The Glenn Beck Program - 8⧸8⧸17 - Could you stop using Google if you had to？ (Dinesh D'Souza joins Glenn)

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

00:00:08.240 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:11.640 We have the details in the last few minutes of Charlie Gard's life really touching.

00:00:18.980 We want to share with you today also calling all fascists.

00:00:24.300 We need to hear, and I mean this sincerely,

00:00:27.640 I need to hear from somebody who really does not see what Google did as fascism.

00:00:38.380 Because I can't make it work in my own head.

00:00:40.640 I don't know how you don't see that.

00:00:42.600 So if you happen to be somebody who has followed this story about,

00:00:47.620 you know, one of their Google engineers saying,

00:00:50.620 look, our diversity program is limiting diversity.

00:00:55.780 It is harming the company.

00:00:58.300 It is harming people and our society.

00:01:02.340 We're on the wrong track.

00:01:04.440 There are reasons for some of these diversity problems,

00:01:09.220 and we have to have an open and honest discussion about them.

00:01:13.120 He made a very reasoned case.

00:01:16.220 Boy, the left is celebrating that Google terminated him yesterday.

00:01:22.160 This is corporate fascism.

00:01:27.120 And I don't want to try to convince you if you happen to be listening,

00:01:30.440 you're like, Glenn, you're completely wrong on this.

00:01:32.860 I want to hear from you because I do not understand your opinion.

00:01:38.420 And I really want to.

00:01:41.120 So if that's you, 888-727-BECK, call us right now.

00:01:49.300 There's a lot to discuss about the road to fascism and Google and Apple and Facebook.

00:01:57.900 Let's have that discussion, something that actually will make a difference in our lifetime.

00:02:06.240 We do that right now.

00:02:08.360 I will make a stand.

00:02:10.920 I will raise my voice.

00:02:13.180 I will hold your hand.

00:02:15.620 Because we are one.

00:02:17.460 I will beat my drum.

00:02:19.680 I have made my choice.

00:02:21.920 We will overcome.

00:02:24.220 Because we are one.

00:02:25.900 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:02:30.100 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:37.520 Google has fired an employee who wrote a 10-page memo critiquing the company's leftist monopoly.

00:02:44.840 An anonymous employee had the bravery to write a 10-page memo.

00:02:53.040 And this memo was very well written.

00:02:56.640 It's really intelligent.

00:02:58.580 You may not agree with everything in it.

00:03:02.560 I think I did.

00:03:04.320 I mean, I only read it once.

00:03:05.660 But I don't think there was anything in there I really disagreed with.

00:03:08.500 He talks about diversity and that you cannot correct a diversity problem without looking at all of the facts.

00:03:20.240 For instance, he talks about software engineers.

00:03:23.700 And they are now at Google offering classes for different things.

00:03:30.180 But if you are, for instance, a white male, you cannot attend those classes.

00:03:35.800 Google is not allowing you to learn those things.

00:03:39.600 Well, why?

00:03:41.000 How do you fix discrimination with discrimination?

00:03:45.180 That's like, we're going to stop all these slave owners. 1.00

00:03:48.800 We're going to enslave all the slave owners. 1.00

00:03:51.320 And the slaves can own the slave owners. 0.97

00:03:53.620 No, that's not fixing slavery.

00:03:57.160 That's just switching places.

00:04:01.100 Well, we have to do something.

00:04:03.280 No, not like that.

00:04:05.020 And so, he points out that you're creating more problems by having these discriminatory practices.

00:04:16.660 And then you're also denying basic science.

00:04:21.860 And now what he's saying is, there is a biological difference between men and women.

00:04:27.120 Since when, since when, since when has men are for Mars, women are for Venus become crazy, bigoted, outrageous, needs to be banned? 0.99

00:04:43.360 We all understand this if you live with a member of the opposite sex. 1.00

00:04:49.460 There are things that women do and say and think and emote that for the life of me, I have tried. 1.00

00:05:01.220 I've got four women in my house. 1.00

00:05:05.420 I've got my three daughters and my wife.

00:05:08.320 And no matter how hard I try, I just don't understand them all the time.

00:05:14.340 And they don't understand me.

00:05:15.800 And yet, my son and I, we're in lockstep.

00:05:20.800 We can look at each other just across the table and just like, there it is.

00:05:24.920 Don't understand that one.

00:05:26.580 How'd that one happen?

00:05:29.020 Now, that doesn't mean we don't love them, appreciate them, hold them in a place that is exactly the same as me, as just as valid.

00:05:39.540 Men are from Mars.

00:05:40.380 Women are from Venus. 1.00

00:05:41.280 And they do the same thing.

00:05:43.160 We have different languages.

00:05:47.740 We have a different approach to life.

00:05:51.580 And this is the thing that has become so frustrating to me lately is I don't understand this.

00:05:59.820 We would never say, well, no, I can't even say this anymore.

00:06:04.560 We would never say, you know, men are from Mars.

00:06:08.840 Women are from Venus. 1.00

00:06:09.860 And so we've got to blow up Mars or Venus before the other side gets here.

00:06:13.960 But that's what we are doing.

00:06:19.420 We're saying men are from Mars. 0.88

00:06:21.900 Women are from Venus. 1.00

00:06:22.640 And if you think like somebody from Mars or you think like somebody from Venus, you're the enemy.

00:06:29.720 You're the problem.

00:06:31.320 And we need to shut you up. 0.77

00:06:33.260 This is the heart wanting to be the head or the foot wanting to be the hand.

00:06:46.720 Everything is unique and has purpose.

00:06:50.200 And it is the it is the bringing together.

00:06:55.340 I can't believe.

00:06:57.920 I can't believe I'm in the position in this world to where I'm making the liberal case.

00:07:06.280 To where I'm the one saying, no, it's the entire rainbow.

00:07:14.500 It's all of it.

00:07:16.300 But the diversity makes us stronger.

00:07:22.180 Diversity, having a real conversation with somebody that is sometimes uncomfortable, makes you stronger.

00:07:35.100 The only way we are honestly saying, well, I want an exercise routine that will make me stronger and healthy.

00:07:44.620 But I don't I don't want to actually breathe heavy afterwards.

00:07:48.540 I don't I don't want to be tired during and I want no pain of my muscles afterwards.

00:07:54.240 You know what you get?

00:07:55.480 You get one of those exercise machines from the 1920s that just moves your fat around.

00:08:02.000 It does nothing.

00:08:03.500 It does nothing.

00:08:04.840 Now, let me let me ask people if you happen to agree with Google firing this guy.

00:08:17.760 I want to hear from you.

00:08:22.360 I don't know if there's going to be anybody in our audience.

00:08:24.840 I hope there is.

00:08:26.500 Because we have to have a dialogue.

00:08:29.380 We have I have to be able to understand your point of view.

00:08:33.420 I'm not going to belittle you, mock you, try to change your mind.

00:08:37.560 I really want to understand because I don't.

00:08:41.000 And this is the way I view this.

00:08:45.420 This is fascism.

00:08:48.640 And again, I feel like I'm in the position where the left is supposed to be.

00:08:55.420 This is corporate fascism.

00:09:00.360 Look at what is happening.

00:09:02.040 We are closer to being a a corporation than a country than ever before in my lifetime.

00:09:13.920 This has been going down this road for a very long time.

00:09:17.160 But as long as we had the Constitution, I foolishly dismissed that.

00:09:24.580 But here we are.

00:09:25.840 We're in a place to where you're telling me that Facebook, Apple and Google don't or couldn't control the United States.

00:09:42.200 Of course they could.

00:09:44.160 Do you know, we found out last week that Apple alone has fifty six billion dollars worth of U.S. Treasury bonds.

00:09:52.520 That is more than most countries hold.

00:09:56.480 Now, we have a problem with countries holding our U.S. Treasury bonds because if they don't get their way, they can sell them and destabilize our economy.

00:10:08.120 Well, Apple wouldn't do that. 0.71

00:10:10.500 Right, right, right.

00:10:12.060 I forgot about that.

00:10:13.580 Just like China needs us.

00:10:16.380 Just like North Korea will never get a nuke.

00:10:19.680 Just like there never will be a caliphate.

00:10:22.940 That's ridiculous.

00:10:25.760 It's different this time.

00:10:27.680 It's never different this time.

00:10:29.840 Anybody who says it's different this time, that should be your first sign that that person is not engaged in critical thinking.

00:10:37.820 Because the first thing that you learn when you're engaged in critical thinking is it's never different this time.

00:10:47.320 It's always what the people who are on this new bandwagon, that's what they always say just before things go bad.

00:10:59.820 Human nature, what we're doing, what the left is doing, and I am convinced, and maybe I'm wrong, but I am convinced that there are those people on the left that are just as afraid of the Antifa movement as I am.

00:11:22.660 That are just as afraid of what's happening on our college campuses, I am convinced that there are professors who helped unleash this nightmare who now realize, oh, wait a minute, because people are people.

00:11:39.720 They're no different than many of us who thought our party was above all those things and realized, oh, crap, we're exactly the same.

00:11:52.600 We're part of the problem.

00:11:54.360 You can't tell me that there aren't those people in universities that aren't thinking, oh, crap, what are we doing?

00:12:02.520 This is going in the wrong direction.

00:12:05.420 This is going against everything we stood for.

00:12:10.700 You also can't tell me that there aren't people in Google.

00:12:13.660 Now, there are those because they have been educated with this post-modernism.

00:12:27.180 They've been educated with all of that nonsense that they are no longer engaged in critical thinking.

00:12:34.640 It is only social justice.

00:12:36.460 And now it's only about winning.

00:12:41.040 But you can't tell me that there's only this guy in Google that feels this way.

00:12:45.200 The reason why Google fired this guy is because they need to silence them.

00:12:51.040 They need to make sure that when they say that's not OK, what they're sending the message is and we will fire you.

00:12:59.880 We will destroy you.

00:13:01.520 We will smear you.

00:13:02.860 Because your point of view is not OK anywhere.

00:13:10.000 Now, let me ask you, a company that believes that they should fire instead of having a an intellectual dialogue.

00:13:20.660 And I'm not talking about bringing in, you know, crazy people.

00:13:26.620 I'm not saying you bring in flamethrowers and political nonsense.

00:13:31.260 But have an actual dialogue with reasonable and educated people on both sides.

00:13:39.900 And you both walk away going, wow, I never thought of it that way.

00:13:43.740 I don't think I agree, but I never saw it that way.

00:13:47.360 You can't tell me that that's a bad thing.

00:13:49.900 It's not.

00:13:51.640 And if you're trying to silence the actual intellectual arguments of another side, you have become nothing more than the ancient church that would take scientists and lock them away or kill them.

00:14:06.320 You were doing you are becoming McCarthy.

00:14:12.280 And I don't understand how that's not happening.

00:14:20.200 And there's something more disturbing.

00:14:22.760 Because a company that says we won't allow that kind of thinking in this company.

00:14:29.880 How could that company allow their search engine to find that opinion?

00:14:39.940 Because that's the next step.

00:14:42.340 If that company becomes so locked in to its agenda and that it's right and nothing else is right.

00:14:49.800 How could they possibly allow this monologue to be found on Google in a positive way?

00:14:58.940 They couldn't.

00:15:01.840 How can you?

00:15:03.920 Because you've deemed this opinion bad for society.

00:15:09.540 Sexist.

00:15:10.920 Racist.

00:15:12.080 How could you possibly do that?

00:15:15.760 You can't.

00:15:17.080 So isn't what they do now internally only a matter of time before they start doing it externally?

00:15:29.480 Our sponsor this half hour is Simply Safe.

00:15:33.260 Please, if you are listening and you and you see what Google is doing as a good thing, please call.

00:15:41.340 I'm not going to hold you up and try to, you know, convince.

00:15:45.600 I just need to understand.

00:15:49.200 What am I missing here?

00:15:51.840 888-727-BECK.

00:15:54.440 Don't leave for vacation this summer without securing your home.

00:15:57.720 It's so funny.

00:15:58.460 I grew up in a town, Mount Vernon, Washington.

00:16:00.420 This little town in Skagit Valley, Tulip Country.

00:16:03.120 It's such a great little town.

00:16:05.540 Not so little anymore, I bet.

00:16:07.800 And we never locked our doors.

00:16:09.620 Except when we went on vacation.

00:16:11.460 Which was twice growing up.

00:16:13.080 If we would leave and we were going to be gone for a week.

00:16:16.260 That's the only time my dad would ever lock the door.

00:16:19.720 I remember him locking and unlocking the door twice in my life.

00:16:23.220 That's because that's when burglars hit.

00:16:26.560 They hit during the day for the rest of the year.

