the hour

01:05:29.280 something more

01:05:30.160 along the lines

01:05:30.720 of culture,

01:05:32.100 pop culture.

01:05:34.040 The transgender

01:05:34.820 restroom argument

01:05:36.240 seems to be

01:05:36.940 to a lot of us

01:05:37.760 ridiculous.

01:05:39.520 I think what we've

01:05:40.460 turned into

01:05:41.180 with this conversation

01:05:42.360 though

01:05:42.720 is a political movement

01:05:44.340 instead of concerns

01:05:45.680 about people.

01:05:46.820 Because in the end

01:05:47.600 this really is

01:05:48.440 about people.

01:05:50.260 And it's

01:05:51.360 founded in

01:05:52.720 comfort

01:05:53.340 not safety.

01:05:55.260 There has been

01:05:55.720 a court case

01:05:56.360 and a ruling

01:05:56.980 of a public gym

01:05:58.360 where a woman

01:05:58.900 complained

01:05:59.460 about a transgender

01:06:00.520 still a man

01:06:01.460 trans

01:06:01.980 into a woman

01:06:03.480 but still

01:06:04.300 built like a man

01:06:05.380 in the ladies

01:06:06.000 locker room

01:06:06.580 and how the courts

01:06:07.480 decided.

01:06:08.320 We'll talk about that

01:06:08.960 before we finish up

01:06:09.760 this hour

01:06:10.160 and in the next hour

01:06:11.200 we're going to talk

01:06:11.900 about Rand Paul

01:06:12.660 and the Affordable Care Act

01:06:13.800 and its implosion.

01:06:14.800 All that coming up.

01:06:15.500 I'm Mike Broomhead.

01:06:16.500 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:06:19.980 You're listening

01:06:20.720 to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:06:23.780 Mercury.

01:06:24.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:06:29.920 Sign up for the newsletter

01:06:30.960 and get all the info

01:06:31.860 you need to know

01:06:32.660 at glennbeck.com.

01:06:35.400 All right.

01:06:36.520 Before we close out the hour

01:06:37.680 coming up in the next hour

01:06:38.600 we are going to talk about

01:06:39.540 the Affordable Care Act

01:06:40.520 because the ACA

01:06:41.780 Obamacare

01:06:42.400 is falling apart.

01:06:43.560 There's no doubt about it.

01:06:44.460 Anybody that's watching

01:06:45.560 and paying attention

01:06:46.760 realizes that

01:06:47.700 what was intended

01:06:48.480 is not what we're getting.

01:06:50.080 Even if you give

01:06:50.940 the president

01:06:51.440 the benefit

01:06:51.900 the former president

01:06:52.640 the benefit of the doubt.

01:06:54.020 What they had hoped for

01:06:54.840 is not what they delivered.

01:06:56.520 And so drastic changes

01:06:58.160 need to happen.

01:06:58.860 The Republicans promised

01:06:59.840 to repeal and replace.

01:07:01.080 Rand Paul was demanding

01:07:02.120 the Republicans

01:07:02.760 do just that.

01:07:04.220 I agree with him.

01:07:05.180 I absolutely agree with him.

01:07:06.640 We're also going to talk

01:07:07.560 about another major

01:07:08.260 insurance carrier

01:07:09.100 dropping out

01:07:10.220 of the exchanges.

01:07:11.380 That's more and more

01:07:12.520 realizing that there's

01:07:14.200 no money there

01:07:14.960 to be made.

01:07:15.620 They're losing money

01:07:16.680 so badly

01:07:17.380 that their companies

01:07:18.180 are falling apart.

01:07:19.000 They have no choice

01:07:19.800 but to step out

01:07:20.880 of the exchanges.

01:07:21.660 Well that's not

01:07:22.120 what was promised

01:07:22.700 to the American people.

01:07:24.000 So more details

01:07:24.700 in the next hour

01:07:25.640 for sure.

01:07:27.280 And then Jeff Sessions

01:07:28.120 offers his resignation

01:07:29.080 and then one final thought

01:07:31.040 about gun control

01:07:31.920 from an expert.

01:07:32.980 It's Kim Kardashian.

01:07:34.240 So we'll hear that

01:07:35.120 in the final hour

01:07:35.800 of the show.

01:07:37.620 There's a story

01:07:38.540 in a gym in Michigan

01:07:40.180 where a woman

01:07:41.460 was sued

01:07:43.520 or a woman

01:07:44.180 sued Planet Fitness

01:07:45.680 after she saw

01:07:48.800 a transgender person

01:07:50.060 utilizing the women's

01:07:51.220 locker room.

01:07:52.540 A judge ruled

01:07:53.480 last week

01:07:53.980 against her

01:07:54.680 who complained

01:07:55.400 about a transgender person

01:07:56.720 using Planet Fitness's

01:07:58.020 locker room.

01:07:59.240 So let's have

01:07:59.860 let's start

01:08:00.600 this discussion there.

01:08:02.780 When you think

01:08:04.240 about this

01:08:04.900 is this about safety?

01:08:06.980 Is it about comfort?

01:08:09.200 Is it about politics?

01:08:10.700 and you can't

01:08:13.920 just say

01:08:14.620 I'm a man

01:08:16.760 or I'm a woman

01:08:17.440 if you're not

01:08:18.220 and say that's

01:08:19.360 how I identify.

01:08:20.380 I identify as an

01:08:21.380 NFL linebacker

01:08:22.360 to be honest with you

01:08:23.400 but at 5'8

01:08:24.720 I don't think

01:08:25.280 it's going to happen

01:08:25.880 for me

01:08:26.340 but that's how I feel.

01:08:27.680 I identify

01:08:28.380 as an NFL linebacker.

01:08:30.620 You know

01:08:30.720 as a matter of fact

01:08:31.400 I don't want to be

01:08:32.160 a linebacker.

01:08:33.300 I want to be J.J. Watt.

01:08:34.460 That's what I want.

01:08:35.180 I want to be

01:08:35.600 that monster

01:08:37.440 of a defensive player.

01:08:38.680 So therefore

01:08:41.020 because I identify it

01:08:42.260 does it make it true?

01:08:43.220 It doesn't

01:08:43.680 and I'm not

01:08:44.180 mocking people

01:08:44.980 that are transgender.

01:08:45.940 I happen to know

01:08:46.640 a few people

01:08:47.780 that are transgender.

01:08:49.100 I'm not mocking them.

01:08:50.560 I'm saying

01:08:51.220 that what this argument

01:08:52.080 is about

01:08:52.660 is comfort

01:08:53.360 and so

01:08:56.260 you have people

01:08:57.300 that have

01:08:57.900 legitimate feelings

01:08:58.760 that say

01:08:59.360 you know

01:08:59.960 I am making

01:09:00.620 this transition

01:09:01.400 and I don't feel

01:09:03.000 comfortable

01:09:03.580 in the men's room.

01:09:05.280 I want to use

01:09:05.740 the ladies room.

01:09:06.960 Well then

01:09:07.240 when you go into

01:09:07.960 the ladies room

01:09:08.740 and a lady says

01:09:10.160 I'm uncomfortable

01:09:11.160 with you here

01:09:12.700 whose comfort wins out

01:09:14.600 that's when it becomes

01:09:16.540 a political argument

01:09:17.420 and that's where we are

01:09:18.980 with this conversation.

01:09:20.860 But it's not just

01:09:22.360 a restroom

01:09:23.460 it's a locker room

01:09:24.740 it is

01:09:25.840 girls in a public school

01:09:27.820 in a swim class

01:09:29.280 with a gentleman

01:09:31.140 that comes

01:09:31.560 I don't mean any insult

01:09:32.900 but a man

01:09:33.840 anatomically

01:09:35.260 changing

01:09:36.860 changing

01:09:36.880 with

01:09:37.620 teenage girls

01:09:38.720 all of these things

01:09:40.360 are really happening

01:09:41.120 and at what point

01:09:42.580 do we say

01:09:43.160 one person's comfort

01:09:44.200 over another?

