The Glenn Beck Program - 9⧸20⧸17 - Signs From Heaven？ (Kenny Fries & Jenn Hyman join Glenn)

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

00:00:08.940 Love. Courage. Truth.

00:00:13.760 Glenn Beck.

00:00:16.580 This was the sound in Mexico City, yesterday.

00:00:22.480 As the ground began to shake violently,

00:00:25.500 explosions and buildings falling down.

00:00:30.660 The Capitol experienced a 7.1 magnitude earthquake.

00:00:34.580 It was prolonged and it was violent.

00:00:38.420 As of this morning,

00:00:40.340 rescuers are still working to dig people out from under the rubble.

00:00:46.100 Here's what we know today.

00:00:47.720 240 people have been reported dead, but there will be many more.

00:00:52.840 The number is expected to rise.

00:00:54.340 More than 40 buildings have already collapsed, including at least two schools.

00:01:00.780 In a strange turn of events,

00:01:05.880 what made yesterday so weird and jarring

00:01:09.180 was that many Mexicans had attended memorial services earlier that morning.

00:01:15.760 They had been to church

00:01:17.400 because they were marking the 32nd anniversary of the 1985 earthquake that killed 10,000.

00:01:29.460 This earthquake also came less than two weeks after an 8.1 magnitude

00:01:33.520 that killed 91 people and destroyed thousands of homes.

00:01:38.140 Mexico City is one of the greatest cities, I believe, in the Western Hemisphere.

00:01:42.760 It is.

00:01:44.520 It's a clean New York.

00:01:47.180 It is a great cultural city.

00:01:50.400 And in the rubble, we saw something else.

00:01:54.980 We saw the strength of the human spirit.

00:01:58.060 We saw neighbor helping neighbor, a community coming together.

00:02:01.860 And in the coming days, we'll see what makes America great yet again.

00:02:08.880 We will see Americans reaching deep and helping their neighbor.

00:02:13.320 Because no matter what we say, there is never a wall around our hearts.

00:02:22.560 Yesterday, what we saw in Mexico was a nation move to action

00:02:27.860 when everybody focused on what really mattered most, each other.

00:02:33.440 For two countries that are throwing the war of words back and forth with our politicians,

00:02:42.740 it was interesting to watch yesterday and see,

00:02:47.540 in the end, we're not all that different.

00:02:50.660 It's Wednesday, September 20th.

00:03:04.260 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:06.400 There's so much going on in the world that sometimes I'm overwhelmed

00:03:10.600 and I don't even know where to begin.

00:03:13.940 I try to find the stories that will make a difference, that actually matter.

00:03:19.420 And the only thing that really matters are those stories of people.

00:03:23.280 I read a letter to the American people, and it was really a plea.

00:03:30.280 But most people didn't read it, never heard it, didn't share it.

00:03:36.140 I thought it was powerful.

00:03:38.860 A story of a guy who could be just like you.

00:03:42.920 When I stretched out my arms, I could touch the two opposite walls.

00:03:53.220 The door was blocked with black garbage bags, leaving the room in total darkness.

00:03:58.300 There was rotten, worm-infested food on the floor alongside scraps of clothing covered in feces.

00:04:05.080 For a while, it felt as though I had been buried alive.

00:04:11.940 It was a year before, while I was going to speak at a news conference,

00:04:16.020 I was going to share my political thoughts.

00:04:18.680 When I was interrupted by 10 or 15 undercover secret police vehicles,

00:04:23.900 a couple dozen armed agents came in and they tied my hands and covered my head with a black cloth.

00:04:29.320 I was then locked in a cell without light or any kind of ventilation.

00:04:36.160 I was denied any communication with the outside world,

00:04:38.760 and I could speak with my lawyers only when I was taken to court.

00:04:42.980 This went on for 10 days, and after then I was transferred to an administrative office inside the jail.

00:04:49.840 It was there for the next seven months I slept on a mat on the floor.

00:04:54.380 Three months ago, the prosecutor in my case closed the investigation.

00:05:00.460 He established that I wasn't guilty of any crimes.

00:05:03.240 I had faced a trumped-up charge of possession of explosives.

00:05:07.240 This meant that there are no active judicial proceedings against me.

00:05:11.680 I'm just simply being held hostage in violation of the Constitution.

00:05:16.820 Political imprisonment has been the punishment for daring to dream of a democratic society,

00:05:23.060 free of communism, and open to the global community.

00:05:27.960 We just want what so many other people around the world take for granted.

00:05:32.840 Free elections, good governance, free expression, judicial independence,

00:05:38.380 personal security, and a modicum of economic liberty.

00:05:42.280 But an armed minority has managed to impose a regime of fear and corruption and blood.

00:05:49.240 My case is evidence of that.

00:05:51.480 I know I'm here for a just cause.

00:05:55.980 My sacrifice, and that of others like me, will change millions of lives.

00:06:01.780 Today, 93% of citizens in my country can't afford food.

00:06:07.960 Because of food shortages that are the fault of our corrupt and brutal government,

00:06:12.420 nearly three-quarters of our citizens say they have lost an average of about 17 pounds in the last few months.

00:06:19.300 I don't want to think of a father's horror when his baby dies from a fever,

00:06:25.680 or something as simple as diarrhea that could have easily been treated if he just had access to simple medicine.

00:06:32.060 I'm in prison, so this stops happening.

00:06:39.480 That conviction gives me strength.

00:06:42.400 My generation has made freedom its goal.

00:06:48.040 I want to ask the people of the United States and the world to please stand by our side.

00:06:54.080 I have finally been moved to a cell with a bed, though one with no windows.

00:06:59.660 I can see the sun only an hour per week.

00:07:05.500 I'm 32, and I've been a democratic activist for 12 years.

00:07:09.840 I have two children, eight and five, who are my sun and moon.

00:07:13.640 I have a wife who I love and who now has to carry the burden of being married to a political prisoner.

00:07:19.420 I write to you from my cell in the dungeons of the Venezuelan secret police.

00:07:28.620 I will do everything in my power to keep resisting in prison.

00:07:32.700 I'll keep dreaming of going home to sleep in a clean bed surrounded by my family.

00:07:37.800 I'll keep dreaming of the day in which we all take to the streets to celebrate our freedom.

00:07:43.340 These are the words of Jan Goicoche.

00:07:48.680 He wrote these words from his prison cell in Caracas, Venezuela,

00:07:52.560 a vivid reminder that freedom is costly, and we are foolish when we take it for granted.

00:07:59.960 Today, as we get busy and think about other things,

00:08:03.000 I would ask that you would pray for Jan and his family.

00:08:06.320 Pray for the good people of Venezuela, because they're just ahead of us.

00:08:11.000 They need a miracle, the same miracle that in the end will save us all.

00:08:31.220 A letter comes from a real political prisoner in Venezuela.

00:08:36.480 It was published as an op-ed in the New York Times.

00:08:38.860 We're going to post it at glenbeck.com here.

00:08:40.400 We'll also tweet it from at World of Stew, if you want to read it.

00:08:44.400 Donald Trump gave a great speech yesterday at the United Nations.

00:08:49.560 Maybe the best part of that being that his commentary on Venezuela,

00:08:54.280 talking about how they, it's not about how socialism was implemented incorrectly.

00:08:59.580 It was that it was implemented faithfully.

00:09:02.460 That's the problem that's gone on there.

00:09:04.220 So we're going to have more on that coming up.

00:09:06.360 So let me take you to Colorado Springs, Colorado.

00:09:14.240 You know, as the world is suffering with earthquakes,

00:09:18.340 while parts of our own country are bracing for a,

00:09:22.480 a, the effects of yet another hurricane,

00:09:26.880 while Puerto Rico is under siege today,

00:09:30.640 Venezuela, people have political prisoners.

00:09:33.840 What is it that so many of our citizens,

00:09:36.400 I mean, we're really, we're, we are grotesque.

00:09:39.280 We're really grotesque on the things that we are complaining about

00:09:42.500 and the things that we are doing because I have a right.

00:09:45.940 Let me take you to Colorado Springs.

00:09:47.300 The Bud family, the Bud family, um, has been spending the last couple of weeks

00:09:54.880 trying to find somebody in their neighborhood, uh, that they have dubbed the mad pooper.

00:10:01.160 Uh, Kathy Budd says, um, her kids first caught sight of this woman.

00:10:07.700 She appears to be in her mid thirties, maybe twenties, thirties.

00:10:11.960 She is athletically built.

00:10:14.420 They have a picture of her from behind, um, as she was running away.

00:10:19.720 She's a jogger and, uh, she is, uh, running and jogging around the neighborhood.

00:10:24.820 And, um, the, the, the, the, the Bud children, uh, look out the front window and scream, mom.

00:10:34.760 And here was this woman mid squat, pants down, unashamed. 1.00

00:10:38.840 And, and the kids say, mom, there's a lady taking a poop in our front yard. 1.00

00:10:46.360 Come on.

00:10:47.180 No, they're not.

00:10:47.820 No, they're not.

00:10:48.800 Mom.

00:10:49.520 And mom comes says, oh my, she, she opens up the door and she says, hey, what do you do?

00:10:58.020 What are you doing?

00:10:58.920 Uh, she says, oh, sorry, pull your pants up and runs away. 1.00

00:11:08.240 Oh, how else are you going to respond to that question?

00:11:11.080 Right.

00:11:11.920 Okay.

00:11:12.720 Um, this was the first time that somebody had caught her doing it.

00:11:17.840 Uh, she has been doing, um, uh, doing this now for the last seven weeks.

00:11:24.660 They don't know if she has just moved into the neighborhood.

00:11:28.820 They don't know.

00:11:29.620 Is that a pun?

00:11:30.140 Who she, yeah.

00:11:31.400 Uh, uh, yesterday they caught her yesterday again. 0.88

00:11:36.040 Uh, she changed up her routine a little bit because she knew she was being watched.

00:11:41.860 Um, there, there are public restrooms, you know, it's Colorado Springs. 1.00

00:11:46.360 They're, they're public restrooms right there. 1.00

00:11:48.680 CVS has caught her, uh, out in their front, you know, the, the, the median there just taking

00:11:54.180 a crap in the middle.

00:11:56.500 It's something she enjoys.

00:11:58.180 Uh, apparently you don't think it's a, you know, like a lot of people enjoy different

00:12:01.640 things, you know, different strokes for different folks.

00:12:04.320 No, no.

00:12:05.520 So the, the bud family has put a, uh, a sign up in the yard that says, please, I'm begging 1.00

00:12:12.940 you, please stop.

00:12:16.060 Please stop.

00:12:16.920 What?

00:12:17.980 Pooping in our front yard like a dog.

00:12:21.640 I think the sign needs to be more specific.

00:12:23.520 Yeah.

00:12:23.840 It needs to say, please stop pooping all humans.

00:12:27.820 So do you really, no human.

00:12:30.140 Do you really, do you really need to say that?

00:12:33.500 This is the problem.

00:12:35.020 This is the problem.

00:12:37.160 The, in, in Venezuela, I am not kidding you. 0.56

00:12:39.780 They are, they are starving and people are going out.

00:12:44.340 Families are going out at night and they are hunting dogs and cats.

00:12:48.440 So they have something to eat.

00:12:51.240 And what are we doing?

00:12:53.920 We're having to chase people from crapping in our front lawn.

00:13:00.260 It's, I mean, I used to go for a walk with a, we used to walk our dogs in this neighborhood.

00:13:06.900 And it's a nice little suburban neighborhood where we used to live.

00:13:09.320 And this one house, because a lot of people would walk their dogs past this house.

00:13:13.620 And obviously that would become a problem.

00:13:15.000 I guess dogs, not humans, but dogs would poop on this particular lawn.

00:13:18.420 So they decided to put up a sign and the sign said, uh, it was a, you know, a circle with

00:13:25.420 the, with the cross through it, the slash through it.

00:13:27.760 And it just, and it had a picture of a dog taking a poop.

00:13:31.540 Yes.

00:13:32.240 So now instead of occasionally having a piece of poop in their front yard, they have a picture

00:13:37.380 of a dog pooping in their front yard all the time.

00:13:41.080 This does not seem like you've solved the issue.

00:13:43.780 Yeah.

00:13:43.980 Well, you know, I mean, I'm expecting a little dog poop and I'm expecting to catch a dog once

00:13:49.040 in a while pooping in my front yard, which I don't want.

00:13:51.500 And if you would do, if you're doing that and you're walking your dog, please pick up

00:13:55.340 the poop.

00:13:56.000 Here was a quote from, I think it was a guy at CVS.

00:14:00.260 He said, I saw her now, now listen, listen to this.

00:14:05.940 I saw her.

00:14:07.320 And honestly, I thought she was going to pick it up after and put it in a bag, but she 0.99

00:14:16.240 didn't.

00:14:19.180 That's the problem here.

00:14:22.280 That's where you're starting with.

00:14:24.580 And she didn't pick it up.

00:14:26.020 No, she pulled her pants down and took a crap in the middle of the street, man. 1.00

00:14:31.000 You know, I know there's there, there are people and we have to get into this later today.

00:14:44.060 There are people that believe that September 23rd, maybe the day of the rapture.

00:14:48.100 I'd like to remind you that no man knows, but, and I'm, I'm, I'm not all down with the

00:14:54.020 rapture thing.

00:14:55.560 Unfortunately, gosh, I hope, I hope I'm not wrong on that.

00:14:59.520 And then I'm left here and I'm like, oh crap.

00:15:02.820 Anyway, the September 23rd, people are saying, this is it.

00:15:08.420 This is, this is the signs in the heavens and everything.

00:15:11.300 This is the end.

00:15:12.900 I don't think it is, but I will tell you this, you know, I'm going to look for the sign of

00:15:20.580 people pooping in your front yard as, you know, maybe men's hearts failed them.

00:15:25.660 Maybe, you know, women's sphincter muscles fail them and they just have to do that. 1.00

00:15:31.080 I'm not sure, but I will tell you this with the earthquake and the hurricanes, if you haven't

00:15:37.400 gotten the idea that your life could change in a heartbeat and it's wise to be prepared

00:15:42.920 so you can just stop worrying about things.

00:15:47.040 I don't know what it's going to take to get this message.

00:15:49.660 You can't prepare for everything, but there are a few things that you can do when it comes

00:15:54.160 to a crisis.

00:15:55.640 There's one thing that cuts across all of it.

00:15:58.000 And that is you're going to need to have food, whether it's for you or somebody else, maybe

00:16:02.120 somebody in your neighborhood, somebody in your town, somebody in your state.

00:16:05.340 Actually having an emergency food supply is a lifesaver.

00:16:10.080 Ask our friends in Houston and in Florida, ask, ask people in Mexico.

00:16:16.940 Boy, you know, there's no food on the shelves in Mexico for probably a couple of days, at

00:16:24.180 least my Patriot supply has food storage for you.

00:16:28.220 Get their 70 serving survival food kit for only $67 healthy food that lasts up to 25 years.

00:16:34.880 For less than a dollar per serving, you'll get breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

00:16:39.360 You were in Puerto Rico today.