00:16:29.140 But during summer vacations, they hit during the day.

00:16:33.840 And they watch houses that have nobody in them.

00:16:37.820 When you have nobody in them, that's when you're going to get hit.

00:16:41.120 You're away.

00:16:42.120 Simply Safe will help you secure your home.

00:17:09.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:17:16.000 Mercury.

00:17:20.080 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:17:22.820 All right.

00:17:23.660 We've got a couple of people who understand Google and agree with Google.

00:17:27.700 Let me go to Nate in Virginia.

00:17:30.080 Hello, Nate.

00:17:31.340 Hey, Beck.

00:17:32.320 How are you doing, buddy?

00:17:33.280 Very good.

00:17:34.420 Hey, I understand why you might be upset,

00:17:36.460 but I really don't see since when here in America do corporations need legitimate reasons

00:17:43.640 to fire someone they think is causing problems in their organization or in their company

00:17:47.860 or does not agree with their future vision of the world.

00:17:53.980 Okay, so hang on just a second.

00:17:55.040 Let's make sure that we're not on legalistic terms

00:17:57.420 because legally Google can run their company any way they want to run their company.

00:18:02.040 I'm not talking about legalistically.

00:18:03.940 I'm talking about corporate fascism.

00:18:08.200 When your diversity director is silencing those voices that are diverse from yours,

00:18:18.340 there seems to be a problem, especially when it is a well-made case.

00:18:24.460 Now, you as a company can do whatever you want.

00:18:27.220 If they want to fire them, that's great.

00:18:29.000 But I don't see that as a positive thing.

00:18:35.760 Well, here's the thing with companies and corporations, unlike governments.

00:18:40.060 They require a lot more unity, a unity in purpose, a unity in vision.

00:18:44.620 And if there's certain people in the corporation, say, for instance, there are the right-wingers,

00:18:49.420 and this is a left, libtard, Grand Central Station.

00:18:56.040 Obviously, those right-wingers need to keep their thoughts and their politics at home where it belongs

00:19:01.800 and should not bring it out into the corporation world at all because that's not why they're there.

00:19:06.140 They're there to work.

00:19:06.980 No, because the corporate culture is bringing these social justice politics out 0.87

00:19:17.200 because they say they're trying to create a better world.

00:19:20.520 So what this person was saying was, wait, but you're not including me at that.

00:19:26.640 I don't think it's right to shove people into a closet, no matter what their point of view is.

00:19:34.560 And I don't see silencing people.

00:19:39.060 Let me just put it this way.

00:19:40.420 I appreciate your call, Nate.

00:19:42.460 I'd like somebody to answer this question.

00:19:44.900 First of all, what Nate said is right.

00:19:47.020 Companies can do whatever they want.

00:19:48.380 I agree.

00:19:48.900 But help me out on this.

00:19:52.340 How, if you're trying to be diverse and celebrate diversity,

00:19:58.300 when an intellectually solid posing view is presented,

00:20:05.000 how do you silence that and still claim you're for diversity?

00:20:13.700 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:16.060 I'm seeing a lot of phone calls up on the board,

00:20:26.940 and I want to make sure that you understand what I'm asking you

00:20:30.700 on this Google firing of one of their engineers.

00:20:36.620 What I'm asking you is not did Google have the right to do it.

00:20:42.080 They're a private company.

00:20:43.360 They could do whatever their shareholders, you know, accept.

00:20:50.220 They are a private company.

00:20:53.560 They're setting their own temperature.

00:20:57.200 So, okay, they want to fire somebody who disagrees with them.

00:21:00.980 That's great.

00:21:02.100 Personally, I don't do that.

00:21:04.960 I have the first person I hired at the blaze was a woman who was pro-choice, 0.99

00:21:11.060 but she was open about it.

00:21:15.040 She was rock solid in her thinking on it,

00:21:18.120 and it was a different point of view.

00:21:21.060 I never once censored her.

00:21:23.780 I never once said, okay, keep that to yourself.

00:21:26.520 Never.

00:21:26.920 Ask Amy Holmes.

00:21:30.680 Two.

00:21:32.300 Sarah Carlson.

00:21:33.720 She now directs the, she now directs Meet the Press.

00:21:38.580 She worked for me for what?

00:21:40.680 Six years?

00:21:41.500 Seven years?

00:21:42.740 She was my director at Fox and my director here at the blaze.

00:21:46.680 Until she left for Meet the Press.

00:21:50.260 She's from San Francisco, as left and progressive as they come.

00:21:55.620 I used to ask for her opinion in crowds, after shows.

00:22:00.760 Where did I get it wrong, Sarah?

00:22:02.660 What did I say that you wouldn't understand or X, Y, Z?

00:22:07.680 She was never afraid, at least that I think,

00:22:11.580 never afraid to express her opinion.

00:22:14.560 They shouldn't be.

00:22:16.540 If somebody, you're working for somebody who has an opinion,

00:22:20.120 and you are afraid to express yours,

00:22:22.740 that doesn't mean that you can express your opinion

00:22:27.860 and then keep fighting against it,

00:22:30.100 because the boss has made the decision.

00:22:32.120 This is the direction we're going.

00:22:33.680 And if you don't want to go in that direction,

00:22:36.180 then you should go find someplace else.

00:22:39.140 But you should never be afraid of expressing your opinion,

00:22:43.320 especially if the boss says to you, which Google did,

00:22:47.820 we're a campus that wants to be very diverse,

00:22:51.300 and we need everybody's help on this.

00:22:53.500 So share your thoughts of diversity.

00:22:56.580 What's happening with diversity?

00:22:58.200 How can we be better?

00:22:59.680 And then a person steps up and says,

00:23:02.040 okay, because the stuff that you were doing

00:23:03.780 doesn't make any sense.

00:23:05.640 And it's intellectually sound.

00:23:09.300 You don't have to agree with it.

00:23:11.520 You don't even have to believe it's right.

00:23:13.480 But it's intellectually rigorous.

00:23:16.700 It's not, well, because.

00:23:20.080 Okay, that doesn't work.

00:23:20.980 But if it has some intellectual rigor behind it,

00:23:25.160 and you've asked for it,

00:23:27.480 how do you fire that person?

00:23:30.160 Without showing yourself to be an absolute hypocrite at best,

00:23:37.480 and fascist at worst.

00:23:40.160 If this was Firestone,

00:23:44.160 I would be like,

00:23:45.880 they're tire people.

00:23:46.720 I don't really care.

00:23:47.800 They have a right to hire and fire.

00:23:49.280 I'm not going to buy their tires anymore.

00:23:52.240 This isn't Firestone.

00:23:54.380 This is almost everyone's gateway to information,

00:23:59.400 Google.

00:24:00.900 And B,

00:24:02.000 it is also the company that is leading the way

00:24:06.660 in artificial intelligence.

00:24:08.360 So what they decide as right or wrong

00:24:12.640 will be what is sorting.

00:24:16.200 For instance,

00:24:17.200 Facebook just came out last week and said

00:24:19.340 they just started putting AI on censorship.

00:24:23.600 So now they can go in,

00:24:25.520 and it's twice as fast as humans,

00:24:27.920 and they can pull down all the offensive stuff.

00:24:31.540 Well, remember, garbage in, garbage out.

00:24:35.080 Do you have diversity of thought?

00:24:39.100 Does Facebook,

00:24:40.080 has Facebook had this conversation that Google is now having,

00:24:44.080 and saying,

00:24:44.600 wait a minute,

00:24:45.000 there's two ways to look at things,

00:24:46.780 and just because you believe this,

00:24:48.940 does not make that a sexist remark?

00:24:52.640 It might be intellectually sound

00:24:54.640 sound and good for the body to be able to wrestle with those questions?

00:25:01.860 If AI has decided because it's been taught,

00:25:05.300 nope,

00:25:05.940 that has no place here,

00:25:08.040 does Google start just so they can be consistent and don't be evil?

00:25:12.580 just because they can make sure that they're changing the world for the better

00:25:19.140 as they deem,

00:25:21.520 do they take the steps to start silencing these opinions elsewhere?

00:25:25.420 And if not,

00:25:28.400 why?

00:25:29.640 Why is there a line?

00:25:31.400 They're all very,

00:25:32.280 very clear now.

00:25:33.380 We have to silence it without any debate.

00:25:37.060 They wouldn't even quote the memo

00:25:41.800 because they didn't want those ideas around here.

00:25:45.340 They're not worth repeating.

00:25:47.020 If they're so sure without debate

00:25:52.200 that they should shut that down

00:25:54.600 because it's wrong,

00:25:56.200 misogynistic,

00:25:57.500 it's evil,

00:25:59.660 they can shut that down there. 0.74

00:26:03.240 What stops that group of people saying,

00:26:05.820 well,

00:26:05.980 why the hell are we exposing it over here?

00:26:08.560 We're completely inconsistent.

00:26:10.940 There's cognitive dissidence.

00:26:12.860 We are searching for this

00:26:15.180 internally,

00:26:16.260 this utopia,

00:26:17.800 but we're going to let our search engines

00:26:19.740 and we're going to teach AI

00:26:22.740 that it should tolerate that outside.

00:26:26.540 We're smarter than the people outside.

00:26:32.520 Marty,

00:26:33.400 Tennessee,

00:26:33.940 you're on the Glebeck program.

00:26:36.360 Good morning,

00:26:37.000 Glenn.

00:26:37.420 Hey,

00:26:38.160 thanks for taking my call.

00:26:39.880 You bet.

00:26:40.500 I do.

00:26:41.140 I do agree with Google's actions.

00:26:43.500 In my opinion,

00:26:44.280 the integrity and professionalism

00:26:46.480 and even the morals of the gentleman

00:26:47.900 are excellent.

00:26:48.760 He simply shared his opinion

00:26:50.420 and by his actions,

00:26:52.260 he stood up for what he believes in

00:26:53.880 and himself

00:26:54.960 and perhaps others.

00:26:56.340 And we all agree that by Google's actions,

00:26:58.540 they conducted themselves

00:26:59.700 in a manner that's typical

00:27:01.600 of many businesses

00:27:02.640 and institutions in our country.

00:27:04.240 So we really shouldn't be too surprised.

00:27:06.360 He stood up for what was right

00:27:07.700 and what he believed in.

00:27:09.300 And I agree.

00:27:10.460 By Google's firing him,

00:27:12.620 they set in place

00:27:13.600 the chain reaction

00:27:14.720 in which his ideologies,

00:27:16.820 his beliefs,

00:27:17.520 deepest moral convictions

00:27:19.180 are brought out

00:27:21.060 from the smaller world of Google

00:27:22.920 and into the world

00:27:23.760 that we can be part of his cause.

00:27:25.720 And I'm truly sorry

00:27:27.180 for the pain and grief

00:27:28.140 the man might go through,

00:27:29.280 but we're all called to suffer,

00:27:31.320 stand up for what we believe in.

00:27:33.220 And by his actions,

00:27:34.240 he did what I believe

00:27:36.060 is right and true.

00:27:36.960 And the truth about Google

00:27:38.460 is now out.

00:27:39.420 And on a personal note,

00:27:40.640 I had the exact same thing happen

00:27:42.620 here in Tennessee

00:27:44.680 where I stood up

00:27:46.240 for what was right

00:27:47.980 and I was persecuted.

00:27:50.740 And I had the exact same thing happen.

00:27:54.040 And we are called

00:27:55.140 to stand up for what we believe in.

00:27:57.200 So I agree with you

00:28:02.380 that we all have to stand up.

00:28:04.180 But what part of,

00:28:07.100 now that Google is exposed,

00:28:10.140 how are you suggesting people

00:28:12.700 are going to rally?

00:28:14.620 I mean, have you seen

00:28:15.400 the news coverage on this?

00:28:17.040 And how do they rally?

00:28:18.480 I thought about this last night.

00:28:19.760 Well, I'm not using,

00:28:20.980 yes, I am.

00:28:21.940 I'm going to use Google.

00:28:23.360 I'm going to use Google.

00:28:25.180 So what course of action

00:28:28.440 do you have?

00:28:29.120 As one,

00:28:32.380 I have no action.

00:28:33.460 As many, we would.

00:28:34.700 And I agree with you.

00:28:36.060 We can't say I'm not using Google.

00:28:37.460 I've got it on my computer right now.

00:28:39.380 And that would be foolish.

00:28:41.100 It needs to come from

00:28:42.560 a burning desire

00:28:43.600 from within the company

00:28:44.700 that they say,

00:28:45.840 this is really the truth.

00:28:47.800 And we need to,

00:28:49.240 we need to act

00:28:50.700 in order to better serve

00:28:52.660 our employees,

00:28:54.820 our families,

00:28:55.500 and the community

00:28:57.160 in which we serve.