01:09:45.460 There can be things

01:09:46.260 that can be worked out

01:09:47.160 you can say to somebody

01:09:48.280 that's transgender

01:09:49.060 you're going to have

01:09:50.280 to understand

01:09:51.060 a little bit

01:09:52.000 just like you want

01:09:52.760 them to understand

01:09:53.580 that there's mutual

01:09:55.180 understanding here

01:09:56.140 that by saying

01:09:57.140 you're not going

01:09:57.840 to change clothes

01:09:58.980 in a room full of women

01:10:00.800 does not insult

01:10:02.700 the fact that

01:10:03.240 you are making

01:10:03.680 a transition

01:10:04.400 to womanhood

01:10:05.440 we're saying

01:10:07.940 that the comfort

01:10:08.880 of our guests

01:10:09.680 matters

01:10:10.280 and when there's

01:10:11.360 12 guests

01:10:12.280 that are upset

01:10:12.960 and one guest

01:10:14.100 that's causing

01:10:14.640 the problem

01:10:15.260 guess who wins out

01:10:16.820 and if we can

01:10:20.300 have that conversation

01:10:21.400 I think it's reasonable

01:10:22.420 and I don't want

01:10:24.640 to win

01:10:24.800 I would never

01:10:25.600 insult anyone

01:10:26.660 because of that

01:10:28.660 I had somebody

01:10:29.400 that worked on a job

01:10:30.240 site for me

01:10:30.840 that's transgender

01:10:31.820 when I was an

01:10:32.660 electrical contractor

01:10:33.580 on a construction

01:10:34.560 site where you

01:10:35.180 would think

01:10:35.500 there would be

01:10:35.880 the most egregious

01:10:37.660 of acts against

01:10:38.360 this person

01:10:39.000 not at all

01:10:39.760 great worker

01:10:40.700 did a good job

01:10:41.680 within a day or two

01:10:42.660 accepted like

01:10:43.780 everybody else

01:10:44.320 on the job

01:10:44.840 people will accept

01:10:47.700 when they feel

01:10:48.860 if you're accepting

01:10:49.780 yourself

01:10:50.280 but when you make

01:10:51.100 demands

01:10:51.680 like you're going

01:10:52.640 to do this

01:10:53.160 you're going to

01:10:53.480 walk into a locker

01:10:54.320 room and say

01:10:54.780 you can all be

01:10:55.520 uncomfortable if you

01:10:56.280 want but I'm

01:10:56.860 changing in here

01:10:57.680 you're causing

01:10:58.780 the problem

01:10:59.360 at what point

01:11:00.860 do we look at

01:11:01.360 reality

01:11:01.840 I know it seems

01:11:03.020 silly but it's

01:11:03.800 becoming an everyday

01:11:04.700 occurrence in our

01:11:05.460 society

01:11:05.900 next hour we start

01:11:07.360 off with the

01:11:07.780 Affordable Care Act

01:11:08.720 and it's dismantling

01:11:10.040 Rand Paul saying

01:11:11.100 we've got to repeal

01:11:11.880 and replace like

01:11:12.560 was promised

01:11:13.160 I agree with him

01:11:14.240 so that coming up

01:11:14.860 in the next hour

01:11:15.400 my name is Mike

01:11:16.220 Broomhead and this

01:11:17.280 is the Glenn Beck

01:11:17.940 program

01:11:18.340 I'll be back

01:11:18.880 Glenn Beck

01:11:23.920 Mercury

01:11:26.100 the blaze radio network

01:11:42.360 on demand

01:11:46.140 the fusion of

01:12:08.940 entertainment

01:12:09.540 entertainment

01:12:09.560 and enlightenment

01:12:10.780 this is

01:12:12.300 the Glenn

01:12:13.160 Beck

01:12:14.180 program

01:12:15.400 hey I'm Mike

01:12:16.980 Broomhead

01:12:17.240 in for Glenn

01:12:17.740 thanks for being

01:12:18.400 here

01:12:18.700 some news about

01:12:20.240 the FBI

01:12:20.680 director's office

01:12:21.480 the president

01:12:22.280 just tweeting out

01:12:22.960 this morning

01:12:23.420 that he will be

01:12:24.300 nominating

01:12:24.720 Christopher A.

