The Glenn Beck Program - 7⧸10⧸17 - ISIS on the run, but...

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

00:00:07.940 Hello, America, and welcome to Monday.

00:00:11.440 A lot of interesting stuff.

00:00:13.820 There's a couple of pieces of good news.

00:00:16.540 ISIS is collapsing, and the caliphate is almost completely annihilated.

00:00:23.740 We'll give you that news and what it means,

00:00:26.220 because I met with the boys this morning before we went on the air explaining what it means,

00:00:32.360 and they were like, oh, how come nobody's saying that?

00:00:36.540 I don't know, but we'll tell you what it means coming up in a minute.

00:00:39.440 Also, really good news about Charlie Gard.

00:00:42.940 He's going back to court, new evidence, and things are starting to pick up steam.

00:00:49.320 And here in America, there are two congressmen, Brad Wenstrup from Ohio

00:00:55.460 and Trent Franks from Arizona, that are moving in Congress

00:01:00.860 to try to get him and his family permanent citizenship here in the United States

00:01:06.080 so he can leave England and come to the United States 0.69

00:01:10.640 and get the treatment for that 11-month-old.

00:01:13.840 Also, Radiohead is in the news.

00:01:17.660 The Democrats in California are full-fledged in a civil war between themselves.

00:01:23.460 And Donald Trump and Russia.

00:01:26.400 We begin right now.

00:01:28.560 I will make a stand.

00:01:31.900 I will raise my voice.

00:01:34.180 I will hold your hand.

00:01:36.560 Because we are one.

00:01:38.460 I will beat my drum.

00:01:40.640 I have made my choice.

00:01:42.660 We will overcome.

00:01:45.180 Because we are one.

00:01:47.160 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:51.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:56.880 So I love this.

00:01:58.120 I mean, if you ever, your alarm went off this morning

00:02:00.880 and you thought, I hate that sound.

00:02:04.540 And you've had a tough morning.

00:02:06.400 Let me start with this.

00:02:08.720 You're never going to complain about your alarm again.

00:02:11.160 A guy who's only identified now as Dylan.

00:02:15.260 He's a teenager.

00:02:16.560 He was out at a wilderness camp.

00:02:20.840 He was in Colorado.

00:02:22.960 He was sleeping outside of the tent in his sleeping bag

00:02:28.300 when he was awakened to a crunching sound.

00:02:32.140 As his eyes opened up, he realized that his head was inside the mouth of a bear.

00:02:43.340 The crunching sound was his skull.

00:02:45.560 Yeah.

00:02:45.820 As the teeth were coming down on the skull and scraping against his skull.

00:02:51.200 That's what he heard.

00:02:52.400 And the bear was pulling him out of the sleeping bag

00:02:56.780 and dragging him by his head into the woods to eat him. 0.69

00:03:01.800 That doesn't sound like a good way to win.

00:03:03.060 That's not a good Monday morning way to win.

00:03:04.560 No.

00:03:04.620 So you can complain all you want about your alarm clock.

00:03:07.600 I thought I was pissed when my alarm went off at four.

00:03:10.100 I hate that thing.

00:03:11.300 Yeah.

00:03:11.580 Still, it's not a bear pulling him out of the bed by my skull.

00:03:13.420 No.

00:03:13.460 Not really a problem at all.

00:03:15.360 No.

00:03:16.180 So anyway, so Dylan started screaming.

00:03:19.140 He punched the bear in the throat a few times.

00:03:24.700 Everybody started coming out and punching the bear.

00:03:29.580 The bear let Dylan go and ran off into the woods.

00:03:33.440 They're looking for the bear now.

00:03:35.360 Black bears are not usually like that.

00:03:37.440 When food is involved, they'll get scrappy, if you will.

00:03:44.080 Or if you are going after one of their cubs, but usually they don't reach in.

00:03:49.900 They don't seek out humans to eat them.

00:03:51.200 Yeah.

00:03:51.620 They don't usually put your head in their mouth. 0.94

00:03:54.220 So they're going out because they need to kill this bear. 0.92

00:03:57.780 Oh, my gosh. 0.89

00:03:58.740 Oh, my gosh.

00:04:00.160 White privilege. 0.99

00:04:01.340 I bet Dylan's white and that's a black bear. 0.99

00:04:04.100 Oh, the racism never stops. 1.00

00:04:05.240 You notice we always try to protect the polar bears, but we go shoot the black bears. 0.99

00:04:09.340 Anyone notice that?

00:04:10.080 Yeah.

00:04:11.220 You got a problem with that?

00:04:12.480 It's called racism, guys.

00:04:13.660 So let's talk. 0.98

00:04:16.580 White bears, black bears.

00:04:18.100 Again, it's not that hard.

00:04:22.000 Let's talk about ISIS. 0.52

00:04:24.360 Here's the good news.

00:04:25.700 And I could just stop at good news if you'd like.

00:04:28.820 It looks as though we have now defeated ISIS.

00:04:32.340 It looks as though we are now.

00:04:35.460 Yeah, that we are.

00:04:37.560 We have cut them off and they are in full fledged retreat and they are dispersing.

00:04:45.120 Now, the Russians say that al-Baghdadi has been killed.

00:04:48.340 He hasn't been seen since the last time he was at a mosque and made his caliphate speech in 2014.

00:04:54.980 Very paranoid guy.

00:04:56.660 You know, you might you might want to use that as a safety tip.

00:05:00.880 You're the leader of the new caliphate. 0.90

00:05:03.820 Hide.

00:05:05.340 But the Russians say that he is absolutely dead.

00:05:08.160 We don't have confirmation of that.

00:05:10.060 But they are in full retreat now.

00:05:14.120 And that's the good news.

00:05:16.660 Now, you have a choice right now.

00:05:18.220 You can leave it at the good news because it is Monday.

00:05:21.060 It's not that's just not just good news.

00:05:22.960 That's really.

00:05:23.840 That's right.

00:05:24.740 Huge news.

00:05:25.480 Right.

00:05:25.620 Oh, yes.

00:05:27.420 Right.

00:05:28.400 Because.

00:05:29.480 Yes.

00:05:30.480 Because that was a short explanation of a pretty big thing.

00:05:33.660 I leave it right there.

00:05:35.460 And I'm going to say that's good news.

00:05:38.140 Of course, it's good news.

00:05:39.420 Yes.

00:05:40.900 Yes.

00:05:41.760 I mean, here we are in this struggle against.

00:05:43.680 I mean, you talked about the caliphate how many years ago?

00:05:45.800 Yes.

00:05:46.560 They drove him out of Mosul.

00:05:48.820 They're in obvious retreat at this point.

00:05:51.640 And don't ask why they're blowing up all the mosques. 0.80

00:05:56.280 Why are they blowing up?

00:05:57.280 No, I just said don't ask that.

00:05:58.880 I said don't ask that.

00:06:00.700 Don't ask that.

00:06:01.800 I misunderstood.

00:06:02.680 Yeah.

00:06:02.820 So now he's asked.

00:06:04.280 So I have to answer.

00:06:06.420 They're blowing up all of the mosques. 0.99

00:06:08.180 In fact, they just blew up the, you know, the grand, you know, Mufti Lodge or whatever it is.

00:06:13.700 The one that's on the money over in Iraq.

00:06:17.500 They just blew that up with the minarets and everything.

00:06:19.940 And the reason they're doing that is because they don't want any Shias using the mosques. 1.00

00:06:30.980 Don't ask who the Shias might be. 1.00

00:06:35.740 Who might be the Shias? 1.00

00:06:36.720 No, Pat.

00:06:38.140 Dang it.

00:06:38.820 Ask you again.

00:06:40.340 Not to.

00:06:41.100 So the Shias, I have to answer you now, Pat. 1.00

00:06:44.760 The Shias are coming in from the Iranian guard that are now pushing across Iraq and are. 1.00

00:06:55.920 This is the same Iranian Republican guard that was going to give us the mother of all battles, right? 0.96

00:07:00.800 Right.

00:07:01.420 Yeah.

00:07:01.860 We're still in the whole good news segment.

00:07:04.660 No, we we slipped through that.

00:07:06.420 Anyway, so here's so let me just explain.

00:07:10.380 And I'm not sure it's the Republican guard, but it is the the Iranian Shia militias that have swept across. 0.96

00:07:18.600 I've been talking about it on TV for a couple of weeks.

00:07:20.520 I'm not sure if I mentioned this on radio or not, but they've swept across Iraq and they are actually on a battlefront in southern as southwestern.

00:07:30.420 Western, no, southeastern Syria, and they have been trying to fight the the ISIS troops as well as us and the the the Kurds, the Syrian Kurds that we have armed as terrorists.

00:07:55.860 Um, we've been all fighting Russia, Syria, and the Iranians. 0.97

00:08:04.420 The Iranians want a collapse of Syria as well, because what they're trying to do is they're trying to establish their caliphate across Iraq into Syria up to Turkey. 0.98

00:08:19.260 Turkey doesn't want that to happen.

00:08:23.460 Well, we've been arming the people who are on the border of Turkey, who are terrorists, who also want to destabilize Turkey and now Syria.

00:08:32.920 They've been fighting against ISIS as well.

00:08:36.940 Now that ISIS has retreated.

00:08:41.440 And they are leaving.

00:08:44.160 We have to make a choice.

00:08:46.040 Are we continuing to arm the people who are going to attack Turkey, a ally? 0.87

00:08:56.680 You used air quotes there, even though this is radio.

00:08:59.140 Yes, I know.

00:09:00.240 I think you could hear the ally.

00:09:05.460 Are we going to continue to help them, fund them, give them guns as they now turn against Turkey?

00:09:12.820 Or do we cut them off?

00:09:16.760 And do we now bomb instead of ISIS? 0.99

00:09:21.140 Do we now fight the Iranian Shia militia?

00:09:26.200 If we do, isn't that a direct war with Iran and not a proxy war?

00:09:33.940 Who are we going to be dropping bombs on now?

00:09:38.040 Syria? 0.58

00:09:39.360 Russians? 0.84

00:09:40.840 Iranians? 0.94

00:09:42.440 Turkey? 0.99

00:09:43.480 Such a mess.

00:09:44.640 Or our supposed allies that are fighting against Turkey?

00:09:48.680 Absolute mess.

00:09:49.820 It's a total disaster.

00:09:52.380 Now here's why the collapse of ISIS is not really...

00:09:56.660 I mean, we thought the Bosnian situation was complex with all the different factions.

00:10:01.380 And nobody in America knew who the good guy was and who the bad guy.

00:10:04.620 Because we were bombing Christians and helping the Muslims. 1.00

00:10:08.140 Was that the right thing? 0.62

00:10:09.140 I don't know.

00:10:10.620 And now it's even more convoluted than that.

00:10:13.560 It's really not.

00:10:14.820 It's just that nobody will speak it.

00:10:16.280 There are only two groups, I believe, that are good in this whole area.

00:10:22.300 One, the Christians, who are under attack clearly.

00:10:30.460 The second are the Iraqi Kurds. 0.67

00:10:34.520 They're also very, very good.

00:10:37.060 Both those groups are very pro-American, pro-freedom, pro-live-together.

00:10:44.700 And they're also, many of them, are pro-Muslim, as long as you're not trying to kill everybody else that doesn't agree with you.

00:10:54.820 But the Iraqi Kurds are not involved in Syria, right?

00:10:58.040 They don't have anything to do with that.

00:10:59.920 No.

00:11:01.040 No.

00:11:01.440 They've been fighting ISIS.

00:11:02.400 So, as far as Syria goes...

00:11:04.740 But when we were there just recently, when Mercury One was there recently, the Iraqi Kurds were building these gigantic berms to the east. 1.00

00:11:17.720 And one of our guys said, what are you doing?

00:11:21.200 Isn't ISIS that way?

00:11:22.180 And they said, yes, Iran is that way.

00:11:24.100 And you guys better pay attention, because Iran is coming. 0.99

00:11:28.780 So they already knew.

00:11:30.140 So, Iran is trying to now take advantage of the situation and sweep across Iraq. 0.98

00:11:37.560 And this is why ISIS is now blowing up all of the mosques.

00:11:42.400 Because they don't want them desecrated by the Iranian Shias. 1.00

00:11:47.880 Nobody's really paying attention to the mosques being destroyed.

00:11:51.460 Why would you destroy mosques?

00:11:53.780 Ancient, important mosques.

00:11:55.380 Because they don't want them desecrated by the Shias from Iran. 1.00

00:12:00.180 That's how real this is getting.

00:12:01.860 Now, here's why it's so bad.

00:12:04.820 And so...

00:12:06.020 And not a good victory.

00:12:08.940 We haven't, as usual, we never have a plan for the peace.

00:12:13.840 Never.

00:12:14.940 So, here we have now defeated ISIS.

00:12:17.860 But they're going to go back and crawl back into their caves.

00:12:20.740 And go back into their communities and try to blend in.

00:12:23.280 While still having the funding, they'll become more dangerous overseas.

00:12:27.700 Beyond that, remember, what was the problem?

00:12:33.440 The problem that they had in Iraq is they had a lot of Muslims who didn't want to have a caliphate. 0.95

00:12:41.340 Just wanted to be left alone. 0.99

00:12:42.820 And so they had to kill a lot of Muslims. 0.99

00:12:47.100 Beyond that, after that was going on, the majority of Muslims just was like, you know, just leave it alone. 1.00

00:12:56.420 And wouldn't take a side, but just played along. 0.99

00:12:59.240 Now that the Shias are coming in, the Iranian Shias are killing all Muslims who are Sunni. 1.00

00:13:08.800 So, who's going to defend them? 0.99

00:13:10.740 Would you say, then, that the Shia has hit the fan? 1.00

00:13:13.260 Yes, I could.

00:13:14.520 You just couldn't resist that.

00:13:20.900 I thought it was important.

00:13:23.520 So, here's the problem.