00:16:42.060 I can guarantee you, you're not running to the store.

00:16:44.600 There's nothing on the shelves today.

00:16:47.060 Call 800-977-0542 or order online at preparewithglenn.com.

00:16:53.220 A prepared America is a strong America.

00:16:55.660 And that's my Patriot Supplies mission.

00:17:04.880 Glenn Beck.

00:17:10.140 Glenn Beck.

00:17:15.600 Category 4.

00:17:19.080 Maria is hitting Puerto Rico.

00:17:21.780 This is the sound of it right now.

00:17:23.320 Donald Trump has just declared Puerto Rico a disaster area, and they are now saying that

00:17:33.220 Puerto Rico may be uninhabitable for weeks, if not months, after this.

00:17:39.900 I mean, holy cow.

00:17:43.620 I mean, I can see why people are saying September 23rd is, you know, maybe.

00:17:47.180 I mean, as I pointed out yesterday, you know, the book of Revelation is not going to be as scary as if this is, if this is the, you know, these are the signs.

00:18:00.440 I mean, yeah, it's bad, but it's not what I thought the book of Revelations bad would be, right?

00:18:06.500 So, I mean, it's kind of like if people have disappeared on, you know, Saturday on the 23rd in the rapture, you'd be like, okay, well, I mean, maybe the rest of it's not going to be as bad.

00:18:20.740 Maybe it's just been hyped.

00:18:21.700 Maybe it's like one of those movies that everybody said, oh, no, it's the greatest.

00:18:24.520 And you went there and you're like, you wrecked it because it was good, but you built it up to too far.

00:18:30.040 I believe yesterday on the show, though, you said, well, you know, the only thing we're missing is earthquakes.

00:18:34.960 And then, so I think you should shut up is what I think.

00:18:39.420 You know what we're missing?

00:18:40.660 Chocolate cake.

00:18:42.360 Ooh, there we go.

00:18:43.120 Let's see if that shows up.

00:18:44.320 Maybe it'll just appear.

00:18:45.900 The Mexican earthquake is just, have you ever been in Mexico City?

00:18:50.520 I have not.

00:18:51.180 I was just there four or five weeks ago.

00:18:53.520 It is truly one of the greatest cities, I think, in the world.

00:18:57.620 It is a beautiful city, huge.

00:19:00.860 I don't even know how many millions of people, 25 million people.

00:19:05.360 It's up in the mountains.

00:19:06.660 It's just not what you think of.

00:19:08.000 When you think of Mexico, you're just like, I don't know, it's the beach or whatever.

00:19:11.520 It's up in the mountains.

00:19:12.780 It's cool.

00:19:13.580 It's beautiful and clean, uber, uber clean.

00:19:20.820 The parks and the streets and everything are just so clean.

00:19:24.180 That is surprising to hear.

00:19:26.140 That was not my impression.

00:19:27.160 8.85 million in the actual city, in the greater area, 21.3 million.

00:19:34.000 I mean, and they're talking about-

00:19:35.100 It's a giant city.

00:19:35.560 They're like, oh, well, there's a couple hundred people are dead and we expect that number to rise.

00:19:40.800 Yeah, it's going to rise a lot.

00:19:42.200 Do you remember, I don't know if you're old enough to remember, 1985.

00:19:45.060 Do you remember?

00:19:45.560 Because the anniversary of that Mexico City earthquake that killed 10,000 people.

00:19:51.720 The anniversary was yesterday.

00:19:55.100 And this is the second earthquake.

00:19:58.680 What was it?

00:20:00.260 500 miles away?

00:20:01.620 Yeah, there's an 8.1.

00:20:03.080 Yeah.

00:20:03.400 Right?

00:20:03.620 And then this was a 7.1?

00:20:05.080 Yes.

00:20:05.440 So, really devastating.

00:20:07.720 And, you know, like, no cities can handle stuff like this.

00:20:11.880 You know, the further you get into the poorer areas, the worse it gets.

00:20:15.760 And we're going to see that with the hurricane now, too.

00:20:22.280 Glenn Beck.

00:20:23.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:32.260 With everything going on in the world, there are a few things that will actually change your life that we should pay attention to.

00:20:38.600 And one of them is the Graham-Cassidy bill.

00:20:41.080 This is the Republicans, what some are saying, the last shot of getting anything done on a repeal and replace Obamacare.

00:20:48.900 It is starting to shape up, and it looks like it has a chance of passage.

00:20:56.000 First, let's explain what it is.

00:20:58.200 So, let me give you a couple headlines.

00:21:00.060 Reason.com, libertarian angle.

00:21:02.540 Obamacare repeal is dead.

00:21:03.980 Here come the bailouts.

00:21:06.040 Now, Vox from the left says, I've covered the GOP repeal plan since day one.

00:21:10.900 Graham-Cassidy is the most radical.

00:21:13.460 Don't you push me into Lindsey Graham's arms.

00:21:15.420 Don't do it.

00:21:16.740 So, what does this thing actually do?

00:21:18.400 It's basically, if you want a real quick summary, it's basically a federalist version of Obamacare.

00:21:23.680 It is not a repeal of Obamacare.

00:21:25.480 It is a federalist version of Obamacare.

00:21:27.700 Which means a state version of Obamacare, which is exactly what we were arguing for.

00:21:34.940 If Massachusetts wants to do Obamacare, they could do it.

00:21:39.480 If Texas says, no, there's a better way, let Texas do it. 1.00

00:21:44.300 So, that would have been okay back then, but that's not what this is now.

00:21:48.380 No, because all the money is still coming in.

00:21:51.380 So, all the money from Obamacare, largely, still goes to the federal government.

00:21:56.180 And then it is distributed through block grants to the states to do what they want with.

00:22:00.320 So, you would have a situation where your conservative state would probably do a much better job with this, if you're a conservative, where a liberal state can do all the liberal things that they want.

00:22:08.200 And what they're doing is they're taking the states, all the money that's going to the states now, and dividing it up, what I would argue, is more equitably.

00:22:16.480 Like, right now, if you have $100 in Obamacare money, that's split up between California and Texas.

00:22:21.240 Right now, it's, let's say, $75 go to California, $25 go to Texas.

00:22:26.040 What they're going to do is split that up and make it 50-50. 0.54

00:22:29.000 It's a really generic way of explaining what it is.

00:22:31.540 So far, for a really bad idea, I'm okay.

00:22:35.960 Yeah, it's, again, I think this is another situation where it's better than Obamacare.

00:22:39.820 Yes.

00:22:40.040 But it's still Obamacare.

00:22:41.020 Yeah, it's still bad.

00:22:41.360 You will be able to get rid of the individual mandate.

00:22:45.460 However, states could pass that on their own.

00:22:47.360 I don't have a problem.

00:22:48.340 If a state wants to do it, the state can do whatever it wants.

00:22:50.600 I personally think it's unconstitutional, as I know you do, at least from the federal side.

00:22:54.680 But, right, you're right.

00:22:55.520 It's much better the smaller government you get to.

00:22:58.440 Yes.

00:22:58.540 Now, the reason why this is in such a rush is because the Republicans have 10 days to do this.

00:23:04.160 The reconciliation process, which basically means you only have to get 51 votes instead of 60,

00:23:09.300 that expires on September 30th by rule because you can only do it once per fiscal year.

00:23:14.480 So they have to get it done by September 30th, which means that the House won't be able to change it.

00:23:19.540 There will be no negotiation between them.

00:23:21.460 Oh, that's a surprise.

00:23:22.260 Yeah.

00:23:23.200 So it's kind of convenient.

00:23:24.600 Yeah.

00:23:24.880 Well, yeah.

00:23:25.560 So if this happens, they were going to use reconciliation in 2018 for the tax bill.

00:23:32.120 That's why they need to get this done in the next 10 days.

00:23:34.380 And that's why it's such a panic.

00:23:36.100 So where does the vote look?

00:23:39.120 41 pretty much on board for sure.

00:23:41.700 All 41 senators have voted for all the Republican Obamacare repeals.

00:23:46.260 So you're at 41.

00:23:47.720 There are Heller and Graham.

00:23:49.700 Graham is one of the co-sponsors.

00:23:51.020 Heller has said he's on board on this as well.

00:23:52.860 That gets you to 41.

00:23:53.760 There are five that are likely to vote yes.

00:23:56.480 Lamar Alexander, Shelley Moore Capito, Bob Corker, Tom Cotton, and Rob Portman, which all have very similar names.

00:24:04.820 That puts you at 46 senators.

00:24:07.520 You probably are definitely not going to get Susan Collins.

00:24:10.980 Okay.

00:24:11.800 You're probably definitely not going to get Lisa Murkowski, though that's not determined yet.

00:24:15.700 You need to get all four of these in this scenario, which would be Mike Lee, who has not said anything about it yet.

00:24:25.180 Jerry Moran, who is probably a yes, although he's complained about the Medicaid cuts, which aren't really cuts, but it's a whole other story.

00:24:33.280 John McCain, who has voted against these things.

00:24:35.700 However, his buddy, Lindsey Graham, is the guy behind this one.

00:24:40.020 So I am so far counting him.

00:24:42.820 Lindsey Stinking Graham is the author of this.

00:24:46.320 And then Rand Paul, who has said flat out he's a no on it.

00:24:50.200 But if he's the determining vote between this thing passing and not, will he hang with that?

00:24:55.340 My guess is probably he will.

00:24:56.840 I think there's a small chance of this passing.

00:24:58.980 There's a better chance of this passing than what we remember them doing with skinny repeal.

00:25:03.180 Remember that whole thing?

00:25:03.880 Because that would have had they've had to negotiate between the House and the Senate and it never would have gone anywhere.

00:25:08.760 There's a chance here.

00:25:10.000 What's the worst thing in it?

00:25:11.880 Well, there's there's a lot of bad things in it.

00:25:13.600 First of all, all the Obamacare money stays.

00:25:16.720 Obamacare in California could actually go further to the left.

00:25:19.840 If you're someone who lives in a liberal state, you could actually get hit to the left and go further left of Obamacare.

00:25:26.080 There are people who are arguing that this actually paves the way for single payer.

00:25:31.700 Because what can happen here, some say it's a Trojan horse, but it's right. 1.00

00:25:35.320 It's right there.

00:25:36.420 So a state like California could take this money and institute single payer. 0.93

00:25:40.260 They'd have to obviously add some more tax dollars on their side to pay for it. 0.86

00:25:43.540 But they could get the federal government to pay for, let's say, three quarters of single payer.

00:25:47.240 So they pay they make single payer in California and they just they just go for it and go all out.

00:25:51.980 I have to tell you, if 10 states do that, you've paved the way.

00:25:54.860 I have to tell you, as long as this isn't the world we live in.

00:25:57.920 I don't care if if California goes completely flat broke, as long as we make it very clear, we're not bailing your ass out.

00:26:07.500 Right.

00:26:07.800 And, you know, you know, that's not the truth.

00:26:09.980 But that would be that would be fine.

00:26:11.800 Look, if you want to try something, try it.

00:26:15.400 If you can make it work.

00:26:16.740 If if we could find a single payer system that actually worked, which I don't think is is possible.

00:26:26.120 No.

00:26:26.660 But if it would actually work, I'd be for it.

00:26:29.540 It doesn't work.

00:26:31.480 Now, if you can do an experiment in your state and you're not going to drag me down with you, go for it.

00:26:38.220 But I'm not in on your experiment.

00:26:40.080 It doesn't work.

00:26:41.220 Yeah, of course, that's how it winds up going every time you wind up bailing them out anyway.

00:26:45.780 And that's the risk here.

00:26:46.720 We're going to see that with pensions, which is another thing we should get to at some point.

00:26:49.740 But yes, this is one more thing on this.

00:26:52.600 The DACA deal with Chuck Schumer.

00:26:55.020 Remember this with they talked about this and, you know, they've denied, well, there's not really a deal.

00:26:58.840 But that whole deal, one of the big arguments for it from Donald Trump's side was to say that you're going to get help now from Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

00:27:08.180 When it comes to legislation like tax reform or Obamacare.

00:27:12.100 Yeah, right.

00:27:12.620 Maybe they'll work with you a little bit.

00:27:14.360 Listen to this quote from Chuck Schumer when Graham Cassidy comes out, a proposal that the president strongly supports.

00:27:20.480 After a few weeks of lying dormant, Trumpcare is back and it's meaner than ever.

00:27:26.380 While its latest version of Trumpcare may live under a new name, no matter how many ways Republicans try to dress it up, this bill is even more dangerous than his predecessors.

00:27:34.560 Even after dealing with this guy, he not only came out strongly against the proposal, which you can understand, he shouldn't change his principles, right?

00:27:44.120 He personalized it to Trump.

00:27:46.500 He took one of Trump's old quotes, calling it mean, to vilify him even further and called it even more dangerous than all of the predecessors.

00:27:57.540 Never deal with these people.

00:27:59.820 They never, ever, ever will honor what they've said.

00:28:04.780 17-year-old kid and his girlfriend of eight months have made the news for something that I think that all of us have gone through.

00:28:29.960 And I'm puzzled by this story.

00:28:35.120 So Destiny and her boyfriend, Kitacone, live here in Dallas.

00:28:45.380 And they were friends and then they started dating.

00:28:51.320 And she had texted him saying that she was hungry.

00:28:56.080 And he said, I'll pick you up later and we'll grab a bite together.

00:28:59.820 So they, he picks her up and right after school.

00:29:04.460 And he says, you hungry?

00:29:08.760 And she said, oh, I just, I just, I'd kill for a burger.

00:29:11.640 Now, he had this, this sinking feeling that I think all of us have had.

00:29:18.340 Any guy has had this.

00:29:21.200 Where you only have a certain amount of cash.

00:29:26.160 And you don't want to, you don't want to look like you're, you know, you have no money, but you have no money.

00:29:33.520 And so he says, he knows that she likes this burger at Chili's.

00:29:38.860 And so they go to Chili's.

00:29:40.560 They sit down and the waiter takes the order.

00:29:44.880 She orders this burger.

00:29:46.220 And he says, no, I've, I've, I've already eaten.

00:29:48.560 I'm good.

00:29:49.700 And she's like, no, come on.

00:29:51.080 I can't eat by myself.

00:29:51.980 He's like, no, no, no, I'm good.

00:29:54.060 You eat, you're hungry.

00:29:55.560 So she eats, she offers him a bite all the way through.

00:29:59.180 Please have some, please just share.

00:30:00.660 He's like, no, I'm stuffed.

00:30:01.920 Well, the truth is he wasn't stuffed.

00:30:04.540 He just didn't have enough money for him to eat.

00:30:08.440 And he wanted her to eat.

00:30:11.220 And he would eat, you know, at home with his box of macaroni and cheese or whatever he chose, because that's what I used to choose because they were 23 cents a box.

00:30:20.760 This is something that we have, I think every guy has done.

00:30:25.200 Did you do that with Lisa?

00:30:27.000 Oh, yes, of course.

00:30:28.160 And if you're going to spend 23 cents, it should be unpowdered cheese.

