00:00:14.260
The news that is important, that will actually affect our lives.
00:00:30.000
I will beat my drum, I have made my choice, we will overcome, cause we are one.
00:00:56.280
I am finding myself torn between what is lost and what we are about to find.
00:01:07.940
What is gone, the lost opportunities, and the opportunities on the horizon.
00:01:22.180
I want to talk to you about two children today.
00:01:26.280
This week, Charlie Gard would have been a year old.
00:01:33.520
It was a year ago this week that Connie Yates gave birth to Charlie.
00:01:38.940
Proud dad, Chris Gard, gathered him up and their belongings in the hospital room in England,
00:01:45.900
and the happy parents headed home with what they thought was a completely healthy, perfect baby boy.
00:01:51.340
Little did they know then, two months later, they would be rushing him back to the hospital.
00:01:59.320
It was last Friday, just a few days away from his first birthday,
00:02:06.840
that the valiant effort to save their precious son ended.
00:02:13.620
A nine-month struggle between the hospital and parents.
00:02:22.860
A hospital and a government with its heartless socialist health care system
00:02:28.540
that said, we are in charge of this child, you are not.
00:02:34.980
All the parents were asking for was a chance to save their baby.
00:02:52.220
Haven't we all had something happen with our family members or our children
00:02:57.500
where we have just said, Lord, give me a chance.
00:03:17.620
They weren't asking for anything from the hospital or the British government.
00:03:21.200
They had raised well over a million dollars to have Charlie enter a program here in the United States
00:03:26.080
for an experimental treatment that an American doctor said would help.
00:03:30.620
But they were stopped by the hospital at every turn.
00:03:38.120
They took their baby to the hospital for treatment.
00:03:41.840
And when the hospital said, it's time to give up hope,
00:03:45.440
all they asked was for the opportunity to have hope
00:03:50.320
and go someplace else at no cost to the taxpayer or to the hospital.
00:04:03.800
You cannot eject yourself from it because you will make the state look bad.
00:04:08.460
The fight to save Charlie's life was drawn out so long by the hospital and by the government
00:04:27.760
Now, the British authorities still think they did the right thing.
00:04:30.400
They still believe that they knew what was best for the infant.
00:04:41.220
I mean, at 11 months old, it's hard to fathom how dignity,
00:05:04.500
The hospital took the parents back to court again in the final hours of his life and said,
00:05:21.000
The parents begged, okay, then can we just stay with him the entire time?
00:05:31.900
In my opinion, the hospital was exacting a cost.
00:05:44.760
We told you from the beginning this child was ours, not yours.
00:05:50.120
And now, now you come to us and you want to be with him?
00:05:57.700
Set an example so no one else dares cross the state.
00:06:02.260
This is, this is a story that caught the attention of the Western world, not the Eastern world.
00:06:14.740
The Eastern world doesn't care about stuff like this.
00:06:44.900
I was working on a couple things last night for the show.
00:06:47.780
One of them was, was this and the, the other was the story that broke my heart yesterday.
00:06:59.060
And there were two songs that kept going through my head.
00:07:17.780
Yesterday's show, we, we introduced you to, to a, a woman named Amy.
00:07:26.400
It's this little teeny town just outside of the National Forest.
00:07:41.580
They've been taken from her because the state says that she's not smart enough.
00:07:54.160
I don't know what I expected when I spoke to Amy.
00:07:58.480
But for the state to say, you're not capable of taking care of your own child.
00:08:07.680
I expected somebody that, quite honestly, did not sound like this.
00:08:12.760
It's, it's, it's been hard, but it's worth it to get my story out there so that people know
00:08:19.960
that you can get your kids back as long as you just fight, fight for everything you have
00:08:30.600
I have a court-appointed attorney and an appeals attorney, but I would like to see if I could find someone
00:08:39.480
that's out of state that can better represent me.
00:08:45.020
Because all the attorneys and all of the state workers, they all live there in town, in this small little town,
00:08:56.340
She wants somebody who's neutral, somebody who will look at the facts.
00:09:03.900
I felt so horrible yesterday when I interviewed her.
00:09:17.280
America needs to have you step up and justify your motherhood.
00:09:22.720
And the moment she started to speak, when I said, tell me your story, and I heard who clearly she was,
00:09:35.140
I realized all of us, and yesterday, me, I had become a voice from the past.