00:13:25.520 The Sunnis that were on the fence are now looking at ISIS, or will soon, and say, you know what? 0.94

00:13:33.640 At least they weren't killing me. 0.99

00:13:35.880 These guys are going to kill me. 0.98

00:13:37.580 I'm throwing my lot in with them. 1.00

00:13:40.680 And we'll see what happens.

00:13:41.860 So, to summarize, what you're saying is, it's great news.

00:13:45.320 We've, you know, liberated Mosul.

00:13:48.640 Yes.

00:13:49.200 Okay, yes!

00:13:50.560 Yes!

00:13:50.680 That's great news!

00:13:52.280 Good.

00:13:52.860 We're going to leave it at that.

00:13:53.980 Yeah.

00:13:54.720 Sorry, I mean, I know nobody wants that on a Monday.

00:13:57.840 We do have other things that are good and uplifting and some real progress.

00:14:03.640 We have some, you know, more confusion and questions on fake news.

00:14:08.860 And I have a look at why, how did we get here, where we don't believe in anything.

00:14:17.860 I am going to make a case that it all started with Big Brother.

00:14:24.340 Not the government.

00:14:27.680 The TV show.

00:14:29.800 And I'll get to that.

00:14:31.180 It's an interesting case.

00:14:32.760 I don't know if it's right.

00:14:34.520 But I thought about it this weekend.

00:14:36.520 I thought, take a look at how we got here.

00:14:41.220 And it's an interesting case.

00:14:42.260 We'll get to that in a little while.

00:14:43.600 First, our sponsor this half hour is Simply Safe.

00:14:45.620 If you have ever woken up in the middle of the night, usually it's your wife that says,

00:14:51.560 Did you hear that?

00:14:53.160 No, honey.

00:14:53.800 I was asleep.

00:14:55.900 I swear I heard something.

00:14:57.780 Honey, you didn't hear anything.

00:14:59.640 Yeah, get up.

00:15:00.700 Go look.

00:15:03.040 Take the gun.

00:15:04.640 Okay.

00:15:05.820 Then you're prowling around your house at night with a gun,

00:15:08.140 hoping that you don't shoot one of the kids who has just gotten up to sneak watching some TV 1.00

00:15:13.180 or something stupid like that. 1.00

00:15:15.740 Then you go back to bed and she's, 1.00

00:17:13.520 just trying to explain this is so confusing because you don't know who's what.

00:17:21.360 The Sunnis are different than the Sunnis in Iraq. 0.86

00:17:24.720 The Syrian Sunnis or the Iraqi Kurds are different than the Syrian Kurds.

00:17:33.680 The Sunnis and the Shias, the ISIS, the Iranian Shia guard coming in, Turkey. 0.97

00:17:44.800 Who's good?

00:17:45.340 Who's bad?

00:17:46.000 I don't know.

00:17:47.740 Just trying to keep them in line is so complex.

00:17:52.920 It's a reason why we shouldn't be involved.

00:17:57.680 We don't even understand it.

00:18:01.060 If the American people, it's like, you know, Warren Buffett said,

00:18:05.820 if you don't know what the company does, if you can't explain it, you shouldn't be invested in it.

00:18:12.760 We as a nation are invested in these wars, these companies.

00:18:18.040 We don't even know what they do.

00:18:20.220 We don't know who the good guys are and the bad guys are.

00:18:22.640 We don't know what, it's like opening up a store and saying,

00:18:25.660 yeah, well, we're successful.

00:18:29.300 One of these days we're going to be super successful.

00:18:33.240 What are you basing success on?

00:18:36.080 I don't know.

00:18:37.080 We'll just know it when we get there.

00:18:39.480 No, you won't.

00:18:41.460 We don't know what success looks like here.

00:18:46.360 We have a tremendous opportunity.

00:18:48.620 In a minute I'm going to tell you about how the Democrats are tearing themselves apart in California.

00:18:53.320 They're in full-fledged civil war because half of them are saying,

00:18:58.300 okay, now is the time.

00:18:59.980 We got to go full-fledged Marxist.

00:19:02.180 And I got news for you.

00:19:03.640 They're right.

00:19:04.460 If there ever has been a time to go full-fledged Marxist, it's right now.

00:19:09.120 Go Bernie Sanders.

00:19:10.940 But here's the good news.

00:19:14.060 That's splitting the Democrats in half in California.

00:19:18.880 Not Iowa.

00:19:20.440 In California.

00:19:21.600 Half of the Democrats are saying,

00:19:25.440 uh, no, no thank you.

00:19:27.480 No Marxism.

00:19:28.460 Thank you.

00:19:31.160 This is what I found in Hollywood, of all places, two weeks ago.

00:19:36.720 Having dinner, I had a guy sitting next to me who said,

00:19:40.620 and this is a pretty big guy,

00:19:43.740 he said two things that absolutely blew my mind.

00:19:48.880 And he wasn't talking to me.

00:19:50.740 He was talking to the room of liberals.

00:19:53.740 And he said,

00:19:54.740 guys,

00:19:55.900 we better wake up right now.

00:19:58.860 I'll show you what he said

00:20:01.020 and why it's such good news.

00:20:03.660 Next.

00:20:04.260 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:18.800 Mercury.

00:20:22.940 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:24.880 OK, so I want you to listen to this.

00:20:26.980 This is from Los Angeles.

00:20:28.620 Longstanding tensions between the Democratic Party's moderate and liberal wings have ignited in California,

00:20:36.040 where progressive activists are redirecting their anger over Donald Trump and congressional Republicans towards Democratic leaders at home.

00:20:43.780 Stoked by a contested race for state Democratic Party chair and the failure of a single payer health care bill.

00:20:51.420 Activists are staging protests at the Capitol.

00:20:54.600 Assembly Speaker Rendon reported leave receiving death threats after shelving the health care legislation last month.

00:21:01.620 And security was tightened at the statehouse after activists disrupted a floor session last week.

00:21:06.640 The rancor, a spillover from the contentious Democratic presidential primary last year,

00:21:12.040 is aggravating divisions in a state regarded nationally as a lodestar for the liberal cause.

00:21:19.000 Establishment Democrats fear the rhetoric and appetite for new spending could go too far,

00:21:25.760 jeopardizing the party's across-the-board dominance of state politics.

00:21:29.680 All of this has taken new significance on as California embraces its role as the focal point of the anti-Trump resistance.

00:21:39.200 They're now having to say, guys, guys, guys, we're on the same team.

00:21:44.540 But they're not.

00:21:46.360 Go back to the coming insurrection, the little blue book that when I first started Fox,

00:21:52.760 people couldn't imagine, what, why is Glenn Beck,

00:21:55.620 he's saying read this socialist revolution book from France.

00:21:58.820 Yes, because I said it would come here.

00:22:03.040 What was the point of that book?

00:22:04.880 Do you remember why they were revolting in France? 0.89

00:22:08.140 I mean, other than Frenchmen are revolting. 1.00

00:22:10.920 They were sick and tired of the promises not being fulfilled. 0.86

00:22:15.500 In what way?

00:22:16.260 They wanted communism.

00:22:18.200 Correct.

00:22:18.500 And they decided to go for it now rather than progressively.

00:22:21.940 And they kept saying, we have the opportunity right now.

00:22:26.280 We keep electing you guys and you keep saying, see if you've heard this phrase before,

00:22:31.500 the French version of, OK, we just need the House and the Senate.

00:22:35.840 OK, well, we need the White House, too.

00:22:38.040 But once we get the House and the Senate and the White House, then we'll be able to do something.

00:22:41.660 They're like, we've elected you guys over and over again.

00:22:44.120 And you've had the power and you won't do it.

00:22:47.000 You're never going to do it.

00:22:49.760 You're never going to do it because it's about you.

00:22:52.540 It's not about Marxism.

00:22:54.600 You're just using us.

00:22:57.020 Well, that's what's beginning to happen now.

00:22:59.160 Now, the Democrats have invited these people in.

00:23:03.900 And they're Marxist and they're revolutionaries and they want their system.

00:23:10.120 So they wanted a single payer system.

00:23:13.340 The real Democrats said, OK, no, I think that will bankrupt the state.

00:23:18.660 And the Marxist and the deep, deep progressives said, now is the time, if not now, when you kidding me?

00:23:28.980 We're more popular than ever because of Donald Trump.

00:23:31.760 We can stand against it and lead the way.

00:23:36.180 You people aren't going to do it.

00:23:38.040 That's why they've had to ratchet up security, because the sentiments that I pointed out eight years ago

00:23:45.280 in the coming insurrection and said, it's coming here, is now beginning in California.

00:23:53.560 OK, sounds like bad news, but here's the opportunity.

00:23:57.820 And I have witnessed it myself.

00:24:01.680 In fact, this weekend, I met two different people who said, Glenn, I'm reading this book called The Righteous Mind.

00:24:12.020 And I just smile.

00:24:13.340 Uh-huh.

00:24:13.720 This woman told me on Saturday, I'm reading this.

00:24:17.740 I had to get to you because I believe there's a way out.

00:24:22.300 And I said, really?

00:24:23.300 Well, I'm trying to work on that.

00:24:24.520 I'm interested in hearing anything you got.

00:24:26.060 She said, well, you have to read The Righteous Mind.

00:24:29.120 I said, Jonathan, hey, a height?

00:24:31.540 And she said, yes, you know it.

00:24:33.040 And I said, yeah, we're working on something based on that as well.

00:24:36.520 She said, I've seen it work in my own life.

00:24:39.840 She said, I had family members who I could not even talk to.

00:24:45.020 And I started using what he's pointing out.

00:24:49.600 And I changed what I was saying, how I was saying it.

00:24:52.920 And they're hearing me now.

00:24:56.000 Yes, I know.

00:24:58.340 I've seen it work myself.

00:25:00.660 And here's the opportunity.

00:25:01.720 Last week, two weeks ago, when I was in California, there is a huge change in people.

00:25:10.620 Huge change.

00:25:12.380 And it's not, the last time I was there was right after, or right, yeah, right after the

00:25:17.740 election.

00:25:18.080 And people were stunned, and they were afraid of Donald Trump and everything else.

00:25:25.520 So I go out, and I meet with, I'm going to have dinner with one guy who's a really nice

00:25:32.800 guy, but very, very liberal, was very Hillary Clinton, I believe.

00:25:38.480 And I let him know that I'm coming out.

00:25:41.320 And he said, Glenn, I want to introduce you to some friends.

00:25:44.680 They need to hear you speak.

00:25:46.200 And I said, OK, he said, anybody you want to meet with.

00:25:50.800 And I said, no, I just don't want to meet with anybody who has a jersey.

00:25:54.000 So if you're, you know, hi, the Democrats have to win, or that Donald Trump, we have to

00:26:00.680 do everything we can to get him out, or whatever, no team jerseys, open minds.

00:26:07.520 He said, OK, so about 20 people show up, 20, 25.

00:26:10.560 And there are amazing job titles and names.

00:26:17.320 I was shocked.

00:26:19.180 And all of them came in with a very open mind and, in some ways, afraid.

00:26:27.440 Some of them told me that they were more afraid of their side than even Donald Trump now. 0.61

00:26:35.400 They said, the Republicans are spooking the crap out of us, but what's happening on the 0.91

00:26:40.860 college campuses with the Uber left is frightening. 0.71

00:26:44.180 Point number one, their eyes are beginning to open.

00:26:52.320 Point number two, a guy sitting next to me, he said, I opened up with, look, we all have

00:27:04.920 to admit our mistakes, and we have to just say, I'm not trying to win.

00:27:10.700 I'm trying to find a way back towards any kind of normal conversations with people who disagree

00:27:18.760 with me, where I don't hate you and you don't hate me, and we have to stop each other, because

00:27:24.520 what does that lead?

00:27:26.840 Please play this out for me.

00:27:29.420 You guys win every election for the next 20 years.

00:27:33.640 You have every seat, and everything is democratic.

00:27:39.820 What are you going to do with the 40% of the population that just will not give up the

00:27:47.600 idea of a free market?

00:27:50.620 What are you going to do with them? 1.00

00:27:52.560 Kill them? 1.00

00:27:54.480 Silence them? 1.00

00:27:56.600 Because at first, you just have to try to silence them and get them to play along, but when they

00:28:00.640 don't after 20 years, what do you do?

00:28:02.280 And the same thing with the people who say you're the enemy.

00:28:06.100 We have to just, what are we going to do with you after 20 years of winning every single

00:28:09.620 election?

00:28:10.560 Because they're not going to give up.

00:28:12.300 Do we round you up?

00:28:13.480 Do we put you in indoctrination camps? 1.00

00:28:15.420 Or do we kill you? 1.00

00:28:18.200 Help figure this out. 1.00

00:28:20.580 We all came to the conclusion that there is no winning.

00:28:23.820 Just stop playing to win.

00:28:28.700 Let's start finding ways to live together.

00:28:31.660 So I say this.

00:28:38.120 The guy sitting next to me said, you know, we have to admit our own mistakes.

00:28:44.000 None of us here at this table, now this is a super liberal guy, none of us here sitting

00:28:48.940 at this table had a single problem with the way Barack Obama was signing executive orders.

00:28:57.580 None of us said anything.

00:28:59.240 It didn't bother us.

00:29:00.960 We didn't have a single problem the way they got health care done and just jammed it through.

00:29:05.740 None of us said anything but hurrah.

00:29:09.540 Now that Donald Trump is doing the same thing, we're all freaking out.

00:29:14.240 You know, maybe we should have had a problem with Barack Obama doing it.

00:29:21.780 And I'm like, don't say anything, don't say anything, don't say anything, don't wreck this.

00:29:26.540 He's on the right train, keep going.

00:29:30.060 He said, and another thing, every time the 10th Amendment is brought up, every single one of us in this room always say,

00:29:37.420 racists, states' rights, it's just about racism.