00:28:58.320 It has to come from within.

00:29:00.140 They need to have conviction.

00:29:02.140 And from that,

00:29:03.140 we will have success.

00:29:05.860 It may not happen right away.

00:29:07.660 As an individual,

00:29:08.780 I'm not sure what to do.

00:29:10.240 So, Marty,

00:29:11.000 you said this happened to you.

00:29:13.240 Did,

00:29:13.760 A,

00:29:14.500 tell me your story,

00:29:15.940 and B,

00:29:17.380 was there,

00:29:18.720 you know,

00:29:19.500 I don't even know how to say,

00:29:20.540 justice in the end?

00:29:22.000 I am a teacher.

00:29:26.520 And in a school here in,

00:29:28.520 in,

00:29:28.920 in Nashville,

00:29:31.400 we were exposed to dangerous molds.

00:29:34.920 And I,

00:29:35.900 I showed this to the district.

00:29:38.180 I brought it to their attention

00:29:39.360 for several months.

00:29:40.820 And they refused to do anything about it.

00:29:43.580 And as a result,

00:29:44.680 I became very ill

00:29:46.620 and had to have surgery

00:29:48.920 with a massive infection

00:29:50.320 removed from my head

00:29:51.520 because of the black mold

00:29:52.840 growing in my head.

00:29:54.560 I figured out that there were

00:29:55.900 dozens of other children

00:29:57.280 that were being sick

00:29:58.400 and had to leave the school

00:29:59.780 because of it.

00:30:01.060 And despite my bringing

00:30:02.400 the samples

00:30:03.760 that I had tested

00:30:04.840 to the school district

00:30:06.120 and sharing it with them,

00:30:07.780 they said,

00:30:08.260 it's dust.

00:30:08.980 It's nothing to worry about.

00:30:10.940 Children are sick.

00:30:12.400 Teachers are sick.

00:30:13.580 They refuse to do anything.

00:30:15.640 And after my surgery,

00:30:17.360 I could not breathe the air

00:30:19.420 in the school

00:30:20.420 because of the,

00:30:21.420 the mold is still

00:30:22.860 in the HVAC system.

00:30:24.800 And then I said,

00:30:26.580 my doctor told me,

00:30:27.680 I have to,

00:30:28.360 I have to take

00:30:28.980 the last week of school off.

00:30:31.120 I just cannot continue

00:30:32.760 to be in this environment.

00:30:33.880 I was wearing a surgical mask

00:30:35.560 as to filter it out.

00:30:38.440 So, so,

00:30:39.600 okay, so quick.

00:30:41.480 I just,

00:30:41.840 I'm up against a break.

00:30:42.900 So I just want to cut to the end.

00:30:44.160 So they fired you

00:30:45.540 because of that.

00:30:46.980 Have they fixed

00:30:47.900 the mold since?

00:30:50.000 They say that they have,

00:30:51.760 but in a,

00:30:53.100 in a conference

00:30:54.120 prior to me leaving,

00:30:56.040 I sat down

00:30:57.100 with the principal,

00:30:58.140 the vice principal.

00:30:59.060 I sat with

00:31:00.440 the OSHA

00:31:01.560 head

00:31:02.380 of the district

00:31:03.840 and the facilities manager.

00:31:05.540 And they looked at me

00:31:06.380 and they said,

00:31:07.220 the job's too big.

00:31:09.200 We're not going to fix it

00:31:10.640 until 2018,

00:31:12.740 the summer of

00:31:13.480 when we do a full renovation.

00:31:15.360 And I begged,

00:31:16.720 what are we going to do

00:31:17.640 about the sick kids?

00:31:18.920 What are we going to do

00:31:19.580 about making sure

00:31:20.640 that they're safe?

00:31:22.000 The mold is in the cafeteria,

00:31:23.780 the library,

00:31:24.600 and the classrooms

00:31:25.660 in the third of the school.

00:31:27.060 Again, again,

00:31:27.640 I don't mean to rush it,

00:31:28.660 but did they fix it?

00:31:31.580 No.

00:31:32.280 No.

00:31:32.660 Okay.

00:31:33.240 All right.

00:31:33.940 Thanks, Marty.

00:31:34.580 I appreciate it.

00:31:35.240 And thanks for standing up

00:31:36.360 and you did the right thing

00:31:37.320 for standing up.

00:31:38.160 But again,

00:31:40.020 not fixed.

00:31:42.880 I ask you that about Google.

00:31:45.380 What are you going to do

00:31:46.360 about Google?

00:31:47.020 Nothing.

00:31:47.720 Nothing.

00:31:48.120 I'm not even going to

00:31:48.840 stop using Google.

00:31:50.260 I mean,

00:31:50.840 that would be true.

00:31:52.200 I have wanted to

00:31:53.800 many times.

00:31:55.740 They're the best out there.

00:31:57.440 And they are the,

00:31:58.440 this is the key here.

00:31:59.880 It's not a tire company.

00:32:02.140 It is the gateway

00:32:04.340 to information.

00:32:06.420 I'm switching to Ask Jeeves.

00:32:08.820 From now on.

00:32:10.120 I think, you know,

00:32:10.620 the issue is though,

00:32:11.400 if they continue to do

00:32:12.360 these types of things.

00:32:13.440 I mean,

00:32:13.800 when you take a guy

00:32:14.640 who has a bachelor

00:32:16.120 in molecular biology,

00:32:18.060 physics and chemistry

00:32:18.780 at the University of Illinois,

00:32:20.100 has a PhD in systems biology

00:32:21.840 from Harvard,

00:32:22.920 is a research intern

00:32:24.260 at Princeton,

00:32:25.080 research intern at Harvard,

00:32:26.940 research scientist at MIT.

00:32:28.600 Smart guy.

00:32:29.260 and then went to Google.

00:32:30.140 When you start firing

00:32:31.240 people like that,

00:32:32.500 you're making yourself

00:32:34.300 vulnerable, right?

00:32:35.540 And there's something bizarre

00:32:36.820 about a bunch of feminists 1.00

00:32:38.360 telling us that the most

00:32:39.780 successful company

00:32:40.800 basically in the history

00:32:41.980 of the world

00:32:42.700 has been male-dominated

00:32:44.520 the whole time.

00:32:45.800 They are telling us

00:32:46.900 that the culture there

00:32:48.240 has been all about males,

00:32:50.080 it's all been dominated

00:32:51.420 by males,

00:32:52.560 yet look at what

00:32:53.880 they've done.

00:32:55.200 It's such a strange argument

00:32:57.280 to come from a feminist. 1.00

00:32:59.300 But the idea is

00:33:00.400 when you implement policies,

00:33:02.480 this is the opposite

00:33:03.160 of the way they built Google,

00:33:04.660 right?

00:33:05.360 When they start implementing

00:33:06.440 policies like this,

00:33:07.240 it's what makes these

00:33:08.080 behemoths vulnerable.

00:33:09.700 And it's how they fall.

00:33:10.540 And they fall hard

00:33:11.220 when they do.

00:33:12.080 Now, one guy getting fired

00:33:13.680 is not going to destroy

00:33:14.580 this company by any means,

00:33:15.740 but if this culture persists,

00:33:17.440 it will make it weaker

00:33:18.500 and somebody else

00:33:19.860 will come and beat them down.

00:33:21.720 Google.

00:33:22.000 I don't believe

00:33:24.020 that will happen

00:33:24.820 as Google has made deals

00:33:26.860 with the government

00:33:27.680 on servers.

00:33:30.220 It is part and parcel

00:33:32.420 almost now

00:33:33.320 with our information structure

00:33:36.820 for the United States government.

00:33:39.360 I mean, that thing falls.

00:33:42.360 I mean, I would not count that

00:33:44.660 as inevitable.

00:33:47.780 That's too big to fail now.

00:33:49.200 I mean, hopefully it's too big

00:33:50.820 to fail.

00:33:51.900 Thank you.

00:33:52.600 Now this,

00:33:53.700 the wrong hire

00:33:54.680 will cost your company money.

00:33:56.600 Think, if Google could have this back

00:33:58.280 and not just not hire this bigot,

00:34:00.300 racist, sexist. 0.50

00:35:07.200 So, let me ask you this.

00:35:15.020 How many of us

00:35:16.100 would have any

00:35:16.840 work-life balance

00:35:18.000 if it weren't

00:35:20.140 for the women

00:35:21.040 in our life?

00:35:22.460 People have

00:35:23.420 work-life balance?

00:35:24.860 Yeah.

00:35:25.160 That's a thing?

00:35:25.620 They do?

00:35:26.220 Yeah.

00:35:27.600 Weird.

00:35:27.900 I'm saying any.

00:35:28.860 Okay.

00:35:29.560 Yeah.

00:35:29.960 If you have five

00:35:31.820 if you have

00:35:33.340 five minutes

00:35:35.100 of balance

00:35:36.080 in your day

00:35:37.100 where you're like

00:35:38.120 at least looking

00:35:39.120 at your children

00:35:39.860 while you're working

00:35:40.800 how would we have that

00:35:44.080 without our wives?

00:35:45.760 We wouldn't.

00:35:47.180 We wouldn't.

00:35:48.080 We'd show up at home

00:35:48.920 to sleep

00:35:49.380 and that'd be about it.

00:35:50.180 Last night

00:35:50.980 Michelle,

00:35:52.280 my assistant

00:35:52.760 was like

00:35:53.880 it is 6.30

00:35:55.100 you are going home

00:35:56.440 you have to go home

00:35:57.680 your wife wants you home 1.00

00:35:58.860 blah blah blah

00:35:59.380 and I looked at her

00:36:00.660 and I said

00:36:01.100 when my wife

00:36:03.100 pays the mortgage payment

00:36:05.420 I'll go home

00:36:06.940 all the time

00:36:08.640 I'm trying to make

00:36:09.520 the mortgage payment

00:36:10.420 right now.

00:36:10.880 You realize you're

00:36:11.420 on the air right now?

00:36:12.120 Yes.

00:36:12.360 I just said that?

00:36:12.880 Yes.

00:36:13.080 Okay.

00:36:13.340 I just want to make sure.

00:36:14.300 Yes.