00:09:45.920
You must all know half a dozen people at least, who are no use in this world,
00:09:53.460
Just put him there and say, sir or madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence?
00:10:00.840
If you can't justify your existence, if you're not pulling your weight in the social growth,
00:10:06.600
then, clearly, we cannot use the big organization of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive.
00:10:21.080
Oh, the famous playwright that everybody learns from progressive universities, how wonderful he was.
00:10:26.640
The guy who was the first to say, maybe we should have a gas chamber of sorts.
00:10:30.820
Maybe, as he's saying here, we ought to line people up once a year and say,
00:10:35.300
sir, madam, justify to us, society, your existence,
00:10:55.660
Show us the intellectuals, the people who are far smarter than you.
00:11:01.280
Justify that you should be allowed to have your baby.
00:11:09.940
A woman who is going to school for the last two years
00:11:36.720
So we're going to now protect every child that we say,
00:12:20.340
You remember the song End of the Innocence by Don Henley?
00:12:27.020
I know that became a big story about Ronald Reagan,
00:12:32.800
you know, because in the video there's one deal about,
00:46:55.400
way around and the state just believes that it's
00:47:25.880
especially someone who is working for the state.
00:47:30.260
It was so strange in the Charlie Gard controversy.
00:47:33.700
I went and I read, you know, British defenders of
00:47:40.360
And the best one that I found, the most intelligent
00:47:43.620
defense of what happened in Britain was, well, there's a
00:47:47.620
difference of opinion and someone has to decide because
00:47:50.540
after all, you know, the medical opinion is just as
00:47:57.160
And I thought, gee, I'm glad I live in America where
00:48:00.560
for the most part, you start out with a premise that the
00:48:05.000
parents, you know, are of course going to be the first to
00:48:10.100
decide because, you know, they're the parents and they
00:48:12.280
love their kids and know their kids more than the
00:48:14.520
And only in the exceptional case, only if there is some
00:48:17.900
neglect or abuse, as you say, do we step back from that
00:48:23.460
But it's that assumption that keeps us free from
00:48:30.120
So yesterday she was on and she said, I'm looking for an
00:48:42.340
Um, I'm not concerned about money because if this checks out
00:48:45.620
the way it's checking out to me, then we'll help her with
00:48:49.980
Um, are there institutions and are there attorneys out there
00:48:56.280
that are really well versed on this that can win against a
00:49:00.240
state that doesn't have to produce any evidence?
00:49:03.000
There is one group called, I think it's family defense
00:49:06.380
center, which has provided legal help to, uh, groups facing,
00:49:11.380
uh, CPS, uh, for what seemed to be bad reasons, but it's one
00:49:17.560
And what always amazes me is you've got big, uh, long
00:49:22.060
established legal defense groups for every other interest you
00:49:25.620
can name, you know, good interests, bad interests.
00:49:27.920
Uh, you know, there'll be a bunch of lawyers getting pro bono
00:49:30.900
credit with their law firms, but not in this one, you know,
00:49:35.760
I think it's based in Chicago that, uh, is, is trying to do
00:49:38.620
this, but I just wonder why you don't have something, if not
00:49:41.540
the size of the ACLU, then at least, you know, pretty darn big
00:49:45.240
group, uh, systematically looking out so that there is
00:49:49.420
someone, um, uh, you know, with, with the David's that are
00:49:53.340
the parents against the Goliath that are the CPS of
00:49:58.940
Talking to Walter Olson of the Cato Institute, what, what's
00:50:03.320
How close are they to permanently being shut out, um, and
00:50:10.960
According to the coverage, the state has been, um, begun
00:50:15.960
proceedings to cut off their parental rights permanently in
00:50:18.640
order to place the children for adoption with another family.
00:50:20.960
So that makes it sound like a lost call now or never, you
00:50:27.880
Um, and it probably starts out as a defense against severance of
00:50:32.260
rights, uh, before it even gets to the point of restoring
00:50:36.120
Um, so, uh, lawyers out there who may be listening, uh, that's the
00:50:41.600
Probably want to call earlier rather than later to find out if there's
00:50:52.140
And, uh, and thank you for caring and realizing the, the real true
00:51:08.320
Can you still get the email addresses that they gave yesterday on the air
00:51:13.040
and the, uh, the Facebook page or the website that they've put together?