01:12:25.640 Ray

01:12:25.820 and in the tweet

01:12:26.580 he says a man

01:12:27.100 of impeccable

01:12:27.660 credentials

01:12:28.220 to be the new

01:12:29.140 director of the

01:12:29.700 FBI

01:12:30.100 details to follow

01:12:31.600 Christopher Ray

01:12:32.320 who was an

01:12:33.100 assistant

01:12:33.580 US attorney

01:12:35.240 or assistant

01:12:35.860 attorney general

01:12:37.860 is now a partner

01:12:38.760 at King and Spaulding

01:12:39.820 and is an acting

01:12:40.920 he will replace

01:12:42.420 the acting FBI

01:12:43.180 director Andrew

01:12:43.900 McCabe

01:12:44.340 if he is confirmed

01:12:45.280 he's got to be

01:12:45.720 confirmed by the

01:12:46.240 Senate for that

01:12:46.660 to happen

01:12:47.080 he's also set

01:12:48.280 to testify

01:12:49.040 tomorrow

01:12:50.120 at the same time

01:12:51.300 you're going to

01:12:51.620 see James Comey

01:12:52.340 testify

01:12:52.680 he is also set

01:12:53.620 to testify

01:12:54.140 in those proceedings

01:12:54.880 so we'll find out

01:12:56.520 more about

01:12:57.180 Christopher Ray

01:12:57.720 in the coming days

01:12:58.380 and the potential

01:12:58.900 for him to fill

01:12:59.800 that void

01:13:00.360 somebody that's

01:13:01.780 been in the

01:13:02.080 attorney general's

01:13:02.640 office before

01:13:03.320 he is somebody

01:13:04.200 that knows the law

01:13:05.200 and we'll see

01:13:05.880 if he's the right

01:13:06.800 person for the job

01:13:07.680 in the eyes

01:13:08.200 of the Senate

01:13:09.040 if he'll get

01:13:09.500 confirmed

01:13:09.980 what's been

01:13:10.960 interesting about

01:13:11.540 Senate confirmations

01:13:12.500 is no one

01:13:13.980 no nominee

01:13:15.540 has faced the

01:13:16.180 scrutiny that

01:13:16.820 Trump nominees

01:13:17.820 have faced

01:13:18.440 and it all has

01:13:19.700 to do with

01:13:20.120 the president

01:13:20.580 we talked

01:13:21.640 earlier about

01:13:22.780 what's going on

01:13:23.540 in this investigation

01:13:24.200 into Russia

01:13:25.140 and a lot of

01:13:26.440 this I've got to

01:13:27.620 give you've got to

01:13:28.080 give from just

01:13:28.880 a political aspect

01:13:29.840 not for what's

01:13:30.560 good for America

01:13:31.220 not the right

01:13:31.940 thing to do

01:13:32.500 but when you look

01:13:33.320 at American politics

01:13:34.400 the Democrats

01:13:35.560 are being

01:13:35.940 obstructionists

01:13:36.740 without being

01:13:37.500 labeled

01:13:37.940 obstructionists

01:13:39.040 and it is

01:13:40.200 a brilliant plan

01:13:41.920 if that's their

01:13:42.620 plan

01:13:42.960 because we don't

01:13:44.560 want to support

01:13:45.700 or put any

01:13:48.240 nominee in place

01:13:49.480 of the president

01:13:50.280 while he's under

01:13:51.160 investigation

01:13:51.800 he's being

01:13:52.640 investigated about

01:13:53.540 the Russians

01:13:53.960 those are serious

01:13:54.760 charges

01:13:55.200 well it doesn't

01:13:56.280 matter that there's

01:13:56.980 no evidence

01:13:57.840 six months into

01:13:58.940 this presidency

01:13:59.640 or close to it

01:14:00.640 no evidence

01:14:02.180 of any of it

01:14:03.380 but there's

01:14:05.460 still the charges

01:14:06.160 there's still

01:14:06.880 the investigation

01:14:07.680 going on

01:14:08.540 therefore

01:14:09.200 we don't want

01:14:10.080 to enact

01:14:10.380 any laws

01:14:11.020 we don't want

01:14:11.740 to put through

01:14:12.700 any nominees

01:14:13.280 we don't want

01:14:14.120 to seat anybody

01:14:15.040 until this is

01:14:16.160 resolved

01:14:16.600 and that's only

01:14:17.360 fair to the

01:14:17.800 American people

01:14:18.480 what if this

01:14:19.040 president were

01:14:19.480 to get impeached

01:14:20.160 why would we

01:14:21.080 seat some of

01:14:21.660 his nominees

01:14:22.140 if he's

01:14:22.680 what a brilliant

01:14:24.180 plan that is

01:14:25.020 you can

01:14:25.740 hamstring the

01:14:27.100 agenda

01:14:27.520 you can

01:14:28.600 damage the

01:14:30.280 president's

01:14:30.760 reputation

01:14:31.300 you can do

01:14:32.320 all of those

01:14:32.940 things without

01:14:33.640 appearing to be

01:14:34.440 an obstructionist

01:14:35.220 because in the

01:14:36.040 last election

01:14:36.620 cycle we found

01:14:37.500 out that the

01:14:38.380 American people

01:14:39.160 on both sides

01:14:39.880 of the aisle

01:14:40.300 didn't want

01:14:40.860 anything to do

01:14:41.480 with the status

01:14:42.000 quo

01:14:42.340 Donald Trump

01:14:43.540 beat big

01:14:45.300 political names

01:14:46.540 he's never held

01:14:47.820 public office

01:14:48.520 before

01:14:48.920 the first public

01:14:50.240 office he's

01:14:51.000 held is

01:14:52.160 president of

01:14:53.040 the United

01:14:53.420 States

01:14:53.920 and if you

01:14:54.660 look on the

01:14:55.020 other side of

01:14:55.520 the aisle

01:14:55.800 if it weren't

01:14:56.280 for the

01:14:56.580 superdelegates

01:14:57.320 and the

01:14:57.620 fixing of

01:14:58.160 votes the

01:14:58.540 way the

01:14:58.820 Democrats

01:14:59.160 did that

01:14:59.780 from the

01:15:00.440 beginning

01:15:00.740 Hillary was

01:15:01.300 the heir

01:15:01.560 apparent to

01:15:02.040 the Democrat

01:15:02.480 nomination

01:15:03.260 there was

01:15:04.400 no doubt

01:15:04.760 about that

01:15:05.260 the superdelegates

01:15:06.940 were hers

01:15:07.480 the day she

01:15:08.840 announced she

01:15:09.340 was running

01:15:09.760 Bernie Sanders

01:15:10.860 didn't have a

01:15:11.360 chance but

01:15:12.200 Bernie Sanders

01:15:12.800 raised a ton

01:15:13.640 of money

01:15:13.980 Bernie Sanders

01:15:14.880 had a lot of

01:15:15.560 public support

01:15:16.260 still does

01:15:17.700 now which

01:15:18.280 scares me

01:15:18.840 because he's

01:15:19.440 a self-affirmed

01:15:20.240 socialist

01:15:20.620 but he's got

01:15:21.440 a lot of

01:15:21.900 support in this

01:15:22.420 country

01:15:22.740 the status quo

01:15:24.240 was not what

01:15:24.760 the American

01:15:25.180 people wanted

01:15:25.900 not even close

01:15:27.260 and so

01:15:29.360 with that

01:15:30.080 being said

01:15:30.840 we're looking

01:15:31.920 at a

01:15:32.680 replacement

01:15:33.680 here

01:15:34.080 we're looking

01:15:34.540 at a guy

01:15:35.160 that the

01:15:35.560 president is

01:15:36.040 going to put

01:15:36.540 in place

01:15:37.100 and nominate

01:15:38.360 will the

01:15:39.080 Senate

01:15:39.360 confirm

01:15:40.160 because so

01:15:42.040 far they said

01:15:42.640 we don't want

01:15:43.020 to do any

01:15:43.360 of this

01:15:43.720 because what

01:15:44.540 if he's not

01:15:44.900 around

01:15:45.240 what if we

01:15:46.040 find something

01:15:46.660 in this

01:15:47.000 investigation

01:15:47.480 it is

01:15:48.120 it's a

01:15:48.480 brilliant

01:15:48.820 plan

01:15:49.280 I mean

01:15:49.780 it's damaging

01:15:50.320 to the

01:15:50.660 American

01:15:51.000 people

01:15:51.400 it's not

01:15:51.800 what the

01:15:52.060 American

01:15:52.320 people voted

01:15:52.920 for

01:15:53.240 it's not

01:15:53.920 how the

01:15:54.200 system was

01:15:54.620 intended to

01:15:55.140 be done

01:15:55.840 and what's

01:15:56.240 funny is

01:15:56.580 when the

01:15:56.820 Republicans

01:15:57.280 have said

01:15:57.840 when a

01:15:58.700 nominee for

01:15:59.220 President Obama

01:15:59.960 was put up

01:16:00.580 the Republicans

01:16:01.460 said

01:16:01.940 you know

01:16:02.640 what the

01:16:02.900 deal is

01:16:03.480 that the

01:16:04.120 president

01:16:04.420 deserves the

01:16:05.000 benefit of

01:16:05.420 the doubt

01:16:05.800 that unless

01:16:06.640 that person

01:16:07.240 has some

01:16:07.620 egregious

01:16:08.100 thing about

01:16:08.560 them that

01:16:08.860 we can't

01:16:09.400 tolerate

01:16:09.760 we have

01:16:10.940 to put

01:16:11.280 them through

01:16:11.760 I mean

01:16:12.060 that's the

01:16:12.700 president's

01:16:13.220 purview

01:16:13.540 elections have

01:16:14.680 consequences

01:16:15.300 so the

01:16:15.960 Republicans

01:16:16.380 have been

01:16:16.640 the good

01:16:16.920 guys

01:16:17.160 and then

01:16:17.440 part of

01:16:17.700 the base

01:16:18.020 says to

01:16:18.380 the

01:16:18.500 Republicans

01:16:18.920 you should

01:16:19.660 fight fire

01:16:20.220 with fire

01:16:20.740 and they

01:16:21.040 say we've

01:16:21.320 got to

01:16:21.560 maintain the

01:16:22.120 integrity

01:16:22.540 so at

01:16:24.160 what point

01:16:24.700 now are

01:16:25.480 the Democrats

01:16:26.020 going to be

01:16:26.380 held accountable

01:16:27.060 for integrity

01:16:28.040 Donald Trump

01:16:29.160 is the

01:16:29.460 president of

01:16:29.900 the United

01:16:30.140 States

01:16:30.560 Donald Trump

01:16:31.600 is nominating

01:16:32.560 somebody that

01:16:33.080 appears to be

01:16:33.740 very capable

01:16:34.440 a man that

01:16:35.360 knows the

01:16:35.740 law a man

01:16:36.340 that knows

01:16:36.660 the American

01:16:37.120 government

01:16:37.560 the man

01:16:37.920 that's

01:16:38.140 worked hand

01:16:38.540 in hand

01:16:38.920 because of

01:16:39.500 his position

01:16:40.000 with the

01:16:40.320 Federal Bureau

01:16:40.740 of Investigations

01:16:41.660 we'll see

01:16:42.880 how much

01:16:43.300 pushback

01:16:43.780 there comes

01:16:44.240 on this

01:16:44.520 guy

01:16:44.760 you watch

01:16:46.240 we get a

01:16:47.040 Supreme Court

01:16:47.620 justice that

01:16:48.260 was just

01:16:48.660 seated

01:16:48.960 that was

01:16:49.620 unanimously

01:16:50.440 unanimously

01:16:51.700 voted

01:16:52.380 many of the

01:16:53.420 same senators

01:16:54.120 that opposed

01:16:54.700 him for the

01:16:55.100 Supreme Court

01:16:55.760 voted for him

01:16:56.900 or for the

01:16:57.240 appeals court

01:16:57.920 when it came

01:16:59.620 time for a

01:17:00.340 Supreme Court

01:17:00.780 nomination all

01:17:01.600 of a sudden

01:17:01.960 they had

01:17:02.200 problems with

01:17:02.780 this guy

01:17:03.240 and he was

01:17:03.980 an extremist

01:17:04.660 are we going

01:17:05.660 to see the

01:17:06.580 same kind of

01:17:07.300 thing happen

01:17:07.820 here that's

01:17:08.720 the big

01:17:09.000 question

01:17:09.440 so in the

01:17:11.260 coming days

01:17:11.700 you'll see

01:17:12.000 if you're

01:17:12.220 just jumping

01:17:12.640 in

01:17:12.920 Christopher

01:17:13.480 A.