00:36:15.660 It would be just like me

00:36:17.160 because she'll say it to me

00:36:18.680 you know

00:36:19.480 I'll say

00:36:19.900 honey

00:36:20.260 come on

00:36:20.780 let's go

00:36:21.340 when you

00:36:23.040 are the one

00:36:24.160 that is

00:36:24.940 responsible

00:36:25.720 for the schooling

00:36:26.960 and everything else

00:36:28.840 in this house

00:36:29.740 you know

00:36:31.600 you go ahead

00:36:32.140 and let me know

00:36:32.740 when you're doing that

00:36:33.980 you let me know

00:36:35.120 hurry up

00:36:35.900 we gotta go

00:36:36.620 to vacation

00:36:37.520 the movie

00:36:38.200 whatever it is

00:36:39.600 okay

00:36:40.140 it's a two way street

00:36:41.760 and it doesn't mean

00:36:43.360 that one can't do the other

00:36:45.120 we each have

00:36:46.520 our own thing

00:36:48.120 but I will tell you this

00:36:50.000 naturally

00:36:52.080 women 1.00

00:36:53.080 have much more

00:36:55.360 life balance

00:36:57.100 than guys do

00:36:58.300 we would most likely

00:36:59.900 work ourselves

00:37:01.140 to death

00:37:01.820 for a stupid

00:37:02.780 sports car

00:37:04.080 in the end

00:37:05.220 if it wasn't

00:37:06.380 for the women

00:37:07.440 in our life

00:37:08.200 why can we not

00:37:09.620 look at that

00:37:10.280 diversity

00:37:10.940 and be

00:37:12.260 happy

00:37:13.080 and

00:37:14.040 and see

00:37:15.020 it's

00:37:15.340 it's beauty

00:37:16.180 this is

00:37:16.840 the Glenn Beck

00:37:18.460 program

00:37:19.260 Mercury

00:37:20.680 hey some good news

00:37:35.580 Americans

00:37:36.240 were number one

00:37:37.760 Americans now have

00:37:39.520 the highest credit card

00:37:40.720 debt in history

00:37:42.060 yay

00:37:43.140 we're growing

00:37:46.320 at an annual rate

00:37:47.380 of 4.9%

00:37:49.220 because the banks

00:37:51.060 are giving more people

00:37:52.160 credit cards

00:37:52.980 we now have

00:37:54.260 1.021 trillion dollars

00:37:58.780 in credit card debt

00:38:01.120 don't worry

00:38:03.020 it's all gonna work

00:38:04.800 it's different

00:38:05.840 somehow

00:38:06.500 this time

00:38:07.320 also

00:38:08.460 we have

00:38:09.320 a couple

00:38:10.260 of stories

00:38:10.680 including

00:38:11.180 the

00:38:11.740 the final

00:38:12.960 moments

00:38:13.480 of Charlie

00:38:14.400 Guard

00:38:14.800 the parents

00:38:16.580 have just

00:38:17.320 spoken out

00:38:19.200 and

00:38:19.560 and

00:38:19.940 and spoke

00:38:20.980 on

00:38:21.320 what the last

00:38:22.640 couple of minutes

00:38:23.380 were like

00:38:24.060 it is

00:38:24.980 a really

00:38:26.160 touching story

00:38:27.440 and one

00:38:29.700 that we hope

00:38:30.660 does not

00:38:31.360 repeat itself

00:38:32.200 here in America

00:38:33.000 because

00:38:33.860 there is

00:38:35.220 a child

00:38:35.800 in Kalamazoo

00:38:36.660 Michigan

00:38:37.020 that you need

00:38:37.780 to know about

00:38:38.560 that has

00:38:39.740 the same

00:38:40.320 disease

00:38:40.960 and hopefully

00:38:42.160 because

00:38:42.800 they live

00:38:43.440 in America

00:38:44.000 it will

00:38:45.260 have a happy

00:38:46.120 ending

00:38:46.520 we want to

00:38:47.060 introduce you

00:38:47.600 to those

00:38:48.200 parents

00:38:48.780 beginning right

00:38:50.060 now

00:39:05.800 the fusion

00:39:09.800 of

00:39:10.200 entertainment

00:39:10.840 and

00:39:11.520 enlightenment

00:39:12.060 this is

00:39:13.580 the

00:39:14.040 Glenn

00:39:14.460 Beck

00:39:15.460 program

00:39:16.660 Charlie

00:39:18.680 Guard

00:39:19.040 is this

00:39:22.120 incredible

00:39:23.280 story

00:39:23.760 in case

00:39:24.300 you

00:39:24.580 missed it

00:39:25.280 let me

00:39:25.600 just

00:39:25.860 quickly

00:39:27.180 recap

00:39:27.760 he just

00:39:29.760 died

00:39:30.080 it was a

00:39:30.580 week before

00:39:31.020 his first

00:39:31.580 birthday

00:39:32.200 Chris Guard

00:39:33.680 and Connie

00:39:34.200 Yates

00:39:34.640 had a

00:39:36.640 son

00:39:36.960 born

00:39:37.580 everybody

00:39:38.120 thought

00:39:38.480 he was

00:39:39.140 fine

00:39:39.560 everything

00:39:40.080 was

00:39:40.280 normal

00:39:40.580 and then

00:39:41.780 symptoms

00:39:42.380 started to

00:39:43.320 have an

00:39:44.600 onset

00:39:45.000 and because

00:39:45.640 they lived

00:39:46.180 with socialized

00:39:46.940 medicine

00:39:47.380 the

00:39:48.780 hospital

00:39:50.420 said there's

00:39:50.920 nothing

00:39:51.260 we can do

00:39:52.260 even though

00:39:52.720 there is

00:39:53.120 experimental

00:39:53.640 and somewhat

00:39:54.800 successful

00:39:55.380 experimental

00:39:56.140 procedures

00:39:57.380 done here

00:39:58.280 in America

00:39:58.780 the hospital

00:39:59.860 wouldn't let

00:40:00.520 Charlie go

00:40:01.260 they fought

00:40:02.140 in court

00:40:02.860 by the time

00:40:04.300 the court

00:40:05.980 case was

00:40:06.820 coming to

00:40:07.260 an end

00:40:07.760 it was

00:40:08.280 too late

00:40:08.780 doctors said

00:40:09.480 here in

00:40:09.780 America

00:40:10.080 it's too

00:40:10.580 late for

00:40:11.000 him

00:40:11.260 there's no

00:40:13.160 more time

00:40:13.640 left

00:40:14.020 the parents

00:40:15.320 sued the

00:40:16.340 hospital

00:40:16.720 said please

00:40:17.380 let us just

00:40:17.900 take him

00:40:18.360 home so

00:40:18.880 he can

00:40:19.160 die at

00:40:19.740 home

00:40:20.120 the hospital

00:40:21.380 took them

00:40:22.080 to court

00:40:22.480 on that

00:40:23.180 one

00:40:23.540 and fought

00:40:24.260 against it

00:40:24.860 and somehow

00:40:25.600 another

00:40:25.920 won

00:40:26.420 and he

00:40:27.900 died

00:40:28.340 in a

00:40:28.880 hospice

00:40:29.480 center

00:40:29.940 but he

00:40:30.440 did die

00:40:30.960 with the

00:40:31.260 parents

00:40:31.620 and both

00:40:32.880 of them

00:40:33.160 said we

00:40:33.600 took Charlie

00:40:34.240 out for a

00:40:34.780 walk in a

00:40:35.260 push chair

00:40:35.820 in the

00:40:36.340 hospice

00:40:36.680 park

00:40:37.020 we dressed

00:40:38.920 him in

00:40:39.620 baby grow

00:40:40.600 with stars

00:40:41.140 on it

00:40:41.540 he looked so

00:40:42.000 beautiful and

00:40:42.580 innocent

00:40:42.940 this is according

00:40:43.500 to mom

00:40:43.980 Connie

00:40:44.380 the hospice

00:40:45.480 staff

00:40:45.960 popped in

00:40:47.580 those last

00:40:48.480 five hours

00:40:49.480 just flashed

00:40:50.440 by

00:40:50.760 a woman 0.57

00:40:51.900 said the

00:40:53.720 moment we

00:40:54.260 dreaded would

00:40:54.740 happen in the

00:40:55.460 next five

00:40:56.060 minutes

00:40:56.440 Chris and I

00:40:57.160 were both

00:40:57.600 crying

00:40:58.100 we laid

00:40:58.920 on the

00:40:59.180 bed with

00:40:59.760 Charlie

00:41:00.120 between us

00:41:00.760 each of

00:41:01.180 us holding

00:41:01.680 a hand

00:41:02.240 we were

00:41:03.340 both telling

00:41:04.020 him that

00:41:04.560 we were

00:41:04.840 there and

00:41:05.260 that we

00:41:05.540 loved him

00:41:06.100 and how

00:41:06.420 proud we

00:41:07.060 were of

00:41:07.520 him

00:41:07.860 Charlie

00:41:09.800 opened his

00:41:10.480 eyes at

00:41:10.940 that moment

00:41:11.460 and looked

00:41:12.080 at us

00:41:12.480 one last

00:41:13.120 time and

00:41:13.880 then closed

00:41:14.500 them and

00:41:15.520 passed away

00:41:16.260 this story

00:41:19.200 the beginning

00:41:21.200 of it

00:41:21.780 as far as

00:41:23.240 the diagnosis

00:41:24.100 is playing

00:41:25.060 itself out

00:41:25.840 again

00:41:26.420 in

00:41:27.600 Kalamazoo

00:41:28.660 Michigan

00:41:29.260 Russell and

00:41:30.300 Michelle

00:41:30.900 are two

00:41:32.460 parents of

00:41:33.440 a four

00:41:34.520 month old

00:41:35.200 Russell

00:41:39.280 Cruzan the

00:41:40.800 third

00:41:41.180 they refer to

00:41:41.940 him as

00:41:42.220 Bubby

00:41:42.680 he was

00:41:43.920 born just

00:41:45.300 like Charlie

00:41:46.200 great

00:41:47.260 cute

00:41:47.960 healthy

00:41:48.560 and then

00:41:49.720 he wasn't

00:41:51.000 gaining weight

00:41:51.600 he wasn't

00:41:52.140 eating

00:41:52.560 and doctors

00:41:53.920 couldn't figure

00:41:54.600 it out

00:41:55.040 and then

00:41:56.000 finally

00:41:56.540 diagnosed

00:41:57.540 with the

00:41:58.000 same disease

00:41:58.640 that Charlie

00:41:59.140 Gard had

00:41:59.820 we have

00:42:00.900 Russell

00:42:02.000 Curzan

00:42:02.880 and Michelle

00:42:14.340 us first of

00:42:15.060 all how is

00:42:15.680 how's Bubby

00:42:16.680 doing today

00:42:17.620 he's doing

00:42:19.440 pretty good

00:42:19.940 he's taking

00:42:20.400 a nap

00:42:20.840 right now

00:42:21.460 okay

00:42:21.960 he uh

00:42:22.840 yep

00:42:23.380 when you

00:42:25.600 first found

00:42:26.820 out

00:42:27.300 had you

00:42:29.060 did you

00:42:29.520 know who

00:42:29.960 Charlie Gard

00:42:30.520 was

00:42:30.900 not originally

00:42:33.300 no

00:42:33.700 very shortly

00:42:35.040 afterwards

00:42:35.700 yes

00:42:36.060 as soon as

00:42:36.720 we uh

00:42:37.440 you know

00:42:38.240 we were trying

00:42:38.720 to do research

00:42:39.360 into his

00:42:40.280 condition

00:42:40.820 which you

00:42:41.560 know they

00:42:41.900 they both

00:42:42.400 have

00:42:42.580 mitochondrial

00:42:43.160 DNA

00:42:43.440 depletion

00:42:43.920 syndrome

00:42:44.240 it's just

00:42:44.760 different

00:42:45.220 gene

00:42:45.740 mutations

00:42:46.260 causing

00:42:47.420 it

00:42:47.640 they're

00:42:47.800 both

00:42:48.120 encephalomyopathy

00:42:49.360 but uh

00:42:51.060 as soon as

00:42:51.620 we googled

00:42:52.260 you know

00:42:52.660 his condition

00:42:53.280 of course

00:42:53.700 Charlie popped

00:42:54.340 up and we

00:42:55.120 we started

00:42:56.020 looking into

00:42:56.580 his story

00:42:57.060 have you

00:42:58.080 talked to

00:42:58.620 the um

00:43:00.240 Charlie's

00:43:00.740 parents

00:43:01.080 we did

00:43:02.940 we did

00:43:03.620 originally

00:43:04.020 when we

00:43:04.540 had first

00:43:05.080 found out

00:43:05.500 me and

00:43:05.860 Connie

00:43:06.100 talked a

00:43:06.560 little bit

00:43:06.880 back and

00:43:07.300 forth

00:43:07.520 but obviously

00:43:08.100 things have

00:43:08.680 been really

00:43:09.140 uh

00:43:09.480 overwhelming

00:43:10.000 for them

00:43:10.720 and

00:43:11.120 yeah

00:43:12.120 they're

00:43:12.480 quite busy

00:43:13.300 so um

00:43:14.700 hopefully

00:43:15.560 um

00:43:16.560 you were

00:43:16.980 going to

00:43:17.220 tell me

00:43:17.560 that things

00:43:18.180 are quite

00:43:18.800 different

00:43:19.260 here in

00:43:19.640 America

00:43:20.020 than they

00:43:20.560 are

00:43:20.920 uh

00:43:21.920 overseas

00:43:22.500 can you

00:43:23.220 tell me

00:43:23.500 about

00:43:24.340 um

00:43:25.100 so far

00:43:25.780 yeah

00:43:26.060 we have

00:43:26.460 definitely

00:43:26.860 found

00:43:27.500 that uh

00:43:28.460 that things

00:43:29.680 are quite

00:43:30.140 different

00:43:30.400 we have

00:43:30.980 the capability

00:43:32.360 to get

00:43:32.920 treatment

00:43:33.340 wherever we

00:43:34.680 want to

00:43:35.160 right now

00:43:35.680 we've

00:43:36.120 been

00:43:37.020 inpatient

00:43:37.640 at uh

00:43:38.500 our local

00:43:39.220 hospital

00:43:39.700 a few times

00:43:40.420 Bronson

00:43:40.840 we love

00:43:41.200 them

00:43:41.420 and uh

00:43:42.840 you know

00:43:43.540 if we

00:43:44.200 think that

00:43:44.680 he needs

00:43:45.000 to go

00:43:45.220 somewhere

00:43:45.520 else

00:43:45.760 or he

00:43:46.060 thinks

00:43:46.380 he needs

00:43:46.940 to go

00:43:48.080 somewhere

00:43:48.380 else

00:43:48.660 then

00:43:48.960 they're

00:43:49.480 very

00:43:49.800 willing

00:43:50.140 to work

00:43:50.820 with us

00:43:51.220 to make

00:43:51.560 that happen

00:43:52.140 also we're

00:43:53.200 just we're

00:43:53.780 free to make

00:43:54.340 an appointment

00:43:54.720 wherever we

00:43:55.300 want for him

00:43:55.820 to see any

00:43:56.300 specialist

00:43:56.720 that we

00:43:57.100 want

00:43:57.380 have you

00:43:57.920 reached out

00:43:58.400 to the

00:43:58.680 specialist

00:43:59.080 that uh

00:43:59.900 the guard

00:44:00.520 parents were

00:44:01.060 trying to

00:44:02.080 um

00:44:02.660 have take

00:44:03.660 care of

00:44:04.100 Charlie

00:44:04.360 yes

00:44:05.140 yes we

00:44:05.740 have and

00:44:06.400 he doesn't

00:44:06.940 believe treatment

00:44:07.720 of that sort

00:44:08.620 at this

00:44:08.960 time

00:44:09.340 would do

00:44:10.320 any good

00:44:10.840 at all

00:44:11.200 so does