00:51:17.980
This is a family that we are trying to help out and I, and we're working on
00:51:25.040
some things behind the scenes, but I just want to make sure that I haven't
00:51:28.240
missed anything on this, but it's all checking out.
00:51:33.900
Um, and, uh, but there's, there's, there's gotta be an attorney.
00:51:41.980
Um, we need, we need to know who the experts are.
00:51:45.220
We need to go and find somebody who can really win this.
00:51:50.400
Um, but I, I, the first thing that has to happen because we're running out of
00:51:54.620
time on this, this is going to end by September.
00:52:07.080
But the, the first thing that really has to happen is you have to spread the word on this
00:52:18.640
There's a story at glennbeck.com from yesterday.
00:52:21.300
There is a, um, uh, Walter Olson from Cato Institute.
00:52:28.540
Um, you just need to, you need to spread the word on this and get people to understand the
00:52:43.360
If they come and take this child away, these two children, which they have and gotten away
00:52:49.700
with it, if they can do this to Amy without any charges, without neglect, without any abuse,
00:52:57.280
with a clean house, with a girl who sure sounds like a lot of, a lot better than a lot of parents
00:53:06.900
that I have seen and heard elsewhere, they can just come and take her children away from her.
00:53:13.760
And then she can't defend herself because they're going to hide behind privacy.
00:53:51.440
The first thing that has to happen is we need a lot of people to know this story and care.
00:54:04.920
Alan Greenspan said the other day, we should be worried about the growing bond bubble.
00:54:10.540
He said, quote, the real problem is that when bond market bubble collapses, long-term interest rates will rise.
00:54:16.220
We're moving into a different phase of the economy to stagflation we haven't seen since the 1970s.
00:54:28.000
There was another story today that, you know, the big Wall Street movers and shakers,
00:54:32.880
they're all moving into a position to bet against the bond market.
00:54:49.140
Make sure you're making your money while people are losing their pensions.
00:54:57.980
Nothing better than making money on the destruction of cities and pensions and investments for other people who have worked hard their whole life.
00:55:13.020
Make all the money you can because that's all that matters.
00:55:23.580
Here's a company that will guarantee that you won't lose a dime on your investment.
00:55:30.140
If gold goes down in the next three months and you have invested $2,500 or more, $2,500 for the next three months.
00:55:37.920
If gold goes down, they'll give you more gold to make it up.
00:55:42.640
You take money out of your stock market or wherever, your 401k, and you put $25,000 into an investment with Goldline.
00:55:52.680
They will guarantee that you won't lose any money on that investment.
00:55:56.740
If the price of gold goes down, they will make it up.
00:56:06.680
Everybody else is trying to gouge people's eyes out and just make a buck, make a buck, make a buck.
00:56:46.460
We've just got a briefing that we'll digest and then present some of it to you tomorrow.
00:57:17.640
One, because her mother was the child care person with the first two.
00:57:25.220
So those children, she didn't get custody of those children.
00:58:04.420
The president has just signed the Russian Sanctions Act.
00:58:25.860
Now, I've brought a couple of stories to you today.
00:58:29.880
The lead, the thrust of this show today has been, for me,
00:58:39.000
do I just give up and walk away and we all just leave, go to the mountains, go do something, go...
00:58:53.860
You know, it's like, if the doctor told you today, you have a terminal illness and you only have X number of months to live,
00:59:03.300
would you go in and do the same thing every day exactly the way, or would you make some changes in your life?
00:59:11.560
Because I feel as though the doctor is telling me, world, not America, world, humans, you have a terminal disease and not much longer to live.
00:59:26.720
The disease, I don't know the Latin name, but it's stupidity.
00:59:33.060
And stupidity is raging through your system right now.
00:59:40.500
It's in your glands, it's in your livers, it's in your eyes, definitely in your tongue.
00:59:48.020
If we remove it, all that's left is a little piece, possibly, of your scalp.
00:59:53.680
So, should we go back to work, or should we just forget it and start doing something that is meaningful to you?
01:00:09.140
Because I could tell you all the bad news that's happening, you know, all around the world, blah, blah, blah, you know all of it.