00:30:31.920 That's actually a principle I live by.

00:30:34.640 I, you know, if you spend 23 dollars, it might as well be on powdered cheese.

00:30:38.560 But anyway, so, so, so here's, here's why this is in the news.

00:30:44.600 They've been dating now for eight months and I don't know.

00:30:48.480 He tweets her, Facebooks her and says, you know, that first date, I was actually starving.

00:30:54.460 And she's like, why didn't you tell me?

00:30:57.180 We could have, I mean, we, we could have just gone to the store and just grabbed something cheap and I would have made sandwiches.

00:31:04.080 And he said, no, I wanted you to, I wanted you to eat.

00:31:09.120 I wanted you to have something good.

00:31:10.100 Now, this is something that I think every guy has done on a date.

00:31:14.320 Every, every parent has even done this with your children.

00:31:18.060 Your children are out and you're doing something or you're, you are making food at home and you're giving them the best.

00:31:25.080 And you're, and you're like, nope, I'm not hungry.

00:31:27.460 I don't need it.

00:31:28.100 You need it.

00:31:28.980 We don't look like we skip meals, but we do.

00:31:31.300 Right.

00:31:31.820 Yes.

00:31:32.260 This is a story today on BuzzFeed.

00:31:37.920 And my question is, has chivalry died to the point to where this is something that people are reading going, wow, look at that guy.

00:31:48.220 It's so notable.

00:31:50.040 Right.

00:31:50.780 That now BuzzFeed's actually writing national news stories about it.

00:31:53.940 Is that possible?

00:31:55.320 Is it possible that we live in such a place now that the majority of the people, at least writing, have never been in that position themselves?

00:32:09.140 I'm trying to figure why this is a story.

00:32:12.740 Because this is the way America has always been.

00:32:15.860 This is the way men have always been. 0.99

00:32:18.360 This is the way, this is what you're supposed to do.

00:32:21.260 This is not a news story.

00:32:25.320 I don't know if you have checked to find your name at Equifax to see that that breach that they had at Equifax.

00:32:39.540 If that has affected you, 143 million Americans are affected by it.

00:32:45.720 The organization that determined credit card numbers and to see if your credit was good, if they were watching over your credit.

00:32:58.000 They had a hack.

00:33:02.560 143 million Americans, 200,000 consumers with their personal data, the social security number, and their credit card number was accessed.

00:33:13.340 So once it's out, first of all, if all of that information was stolen for 143 million Americans, that's half of us, that information was stolen, it's out, and there's no putting that genie back in the bottle.

00:33:29.980 Now, if you haven't been hacked yet, if your identity hasn't been taken yet, it will.

00:33:35.880 It's only a matter of time.

00:33:37.720 Somebody's identity is stolen every two seconds.

00:33:40.420 And here's the difference.

00:33:42.340 LifeLock will go through and look at a wide range of identity threats.

00:33:47.040 They don't just look at your credit score like Equifax.

00:33:50.360 They actually look at everything.

00:33:52.680 And if there is a problem, there's somebody here in the U.S., a U.S.-based identity restoration specialist that's going to work to fix it.

00:33:59.080 Now, as we can see, nobody can prevent all identity theft, monitor all transactions at all businesses.

00:34:04.540 It's not possible.

00:34:06.280 But LifeLock can see more of the threats than anyone else.

00:34:10.580 They can see more of the threats to your identity.

00:34:14.000 And they alert you, and they step in to help fix it right away.

00:34:29.080 Glenn Beck.

00:34:38.540 Glenn Beck.

00:34:45.760 I don't know if you even remember in September, September 26, 1983.

00:34:54.360 This is really at the height of the Cold War with the Soviets and the United States.

00:35:00.140 And we were, you know, calling Moscow the evil empire.

00:35:04.820 And I remember working in Washington, D.C. and thinking after they shut down the Soviet, the Soviets shut down the Korean airliner.

00:35:12.760 I am in the I'm in the vaporization zone.

00:35:15.040 I mean, we're going to be hit by a nuke.

00:35:17.420 On September 26, 1983, Stanislav Petrov was sitting in his office and he received a message that told him that five nuclear missiles had been launched from the United States and were on their way.

00:35:34.660 And they had about 20 minutes to launch a counterattack.

00:35:40.120 Everything, everything on his screen said launch now.

00:35:44.900 All he had to do was pick up the phone and say launch.

00:35:52.680 The sirens went off.

00:35:54.540 He said, I sat there for a few minutes staring at this big back, backlit red screen with the words launch on it.

00:36:03.740 He said everything had everything I had showed me the United States was attacking us.

00:36:09.540 If I would have picked up the phone, we would have launched.

00:36:17.860 He said we had been trained to obey, not to think.

00:36:23.860 He said, but there was no rule saying how long we were allowed to think before we reported the strike.

00:36:31.240 He said, I knew that every second that was passing was taking up valuable time.

00:36:41.000 He said, but I couldn't move.

00:36:42.720 He said, I felt like I was sitting on a hot frying pan and I just couldn't move.

00:36:50.540 Luckily, luckily, it didn't feel right to him to launch and he didn't.

00:36:58.060 But the world is probably vastly different because he waited.

00:37:04.760 It was a bug in the system and he thought, this is a new system.

00:37:08.520 I bet this is there's something wrong here.

00:37:11.000 And he didn't give the order to launch and save the world.

00:37:15.740 The reason why I bring this story up is because he just passed away at 77.

00:37:28.060 Glenn Beck.

00:37:45.520 Love.

00:37:47.360 Courage.

00:37:49.180 Truth.

00:37:50.440 Glenn Beck.

00:37:51.180 So something happened that was, I thought, terrifying during President Trump's speech at the U.N. yesterday.

00:37:56.480 It wasn't anything he said.

00:37:58.680 Rather, it was the reaction to what he said.

00:38:02.520 The problem in Venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented,

00:38:08.880 but that socialism has been faithfully implemented.

00:38:15.200 So he waited for a second, but they just stared at him.

00:38:20.420 It was like he was speaking an alien language.

00:38:24.880 Yesterday, he was waiting for the assembly to stand up or to applaud at that line,

00:38:30.760 but it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop.

00:38:33.580 And this is what's scary.

00:38:35.240 75% of the U.N. probably believes wholeheartedly that socialism is the answer.

00:38:43.820 But when a state makes the decision in everything in your life, it's never good.

00:38:50.420 Venezuela was supposed to be the crown jewel.

00:38:54.700 It's the progressive paradise.

00:38:56.360 Everyone in Hollywood praised Venezuela.

00:38:59.020 Sean Penn, Oliver Stone, Naomi Campbell, Michael Moore, Bernie Sanders, all of them.

00:39:03.900 In fact, on Bernie Sanders' own website, he claims that if the American dream would be more apt to be realized in Venezuela

00:39:12.580 than in the United States.

00:39:15.020 So why is it everybody loves Venezuela?

00:39:19.920 I think probably because it was a country that had so much promise.

00:39:26.520 And then when they went and started to really fully embrace socialism entirely, none of us ever lived there.

00:39:35.020 What does the utopia actually look like?

00:39:39.840 Inflation nears now 800%.

00:39:43.760 Basic goods like toilet paper are severely rationed.

00:39:48.520 The nation with the largest oil reserves in the world has to import oil and has oil and gasoline shortages.

00:39:57.520 What's really so heartbreaking, the people are struggling for food every single day.

00:40:07.380 At night, many citizens go on the prowl to hunt for rats, cats, or dogs.

00:40:14.360 This is what progressives across the world call a paradise.

00:40:18.240 Misery is the politics.

00:40:20.820 Ask Bernie Sanders.

00:40:24.200 The lack of food is, believe it or not, a sign of success.

00:40:29.980 You know, it's funny.

00:40:30.720 Sometimes American journalists talk about how bad a country is because people are lining up for food.

00:40:35.560 That's a good thing.

00:40:37.260 In other countries, people don't line up for food.

00:40:39.300 The rich get the food and the poor starve to death.

00:40:43.400 Ask a Venezuelan what it's like to deal with food rationing.

00:40:46.500 What is it like to stand in line for food, to get turned away, and then have to go dig through the trash in a last-ditch effort to feed your family?

00:40:54.700 Ask them what it's like to watch their leaders rip up the Constitution and seize even more power and more control.

00:41:00.940 Power and control.

00:41:02.020 Power and control.

00:41:03.820 In the end, I don't care if it's the Nazis or the communists. 0.52

00:41:08.280 I don't care if it's the left or the right.

00:41:11.080 There is another way.

00:41:12.600 Individual freedom.

00:41:18.140 Power and control.

00:41:19.560 In the end, that is what the progressive, socialist, left and right agenda is always all about.

00:41:35.300 It's Wednesday, September 20th.

00:41:37.860 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:39.740 We're changing as a people, and I just want to drop a pin in the map.

00:41:45.040 And I just want to say we're going over a cliff.

00:41:47.960 And as I learned from one of the righteous among the nations in Poland a few years ago, and I've shared many times, the righteous didn't suddenly become righteous.

00:41:57.780 They just refused to go over the cliff with everyone else.

00:42:00.540 Don't go over the cliff.

00:42:03.220 There's a new survey out, and we'll talk about it later, about how so many college students are now saying freedom of speech is not that important.

00:42:16.060 It is.

00:42:18.160 Societies can go crazy quickly.

00:42:20.860 In 1923, there was a survey of parents of disabled children.

00:42:27.240 Would you agree definitely to a painless shortcut of your child's life after it's determined by experts that it is incurably stupid?

00:42:37.540 The results of this survey, this study, were published in 1925.

00:42:46.360 73% of those adults who had children said they were willing to have their children killed if they weren't told about it.

00:42:59.720 Well, what do you think happened in Germany after these kinds of polls started to come out?

00:43:09.420 And we're headed down the same road.

00:43:12.180 The stat comes from an amazing op-ed in the New York Times called The Nazis' First Victims Were Disabled.

00:43:17.900 It comes from Kenny Fries.

00:43:18.920 He's the author of not only that op-ed, but also the book In the Province of the Gods.

00:43:23.720 And he joins us live from Germany.

00:43:25.240 So, Kenny, first of all, you were born without bones in your legs?

00:43:32.760 Yep.

00:43:33.200 I was born in 1960, missing fibula in my legs, and spent the first four weeks of my life in an incubator.

00:43:42.520 People didn't know whether I would be able to walk.

00:43:45.840 Some thought I shouldn't be, you know, allowed to live, but luckily my parents weren't amongst them.

00:43:52.440 So, yeah, and then lived a pretty, you know, normal life.

00:43:56.960 I was one of the first kids to be schooled in the mainstream school in Brooklyn, New York in the 1960s.

00:44:04.600 And, you know, went to college, and after college I started to write about my disability experience,

00:44:09.880 which then, you know, much later in 2002 brought me to Japan.

00:44:15.020 I wanted to look at what another country, a culture very different from our own, looked at how they looked at disability.

00:44:22.700 So I went to Japan, and the result was my new book, In the Province of the Gods.

00:44:28.700 And I learned some interesting things there, Glenn.

00:44:31.000 I mean, I was very surprised when I went to Japan that I was treated more as a foreigner, which I was, than I was as a disabled person.

00:44:38.800 Whereas in my own country, in the United States, I was always looked at as different because I was disabled.

00:44:45.020 So I kind of felt like a foreigner in my own country.

00:44:48.400 And I also found out a lot about how central, you know, central disability was to Japanese culture, you know, historically,

00:44:58.500 at the same time where it was looked at as something shameful.

00:45:01.260 And you talk about, you know, what happened in Germany.

00:45:04.200 There was a story that happened in Yokohama, Japan, in the early 1970s, where a mother had a child with cerebral palsy,

00:45:15.240 and she had numerous children.

00:45:17.620 And in true Japanese fashion, you know, the husband was away a lot, and she was very overburdened by having the child,

00:45:24.440 and she killed the child.

00:45:25.720 And though she was, you know, charged with murder and found guilty, the outcry was so great that people felt so sorry for her

00:45:37.700 that she really got off without any punishment for killing her own child.

00:45:46.820 Kenny, there was a story that came out in a couple of weeks ago, I think, about Reykjavik,

00:45:54.340 how Reykjavik is becoming a country that will, and it was celebrated, this first city or country now that will be Down syndrome free,

00:46:06.520 because they're doing early testing, and most people are aborting these children before they're born.

00:46:13.880 So Reykjavik now is Down syndrome free birth, and I found that article really disturbing.

00:46:22.360 As a dad of a child of special needs, my daughter has cerebral palsy, I wouldn't wish this for my child.

00:46:31.100 It's difficult.

00:46:32.620 However, her life has real meaning and real purpose, and I don't understand, we're crossing some spooky lines.

00:46:46.440 Yep, we are, and we can't forget that, you know, and as I pointed out in my New York Times article,

00:46:53.440 that the history in our own country, in the United States, is not free of these things.

00:46:59.040 Back in 1927, in the Buck v. Bell decision, you know, Oliver Wendell Holmes said three generations of imbeciles was enough,

00:47:07.140 and it was constitutional to sterilize, you know, disabled people. 0.83

00:47:13.480 So that, you know, one thing, in our own culture, we used to have what they call the ugly laws,

00:47:18.700 where you were prohibited from being in public if you were disabled, if you looked different, if you looked, you know, deformed.

00:47:26.020 And the last of those laws wasn't rescinded until 1974, Glenn.

00:47:31.380 So, you know, it's been...

00:47:32.720 Was that one, because I had never heard, I've never heard of the ugly law.

00:47:35.920 I mean, I know about the Human Betterment Society, and I know all about the nastiness of what we've done with eugenics. 1.00

00:47:43.980 I think we were, in some ways, we taught the Germans an awful lot.

00:47:48.100 But when it comes to, when it comes to the ugly laws, was that one of those laws that just happened to still be on the books?

00:47:55.880 Like, you know, you can't tie your horse up at the supermarket, and it just wasn't removed?

00:48:00.820 No, they were passed.

00:48:01.160 They started being passed in the 1860s, 1870s, in various cities across the country.

00:48:08.060 Some states tried to pass them, and they weren't as successful as cities.

00:48:12.420 So there were basically local ordinances that just basically said you can't...

00:48:17.220 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:18.320 There's also a case in Germany that happened a couple of decades ago called the Frankfurt Judgment,

00:48:25.640 where people went on a holiday, you know, they booked a holiday,

00:48:30.380 and they encountered disabled people on their holiday,

00:48:33.800 and they asked to be reimbursed by their travel agent,

00:48:41.240 you know, because they happened upon these disabled people.

00:48:45.220 And they won in court.

00:48:48.500 Wow.

00:48:49.200 So these feelings about disability are prevalent in a lot of cultures.

00:48:54.020 I would say probably all cultures.

00:48:55.860 They just manifest themselves differently.

00:48:57.760 So can we have an adult conversation here, Kenny?

00:49:00.160 And this is not popular to do, and it will be taken, you know, and chopped up.

00:49:06.300 But we have to have real conversations because we're dealing with really scary stuff.