01:17:13.840 Ray

01:17:13.960 Christopher

01:17:14.340 Ray

01:17:14.780 will be

01:17:15.820 nominated

01:17:16.220 by President

01:17:16.820 Trump

01:17:17.160 to become

01:17:18.740 the FBI

01:17:19.880 director

01:17:20.260 replacing

01:17:20.720 the interim

01:17:21.180 director

01:17:21.540 Andrew

01:17:21.820 McCabe

01:17:22.220 we'll see

01:17:23.020 if that

01:17:23.360 happens

01:17:23.700 or how

01:17:23.960 quickly

01:17:24.220 that can

01:17:24.560 happen

01:17:24.840 he is

01:17:25.480 set to

01:17:25.840 testify

01:17:26.180 tomorrow

01:17:26.600 which is

01:17:27.000 going to

01:17:27.280 be a big

01:17:27.640 part of

01:17:27.940 that now

01:17:28.320 people will

01:17:28.920 be paying

01:17:29.200 close attention

01:17:30.120 to that

01:17:30.500 testimony

01:17:30.980 as well

01:17:31.640 as the

01:17:31.900 testimony

01:17:32.240 of James

01:17:32.960 Comey

01:17:33.280 himself

01:17:33.680 so one

01:17:34.820 of the

01:17:34.980 headlines

01:17:35.280 coming in

01:17:35.900 also in

01:17:36.940 the headlines

01:17:37.280 we know

01:17:37.660 that the

01:17:38.060 Notre Dame

01:17:38.820 attacker

01:17:39.340 the man

01:17:40.200 that attacked

01:17:40.680 a police

01:17:41.140 officer

01:17:41.460 with a

01:17:41.720 hammer

01:17:41.960 at Notre

01:17:42.640 Dame

01:17:42.960 yesterday

01:17:43.640 said that

01:17:45.120 he was

01:17:45.440 a soldier

01:17:45.960 of the

01:17:46.320 caliphate

01:17:46.860 there was

01:17:47.640 one police

01:17:48.160 officer

01:17:48.540 with minor

01:17:49.300 injuries

01:17:49.700 the suspect

01:17:50.680 was shot

01:17:51.300 and then

01:17:51.600 taken to

01:17:51.940 a hospital

01:17:52.500 twin attacks

01:17:53.480 in Tehran

01:17:54.320 where they

01:17:55.240 attacked

01:17:55.780 the statue

01:17:56.660 of the

01:17:57.760 Ayatollah

01:17:58.260 Khomeini

01:17:58.640 they also

01:17:59.380 attacked

01:17:59.740 at parliament

01:18:00.220 multiple

01:18:00.660 people killed

01:18:01.340 there were

01:18:01.620 injuries

01:18:01.940 that were

01:18:02.200 reported

01:18:02.620 and it

01:18:03.480 was a

01:18:03.880 shock

01:18:04.100 to many

01:18:04.420 people

01:18:04.760 that ISIS

01:18:05.440 would attack

01:18:06.620 in Iran

01:18:07.280 well we

01:18:08.480 had a great

01:18:08.880 conversation

01:18:09.440 today

01:18:09.840 with Cal

01:18:12.000 who works

01:18:12.440 here with

01:18:13.160 us

01:18:13.380 and explaining

01:18:14.980 the difference

01:18:15.460 with Sunni

01:18:16.060 and Shia

01:18:16.560 and that this

01:18:17.060 is more about

01:18:17.560 a tribal

01:18:18.060 battle

01:18:18.520 within their

01:18:19.320 religion

01:18:19.700 but what's

01:18:20.180 interesting

01:18:20.540 about this

01:18:21.180 is Iran

01:18:22.260 has been

01:18:22.880 helping to

01:18:23.440 there's been

01:18:23.800 no doubt

01:18:24.360 that they've

01:18:25.080 been helping

01:18:25.420 to fund

01:18:25.920 ISIS

01:18:26.380 probably never

01:18:27.620 imagining

01:18:28.080 even though

01:18:28.620 politically

01:18:29.100 or I shouldn't

01:18:29.700 say politically

01:18:30.080 because their

01:18:31.240 religion is also

01:18:32.300 their political

01:18:32.840 system

01:18:33.320 that politically

01:18:34.280 and religiously

01:18:35.160 they butted

01:18:35.940 heads

01:18:36.440 on theology

01:18:37.440 that they

01:18:38.440 hated each

01:18:38.880 other

01:18:39.040 to a certain

01:18:39.520 extent

01:18:39.920 that there

01:18:40.260 is this

01:18:40.580 huge

01:18:40.920 battle

01:18:41.380 where the

01:18:42.080 Sunnis

01:18:42.380 see the

01:18:42.760 Shia

01:18:43.020 as basically

01:18:44.220 as being

01:18:46.660 not treasonous

01:18:47.600 as much

01:18:47.980 as being

01:18:48.560 blasphemers

01:18:49.920 and yet

01:18:51.460 they were

01:18:52.220 funding

01:18:52.800 the terrorism

01:18:53.760 that they

01:18:54.100 were taking

01:18:54.800 out

01:18:55.100 because they

01:18:55.580 were fighting

01:18:56.040 the Jews

01:18:56.720 they were

01:18:57.020 fighting the

01:18:57.500 West

01:18:57.760 they were

01:18:58.020 fighting the

01:18:58.440 Christians

01:18:58.820 they were

01:18:59.420 fighting the

01:18:59.840 infidel

01:19:00.300 so they

01:19:01.060 were funding

01:19:01.620 them and

01:19:02.000 helping them

01:19:02.480 now all of a

01:19:03.440 sudden the

01:19:03.900 funding the

01:19:04.420 training and

01:19:05.280 the arms were

01:19:06.000 turned against

01:19:06.580 them inside

01:19:07.520 of Tehran

01:19:08.060 sending another

01:19:09.120 message from the

01:19:09.780 people of ISIS

01:19:10.400 that no one's

01:19:11.420 safe

01:19:11.660 no one is

01:19:13.600 safe

01:19:14.040 but what now

01:19:15.320 will the

01:19:15.660 Iranians do

01:19:16.480 when it comes

01:19:17.260 to the

01:19:17.620 funding

01:19:18.080 and the

01:19:19.380 training

01:19:19.840 and the

01:19:20.720 arming

01:19:21.160 of ISIS

01:19:22.140 it was

01:19:23.960 staggering

01:19:24.660 or shocking

01:19:25.180 to me

01:19:25.640 that that

01:19:26.340 happened

01:19:26.640 but it did

01:19:27.120 it was

01:19:27.320 something that

01:19:27.700 happened

01:19:28.020 yesterday

01:19:28.620 those twin

01:19:29.800 attacks

01:19:30.260 earlier we

01:19:31.340 talked about

01:19:31.780 the attacks

01:19:32.360 at Manchester

01:19:33.580 at the

01:19:34.040 concert

01:19:34.340 also the

01:19:35.360 London Bridge

01:19:35.920 attacks where

01:19:36.640 48 people

01:19:37.560 were injured

01:19:38.200 and 7

01:19:38.780 people were

01:19:39.300 killed

01:19:39.600 and Theresa

01:19:41.780 May speaking

01:19:42.420 out about the

01:19:43.040 future of

01:19:43.460 Great Britain

01:19:43.960 and that if

01:19:45.020 their human

01:19:45.500 rights laws

01:19:46.280 get in the

01:19:47.900 way of the

01:19:49.140 British government

01:19:49.820 being able to

01:19:50.600 identify and

01:19:52.240 then purge

01:19:53.180 from their

01:19:53.840 midst people

01:19:54.780 that don't

01:19:55.200 belong there

01:19:55.960 that they

01:19:56.980 would change

01:19:57.440 their laws

01:19:58.020 and people

01:19:59.160 erupted on

01:19:59.960 social media

01:20:00.600 you know it's

01:20:01.300 the same way

01:20:01.740 they erupted

01:20:02.240 at President

01:20:03.160 Trump when

01:20:03.620 he said he

01:20:03.980 wanted a

01:20:04.320 temporary

01:20:04.600 travel ban

01:20:05.340 and I

01:20:06.380 was someone

01:20:06.820 that when

01:20:07.080 he said he

01:20:07.480 wanted a

01:20:07.780 Muslim ban

01:20:08.320 I was one

01:20:08.840 of the first

01:20:09.220 people that

01:20:09.620 jumped in

01:20:09.960 and said

01:20:10.140 he can't

01:20:10.500 do it

01:20:10.740 they're never

01:20:11.060 going to

01:20:11.300 allow it

01:20:11.720 it's a

01:20:12.940 silly thing

01:20:13.420 to say

01:20:13.840 that's a

01:20:14.460 religious test

01:20:15.140 we can't

01:20:15.900 keep people

01:20:17.020 out of our

01:20:17.420 country

01:20:17.760 because of

01:20:18.520 their religion

01:20:19.220 our constitution

01:20:20.040 won't let

01:20:20.820 you do that

01:20:21.480 he has revised

01:20:22.540 his statements

01:20:23.160 ever since

01:20:23.940 about it not

01:20:24.700 being about

01:20:25.140 a religious

01:20:25.620 ban but

01:20:26.420 about it being

01:20:26.980 specifically

01:20:27.680 a ban on

01:20:28.500 terrorism

01:20:29.080 well you can't

01:20:30.520 not look at

01:20:31.120 the religious

01:20:31.540 aspect of

01:20:32.240 that

01:20:32.460 that doesn't

01:20:33.540 mean all

01:20:33.920 Muslims must

01:20:34.540 be banned

01:20:35.040 but when

01:20:35.680 we're taking

01:20:36.100 in refugees

01:20:36.900 from Muslim

01:20:38.120 countries like

01:20:38.860 Syria

01:20:39.360 we need a

01:20:41.020 vetting process

01:20:41.800 to make sure

01:20:43.000 that the

01:20:43.840 rebels

01:20:44.420 or I should

01:20:45.360 say the

01:20:45.800 Syrian fighters

01:20:46.480 the ISIS

01:20:46.960 fighters

01:20:47.420 the antagonists

01:20:48.700 the ones that

01:20:49.140 are killing

01:20:49.560 the Syrian

01:20:50.060 people

01:20:50.560 killing the

01:20:51.540 refugees

01:20:51.980 aren't

01:20:52.860 infiltrating

01:20:53.440 their ranks

01:20:53.920 to come here

01:20:54.440 to set up

01:20:54.880 shop

01:20:55.240 somebody

01:20:56.400 explain to

01:20:56.900 me how

01:20:57.160 that A

01:20:57.540 is racist

01:20:58.180 or somehow

01:20:59.200 illegal

01:20:59.860 or against

01:21:00.400 our constitution

01:21:01.140 because it

01:21:01.740 isn't

01:21:02.140 but Theresa

01:21:04.100 May echoing

01:21:04.840 that saying

01:21:05.200 they'll change

01:21:05.640 the laws

01:21:06.000 if they have

01:21:06.540 to in that

01:21:07.440 country

01:21:07.920 the NSA

01:21:09.160 leaker's parents

01:21:09.900 spoke out

01:21:10.360 and said that

01:21:10.800 she was

01:21:11.420 and we're

01:21:11.880 talking about

01:21:12.340 reality winner

01:21:13.100 that she was

01:21:14.480 afraid she was

01:21:15.180 going to disappear

01:21:15.980 that she felt

01:21:16.820 like she was

01:21:17.280 being coerced

01:21:17.940 into cooperating

01:21:18.740 if you look at

01:21:19.680 that girl's

01:21:20.100 Twitter page

01:21:20.700 there's absolutely

01:21:21.660 no way

01:21:22.280 anybody can

01:21:23.140 believe there's

01:21:23.560 collusion

01:21:23.980 that there's

01:21:24.580 fear there

01:21:25.160 she is

01:21:26.320 she hates

01:21:26.960 Donald Trump

01:21:27.600 she says so

01:21:28.280 in her tweets

01:21:28.780 she sided with