01:00:14.160
And I could tell you, and we could dwell, and we could mock, and we could make fun of it, and we could feel superior that we're right and they're wrong, but that does nothing.
01:00:24.960
Still, stupidity is raging through our system and eating it.
01:00:33.920
I could tell you, as I did today, about the hipsters in Brooklyn who are now refusing to have their dogs vaccinated
01:00:41.400
because they're afraid that their dogs will become autistic.
01:00:45.960
I hadn't thought of that possibility until these really genius hipsters in Brooklyn who are so woke.
01:00:57.640
I didn't even think that a dog could get autism.
01:01:01.640
But now, if I may, look at it in a different way.
01:01:27.060
After all the years, still doesn't talk to you.
01:01:36.600
Although there is absolutely nothing to ever say that dogs could or would ever get autism.
01:01:54.860
So I want to go to two places that people look to for credibility.
01:02:05.540
And I just want to ask you, which one has more credibility?
01:02:19.960
He and his wife used to lead an activist group against the evils of rap lyrics.
01:02:35.340
And here he's going to talk to a guy who is a 50-year crabber that has lived on the Chesapeake Bay.
01:02:42.320
Now what they're arguing about, so you know, is has sea level risen?
01:02:48.820
Now, just so you can put this into context, Al Gore claims that, yes, the sea level is rising.
01:02:57.140
And we're all going to die of a fiery, drowning death very soon.
01:03:21.560
And already, sea levels have already risen an alarming rate.
01:03:30.000
The width, the thinness of a dime is how much we're talking about in the rise of the sea level.
01:03:44.200
Which scientists have been able to measure by satellite to tell us via satellite that the sea level has risen the thinness of a dime.
01:04:12.160
He's lived on this island in the Chesapeake Bay for 50 years.
01:04:15.300
Yeah, but he's now able to talk to contestant number one.
01:04:25.320
And I've been working in the Chesapeake Bay for 50 plus years.
01:04:29.040
And I have a crab house business out on the water.
01:04:31.500
And the water level is the same as it was when the place was built in 1970.
01:04:41.400
And if sea level rise is occurring, why am I not seeing signs of it?
01:04:46.760
I mean, our island is disappearing, but it's because of erosion and not sea level rise.
01:04:52.320
And unless we get a sea wall, we will lose our island.
01:04:55.660
But back to the question, why am I not seeing signs of the sea level rise?
01:05:00.320
What do you think the erosion is due to, Mayor?
01:05:11.040
So you're losing the island even though the waves haven't increased.
01:05:15.760
Yes, this erosion has been going on since Captain John Smith discovered the island and named it.
01:05:22.660
And it's gotten to our doorstep now and we focus on it more.
01:05:26.800
Well, arguments about science aren't necessarily going to be of any comfort to you.
01:05:33.120
Before I get to this, I just want you to know, you know, they're seeing erosion.
01:05:50.080
I know that's hard to understand, but it appears as though those cliffs have eroded.
01:06:28.020
Waves beat over it for millions of years and break it down.
01:06:34.500
But if we don't do something, we may have a hole that may turn into a canyon.
01:06:43.660
If we don't stop the Colorado River, damn it, there's going to be a big hole in the ground.
01:07:12.220
There was a talk in the Washington Post, I believe, after President Trump called you up.
01:07:15.280
And it won't necessarily do you any good for me to tell you that the scientists do say that the sea level is rising in the Chesapeake Bay.
01:07:23.460
And that you've lost about two-thirds of your island.
01:07:26.580
So what I'm telling you is, and this might be a little bit demeaning, but you're too stupid to know you're being demeaned.
01:07:37.060
And by the way, that is a quote from, you know, it's a little demeaning to say this to them, but they're too stupid to understand demeaned.
01:07:46.900
However, the thinness of a dime, the rise of sea level, which, boy, that's a tough margin, huh?
01:07:55.920
That margin of error is less than the thinness of a dime.
01:08:01.240
That, yes, that's the reason why you've lost two-thirds of your island.
01:08:12.940
Now, there's expert number one that is leading 10% of the population, maybe more than that, over the cliffs of insanity.
01:08:25.300
But let me show you on the opposite side where 10% is following this Pied Piper over the cliffs when we come back.
01:08:40.620
Have you spent your nights just tossing and turning?