00:49:14.400 As we're looking at health care, the argument is about we just can't let people die, etc., etc.

00:49:25.060 But when a state is in control, there's too many examples of it just comes down to the money.

00:49:37.400 And if you can't opt out of that, you know, and the state says,

00:49:42.720 hey, you're not producing enough potatoes.

00:49:44.240 I got to give this money to somebody else who has a better quality of life

00:49:47.600 and are going to actually put into the system.

00:49:49.760 And it becomes this horror show versus, well, these people can't afford any health care,

00:49:57.360 and so they're just going to die, which is also awful.

00:50:01.400 I mean, how do you balance those two?

00:50:04.200 In my mind, I would rather have the chance to opt out or opt in

00:50:09.960 than being stuck in a system where whatever they call and say,

00:50:14.300 I'm sorry, you're done.

00:50:15.760 You're done.

00:50:16.460 Well, I mean, you know, to go back to Japan, I mean, you know, in Japan,

00:50:25.020 I don't know if you know the movie Ballad of Narayama,

00:50:28.040 where they basically take these small villages in Japan a while back.

00:50:33.320 They would take their elderly when they were old to just go to the mountain

00:50:37.080 and to basically die alone in the mountain,

00:50:40.300 which I don't think is a good thing to do either.

00:50:43.740 No, it's like Logan's run, low tech.

00:50:48.660 Yeah, but the problem, Glenn, is that you, in a society that disvalues disability,

00:50:55.120 that misunderstands disability, that fears disability,

00:50:58.440 you can't make a true voluntary choice.

00:51:03.180 If, you know, people say that if somebody, you know,

00:51:06.540 when I get dementia, if I get Alzheimer's, I don't want to live like that.

00:51:10.360 It's not a dignified life.

00:51:13.360 But what are they reacting to?

00:51:15.100 They're reacting to a fear about the body changing.

00:51:19.160 And if the disability experience teaches anything, 0.96

00:51:21.320 it is about the fact that that's what our life is.

00:51:24.560 Our life is change.

00:51:26.880 You know, I talk about this in The Province of the Gods

00:51:29.740 because Japan deals with the idea of change,

00:51:32.400 which ultimate change is mortality,

00:51:34.040 that we're all, you know, not going to be here after a while.

00:51:36.680 So it's this fear that I think gets in the way of making a decision

00:51:42.960 of what one would want to do if one was, you know,

00:51:45.880 severely disabled, you know, Alzheimer's, whatever it is.

00:51:50.040 And I don't think you can make a rational choice

00:51:53.580 in a society that disvalues disability and disabled lives.

00:51:58.600 So, Kenny...

00:51:59.260 What is dignity?

00:52:00.260 The only dignity you could have is to die?

00:52:02.860 I mean, is that dignified?

00:52:04.300 I don't think that's dignified.

00:52:05.860 What you're saying, Kenny, is going counterculture.

00:52:11.220 I mean, I agree with you,

00:52:12.800 but it's really going counterculture now.

00:52:16.720 And I, as a libertarian,

00:52:19.320 I don't want to tell you what you have to do,

00:52:23.580 but we are going into a culture

00:52:26.040 that is wanting to make the decisions for people

00:52:29.320 and based on quality of life.

00:52:33.420 I don't know where to...

00:52:36.600 How do we change this?

00:52:38.040 How do we restart this human spark?

00:52:43.700 We look at why we're afraid of difference

00:52:48.260 and why in this particular case,

00:52:50.260 why are we afraid of disability?

00:52:52.500 Why are we afraid of mortality?

00:52:54.160 So why are we?

00:52:55.440 Have you...

00:52:55.880 Do you have a thought on it?

00:52:56.820 Why are we?

00:52:57.400 Well, yeah, I have lots of thoughts on it.

00:53:02.260 I think we're afraid

00:53:03.460 because we're all afraid of death.

00:53:07.260 For example, I was once on book tour

00:53:10.660 with an anthology called Staring Back that I edited.

00:53:14.060 And a very, very wonderful writer

00:53:16.060 named Susan Nespano lives in Chicago 0.64

00:53:17.940 was sitting at breakfast,

00:53:19.800 minding her own business.

00:53:20.740 And a woman just came over to her 1.00

00:53:23.220 and said,

00:53:24.560 I'm so glad you're here.

00:53:27.100 And Susan looked at her and said like,

00:53:29.120 what?

00:53:29.700 I'm eating breakfast.

00:53:30.760 What do you mean I'm so glad I'm here?

00:53:32.480 And the woman said to her, 0.99

00:53:34.080 I'm so glad I'm not you.

00:53:36.360 Oh my gosh.

00:53:38.480 Yeah.

00:53:39.140 And this woman had the need to go over 1.00

00:53:41.740 and actually say that to Susan.

00:53:44.240 It wasn't like, you know,

00:53:45.220 she was in conversation with her.

00:53:46.680 Susan was just minding her own business. 1.00

00:53:49.120 And I think that that's,

00:53:50.140 you know, it's the,

00:53:50.740 what's the,

00:53:51.380 I'm Jewish.

00:53:52.260 I'm not Christian. 0.83

00:53:52.980 So what if I say,

00:53:53.720 if I miss it,

00:53:54.860 if I miss up the phrase,

00:53:56.220 there for the grace of God go I?

00:53:57.940 Yeah.

00:53:58.920 Yeah.

00:53:59.720 If you look,

00:54:00.640 I mean, throughout history,

00:54:02.160 disability has been looked at

00:54:03.620 through the religious moral model

00:54:05.520 where the disabled person is looked at

00:54:07.680 as either very,

00:54:09.300 all totally good,

00:54:10.460 a saint or evil and a devil.

00:54:13.080 And then we move to the medical model

00:54:15.040 where the only way to deal with disability 0.65

00:54:16.560 is to basically kill it or cure it.

00:54:19.980 When,

00:54:20.480 if you really look at it,

00:54:21.640 the only way,

00:54:22.780 disability is really defined

00:54:24.220 by the society that you're in,

00:54:25.980 by the barriers that are put in your way.

00:54:29.140 It's really the society that disables people, 0.97

00:54:32.460 not the impairment itself in most cases.

00:54:35.520 I mean,

00:54:35.720 if you ask anybody,

00:54:37.280 you know,

00:54:37.640 what's more difficult,

00:54:38.780 being disabled or dealing with the barriers

00:54:40.680 put in your way,

00:54:41.340 they're going to say it's the barriers.

00:54:42.940 So,

00:54:44.480 I mean,

00:54:44.880 that's,

00:54:45.300 you know,

00:54:45.820 that's the dilemma we're in.

00:54:47.920 I hope that we get a chance to,

00:54:50.100 to speak again.

00:54:51.300 I,

00:54:51.520 I thank you so much for your time,

00:54:53.240 but I'd love to,

00:54:54.900 to have you in and,

00:54:56.500 and to have this continuing conversation with you.

00:55:00.700 It's one I think we desperately need as a society.

00:55:03.740 Thanks.

00:55:04.180 It's not just history too.

00:55:10.920 If you look at the op-ed from Kenny Fries,

00:55:12.760 he quotes Peter Singer,

00:55:14.960 the chair of ethics at Princeton,

00:55:16.260 saying this,

00:55:17.300 in 2015,

00:55:18.600 I don't want my health insurance premiums to be higher

00:55:21.080 so that infants who can experience zero quality of life 0.99

00:55:24.180 have expensive treatments.

00:55:26.540 Amazing.

00:55:27.420 His book,

00:55:28.340 by the way,

00:55:28.860 at World of Stew,

00:55:29.680 you can get the link to the book

00:55:30.780 and his op-ed of the New York Times.

00:56:21.100 Glenn Beck.

00:56:22.140 You know, I just have to tell you,

00:56:33.160 I'm so deeply offended,

00:56:35.220 what a surprise,

00:56:36.040 by something that Keith Ellison said

00:56:37.840 about DACA.

00:56:40.160 Listen to this.

00:56:40.740 So this is not someone else's fight.

00:56:43.360 This is all of our fight.

00:56:44.740 But some people are in the bullseye

00:56:46.580 and others of us are not exactly the target.

00:56:50.240 Therefore, it is our responsibility

00:56:51.720 to stand up, fight, and do the right thing.

00:56:53.520 And I'm going to tell you right now,

00:56:55.460 I'm one of the people who believes

00:56:57.360 we should give our neighbors sanctuary.

00:56:58.680 And if you ask yourself,

00:57:01.600 what would I do if I was a Gentile in 1941,

00:57:05.900 if my Jewish neighbors were under attack

00:57:07.780 by the Nazis?

00:57:11.100 Would I give them sanctuary?

00:57:13.000 You might be about to find out what you would do.

00:57:17.000 Will you pass that moral test,

00:57:18.720 or will you fail it?

00:57:20.380 So I just want to show you

00:57:22.780 that Keith Ellison has compared our government,

00:57:26.440 our workers, our president,

00:57:27.960 and everyone else,

00:57:29.600 directly to the Nazis.

00:57:32.560 And beyond that,

00:57:33.800 he has said that those who came here illegally,

00:57:37.540 who were not putting in gas chambers,

00:57:39.620 we want to send them back home,

00:57:41.660 are akin to the Jews that died in gas chambers.

00:57:45.600 Glenn Beck.

00:57:52.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:57:53.960 Thank you so much for listening today.

00:57:55.640 We have a lot going on.

00:57:58.200 There is a hurricane that is now wiping off the face of the earth.

00:58:03.380 They say that it's going to be uninhabitable for weeks,

00:58:06.100 if not months.

00:58:08.020 Puerto Rico will give you the update on that.

00:58:10.980 We had an earthquake yesterday in Mexico City.

00:58:15.480 We'll give you details on how you can help.

00:58:18.600 And wars,

00:58:19.880 rumors of wars.

00:58:20.580 September 23rd,

00:58:21.480 there's a lot of people that believe that this is talked about in the book of Revelation.

00:58:25.580 If we have a chance to talk about that,

00:58:27.760 just so you can pack your bags or not,

00:58:30.440 because September 23rd is Saturday.

00:58:34.440 And there are a lot of people that are believing,

00:58:36.740 I'm not one of them,

00:58:37.440 but there are a lot of people believing that that is in the book of Revelation.

00:58:41.280 And this is the day of rapture.

00:58:45.120 What a great day to subscribe to the blaze,

00:58:46.960 because you're probably not going to have to make the payment.

00:58:49.080 Right?

00:58:49.360 After the second month.

00:58:50.020 You get all of it for free,

00:58:51.260 and then you're gone.

00:58:53.080 Yeah,

00:58:53.300 because you can get,

00:58:53.720 I think there's some sort of intro period.

00:58:56.200 We're like,

00:58:56.540 where's this deadbeat that promised us the $9.99 a month?

00:58:59.840 He just left his clothes there on his desk,

00:59:02.320 in his chair,

00:59:02.900 in his office.

00:59:04.060 All right.

00:59:04.980 So we have that coming up in a minute.

00:59:06.560 So the podcast,

00:59:08.980 How I Built This,

00:59:10.320 is one of my favorites.

00:59:11.440 Yeah.

00:59:11.640 And it just,

00:59:12.060 they do interviews with all these people who started these amazing businesses,

00:59:15.080 and how they did it.

00:59:16.260 And the stories are really interesting,

00:59:18.040 if you love how these things happen.

00:59:20.420 There's one interesting one lately,

00:59:23.100 with Jen Hyman.

00:59:24.240 She's the founder of Rent the Runway.

00:59:26.680 Did you know Rent the Runway, Glenn?

00:59:28.240 I have three daughters,

00:59:31.100 and a wife.

00:59:31.680 So you are.

00:59:32.020 I'm very well aware.

00:59:33.400 Of Rent the Runway.

00:59:34.520 Which I think is actually brilliant.

00:59:36.460 It's a brilliant idea.

00:59:37.420 Brilliant idea.

00:59:38.320 Exactly.

00:59:38.800 It's interesting that you use that,

00:59:41.260 because we're going to come back to the wording you just used there.

00:59:43.660 This is Jen Hyman talking about how she was coming up,

00:59:46.760 and very early on,

00:59:48.100 how she's developing the idea for this business.

00:59:50.140 Listen.

00:59:50.800 I had this thesis that we had entered the experience economy,

00:59:55.660 and people were getting married later,

00:59:57.860 and starting to value experiences like travel over owning things.

01:00:03.400 And so I had an idea at the time to launch the first honeymoon registry in the world,

01:00:10.120 where couples could register for their honeymoons,

01:00:14.260 and their friends and family could contribute by,

01:00:16.780 you know,

01:00:17.520 paying for scuba diving,

01:00:18.680 or paying for a massage or a hotel night,

01:00:20.740 as opposed to buying them pots and pans.

01:00:23.000 And so as a 22-year-old,

01:00:26.280 I was really passionate about this idea.

01:00:29.980 I emailed the president of Starwood,

01:00:32.860 and I pitched him on this idea to start a wedding business.

01:00:38.360 Now, again, that's a brilliant thought, right?

01:00:41.060 It is.

01:00:41.280 She's 22 years old,

01:00:42.400 and she's thinking of the world that way.

01:00:43.860 Yes, love it.

01:00:44.360 Really smart.

01:00:45.400 Now she comes up with Rent the Runway, 1.00

01:00:47.580 which if you don't know,

01:00:48.140 she's going to explain kind of what it is here.

01:00:50.360 It is brilliant.

01:00:51.240 It is a brilliant idea,

01:00:52.020 and it also says,

01:00:52.980 and the way she explains this,

01:00:54.460 it says something so profound about where we are as a society.

01:00:58.100 Listen.

01:00:58.300 As her responsible older sister,

01:01:01.980 I was remarking how she should probably wear 0.75

01:01:05.940 one of the dresses in her closet again,

01:01:08.940 as opposed to being in credit card debt.

01:01:11.560 And her response to me was,

01:01:13.960 you know,

01:01:14.580 everything in my closet is dead to me.

01:01:17.000 I've been photographed in it.

01:01:18.860 The photographs are up on Facebook,

01:01:20.480 and I need something new.

01:01:22.080 Oh my gosh.

01:01:22.800 And, you know,

01:01:23.480 Becky was a 25-year-old,

01:01:25.520 like, normal girl who lived in New York.

01:01:27.800 She wasn't a celebrity,

01:01:29.260 but she was talking about being photographed

01:01:32.080 and not being able to wear something again.

01:01:35.700 And it was a light bulb moment for me,

01:01:38.300 because I realized I was having a conversation with my sister

01:01:41.760 about the experience of wearing an amazing dress,

01:01:46.400 of walking into a party,

01:01:47.900 feeling self-confident and feeling beautiful,

01:01:49.960 and that's what she cared about.

01:01:51.820 And she didn't care about the actual ownership

01:01:55.000 of the items in her closet.

01:01:56.640 The other thing she cared about

01:01:58.540 was the photograph that would exist after the party

01:02:02.120 that she could post on Facebook

01:02:03.880 and kind of share with everyone she knew

01:02:06.120 how awesome she felt

01:02:07.340 and how confident she felt at that wedding.