01:21:29.500 the Iranians

01:21:30.200 over the

01:21:30.540 Americans

01:21:30.960 can you

01:21:31.680 imagine

01:21:32.300 somebody in

01:21:33.120 the White

01:21:33.480 House

01:21:33.720 with a

01:21:34.100 top secret

01:21:34.820 clearance

01:21:35.380 that is

01:21:36.180 espousing

01:21:36.740 on social

01:21:37.320 media

01:21:37.700 that she

01:21:38.620 will go

01:21:38.980 against the

01:21:39.520 president she

01:21:40.120 works for

01:21:40.680 and stand

01:21:41.380 with the

01:21:41.700 Iranian

01:21:41.960 people

01:21:42.440 and keep

01:21:43.460 a top secret

01:21:44.100 clearance in

01:21:44.860 the White

01:21:45.180 House

01:21:45.460 and that's

01:21:46.220 what happened

01:21:46.700 and so she's

01:21:47.620 been accused

01:21:48.060 of leaking NSA

01:21:48.740 documents

01:21:49.300 her parents

01:21:49.940 saying she

01:21:50.320 was afraid

01:21:50.780 that's why

01:21:51.200 she did

01:21:51.580 it

01:21:51.820 another carrier

01:21:53.260 out of

01:21:53.960 the ASACA

01:21:54.980 of the

01:21:55.240 Affordable Care

01:21:56.080 Act

01:21:56.300 we're going

01:21:56.800 to talk

01:21:57.140 about this

01:21:57.580 Rand Paul

01:21:58.160 says the

01:21:58.600 Republicans

01:21:59.040 must keep

01:21:59.880 their promise

01:22:00.440 I agree

01:22:01.140 with him

01:22:01.480 you've got

01:22:02.100 to repeal

01:22:02.720 Obamacare

01:22:03.400 and then

01:22:03.860 figure out

01:22:04.340 a way

01:22:04.680 to get

01:22:05.260 affordable

01:22:05.780 health care

01:22:06.540 available to

01:22:07.500 the American

01:22:07.940 people and

01:22:08.460 what would

01:22:08.760 that look

01:22:09.120 like

01:22:09.360 and a story

01:22:10.060 about one

01:22:10.580 more company

01:22:11.420 leaving those

01:22:12.200 exchanges

01:22:12.620 all those

01:22:13.000 coming up

01:22:13.360 here in the

01:22:13.620 next segment

01:22:14.040 of the show

01:22:14.460 again this is

01:22:15.500 the Glenn Beck

01:22:15.920 program my name

01:22:16.540 is Mike

01:22:16.840 Broomhead

01:22:17.220 I'll be back

01:22:18.500 all right if

01:22:42.040 you're just

01:22:42.340 joining us

01:22:42.880 the president

01:22:44.020 is nominating

01:22:44.900 someone named

01:22:45.520 Christopher

01:22:46.000 Ray he was

01:22:47.200 an attorney

01:22:47.920 he was an

01:22:48.480 assistant

01:22:48.820 attorney general

01:22:49.580 for a while

01:22:50.060 he was working

01:22:50.360 in the attorney

01:22:50.680 general's office

01:22:51.300 he's now a

01:22:52.080 partner in a

01:22:52.500 law firm

01:22:53.020 well most

01:22:54.400 known for

01:22:55.320 and I just

01:22:55.840 found this

01:22:56.300 out as

01:22:56.820 representing

01:22:57.320 Chris Christie

01:22:57.960 in Bridgegate

01:22:58.580 he was a

01:22:58.960 Bridgegate

01:22:59.260 attorney

01:22:59.600 so he is

01:23:00.640 being nominated

01:23:01.320 as the new

01:23:02.360 FBI director

01:23:03.300 that's kind of

01:23:04.040 some breaking

01:23:04.420 news just in

01:23:04.940 the last couple

01:23:05.420 of hours he

01:23:05.980 will be nominated

01:23:06.760 by the president

01:23:07.360 also someone

01:23:07.960 that's set to

01:23:08.420 testify tomorrow

01:23:09.660 before the same

01:23:10.660 hearing that

01:23:11.580 you will hear

01:23:12.440 and see James

01:23:13.420 Comey testify

01:23:14.180 the Affordable

01:23:15.820 Care Act

01:23:16.460 which is

01:23:17.600 really kind

01:23:18.700 of an oxymoron

01:23:19.420 we all realize

01:23:20.140 the implosion

01:23:20.820 of Obamacare

01:23:21.680 I was just

01:23:22.800 talking with

01:23:23.440 Doc Thompson

01:23:24.520 a few moments

01:23:25.020 ago and

01:23:25.680 being from

01:23:26.460 Ohio he was

01:23:27.060 explaining that

01:23:27.940 18 of the

01:23:28.420 88 counties

01:23:29.140 in Ohio are

01:23:29.920 going to be

01:23:30.560 without a

01:23:31.760 carrier

01:23:32.100 that doesn't

01:23:33.540 include the

01:23:33.920 ones that

01:23:34.220 only have

01:23:34.580 one option

01:23:35.200 without a

01:23:35.880 carrier

01:23:36.140 18 counties

01:23:36.940 that's 20%

01:23:37.900 I was telling

01:23:38.880 him about the

01:23:39.300 state of Arizona

01:23:39.920 where I live

01:23:40.560 in the state

01:23:41.200 of Arizona

01:23:41.780 premiums have

01:23:42.920 jumped so much

01:23:43.840 this year

01:23:44.640 that in

01:23:45.540 every single

01:23:46.440 county in

01:23:47.360 the state

01:23:47.660 of Arizona

01:23:48.160 every county

01:23:48.920 and if you

01:23:50.060 want to go

01:23:50.440 to one of

01:23:51.420 our senators

01:23:51.900 Jeff Flake

01:23:52.460 Jeff Flake's

01:23:53.100 website did

01:23:53.960 a great job

01:23:54.580 with this

01:23:54.940 with the

01:23:55.340 table that

01:23:56.060 the Flake

01:23:56.900 website put

01:23:57.840 out

01:23:58.100 every single

01:23:59.260 county in

01:24:00.020 the state

01:24:00.380 of Arizona

01:24:00.980 a family of

01:24:02.320 four on the

01:24:03.020 exchanges pays

01:24:04.060 more in health

01:24:04.720 insurance premiums

01:24:05.800 than they do

01:24:06.400 for their

01:24:06.700 mortgage on

01:24:07.500 average

01:24:07.920 every county

01:24:09.220 in the state

01:24:09.760 of Arizona

01:24:10.280 there was a

01:24:11.040 time where

01:24:11.540 there were

01:24:11.800 none in

01:24:12.440 some of the

01:24:12.760 major counties

01:24:13.360 in Arizona

01:24:13.800 one company

01:24:14.740 was put in

01:24:15.320 place

01:24:15.660 and that

01:24:16.400 one company

01:24:17.280 they're all

01:24:18.260 going to fall

01:24:18.760 out

01:24:18.980 they're all

01:24:19.480 leaving

01:24:19.900 because they

01:24:20.880 are so broke

01:24:21.920 from having to

01:24:22.760 cover the

01:24:23.200 pre-existing

01:24:23.680 conditions

01:24:24.240 and healthy

01:24:25.120 people don't

01:24:25.720 want it

01:24:26.140 if you don't

01:24:27.260 understand

01:24:27.640 I mean I

01:24:28.000 think everybody

01:24:28.500 intellectually

01:24:29.020 understands

01:24:29.660 when you're

01:24:30.560 young and

01:24:31.200 single

01:24:31.580 you're 10

01:24:32.140 feet tall

01:24:32.580 and bullet

01:24:32.940 proof

01:24:33.240 you have no

01:24:34.780 need for

01:24:35.180 health insurance

01:24:35.840 and that

01:24:36.460 I'm not saying

01:24:37.000 that's smart

01:24:37.580 I'm just saying

01:24:38.160 that's the way

01:24:38.680 people are

01:24:39.360 so you tell

01:24:40.540 a 20

01:24:41.320 what are you

01:24:42.020 you may on

01:24:42.460 your parents

01:24:42.880 health care

01:24:43.360 plan now

01:24:43.800 until you're

01:24:44.120 what 38

01:24:44.640 but you

01:24:45.400 you tell

01:24:46.040 someone that's

01:24:46.660 in their

01:24:46.880 late 20s

01:24:47.560 that now

01:24:48.400 has to go

01:24:48.820 out and find

01:24:49.240 their own

01:24:49.540 health insurance

01:24:50.220 and you say

01:24:51.000 to them

01:24:51.380 you've got

01:24:52.140 to have it

01:24:52.700 it's mandated

01:24:53.460 and you're

01:24:53.720 like I don't

01:24:54.100 want it

01:24:54.600 well yes

01:24:55.200 it's mandated

01:24:55.900 and by the

01:24:56.480 way the median

01:24:57.160 price you're

01:24:57.720 going to pay

01:24:58.200 is $400

01:24:59.300 a month

01:25:00.100 well that's a

01:25:00.740 house payment

01:25:01.220 for some

01:25:01.660 people

01:25:02.000 that's more

01:25:02.920 than their

01:25:03.260 car and

01:25:03.860 insurance payments

01:25:04.720 for many

01:25:05.120 people

01:25:05.540 that's not

01:25:06.340 discretionary

01:25:07.060 income people

01:25:07.780 have

01:25:08.260 so this

01:25:09.580 healthy young

01:25:10.440 person says

01:25:11.060 I'm not

01:25:11.580 I'm not

01:25:11.900 doing it

01:25:12.240 I'll pay

01:25:12.560 the fines

01:25:13.080 I'll pay

01:25:13.460 the penalty

01:25:13.900 I'll pay

01:25:14.780 whichever is

01:25:15.320 less

01:25:15.660 so they

01:25:16.320 don't have

01:25:16.600 insurance

01:25:17.000 but they're

01:25:17.380 paying a

01:25:17.720 small fine

01:25:18.320 the people

01:25:19.180 that are

01:25:19.460 signing up

01:25:19.980 are the

01:25:20.260 people with

01:25:20.700 pre-existing

01:25:21.340 conditions

01:25:21.920 that it's

01:25:22.760 actually less

01:25:23.520 expensive to

01:25:24.280 be $30,000

01:25:25.340 a year out of

01:25:26.120 pocket as a

01:25:26.700 family of four

01:25:27.420 than it would

01:25:28.360 be than to

01:25:29.040 just pay for

01:25:29.640 your own

01:25:29.880 health care

01:25:30.300 or at least

01:25:30.720 be on the

01:25:31.080 hook for it

01:25:31.640 that's the

01:25:32.960 problem with

01:25:33.440 the exchanges

01:25:34.000 and just like

01:25:35.200 automobile

01:25:35.580 insurance and

01:25:36.400 people hate when I

01:25:37.440 do this but

01:25:37.920 it's as close to

01:25:38.680 comparison as

01:25:39.320 can be

01:25:39.760 with automobile

01:25:40.940 insurance companies

01:25:42.000 they have

01:25:43.060 deregulated a lot

01:25:44.000 of that

01:25:44.340 that's why

01:25:45.000 they are in

01:25:45.420 all 50 states

01:25:46.460 that's why

01:25:46.980 you see

01:25:47.500 all of the

01:25:48.280 major insurance

01:25:48.960 carriers with

01:25:49.700 you know

01:25:50.060 with different

01:25:50.960 whether it's a

01:25:51.840 lizard or it's

01:25:52.560 that woman

01:25:52.900 flow or

01:25:53.620 mayhem

01:25:54.620 or whoever

01:25:54.940 they are

01:25:55.300 they've all

01:25:55.720 got some

01:25:56.240 kind of a

01:25:57.040 mascot to

01:25:57.900 make you

01:25:58.220 remember them