01:08:42.620
I have to tell you, I almost brought in my pillow today because my wife went out and bought new sheets.
01:08:48.780
I don't know what kind of stupid, all-natural hemp sheets or whatever the hell they are, but they practically had twigs in them.
01:09:00.540
It was, I swear to you, it was some sort of, I can guarantee you, it's like, these were on sale, they're just as good as everything else, and you're asleep fine, and they're all natural.
01:09:13.060
And I'm telling you, it was like sleeping on rocks last night.
01:09:18.920
A twig in the sheet poked me in the eye, I swear to you, last night.
01:09:24.100
Do you have any waves that come into the bedroom?
01:09:26.620
Because this could break down the rocks that you were sleeping on last night.
01:09:29.220
Anyway, so if you've ever had a bad night's sleep, and it's the mattress, sheets, I can take off, and you'll never see them again.
01:09:38.060
I don't know what happened to those sheets, sweetheart.
01:09:44.080
Casper has two high-tech foams that guarantee that you have a great night's sleep.
01:09:48.020
Sleeping cool, comfortably, and fully supported every single night.
01:09:52.340
And you can try it risk-free for 100 nights in your own home.
01:09:57.160
They'll come up and pick it up and return even the thinnest of the last dime will go right to you and your wallet.
01:10:07.820
It's just like trying it out in the store, except you're not in the store, and you're actually sleeping on it, so you can actually know if it's the right mattress for you.
01:10:24.160
Ken, you get $50 off the purchase of your mattress if you use the promo code BECK.
01:10:28.620
That's Casper.com, promo code BECK, terms and conditions to apply, Casper.com.
01:10:46.860
So you have Al Gore, 10% of the population is just listening to that guy.
01:10:51.860
And then on the flip side, you have, I don't even know, 3%, 10% of the population that actually will listen to the news of this guy.
01:11:10.180
It's research true organically-based bio-PQQ, and it's not technically organic.
01:11:15.060
The other stuff, synthetic, completely lab-made.
01:11:19.420
This is made from organic sources, but the bacteria is GMO.
01:11:27.080
It's a bacteria that's just been bred to be able to then secrete and produce.
01:12:05.360
First of all, GMOs, to this guy and his audience, are the worst thing imaginable.
01:12:23.740
It's the kind of genetically modified organism that, let's say, cavemen would have developed.
01:12:32.280
Or really, really, the guys who flunked out of, you know, chemistry and all of that, they
01:12:41.900
In fact, they blew up their lab themselves, just trying to make a milkshake a few years
01:13:00.080
How did they get this substance that's only available on comets?
01:13:02.740
You didn't realize that blueberries, look at them.
01:13:25.520
When they go across the sky, they look pretty small.
01:13:27.880
So maybe it's just a blueberry and it's only like 40 feet up.
01:13:35.900
You're just, you're pointing and you're about an inch away.
01:13:41.280
But I mean, tell me, because you listen to that clip, and that clip is from the John Oliver
01:13:45.220
rant that he had on Alex Jones this weekend, which is actually, even though I'm not a huge
01:13:50.140
But if you look at that clip that we just played of Alex Jones, it's just nonstop disclaimers.
01:13:57.520
And it's the same thing from Al Gore with Dr. Maslowski.
01:14:01.260
We've played that clip a million times where he has so many disclaimers built into what
01:14:08.280
You know he knows what he's saying is alarmist or he's justifying something that he knows
01:14:16.000
But he just says it because he knows he, his audience is going to go along with it.
01:14:21.600
When you're this far down this road, you never disagree with what the host is saying.
01:14:26.160
This is, we really have arrived to the time when I said, you're not going to know who
01:14:39.040
Or at that point, do you have your credibility?
01:15:16.840
You know, I'm struggling to understand the other side of the arguments of common sense.
01:15:28.400
And perhaps it's because common sense is dead in America.
01:15:36.880
And I want to start with a story for the life of me I cannot figure out.
01:16:17.240
Then we're going to get right to illegal aliens.
01:16:22.760
Donald Trump thinks the White House is a real dump.
01:16:24.800
You know, again, they're saying that it was just a round of golf and the White House is a real dump.
01:16:34.360
And I guess it, you know, it must be that he was joking or whatever.