01:02:09.440 I mean...

01:02:10.600 Okay, so here's another reason.

01:02:13.440 This is why she's successful. 0.98

01:02:15.240 If my sister would have said that to me,

01:02:17.620 I wouldn't have thought of a business idea.

01:02:19.800 I would have thought,

01:02:20.640 what the hell is wrong with you?

01:02:22.100 Right, exactly.

01:02:23.700 What is wrong with you?

01:02:24.860 What is...

01:02:25.580 I would have gone into,

01:02:26.860 well, we're going into an experience economy.

01:02:28.960 I would have gone to,

01:02:29.880 we are doomed as a people.

01:02:32.400 Exactly.

01:02:32.980 That's why she's a success, right?

01:02:35.000 Right.

01:02:35.500 She's finding a way.

01:02:36.580 As we're going to hell,

01:02:38.300 she's like,

01:02:38.960 wait, we can make money on this.

01:02:40.640 Yeah, it's exactly.

01:02:42.580 So she... 0.98

01:02:43.420 Again, you use the word brilliant.

01:02:44.720 I think that's completely applicable here.

01:02:46.640 These are genius thoughts.

01:02:48.680 If I could ever think like this in these moments...

01:02:51.360 Rent the Runway is truly brilliant.

01:02:53.680 And if you don't know the business model,

01:02:55.140 essentially she solved the problem her sister had 0.94

01:02:57.400 by you're able to now rent

01:02:59.720 these ridiculously expensive dresses

01:03:02.560 for one night,

01:03:03.800 and then you send them back.

01:03:04.820 Right.

01:03:05.420 And they'll send them to you.

01:03:06.360 They send you in two different sizes,

01:03:07.640 so you can make sure the one fits perfectly.

01:03:10.140 Then you send both of them back.

01:03:11.400 You have the night with the glamorous thing

01:03:13.220 that Jennifer Aniston's wearing. 0.68

01:03:14.580 Literally, you know,

01:03:15.360 they can be up to like $5,000 dresses.

01:03:17.800 Yeah, exactly.

01:03:18.140 I mean...

01:03:18.600 All the best designers.

01:03:19.440 Right.

01:03:19.960 And you're renting them

01:03:21.640 instead of buying it once

01:03:23.740 and then never, ever wearing it again.

01:03:27.420 Yeah.

01:03:27.760 So stupid.

01:03:28.840 It's an amazing...

01:03:29.800 It's a great idea, right?

01:03:31.400 Also, to show you how successful they are,

01:03:33.260 they are now the largest dry cleaner in America.

01:03:36.160 Oh my gosh.

01:03:36.840 That's how successful this business is.

01:03:39.020 But she goes into a conversation later on

01:03:41.980 about sexual harassment

01:03:44.540 and sexual discrimination against women.

01:03:46.680 She's a female business owner. 1.00

01:03:48.040 Obviously, this is something

01:03:48.680 that's going to come up, right?

01:03:50.660 In an interview.

01:03:52.240 And it was really interesting.

01:03:54.060 Is it?

01:03:54.760 I think it is, right?

01:03:55.940 In today's day and age,

01:03:56.940 I think it is.

01:03:57.680 It wouldn't be in mine either.

01:03:58.560 Yeah.

01:03:58.860 But I mean, that's where this interview went.

01:04:01.540 And she talked about one incident,

01:04:02.880 which was really legitimate, standard,

01:04:06.120 what you'd think about

01:04:07.320 when you thought of sexual harassment towards women.

01:04:10.120 And she had a real concrete example of that.

01:04:13.880 But she went further than that one

01:04:16.060 and talked about a more subtle form of it.

01:04:18.220 And I thought this was a really interesting lesson

01:04:21.300 about business today

01:04:23.200 and how difficult it's got to be to navigate.

01:04:25.600 Listen.

01:04:25.740 The second form of sexual harassment

01:04:31.800 slash gender discrimination

01:04:35.480 is way more subtle.

01:04:38.060 And it's way more difficult to prove.

01:04:40.400 But for instance,

01:04:41.520 overall, I have seen male founders

01:04:44.440 receive, you know,

01:04:46.360 sometimes more mentorship

01:04:48.300 or more chances to be successful.

01:04:52.660 They get more strikes against them

01:04:55.780 before their investors kind of pull the plugs.

01:04:58.500 And in a lot of cases,

01:04:59.660 women are only given, 1.00

01:05:01.200 you know, it's a one striker,

01:05:02.360 you're out as the CEO and founder.

01:05:05.200 So hang on.

01:05:06.140 May I just say,

01:05:07.200 do you hear conservatives bitching about that?

01:05:09.480 Because that's a conservative's life.

01:05:11.120 I can't tell you how I was introduced to people,

01:05:14.740 you know, even just this last weekend

01:05:16.600 compared to how,

01:05:17.800 what the options were for everyone else.

01:05:20.420 Because I was a conservative

01:05:21.640 in a room full of liberals

01:05:23.080 because I think differently.

01:05:25.440 Not because of my gender.

01:05:26.740 This happens.

01:05:27.920 And you can either let it crush you

01:05:29.320 or you can get up off your ass 0.97

01:05:30.980 and move on.

01:05:33.240 Now, again,

01:05:34.240 I thought it was an interesting thing

01:05:35.580 of less opportunity at mentorship.

01:05:39.220 Just think about that for a second.

01:05:41.660 She's saying that like,

01:05:42.660 you know,

01:05:42.980 a male is going to look at another male 1.00

01:05:44.400 and relate to them

01:05:45.980 and bring them along

01:05:46.720 and give them opportunities.

01:05:48.020 Now,

01:05:48.800 she tries to illustrate

01:05:49.820 what she means

01:05:50.640 by these subtle forms

01:05:51.680 of a sexual harassment.

01:05:53.760 Listen.

01:05:54.520 There was a time early in my career

01:05:56.120 where an investment firm,

01:05:59.100 you know,

01:05:59.800 said to me,

01:06:00.780 oh, Jen,

01:06:01.300 you know,

01:06:01.460 you should really meet

01:06:02.460 these other entrepreneurs.

01:06:04.740 They're around your own age.

01:06:06.080 They're brilliant.

01:06:06.700 You could learn a lot from them.

01:06:08.840 They're building incredible companies.

01:06:10.660 They're going to change the world.

01:06:12.040 Now,

01:06:12.200 all of those entrepreneurs were men

01:06:14.540 and they were kind of prefaced

01:06:16.440 as being geniuses,

01:06:17.440 brilliant,

01:06:17.900 et cetera.

01:06:18.780 And this same firm

01:06:20.840 never introduced me

01:06:22.020 in that same way

01:06:22.960 to those same entrepreneurs,

01:06:24.180 even though we were

01:06:25.180 at similar tenure

01:06:26.220 and similar stages

01:06:27.800 in our company.

01:06:28.820 The irony is

01:06:29.940 a lot of those guys,

01:06:31.860 their businesses,

01:06:32.840 you know,

01:06:33.940 aren't around anymore.

01:06:35.080 Yeah.

01:06:35.900 And,

01:06:36.520 you know,

01:06:37.140 I'm the one

01:06:37.620 who's still chugging.

01:06:38.960 Wait,

01:06:39.280 is that,

01:06:39.680 but wait,

01:06:40.160 is that,

01:06:40.680 is that sexual discrimination

01:06:42.520 or is that you're used to something?

01:06:44.940 I'm working with somebody

01:06:46.700 day to day

01:06:47.800 and I say,

01:06:48.940 oh my gosh,

01:06:49.340 you have to meet

01:06:50.280 all of these brilliant people

01:06:51.620 that I know over here.

01:06:54.400 I mean,

01:06:55.240 I'm working with you.

01:06:56.880 Is that discrimination

01:06:57.920 or is that just,

01:06:59.040 I'm just used to you

01:07:00.180 and I want to introduce you

01:07:01.860 to these brilliant people

01:07:03.480 that will help you

01:07:04.680 and I'm sorry

01:07:06.640 I didn't go out

01:07:07.960 and say I have this

01:07:08.960 really brilliant people.

01:07:09.840 I'm trying to help you.

01:07:11.460 Yeah.

01:07:11.620 I mean,

01:07:12.060 another way of describing

01:07:13.620 a business person

01:07:15.120 saying to one

01:07:16.140 up-and-coming business person,

01:07:17.800 hey,

01:07:18.020 here's a bunch of geniuses

01:07:19.040 you should talk to

01:07:19.680 is mentorship.

01:07:21.840 The thing she's saying

01:07:23.620 she doesn't get

01:07:24.720 and it's a subtle form

01:07:25.940 of sexual harassment

01:07:26.780 is what that business owner

01:07:28.980 was trying to do.

01:07:30.580 He was trying to mentor her

01:07:32.520 and bring her into a group

01:07:34.180 of other smart people

01:07:35.280 and what he gets for that

01:07:37.280 is later on,

01:07:38.320 years later,

01:07:38.880 in an interview,

01:07:40.080 his efforts are described

01:07:41.480 as sexual harassment

01:07:42.900 and you wonder why

01:07:45.160 partially women 1.00

01:07:47.280 might get fewer opportunities

01:07:48.840 is because male business owners 1.00

01:07:50.540 are terrified

01:07:51.140 of what just happened there.

01:07:52.520 You know what?

01:07:55.040 It's not just that.

01:07:57.860 It's not just women. 1.00

01:07:59.360 It's across the spectrum

01:08:01.900 and it's why we don't talk to each other

01:08:03.960 and quite honestly,

01:08:06.260 I think,

01:08:08.120 you know the hierarchy of needs?

01:08:10.400 You know,

01:08:10.740 Maslow's hierarchy of needs?

01:08:12.900 I think that's been

01:08:14.820 turned upside down

01:08:16.000 but there's a different way

01:08:18.560 to look at it.

01:08:19.960 There's another triangle

01:08:21.520 that America has invented 0.96

01:08:23.040 and that is sitting

01:08:24.080 on top of that triangle

01:08:25.600 and I'm going to share that

01:08:27.120 on tomorrow's broadcast.

01:08:29.540 When it comes to your mortgage,

01:08:31.280 buying or refinancing,

01:08:32.960 you need people

01:08:34.180 that take away the stress

01:08:35.900 in your life

01:08:36.580 and not add any more.

01:08:37.760 That's why there's

01:08:38.260 American Financing.

01:08:39.460 The salary-based mortgage consultants

01:08:41.100 at American Financing

01:08:42.460 are dedicated

01:08:43.680 to making sure

01:08:44.960 that you make

01:08:45.580 a smart mortgage decision

01:08:47.280 that aligns with your goals

01:08:49.260 and your finances.

01:08:53.200 Banks are selling you something.

01:08:54.860 They're trying to get you

01:08:55.700 to buy something.

01:08:57.320 You know,

01:08:57.540 you go into a car dealership,

01:08:59.300 you know that they are,

01:09:00.660 they're motivated

01:09:01.380 to sell that car

01:09:02.320 because they win.

01:09:03.960 American Financing

01:09:04.740 is not motivated

01:09:05.920 to sell you

01:09:06.760 a certain car

01:09:07.620 or a certain mortgage.

01:09:08.920 They have no skin

01:09:10.100 in that game.

01:09:11.540 The skin in the game

01:09:12.400 is that you're doing

01:09:13.240 business with them

01:09:14.300 and they're going to find

01:09:15.700 the right one

01:09:16.620 because they know

01:09:17.420 if they treat you right

01:09:18.580 this time

01:09:19.360 and get you the right mortgage

01:09:20.760 the next time

01:09:21.600 or the time you want

01:09:22.940 to refinance

01:09:23.800 or the next time

01:09:24.860 you want to buy a house

01:09:25.540 or the next time

01:09:26.020 a friend says buy a house.

01:09:27.380 If they treat you right

01:09:28.320 and give you the best deal,

01:09:30.800 that's how they win.

01:09:32.760 American Financing

01:09:33.520 is now doing

01:09:34.040 reverse mortgages

01:09:35.040 which are a good way

01:09:36.100 to increase your monthly cash flow

01:09:37.560 with no mortgage payment

01:09:38.780 while still retaining ownership

01:09:40.380 for your home

01:09:41.000 but you need the information

01:09:42.000 on and find out

01:09:42.600 if it's right for you.

01:09:43.940 I want you to call

01:09:44.580 their number

01:09:44.880 800-906-2440.

01:09:47.420 That's 1-800-906-2440

01:09:51.120 or online

01:10:03.980 Glenn Beck

01:10:08.060 Glenn Beck

01:10:15.500 Jonathan Dunn

01:10:17.020 who is over in Ireland

01:10:19.880 and a listener of this program

01:10:22.300 and has been kind of writing

01:10:24.780 and doing some podcasts

01:10:26.500 with us over the years

01:10:27.620 happens to be visiting here

01:10:28.680 in the United States

01:10:29.380 and giving some speeches

01:10:31.600 and talks around the United States

01:10:34.060 happens to be in our studio today.

01:10:35.980 Hi Jonathan, how are you?

01:10:36.880 How are you doing sir?

01:10:37.420 How are you?

01:10:37.840 I'm good.

01:10:38.760 So first of all

01:10:41.060 you have tried to

01:10:43.980 come over and work

01:10:45.600 in the United States

01:10:47.240 and which country doesn't want you?

01:10:49.280 Is it us or is it

01:10:50.400 Ireland just doesn't want to let you go?

01:10:53.400 No, I don't meet the visa requirements

01:10:54.980 to get over here

01:10:56.180 so I don't meet the education

01:10:57.500 or the work requirements

01:10:58.460 to get a work visa

01:10:59.540 to come over here

01:11:00.220 to the great state of Texas

01:11:01.700 and America

01:11:02.200 but it is what it is.

01:11:04.880 So my dream is dead

01:11:06.280 but my service starts now.

01:11:07.720 Yeah, so your dream's not dead

01:11:09.360 it's just on hold.

01:11:10.560 It's just on hold.

01:11:11.380 It feels dead.

01:11:12.280 Does it?

01:11:12.860 Yes.

01:11:13.680 You've wanted you

01:11:14.500 because you were a weird kid

01:11:16.220 you've always loved the United States

01:11:18.260 and that's weird over there.

01:11:21.720 Isn't it?

01:11:22.480 Absolutely.

01:11:23.920 So picture yourself

01:11:25.440 as a seven or eight year old boy

01:11:26.600 in Ireland

01:11:27.680 dull, boring weather

01:11:29.060 boring climate

01:11:30.080 just seeing the status quo

01:11:31.900 and then you get to transport

01:11:33.820 and go over to Clearwater, Florida

01:11:35.180 warm weather

01:11:35.960 different climate

01:11:37.000 beautiful women 1.00

01:11:37.760 great food

01:11:38.600 great sports

01:11:39.740 Right.

01:11:40.460 I was in love from day one.

01:11:41.860 Right.

01:11:42.500 It's a love of fear

01:11:43.520 that hasn't ended.

01:11:44.100 And it's not just because

01:11:45.540 of the beaches

01:11:46.000 and everything else

01:11:46.700 you've actually become

01:11:47.740 a fan of the founders.