00:44:13.440 that mean

00:44:13.800 that it

00:44:14.120 might later

00:44:15.200 or it

00:44:16.320 just doesn't

00:44:17.100 apply

00:44:17.680 to your

00:44:18.880 son

00:44:19.080 as far as

00:44:19.420 we know

00:44:19.900 it doesn't

00:44:20.560 apply to

00:44:21.820 to Russell

00:44:22.720 um

00:44:23.460 we're still

00:44:24.060 hoping to

00:44:24.920 look at

00:44:25.320 as look

00:44:25.920 at it

00:44:26.220 as an

00:44:26.520 option

00:44:26.800 right now

00:44:27.280 we are

00:44:27.760 pursuing

00:44:28.280 uh

00:44:29.440 DCA

00:44:30.160 treatment

00:44:30.560 with Boston's

00:44:31.880 Children's

00:44:32.360 Hospital

00:44:32.680 we're hoping

00:44:33.460 that he can

00:44:34.140 be considered

00:44:34.760 for a

00:44:35.560 for a

00:44:36.520 trial of

00:44:37.020 the medication

00:44:37.640 there

00:44:38.040 so what

00:44:40.320 is the

00:44:40.720 prognosis

00:44:41.800 um

00:44:42.840 Russell

00:44:44.280 the prognosis

00:44:44.980 I mean

00:44:45.600 with with

00:44:46.160 no treatment

00:44:46.840 the prognosis

00:44:48.480 is is pretty

00:44:49.440 grim with

00:44:50.000 with the

00:44:50.900 prospect of

00:44:51.860 treatment

00:44:52.340 we we

00:44:53.560 really don't

00:44:54.100 know because

00:44:54.640 it's all

00:44:55.060 experimental

00:44:55.520 but we're

00:44:56.080 hoping that

00:44:56.660 it could

00:44:57.180 help preserve

00:44:58.200 the healthy

00:44:58.720 mitochondria

00:44:59.380 that he

00:44:59.700 has

00:45:00.200 and help

00:45:01.320 uh

00:45:01.860 keep some

00:45:03.060 of the toxic

00:45:03.660 levels in

00:45:04.320 his body

00:45:04.740 down the

00:45:05.140 lactic acid

00:45:05.780 and pneumonia

00:45:06.240 down because

00:45:06.840 those are

00:45:07.240 those are

00:45:07.660 kind of our

00:45:08.120 number one

00:45:08.600 dangers right

00:45:09.320 now

00:45:09.540 so what

00:45:09.960 so what

00:45:10.440 is this

00:45:10.980 how did

00:45:11.320 it first

00:45:11.740 manifest

00:45:12.380 and and

00:45:13.160 and what

00:45:13.860 is the

00:45:14.500 body doing

00:45:15.300 basically

00:45:17.120 how it all

00:45:17.900 starts

00:45:18.480 is me

00:45:20.200 and his

00:45:20.680 mother

00:45:21.020 are both

00:45:21.720 carriers of

00:45:22.560 a gene

00:45:23.000 a chromosome

00:45:23.580 that's bad

00:45:24.180 did you know

00:45:25.100 that in advance

00:45:27.580 no the only way

00:45:29.360 you can figure

00:45:29.880 that out is

00:45:30.580 through

00:45:30.940 genetic testing

00:45:32.260 which nobody

00:45:33.120 gets genetic

00:45:33.760 testing unless

00:45:34.500 there's an issue

00:45:35.140 yes but

00:45:36.480 um so we're

00:45:37.640 both carriers

00:45:38.400 for a bad

00:45:39.060 chromosome and

00:45:39.800 we have a good

00:45:40.240 chromosome and

00:45:41.040 then we both

00:45:41.520 have the same

00:45:42.180 bad chromosome

00:45:42.760 just a different

00:45:43.300 mutation of it

00:45:44.260 so that's how

00:45:46.140 he got it

00:45:46.660 there's like a

00:45:47.240 one in a

00:45:49.140 million chance

00:45:50.400 that two people

00:45:50.940 meet each other

00:45:51.500 they're like that

00:45:52.180 and then it's

00:45:53.180 still like a

00:45:54.520 25% chance

00:45:55.580 one of your

00:45:55.900 kids can get

00:45:56.480 it

00:45:56.660 so um

00:45:58.220 when it

00:45:59.160 started to

00:45:59.740 manifest

00:46:00.100 because I've

00:46:00.760 seen I've

00:46:01.640 seen pictures

00:46:02.560 of baby

00:46:03.560 Russell and

00:46:04.240 you know he

00:46:05.200 looks healthy

00:46:05.760 he looks you

00:46:06.520 know like he's

00:46:07.060 supposed to

00:46:07.480 a little you

00:46:08.280 know porky

00:46:08.960 little fat

00:46:09.540 you know the

00:46:10.220 babies are

00:46:10.620 supposed to

00:46:11.060 and then I've

00:46:12.440 seen recent

00:46:13.440 pictures and

00:46:14.180 he's thin

00:46:15.540 um is that

00:46:17.360 how it first

00:46:18.140 you first noticed

00:46:19.340 was he wasn't

00:46:20.260 eating or

00:46:20.920 well he actually

00:46:22.360 he started out

00:46:23.240 thin and then

00:46:24.960 he just got his

00:46:25.700 porky now

00:46:26.440 right now

00:46:27.440 right now

00:46:27.840 so I've seen

00:46:28.320 the pictures in

00:46:28.880 reverse then

00:46:29.460 okay

00:46:29.800 yeah when

00:46:31.300 the disease

00:46:31.860 originally started

00:46:32.700 manifesting itself

00:46:33.700 it manifested as

00:46:34.980 failure to thrive

00:46:35.720 first he wasn't

00:46:36.520 eating on his

00:46:37.120 own we we

00:46:37.940 uh started with

00:46:38.880 the ng-tube now

00:46:39.640 he has a g-tube

00:46:40.880 placed in his

00:46:41.580 stomach and that

00:46:42.560 has really helped

00:46:43.300 him helped him

00:46:44.240 thrive and got to

00:46:45.160 the point where

00:46:45.600 he's nice chubby

00:46:46.420 plump little guy

00:46:47.200 now

00:46:47.520 so do you guys

00:46:50.160 have insurance

00:46:51.020 yes I I carry

00:46:53.480 insurance through

00:46:54.200 work and we also

00:46:55.100 have uh

00:46:55.960 medicaid to the

00:46:57.120 state

00:46:57.420 so does your

00:46:59.120 insurance cover

00:46:59.880 this

00:47:00.320 they have started

00:47:02.640 to pay

00:47:03.160 something they

00:47:04.620 don't they we're

00:47:05.640 working on the

00:47:06.260 treatment that's what

00:47:06.860 they're working on

00:47:07.380 prior prior authorization

00:47:08.920 for us to go there

00:47:10.060 to be seen and then

00:47:12.120 they'll work on it

00:47:13.420 it all depends how

00:47:14.280 it's billed if it's

00:47:15.120 billed as experimental

00:47:16.040 more than likely not

00:47:17.400 can I ask you don't

00:47:19.340 have to tell me can I

00:47:20.160 ask what insurance

00:47:20.960 carrier it is

00:47:21.840 yes I I carry

00:47:23.880 priority health

00:49:35.860 brave face on for the

00:49:36.980 specialist because I can't when

00:51:30.520 are putting on a brave face if that is

00:51:32.320 you know what there's a difference

00:51:34.920 between putting on a brave face

00:51:36.220 and finding your way to joy they

00:51:42.880 sound to me like it's not a brave face

00:51:45.300 it is and maybe it was just nervous

00:51:47.760 laughter maybe that's what it was but

00:51:49.580 it seems to me that they have found a

00:51:52.280 way to joy and boy that's hard to do

00:51:55.260 as hard to do God bless them now this

00:51:58.260 it can be easily overlooked but your

00:53:37.360 glenn beck program 888-727-BECK is the phone

00:53:55.600 number North Korea has threatened physical

00:53:58.640 action and they are still sabering saber

00:54:02.920 rattling however there's a great article

00:54:06.940 on Daily Wire that talks about the seven

00:54:10.040 times they have said this very thing

00:54:12.760 nuclear strike on the heart of the United

00:54:15.760 States they said that July of this year

00:54:20.020 North Korea threatens nuclear strike if

00:54:22.980 provoked by the Navy they said that in

00:54:25.120 April North Korea threatens attack on

00:54:27.860 America with lighter and smaller nukes that

00:54:31.260 was in March of 2013 North Korea not only

00:54:35.820 claims war is imminent but the country's 0.57

00:54:37.900 military has been given the final

00:54:39.180 authorization to use nukes on the US they

00:54:43.420 will smash the strong will of all United

00:54:46.360 Service personnel and cutting-edge

00:54:49.180 smite a smaller and lighter and

00:54:51.360 diversified nuclear strikes that was said

00:54:54.800 by them in 2013 April I'm glad that

00:54:58.340 they're using diversified strikes I like

00:55:01.160 to see the inclusion of diversity in

00:55:04.160 nuclear war North Korea threatens to burn

00:55:06.960 Manhattan down to ashes with a hydrogen 1.00

00:55:09.980 bomb they gave us that warning in 2016

00:55:14.060 hopefully some of the invasion force will

00:55:16.400 be gender nonspecific that's what I'm

00:55:19.440 well just like a Dunkirk I hope yes yeah

00:55:22.680 right yeah I could barely watch Dunkirk because

00:55:25.620 there were I didn't see any Mexicans very

00:55:28.060 few very few didn't see any it was almost

00:55:30.240 like no Mexicans lived in Belgium at the

00:55:33.140 time where that's how ridiculous it is

00:55:37.720 where was the inclusion of the Muslim

00:55:39.400 fighting force I know right you know

00:55:42.080 what I mean well that stuck out like a

00:55:44.080 sore thumb there's so much discussion about

00:55:46.140 their individual religions that you know

00:55:47.840 that none of them were Muslim exactly

00:55:49.300 right exactly right right the North Korea 0.53

00:55:53.740 also threatened to strike Austin New York

00:55:56.140 City and Los Angeles in a chart labeled

00:55:58.860 US mainland strike plan that came out in

00:56:01.420 2013 so in other words the whole point is

00:56:03.820 they've made these you know threats before

00:56:08.000 did you see the did you see the missile if

00:56:12.460 they took a map and superimposed it over

00:56:16.440 something that was in their you know defense

00:56:18.700 strategy room where it showed the missile

00:56:21.260 trajectory and so they took a US map and

00:56:24.020 transposed it on top of it and or you know

00:56:27.060 superimposed it on top of it and it shows

00:56:29.580 that it's Los Angeles I think Santa Fe

00:56:33.240 Dallas I think it went over either Dallas or it

00:56:37.640 might have been Oklahoma City then into

00:56:41.060 Georgia Atlanta and then you know off the off

00:56:45.660 the coast it would be a shame if they missed

00:56:47.600 us all together and it was like 500 miles

00:56:50.960 too far

00:56:51.620 but just want to let you know we're in

00:56:57.680 that I mean scary to happen right to us

00:57:01.240 scary we should say of all the stuff because

00:57:02.860 you know a lot of people focused on the

00:57:04.400 legislation that has and maybe hasn't

00:57:06.640 passed over the Trump presidency I mean we

00:57:09.640 have made real progress with ISIS I mean

00:57:11.640 some of these generals he's you know you

00:57:14.240 know appointed who we've praised at the

00:57:16.100 time of the appointments have really done a

00:57:17.960 good job in advancing this much beyond

00:57:20.240 what Obama was doing and that is a change

00:57:23.060 that's not legislation based but it is a

00:57:24.780 good change I mean they have beat back

00:57:26.640 you know ISIS a good amount so far it's a 0.86

00:57:30.160 real positive for the world and it seems

00:57:32.020 balanced it seems like the strong rhetoric

00:57:35.660 which we've always believed in is good and

00:57:38.940 balanced the softness as well to hold it

00:57:42.600 all together so there's a woman who is

00:57:57.180 sitting next to a man who is texting she

00:58:01.140 was on a Southwest Airlines flight from

00:58:03.140 Seattle to San Jose California this

00:58:06.400 happens this happened on Monday and she

00:58:08.760 is flying and she happens to have a phone

00:58:13.760 he's texting and he has it in big font and

00:58:17.680 so he's he's texting and what he's texting

00:58:20.820 is about how enjoyable the child

00:58:23.740 molestation has been and actually I think

00:58:27.600 it was a woman yeah a woman was no it was a 1.00

00:58:33.240 guy that was saying you know oh this is

00:58:36.040 great and blah blah blah who he's sending

00:58:37.660 the text to I have no idea and she's kind

00:58:40.800 of like seeing this like I think that guy

00:58:45.120 I don't think this is a joke so she's

00:58:47.520 sitting behind in the seat behind and she

00:58:50.420 starts taking pictures of the texts then

00:58:54.840 at some point she gets up and goes talks

00:58:56.900 to the stewardess and says I want to show

00:58:59.120 you what this guy's been texting and the

00:59:02.440 stewardesses are freaked out so they alert

00:59:05.400 the pilot the pilot the pilot alerts police

00:59:08.820 they meet the texter at the airport as it

00:59:14.220 as it turns out the suspected recipient of

00:59:20.500 the messages was Gail Burnsworth a woman

00:59:24.800 50 her home was in Tacoma Washington she

00:59:29.060 was arrested because the children the her

00:59:34.300 children in her care five and seven years

00:59:37.180 old were the ones that had been victimized

00:59:40.240 and he just wanted to say hey by the way

00:59:44.880 thanks it was a great weekend so she was in

00:59:49.180 on it obviously right not the woman on the 0.87

00:59:51.340 plane no yes the mother yes yes Wow if you

00:59:55.360 can call her that no you can't I'm gonna go

00:59:58.640 with no