01:16:44.680
Do we have to know everything out of this man's mouth?
01:16:56.080
Is this not the most beautiful asphalt you've ever seen in your life?
01:17:02.100
And while he's on a cart path in the golf, on the golf cart, he'll say, is this not the most beautiful asphalt you've ever seen in your life?
01:17:11.140
I mean, I've seen some pretty good looking asphalt.
01:17:13.180
I don't know that I've actually seen the asphalt in his golf cart.
01:17:15.400
Yeah, that his golf cart was on, but I don't, I don't know.
01:17:17.780
And then, you know, the White House is a real dump.
01:17:21.000
Well, first of all, it might be, you know, it's pretty old.
01:17:25.280
It's pretty old and hasn't had a renovation since the 1950s.
01:17:31.440
You live in a house that hasn't had a renovation since the 1950s.
01:17:35.220
However, I don't think that the White House is a dump.
01:17:38.380
I also hope that the president didn't say that in anything other than a joke.
01:17:47.860
I mean, there's no reason to make a big deal out of it.
01:17:52.820
John Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy, I don't think they liked the White House either.
01:17:57.540
And what they did is Jackie spent all of her time going out and trying to find the original pieces from the original White House,
01:18:09.780
I mean, if indeed he did think it was a dump, then replumb the thing.
01:18:18.940
I mean, it's been remodeled and upgraded, right?
01:18:20.780
You said it has the White House, not since the 1950s.
01:18:25.220
But surely they don't have the same kitchen from the 1960s.
01:18:40.160
Yeah, the White House was gone for, White House was gone.
01:18:43.800
I don't even know, was it Eisenhower or Truman?
01:18:49.360
Truman didn't even get to live in the White House, I don't think.
01:18:51.660
I think he lived in the executive mansion or one of the places right across the street from the White House.
01:19:01.200
And it was because he didn't have the access to the White House.
01:19:07.240
And as he's walking in the front door, guy comes up and shoots him.
01:19:10.960
That's when they were putting in the secret basement.
01:19:13.020
It is when they were putting in the secret basement.
01:19:17.560
In the 1950s, they were putting in fallout shelters and everything else.
01:19:21.400
But they took it all the way to the outside walls.
01:19:23.960
So there are pictures of it, nothing but studs.
01:19:30.420
And, you know, to be honest about it, a public servant should live in a building that is a dump to one of the richest men in the world.
01:19:37.480
It should be a downgrade from wherever he was living before.
01:19:41.080
But it's, I mean, to describe the White House as a dump.
01:19:44.860
And my guess is if he said it at all, which we don't know, it was a joke, right?
01:19:49.380
Like, ah, man, that place is a dump compared to my living at the White House.
01:19:53.500
It's not a comment on the history of the White House.
01:19:56.300
It's a comment from a guy who's one of the richest men in the world who lives in houses and apartments that he built himself, custom designed the way he wanted it.
01:20:07.600
And it's not done in Gold LeMay, which he's used to.
01:20:16.420
Now, the other thing is, is that we do have a story from, what's his name, speaking of joking, Scalamouche, Scalamouche, what's his name?
01:20:30.660
Scalamouche, where he came out and he said the interview that he gave to, what was it, Vanity Fair, off the record, New Yorker, that was so foul-mouthed, he now came out and said, oh, that was just a joke.
01:20:51.620
He was trying to intimidate the reporter to give him the source.
01:20:57.580
He just did it very sloppily by not going off the record, first of all.
01:21:01.400
And second of all, by trashing, I mean, not only did he say, you know, the bad things about, the vulgar things about people like Steve Bannon, he also said he was going to fire everyone in the communications department.
01:21:11.320
What does that do for morale of your department, right?
01:21:15.800
And then he also said he gathered intelligence and digital fingerprints from the FBI and the DOJ, which would be blatantly illegal on his own staff, which, I mean, I'm sure he was lying.
01:21:27.640
But, I mean, really, the swearing is, like, way down the list on that particular interview.
01:21:32.140
Okay, so one more story that I don't understand.
01:21:37.340
Is there anybody working for the American people?
01:21:40.180
Is there anybody who's actually working for them?
01:21:44.460
Yeah, boy, you have not given your Atomic Blonde report.