00:29:42.760 But gee, aren't we the same people right now saying we have to strengthen the 10th Amendment

00:29:47.840 and maybe we should secede from the Union?

00:29:50.320 Maybe it's not about racism.

00:29:54.160 Maybe there's something to these states' rights.

00:29:57.000 I am floored, floored with the nodding heads of, yeah, yeah.

00:30:05.580 Now they don't agree with me on policies, but the principles are starting to shine through.

00:30:12.660 So here's the opportunity in California.

00:30:17.440 There's a democratic civil war, the coming insurrection,

00:30:22.600 where people are shutting things down, you're going to have violence,

00:30:28.420 because that's what the left, the uber, uber, radicalized left, that's what they do. 0.99

00:30:36.480 So you've got that.

00:30:39.000 Then you have a whole bunch of people who are like, I'm not with them.

00:30:43.620 But I also, I'm not really with the GOP either,

00:30:47.620 because they're doing the same kind of tactics as I just realized my party was doing,

00:30:52.640 and I don't like that either.

00:30:55.100 That's where you come in.

00:30:56.480 And if you can speak their language, you can get enough to open up to where you say,

00:31:04.740 see, yes, you're right, the 10th Amendment.

00:31:08.020 For different reasons, we both believe in the 10th Amendment.

00:31:11.780 For different reasons, we both believe in the 4th and the 5th Amendment.

00:31:16.520 But see how important the Constitution is?

00:31:21.420 Because we have that opportunity.

00:31:25.660 And if you can only, if you could get, my gosh, 50% of the Democrats of California to turn,

00:31:33.200 not going to happen, Glenn.

00:31:34.940 Good.

00:31:35.600 I'll take 5%.

00:31:36.360 I'll take 5%.

00:31:37.020 I'll take 10%.

00:31:39.240 You can get 5% of the Democrats in California, I believe, right now,

00:31:47.640 if we start listening to each other, we start talking to one another,

00:31:54.140 and we know how to talk to one another.

00:31:57.460 And we stop trying to win, because they're on the wrong side.

00:32:03.140 Play that out in your mind.

00:32:04.640 How's that end?

00:32:06.380 Play that out in your mind.

00:32:07.920 How is it working out so far?

00:32:09.820 New tactic, and we'll be talking to you about it and teaching it in the coming weeks.

00:32:21.800 But I would highly recommend you start reading two books,

00:32:25.680 The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt, spelled H-A-I-G-H-T.

00:32:31.100 No, it's H-A-I-D-T. 1.00

00:32:33.560 What?

00:32:34.360 H-A-I-D-T. 1.00

00:32:35.740 Oh, you guys are reading the wrong book. 0.99

00:32:38.480 That would suck. 0.55

00:32:39.880 Yeah, so Jonathan Haidt. 0.94

00:32:42.940 So that one, and the other one is Tribal Leadership.

00:32:47.500 Now, Tribal Leadership is, does anybody know who that one's by?

00:32:51.560 Two guys, I think, right?

00:32:54.520 So you read that one, and that one is different.

00:32:58.060 That one is more about business.

00:32:59.780 It's an older book, a couple years old.

00:33:02.380 But it's more about business.

00:33:03.760 But if you read those two books, the Tribal Leadership, think of the company as our country

00:33:17.500 and see where the tribes are headed.

00:33:21.820 I contend that we are, and when you read this, you'll understand,

00:33:25.260 and you will put your hand to your mouth and go, oh, no.

00:33:27.500 I believe our country is between stage one and stage two.

00:33:34.140 And the Democrats, and some on the alt-right, are more stage one.

00:33:40.620 That's a dangerous place to go.

00:33:43.300 Stage two is almost a complete loss of hope and a just submission into whatever.

00:33:51.840 And I want a strong man to fix it, because we've tried everything else.

00:33:57.380 I think we're between stage one and stage two.

00:34:03.380 And there are those in our audience that are stage three, four, and five, which are our good.

00:34:10.060 But it will take those of us who are three, four, and five to be able to learn the language

00:34:15.480 of these first two stages, speak to them, couple that with the righteous mind,

00:34:21.940 and we can change the world.

00:34:24.400 We really can heal the scars.

00:34:27.440 We'll give you that as the days and weeks continue.

00:34:31.460 Our sponsor of this half hour is MyPatriotSupply.

00:34:36.120 The United States plans to carry out a new test of the THAAD missile system

00:34:41.480 against an intermediate-range ballistic missile in the coming days.

00:34:46.560 This test is going to be the first test by THAAD to defend against an attack

00:34:51.360 by an intermediate-range ballistic missile.

00:34:55.480 Where are the THAADs being put?

00:34:58.380 Alaska.

00:34:59.060 The U.S. Missile Defense Agency said THAAD had a 100% successful track record

00:35:04.640 in its 13 flight tests since 2006.

00:35:08.320 Will North Korea now respond?

00:35:12.020 We are looking at a very delicate situation,

00:35:15.620 and it's really going to come down to what happens and how we react.

00:35:23.580 Emergency food kits are about self-reliance.

00:35:26.740 Emergency food kits are for those people who are brave enough to say,

00:35:32.320 you know what?

00:35:33.760 It's not always been like this.

00:35:35.540 It's never been like this.

00:35:38.240 And if the world happens to go into chaos,

00:35:40.680 we'll make it out the other side and we'll be better.

00:35:43.740 But I've got to feed my family.

00:35:46.180 I've got to take care of things.

00:35:47.400 I've got to do the right thing right now.

00:35:50.100 Get a new survival food supply kit,

00:35:52.320 which has 102 adult servings of breakfast, lunch, and dinner for only $99.

00:35:58.100 That's less than a dollar per meal.

00:36:00.160 You can call 800-200-7163,

00:36:07.820 Be prepared.

00:36:09.580 Have confidence.

00:36:10.700 Not hope that things are going to work out.

00:36:12.720 Have confidence that you and your family are going to be prepared for whatever comes your way.

00:36:22.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:36:27.800 Mercury.

00:36:31.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:36:34.060 We'll tell you about a new group of people that want to rethink the Democratic Party.

00:36:39.680 Also, Donald Trump.

00:36:42.500 His son is in some hot water with some.

00:38:41.600 On demand.

00:38:43.580 Hello, America.

00:38:46.200 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:48.680 We have a couple of things that we really need to cover.

00:38:51.600 First of all, what happened with Donald Trump and this Russia scandal.

00:38:56.900 In case you haven't been following it, we're going to give you the facts without comment.

00:39:01.420 And then we'll tell you what both sides are saying about it.

00:39:05.660 We'll give you that coming up.

00:39:06.880 Also, we are starting another leadership round here at the campus of the Blaze.

00:39:15.700 Mercury One is really focusing now on education.

00:39:22.400 And I want to share with you a phone call that I got on Friday that just made my whole weekend.

00:39:30.840 And I think it will make yours as well as there is hope that we can change things and we can reach the millennials.

00:39:42.000 We're going to start there, right now.

00:39:44.380 I will make a stand.

00:39:47.820 I will raise my voice.

00:39:50.080 I will hold your hand.

00:39:52.440 Because we are one.

00:39:54.300 I will beat my drum.

00:39:56.560 I have made my choice.

00:39:58.800 We will overcome.

00:40:01.100 Because we are one.

00:40:02.780 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:40:06.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:40:11.900 All right.

00:40:12.560 Let me just give you the facts.

00:40:14.060 The facts that we know.

00:40:15.700 This is not opinion.

00:40:17.080 These are the things that we know about what is going on with the Donald Trump and Russia story.

00:40:22.620 Fact number one.

00:40:23.480 Donald Trump Jr. promised damaging information about Hillary Clinton before agreeing to meet with a Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign.

00:40:33.920 Donald Trump Jr. denied speaking to the Russians regarding the campaign issues back in March.

00:40:40.560 On Saturday, Donald J. Trump said, oh, yeah, there was a meeting with a Russian, but it was about adoption.

00:40:48.020 The New York Times released a major story yesterday that shows that Donald J. Trump Jr. did meet with somebody, and it was about having information on the Democrats and Hillary Clinton.

00:41:05.380 On Sunday, he reversed that, and he said, oh, yes, I met with a Russian lawyer.

00:41:10.980 She was offering some information regarding Russian support for the DNC as a premise to get this meeting about adoption.

00:41:21.000 She didn't really have anything, and the meeting ended.

00:41:25.520 Kushner recently, a few weeks ago, amended what's called his SF-86.

00:41:32.420 Now, this is a form that everybody has to make out when you're going to get a top-secret clearance.

00:41:37.500 You have to say everything that everybody you've ever met with, everything you can possibly think of to make sure that the government knows everything, all of your connections.

00:41:52.420 He left this out.

00:41:54.120 Now, it's very, very clear on a top security clearance, top-secret security clearance, that you have to say everything under penalty of jail time.

00:42:08.320 I'm sure you don't remember all your meetings with Russian agents.

00:42:12.360 I mean, all of them?

00:42:14.080 Come on.

00:42:14.780 This is the part.

00:42:18.340 This is the bad thing.

00:42:19.800 Yeah.

00:42:20.160 Because you would know that you met with this person, and then two weeks before it comes out, you suddenly say, oh, I better put something on my application.

00:42:34.200 Why did he amend this application to include the meeting suddenly?

00:42:39.820 Manifort also recently disclosed the meeting, and Donald Trump Jr.'s role in organizing it to congressional investigators who had questions about his foreign contacts.

00:42:53.000 So, not only did Donald J. Trump know about it, most likely remember, if he didn't remember, he was reminded by Paul Manafort, who testified to Congress.

00:43:02.520 The Russian lawyer has several ties to influential people in the Russian government.

00:43:08.420 She is an advocate for Kremlin issues.

00:43:11.560 Now, those are the facts.

00:43:15.840 There's two ways to look at this story, and we'll tell you about that at the bottom of the hour.

00:43:24.020 I want to give you a piece of good news.

00:43:26.560 You read these things, and we see all of these things that are going on.

00:43:30.840 And in hour number one, last hour, we talked a little bit about what's happening in California and how the Democratic Party is split.

00:43:39.540 And there's a chance for smart, liberty-minded people to learn how to speak the language of the left.

00:43:54.720 Not the uber-left, not the crazy-left, but the neighborly-left.

00:43:59.180 And start to reach out and find things in common.

00:44:05.560 There's a chance right now to really change things.

00:44:10.680 There's also a chance to begin to change the course of our future by interacting with millennials.

00:44:19.900 And I'm doing several things at Mercury, the Mercury Studios, the Blaze, and also Mercury One that are, I think, very exciting

00:44:31.300 because we are beginning to turn a corner, and we're going to focus on education and millennials across the board.

00:44:42.580 We started something called a leadership program, a two-week leadership program at Mercury One.

00:44:52.480 And it's a class, a two-week class, where people come in, they have to be between 18 and 25,

00:45:00.800 and they learn the history of the United States.

00:45:04.220 They learn by using the original documents.

00:45:07.380 It's not my opinion or David Barton's opinion or anybody else's.

00:45:11.920 It's all original sources and original documents that these people can see.

00:45:17.520 On Friday, as I was leaving, somebody from customer service came down and said,

00:45:21.680 Here, I want to play this.

00:45:23.200 It just came in.

00:45:24.620 I want you to hear this.

00:45:25.680 This is what I heard.

00:45:27.280 My children, two of them, were at the internship that you had in June.

00:45:33.000 And I've tried several times unsuccessfully to get through on the program.

00:45:38.200 I don't know why I'm unable to.

00:45:41.100 But I just feel compelled to let you know how much that internship meant to my kids

00:45:51.180 and how much it impacted them.

00:45:53.820 And I just wanted to say thank you.

00:45:57.220 I hope this message gets you, Mr. Beck, because you are reaching the young people.

00:46:06.700 So this came in from Susan Culver.

00:46:10.000 Her two sons that were at our last leadership conference was Edwin Culver and Gabriel.

00:46:17.040 Edwin is now teaching English in China.

00:46:22.000 Gabriel just finished an engineering program.

00:46:24.500 And Susan is on the phone with us now.

00:46:25.960 Hi, Susan.

00:46:27.700 Hi, Glenn.

00:46:29.180 I can't believe I'm talking to you.

00:46:31.480 I'm so nervous.

00:46:32.500 Oh, don't be nervous.

00:46:34.100 I'm thrilled.

00:46:35.380 I've been waiting to talk to you all weekend.

00:46:36.740 I got this on.

00:46:37.560 I heard your message on Friday.

00:46:39.580 And I wanted to hear about what happened when your kids came back home and how they had changed.

00:46:47.420 Well, I do have to make one correction.

00:46:49.860 My youngest son, Gabriel.

00:46:51.640 Yes.

00:46:52.020 He will be going into his second year.

00:46:55.180 He has not graduated yet.

00:46:57.220 So I want to make that correction.

00:46:59.100 All right.

00:46:59.500 When my children, the very first day that they were there that night, my oldest one, they both talked to me, but my oldest one, EJ, Edwin, talked to me first.

00:47:12.380 And he said, Mom, this is sweet.

00:47:16.500 And that's exactly how he said it.

00:47:18.920 And when they made it, I could back up a little bit.

00:47:22.560 When they made it into the program, as soon as they told me, because I didn't think they had a chance.

00:47:28.320 And when they told me they made it, I said, you won the gold ticket, the Willy Wonka gold ticket.

00:47:35.400 And they were like, what?

00:47:38.200 And I said, oh, forget it.

00:47:39.640 You just won.

00:47:40.300 That's all that matters to me.

00:47:41.520 And that is how they felt when they got down there.

00:47:45.840 The excitement.

00:47:47.760 Every single night, they called me and they told me something different.

00:47:53.200 And this is the one thing that I wanted you to hear, Mr. Beck.

00:47:57.100 And it's this.

00:47:57.960 My older son, and I'm going to cry because I cried when he told me he was hanging on to a rifle or a gun that was used in the war.

00:48:09.080 American Revolution.