01:25:58.780 and want to

01:25:59.120 buy their

01:25:59.460 insurance

01:25:59.980 well what

01:26:00.780 helps them

01:26:01.760 and here's

01:26:02.580 where the

01:26:02.780 comparisons are

01:26:03.680 with health

01:26:04.480 insurance

01:26:05.040 you have

01:26:06.000 pre-existing

01:26:06.520 conditions

01:26:07.200 with automobile

01:26:08.800 insurance

01:26:09.400 you have

01:26:10.140 risk

01:26:10.600 you have

01:26:11.320 people with

01:26:11.700 a lot of

01:26:12.020 tickets

01:26:12.300 you have

01:26:12.600 people with

01:26:12.960 accidents

01:26:13.320 you have

01:26:13.600 people with

01:26:13.920 DUIs

01:26:14.480 you have

01:26:14.760 people that

01:26:15.100 live in

01:26:15.360 dangerous

01:26:15.760 neighborhoods

01:26:16.200 that are

01:26:16.740 high crime

01:26:17.320 areas

01:26:17.580 high auto

01:26:18.120 theft areas

01:26:18.780 so if you

01:26:19.700 live in a

01:26:20.540 gated community

01:26:21.200 or park your

01:26:21.860 car in a garage

01:26:22.600 you're a safer

01:26:23.340 risk

01:26:23.720 if you're

01:26:24.440 someone that's

01:26:24.960 never had a

01:26:25.500 ticket

01:26:25.720 you're a safer

01:26:26.400 risk

01:26:26.740 never had a DUI

01:26:27.980 safer risk

01:26:28.880 no accidents

01:26:29.720 there's the

01:26:30.620 difference

01:26:30.960 so someone with a

01:26:31.960 pre-existing health

01:26:32.720 condition and

01:26:33.460 somebody that's a

01:26:34.280 risky driver

01:26:35.020 it's not

01:26:35.840 exactly the

01:26:36.660 same but

01:26:37.220 they're comparable

01:26:37.900 when you have

01:26:38.900 that many

01:26:39.400 insurance carriers

01:26:40.300 fighting for your

01:26:40.980 business two

01:26:41.560 things happen

01:26:42.180 one they share

01:26:43.660 the risk

01:26:44.140 everybody takes

01:26:45.760 their share of

01:26:46.680 the high risk

01:26:47.200 drivers but

01:26:48.520 they also realize

01:26:49.900 there's eight or

01:26:50.980 ten companies

01:26:51.680 fighting for your

01:26:52.700 business so the

01:26:54.320 costs go down

01:26:55.100 the options are

01:26:56.480 open now when I

01:26:57.860 was young I

01:26:59.700 drove cars that

01:27:00.660 were worthless

01:27:01.220 when it broke

01:27:02.480 down or something

01:27:03.340 happened you

01:27:04.040 drive it into a

01:27:04.700 bridge who

01:27:05.340 cares I'm not

01:27:06.880 going to get

01:27:07.220 full coverage on

01:27:09.260 a car that's

01:27:10.280 worth $500

01:27:10.980 well now I'm

01:27:12.700 older and I've

01:27:13.820 accumulated some

01:27:14.520 stuff and I

01:27:15.540 drive a beautiful

01:27:16.340 Ford F-150 that

01:27:17.500 I love so what

01:27:18.800 do I do I have

01:27:19.820 not only do I

01:27:20.360 have full coverage

01:27:21.060 glass coverage

01:27:21.860 towing roadside

01:27:23.160 assistance I've

01:27:24.320 upped all of my

01:27:25.100 limits to make

01:27:26.140 sure that if God

01:27:26.840 forbid something

01:27:27.460 were to happen I'm

01:27:28.360 covered we should

01:27:30.360 be able to do the

01:27:30.900 same thing with

01:27:31.420 health care provide a

01:27:32.800 catastrophic plan for

01:27:33.920 a young person

01:27:34.620 that says if

01:27:35.660 something happens

01:27:36.400 you're only going

01:27:36.840 to come out of

01:27:37.220 pocket $10,000 or

01:27:37.800 $20,000 max

01:27:39.400 everything else is

01:27:40.460 going to be covered

01:27:41.000 but it's not going

01:27:41.960 to cover anything

01:27:42.540 until you meet this

01:27:43.480 huge threshold well

01:27:45.100 people would buy that

01:27:46.040 possibly but then

01:27:47.700 you say to a couple

01:27:48.680 that's got a young

01:27:49.340 family or planning a

01:27:50.320 family now it's time

01:27:51.520 to get better

01:27:51.960 insurance what if

01:27:53.180 you know you're

01:27:54.960 going to need

01:27:55.220 maternity coverage

01:27:56.200 I mean it makes

01:27:57.800 common sense but you

01:27:58.900 also have to deregulate

01:28:00.300 and invite the insurance

01:28:01.480 carriers in and mass

01:28:03.000 so when the

01:28:03.820 president the former

01:28:04.660 president promised if

01:28:05.600 you like your doctor

01:28:06.340 you can keep your

01:28:06.940 doctor that was a lie

01:28:08.140 if you like your

01:28:09.020 insurance plan you can

01:28:09.880 keep your insurance

01:28:10.500 plan that was a lie

01:28:11.660 if you didn't meet the

01:28:13.040 criteria you were told

01:28:14.460 that you were out of

01:28:15.140 compliance therefore you

01:28:16.520 had to get insurance

01:28:17.340 through the exchange

01:28:18.520 that's the problem with

01:28:20.840 Obamacare Rand Paul

01:28:22.480 says the Republicans

01:28:23.560 have to keep their

01:28:24.400 promise to repeal and

01:28:25.820 replace I agree with

01:28:27.000 him 100% with this

01:28:31.060 company Anthem leaving

01:28:32.400 Ohio dropping out of

01:28:34.620 the exchanges 18

01:28:36.040 counties no insurance

01:28:38.140 no carriers that is not

01:28:40.880 how this plan was billed

01:28:42.340 to the American people

01:28:43.300 if the Republicans fail

01:28:45.180 to do this not only will

01:28:47.580 they lose the majority

01:28:49.200 in the House and the

01:28:50.100 Senate they deserve to

01:28:51.680 lose the majority in the

01:28:52.740 House and Senate you made

01:28:54.220 promises of repeal and

01:28:55.800 replace you have got to

01:28:57.520 have the guts to do the

01:28:59.740 hard work to repeal it

01:29:01.260 first and tell the

01:29:03.320 American people what I

01:29:04.220 just said if I can

01:29:05.500 explain it that way to

01:29:06.500 people and they all nod

01:29:07.780 their heads and say

01:29:08.460 you're right that makes

01:29:09.380 sense you can do it too

01:29:11.100 but then you have to have

01:29:12.640 the courage to sit down

01:29:14.080 and figure out a way to

01:29:16.000 have the American people

01:29:17.040 have access to

01:29:18.000 affordable health care

01:29:18.900 maybe it's not government

01:29:20.160 mandated maybe it's not

01:29:21.440 a government exchange but

01:29:22.720 it's something that allows

01:29:23.860 the insurance carriers to

01:29:25.420 work in all 50 states

01:29:26.640 where they don't have

01:29:27.440 three or four in a state

01:29:28.580 that is fighting over this

01:29:29.820 and then suffering the

01:29:31.280 consequences for not

01:29:32.280 having the shared risk of

01:29:33.340 pre-existing conditions

01:29:34.400 and it doesn't it's not

01:29:37.780 rocket science but it does

01:29:39.440 take courage because you

01:29:40.800 have these people screaming

01:29:42.120 save our health care and

01:29:43.840 doing die-ins inside

01:29:45.160 people's offices they did

01:29:46.620 that in Arizona they went

01:29:47.920 to the senator's offices and

01:29:49.140 did a die-in in the lobby

01:29:50.260 well no one pays attention to

01:29:51.640 those people if you're

01:29:52.880 gonna go lay on the floor

01:29:53.820 somewhere as an adult and

01:29:54.980 kick your feet people are

01:29:56.020 gonna laugh at you as they

01:29:57.000 step over you they don't

01:29:57.940 care you've got to have the

01:29:59.900 courage to do the right

01:30:00.840 thing you make the

01:30:01.500 campaign promises if you

01:30:02.940 don't follow through the

01:30:04.500 American people will elect

01:30:05.700 somebody else it's going to

01:30:07.600 happen so I agree with

01:30:09.600 Rand Paul that it needs to

01:30:10.840 be repealed not fixed

01:30:13.400 because it can't be fixed

01:30:15.500 the way this legislation was

01:30:17.800 written and the other thing

01:30:19.020 is the pushback I wish

01:30:20.900 somebody for all I mean I

01:30:22.700 am a registered Republican

01:30:23.900 and I'm gonna stay that

01:30:24.940 way I'm not going

01:30:25.820 independent I would rather

01:30:27.260 be a Puritan I would

01:30:28.400 rather stay and fix it from

01:30:30.220 within somebody reach out to

01:30:32.800 someone that's that common

01:30:33.760 sense when it comes to

01:30:34.640 public relations and talk to

01:30:36.520 people about what's really

01:30:37.420 happening when someone says

01:30:38.880 save our health care turn

01:30:40.400 around to them with all

01:30:41.240 honesty and ask them what

01:30:42.700 health care what health care

01:30:44.320 do you have you're paying

01:30:46.480 fifteen twelve thousand

01:30:47.700 dollars a year for coverage

01:30:48.780 and you've got a fourteen

01:30:49.720 thousand dollar deductible

01:30:50.840 you're gonna spend twenty

01:30:51.960 six thousand dollars that

01:30:53.140 year before your health care

01:30:54.520 even kicks in is that

01:30:55.460 coverage that's what they

01:30:57.760 need to do all right coming

01:31:00.080 up just a few minutes Jeff

01:31:01.500 Sessions offers his

01:31:02.380 resignation and we'll talk

01:31:03.600 more about Christopher Wray the

01:31:04.680 new FBI nominee

01:31:05.880 you're listening to the Glenn

01:31:12.020 Beck program

01:31:12.880 mercury

01:31:18.780 this is the Glenn Beck program

01:31:20.740 okay Jeff Sessions offers his

01:31:24.400 resignation the Department of

01:31:25.620 Justice has no comment on

01:31:27.040 whether or not it's been

01:31:27.760 accepted or anything else we

01:31:29.980 don't know that we know that

01:31:30.900 Jeff Sessions what we're

01:31:32.300 hearing from the report now

01:31:33.940 Sean Spicer was asked if the

01:31:35.760 president has confidence in

01:31:37.100 Jeff Sessions Spicer says I

01:31:38.680 don't know the answer to that

01:31:40.120 so what's coming and why would