00:59:59.060 now listen to this a law professor is

01:00:03.260 saying that Congress has to act on

01:00:06.460 regulation of the sex bot industry and I

01:00:10.060 hate to sound like Austin Powers but

01:00:12.380 apparently now this is real you know it's a

01:00:18.200 different kind Jeffy there are now sex

01:00:24.060 robots that are that you can program to react

01:00:29.260 to you as if you're raping them yeah they 0.78

01:00:32.860 can also I mean it's they react to emotions

01:00:35.060 they can be sad they can be happy they can

01:00:37.060 be whatever you terrified particularly in this

01:00:40.260 that's that sounds great apparently that's Wow I disagree with you on that one yeah and also there are those that are being programmed to act as if they are being raped and they are now making them child size and listen to this the obvious first step would be have hearings and to do studies to determine how serious this threat is and if there are any real benefits to having sex bots.

01:01:05.260 threat is and if there are any real benefits to having sex bots programmed to uh to simulate being

01:01:12.760 raped okay now the argument is that perhaps they'll do that to the robot rather than an actual

01:01:22.140 person yeah but seeing that it's all about power and control and really not even about women um

01:01:30.500 i don't think that these rapists would be seeing the difference between a robot and a woman uh 0.99

01:01:39.700 maybe it's just me i think this is a disturbing trend um that maybe we should probably start

01:01:49.620 thinking about we have so many things that are happening now uh with ai and our world is going

01:01:55.560 to be so different in 10 years we're just we're just not going to recognize it and all of this

01:02:02.420 groundwork is being laid right now all of the things that we're like yeah yeah yeah that's you

01:02:07.060 know that's crazy that'll never happen that's all being laid right now all of these decisions are

01:02:11.880 being made right now and generally by giant corporations we were talking earlier about

01:02:18.340 google and the firing of the google engineer does google have a right to fire that engineer yes

01:02:25.180 should they fire that engineer well in my opinion not when you ask for help on you know their

01:02:32.640 diversity programs and hey we're inclusive and we want to make sure that all voices are heard

01:02:37.580 and then when you express that you know in a in a very cogent and scientific way and lead with look

01:02:46.320 neither side is 100 right here but we shouldn't shut down one side or the other we really need to

01:02:52.760 come together and start talking about these things to fire that person sends a chilling message

01:02:59.320 through the company i'm concerned about it because if google is so convinced that it's right

01:03:06.120 and righteous what stops them from taking this in the future and filtering things the way they want to

01:03:14.720 filter what's stopping us from being this this country that is run by corporations i've never been that guy

01:03:24.720 but if you're telling me that facebook google and apple are not the companies that the left was

01:03:36.140 warning us about they all thought it was going to be exxon yeah exxon controls the energy but there's also

01:03:43.940 other ways to get energy now this is the information and the the the glancing into our lives and shaping of our minds

01:03:55.940 between apple amazon facebook and google is there a more important and critical group of companies

01:04:06.880 that could change the world overnight should they choose

01:04:11.300 no probably not i don't think there's ever been companies that have been more important than those

01:04:19.060 and i certainly don't want the government involved in that i'm not suggesting that

01:04:26.260 but should these companies become more arrogant and say well we're all about science

01:04:33.800 and you're just a science denier what stops them from completely cutting you off

01:04:39.620 from everything well and that's why it's important to not look at these things like their utilities

01:04:45.040 like you can't just depend on these things you know i mean it is up to us if google wants to delete

01:04:51.980 every single right-wing thing from their search engine that is their right they absolutely can do it at

01:04:58.000 any time now it's bad for their business model and you'll lose half the country from going to your site

01:05:02.020 but it's their it's absolutely their right to do that and i think like we obviously have this idea that

01:05:08.960 um you know for example someone with nazi propaganda right if someone wrote a memo to the entire company

01:05:14.400 saying you know what hitler was right and the jews uh should should have been in the gas chambers 1.00

01:05:18.860 everyone would be like okay yes we get it there are lines right to that we would understand him being fired

01:05:25.340 for for something like that um the issue is the left in this country is trying to turn

01:05:32.340 very basic human truths into as poisonous as nazi propaganda yes and if we allow that to occur

01:05:40.900 then you know what yeah every time you say you want lower taxes you'll get fired like that there is an

01:05:46.800 end to that road eventually where we get there and that is the conclusion to it if we aren't sitting

01:05:51.840 here and making sure that when these things happen we do fight them you're not that doesn't mean you're

01:05:56.220 going to change the culture of google overall but you have to push back somebody has to stand but but

01:06:02.760 you know i am more convinced that almost everything that we have done in the last that i have done in

01:06:08.200 the last five years um has been um misguided um in the way of people don't need more information on news

01:06:19.040 they really don't you can get all the information you want on news a hundred different places what they

01:06:25.080 do need are facts they need education they need to know history know the difference an unbiased look

01:06:36.000 at communism fascism uh capitalism understand what those things are learn critical thinking not

01:06:46.240 what what to think but how to think how do i search for the answers how do i how do i how do i find

01:06:54.620 um the truth myself is there truth those questions that socrates wrestled with are the same questions that we

01:07:05.640 should be wrestling with now and we're just expecting google to solve them and they're just going to tell us

01:07:13.680 and then we'll just go along with it listen to this there is now connecticut college uh sorry

01:07:21.780 connecticut connecticut college psychology professor joan chrysler is talking about fat shaming

01:07:30.220 she says fat shaming speaking with obese patients about losing weight she argues that fat patients are told to lose

01:07:44.660 weight by their no therapy yep such shaming she says is mentally and physically harmful and can stigmatize

01:07:54.800 a patient and lead to a misdiagnosis asserting that doctors repeatedly advise for weight loss for fat

01:08:01.440 patients while recommending cat scans blood work or physical therapy or other average weight patients

01:08:06.500 she argues recommending different treatments for patients with the same condition based on their

01:08:11.360 weight is unethical and a form of malpractice by the way this is part of her presentation weapons of mass 1.00

01:08:19.820 distraction confronting size ism go ahead and laugh okay

01:08:28.520 i mean that's how is it how is it fat shaming i mean it look it's no if you've watched me if you've

01:08:40.000 seen me in the last few years you've seen that i've gained 40 pounds and it part of that 40 pounds has

01:08:46.680 been from chocolate cake and i've enjoyed probably 20 of the 40 pounds but there is also something else

01:08:53.860 going on with my body and i mean i cannot lose the weight and i really i mean i went on atkins and

01:09:01.920 gained five pounds and i was on strict atkins that i should have lost like 15 pounds i went to a doctor

01:09:09.360 just recently and he said that's not possible and i'm like uh yeah it is it is possible it's happening

01:09:15.320 to me okay so then after a doctor telling me and me agreeing not willingly but agreeing you gotta eat

01:09:24.100 smaller portions you gotta you know you gotta exercise you gotta move you gotta do all that stuff

01:09:30.000 okay you're doing all that stuff and it's still not working well if you got a doctor who's just like

01:09:36.340 you gotta stop eating you gotta stop eating doctor i'm not oh you gotta stop eating you're just a fat 0.92

01:09:43.620 fat fatty fat soul that's that's a bad thing but how is it that we are we could be going down the road

01:09:54.420 of socialism where we have to tell people if you want treatment you have to be a certain size

01:10:01.800 you can't smoke you can't do these things you have to exercise or we cannot as a society afford your hip 0.89

01:10:10.740 replacement or knee replacement surgery that's what's happening overseas and it's going to happen

01:10:15.540 here but if i tell you you have to lose weight how dare you the same socialist will say that's fat

01:10:23.500 shaming it's the google thing all over again right it's prioritizing feelings over physical truths

01:10:30.900 uh in both stories i mean think about that you're putting someone in medical danger because you don't

01:10:36.680 want to make them feel bad that they're overweight and yet and yet those same socialists will not have

01:10:43.340 a problem with shaming people like the guy at google who was just fired what was that if not

01:10:49.240 intellectual shaming you're a bigot you're a racist you're a sexist you have no place here at google

01:10:57.060 you know stew said look at his resume he's not going to have a hard time finding a job i disagree with

01:11:02.740 you you're the guy fired from google because you're a sexist you think that guy gets hired in any big

01:11:09.640 company and somebody doesn't follow up on that's where he's working that company hired him they will

01:11:17.900 i mean again you have an advantage if you can get past the fact that you're going to be criticized

01:11:24.920 for having diverse opinions if you can get past that as a company you have an advantage over other

01:11:30.360 companies you can get this guy probably below market value because you if you can just take the fact

01:11:36.820 that you're gonna get some tweets for a few weeks i wish we had a job for him i'd hire him well i mean i'm

01:11:42.080 sure he could do you know no it's like he would come here it'd be like dealing with ants he'd be like

01:11:47.060 why am i talking to glenn he's like an intellectual ant no yeah we get a lot of seen my resume get a

01:11:52.740 lot of that from our resumes and now and now this north korea has responded to the u.s uh drafted

01:11:57.980 sanctions adopted by the u.n security council quote there is no bigger mistake than the united

01:12:02.920 states believing it can land uh that its land is safe because it's across the ocean the north korean

01:12:10.560 response also said it would never relinquish its missile and nuclear arsenals i just saw a report

01:12:16.920 today on how many people are willing to accept a nuclear north korea in america it was 11 percent

01:12:25.980 and i thought this is the dumbest survey i've ever seen because how many people are willing to have

01:12:31.920 millions of deaths to prove that point people don't understand how close we are to really bad stuff

01:13:21.000 the glenn beck program i have to tell you this is not going to be this is not going to go well

01:13:35.140 um for some people um in reading the uh book by dinesh d'souza the big lie exposing the nazi roots

01:13:46.520 of the american left where he is comparing hitler's you know 1927 speeches to the democratic party

01:13:55.920 platform uh where he is showing the um the events of the past in comparison to the events of the days

01:14:06.000 uh and the actual historic roots uh here in america he's not going to say anything controversial

01:14:13.420 no i don't think so no i don't think so the big lie exposing the nazi roots of the american left

01:14:21.360 dinesh d'souza joins us when we come back

01:14:25.780 the glenn beck program

01:14:38.340 mercury

01:14:40.740 you

01:14:51.360 uh okay a uh a friend of ours who has gone to jail for his opinion uh and uh so much more

01:15:05.280 he's not gonna have any difficulty with his new book called the big lie exposing the nazi roots

01:15:14.680 of the american left dinesh d'souza is here and we begin right now

01:15:21.680 i will make a stand i will raise my voice i will hold your hand

01:15:29.040 because we are one i will beat my drum i have made my choice we will overcome