00:48:10.920 Yes, the American Revolution and the story behind it.

00:48:15.400 And he said, as I was holding that, at that moment, I determined that I was going to be a better man.

00:48:24.240 And I said, have you ever heard Glenn say that?

00:48:30.280 And he said, no, not that particular phrase.

00:48:34.200 I just know what it did for me.

00:48:37.360 And he is already trying to figure out ways where he lives.

00:48:45.020 He lives in Sarasota, Florida, or Bradenton.

00:48:48.260 He works in Sarasota.

00:48:49.460 He is trying to figure out ways to reach the millennials that are his age with their terminology.

00:49:00.540 And he is a reader like what you are.

00:49:02.520 He always has a book in his hand.

00:49:04.840 And he had been reading a book about the language of the left.

00:49:10.240 And you connected the dots for him because I'm more of a go-in and get my point across type person.

00:49:19.880 And he's even been teaching me to understand that you won't reach people.

00:49:27.840 You can talk to the choir.

00:49:30.040 You can preach or sing to the choir.

00:49:31.720 But when you reach someone who doesn't see it your way, you have to have different words in order for them to even start to ask questions and not be put on the defense.

00:49:44.460 You know, it's funny because that was the last thing before they left, the last class I taught.

00:49:48.740 And it was about that.

00:49:52.440 And I'm glad he walked away and picked up the books and started to read because it really has provided a great deal of hope to me.

00:50:03.440 And I know it works.

00:50:05.800 I know it works.

00:50:06.740 Susan, thank you so much for calling and telling me your story and what happened with your kids.

00:50:12.880 I'm thrilled.

00:50:14.080 And I'm glad they were a part of it.

00:50:15.640 Thank you for calling.

00:50:17.120 Can I say one more thing?

00:50:18.740 Sure.

00:50:20.280 I had an idea, and I don't know.

00:50:23.460 You have asked for ideas over the air.

00:50:26.520 Sure.

00:50:27.200 And I had also called David Barton, the wall builders.

00:50:34.220 And my suggestion was our kids don't see a lot of good leadership.

00:50:40.980 Leadership starts in the home.

00:50:42.620 But as far as on our political leaders, and they don't see a lot of good leaders.

00:50:48.960 And my question to wall builders was to take what they have learned and to build upon it.

00:50:57.340 I don't know if it's possible to build on it in a year from now, require more of them to come down and to if this is possible, maybe it's not possible to come down and dive deeper into the history, but more so into leadership.

00:51:16.120 Because I don't know if kids know how to be leaders.

00:51:19.720 Susan, I think you're exactly right.

00:51:22.140 And we are working towards that.

00:51:23.960 So I thank you for your suggestion, and just know that hopefully within a year, that is where we're going to be.

00:51:31.000 This was the beginning steps, and I thank you for your call.

00:51:34.400 This is the beginning steps of something that Mercury One is headed towards.

00:51:39.240 We have got to reach the millennials.

00:51:42.640 And in our charter, we are about helping people, helping and rescuing people.

00:51:52.420 And I think that includes, because we have education as part of our charter, that includes educating.

00:51:59.460 We are in a desperate, dire situation when it comes to people who are 20 years old.

00:52:05.760 They don't know the America prior to 9-11.

00:52:10.100 They don't know American history.

00:52:12.260 They haven't been taught any of it.

00:52:14.360 We have to reach that generation.

00:52:17.260 And this is just the first baby step towards that.

00:52:21.540 By the way, we have our next group is in.

00:52:24.140 I think this is our third group of leaders.

00:52:25.680 There's about 50 of them that are in now, and they're just beginning this morning over in the Mercury One building on our campus.

00:52:36.520 And I'm going to go visit them for the first time.

00:52:39.720 This is a $300 experience for them to just pay for the course.

00:52:45.220 But then also, they have to pay for their own food and lodging and everything else.

00:52:49.240 We have to turn away a lot of people because they don't have the money.

00:52:53.560 We don't want to do that.

00:52:55.040 But could you, would you, please go to mercuryone.org and donate if you would like to help us with this mission.

00:53:03.300 This mission includes education in many ways that we are going to be talking about here in the next few weeks.

00:53:10.940 But let's see if we can get some of these kids who just can't afford the $300 to be able to go, let alone the food and lodging.

00:53:21.620 If you can help support, please, even $5, it's more than welcome.

00:53:27.700 Just go to mercuryone.org and donate mercuryone.org.

00:53:33.060 All right, our sponsor this half hour is Mercury One Real Estate.

00:53:38.320 Bonnie and Michelle, Bonnie and Michael.

00:53:41.940 Bonnie and Michael live in Virginia.

00:53:44.520 And they had a house in Ohio that they needed to sell.

00:53:47.840 For a year, nothing was done.

00:53:50.780 Their agent never called, never kept them posted.

00:53:53.300 They would look at each other.

00:53:55.640 Have you heard anything on the house?

00:53:57.860 Bonnie and Michael decided to make a change.

00:54:01.080 And they were listening to this program.

00:54:02.880 And they said, I'm going to give real estate agents I trust dot com a chance.

00:54:08.480 Their new real estate agent is Stacy.

00:54:10.640 She got to work in Ohio.

00:54:12.120 And in no time, they received an offer on their house.

00:54:15.840 From the time they called to the time they had sold the house.

00:54:22.200 Two weeks.

00:54:23.660 What was the agent doing for the other 12 months?

00:54:28.480 Two weeks.

00:54:30.500 Thousands of families have already seen the difference realestateagentsitrust.com can make.

00:54:36.480 Put them to the test.

00:54:37.860 Sell your house on time for the most amount of money.

00:54:45.180 realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:54:48.520 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:54:50.800 Mercury.

00:54:56.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:54:58.660 Okay, let's look at that.

00:54:59.880 We have a bombshell climate study.

00:55:03.320 I read this last night.

00:55:04.400 It's on theblaze.com right now.

00:55:06.640 I read it as it broke last night.

00:55:08.620 And it's fantastic.

00:55:10.200 It is right up Stu's alley.

00:55:12.040 Have you read this yet?

00:55:13.160 No.

00:55:13.820 Actually, Pat was telling me about it this morning.

00:55:15.560 I haven't read it yet.

00:55:16.300 It's pretty amazing.

00:55:17.520 Awesome.

00:55:18.360 It's awesome.

00:55:19.280 For anybody who thinks that global warming is just nothing but a hoax, I mean, this is pornography.

00:55:26.740 You've just been validated. 0.73

00:55:28.140 Yeah, this is pornography.

00:55:29.900 This is just so satisfying.

00:55:32.380 Not that pornography is, but anyway.

00:55:35.520 Did you just advocate pornography on the air?

00:55:37.460 I think I did accidentally.

00:55:39.060 Yeah.

00:55:39.700 That's a story.

00:55:40.380 I don't know, bro.

00:55:40.860 But it was weather porn.

00:55:42.360 So that's like, you know, a low pressure system.

00:55:44.880 Pretty low.

00:55:45.540 You know, meeting a high pressure system.

00:55:47.340 And when they hook up, it's fireworks.

00:55:49.760 Anyway, Donald Trump Jr. has come out and has addressed the issue that we spoke about at

00:56:00.460 the top of the hour, his meeting with Kremlin-connected Russian lawyers and having them say the meeting

00:56:09.300 is about information on Hillary Clinton.

00:56:12.760 Then he gets there and he says they didn't have any information on Hillary Clinton.

00:56:17.080 And it was just a ruse to get him to talk about something else, adoptions, et cetera, et cetera,

00:56:23.240 which doesn't make sense because the president really can't do anything about it.

00:56:28.080 It kind of falls apart.

00:56:31.240 However, he tweeted today, obviously, I'm the first person on a campaign to ever take a meeting to hear information about an opponent.

00:56:40.600 I mean, he's actually saying he went there to hear.

00:56:44.620 And this is step four of this conversion, which I guess is the most important part.

00:56:48.420 And if that's the case, why didn't he just say it at the beginning?

00:56:51.420 Yeah, I went to get information on Hillary.

00:56:54.020 Because I think actually that's, you know, the fact that it's a Russian is the only thing here that stands out. 0.99

00:56:59.300 So here's the thing.

00:56:59.880 Not only a Russian, it's not just an opponent.

00:57:02.060 It's the secretary of state, former secretary of state and former first lady.

00:57:06.260 So it's a different level.

00:57:08.260 You go to some guy, a diner in Ohio, and he's like, listen, I got something for you.

00:57:14.720 I'm going to slip this envelope over here.

00:57:16.700 It's about Bob, the guy you're running against.

00:57:19.700 Okay.

00:57:20.320 I don't have to necessarily notify anybody unless that unless it's really damaging.

00:57:25.520 And I think it's false.

00:57:28.480 Okay.

00:57:29.240 But when a Russian agent meets with you and has damaging information or claims to have damaging information of your former secretary of state and a person running for president of the United States, your first call should be to the FBI.

00:57:47.740 Yeah, well, I mean, let's say even if it isn't right, let's say you do this.

00:57:54.700 It's it's she's just pressuring me on some adoption law, whatever.

00:57:57.800 I'm just going to move on with my life and not mention it.

00:57:59.980 When you go through all of this time where the Russia thing has been such a big deal.

00:58:06.160 Why did you wait so long?

00:58:07.680 And I guess this is one of my big problems with the way Trump, the whole administration handles this stuff.

00:58:12.460 Just get to this.

00:58:14.100 This this end point is actually fairly rational.

00:58:17.200 Right.

00:58:17.860 You know what?

00:58:18.400 So I had an acquaintance.

00:58:19.560 They said they had someone who knew something about my opponent.

00:58:21.500 I'm a political in the middle of a political campaign.

00:58:23.940 Of course, I wanted to hear it.

00:58:25.140 It wasn't anything.

00:58:26.020 No big deal.

00:58:26.860 Why didn't we start there?

00:58:29.060 Why are we going through four months of denials and changing stories to get to this?

00:58:33.440 It usually indicates, A, the story is not true.

00:58:37.480 B, you're hiding something else.

00:58:39.220 Or C, you have absolutely no idea what you're doing.

00:58:41.900 Or may I suggest another one from history.

00:58:45.820 There is another option.

00:58:47.200 From history that I think you will tend to agree with when we come back.

00:58:53.860 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:59:09.460 I'm so glad that you have tuned in today.

00:59:12.060 Thank you so much.

00:59:13.000 Let me explain this Donald Trump fiasco with Russia. 0.92

00:59:19.440 This is yet another clown show that the media and everybody else is going to get all wrapped up about. 0.90

00:59:28.100 So let me just give you the facts without any opinion. 0.59

00:59:31.400 Here's what happened.

00:59:33.000 Let me say that again.

00:59:46.560 Let me say that again.

00:59:50.400 He was promised damaging information on Hillary Clinton before he agreed to meet with the Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer during the campaign.

00:59:59.880 This is an important thing to remember because Donald Trump Jr. just admitted this.

01:00:06.540 He kind of admitted it yesterday and basically just tweeted out, yeah, I met with her for information, but I had to know.

01:00:15.480 Okay, he denied speaking to Russians regarding campaign issues back in March, and in fact, he filled out a top-secret clearance application, which is called the SF-86.

01:00:32.720 It's a form.

01:00:33.820 Everybody has to fill it out.

01:00:35.260 You have to talk about any meetings, any connections that you have at all with any foreigners or anybody who is, you know, maybe being watched.

01:00:44.720 Are you sure that includes Russians?

01:00:46.660 I am.

01:00:47.800 The Chinese? 0.97

01:00:48.460 And I think, especially since he filled this out after the Russian investigation was going on, you would make sure to remember all of the things that you did with Russians.

01:00:58.240 He did not put this on originally.

01:01:01.080 He says he just forgot.

01:01:03.980 On Saturday, the New York Times knew they were coming out with this story, so they asked him, can you tell me about this meeting?

01:01:13.960 And he said, yes, it was about adoption.

01:01:18.100 Then the newspaper came out with its article.

01:01:22.100 Yesterday, he said that the Russian lawyer offered information regarding Russian support for the DNC as a premise to get the meeting.

01:01:31.300 He said, but then she didn't have anything, and the meeting ended after she talked a little bit about adoption.

01:01:39.920 There's a big conflict between Russia and the United States about who can adopt from what country.

01:01:45.060 And this all stems from sanctions and everything else.

01:01:48.520 During the Obama administration, they put sanctions on other countries.

01:01:50.560 So, but again, the meeting ended after it was clear she didn't have anything.

01:01:56.200 He said it was very confusing, and then she went into this adoption talk.

01:02:00.380 So the premise was, and he knew it going in, they set it up, I have information on Hillary Clinton.

01:02:07.360 And it's important to point out here, too, that yes, there's been a lot of problems with the media, and they've done a lot of really bad things and been really annoying lately and often.

01:02:16.060 However, this is the type of thing that people were saying was fake news, and now Donald Trump Jr. has confirmed every part of the story.

01:02:22.600 Yes.

01:02:22.960 He has, step by step, confirmed every single part of all of these stories.

01:02:27.200 This, I didn't believe.

01:02:29.740 Yeah, when I first saw it, yeah, I didn't believe it either.

01:02:31.360 I didn't believe this, and I didn't believe that, I really, I've been saying the whole time, there's no collusion between the Trumps and the Russians.

01:02:40.400 That didn't happen.

01:02:42.060 I believe that the Russians hacked in DNC, released that information through WikiLeaks, and also that they tried to, we have evidence now, especially in Illinois,

01:02:55.240 that they hacked into the, to the systems, the voting systems here in America, to try to cause chaos.

01:03:02.060 And I still don't believe they colluded.

01:03:04.600 Well, I would agree, I would agree with you, I still would agree with you, but I didn't think that anyone, Trump or in his family, would meet with the Russians and, you know, was involved in this.

01:03:17.940 Now, so you know.