01:11:50.260 Absolutely.

01:11:50.840 So I fell in love

01:11:51.760 with the country

01:11:52.240 and that's what started

01:11:53.840 the love of fear

01:11:54.440 but then as I learned

01:11:55.280 more about your history

01:11:56.120 I've become absolutely

01:11:57.520 fascinated with the idea

01:11:58.760 of America

01:11:59.260 and it's an idea

01:12:00.260 that the world needs to hear.

01:12:02.060 And you are

01:12:02.920 you're

01:12:05.640 I sense this frustration

01:12:07.240 in you

01:12:07.960 in some way

01:12:09.520 that you have

01:12:11.860 a friend

01:12:12.540 in America

01:12:13.720 that is beating

01:12:15.200 itself up

01:12:16.060 and you're like

01:12:17.040 what the hell's wrong

01:12:18.180 with you?

01:12:19.460 Well it's

01:12:19.740 it's beating itself up

01:12:20.860 because you're listening

01:12:21.460 to the media

01:12:21.900 and the politicians

01:12:22.560 tell you you suck 0.98

01:12:23.560 and it's not the case.

01:12:25.540 So as an Irishman

01:12:26.800 I have one thing

01:12:27.400 in common

01:12:27.780 with a famous Frenchman.

01:12:28.900 I don't have many things

01:12:29.680 in common with France

01:12:30.400 but I share the sentiment

01:12:31.620 of Alexis de Tocqueville

01:12:32.620 America is great

01:12:33.760 because Americans are good

01:12:34.900 and that's a slam

01:12:36.220 on the rest of the world

01:12:37.080 because the difference

01:12:38.480 about America

01:12:39.200 compared to the world

01:12:40.060 is there are many

01:12:40.820 there are many

01:12:41.440 you're the exact opposite

01:12:42.260 but one of the things

01:12:43.380 is you're about

01:12:43.860 the individual

01:12:44.380 so I tell people

01:12:45.340 when I think of Great Britain

01:12:46.340 I think of the Queen

01:12:47.140 when you think of Iran

01:12:48.220 right now

01:12:48.600 you think of the Ayatollah

01:12:49.500 when you think of

01:12:50.400 North Korea

01:12:50.900 you think of King Jong-un

01:12:51.960 when I think of America

01:12:53.220 I always think of your people

01:12:54.580 and your people

01:12:55.740 have been over here

01:12:56.600 watching and hearing

01:12:57.700 the stories of Houston

01:12:58.780 total devastation

01:13:00.580 yet your people

01:13:02.040 have stood up

01:13:03.020 your people have sacrificed

01:13:04.360 Do you think that

01:13:04.540 the people of Ireland

01:13:06.080 wouldn't have done that?