01:15:37.120 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program welcome to the

01:15:48.960 program dinesh how are you good to be on are you are you ready for the pushback that you're going to

01:15:55.820 get on this book well i'm excited about the book because i you know a lot of my books i i know what

01:16:03.540 i'm going to say when i start out and i have an argument and i develop the evidence and i lay it

01:16:09.820 out so for example in the hillary book hillary's america i i knew that there was a long complicity

01:16:16.780 of the democratic party with racism for example it was just a matter of documenting it laying it out

01:16:21.360 here with this book um of course i had read a few things about it jonah goldberg's liberal fascism

01:16:28.120 um i noticed that there were sort of eerie similarities between things going on on both

01:16:34.260 sides of the atlantic and it's really interesting to compare for example look at the ku klux klan in

01:16:38.320 america uh and then look at the nazi brown shirts right they both grow at about the same time they

01:16:45.200 both get three to five million members in both groups you have people who love to wear ridiculous

01:16:50.360 costumes uh love to do songs and salutes love to do nightly raids uh love to humiliate people are

01:16:57.440 into racial terrorism in both cases they're the wing of a political party in one case the democratic

01:17:02.780 party the clan in the other case the nazi party so i thought you know this is going to be very

01:17:08.140 interesting to develop these parallels but what i didn't realize is that there actually was you may

01:17:13.260 say intimate relations oh yeah um between the left in this country and the democrats and the fascists

01:17:20.120 in italy and the nazis in germany and all of this has been covered up yeah the the the connections

01:17:25.520 between the early american progressive um movement uh i mean i have letters and documentation myself

01:17:33.320 from the i think it's the human betterment society in in california uh from the germans saying thank you

01:17:43.420 for coming up you have woken a country of 60 million people to this eugenics project and uh hitler is going 0.92

01:17:52.280 to get fully behind this i mean it it they were deeply tied into what became the holocaust and it's

01:18:01.620 all buried and proud of their association yes very proud i'm kind of amused about there's this guy

01:18:07.140 madison grant who was a um a progressive head of the new york zoological society yeah um a big advocate

01:18:15.300 of um of um eugenics and he gets a letter from hitler he's super excited so he goes to these other

01:18:23.200 other progressive icon and he goes hey check out my letter from hitler and that guy goes wait right

01:18:28.520 here goes to his library produces his letter from hitler so this is a really good example of how the

01:18:33.780 american progressives were aware that they have they were shaping the nazi uh sterilization program but 0.54

01:18:41.420 also the euthanasia program yes yes and they were very proud of it yes um i posted a facebook post um

01:18:49.880 uh maybe two years ago uh and it was the the national socialist party platform in the 20s

01:19:00.420 and it seemed very familiar to me you um talk about a speech that hitler gave in 27 where he said

01:19:12.080 we're all socialists we are the enemies of today's capitalist system of exploitation and we are determined

01:19:18.680 to destroy this system under all conditions um they had a 25 point program the nationalization of large

01:19:26.480 corporations trusts government control of banking and credit the seizure of land without compensation

01:19:32.360 if it was for public use the splitting of large land holdings into smaller units confiscation of

01:19:37.720 war profits prosecution of bankers and other lenders on grounds of usury abolition of incomes unearned by

01:19:45.000 work profit sharing for workers in all large companies broader pension system paying higher benefits

01:19:51.000 and universal free health care and universal free education if you read that platform at a democratic

01:19:57.380 national convention you'd get thunderous applause and uh and i think that's true of mussolini speeches

01:20:04.160 for example um fascism and nazism were firmly on the left and uh in one of the chapters i traced the

01:20:12.160 genesis of fascism it arose out of a what's called the crisis of marxism marx had made all these

01:20:19.340 predictions that um communist revolution was coming to germany was coming to england and when it didn't

01:20:25.880 happen the really smart socialists sat around they scratched their heads and they said we've got it we've

01:20:31.120 got to revise marx we see he got something fundamentally wrong and in the 20th century out of that crisis of

01:20:37.940 marxism come two new things one leninist bolshevism and the other mussolini's fascism they both are

01:20:45.660 spin-offs from socialism they're on the same side of the aisle and because of world war ii and because

01:20:51.400 hitler was on one side the soviets were on the other this has made it really easy for progressives

01:20:56.180 to pretend like if communism is on the left fascism must be on the right but this misses of course the

01:21:03.640 fact that sister ideologies do go to war and they're they're they're relatively the same

01:21:11.440 one is about workers of the world and one is about workers of the nation uniting it's it's pretty much

01:21:18.780 nationalism versus uh world uh domination under a grand unifying theory um of we're all in this one

01:21:30.540 together but it's the same awful stew is it not it absolutely is and even that distinction is blurred

01:21:38.100 because although lenin talked about international socialism as soon as stalin came in yeah he said

01:21:44.880 mother russia socialism in one country so if you think about it stalin was a national socialist just

01:21:51.420 like hitler so um help me out on uh where have you you've seen what's going on with google absolutely

01:21:59.880 um this is not going to lead anywhere good um and i i i can't believe that those people who have said

01:22:12.820 they've been kept in a closet for their viewpoint or their sexuality or whatever their whole life

01:22:18.420 are now shoving people into closets and and silencing people i i don't understand how

01:22:28.160 the average person the average democrat isn't starting to become afraid of what they're unleashing

01:22:38.980 in universities uh and in in the silencing of those who can make a a reasonable rational and

01:22:47.840 scientific argument so so this really is the fascist mindset and i say this because typically if we look

01:22:54.720 around america now we would think that the best example of fascism would be say these antifa guys

01:23:00.420 dressed in masks carrying weapons bike locks and bats they're there to threaten to intimidate to beat

01:23:07.920 people up so they look a lot like mussolini's brown black shirts from the 20s but i think there's a

01:23:13.380 deeper fascism that's a much bigger problem than the guys on the street at berkeley and that is the

01:23:18.800 fascism of the institutions so the nazis had a term called gleichschaltung which basically means

01:23:24.900 coordination but their idea was we have a society everybody's got to march in line in lockstep they've

01:23:31.640 got to be in sync with nazi ideology and if they fall out we have to pressure them we have to cajole

01:23:38.400 them we have to force them and this gleichschaltung is now in america it's on the left it's called

01:23:44.340 political correctness but i don't just mean you use the wrong word i'm talking about the way in

01:23:49.700 which hollywood the media academia and now corporations like google if you fall athwart

01:23:56.460 the ideology they will they will ruin you they'll fire you they will humiliate you uh they will make

01:24:02.640 you into a pariah um this kind of thing is is very scary and um and it has a deep parallel with what

01:24:10.180 was going on in europe in the middle of the century you know i have deep respect for you

01:24:14.100 right right oh no that's what he says to me usually when he insults i don't mean i'm not going to insult

01:24:21.680 you um those on the right who do not agree with my point of view of donald trump have done all of

01:24:31.280 those things that you have described in fact they have been as vicious in some ways more vicious

01:24:39.100 than the the soros group that went after me on the left there is a there is a love in this country

01:24:49.200 right now of winning at all costs and destroying anyone who stands against you that is truly frightening

01:24:58.240 you know i have to agree with that i um i i was thinking the other day that when i came to america in

01:25:06.020 the late 70s i'm a young reaganite from my college days american politics was a gentleman's quarrel

01:25:13.120 and one could envision reagan and tip o'neill having it out but then you could you could see

01:25:18.200 them having a beer afterward uh and at the end of the day there was a shared belief that you know tip

01:25:24.000 of o'neill you know he loved america and we we all want america to be prosperous we want america to

01:25:31.080 be strong we want america to be the world's leader we might disagree about how to share the spoils

01:25:36.360 uh what should how american prosperity should be distributed but it's a debate about means not

01:25:42.740 about ends and it just occurred to me how how much all of that has broken down now i don't i blame

01:25:48.940 the left because i think that the breakdown started with obama and by that i mean the deploying of the

01:25:54.380 government against your critics uh the willingness to sort of treat your critic not just as a political

01:26:00.000 adversary but as a real enemy somebody you'd like to see put out of business altogether and i think

01:26:06.580 that it is that dysfunctional atmosphere that produced trump in other words the ordinary republican

01:26:11.460 goes we appointed all these nice guys one after the other there was bob dole self-deprecating and witty

01:26:18.060 there was john mccain war hero there was the super squeaky clean cut romney and yet all these guys

01:26:24.780 began to helplessly flail in the wind as they were converted into lucifer by the other side all right

01:26:30.800 enough of all that we're gonna get a real tough guy and he may be not be all that straight around the

01:26:35.880 edges but he can throw a punch and he can take a punch we've got to fight like those guys so it is this

01:26:41.620 kind of bare-knuckled atmosphere that we're in now and i don't think that it is you know to say that i

01:26:48.520 mean you know me where i stand on obama um but to say that it was obama i mean today is the uh today

01:26:54.520 is the anniversary of the nixon resignation enemies list nixon and i think this is the real problem

01:27:02.140 in america we keep looking at left and right we keep which is bogus in america the way it is you know

01:27:10.720 they've made the left and right in america to be the european left and right and that is not true

01:27:17.900 right is small government almost anarchy and left is total government be it fascism totalitarianism

01:27:27.460 whatever um it's that those are our two rights the left and right in america but it has become this

01:27:34.560 democratic and republican thing when richard nixon was a gigantic progressive it's progressivism

01:27:42.920 in the early 20th century that was was fueling much of what was happening in germany and um teaching

01:27:52.740 and they were teaching us in the same way i mean it was a cozy get-together and when you have

01:28:00.600 progressivism not recognized in both parties on both sides as people who just want control of other

01:28:10.720 people that's where we're having this battle because we can point to each other and say well

01:28:16.620 you did this yeah because my side has that gene in it too absolutely well progressivism was in both

01:28:23.640 parties even at the beginning now the republican version of it was softer than the democratic version

01:28:29.380 so for example teddy roosevelt although he used some darwinist rhetoric about survival of the fittest

01:28:35.140 was thinking mainly about foreign policy and if you talk to him about something like forced

01:28:39.980 sterilization i think he would family man that he was i will blanch a little bit although i will get

01:28:45.220 i will get you i have upstairs i have letters from him that will horrify you on sterilization and the

01:28:52.500 selecting of we're going to look at humans i think the quote is um like the dumbest farmers even

01:28:58.500 even even on farms we don't let our best stock breed with our worst stock i mean he was pretty clear on

01:29:06.100 some of that spooky stuff yeah i've i've read some things that have made my you know my eyebrows go up

01:29:11.220 and um uh but um this all took such a bad turn in the 20s and 30s in europe um one of the discoveries

01:29:20.660 in the book that really startled me was the degree to which when the nazis got together to write the

01:29:25.820 nuremberg laws and they were all sitting around the table all these top guy head of the justice

01:29:29.860 department and so on explain for people who don't know what the nuremberg so the nuremberg laws were

01:29:34.140 the laws that made jews into second class citizens they involved segregation of jews into ghettos

01:29:39.260 state-sponsored discrimination keeping the jews out of certain professions and later they were

01:29:44.580 modified for confiscation of jewish property and so on so the nazis go they they had a it's one of the

01:29:51.140 nazi meetings we have transcripts of why because the nazis go we're the first people in the world

01:29:56.200 to be creating a racist state it's fantastic so watch us do it and one of the guys who was there

01:30:02.440 had studied in the united states and he goes time out guys sorry to interrupt the party but a racial

01:30:07.740 state has already been created by the democratic party in america we're not the first people to this

01:30:12.980 picnic they've already done it and all the questions we're exploring intermarriage between groups

01:30:18.640 segregation discrimination they've been there for years so the nazis then immediately consult

01:30:25.660 the democratic laws let's remember all every segregation law in the south passed by a democratic

01:30:31.220 legislature signed by a democratic governor enforced by democratic officials so the nazis take a look at

01:30:36.560 this and they go fantastic let's just cross out the word black right in the word jew and we're off to

01:30:43.100 the races now to me the most sort of poignantly pungent aspect of this debate is at one point

01:30:50.060 the nazis begin to debate who is a jew because there's a lot of intermarriage that's been going

01:30:55.420 on since the middle ages and the nazis are not sure if you can classify someone as a jew who's only let's

01:31:01.060 say half jewish again the nazi who had studied in america i think his name was krieger he goes problem

01:31:07.420 solved in america they have the one drop rule basically if you have any black any visible blackness 0.93

01:31:14.180 in you you're black and this is where the whole story gets kind of crushing the nazis look at each

01:31:19.140 other and they go that's too much basically they're saying the democrats are too racist for us