01:03:19.300 I would absolutely believe that they met with him to try to find dirt on Hillary.

01:03:24.180 Why not?

01:03:25.220 Of course.

01:03:25.780 Well, you should have disclosed that.

01:03:27.480 Yes.

01:03:27.860 Yes.

01:03:28.060 You should have disclosed that.

01:03:29.140 Now, here's the key to this, is timing.

01:03:31.360 This is three weeks before WikiLeaks comes out.

01:03:34.500 So, did they know about WikiLeaks prior to WikiLeaks?

01:03:38.380 Were the Russians trying to give Donald Trump information?

01:03:42.180 And there's no evidence of that yet.

01:03:43.480 Right, I know that.

01:03:44.180 I want you to know, you think you know my opinion on this.

01:03:48.960 I'm going to give you my opinion in a second.

01:03:51.020 But I think people maybe on both sides are going to go, oh, I know where you're leading.

01:03:55.900 No, you don't.

01:03:59.880 Now, Sunday, he admitted it.

01:04:02.960 He also, just a few weeks ago, amended his top security clearance application and added this meeting back in.

01:04:11.680 One reason is, you don't want to be caught concealing something on this document.

01:04:18.360 This is like, have you ever gone to a...

01:04:19.720 Well, then it's a crime.

01:04:20.740 Yeah.

01:04:21.020 It's a felony.

01:04:21.740 If you've ever gone to a firearm store and bought a gun, I love these questions.

01:04:28.020 Are you here illegally?

01:04:30.780 Are you a criminal on the loose? 0.97

01:04:34.640 You're like, who says yes to this?

01:04:36.940 But the deal is, if you check that no and you lie, now you're in real serious trouble.

01:04:49.260 That's why those questions are there.

01:04:51.020 That's kind of like this.

01:04:52.480 This becomes a felony to leave something off of that.

01:04:56.340 And it could actually lead to treason charges.

01:04:59.380 And again, it goes to intent, right?

01:05:00.980 Not every time you leave something off to the serious, or you're facing treason charges.

01:05:06.280 No, but if you were a submariner and you didn't have anything to do with anything and you had no political connections, you'd get the death penalty.

01:05:16.080 But if you're connected at all with anybody with power, don't worry about it.

01:05:20.140 That happens all the time.

01:05:21.780 I mean, it is possible.

01:05:23.640 You had classified documents in your underwear.

01:05:27.180 Don't worry about it.

01:05:28.500 But it is possible and common to leave off a meeting from your life with someone.

01:05:34.180 So these things do happen.

01:05:35.680 The issue here is, of course, this has been under intense investigation for six months.

01:05:39.740 And when that's the question constantly, it's hard to understand how you could be leaving these things off.

01:05:46.580 Well, Manafort disclosed the meeting and Donald Trump Jr.'s role in organizing the meeting to congressional investigators

01:05:55.900 who wanted to know about his foreign contacts.

01:05:59.000 So Manafort remembered it.

01:06:01.040 The Russian lawyer has ties to influential people in the Russian government.

01:06:05.640 She is an advocate for the Kremlin and its issues.

01:06:08.940 So those are the facts that we know.

01:06:11.920 Now, let me give you what possibly could be happening.

01:06:17.520 And then the perspective on what I think is who the real winner here is.

01:06:26.080 First, let me go back to history.

01:06:28.560 This, I believe, could have happened before.

01:06:33.840 Not the same circumstances, but the same game plan.

01:06:36.580 What do you have here?

01:06:39.700 You have somebody who, if they just would have admitted it early, it would go away.

01:06:46.980 And it wouldn't be a problem, right?

01:06:48.540 This wouldn't have been a problem.

01:06:50.080 Right.

01:06:50.480 I mean, if they would have put that on the form in the first place, if you would have said,

01:06:54.280 yeah, I met with them on, thought it was about dirt on Hillary and it turned out to be an adoption.

01:06:58.320 And then the media would have made something out of it.

01:07:00.540 But we've already heard this.

01:07:02.360 Long gone by now.

01:07:03.040 Okay, so long gone.

01:07:04.020 So why deny it and then admit it later?

01:07:06.140 Correct, correct.

01:07:08.920 Can anyone remember anything in recent history that kind of feels like that?

01:07:14.300 Like, why not just say it?

01:07:17.160 Why not just produce it?

01:07:19.380 Why not just come out and get in front of it and make this all go away?

01:07:23.820 Why let something like a birth certificate drag on for seven years? 1.00

01:07:32.120 Just produce the damn birth certificate. 1.00

01:07:33.160 It's a good distraction that you actually like. 1.00

01:07:35.340 Why is it a distraction that you like?

01:07:37.660 Because it's taking the attention away from something else.

01:07:40.580 Oh, deeper than that.

01:07:41.740 And you also know the answer, which is you actually do have the birth certificate.

01:07:45.380 And?

01:07:45.840 And you can release it whenever you feel like it.

01:07:47.400 And what is the, what is, what happens in this time?

01:07:52.860 What is happening in this time?

01:07:54.320 The other side goes crazy.

01:07:55.660 And?

01:07:56.400 And they discredit themselves.

01:07:57.620 Yes.

01:07:58.400 Yeah.

01:07:58.860 Yes.

01:07:59.740 So you have this.

01:08:01.740 You don't produce it.

01:08:03.360 And because it makes your supporters dig their heels in even deeper. 0.71

01:08:08.900 And the other side begins to look crazy, conspiratorial.

01:08:13.720 You just let them dig their own grave. 0.69

01:08:15.080 And you let them dig their own grave.

01:08:16.300 I mean, the Obama administration did that beautifully.

01:08:18.620 Beautifully.

01:08:19.100 With the birth certificate thing.

01:08:20.420 And you know in the end, you actually have the answer.

01:08:24.080 You do.

01:08:24.360 Yes.

01:08:24.600 You do.

01:08:25.160 Yes.

01:08:25.620 So I don't know if they have the answer, but there is, you said, you know, there are two

01:08:30.340 options.

01:08:30.900 Well, there's actually a third option here.

01:08:32.700 That this is a very well crafted.

01:08:35.360 Maybe they like it.

01:08:36.400 Yeah.

01:08:36.800 Something that the Trump administration likes.

01:08:38.860 Why keep punching the media?

01:08:41.120 Because it helps you with your base.

01:08:43.460 Why hold this back?

01:08:45.280 Because it helps you with your base.

01:08:48.040 Possibly.

01:08:48.880 Possibly.

01:08:49.380 It's possible.

01:08:49.800 The other thing is that bothers me is that we're not talking about who the big winner

01:08:55.280 is.

01:08:56.360 And that's because the media hasn't done their homework to really understand or explain this

01:09:01.260 to the American people.

01:09:03.340 Russia, we have evidence that in Illinois specifically, Russia was not playing for Hillary or for Trump.

01:09:14.600 Trump, they are only trying to cause chaos and a disruption in the voting system.

01:09:22.620 What they were trying to do was delete voters from the rolls.

01:09:28.240 So all over Illinois, people would go to the poll and they would say, you're not registered

01:09:33.660 here.

01:09:34.940 What are you talking about?

01:09:36.100 Of course, I'm registered here.

01:09:37.680 That's where I always vote.

01:09:39.220 I'm sorry.

01:09:39.860 You're not on the records.

01:09:40.760 They wanted to do that with 15 million people.

01:09:45.500 There would have been Trump voters.

01:09:46.640 There would have been Hillary voters. 1.00

01:09:47.840 Yep.

01:09:48.080 That would have been huge.

01:09:48.940 What it would have done is made people suspect that either Hillary screwed up the voting thing 1.00

01:09:56.480 or Trump people were screwing with the voting thing.

01:10:01.960 It would have caused massive chaos.

01:10:05.020 That's all that Hillary, that's sorry.

01:10:07.440 That's all that Russia wants is chaos. 0.90

01:10:10.220 How do I know it?

01:10:11.600 They've said it.

01:10:13.460 They have said their plan to create chaos and to create distrust and disharmony with the

01:10:20.380 American people.

01:10:21.760 So who's winning here?

01:10:23.960 However, this lawyer may not have had anything at all and may have said, Boris and I have

01:10:32.860 some things to tell you.

01:10:34.500 Come see Natasha and we will tell you all kinds of dirty little secrets. 1.00

01:10:39.980 OK, I want to hear that.

01:10:42.100 Natasha, tell Boris to bring his word and let's talk.

01:10:46.780 They sit down.

01:10:48.100 What do you say?

01:10:48.760 I just want to talk to you about the adoption.

01:10:51.180 That's all I want to talk about.

01:10:53.760 Then it comes out.

01:10:55.580 He's hidden it.

01:10:57.340 It comes out that, yes, indeed, there was a meeting.

01:11:01.480 What does it do?

01:11:02.840 It causes chaos.

01:11:04.920 It causes us not.

01:11:06.100 It causes half the country to not believe the press and half the country to not believe

01:11:12.820 the president.

01:11:14.460 There's no truth here.

01:11:16.280 There's no finding truth.

01:11:19.080 Russia knows that.

01:11:20.160 This is a propaganda campaign to disrupt us and to cause us to split apart even more.

01:11:30.540 This is a brilliant campaign by the Russians.

01:11:33.760 But we don't have anybody on the left or the right actually declaring that the Russians are our enemy.

01:11:43.760 They're walking away with us killing each other when the problem is Russia. 0.75

01:11:50.660 The way to fix this is to focus on the external, not the internal.

01:12:01.260 Our sponsor, this half hour, is Delta Defense.

01:12:05.600 Delta Defense, there are over 300 million civilians that own guns, or at least 300 million guns owned by civilians.

01:12:16.880 300 million.

01:12:18.160 You're never going to round those up.

01:12:20.080 You're never going to get 300 million guns off the streets.

01:12:22.840 America is filled with people who understand that responsible gun ownership is a smart choice.

01:12:32.000 And that's why the USCCA is here.

01:12:34.720 They provide education, training, and legal and financial backup plans to responsible gun owners.

01:12:41.300 Listen to that.

01:12:43.260 Legal and financial backup plans.

01:12:45.600 What does that mean?

01:12:47.540 They provide insurance with attorneys and the money.

01:12:52.220 Because if you, God forbid, ever have to pull your trigger in self-defense, it's going to screw your life up for at least three years.

01:12:58.900 Do you have the money?

01:13:00.520 Do you have the lawyers?

01:13:02.040 Do you have the wherewithal?

01:13:03.160 Well, they're going to make sure that your life, because you tried to save your life, that your life isn't destroyed in the end by a bunch of crooks in a courtroom.

01:13:17.020 Membership prepares you for the moments before, during, and after self-defense shooting.

01:13:21.200 Chances are you're going to file a homeowner's claim, which is one in 900 odds that you're going to need a self-defense insurance.

01:13:28.140 I want you to get this private insurance so you can have the people standing behind you.

01:13:39.560 Your home insurance, one in 900 that you're going to need it.

01:13:43.160 Self-defense insurance, one in 1700.

01:13:47.680 That's pretty amazing.

01:13:49.040 I've filed claims on my home insurance.

01:13:55.760 Just visit protectanddefend.com.

01:13:58.660 You'll hear true member stories and hear about how the USCCA helped other responsible gun owners, just like you, get back to their families.

01:14:05.720 After a self-defense incident, it's protectanddefend.com.

01:14:11.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:14:16.500 Mercury.

01:14:20.260 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:14:22.880 This is really amazing, the things that are happening right now.

01:14:28.240 Juno is a spacecraft from NASA that was sent out to study Jupiter.

01:14:34.560 One orbit around Jupiter, this is how big Jupiter is, one orbit takes 53 days to complete.

01:14:40.780 The spacecraft is supposed to maneuver itself into a shorter two-week orbit, but it had a problem with the engine.

01:14:53.160 So it is making its pass tonight at 10 o'clock Eastern time.

01:14:58.180 It's going into its closest approach, 2,200 miles above the planet's surface.

01:15:06.720 Then, 11 and a half minutes later, it's going to move over the great red spot, passing within 5,600 miles of the storm's surface.

01:15:16.120 This storm has been going on forever.

01:15:19.180 Yeah, long time.

01:15:20.360 And it's larger than Earth.

01:15:22.020 The storm is bigger than our whole planet.

01:15:27.400 It's pretty amazing.

01:15:28.400 I mean, if you had a house there, you'd never sell it.

01:15:35.780 It's like, I'm not living there.

01:15:36.960 There's that storm still going on.

01:15:38.600 You'd be stuck with it for a while.

01:15:39.820 Call me when that storm is over.

01:15:41.460 I would say the rental rates there are really low, though.

01:15:45.320 You could probably get great value.

01:15:46.620 Probably.

01:15:47.460 Probably.

01:15:48.100 But again, it's a giant storm bigger than Earth.

01:15:51.900 Right.

01:15:52.540 So you're staying indoors the whole time.

01:15:56.820 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:15:59.860 Mercury.

01:16:00.460 Mercury.

01:16:11.460 The Blaze Radio Network.

01:16:19.540 On demand.

01:16:23.020 Hello, America.

01:16:24.680 There's some really amazing things.

01:16:27.460 We have climate change.

01:16:31.480 What are the real facts on climate change?

01:16:34.040 A stunning peer-reviewed report coming out.

01:16:38.020 Also, the opioid crisis.

01:16:40.840 If we have time, another stunning fact on how things have really changed here in America.

01:16:47.020 And I want to start with an article I found in Vox that they went up and they talked to

01:16:52.040 people in Michigan and they said, what do you think about this Trump-Russia story?

01:17:00.100 Fascinating to hear the people in Michigan.

01:17:02.740 Small little town, about 6,500 people.

01:17:06.220 You know, it's dairy farmers and just regular people.

01:17:10.840 What do they say?

01:17:12.300 We begin there right now.

01:17:13.720 I will make a stand.

01:17:17.020 I will raise my voice.

01:17:19.300 I will hold your hand.