01:31:42.580 the rift with the Department of

01:31:43.820 Justice what's interesting is

01:31:45.840 now the nominee Christopher Wray

01:31:47.380 who the president again said

01:31:49.280 is now this is a lawyer

01:31:50.400 Christopher Wray was it was an

01:31:51.780 assistant attorney general he

01:31:53.360 defended I believe it was

01:31:54.680 Christie but he was part of

01:31:55.660 the Bridgegate the legal team

01:31:57.320 in Bridgegate in New Jersey he's

01:31:59.760 a partner in a law firm right

01:32:01.360 now and Christopher Wray is he

01:32:03.840 said I will nominate I will be

01:32:05.240 nominating Christopher Wray a

01:32:06.760 man of impeccable credentials to

01:32:08.480 be the new director of the FBI

01:32:10.020 details to follow interesting to

01:32:12.680 note that Christopher Wray will

01:32:14.120 also be testifying tomorrow at a

01:32:17.120 hearing where James Comey will

01:32:18.700 testify and so I want to I would

01:32:21.960 love to hear and I'm sure you're

01:32:23.320 going to I'm going to make a

01:32:24.100 prediction to you because this

01:32:25.820 announcement only just came out

01:32:27.420 just a few hours ago so it's

01:32:29.800 still fairly new and I haven't had

01:32:31.620 a chance to go back and look at

01:32:32.840 what anybody else has said about

01:32:34.000 this topic yet but I guarantee you

01:32:36.360 that there's going to be some kind

01:32:37.800 of Chris Christie Bridgegate

01:32:39.240 connection made here some kind of

01:32:41.520 a conspiracy theory as a payback or

01:32:43.640 a something done for a friend they

01:32:45.820 will start to now damage the

01:32:47.100 reputation of a guy that probably

01:32:48.580 doesn't have his deserve to have

01:32:49.920 his reputation damaged they will go

01:32:51.860 after him much like they did our

01:32:54.720 most recent Supreme Court justice in

01:32:57.380 saying things about their his

01:32:58.880 character and him being an extremist

01:33:01.420 and him being outside of the

01:33:03.260 mainstream which is absolutely

01:33:05.500 positively 100 percent false that we

01:33:09.940 know that when it came time for him to

01:33:12.240 make decisions on the appeals court he

01:33:13.780 was only overturned once a couple of

01:33:17.060 thousand cases he was in the majority

01:33:19.000 over 90 percent of the time so no way

01:33:21.580 he's outside of the mainstream but of

01:33:23.080 course because of the political

01:33:25.200 atmosphere the political climate we

01:33:27.040 live in right now anybody nominated by

01:33:29.500 this president is going to be deemed an

01:33:31.100 extremist which is it really puts me in

01:33:33.800 a bad spot because when I compliment or

01:33:36.780 defend something the president does I'm

01:33:39.860 labeled one of those extremists when I'm

01:33:42.620 critical of something the president says

01:33:44.500 or does I'm labeled a traitor by the

01:33:47.520 die-hard Trump supporters I'm neither I

01:33:51.520 have common sense and I disagreed with

01:33:54.320 things that George W Bush did and I loved

01:33:57.280 George W Bush I was on the stump for GW in

01:34:01.000 04 I have met him on a number of

01:34:04.520 occasions I know he is a very good man the

01:34:09.620 the way he reached out to my family the

01:34:12.520 conversations I had with my brother's

01:34:14.320 service and sacrifice the fact that he

01:34:16.020 was just in Dallas I think yesterday with

01:34:18.960 Paul Ryan or the day before with wounded

01:34:21.660 warriors the how he has dedicated himself

01:34:24.020 to them and how well received he was as

01:34:27.000 commander-in-chief whenever he traveled to

01:34:28.780 visit the military I have the utmost

01:34:31.240 respect and admiration for George W Bush

01:34:33.940 personally but I was disappointed as

01:34:37.540 others were about things that happened and

01:34:40.380 that's a part of how we operate if you

01:34:43.520 were to have an honest conversation with

01:34:45.180 George W he would tell you about people

01:34:47.340 he admired that he had he disagreed or was

01:34:49.540 disappointed in but to now watch what's

01:34:54.500 happening where if you're a nominee or

01:34:57.180 associated with this president you are

01:34:59.320 labeled and then demonized it's not just

01:35:03.100 that you're wrong you're evil it's not just

01:35:05.500 that the new health care plan by the

01:35:07.700 Republicans is not right it's that people

01:35:12.580 are going to die that's always the

01:35:15.580 argument it's these extremes that we go

01:35:17.680 to all the time so Jeff Sessions is he

01:35:20.840 going to end up leaving that position as

01:35:23.200 attorney general I don't know I don't know

01:35:26.300 why the president would not have confidence

01:35:28.180 in him I is it because of the Russia

01:35:31.100 investigation that he needed to recuse

01:35:32.760 himself I don't know the answer to that

01:35:34.680 either but for the conspiracy theorist on

01:35:36.680 the other side that would say it had

01:35:37.700 something to do with the Russia

01:35:38.620 conversation how could that be why would

01:35:41.500 you want to kick the guy out of there

01:35:44.960 something else I hadn't touched on this

01:35:47.340 morning and I wish I had more

01:35:49.760 information I'm trying to find some

01:35:51.040 information on this is I was just

01:35:53.120 reminded from somebody that that wrote a

01:35:56.320 piece about my interview with Jay Dobbins

01:35:58.260 yesterday there is the investigation

01:36:00.780 today in Operation Fast and Furious

01:36:03.400 there's another promise that the

01:36:05.220 president can keep that the American

01:36:07.320 people would largely be on board with

01:36:09.160 there was an executive order issued an

01:36:11.420 executive privilege and executive order

01:36:12.980 issued by President Obama that covered up

01:36:15.640 a lot of the documents from being

01:36:18.600 investigated by Congress by the committee

01:36:21.060 that was trying to find out what

01:36:22.720 happened in Operation Fast and Furious

01:36:24.440 Operation Fast and Furious should have been

01:36:27.240 one of the biggest black marks on the

01:36:29.700 American law enforcement community not the

01:36:32.500 agents in the field in Arizona with

01:36:34.320 Arizona alcohol tobacco and firearms with

01:36:36.880 leadership out of that office they set in

01:36:40.340 motion a plan to allow a couple of

01:36:43.260 thousand rifles to head into Mexico now

01:36:46.320 you don't do that as the head of the ATF by

01:36:48.600 yourself you get the okay from the US

01:36:52.380 attorney for the state of Arizona and you

01:36:55.500 go to the US attorney because you know how

01:36:56.740 the the the attorney's office is

01:36:58.500 prosecutor's office works with investigators

01:37:00.640 is a prosecutor says if you want me to

01:37:02.880 arrest this person I need you to get me

01:37:05.040 this evidence not make it up but we need

01:37:07.260 to have evidence to arrest and convict this

01:37:09.700 person this is what I need for a conviction

01:37:11.880 so they work hand in hand there's no way that

01:37:15.880 the directors of the ATF decided they were

01:37:17.900 going to make this operation work with

01:37:19.480 over 2,000 rifles without the input from the

01:37:22.820 US attorney's office there's no way the US

01:37:25.580 attorney's office in Arizona says sure allow

01:37:29.200 a couple of thousand guns to cross the

01:37:31.500 border because what they were saying the

01:37:33.380 problem with that whole ordeal was that

01:37:37.580 people would go to the border with a truckload

01:37:40.040 of guns or grenades or whatever and in one

01:37:42.040 case it was grenades as well and they would

01:37:44.540 get right to the border they'd be pulled over by

01:37:46.980 the American authorities the authorities would

01:37:49.740 pull them over and arrest them for smuggling

01:37:52.660 guns into Mexico well they hadn't done that

01:37:54.500 yet so what they would say is you know I'm

01:37:57.140 so glad you stopped me I had just changed my

01:37:59.500 mind I wasn't gonna do it I couldn't possibly

01:38:01.680 go through with it how can you prove it

01:38:04.100 otherwise so they had the brilliant idea of

01:38:07.640 let's let the guns cross the border no way that

01:38:11.260 happens without a conversation between the US

01:38:13.480 attorney and the Department of Justice it

01:38:17.180 doesn't happen and yet the executive order that

01:38:20.320 was issued to cover up and it did cover up

01:38:22.820 then and now no one's being held accountable

01:38:25.200 for the death of Border Patrol agent Brian

01:38:27.020 Terry Jason Chaffetz is holding a hearing

01:38:29.220 today in his committee and looking into the

01:38:31.660 death of Brian Terry asking the White House

01:38:34.300 and we're hoping that they are going to ask

01:38:36.260 the White House to keep their promise and

01:38:39.300 unseal those documents unseal those files let

01:38:43.200 Chaffetz and the rest of the investigators see

01:38:45.040 exactly what happened and I hope that the

01:38:47.340 president does that the American people

01:38:49.400 deserve the truth but so does the Terry

01:38:51.180 family so do the families of so many other

01:38:53.540 people that have been killed at the hands of

01:38:56.180 fast and furious guns both in America in

01:38:58.560 Mexico and abroad there was even a report

01:39:01.360 and I don't know if it was it was I know it

01:39:03.420 was confirmed I mean it was said to be true

01:39:05.180 but I don't know if it was ever later retracted