01:31:24.600 we can't go with the one drop rule and and in fact the nuremberg laws as they were written you need

01:31:31.020 three jewish grandparents to count as jewish so the the nazis you may say took a softer line

01:31:38.300 than the democratic party on the question of racial identity the name of the book is the big lie

01:33:28.400 that you are um uh talking about in here in one of the chapters you talk about how fdr um was america's

01:33:37.160 first fascist dictator um and people find so they find that so offensive but they they are not again

01:33:48.180 looking back at the time at the time the progressives and many americans this is before

01:33:56.540 it had all been discredited thought that that's what a big state that the big state was the scientific

01:34:02.820 way to go it's very difficult for us in the aftermath of world war ii in an era where fascism

01:34:09.960 and nazism have been completely stained by the odor of holocaust it's really hard for us to think why 0.76

01:34:15.460 anyone would have been attracted to those ideologies and so in order to understand this

01:34:20.400 it's almost like you've got to put some historical you've got to get in a time machine

01:34:24.800 and go before those things happened um and and see what appealed about fascism so the fascists

01:34:32.840 uh talked about society as an as an organism and each individual is a cell your your life has no

01:34:40.880 value by itself but like any cell your value is what you contribute to the whole pick it back up

01:34:47.000 with their dinesh d'souza the big lie when we come back

01:34:50.140 this is the glenn beck program mercury

01:35:06.220 the glenn beck program dinesh d'souza is here the big lie is the book exposing the nazi roots of

01:35:15.620 the american left uh he was explaining how fdr uh was america's first fascist dictator and i know

01:35:25.280 that sounds uh horrible to say now but we have to look at history as it is at the time they thought

01:35:32.140 fascism and totalitarianism big state was the future they thought it was the new scientific

01:35:38.060 progressive way uh and all of this other stuff where you know people got together in their towns it

01:35:45.140 was just outdated and old and antiquated and wouldn't work socialism and fascism and progressivism

01:35:51.200 these are the three great collectivist movements of the last century uh it was an era in which words

01:35:57.380 like dictator were positive yes because the dictator is somebody who gave instructions and got things

01:36:02.020 done totalitarianism for mussolini was a good word mussolini's point is you can't have a fragmented

01:36:08.020 society we need to have a totalitarian society in which everything is operating toward a singular

01:36:14.780 purpose it's nebuchadnezzar i mean it's as old as history itself nebuchadnezzar let's make bricks if

01:36:22.400 we all make bricks if we all are the same and we're working to a one goal we'll be able to build a tower

01:36:28.360 to reach heaven it's the same thing and it never works and and and and the progressives like the

01:36:34.340 fascist saw democracy as a mechanism to achieve power but not something to take too seriously

01:36:40.720 i mean when fdr's new deal schemes were being blocked by the supreme court what does fdr do he

01:36:47.420 basically goes let's stack the court let let me appoint six new justices so i essentially have

01:36:53.180 created a majority and uh the only reason he didn't do it is the court essentially buckled in

01:36:59.260 and gave in to him now the progressives today in the textbooks they wittily describe this as

01:37:04.080 the switch in time that saved nine they're basically talking about the trampling of democratic

01:37:09.620 institutions as some kind of a joke uh but that's how fdr treated it and so there's a fascist streak i

01:37:16.340 wouldn't say fdr became a full-fledged fascist dictator but there was a fascist streak in him

01:37:21.080 that is exactly why mussolini and even hitler thought he was like them so you have to read a book

01:37:27.560 they're hard to find um but i think i actually have an extra copy and when you do find them

01:37:32.400 sometimes this section of the book is taken out um but it was written by stuart chase who you know

01:37:38.280 uh named the new deal um and he was instrumental in the shaping of the of the totalitarian

01:37:47.060 view of the government so he he writes a book called uh the road on which we're traveling

01:37:54.840 and it's after it's just at the end of the war when we know we're going to win and he says okay so

01:38:01.620 after the war um these things are going to happen it's towards the end of the book and he says

01:38:07.280 we now know that um fascism and totalitarianism are discredited so i don't know what we're going to call

01:38:16.200 this but will for our purposes here just call it system x and he says the united states now through

01:38:24.440 the last 20 years has put so much in that you will see system x which is totalitarianism and fascism

01:38:32.520 he just couldn't bring himself to call it that but he explains how it has been grown and put in

01:38:37.560 under the guise of freedom well interestingly if you think about the democrats today

01:38:43.680 and ask this question are there economic policies and i'm thinking here not just obama and hillary

01:38:49.820 but let's say bernie elizabeth warren are their economic policies more socialist in the marxist sense

01:38:56.480 or are they more fascist now if you look up fascism it says the definition is really clear

01:39:01.200 state-run capitalism if we think of obamacare um we have private corporations uh we have private

01:39:09.540 hospitals we have private insurance companies but the government is directing them the government

01:39:14.860 setting prices deciding on reimbursements deciding who gets coverage and for what it is what they've

01:39:20.800 said china is the new model which is state-run capitalism and then under obama state-run control

01:39:28.020 of banks insurance uh investment companies the energy sector increasingly higher education

01:39:34.240 so this is you know the old socialists would go and nationalize it all the socialists would take over

01:39:40.740 the energy industry and the government would go take out oil in midland texas but we don't do that

01:39:45.060 our economic policies that the democrats advocate are more classically fascist you go to midland texas

01:39:51.440 you drill the oil out you put it in the barrel and label it and then we will saunter in

01:39:56.320 to kind of take control of it and tell you what to do with that wealth so um

01:40:01.480 reading your book there's very little in there that isn't well documented and you're making a strong

01:40:14.260 case um however we are in a place now to where nobody even knows what fascism is nobody even knows

01:40:24.380 what communism is it's just a smear that both sides use you're making an intellectual case

01:40:31.440 and saying this is what it is and this is what the roots are here in america you can agree or disagree

01:40:37.700 but we're not going to have that conversation we're not going to have a conversation of you bring your

01:40:42.920 facts to the table i'll bring other facts to the table and we'll see which ones really hold up

01:40:48.400 and the test of time and scrutiny how do we how do you share facts like this without jamming fingers

01:41:00.500 into the other person's chest um and and being able to have a dialogue if we don't start if we don't

01:41:09.860 come to a place where martin luther king was where he said stop trying to win you've got to reconcile

01:41:18.500 if we can't come to the reconciliation of just ourselves with the historic truth we're doomed

01:41:26.400 now i i agree completely that that is the goal in other words king's beloved community that's where

01:41:33.280 we're trying to go here's the problem that for a generation for example as long as the left felt

01:41:39.000 that they could play the race card with impunity they were not going to stop as long as republicans

01:41:45.380 were on the defensive no we're not racist as long as ken melman of the rnc was running around

01:41:50.980 apologizing for the republican party's racist history at black churches the democrats they just had us

01:41:57.180 where they wanted us the moment we hit back hard and said in effect actually you're blaming us for the

01:42:03.760 stuff that you did and you haven't apologized for it and that's when you now have a pause in the race

01:42:10.700 debate and it's precisely the counter-strike that's produced that so i agree with you because i think

01:42:15.720 there's nothing when i say reconciliation you'll don't misconstrue martin luther king for

01:42:23.840 um a weakling uh he was a strong defender of the truth um and where he was going so i'm not by any

01:42:33.320 stretch saying we don't make these points we we must use history as our guide yeah and be able to

01:42:40.020 expose this but how do we now get this to the ears of people who are so wrapped up in the game

01:42:49.620 that it's just not going to make a difference well if you ask me what i'm trying to do with this book

01:42:54.140 i'm sort of trying to take away the fascism card in kind of the same way i tried to take away the

01:42:59.620 race card from the left i'm trying to blunt the force of it um i'm not using these the words nazi

01:43:06.140 and and fascist as a verbal javelin because first of all i'm not saying and i don't even think the left

01:43:11.860 is saying when they say trump is a fascist they don't mean that trump is hitler circa 1945 trump hasn't

01:43:17.800 started a world war he hasn't gassed six million jews they're saying trump is hitler circa 1933

01:43:23.140 he's a demagogue who just came into power promising these dreams of ultra greatness so i'm saying all

01:43:29.880 right the way to take away the the kind of smear campaign is to is to take a pause and dive into the

01:43:38.000 meaning of these terms really show that that the left is the party of fascism and i'm hoping that in

01:43:43.380 the same way it will strip the fascist card of its kind of power to shut down debate uh and not just

01:43:51.460 shut down debate the left is using the charge of fascism to justify all kinds of behavior that would

01:43:56.740 never otherwise be condoned i mean if for example we said about obama a we're not going to show up at

01:44:02.640 his inauguration b we're going to disrupt it c we're going to get him on obstruction of justice even

01:44:08.620 if there was no underlying crime people would be apoplectic they would think we they would think we

01:44:13.740 had lost our minds but the left goes of course we do all this stuff but we're doing it because

01:44:18.280 we're fighting hitler in the 30s but we're using by any means necessary do you believe that because i

01:44:25.220 think this is actually a losing strategy um because i do believe that um i know democrats who say

01:44:33.420 you know they were out marching against the guy on the first weekend we have absolutely no

01:44:39.680 credibility would you just shut up and when something is real deal with it i think both

01:44:46.140 sides excusing anything and and being offended by everything those are both losing strategies in

01:44:53.500 the end do you agree with that or not i do agree with that i i mean i do agree with that and i you

01:44:58.200 know the other problem i think is that um the intellectual quality of our public debate has

01:45:04.020 really dropped uh i mean i think there is an intellectual i mean i think back when i was 22 i

01:45:09.720 looked up to people like milton friedman solzhenitsyn friedrich hayek even william f buckley not only

01:45:16.320 their their rhetorical excellence and philosophical range but their style there was a kind of elegance to

01:45:22.700 them yeah that seems to have diminished if not disappeared from public life um and there is no

01:45:28.600 you know the other problem is you know for example ever since the election chris matthews

01:45:33.880 rachel maddow bill maher they've been bloviating about fascism almost non-stop so now i have a book

01:45:39.740 and i say to them okay guys let's have it out let's see if fascism really belongs on the right or the

01:45:44.640 left dead silence you know not a word they won't put you on they won't put me on because i think

01:45:52.300 they're scared i think they know that they don't know what they're talking about and they know that

01:45:56.820 the moment it's all footnoted i mean you have all the sources in the back and i mean you know you can

01:46:02.040 disagree with conclusions that you might make um but facts are facts facts are facts uh that's

01:46:10.220 absolutely true i mean i when you when you look at the the actual attributions by hitler i'm getting

01:46:18.320 this idea from the jacksonian democrats of the 19th century um and they're the ones who threw the

01:46:25.060 indians off their land they displaced them they took over their land they enslaved the ones that 1.00

01:46:29.900 remained i'm going to do that in poland in the slavic countries in central europe in russia i'm going

01:46:36.020 to settle it with german families i mean this is out of the mouth of hit out of the mouth of hitler

01:46:41.740 you might say and very hard to deny either he said it or he didn't but it's right there in

01:46:46.460 we were talking in the in the break about the similarities of the rise of the ku klux klan and

01:46:52.180 the brown shirts and how they rose to power at the same time the same strength really the same types

01:46:58.080 of tactics obviously in america so far thankfully we've been able to avoid the worst parts of what

01:47:04.480 happened out of those movements even though they were terrible here they never rose to those levels

01:47:08.800 it was at the constitution is it the founders that that prevented that rise of those terrible elements

01:47:15.860 in our country what was the difference well first of all you know i don't think you can say that we

01:47:21.740 were spared those horrors because if you think about it the number one the the racist the racist regime

01:47:28.700 of the nazis lasted for 12 years 1933 to 1945 the racist regime that the democrats established lasted for

01:47:36.860 over 100 years from i would say the 1820s until at least the 1950s and in both cases you had racial

01:47:44.400 terrorism the clan the brown shirts that was then replaced by systematic laws that inferiorized a

01:47:52.260 whole group and so the uh even hitler talked about he said the hitler shut down the brown shirts he

01:47:58.960 goes this is emotional uh anti-semitism he goes the nuremberg laws and the subsequent laws those are

01:48:05.440 what he called rational anti-semitism the state will treat you as the inferior creature you are

01:48:11.000 we don't need to have hooligans beat you up on the street and the democratic south did exactly the 0.94

01:48:16.620 same thing though the ruling power said we don't need the clan running around burning people's homes

01:48:21.240 we will just establish two separate societies white people on top black people at the bottom they 0.94

01:48:27.620 won't associate a whole lot with each other two separate societies inside of one dinesh d'souza the

01:48:34.280 name of the book is the big lie exposing the nazi roots of the american left the big lie by dinesh d'souza