01:13:07.940 They would have done

01:13:08.880 helped

01:13:09.320 they might have helped

01:13:10.480 some points

01:13:11.000 but I've heard stories

01:13:12.120 I've met a man

01:13:13.840 a wonderful gentleman

01:13:14.820 and he shared a story

01:13:16.180 of how he hasn't had

01:13:17.060 light and heat

01:13:17.640 in his house

01:13:18.000 for two weeks

01:13:18.720 so he hasn't got money

01:13:20.620 but yet he has money

01:13:21.800 to put gasoline

01:13:22.500 into drums

01:13:23.040 to bring down to Houston

01:13:24.000 Irish people

01:13:25.180 would help people

01:13:25.840 if they had the money spare

01:13:26.920 but in Ireland

01:13:28.060 and in Europe

01:13:28.620 if the choice is

01:13:29.400 I eat or you eat

01:13:30.300 that's not an equation

01:13:32.200 that you want to hear

01:13:32.840 the answer to

01:13:33.380 America time and time again

01:13:35.340 helps each other

01:13:36.320 factually

01:13:36.740 you go look at

01:13:37.440 who donates the most

01:13:38.240 time and money

01:13:38.840 factually

01:13:39.540 America is right there

01:13:41.080 at the top

01:13:41.540 it's behind Miramar

01:13:42.460 which is not really

01:13:43.980 shouldn't even be counted

01:13:44.840 but time and time again

01:13:46.720 you shared a story

01:13:47.320 earlier on

01:13:47.840 about the dating

01:13:48.880 that's the culture

01:13:50.220 you choose

01:13:51.360 to help other people

01:13:52.560 your wonderful

01:13:53.500 nation is so wonderful

01:13:54.720 not because of a president

01:13:56.060 not because of a congress

01:13:57.240 not even true

01:13:58.320 to the constitution

01:13:59.180 it's because of your people

01:14:00.820 so let me return the favor

01:14:02.580 I read a book

01:14:04.060 about Ireland

01:14:04.980 this week

01:14:05.820 this summer

01:14:06.820 it's how the Irish 0.91

01:14:08.200 saved the western

01:14:09.200 civilization

01:14:09.820 have you ever read that

01:14:10.440 it's fascinating

01:14:11.840 one of the things

01:14:13.380 that I learned

01:14:14.840 is about the truth

01:14:17.560 on St. Patrick

01:14:18.720 okay

01:14:19.420 and driving the snakes

01:14:20.680 which didn't happen

01:14:21.800 we love our myths

01:14:23.760 before you go home

01:14:25.100 tomorrow

01:14:25.420 maybe you can come

01:14:26.160 back tomorrow

01:14:26.680 I want to ask you

01:14:28.280 the question

01:14:28.800 that I found out

01:14:29.960 about St. Patrick

01:14:31.040 it is a completely

01:14:32.360 different story

01:14:33.140 and the world needs

01:14:34.300 to hear that story

01:14:35.440 not the one

01:14:36.720 that we all go out

01:14:37.920 and just drink

01:14:38.680 our faces off for

01:16:09.220 Glenn Beck

01:16:10.720 what is the point

01:16:11.520 of diversity

01:16:12.120 seriously

01:16:12.820 I mean diversity

01:16:13.760 for diversity's sake

01:16:14.780 is absolutely

01:16:15.640 meaningless

01:16:16.460 for college

01:16:17.740 campuses

01:16:18.660 the educational

01:16:19.860 system here

01:16:20.720 in America

01:16:21.520 let me rephrase that

01:16:22.460 America's educational

01:16:24.300 industry

01:16:25.640 diversity

01:16:27.180 is very meaningful

01:16:28.260 apparently diversity

01:16:30.220 at American elite

01:16:31.180 colleges

01:16:31.800 however is in

01:16:33.240 jeopardy

01:16:34.220 according to the

01:16:34.920 New York Times

01:16:35.480 15% of American

01:16:37.420 18 year olds

01:16:38.520 were black

01:16:39.180 and 22%

01:16:40.280 Hispanic

01:16:40.800 in 2015

01:16:41.900 yet college

01:16:43.000 freshmen

01:16:43.400 at elite colleges

01:16:44.420 were only 6%

01:16:45.360 black

01:16:45.640 and 13%

01:16:46.680 Hispanic

01:16:47.420 and those

01:16:48.960 numbers were

01:16:49.700 lower than they

01:16:50.440 were in 1980

01:16:51.300 now this

01:16:53.200 is a crisis

01:16:54.820 for progressives

01:16:56.080 the New York

01:16:57.200 Times say

01:16:57.660 these colleges

01:16:58.160 need to go

01:16:59.000 above and

01:16:59.520 beyond

01:16:59.880 affirmative

01:17:00.940 action

01:17:01.460 and fix

01:17:02.500 this problem

01:17:03.360 we need

01:17:04.140 more

01:17:04.960 than

01:17:05.880 affirmative

01:17:06.360 action

01:17:06.920 a Georgetown

01:17:07.960 law professor

01:17:08.700 says

01:17:09.100 elite colleges

01:17:09.800 will only

01:17:10.240 reflect

01:17:10.620 America's

01:17:11.060 overall

01:17:11.380 diversity

01:17:12.020 when colleges

01:17:12.680 blow up

01:17:13.780 the system

01:17:14.680 of admissions

01:17:16.080 they even

01:17:17.240 propose that

01:17:18.060 colleges stop

01:17:18.820 using standardized

01:17:19.520 test scores

01:17:20.400 I mean

01:17:21.220 we can't

01:17:21.840 test people

01:17:22.660 do you

01:17:25.160 want these

01:17:26.660 people

01:17:27.080 graduating

01:17:27.820 from colleges

01:17:28.420 like this

01:17:28.880 building airplanes

01:17:29.720 that you're

01:17:30.080 going to fly

01:17:30.460 in because

01:17:30.860 I don't

01:17:31.620 I like

01:17:32.380 a standard

01:17:32.980 can I see

01:17:34.340 your test

01:17:34.720 scores please

01:17:35.320 we have to

01:17:37.600 stop with

01:17:38.240 the diversity

01:17:38.740 hand-wringing

01:17:40.020 affirmative

01:17:41.640 action is

01:17:42.680 inherently

01:17:43.260 unfair

01:17:44.040 and perhaps

01:17:45.040 it started

01:17:45.580 with good

01:17:46.000 intentions

01:17:46.580 but like

01:17:47.740 most progressive

01:17:48.580 ideas

01:17:49.100 it's imploded

01:17:50.520 how about

01:17:52.320 an emission

01:17:52.680 system that

01:17:53.260 is simply

01:17:53.760 merit-based

01:17:54.660 I don't

01:17:55.060 care about

01:17:55.700 the color

01:17:56.060 of your

01:17:56.340 skin

01:17:56.620 I don't

01:17:57.340 care

01:17:57.880 I don't

01:17:59.120 care what

01:17:59.740 you call

01:18:00.280 yourself

01:18:00.900 I don't

01:18:01.600 care what

01:18:02.000 gender

01:18:02.580 you

01:18:02.880 I don't

01:18:03.220 care if

01:18:03.520 you think

01:18:03.840 you're a

01:18:04.160 space

01:18:04.520 alien

01:18:04.900 what have

01:18:06.760 you been

01:18:06.960 doing

01:18:07.240 show me

01:18:08.300 your work

01:18:08.880 that's it

01:18:09.680 is it

01:18:09.940 too much

01:18:10.340 to ask

01:18:10.980 maybe it's

01:18:13.400 also time

01:18:13.880 to look at

01:18:14.500 how much

01:18:14.920 we're paying

01:18:15.560 for an

01:18:16.060 education

01:18:16.580 college is

01:18:17.760 now insanely

01:18:18.920 expensive

01:18:20.140 insanely

01:18:21.520 even though

01:18:23.380 our elite

01:18:24.000 colleges have

01:18:24.800 endowments

01:18:25.340 that are worth

01:18:26.180 billions of

01:18:27.240 dollars

01:18:27.560 all tax

01:18:28.400 exempt

01:18:28.780 tuition is

01:18:29.820 more expensive

01:18:30.500 than ever

01:18:31.040 and goes up

01:18:31.680 about 41%

01:18:33.180 in the last

01:18:33.780 few years

01:18:34.280 why

01:18:35.420 because

01:18:38.220 college is

01:18:39.160 big business

01:18:39.860 and progressivism

01:18:41.400 and affirmative

01:18:42.160 action

01:18:42.700 are all

01:18:43.940 part of

01:18:44.880 the game

01:18:45.500 it's

01:18:56.860 Wednesday

01:18:57.340 September 20th

01:18:58.660 you're listening

01:18:59.560 to the

01:18:59.920 Glenn Beck

01:19:00.360 program

01:19:00.840 so how

01:19:02.800 good do we

01:19:03.240 have it here

01:19:03.680 in America

01:19:04.180 let me

01:19:05.180 just have you

01:19:06.140 answer this

01:19:07.180 question

01:19:07.540 have you ever

01:19:08.120 been so

01:19:08.680 destitute that

01:19:09.420 you actually

01:19:10.040 thought I

01:19:10.980 wonder how

01:19:12.560 much they'd

01:19:13.200 give me for

01:19:13.660 my kidney

01:19:14.220 I can guarantee

01:19:18.080 you that it

01:19:19.080 has been

01:19:19.600 thought of

01:19:20.160 in many

01:19:21.100 places

01:19:21.780 around the

01:19:22.480 world

01:19:22.820 but not

01:19:23.440 here in

01:19:23.980 America

01:19:24.420 I mean

01:19:27.420 I mean

01:19:28.380 going to a

01:19:28.860 loan shark

01:19:29.420 selling one

01:19:30.200 of your

01:19:30.520 organs

01:19:31.180 on the

01:19:31.660 black market

01:19:32.300 for quick

01:19:32.880 cash

01:19:33.340 how much

01:19:36.780 are your

01:19:37.120 organs

01:19:37.620 worth

01:19:38.720 how much

01:19:39.900 could you

01:19:40.260 sell your

01:19:40.640 eyes for

01:19:41.340 if you

01:19:41.780 were forced

01:19:42.140 to sell

01:19:42.500 them

01:19:42.720 how much

01:19:44.020 could your

01:19:44.300 family get

01:19:44.720 for your

01:19:45.020 heart

01:19:45.360 these organs

01:19:47.660 are actually

01:19:48.120 worth a lot

01:19:48.920 more than

01:19:49.740 you thought

01:19:50.440 a kidney

01:19:50.880 can fetch

01:19:51.640 two hundred

01:19:52.520 thousand dollars

01:19:53.520 on the black

01:19:54.100 market

01:19:54.500 by the way

01:19:56.500 75% of all

01:19:57.800 black market

01:19:58.380 sales

01:19:58.800 kidneys

01:20:00.320 all-time

01:20:02.000 bestseller

01:20:02.420 this kidney's

01:20:03.100 got to go

01:20:03.960 corneas

01:20:06.100 twenty four

01:20:08.280 thousand

01:20:08.700 four hundred

01:20:09.220 dollars

01:20:09.680 the heart

01:20:12.440 is only

01:20:12.860 worth

01:20:13.100 one hundred

01:20:13.400 and nineteen

01:20:13.900 thousand

01:20:14.540 bone marrow

01:20:18.760 you can sell

01:20:19.560 your bone

01:20:20.000 marrow

01:20:20.320 twenty three

01:20:21.320 thousand dollars

01:20:22.120 per gram

01:20:22.920 I mean

01:20:24.740 I don't know

01:20:26.720 how much

01:20:27.120 marrow is in

01:20:28.200 there but

01:20:28.760 I might have

01:20:30.460 it twenty three

01:20:30.980 thousand a gram

01:20:31.720 I might have

01:20:32.240 some marrow

01:20:32.680 I could

01:20:33.040 spare from

01:20:33.520 time to

01:20:33.880 time

01:20:34.140 the reason

01:20:38.000 why I bring

01:20:38.360 this up

01:20:38.780 is because

01:20:40.140 I mean it's

01:20:41.680 insane that

01:20:42.120 there is a

01:20:42.460 price list

01:20:42.960 for organs

01:20:44.700 but there's

01:20:49.760 also a

01:20:50.180 problem with

01:20:51.400 organ sales

01:20:52.500 and especially

01:20:53.720 it's happening

01:20:54.480 in the Middle

01:20:55.060 East

01:20:55.400 we were going

01:20:59.120 to announce

01:20:59.440 something

01:20:59.860 with Operation

01:21:01.540 OUR

01:21:02.000 this week

01:21:03.020 but because

01:21:03.880 they are

01:21:04.700 having some

01:21:05.440 really dicey

01:21:06.460 elections

01:21:07.040 going on

01:21:08.140 right now

01:21:08.620 and we have

01:21:09.160 to see how

01:21:09.780 the dust

01:21:10.280 settles

01:21:10.780 they have a

01:21:11.220 referendum

01:21:11.640 going on

01:21:12.540 we have to

01:21:13.460 see how the

01:21:14.160 dust settles

01:21:14.700 we're putting

01:21:15.740 that on pause

01:21:16.620 for a little

01:21:17.140 while but we

01:21:17.720 are ready to

01:21:18.460 do something

01:21:19.340 truly remarkable

01:21:21.440 truly remarkable

01:21:23.980 but because

01:21:28.880 of what I've

01:21:30.080 been working

01:21:30.500 on I happen

01:21:31.260 to know about

01:21:31.980 the organ sales

01:21:32.920 that are going

01:21:33.420 on did you

01:21:34.240 see the report

01:21:34.740 yesterday Stu

01:21:35.420 on the number

01:21:36.320 of slaves

01:21:36.980 that are out

01:21:38.300 now yeah I

01:21:39.380 mean was it

01:21:40.340 40 40.3

01:21:42.360 million 40.3

01:21:44.320 million slaves

01:21:44.780 and that's more

01:21:45.580 than the entire

01:21:47.380 history of the

01:21:49.880 old school slave

01:21:50.900 trade that we

01:21:51.380 think was so

01:21:52.080 I this weekend

01:21:53.640 I was up at

01:21:54.220 the Nantucket

01:21:54.760 project and I

01:21:55.920 said I was

01:21:56.560 talking about

01:21:56.940 slavery and I

01:21:58.280 said there are

01:21:58.700 more slavery

01:21:59.560 more slaves than

01:22:01.320 the entire

01:22:02.060 Western slave 0.96

01:22:03.100 trade the 400

01:22:04.360 years of Western

01:22:05.960 slave trade

01:22:06.640 alive today

01:22:08.600 combined all

01:22:10.800 of them combined

01:22:11.860 400 years

01:22:12.740 there's more of

01:22:13.800 more people alive

01:22:14.960 today in chains

01:22:15.760 than that as an

01:22:17.240 incredible stat and

01:22:18.420 to to back you on

01:22:19.780 that when you

01:22:20.620 first said it I

01:22:21.240 was like oh

01:22:21.660 geez where did

01:22:22.240 I get that I

01:22:23.940 mean I didn't

01:22:24.580 believe you and

01:22:25.500 I so I went and

01:22:26.580 looked it up and

01:22:27.280 it is actually

01:22:28.180 legitimately a true

01:22:29.560 statistic so I and

01:22:31.220 you're a stat boy so

01:22:32.720 I know you would have

01:22:33.380 looked it up but

01:22:34.860 that's what my my

01:22:35.940 daughter said was 0.59

01:22:37.000 because she was

01:22:37.400 sitting in the

01:22:37.780 crowd and she said 0.79

01:22:38.820 nobody believed you

01:22:39.460 on that stat dad

01:22:40.200 I didn't believe it

01:22:41.660 either yeah she

01:22:42.480 said you know

01:22:43.820 people are like yeah

01:22:44.740 that can't be true

01:22:45.560 and it is true and

01:22:48.120 think of that we're

01:22:49.200 what are we doing

01:22:49.900 right now we are

01:22:50.660 talking about pulling

01:22:52.060 down statues because

01:22:55.320 they were for slavery

01:22:56.780 and some of them were

01:22:59.060 saying that they that

01:23:00.500 the founders were bad

01:23:02.500 because they were

01:23:03.320 silent on slavery even

01:23:05.500 though most of them

01:23:06.080 weren't they were

01:23:07.600 silent on slavery and

01:23:09.740 the argument is wait a

01:23:11.060 minute you can't judge

01:23:11.900 them at 250 years

01:23:13.820 ago that slavery was

01:23:15.260 a normal thing back

01:23:16.880 then so they had to

01:23:19.220 be wildly forward

01:23:21.020 thinking to be against

01:23:22.260 it okay how about

01:23:25.080 today we're all

01:23:26.900 clearly against it

01:23:27.840 right we all know

01:23:28.420 slavery is wrong do

01:23:29.860 you know how isis is

01:23:30.700 now funding itself

01:23:31.660 because we we we

01:23:33.460 bombed the the direct

01:23:34.760 route of the oil

01:23:36.100 trade do you know

01:23:37.720 one of the main ways

01:23:38.860 they are funding isis

01:23:40.520 right now the

01:23:41.880 slave trade and

01:23:43.300 even worse kidneys

01:23:46.660 they are kidnapping

01:23:49.760 children and they

01:23:52.480 are cutting the

01:23:53.300 kidneys and the

01:23:54.300 hearts out of them

01:23:55.200 and they are selling

01:23:56.680 them on the black

01:23:57.600 market where the

01:24:00.460 abolition is today

01:24:01.360 seriously where are

01:24:05.080 the abolitionists

01:24:05.700 today this is the

01:24:07.780 hardest this is the

01:24:08.920 hardest thing I

01:24:09.500 watched a a

01:24:11.260 documentary last

01:24:12.180 night and I'm

01:24:12.900 not recommending

01:24:13.540 that you watch

01:24:14.180 it because it's

01:24:17.100 called I am Jane

01:24:17.840 Doe and it's 0.99

01:24:18.580 really it's it's

01:24:19.940 powerful it is

01:24:21.040 powerful but it's

01:24:22.880 all about the slave

01:24:23.580 trade and it's all

01:24:24.280 about it's all about

01:24:25.580 America today and

01:24:27.660 how kids in America

01:24:29.580 are being kidnapped

01:24:30.620 and they are being

01:24:32.560 used in in the sex

01:24:34.700 industry against their

01:24:36.780 will they are being

01:24:37.720 drugged and beaten and

01:24:40.140 they're actually

01:24:41.140 believe it or not the

01:24:42.840 village voice was the

01:24:45.920 main perpetrator of the

01:24:48.180 sales for this okay

01:24:50.940 called their back page

01:24:52.020 oh if they were

01:24:53.240 placing ads for yes and

01:24:55.320 that's still it's still

01:24:57.220 not taking care of it's

01:24:59.100 still not shut down and

01:25:01.180 it is it's remarkable what

01:25:03.760 is going on and I thought

01:25:05.240 to myself I'm I'm

01:25:06.420 watching this I'm

01:25:07.080 thinking nobody's

01:25:07.680 watching this movie

01:25:08.440 nobody is watching

01:25:10.020 this movie because it's

01:25:12.020 too horrific and that

01:25:13.680 is the problem that our

01:25:16.200 founders had back 200

01:25:18.800 and some years ago when

01:25:20.000 they were when they were

01:25:21.380 upset about it and they

01:25:23.060 wanted to stop it

01:25:24.100 Benjamin Franklin was

01:25:25.060 one of the biggest

01:25:25.960 abolitionist if not the

01:25:27.420 biggest abolitionist of the

01:25:28.980 founding error era and

01:25:31.340 he he couldn't get

01:25:34.100 people to listen because

01:25:37.140 what happened it's not

01:25:38.700 affecting me it can't be

01:25:41.160 that bad of a problem

01:25:42.240 because most people didn't

01:25:43.240 have slaves it can't be

01:25:45.240 that much of a problem

01:25:46.340 well they did something to

01:25:49.060 deserve it that's what we

01:25:50.360 think but what did they

01:25:52.640 think well they're not

01:25:53.440 really people like us

01:25:55.220 anything that'll keep you

01:25:57.060 blind and so how do you

01:26:00.500 get that story out and

01:26:02.380 we are facing exactly

01:26:04.080 the same issue on

01:26:06.240 trying to get that

01:26:07.040 story out as our

01:26:08.800 founders did at the

01:26:10.380 the founding of our

01:26:11.620 country and the same

01:26:13.040 issue that Abraham

01:26:14.480 Lincoln did we have at

01:26:17.120 Mercury one a a a

01:26:19.120 letter written by

01:26:20.840 Abraham Lincoln as he

01:26:21.960 is trying to figure out

01:26:23.440 how do I explain to

01:26:25.380 people that slavery is

01:26:26.260 wrong I think of that

01:26:27.900 how do I explain to

01:26:30.120 people that slavery is

01:26:31.400 wrong we now know we

01:26:34.860 know it's wrong and

01:26:37.260 yet we can't bring

01:26:39.200 ourselves to look at it

01:26:40.400 because it is so

01:26:41.460 horrifically ugly but I

01:26:44.960 want you to know if we

01:26:48.000 really want to change

01:26:49.060 things not for us but for

01:26:51.420 our children and

01:26:52.940 grandchildren we cannot

01:26:54.540 miss this opportunity to

01:26:57.380 be an abolitionist now

01:26:58.880 because they're going to

01:27:00.560 look back and say well

01:27:01.720 your parents and your

01:27:03.140 grandparents and your

01:27:03.920 great-great-grandparents

01:27:04.940 they were putting up with

01:27:05.900 this where were they then

01:27:07.940 well they were trying

01:27:09.600 don't be considered an

01:27:14.460 abolitionist in today's

01:27:16.020 world be considered an

01:27:18.100 abolitionist take a strong

01:27:19.740 stand on something that we

01:27:21.200 know is clearly wrong and

01:27:25.320 what you do when you stand

01:27:26.560 up against it is clearly

01:27:28.920 right

01:27:29.480 picture three empty boats

01:27:49.320 floating in a harbor pointed

01:27:51.260 out to sea with 60 kids

01:27:54.580 lined up on the shore

01:27:55.760 waiting to board one by

01:27:58.200 one the kids step down into

01:28:00.040 the boats one little girl

01:28:01.740 wears a hello kitty pajama

01:28:03.820 top and the rest of the

01:28:05.660 kids they seem to be dressed

01:28:07.500 for a party thousands of

01:28:09.820 people passing by see the

01:28:11.200 kids this morning as they make

01:28:12.900 their way through the town but

01:28:15.220 nobody really thought to ask

01:28:17.000 what's happening with all

01:28:18.420 these kids and what party are

01:28:20.380 they going to nobody saw the

01:28:23.440 signs usually the simple act of

01:28:26.280 herding kids through town and

01:28:27.980 unloading them onto a tour boat

01:28:29.900 isn't that impressive but if you

01:28:32.400 have the eyes to see today's

01:28:35.080 journey by boat is a step back in

01:28:37.660 time loaded with meaning these

01:28:42.040 children just like slaves of the 0.98

01:28:44.680 past have been forced to wear a

01:28:47.060 happy face by their captors five

01:28:49.700 traffickers and a cocaine dealer

01:28:52.000 who stood about 20 yards away

01:28:54.540 laughing at the group of rich

01:28:56.980 Americans the scene lacks whips and 1.00

01:29:00.540 shackles of the historic African 1.00

01:29:02.680 coast but make no mistake this is a

01:29:06.020 slave boat the kids here are bought

01:29:09.120 and sold just like they were in the

01:29:11.520 past a simple commodity once the

01:29:16.120 kids strapped on their little life

01:29:17.400 vest and sat down in the boats their

01:29:19.440 captains were instructed by the

01:29:21.020 traffickers to launch the

01:29:22.960 traffickers and their American 1.00

01:29:24.180 buyers follow by speedboat and as it

01:29:27.860 goes the traffickers perhaps in a

01:29:30.080 hurry to get their cash failed to

01:29:32.560 notice the signs of mutiny all around

01:29:35.760 what were those signs four armed

01:29:41.360 Colombian officials dressed as boat

01:29:43.740 captains five Americans snapping

01:29:46.640 cell phone pictures and taking videos

01:29:48.640 like drunk tourists a camera bearing

01:29:51.720 drone circling just a few hundred yards

01:29:54.540 overhead and just out of view three

01:29:58.100 Colombian Navy boats awaiting the

01:30:01.240 signal this is operation underground

01:30:05.160 railroad but the more poignant signs of

01:30:09.880 mutiny were coming from the kids

01:30:11.940 themselves as one slave boat launched an

01:30:15.500 older girl on board huddled the kids 0.90

01:30:17.680 together and prayed God bring us home

01:30:20.540 safe on the second boat a different

01:30:25.360 girl wore a cutoff t-shirt with an image 0.72

01:30:27.720 of Jesus printed on the front a Hail Mary to

01:30:31.560 any man woman or angel with a conscience

01:30:34.180 and courage and today praise God men and

01:30:39.180 angels were listening

01:30:40.480 within 30 minutes of disembarking onto

01:30:45.760 the private island where the kids were

01:30:47.540 preparing to meet their temporary

01:30:49.360 masters while they waited in one section

01:30:52.640 of the house on the other side a deal

01:30:55.340 was being made cash was being exchanged and

01:30:58.840 a signal was being given Colombian Navy

01:31:02.080 captains in raid gear drove their boats

01:31:04.840 right onto the sand and stormed the beach

01:31:07.460 40 kids emancipated the rehabilitation and

01:31:13.080 recovery experts were also there trying to

01:31:16.000 help the kids start that long journey to

01:31:18.560 true freedom but watching their captors

01:31:20.920 march away in handcuffs at gunpoint was a

01:31:24.000 pretty good start as the American undercover

01:31:27.560 operators walked back towards the boats

01:31:29.680 they heard what sounded like laughter at

01:31:32.500 first then they realized the laughter had

01:31:37.760 turned cheers as if to say free at last

01:31:42.380 free at last thank God Almighty I'm free at

01:31:47.340 last

01:33:49.900 welcome to the program so glad that you're here hey there is um

01:33:57.280 there's a couple things we have to keep uh in our prayers the

01:34:00.400 uh people in puerto rico they are they are being devastated right

01:34:06.300 now uh the category four it has washed up on shore it started earlier

01:34:11.340 today um the president has declared that is a disaster area they say

01:34:18.040 that um it will be uninhabitable uninhabitable for um weeks if not

01:34:25.880 months puerto rico is is i mean is already um on the verge of absolute

01:34:34.160 collapse uh so let's keep them in mind also

01:34:38.300 um the last number i heard and there's conflicting numbers but the last number i

01:34:44.280 heard was 240 people have been killed in the earthquake in mexico you know

01:34:50.600 that's going a lot higher a lot higher i mean that's just that you i mean

01:34:54.620 almost immediately they had video of buildings collapsing completely two

01:35:00.180 schools collapsed

01:35:01.020 jeez i just hope you know some of them got out but they were talking about

01:35:05.580 dozens and dozens and dozens of children that they know are missing

01:35:08.880 whether they're alive in the rubble or who knows

01:35:11.680 but is there is there an aftershock coming i mean

01:35:14.500 you know they had an an 8.1 on the southern border of mexico what two weeks

01:35:20.140 ago now a 7.1 uh i believe in 1985 uh that was what was that an was that an