01:17:21.740 Because we are one.

01:17:23.560 I will beat my drum.

01:17:25.760 I have made my choice.

01:17:28.020 We will overcome.

01:17:30.340 Because we are one.

01:17:32.160 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:17:36.200 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:17:39.760 So Vox went up to the hinterlands of Michigan.

01:17:46.220 Small little dairy community.

01:17:49.260 And they talked to people of all walks of life.

01:17:54.180 One of the first ones they mentioned is Rich Marshbanks.

01:17:58.920 He's a veteran.

01:18:00.260 He's owned a barbershop, cutting people's hair for 32 years.

01:18:03.380 He said, what do I think about the Trump-Russia issues?

01:18:06.960 The Russia-Trump issues?

01:18:08.960 I think it's never been proven that he had anything to do with Russia whatsoever.

01:18:12.720 But the liberal left will not leave it alone.

01:18:14.860 They're trying to destroy him.

01:18:16.260 The media.

01:18:16.960 The fake news.

01:18:17.900 Anything they can come up with.

01:18:19.700 They're trying to destroy him.

01:18:20.940 They're looking for anything they can to discredit him and boot him out.

01:18:24.260 And I think that's a shame.

01:18:27.240 I'm also a veteran, so I'm concerned about how he wants to straighten out the VA.

01:18:31.440 That's very important to me.

01:18:32.940 The military.

01:18:33.740 We need strong military.

01:18:35.100 We can't be number one if we don't have the biggest stick.

01:18:37.340 We have to build up our military, which Obama desecrated.

01:18:41.340 Okay.

01:18:42.080 This guy brings up a really good point that nobody's talking about.

01:18:45.680 I think we should point out today, congratulations, Donald Trump.

01:18:50.440 Five hundred people have been fired from the VA.

01:18:55.640 They have gone in and done an investigation.

01:18:57.960 Five hundred and twenty-six employees have been terminated.

01:19:01.920 Another twenty-seven have been demoted.

01:19:04.540 And a hundred and ninety-four were suspended for at least two weeks.

01:19:10.360 The Secretary of Veterans Affairs released a statement over the weekend saying,

01:19:15.860 Veterans and taxpayers have a right to know what we're doing to hold our employees accountable

01:19:20.360 and make our personal actions transparent.

01:19:23.360 Posting this information online for all to see and updating it weekly.

01:19:26.620 We will do just that.

01:19:28.860 That's fantastic.

01:19:30.460 Thank you to the administration for actually following through and looking at the VA.

01:19:38.140 Another woman, she's a dairy farmer, mom of six. 1.00

01:19:41.200 She said, it's just the left trying to dog the president because he's an outsider.

01:19:45.340 They don't want him in there.

01:19:46.480 So they're going to try to come up with anything to impeach him.

01:19:48.940 Just like Ann Arbor at University of Michigan.

01:19:51.180 They were having a march calling for the impeachment of him.

01:19:53.720 And I'm like, OK, what did he do?

01:19:55.880 He tweets on Twitter too much?

01:19:57.680 I mean, I get that.

01:19:58.560 I don't like the stuff he puts on Twitter.

01:20:00.340 But that's not a cause for impeachment.

01:20:02.660 It's because he speaks his mind.

01:20:04.740 He's 70.

01:20:05.740 Come on.

01:20:06.960 People will say and do anything as they get older.

01:20:09.580 They don't have a filter.

01:20:10.760 I just don't.

01:20:14.100 I think they're going to just keep trying to dog him until maybe they try to dig something

01:20:18.100 up or cause him to do something.

01:20:19.960 They're just going to keep at it, I think, for the whole four years.

01:20:23.780 But if he can stay the course and not get himself into too much trouble, I think everything's

01:20:28.340 going to be fine.

01:20:30.500 Josh Brown, an advertising guy, said, regardless of what's going on there, we have bigger fish

01:20:35.240 to fry.

01:20:35.720 I think that the media for the past 20 years has been constantly talking about the wrong

01:20:39.660 things.

01:20:40.620 I want to know more about legislation that's trying to be passed and things like that.

01:20:44.160 I'm sick of hearing the drama of the politicians that has nothing to do with the people of

01:20:48.460 our country.

01:20:49.280 Let me ask you this.

01:20:54.360 Wouldn't it be better seeing that we don't have anything to say about this?

01:20:59.500 There is no new news.

01:21:00.760 This weekend was the first new news I have heard on the Russia thing in months.

01:21:05.720 Do you agree with that?

01:21:08.140 A few weeks, though.

01:21:09.480 Yeah.

01:21:09.900 It just feels like months.

01:21:11.440 Yeah.

01:21:12.740 But it's been a long time.

01:21:15.140 Instead of pounding this all the time, wouldn't it be better for somebody like the Washington

01:21:20.460 Post did during Watergate? 1.00

01:21:23.480 Shut your fat mouth until you have something. 1.00

01:21:26.720 And then just investigate it. 1.00

01:21:28.560 And then when you have something, then show what you've put together?

01:21:33.560 I mean, I certainly agree with that in a general philosophy.

01:21:37.040 I mean, that does appear to be what they did here, right?

01:21:40.120 I mean, they...

01:21:40.780 The New York Times did on this.

01:21:42.120 On this particular story.

01:21:43.040 Yeah, in this particular story.

01:21:44.200 It does seem to be the approach.

01:21:44.680 Yes.

01:21:44.900 Because he's obviously already confirmed the details of the report.

01:21:49.100 So...

01:21:49.620 And look, I think it's more successful, right?

01:21:52.100 I think the average person who...

01:21:54.800 Look, obviously there's people who are essentially part of the administration, and there's a bunch

01:21:58.900 of people on the left that are in the resist movement, basically telling you in advance

01:22:03.000 everything he does they're not going to like.

01:22:04.680 But for people who are out of those two groups and are looking at this honestly, like, you

01:22:09.220 look at this and you say, okay, well, he's confirming it.

01:22:12.740 They reported something.

01:22:14.300 Donald Trump Jr. has confirmed what they've reported.

01:22:16.680 So we at least know that that part is true.

01:22:19.780 The problem is, is that news is the cheapest kind of entertainment television to do this in

01:22:26.800 reality shows.

01:22:27.960 There's no real script writers or, you know, that just can't just churn stuff out because

01:22:34.280 it's the news.

01:22:35.340 And then you put people on who want to be on the news because they're trying to keep

01:22:41.200 their image out there and try to speak to their folks.

01:22:44.120 So it's so cheap to make daily television.

01:22:48.320 It's the cheapest form of daily television to make.

01:22:51.200 And you could make a lot of money if you can just keep the ratings up.

01:22:55.660 So what happens is they give you a piece of news and then for three hours on my show,

01:23:02.320 three hours on Rush, three hours on Mark, three hours here, three hours there, 24 hours on

01:23:07.540 the, all of the news channels, we're all just taking this one story and dissecting it now

01:23:13.580 for a week.

01:23:14.720 And so that's where the fake news comes in.

01:23:19.940 And I think in some cases, because if I say something, it's my opinion on it.

01:23:25.540 That's why I tried to really separate my opinion from the facts today.

01:23:28.880 Look, this is all we know.

01:23:31.320 Everything else I say is speculation.

01:23:34.300 I think it could be this.

01:23:35.880 I think it could be that the Russians are the big winners.

01:23:39.240 Maybe Donald Trump is playing this to, to rope the media around because it's good for

01:23:47.020 his, his base.

01:23:49.840 The media thinks it's going to be good for their base.

01:23:53.060 It probably is for their base, but it's not good for the country.

01:23:56.780 Well, that's all my opinion.

01:23:59.520 And what more do you need to hear?

01:24:01.320 Really?

01:24:01.880 Honestly, now that it all becomes inside baseball and you're just, it's all conjecture.

01:24:09.240 She said, uh, the dairy farmer, I, I, oh no, this is another guy.

01:24:14.300 This is the, um, uh, this one is going to Hillsdale college.

01:24:18.960 Listen to this.

01:24:19.780 I think any accusations of this caliber against the president have to be taken seriously, but

01:24:25.280 I don't know from everything I've been reading and hearing.

01:24:27.520 I don't know how much weight any of the accusations really hold.

01:24:31.040 There's not a lot of hard evidence to get Trump impeached like people are saying.

01:24:35.020 So I think it's blown out of proportion.

01:24:36.700 I think some of the news stations are honestly doing it just for ratings.

01:24:40.860 I get my news usually from Fox, but I look at CNN and other news sites just to see both

01:24:45.340 sides of it.

01:24:46.360 I don't want to base any of my claims or thoughts off of one side.

01:24:51.080 CNN is definitely like Trump needs to go.

01:24:54.060 Trump needs to get impeached. 1.00

01:24:55.580 Trump supporters suck. 1.00

01:24:57.140 And Fox is more. 1.00

01:24:58.980 Where's the evidence?

01:25:00.140 Why is, uh, why is he even getting accused of this when there's no real evidence to back

01:25:04.260 it up?

01:25:05.260 I think something definitely went on though, whether it was with Trump or people saying

01:25:09.800 it happened when Obama was still in office, there definitely some sort of interference

01:25:14.000 that Russians, uh, had to do with something.

01:25:17.080 We have to figure this out.

01:25:18.900 Uh, Nancy longtime resident.

01:25:20.820 She said, I'm sick of hearing about Russia.

01:25:23.480 Let's get on and, uh, let's get, uh, let it go.

01:25:27.560 And let's get moving on.

01:25:29.620 The media is the one that's propagating it.

01:25:32.200 They just won't let it die.

01:25:33.420 They just kept bringing it up again and again and again.

01:25:36.020 There are things that are much more important right now.

01:25:38.640 And I'm over and done with this.

01:25:41.120 Candy Schultz said, I just don't know what's going on.

01:25:45.600 I don't have time to follow it.

01:25:46.800 Her name is Candy.

01:25:47.860 I don't have time to follow it.

01:25:49.400 I don't even have cable news or, or, uh, TV service from the things that I do know.

01:25:54.140 I was glad to see Trump get in office because I think Clinton would have been like madness

01:25:58.360 continuing.

01:25:59.560 I think that Trump was doing things that a lot of people didn't have the nerve to do,

01:26:02.940 so to speak, but I don't know what's going on with him in Russia or anything like that.

01:26:06.900 I really don't because I don't stay current on anything other than my own issues.

01:26:10.920 I, I never voted before even.

01:26:13.880 It's a responsible citizen.

01:26:15.260 I know.

01:26:15.660 I didn't even vote for Trump, but I support him.

01:26:18.160 I just think there's a certain amount of people who do vote.

01:26:21.640 I live in this world and take care of myself and my kids.

01:26:24.460 I work.

01:26:24.920 I'm not destitute and I'm not living off the map.

01:26:27.040 I have credit and things like that, but that's all in my little world.

01:26:30.880 Anything above and beyond.

01:26:32.160 Oh my gosh, I've got enough to deal with.

01:26:34.780 Quote, I put my faith in God.

01:26:36.680 God will pick what's right.

01:26:38.200 And I think he did.

01:26:39.940 And God's not registered to vote.

01:26:41.640 I don't, I don't know if you know that, but, uh, you know, but, uh, you know, and we can

01:26:47.200 all agree there are a certain amount of people who vote that is confirmed.

01:26:50.560 Science has confirmed that there is a certain amount of people who vote.

01:26:54.060 This is interesting because it goes to, um, I saw that, uh, get me Roger Stone documentary.

01:26:59.640 Yes, I did too.

01:27:00.560 You did too.

01:27:01.080 Oof.

01:27:01.700 It's an interesting one, I will say.

01:27:03.440 And, you know, they obviously Roger Stone, a very close advisor for Trump for a zillion

01:27:07.240 years. 0.74

01:27:08.240 More known for the dirty trickster of Nixon. 0.99

01:27:10.680 I mean, he is the dirty trickster. 0.98

01:27:13.160 Right. 0.84

01:27:13.600 Um, however, it was interesting watching this because he's interviewed in it.

01:27:17.920 So he's telling you what he thinks about these things.

01:27:21.000 One of the things he mentioned was something that we heard as the campaign started with

01:27:26.140 Trump.

01:27:26.860 People were talking about how Trump had no chance.

01:27:29.220 Uh, and one of the arguments was, well, they've seen him on the apprentice for a million

01:27:33.520 years and he looks very competent and he's well lit.

01:27:37.060 And, uh, and he looks like he makes the right decision every single time.

01:27:42.220 I always want a president who's well lit.

01:27:44.240 Don't you?

01:27:44.820 Yeah.

01:27:45.140 That's, that's, that's my number one.

01:27:47.360 How do you mean lit?

01:27:48.280 Yeah.

01:27:48.580 Right.

01:27:48.880 Jeffy.

01:27:49.340 Again, and to use, uh, Rogers, I think it was Roger Stone's word was the, the unsophisticates.

01:27:56.620 The unsophisticates in our society do not differentiate between politics and entertainment.

01:28:01.300 That was his quote.

01:28:03.040 I thought, what an interesting perspective that is because he, what he saw most people,

01:28:08.880 the candies of the world, right?

01:28:11.060 Look at this and say, this is just another thing.

01:28:14.440 The Red Sox play the Yankees tonight, tomorrow night, we got a Trump Clinton election and they 0.96

01:28:18.720 just see it as, oh, and by the way, the bachelor, is it going to pick, uh, the crazy blonde or 0.99

01:28:23.500 the, uh, the, the not as hot, but kind of sensible brunette. 0.94

01:28:27.320 And so they all look at this the same way for the crazy blonde. 0.94

01:28:30.640 You got to go crazy blonde, especially if you're a reality show, because then they'll 1.00

01:28:33.260 always call you back for another, you know, all-star episode.

01:28:35.880 If you don't marry the person, that's obviously key here.

01:28:38.060 You don't marry the first one. 0.63

01:28:39.820 But beyond that, uh, people look at these things with the same, the same passion and

01:28:45.660 the same importance.