01:39:07.580 that one of those fast and furious rifles

01:39:09.400 ended up in the Paris attacks you're talking

01:39:12.320 about a couple of thousand rifles being put

01:39:14.600 into the hands of the wrong people

01:39:15.840 so the Department of Justice has a lot of

01:39:20.420 answering to do and the Department of Justice

01:39:22.040 has a lot of investigating to do is Jeff

01:39:24.280 Sessions the person that the president

01:39:26.240 trusts to carry on that job the president

01:39:28.540 has the ability to hire and fire who he

01:39:31.840 wants why would Jeff Sessions offer his

01:39:34.020 resignation and why no word from the White

01:39:36.380 House whether or not they even entertain the

01:39:38.380 idea of him resigning the post only six

01:39:40.660 months into it is this part of the chaos

01:39:42.820 that the media wants to say is in this

01:39:44.680 administration that Jeff Sessions is

01:39:46.620 leaving Michael Flynn was booted out and

01:39:48.620 or is it just some kind of a conflict when

01:39:52.680 it comes to how those offices believe they

01:39:54.600 should be interacting and what they should

01:39:56.360 be doing before I close out the show

01:40:00.180 today this I don't know why this made me

01:40:03.340 laugh but I I saw a story this morning Kim

01:40:07.180 Kardashian you know well-known gun rights

01:40:10.680 activist and expert in the field wrote a

01:40:14.040 letter calling for more gun control and

01:40:17.340 when I first saw the headline I thought so

01:40:20.100 I mean Kim Kardashian calling for gun

01:40:22.400 control that's like me writing a topic on

01:40:24.920 fashion it just doesn't make any sense and

01:40:28.080 Kim Kardashian though is calling for this

01:40:31.500 while acknowledging that her security team

01:40:34.240 is well-armed so I think it's great that

01:40:36.740 somebody has enough money to travel with

01:40:38.660 armed security is going to dictate to the

01:40:41.060 rest of the country that it should be more

01:40:42.620 difficult for you to get a firearm so I

01:40:44.660 just thought it'd be a funny story to talk

01:40:46.000 about kind of dovetail what we talked about

01:40:48.140 earlier yesterday when it comes to the mass

01:40:50.600 shooting in Orlando Florida or any of these

01:40:52.400 other shootings around America we'll talk

01:40:54.340 about that and a few other things before we

01:40:55.660 close it out again if you're a social media

01:40:57.860 user you can always reach me at broomhead show

01:41:00.620 on Twitter I enjoy the interaction that's

01:41:02.540 where you can find me my name is Mike

01:41:03.860 Broomhead and this is the Glenn Beck

01:41:05.000 program I'll be back

01:41:06.400 the Glenn Beck program mercury

01:41:13.540 the Glenn Beck program all right before we

01:41:21.140 close it out some some great tweets

01:41:22.820 again at broomhead show on Twitter if you

01:41:24.860 want to follow up with me in the next in

01:41:26.200 the next few days today's my last day in

01:41:27.780 for Glenn but you can always reach me I

01:41:29.280 maintain my own my own accounts at chef

01:41:33.220 Murph tweeted back to me about health

01:41:35.680 care my annual medical for a family of

01:41:38.120 four at Blue Cross went to twenty eight

01:41:40.440 thousand dollars a year more than double

01:41:43.880 my mortgage thanks affordable care act

01:41:46.700 there you have it that's what the

01:41:48.080 exchanges are doing to people it's just

01:41:51.100 an acknowledgement of the failure we just

01:41:53.040 need to acknowledge the failure and let's

01:41:54.980 find a way to fix it again why does it got

01:41:56.760 to be partisan politics why can't we say

01:41:58.960 the president the former president was

01:42:01.060 trying to do the right thing but it was

01:42:02.620 a failure and he didn't listen to sound

01:42:04.600 advice why can't we say it they won't

01:42:07.000 the political left will not let go of

01:42:08.980 this and the worst part about it is

01:42:10.600 whenever the media wants to talk to

01:42:12.760 somebody about the Republicans health

01:42:14.140 care plan who do they go to Nancy

01:42:16.640 Pelosi the one person who is

01:42:19.640 responsible for hammering that bill

01:42:22.840 through the house shouldn't she be the

01:42:25.440 one person that everybody tells to shut

01:42:27.900 up on this topic if you're the one that

01:42:30.840 gave us what is falling apart why would

01:42:33.800 we come to you as the expert against the

01:42:36.180 people that are trying to fix it and no

01:42:38.920 one's telling her to be quiet on this

01:42:41.400 issue before we close out the hour though

01:42:44.180 Kim Kardashian yesterday a day before

01:42:47.260 yesterday we talked about the Orlando

01:42:48.600 shooting then the day after the Orlando

01:42:50.900 shooting when it came out that it wasn't

01:42:52.380 a terrorist attack that it was a

01:42:53.580 disgruntled employee a former member of

01:42:55.240 the military had been arrested on some

01:42:56.960 misdemeanor charges and had had a fist

01:42:59.340 fight with a co-worker was fired from

01:43:01.340 his job returned to his old place of

01:43:03.620 business shot five people dead then turn

01:43:06.720 the gun on himself and of course what

01:43:09.260 happened the gun control people came out

01:43:11.960 of the woodwork like they always do well

01:43:14.720 here you go Kim Kardashian despite

01:43:19.240 admitting that her entire security team

01:43:21.220 is armed reality television personality

01:43:23.380 Kim Kardashian called for stricter gun

01:43:25.820 control so here's the comment that I

01:43:29.300 loved yesterday I told you there is

01:43:31.440 nothing more insulting than saying that

01:43:33.640 people that are defenders of the second

01:43:35.520 amendment care more about guns than they

01:43:38.060 do people leave it to Kim Kardashian

01:43:40.340 it's more important to protect the second

01:43:42.100 amendment than to protect our own

01:43:43.920 children no the second amendment protects

01:43:47.580 them too Kardashian went on to explain

01:43:50.840 that better gun control looks like this

01:43:53.060 to her I believe that we should restrict

01:43:55.860 access to firearms for people with mental

01:43:57.860 illness always happens already anyone

01:44:00.480 previously convicted of a misdemeanor so

01:44:02.980 if you're convicted of trespassing they

01:44:05.240 should take your gun away I'm just I'm

01:44:08.520 asking if you get convicted of a

01:44:11.900 misdemeanor the government should be able

01:44:14.120 to take your firearm those who have been

01:44:18.620 subject to a temporary restraining order

01:44:21.320 and those at a higher risk of committing

01:44:23.560 gun violence there are already laws that

01:44:27.380 do that we have laws against felons

01:44:30.500 possessing guns how many times have

01:44:32.820 murders been carried out by a felon with

01:44:35.420 a handgun or a rifle how many well

01:44:38.640 shocking that the very same people that

01:44:40.560 don't care about the laws against murder

01:44:42.700 don't care about the laws against

01:44:44.760 carrying a gun either

01:44:45.780 it's a ludicrous premise

01:44:50.140 but the fact that Kim Kardashian pens the

01:44:54.040 letter and anyone pays attention to it

01:44:56.320 shows you that this is about popularity

01:44:59.980 not about policy and not about what makes

01:45:03.120 common sense anybody like myself that

01:45:06.580 says I am an adamant defender of the

01:45:08.400 second amendment you are labeled some kind

01:45:11.200 of an extremist well there's your

01:45:13.300 extremist here is a woman that is

01:45:15.760 surrounded by 24 hour a day armed

01:45:18.980 protection why because she's a target

01:45:23.200 she is a target as a celebrity so what

01:45:28.120 do you do to protect yourself you put

01:45:30.040 armed people around you well you know

01:45:32.380 what I don't have the luxury of

01:45:33.800 surrounding myself by armed people it's

01:45:38.220 it's such a hypocritical premise that

01:45:40.880 somebody wouldn't say to her get rid of

01:45:43.020 your armed guards then if you don't think

01:45:45.180 people should have guns she thinks it's

01:45:47.020 ridiculous that she would go out unprotected

01:45:49.440 it's it's absolutely it really is

01:45:53.620 absolutely a joke before I close it out

01:45:58.360 today I want to thank I want to thank some

01:46:01.340 people that made it really made it easy for

01:46:04.100 me this week but I got a great email from

01:46:06.520 someone if I can find it there was a guy

01:46:08.660 that emailed me that served with my

01:46:10.100 brother and it's one of the cool things I

01:46:12.280 get to do in this show is to talk about

01:46:13.900 the men and women that served our country

01:46:15.340 and for the people that served that have

01:46:18.720 reached out to me that served when my

01:46:20.000 brother served and were there when he was

01:46:21.840 killed it really is it really is an honor to

01:46:25.940 be a spokesman for the military and for

01:46:28.500 veterans and it really is the it is my

01:46:30.660 favorite part of my job my youngest

01:46:32.900 brother is a police officer and so my

01:46:34.980 respect for law enforcement also comes

01:46:36.740 from my family because of all the people

01:46:38.740 in the world that I know my surviving

01:46:41.180 brother is my hero my brother Brian is my

01:46:43.980 hero and so the men and women that put on

01:46:46.240 a uniform whether it's to defend us

01:46:47.920 internationally or it's the one to defend

01:46:49.800 us in our community my hearts my prayers