01:21:48.580
At any moment, I'm always prepared to go with, to talk about Atomic Blonde.
01:21:54.760
I could go and talk about the American people and how no one's working for them.
01:22:14.220
I am just not in any mood to talk about anything that's happening in the world.
01:22:17.740
What actor has the first line in Atomic Blonde?
01:22:28.560
Wait, there's other people in the movie besides Charlize Theron?
01:22:35.280
Now you've thrown John Goodman into this movie.
01:22:44.120
There's no sex scenes with Charlize and John Goodman.
01:22:47.400
The actor with the first line in Atomic Blonde, Ronald Reagan.
01:22:55.300
The movie is way deeper than you'd think from the trailer, which is bizarre.
01:23:00.580
It is the tear down this wall thing because the movie, which you can't tell from the trailer
01:23:03.920
at all, takes place in the 10 days leading up to the wall falling.
01:23:09.720
So it's set in that historical context, which is really interesting.
01:23:17.460
I've heard it has a pretty strong 80s soundtrack, too.
01:23:23.480
And what you're saying is, this is really more of a historical movie.
01:23:32.260
In fact, I just read a review the other day saying that it's actually an anti-communist
01:24:00.780
So it's not like, hey, this is about the Berlin Wall falling.
01:24:04.160
It's a spy story with these spies essentially interacting in Berlin in that time period.
01:24:10.660
So chaos on the streets, the walls coming down, you can't cross back and forth, all that
01:24:29.260
But it was more story than I actually thought I was going to get, which you could argue
01:24:40.880
The trailer lends you to believe that, you know, basically what happens is she kicks
01:24:56.600
I mean, what is in there is, you know, brief but intense.
01:25:10.840
I don't know if they had latex back in the 1980s in some of those situations.
01:25:24.500
But, I mean, some of the fighting scenes are fantastic.
01:25:32.180
I'll tell you, from the trailer, it looks like one of the best action movies I've seen
01:25:39.920
With her in the opening scene of the trailer, with her in the hotel room, you know, death
01:25:50.780
Again, we all understand the physics of these situations.
01:25:54.600
We all covered the Serena Williams controversy.
01:25:57.720
We all know that 108-pound Charlize Theron is not beating the crap out of a 300-pound guy.
01:26:04.140
However, it is believable in the context of the film.
01:26:07.840
Well, she knows karate or jiu-jitsu or something.
01:26:21.840
Did you also go to Star Wars and go, there's no such thing as a Death Star?
01:26:28.340
To put it this way, there is a wall separating East and West Berlin.
01:26:32.280
You have to cross the wall of believing Charlize Theron can kick the crap out of a really muscular...
01:26:38.780
If you can get across that wall, it's fantastic.
01:26:40.340
I have a feeling she could kick the crap out of you.
01:26:45.280
I don't know if she can kick the crap out of everybody else, but she could me.
01:26:59.080
The trailer makes you believe it's basically a nonstop action thing, and it's not really
01:27:06.800
There are parts of dialogue that if you're looking for basically a music video of her
01:27:12.080
kicking everybody's butt, you're going to get a little...
01:27:14.040
It may move a little slow at times towards the beginning, but overall, I think at the
01:27:18.520
This is the most incredible review of all time.
01:27:25.040
You know, what's funny is, it's the exact opposite of most reviews.
01:27:31.920
You see something like that, and you're usually like, okay, I went, and the storyline isn't
01:27:37.380
His review is like, and there was a storyline, and I didn't see that coming, and it was a
01:27:46.920
It's like storyline is a special effect for this movie.
01:27:50.760
It's like a lot of people are like, I went to Playboy for the interviews, and who knows,
01:27:55.800
I went for the naked women, and I saw a story, which was pretty good.
01:28:00.940
But I mean, there's big twists in it that you don't expect and see coming.
01:28:16.540
Oh, I mean, every big historical event, you could see her in this context.
01:28:24.100
You just drop her in this whole thing in the middle of every big historical event.
01:28:31.460
Well, it's rated R, and it's also a $30 million budget.
01:28:37.660
So I would be very surprised if you don't see a sequel, or at least an attempt at it.
01:28:45.680
I don't understand why the movie industry does this.
01:28:50.600
I mean, they just shoot themselves in the foot all the time.