01:28:46.880 It's not the most important thing in their life.

01:28:48.860 It's something they kind of have a team on, but it's not that big of a deal.

01:28:52.600 And when you try to dissect these things with actual rational points, as Stone argues

01:28:58.820 throughout the documentary, this is not about policy.

01:29:02.280 It's not about any of the things that we talk about for the majority of people.

01:29:06.580 So I read an interesting book, um, over the weekend called Authenticity.

01:29:11.940 So is this number nine?

01:29:12.940 No, it's number eight.

01:29:14.160 Number eight.

01:29:14.540 Number eight.

01:29:15.240 Eight or nine.

01:29:16.220 Um, and I, I, I want to share that with you because it's, it goes to this and it goes

01:29:21.100 to what hit the hell is happening in our society.

01:29:24.520 How did we get here with fake news?

01:29:28.860 I can tie fake news directly to big brother and survivor.

01:29:35.740 It's a fascinating look at what's happened to us over the last 20 years and how we got

01:29:42.900 to this position.

01:29:44.120 It, uh, is really, it's a strong, a pretty strong case that we are searching for something

01:29:52.520 authentic and we don't know of anything that actually is authentic.

01:29:57.740 We'll give that to you here in a second.

01:29:59.160 Also a new climate study that is out that is, oh, so satisfying.

01:30:03.300 We'll give that to you here in just a second.

01:30:05.580 Our sponsor this half hour is a gold line.

01:30:08.360 Um, so we are testing the THAAD missile defense, uh, as North Korea, uh, starts to, uh, get

01:30:17.440 a little more hot and heavy earlier this month, Russia and China in a joint statement called

01:30:23.500 on the U S to immediately halt deployment of the THAAD in South Korea.

01:30:29.220 Why would they do that?

01:30:31.800 The statement in, uh, said Washington was using North Korea as a, uh, pretext to expand its

01:30:38.240 military infrastructure in Asia and risked upsetting the strategic balance of power in the region.

01:30:44.180 So now we're going to test this.

01:30:47.000 We're testing it in North Korea and we also are testing it in Alaska.

01:30:51.500 Um, just to make sure that we can shoot a ballistic missile out of the sky.

01:30:58.020 How is Russia?

01:30:59.540 How is China going to respond to this when we tested in North Korea?

01:31:04.320 God only knows.

01:31:08.000 Um, but boy, everything is up in the air and the best thing you can do for an investment

01:31:16.120 right now, I think, imagine if I said to you, Hey, if you invest in this stock, they are going

01:31:22.180 to make sure that you don't lose any money.

01:31:25.640 And this isn't like regular stock.

01:31:28.160 This stock can't ever go to zero.

01:31:30.060 It's never like, Oh, it's, they went out of business.

01:31:33.360 So invest right now, because in a year from now, you're guaranteed to have at least the

01:31:39.680 same amount of money that you put in because they're going to make it up with extra cash.

01:31:45.360 Imagine saying that you would, of course you would buy that stock.

01:31:48.620 You'd go in your 401k and you'd transfer all of your 401k to that.

01:31:52.520 That is the deal that a gold line is making right now.

01:31:56.880 They have a system for as little as $2,500.

01:32:00.820 You'll get three months of price protection all the way up to a year's worth of protection

01:32:05.520 for an investment of $25,000.

01:32:08.300 You put $25,000 into gold with gold line.

01:32:11.260 If the price of gold is down a year from now, they will make it up in gold.

01:32:17.360 So it's not like making it up an extra stock even because stock is paper.

01:32:21.280 This is actual currency.

01:32:23.540 This is, this never goes to zero.

01:32:26.160 Gold line.

01:32:27.400 Call them right now.

01:32:28.740 Make sure you read their important risk information.

01:32:30.780 The world is a scary, treacherous place.

01:32:34.800 God only knows where your 401k is a year from now.

01:32:39.320 Where will gold be a year from now?

01:32:41.420 Don't need to worry.

01:32:42.520 You won't lose any money when you get the price guarantee.

01:33:14.520 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:33:16.100 888-727-BECK.

01:33:18.760 I'm going to point something out that I read in this book, Authenticity, this weekend, that it will blow your mind.

01:33:29.200 How we're on the search for something authentic, something real, fake news, fake news, fake news.

01:33:35.620 Wait until you hear some perspective on why we're feeling this way.

01:33:41.680 You will understand why apartment buildings are going for so much if they have exposed brick and a concrete wall.

01:33:51.220 That's the new style.

01:33:54.240 Just a concrete wall.

01:33:56.380 And as I'm...

01:33:57.760 A concrete wall?

01:33:58.500 Yeah, yeah.

01:33:59.180 Really?

01:33:59.640 Oh, yeah.

01:34:00.020 It was big.

01:34:00.960 I didn't know that was a new thing.

01:34:02.200 Big money.

01:34:03.140 Huh.

01:34:03.380 And you'll understand it when I share this with you.

01:34:06.800 Also, some news on Ann Coulter and global warming.

01:34:11.880 Let's go for the global warming update.

01:34:13.260 This is so fantastic.

01:34:15.320 It's a peer-reviewed...

01:34:16.760 And I love how they emphasize this is a peer-reviewed study because that's what you always hear from the global warmest.

01:34:23.460 It says almost all of the supposed warming is coming from scientists adjusting the temperatures.

01:34:31.600 And we've talked about before how they go back and they adjust temperatures.

01:34:35.440 Now, what do you...

01:34:36.640 Why are you adjusting temperatures from the 1940s?

01:34:40.300 Right.

01:34:40.940 How do you know today in 2017 what the temperature was on July 10th in 1943?

01:34:49.440 You don't.

01:34:50.420 You don't.

01:34:51.120 They probably knew then, but you don't know now.

01:34:54.400 Okay.

01:34:55.040 You don't know now.

01:34:55.860 And this is one of the things that...

01:34:57.640 Because people have...

01:34:58.200 I've never seen it compiled like this before.

01:35:00.760 There have been...

01:35:01.540 You know, skeptics have pointed this idea out before.

01:35:04.260 That what they do is not necessarily adjust the current temperatures higher to get more warming.

01:35:12.080 Although they have done some of this.

01:35:13.420 They've done some of that.

01:35:13.800 According to this study, they have done that too.

01:35:15.620 One of the things is they go back and they make the old temperatures colder.

01:35:19.960 Right.

01:35:20.440 So it looks like it's warmed more from back then to today.

01:35:25.100 Now, they show...

01:35:26.100 Of course, the 30s and 40s were hot.

01:35:28.040 They were really warm periods.

01:35:30.120 Warm decades.

01:35:30.780 And so now we're making them cooler.

01:35:33.920 They're not as hot as they once were.

01:35:35.620 And the important thing here is the rate of the warming.

01:35:37.600 Because the rate of the warming is something that they can...

01:35:40.260 You know, it's not even how much it's warmed.

01:35:42.340 It's how...

01:35:42.820 What is the rate?

01:35:43.720 So how much per decade?

01:35:45.280 So they can extrapolate that to make global warming look intensely horrible if the rate is fast.

01:35:51.560 If the rate is slow, it's not as big of a deal.

01:35:53.640 And when they're talking about hundreds and, in some cases, thousands of years, it makes a big difference.

01:35:58.820 But you look at the difference between the 1980 chart of temperatures and the 2015 chart of temperatures.

01:36:06.400 They reproduce every single chart all against each other.

01:36:09.740 And you're talking, you know, almost all the warming is because of this.

01:36:15.480 Because of the adjustments.

01:36:16.860 Holy cow. 0.89

01:36:17.580 And they said it's almost never adjusted up in the 40s or down in the current temperatures that they're adjusting.

01:36:25.680 And they show the charts.

01:36:26.440 It's always the other way around.

01:36:27.400 It's really amazing.

01:36:28.280 We are what?

01:36:30.980 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:34.540 Mercury.

01:36:38.740 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:41.100 Did our claims of fake news actually begin to be kindled in 1991?

01:36:55.620 In 1991, the Phil Donahue Show was replaced, you know, by whom?

01:37:05.460 Springer?

01:37:06.280 Springer.

01:37:06.880 Yeah.

01:37:07.100 Yeah.

01:37:07.840 1991, Jerry Springer replaced the Phil Donahue Show.

01:37:11.440 A few months later, a new format, a new show went on the air on MTV.

01:37:17.480 And it was The Real World.

01:37:19.700 Oh, yeah.

01:37:20.500 And reality television was born.

01:37:23.340 Out of The Real World came Big Brother, came Survivor, and all of the reality television shows that followed.

01:37:32.120 And then the most successful television show in reality TV was American Idol.

01:37:39.340 So now we're in the mid-90s, and we have American Idol.

01:37:44.000 American Idol was a reality show, but again, tightly edited and everything else.

01:37:50.980 And even that...

01:37:52.120 I don't think that started in the 90s, though, right?

01:37:54.060 Yeah, it did.

01:37:54.500 It was like 2005 or 2005.

01:37:56.120 Maybe late 90s, but it was...

01:37:58.060 Was it?

01:37:58.500 Was it that late?

01:37:59.200 Oh, yeah, it was, wasn't it?

01:38:00.220 We were talking about it in the early 2000s.

01:38:02.600 Yeah, you're right.

01:38:02.760 Yeah, you're right.

01:38:03.260 Carrie Underwood, I think, was the first winner.

01:38:05.060 You're right.

01:38:05.900 So anyway, so...

01:38:06.900 No, Kelly Clarkson.

01:38:07.820 Kelly Clarkson, yeah.

01:38:08.960 So...

01:38:09.280 Carrie Underwood was later.

01:38:10.400 So, um...

01:38:12.180 We got the Carrie Underwood and the Kelly...

01:38:13.800 I think we got the Carrie Underwood world, and I'm happy.

01:38:16.060 So, American Idol became even so packaged that when somebody came through that was real, they became a star.

01:38:26.300 Okay?

01:38:26.680 They're all supposed to be real.

01:38:27.880 But when somebody really real pops in, let me just say this name, William Hung.

01:38:36.200 Remember?

01:38:37.080 Oh, yeah.

01:38:37.740 Remember?

01:38:38.080 What did he do?

01:38:39.340 It was a terrible audition.

01:38:40.740 Yeah, and she bangs, she bangs. 1.00

01:38:42.500 Wasn't that what it was?

01:38:43.060 Yeah, that's right.

01:38:43.540 Yeah, I think that was.

01:38:44.000 Okay, so William Hung was actually real.

01:38:48.680 So we are beginning to feel the, ah, I want something more real.

01:38:55.680 I want real.

01:38:58.260 PBS even gets into this with Colonial House, real life, real tough.

01:39:03.900 History made them famous, but Ken Burns makes them real.

01:39:07.660 All of the programs that came on, the Iron Chef, Blind Date, Punk'd, Trading Spaces, everything that is reality television.

01:39:19.320 Real people, real stories.

01:39:22.360 Except they really weren't, were they?

01:39:23.680 Except they weren't.

01:39:24.760 And many of them were scripted.

01:39:26.420 I want to give you, I want to, I want to, I want to read something to you.

01:39:30.160 Just a day in the life.

01:39:32.420 And there's only a couple of things in here that I think are a stretch.

01:39:36.980 Alarm goes off at 8.15 a.m. on a Saturday morning, and Eddie hits his snooze button on the John Deere tractor alarm.

01:39:44.640 With authentic John Deere tractor and barnyard sounds.

01:39:49.160 When the animal bay again at 8.25, he switches on the radio.

01:39:52.800 The station glides into Joe McBride's Keepin' It Real.

01:39:57.560 Wife Brenda beats Eddie to the shower of their large, recently remodeled faux marble bathroom. 1.00

01:40:03.180 She washes her hair with Aussie Real Volume Shampoo.

01:40:06.880 Brenda and Eddie are back together?

01:40:08.040 And treats it with Real Volume Conditioner.

01:40:10.960 Having it colored a week ago with L'Oreal Preference No. 9 Natural Blonde.

01:40:15.560 Because, well, she's worth it.

01:40:17.440 After relinquishing the shower to Eddie and his Get Real Natural Lavender Shampoo,

01:40:23.700 Brenda blow dries her hair and adds some Aussie Real Volume Setting Whip. 1.00

01:40:29.000 Then she slides on her cotton t-shirt from Real Clothes over her Hanes Authentic Tagless t-shirt

01:40:35.560 and dons a pair of Ralph Lauren jeans, the authentic denim outfitter.

01:40:40.260 Done showering, Eddie quickly towel dries his hair, combs some of his Just For Men hair color,

01:40:46.100 natural, real black, into his increasingly salt and peppered beard 0.68

01:40:50.800 and puts on his faded glory shirt, authentic style.

01:40:55.800 Downstairs, Brenda cooks up some scrambled egg beaters.

01:40:58.740 99% real egg whites with real bacon bits.

01:41:03.360 Real Hormel bacon adds real taste.

01:41:08.140 Bacon bits are from nature, they just come out in bit form.

01:41:10.820 While Eddie pours a bowl of his post-blueberry morning cereal with real wild blueberries.

01:41:16.820 They drink Simply Orange Grove made orange juice made with bits of real orange.

01:41:22.140 They turn on the TV and watch CNN headline news, real news, real fast.

01:41:27.540 While the Gloria Jeans coffee, authentic mocha java, brews.

01:41:33.580 They agree that after the kids are up, she'll head to the grocery store while he runs some errands

01:41:38.920 and they get started for some early Christmas shopping.

01:41:42.160 At Giant Eagle, Brenda first visits the wine department and she picks up a bottle of wine

01:41:46.660 and a 12-pack of Coors, real Rocky Mountain beer.

01:41:51.200 And some Bud Light, fresh, smooth, real.

01:41:54.400 Then she loads up on the fruity cereal.

01:41:58.480 General Mills, Berry Bust Cheerios with real sliced strawberries.