01:35:31.660 eight yeah on the worker scale eight one yeah uh and that killed it was

01:35:35.920 ironically the anniversary the 35th anniversary yesterday of the mexico city

01:35:43.300 earthquake that caused 10 000 people to die and a lot of people had

01:35:49.600 already gone to memorial services to remember their loved ones that had died

01:35:53.180 35 years later uh i mean earlier and then later in the

01:35:56.780 afternoon they're hit with an with a 7.1 it's moments it's

01:36:00.800 seriously like this that you take a moment and thank god for capitalism

01:36:04.940 because the capitalism we've had and our system has brought us enough freedom to

01:36:10.820 to make these disasters when they do hit us must much less damage oh my gosh well

01:36:14.860 look at the difference between mexico city and 85 and now

01:36:17.520 you're listening to the glenn beck program

01:36:30.160 pat gray from pat gray unchained on the blaze radio network that uh begin or unleashed

01:36:37.580 whichever name whatever is on the on your network leashes i had it all i had all of it and and now

01:36:43.700 it's been on all of it's been on you it's all been on yes so uh so pat what is on your mind today

01:36:50.140 uh well i think we're going in the right direction in this country and uh i think you have to agree to

01:36:55.480 agree when a uh when an entire illinois football team of players eight years old and younger

01:37:00.900 takes a knee rather than stand for the national anthem you know that it's going swimmingly where where

01:37:07.840 where where where where did this happen illinois illinois and they were they were eight years old

01:37:12.980 and below yes yeah and they took a knee there's seven and eight year olds uh the coach says one of

01:37:17.900 the kids asked me did i see them protesting and writing in st louis uh the coach said i said yes

01:37:22.980 and do you know why they're doing it player answered because black people are getting killed and nobody's

01:37:27.460 going to jail i mean thank you for knowing that thank you for understanding that all black people are

01:37:32.980 being killed and the people who kill them just then they don't nothing happens to them that's not

01:37:39.400 in fact in some cases they're given awards no it's not really true at all but there's the perception so

01:37:46.680 they he thought it was a great teaching moment and so they talked about colin kaepernick which is

01:37:50.620 interesting because colin kaepernick doesn't know why colin kaepernick is doing what he's doing

01:37:54.720 it's very true uh so he circled up the team they talked about it and they said well can we do that he

01:37:59.680 said sure yeah i you know as long as you know why you're doing it uh i don't have a problem with

01:38:04.300 it with that the whole team of all 25 players turned their back on the flag and took a knee parent

01:38:11.020 decide to have a vigorous conversation with the coach here's the coach's quote kind of along those

01:38:20.240 lines as long as i have the support of my parents and team and i'm covered by the first amendment to

01:38:25.060 peacefully protest and assemble i'm fine with this so apparently nobody nobody complained i mean can

01:38:31.720 you imagine you imagine you're taking your kid to um a uh into a game and you're sitting there in

01:38:40.480 stands and here comes the star spangled banner and all of a sudden you see your kid take a knee i'd go

01:38:46.680 out of my mind i would go out on the field i'd pull out of the game immediately i would too i would

01:38:51.120 go get my kid and i would i would walk out on the field during the national anthem and i would go get

01:38:58.620 my kid and i would pull him up on his feet and say after it was over we're leaving and then we would

01:39:08.580 get into the car and then i would have a discussion later with the coach the hell are you doing who

01:39:14.780 what right do you think you have to teach my children about this country and what we should

01:39:23.000 be doing do you think my you think my six-year-old really had an understanding on the ins and outs

01:39:31.800 of what's happening in st louis you really think so and he's a little league football game the proper

01:39:39.720 forum for that kind of nonsense it's not you know a guy called into the show yesterday and uh i don't

01:39:46.800 even remember what we were talking about at the time but he said pat i you know i appreciate what

01:39:50.880 you're trying to do but it's it's too late just don't uh don't worry about it it's too late for

01:39:55.240 this country and i said you know i just can't go there with you i can't no i'm not gonna i'm not

01:40:00.200 going to adopt that defeatist attitude by the end of the show i'd adopted that attitude he's right

01:40:06.840 you know what i'll throw my hands up it's too late you're done defeated during the show got

01:40:11.380 defeated during the show with one stupid story after another it's pretty hard to believe when

01:40:17.880 you got this coach saying what i teach my kids is love integrity honesty fairness respect boundaries

01:40:22.920 and of course hatred hatred for america i i don't correct any of their misperceptions about what's

01:40:28.680 going on in this country i as long as we're not going to teach our children if we don't teach our

01:40:33.980 children we are done it is too late we we got to get a grip on this and if you don't homeschool your

01:40:41.620 kids you've got to at least supplement what they're what they're hearing when they get home how have to

01:40:48.100 how sitting around the dinner table and discussing what you learned that day and then correcting the

01:40:53.520 misperceptions talking about the news that comes on tv hey when the when your kids say i saw what

01:40:58.800 happened in st louis what's going on there and you can give them the perspective that there are many

01:41:03.020 people who think that that all cops are racist they're not sometimes they make terrible mistakes

01:41:08.420 and sometimes they are racist sometimes they are sometimes they might be racist but in the vast

01:41:12.520 majority of cases they're not and and the vast majority of these cops have been exonerated from

01:41:18.300 any wrongdoing and i know people don't like that and they don't like to hear it but there's also people

01:41:23.060 who are doing hands up don't shoot when that never happened in ferguson yeah i mean plus talking to a

01:41:28.500 six-year-old you're not even in the position to explain racism in in proper terms they can't even

01:41:33.520 just the i mean that's why they had the star-bellied sneetches from dr seuss like he's trying to explain

01:41:41.500 racism and he's got to put stars on the belly of sneetches to explain that concept this is you're

01:41:46.520 saying the concept of racism then you're trying to dissect you know national events and and misleading

01:41:52.360 these kids in in massive ways it is so clear now that you have small children star-bellied sneetches

01:41:57.920 there's no way 10 years ago you could have made a reference to star-bellied sneetches you're exactly

01:42:03.160 right you're exactly right so true you would have mocked us yes you would have mocked us and now we're

01:42:09.040 sitting here going uh-huh yeah wait until they become teenagers you're praying for the star-bellied

01:42:15.140 sneetches to come and kill you i don't think they were violent creatures no they were they were yeah 0.99

01:42:21.680 uh seuss he covered all that up yeah he covered it all up yeah there was a horrible bloodbath yeah

01:42:27.500 wait i thought it was they all came together and understood that it's okay if one has a star in

01:42:31.760 their belly and one does not it doesn't matter those are just differences and we can all come together

01:42:35.360 hands up don't sneetch that's that's that was completely erased yeah and then they were all

01:42:41.520 decapitated yeah so and it turns into like a really like a who to and tootsie situation where

01:42:46.740 they all start killing each other millions dead i'm glad i didn't get to that chapter in fact the

01:42:52.520 who to and titsies actually follow the playbook of star-bellied sneetches yeah i just want you to

01:42:59.000 listen to that that's where that came from i just want you to listen to that imagine that you had no

01:43:02.300 idea who dr seuss was uh and but you did know who the who tos and the sneetches or the who tos and

01:43:08.240 the tootsies were you would be worried right now about the star-bellied sneetches that's true

01:43:13.620 they kind of sound yeah it's a little scary i i would be infuriated by that though because i mean

01:43:20.020 i just had a a meeting speaking of having little kids i had a uh a basketball coach meeting last

01:43:24.880 night where i had to go and like learn how to not i guess i think that i would say the main thrust of

01:43:30.160 the meeting was don't punch the kids in the face if they miss a shot like they just want to make

01:43:34.460 sure that you're not the crazy parent who's going to go nuts on the sidelines and and become this

01:43:40.720 competitive pat riley so wait wait so you you're going to be coaching yes i'd be coaching the the

01:43:46.640 basketball and again like it's i mean i'd already do the baseball thing uh and we're starting the

01:43:51.040 basketball thing but that's i would say the thrust of the meeting is not necessarily like anything about

01:43:54.800 the coaching it's about like hey don't be a lunatic parent who thinks this is the final four it's not

01:43:59.320 okay um however they didn't i remember going through this with uh my daughter uh when she

01:44:06.220 was young at uh uh in connecticut at a t-ball game and they didn't give that uh that that speech to

01:44:17.100 the parents and the parents were arguing at a t-ball game yeah the t-ball and where they probably

01:44:25.420 didn't even keep score uh no they did they did everyone continued to hit the t-ball everyone

01:44:32.400 was not you were not allowed to grab the ball and tag them out so everyone hit the ball ran around

01:44:40.060 everyone got home it was tied eight to eight it was a home run every time it was a home run every

01:44:46.380 time tied eight to eight and there were parents that actually were arguing about it and i turned around

01:44:53.920 and went it's going to be eight to eight that is true because i did the baseball thing last year

01:45:01.980 and there's you start just counting in your head at least the outs because every once in a while the

01:45:07.820 ball gets close enough to the base and the kid actually picks it up or throws it somewhat near the

01:45:11.720 other kid yeah and and the guy running to first base trips and you get an out and it's like basically

01:45:17.120 winning the world series oh the stands empty yeah they tear down the fencing yeah it's a big moment

01:45:23.940 gatorade baths come right but i mean i think honestly there is no circumstance that i can

01:45:29.940 imagine losing my mind as a parent for a little league kid except the one you just described pat i

01:45:35.420 would lose my mind on that not on the kid obviously for sure uh but i mean i'm a coach afterwards and i

01:45:41.400 would i wouldn't lose my mind on the kid but i would have there would be a harsh talking to on that

01:45:45.120 one i you know what i i i don't think i would take it out on my child there would be a there would

01:45:52.380 be a discussion on um i understand i i understand you thought you were doing good um but that's a

01:46:00.980 really complex thing i mean if you come down on your kids when they think they're doing good and

01:46:07.380 they've been told by an adult that they're doing good they're gonna have to decide eventually who do

01:46:12.840 they believe mom and dad or my fun coach over here you know and as they grow they're gonna start

01:46:19.980 thinking so you you wouldn't want to come down on your kid at all um you would want to correct it

01:46:25.300 but if they're six or seven years old they have no idea what they're doing none it's the one the one

01:46:30.640 that's responsible is the coach and i can't believe i can't believe that in america today that could

01:46:38.780 happen and there isn't a single parent on that little league team on either side that isn't in

01:46:46.460 front of a camera saying this is outrageous i pulled my kid out it shows you how out of favor

01:46:53.880 conservative principles are no no no nobody has them stop nobody has them stop conservative

01:46:58.820 american yeah principles that's right not conservative anymore this is how out of step

01:47:05.200 anyone who actually believes in america how out of step you actually are

01:47:10.480 now if you don't hate america you can listen to pat gray unleashed or watch it on the blaze

01:47:20.080 television and radio networks and if you don't do it i'll find you if you find you if you don't

01:47:24.520 hate america listen to him if you do hate america watch him right one of whatever whichever one

01:47:30.100 and see uh the fabulous path he will take today to be completely defeated and give up on america

01:47:35.640 that's all coming up on pat gray unleashed after this program on blaze radio and tv

01:47:39.880 as a gun owner education is the top priority a concealed carry uh permit uh allows you to do a lot of

01:47:53.240 but the moment you pull out that gun it's a different world who is protecting you do you guys

01:48:01.640 remember when when we went to philadelphia and we took the classes and we all had to you know take the

01:48:07.800 safety course classes and learn to shoot the guns oh yeah remember that and remember the conversation

01:48:13.420 that they had on look if you're ever going to pull out your gun here are the rules here are the

01:48:18.660 restrictions here's what you want to make sure and you we were all afraid like i'm not going to pull

01:48:23.720 my gun i mean i don't i don't want to pull my gun because it was so there were certain things you had

01:48:30.480 to do otherwise your life is over and people who go through that training are the usually the least

01:48:37.460 likely to pull out their gun in some crazy circumstance because they're the most responsible

01:48:41.620 and in some cases in some states there's a law that you must try to retreat first you have to run

01:48:46.700 away before you can then defend yourself it doesn't even make sense in some places just unbelievable

01:48:52.460 uh here in texas uh thank god that's not the case but pretty much everywhere else you're in trouble and

01:48:59.680 even in texas you you have to pull your gun on somebody god forbid you have to shoot you are in

01:49:04.540 you're in trouble the u.s concealed carry association knows this and they would like to send you their free

01:49:11.140 family defense guide now this is really important it covers everything all the safety stuff

01:49:16.580 all of the um all of the things like you know how can you uh you know see trouble coming how can

01:49:23.060 you detect detectors before they see you i can't believe that we have to have a handbook but you

01:49:28.620 should have this handbook in your house on um uh how what do you do in case of a mass shooting

01:49:34.580 hey i mean i just i don't understand this world but that's part of it now the the critical thing is

01:49:43.400 beyond the 165 pages um that you can either read or you can listen to it on their bonus audio version

01:49:49.960 um they give you the checklist that you should have if you own a gun and you want to protect yourself

01:49:57.500 but to me the most important thing is that you look into their insurance because you we have health

01:50:04.820 insurance we have life insurance we have fire insurance we have car insurance we have some people

01:50:11.440 have flood insurance i mean we have insurance for everything but this but the moment you pull

01:50:17.220 your gun you're going to need it because somebody the bad guys this time wearing a suit and carrying

01:50:23.040 a briefcase and calling themselves attorneys are coming for you protect and defend.com the people

01:51:14.160 doing something that i think you're really going to like um all chalkboard based um but i i think in a way

01:51:20.540 when we get it all said and done hopefully it's in a way that you've you've not seen before and and um

01:51:26.000 really explaining the basic things uh uh in a in a very clear and simple way kind of the stuff that

01:51:34.420 you know we're trying to go back to the basics the things that we know that we do well and the things

01:51:38.240 that we that we know that you could use um but we were this week we've been showing you behind the

01:51:45.940 scenes and it's it's really quite last night last night show i was watching it last night and

01:51:51.680 it was a little uncomfortable at times uh because it was really it's i mean it is you know reality

01:51:58.920 television it was raw and honest yeah last night was you know as we're building up to the new stuff

01:52:03.700 this was sort of like a behind the scenes episode where you're going through and talking about how

01:52:13.640 jones about their shows that uh they're working on now uh and you know it was kind of in the

01:52:19.560 meetings and dissecting every little bit of their performance and every idea that they had it was

01:52:26.200 there was a time where it was like you saw me and how i critique people yeah um you're a jerk 0.85

01:52:31.800 which is interesting i don't think people knew that until last night well i mean it is i mean you did

01:52:37.340 kind of cut out the spirit of it i mean i did say i noticed that there was cut out a lot of the stuff

01:52:42.360 that like you're on it i didn't have that conversation with them you know at the beginning that's when i

01:52:47.220 thought that they were all i guess that makes it worse yeah actually i i i thought i made you look

01:52:53.020 a lot better than in real life uh this is the truth did not live here in that episode because

01:52:58.740 i edited out you being a real jerk and just made you kind of a jerk yeah because that was really as 0.86