01:28:54.020
Rated R movies make half the amount as PG-13 movies.
01:29:01.700
Yeah, but you don't need to take away the love.
01:29:04.280
No, I'm not saying you do it on a Charlize Theron movie.
01:29:10.440
I mean, I'm just saying that most of these movies, if it was PG-13, guarantee it would
01:29:20.080
It would have made its investment back opening weekend.
01:29:30.400
So I think that's probably what they wanted to do with it.
01:29:35.180
I mean, you'd have to edit a lot to get it to PG-13 because there's a lot of violence
01:29:50.040
I'm bothered by man's inhumanity to man for entertainment's sake.
01:29:55.240
I mean, a lot of people died for your entertainment in this particular film.
01:30:02.900
You could have at the end of the credit, many dogs and horses were not only killed, hurt,
01:30:20.700
Did you hear Rex Tillerson's comments about North Korea yesterday?
01:30:28.160
We do not seek an accelerated reunification of peninsula.
01:30:31.880
We do not seek an excuse to send our military north of the 38th parallel.
01:30:39.400
But you are presenting an unacceptable threat to us and we must respond.
01:30:45.260
We would like to sit and have a dialogue about the future.
01:30:56.540
I mean, when you really look at what's happening with North Korea,
01:31:01.440
and we talked about it, Pat, the other day about what they're doing with their submarines.
01:31:09.380
I mean, the usual course is they do stuff outrageous and then they get everybody to the negotiating table
01:31:20.220
And the famine that is coming this fall and winter in North Korea is going to be extreme.
01:31:27.220
It's going to be worse than for anybody else because they've already got a built-in famine.
01:31:37.000
He cannot look as though he is acquiescing to us, especially during a famine,
01:31:43.120
because he's blaming the famine and everything on us.
01:31:46.860
If he then looks weak to his own people, there could be an uprising against him.
01:31:53.640
Also, it could mean a coup against him if he's weak at all.
01:32:06.440
But it's one of a hundred things that could go wrong that could shut the banks.
01:32:18.360
Or we respond and we decide to take a first strike.
01:33:17.260
Right now they have a 102 serving survival food kit.
01:33:22.540
That's breakfast, lunch, dinner, all shipped free to your home.
01:33:36.540
You've got more than a three-day supply of food.
01:33:43.640
I'm saying if you have a family, let's say four or five people,
01:34:19.460
The president has just released a statement he did weigh in on.
01:34:23.760
I don't know if he wrote all of this, but he did weigh in on it.
01:34:31.960
Today, I signed into the law of the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act,
01:34:35.640
which enacts new sanctions on Iran, North Korea, and Russia.
01:34:38.000
I favor tough measures to punish and deter bad behavior by the rogue regimes in Tehran and Pyongyang.
01:34:45.900
I express my concerns to Congress about the many ways it improperly encroaches on executive power.
01:34:54.760
I built a truly great company worth many billions of dollars.
01:34:59.340
As president, I can make far better deals with foreign countries in Congress.
01:35:27.860
We have a good friend of the program, and his name is Chad Robichaux,
01:35:34.180
and he has written a new book, An Unfair Advantage Victory in the Midst of Battle.
01:35:49.820
eight deployments in Afghanistan in the War on Terror,
01:36:15.220
First, tell everybody about the foundation you started.
01:36:30.460
had my own battle with facing divorce in our family,
01:36:38.500
and I realized that I wasn't the only one suffering at the time.
01:36:53.120
an effort to even pay it forward to one other person,
01:37:03.000
we've had zero suicides from any of our graduates.
01:37:24.760
On Friday night, myself and Sergeant Major Kent,
01:37:26.960
who's the 16th Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps,
01:37:28.680
will be speaking at our third annual gala in D.C.,
01:37:48.900
your opinion on what is happening in North Korea?
01:38:02.760
I cannot see a way that we go to war with North Korea
01:38:12.280
Yeah, it's not a war like we've even experienced
01:38:19.040
I mean, this is more like old-school World War II kind of stuff.
01:38:39.400
there's only so much even from a diplomacy position
01:38:48.520
to even know what their next move's going to be.
01:39:23.920
and literally collapse the economy of the world
01:39:51.800
we're all going to face hardships in this world,
01:41:37.320
Not even that because of all the pictures in it.