01:42:02.680 Kellogg's Rice Krispies, also with real strawberries.

01:42:06.880 Kellogg's Rice Krispies and Post Honey Bunches of Oats with real bananas.

01:42:12.020 And because the kids love it, gosh darn it, Coco Puffs Milk and Cereal Bars.

01:42:17.100 The nutrition of a bowl of cereal with real milk.

01:42:20.760 Meanwhile, Eddie makes his first stop at Office Max just to refill the Hewlett-Packard black ink cartridge.

01:42:29.700 HP, real life imaging system for the home office.

01:42:34.400 Brenda strolls the aisles filling her cart Betty Crocker au gratin potatoes with 100% real Idaho potatoes.

01:42:40.960 Stovetop stuffing mix with real chicken broth.

01:42:44.280 Pepperidge Farm goldfish crackers baked with real cheese.

01:42:47.640 Brits Bits Sandwiches made with real peanut butter.

01:42:52.060 Oscar Mayer Brundischwager, whatever.

01:42:54.880 Authentic Prego hearty meat sauce.

01:42:57.680 Authentic Italian sauce.

01:42:59.640 And some sweet Italian sausage.

01:43:02.860 Real Italian taste.

01:43:05.140 Oh yeah, and a bottle of Ditka's real pork chop sauce.

01:43:08.800 Da sauce.

01:43:09.420 Next stop for Eddie is PetSmart.

01:43:12.760 He grabs some Pounce Cat Treats with real seafood.

01:43:17.300 And CatSip, real milk.

01:43:19.880 As well as some Alpo with real liver.

01:43:22.580 And sausages with real Italian aroma.

01:43:27.560 And why not a Rubber Ruffs?

01:43:30.560 Real and rugged, the dog toy says.

01:43:34.380 Kraft, Kraftfoods.com, real help in real time.

01:43:39.180 Enjoy some considerable share of the cart today.

01:43:42.040 Kraft Mayo and Hot and Spicy, made with real mayonnaise.

01:43:45.940 Kraft Easy Cheese Spreads, made with real Kraft cheese.

01:43:49.660 The mayonnaise directly from nature.

01:43:51.620 Right.

01:43:51.980 And Kraft Velveeta shells and cheese.

01:43:54.240 Real Velveeta cheese sauce.

01:43:56.540 Yum.

01:43:57.540 Quick jaunt to Joanne's Fabrics and Crafts is next for Eddie.

01:44:00.520 He picks up that Modern Optician's Instant Antiquing Set.

01:44:04.780 Create authentic rust finishes in just minutes for Brenda.

01:44:09.340 He wonders, what for?

01:44:11.080 Meanwhile, Brenda chooses some Quaker toastables made with real fruit.

01:44:14.960 He goes on.

01:44:15.420 The grocery store goes on for a long, long time.

01:44:17.560 I was going to say, I think we know what words test well.

01:44:19.980 Right.

01:44:20.620 Real and authentic.

01:44:21.600 Okay, so what this is.

01:44:23.080 And he goes into all the toys.

01:44:24.240 When he's buying the toys.

01:44:25.120 This goes on for page after page after page after page after page.

01:44:27.900 And the book is what?

01:44:31.280 Authenticity.

01:44:32.220 And it is our search for authenticity.

01:44:35.220 And it talks about how nothing is authentic.

01:44:39.340 There's real fake, real real, and fake fakes.

01:44:47.120 It's an authentic replica.

01:44:49.160 Exactly.

01:44:50.000 Made of heavy metal plastic.

01:44:51.140 And how we are, how we have dismantled our society to where nothing is real.

01:45:02.920 To where Disney is authentic.

01:45:08.300 Wait a minute.

01:45:10.460 Disney is authentic.

01:45:12.880 It wasn't supposed to be even.

01:45:14.180 Really?

01:45:14.460 That wasn't the design.

01:45:15.460 It was a fantasy.

01:45:17.360 And when you add to this, the fake conversations we have with each other.

01:45:22.160 Where you can be sitting across the table from somebody and you're texting one another on a phone.

01:45:26.440 Yes.

01:45:26.580 You're not even having an actual conversation.

01:45:29.360 I mean, my kids never call their friends.

01:45:33.040 Never call them.

01:45:34.060 And say, you know, it's always like, hey, would you ask so-and-so if they can pick you up instead of you picking them up?

01:45:41.360 Yeah, okay.

01:45:42.360 I call them right now?

01:45:44.220 No, I texted them already.

01:45:46.020 Why don't you pick up the phone and call them for that immediate response?

01:45:51.560 They won't.

01:45:52.040 They won't.

01:45:52.460 They just won't do it.

01:45:53.120 They won't.

01:45:53.320 They don't do it.

01:45:54.220 Right.

01:45:54.760 For whatever reason, they can't handle an actual conversation.

01:45:58.200 Or it's just easier for them.

01:45:59.360 Or it's just easier for them.

01:46:00.680 Yeah, text does do something nicely.

01:46:02.400 Yeah, I mean, you don't get locked into a conversation with anybody.

01:46:05.320 Yeah.

01:46:05.800 But, so the point of this is, is I'm looking for what's wrong with us, okay?

01:46:15.500 And I've been looking for our way out.

01:46:18.660 And so that's why I'm kind of studying authenticity now.

01:46:22.420 Because, you know, I'm thinking the fake news.

01:46:27.740 Okay, so what is it that people really want?

01:46:31.120 And people say they want one thing, but they actually don't.

01:46:37.080 They don't actually want that.

01:46:38.760 They're looking for something authentic.

01:46:41.440 And that goes beyond the news.

01:46:44.180 This is happening because we have deconstructed everything.

01:46:50.460 This really kind of goes to a book that I'm writing, and maybe will come out next year or this fall,

01:46:56.320 on the deconstruction of Western civilization.

01:47:00.140 There was something that happened in the late 1950s that I don't think anybody knows about.

01:47:05.260 And it's all on the record.

01:47:06.420 You just have to be a really evil socialist progressive to know about it.

01:47:12.140 And I don't think 99% of the progressives don't know about this.

01:47:16.160 And it was all, how do we deconstruct the West?

01:47:20.420 And we're doing it right now.

01:47:22.260 And we're all helping.

01:47:25.520 And when you, you know, it's interesting.

01:47:28.920 I know the people who started those reality shows.

01:47:32.420 I know the people.

01:47:35.220 And two of the people that started them, they're both doing their own thing.

01:47:44.180 For instance, Mark Burnett, he's doing all of the Jesus stuff.

01:47:49.520 He's trying to put, he's trying to dump goodwill into society.

01:47:54.160 The other guy, I'm trying to remember what he's doing.

01:47:56.820 Just talked to him a couple weeks ago.

01:47:58.400 So he's doing something else, trying to dump the goodwill in.

01:48:03.500 Both of them will say, I did some damage.

01:48:08.660 They both recognize that a survivor probably wasn't a good idea.

01:48:14.420 I don't know that he would say that.

01:48:15.680 But I mean, the intent of it is different than sometimes the way society takes it.

01:48:19.800 Correct.

01:48:20.460 They didn't see what they were doing.

01:48:23.840 Just like I didn't see what I was doing.

01:48:25.500 You don't see it while you're doing.

01:48:27.360 You think you're okay.

01:48:28.400 Then you get behind it a bit and you're like, oh man, that's not what we intended.

01:48:34.080 Aren't we up to about the 193rd season of Survivor?

01:48:36.820 Yes.

01:48:37.280 I think it's still on.

01:48:38.120 I think it's still on.

01:48:38.780 It's still on.

01:48:39.560 It's still on.

01:48:40.480 They did Survivor Pocatello about three weeks ago.

01:48:43.440 How are you going to survive the potatoes?

01:48:45.500 I don't know.

01:48:45.720 Is it weird that the book Authenticity proves this point by a fake story about a grocery store?

01:48:52.440 Which we know is fake because Brenda and Eddie had had it already by the summer of 75.

01:48:57.500 From the highest and the lowest to the end of the show for the rest of their lives.

01:49:00.880 And what was that?

01:49:01.880 Where did that take place?

01:49:02.920 An authentic Italian restaurant.

01:49:04.820 That's right.

01:49:06.100 That's right.

01:49:07.400 But that's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie.

01:49:09.120 I can't tell you more because I heard it already.

01:49:11.100 But here we are.

01:49:12.120 We have Brenda and Eddie goodbye.

01:49:13.800 That has to be intentional.

01:49:15.580 No one pairs Brenda and Eddie together.

01:49:18.040 Brenda and Eddie are only together in that song.

01:49:20.160 There's no other Brenda and Eddies that have ever been together.

01:49:22.300 Ever.

01:49:22.720 Ever.

01:49:23.060 I don't know what we're talking about.

01:49:23.800 This is one I don't know the reference.

01:49:25.220 Are you kidding me?

01:49:25.860 Are you kidding me?

01:49:26.660 It seems from an Italian restaurant.

01:49:28.220 Billy Joel.

01:49:28.820 Billy Joel.

01:49:30.020 You do know it.

01:49:31.220 Come on.

01:49:31.960 I know it just not that well.

01:49:33.400 Yeah.

01:49:34.000 Not that well.

01:49:34.440 It's an all time classic.

01:49:35.180 You like Billy Joel.

01:49:36.460 That was a hit.

01:49:36.920 I do.

01:49:37.400 I'm glad I'm not standing up.

01:49:38.500 That was a hit.

01:49:39.380 That's an album track.

01:49:41.320 That's a hit.

01:49:42.320 No, it's not a hit.

01:49:43.480 Look it up.

01:49:44.360 Please tell me it's not a hit.

01:49:46.500 Everybody knows it.

01:49:47.580 Everybody knows that. 0.63

01:49:49.020 You freak.

01:49:49.620 How do you not know that? 1.00

01:49:50.740 You are a freak. 1.00

01:49:51.540 I mean, I heard the song. 0.99

01:49:53.060 I just didn't know the reference that well.

01:49:55.460 Oh, my gosh.

01:49:56.380 As soon as I heard Brenda.

01:49:58.220 That's the only thing I can think of.

01:49:59.800 All right.

01:50:00.760 Could we tell one more story of being inauthentic and an amazing inauthentic story that I just 1.00

01:50:08.940 can't believe somebody was this stupid to do? 0.99

01:50:12.180 We'll give that to you here in just a second. 1.00

01:50:13.920 First, let me tell you about American financing.

01:50:16.800 What makes American financing different is the salary based mortgage consultants.

01:50:22.040 This means that they they're not getting kickbacks from the bank.

01:50:26.260 They're not getting the people who are trying to, you know, it drives me crazy.

01:50:30.480 I hope the bank gives me the loan.

01:50:32.520 They're not giving it to you.

01:50:33.720 They're selling it to you.

01:50:35.420 You're paying a lot of money for them to give you that money.

01:50:40.560 They're not giving it to you.

01:50:44.040 The competition to get your loan is steep and so steep that what these banks do and what

01:50:51.940 the money lenders do is they get the salespeople and they say, we're going to give you a percentage

01:50:57.460 if you can sell this particular loan because it's better for the bank.

01:51:01.900 So American financing, they don't do that.

01:51:05.760 The people who are on the phone actually work for you.

01:51:08.780 So it's a more character driven in-house loan process where they're trying to do the right

01:51:16.060 thing for you.

01:51:17.640 American financing, you're not going to meet other people like this.

01:51:21.840 Reverse mortgages are a good way to increase monthly cash flow with no mortgage payment.

01:51:26.880 They're now offering reverse mortgages.

01:51:28.620 You can still retain the ownership of your home, call for all of the details on that one

01:51:33.440 and make sure that you know exactly what that means.

01:51:37.640 Call their number, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or you can go online at AmericanFinancing.net.

01:51:47.020 That's AmericanFinancing.net.

01:51:58.620 888-727-BECK.

01:52:01.400 Mercury.

01:52:05.820 Glenn Beck Program.

01:52:07.440 Really interesting stuff.

01:52:08.700 We're running out of time.

01:52:09.460 I'm going to give you a short version of the story from Ann Coulter and then get a long

01:52:14.540 version because it's got some really amazing stuff about what was happening behind the

01:52:17.820 scenes with Megyn Kelly with the Trump administration.

01:52:21.260 But here's the Ann Coulter.

01:52:23.140 This is amazing.

01:52:23.780 Yeah, because you kind of get that idea of what happened with Ann Coulter.

01:52:26.660 She didn't seem like she was really on the Trump bandwagon for a while, then all of a

01:52:29.800 sudden was like hardcore on the Trump.

01:52:32.240 Yeah, wrote a book for him and everything.

01:52:33.640 And Trump we trust.

01:52:34.660 And now, seemingly is off the bandwagon a little bit, pissed off about the immigration 0.93

01:52:38.960 plan.

01:52:39.320 Why aren't they building the wall?

01:52:40.120 Why aren't they building the wall?

01:52:41.100 And she had written that his immigration plan was the greatest thing since the Magna Carta.

01:52:45.820 Magna Carta.

01:52:46.520 She said, I don't care if he aborts babies inside the White House if he passes his immigration 0.88

01:52:50.880 plan.

01:52:51.020 And it was like, who is this person like I mean, you know, whether you like Ann Coulter

01:52:54.600 or not, it was a strange stance for her saying this is the greatest thing since the Magna

01:52:58.440 Carta is pretty amazing.

01:53:00.300 So this is for the first time I've seen this reported when Trump came under fire because

01:53:03.300 his campaign hadn't produced a single policy paper.

01:53:05.880 Bannon arranged for number former advisor and Ann Coulter, the conservative pundit, to quickly

01:53:11.000 write a white paper on Trump's immigration policies.

01:53:13.660 When it was released, she tweeted it was the greatest political document since the Magna

01:53:18.980 Carta without disclosing she had written it.

01:53:21.140 That is unbelievable.

01:53:25.100 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
