00:00:00.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:00:02.100 Well, hello, America, and hello, Ohio.
00:00:05.280 We are thinking of you today.
00:00:07.420 There's some bad, bad storms that happened last night,
00:00:11.760 and we'll get into that and how you can help the people of Ohio
00:00:14.880 coming up in just a second.
00:00:17.400 We also, I've been on vacation for about 10, 12 days,
00:00:21.140 and I was watching things that I think nobody else was watching.
00:00:24.280 I was watching the elections in Europe,
00:00:27.140 and I'll explain what's happening around the world
00:00:30.860 and how it is going to affect us.
00:00:33.180 And it's actually, I think, I think it's really kind of good news.
00:00:37.120 Also, the president says we need to go to Mars.
00:00:40.880 He says it's the most important security thing that we can do.
00:00:44.840 I think Baltimore might disagree with that.
00:00:47.740 We'll talk to you about what's happening in Baltimore
00:00:50.440 and the perfect story to start a Monday.
00:00:55.160 Yeah, I know, it's Tuesday.
00:00:56.360 It's Tuesday, but it feels like a Monday.
00:00:59.120 So if you're thinking like, oh, I just,
00:01:01.780 you think you might be facing a bad day, relax.
00:01:05.260 I've got the ultimate Monday story.
00:01:08.360 Somebody who really had a bad day.
00:01:11.800 We begin there next.
00:01:15.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:18.460 All right, what's the first thing that you do
00:01:19.920 when you get into a new car or into your car?
00:01:22.240 You adjust the seat, right?
00:01:23.140 Well, who was sitting in my chair last week?
00:01:27.680 Who was sitting in my chair?
00:01:29.260 It would be your friend, Pat Gray.
00:01:32.060 Pat Gray.
00:01:32.800 I spent about 20 minutes trying to readjust my chair
00:01:35.900 because he took my chair and adjusted it six ways to Sunday.
00:01:39.840 I came in here and I'm like, what happened to my chair?
00:01:45.680 He adjusted it in ways I didn't even know you could adjust it.
00:01:48.960 But anyway, this chair is the best X chair.
00:01:53.320 It does adjust a million different ways
00:01:57.800 to give you the perfect support that you need
00:02:01.400 for either your home or work.
00:02:03.180 We spend more time in our office chair than we do in bed,
00:02:06.420 which says something about us, really, doesn't it?
00:02:09.260 That we're either sitting or sleeping most of our life.
00:02:12.860 We are going to turn into those people like in,
00:02:16.300 what was it, Wally?
00:02:17.220 No, it wasn't Wally.
00:02:18.140 It was Wally.
00:02:19.700 It was Wally.
00:02:20.580 We're the really fat.
00:02:21.700 Yeah.
00:02:22.560 Yeah.
00:02:23.140 It's one of those futures.
00:02:24.560 I wish a candidate would come out and say,
00:02:25.920 the future is Wally.
00:02:27.260 Then I'd vote for that person.
00:02:28.460 Right.
00:02:28.780 Because that sounds great.
00:02:29.520 We're all just going to be sitting around.
00:02:30.680 Sitting around, just gaining weight.
00:02:32.340 Yeah.
00:02:32.920 I mean, it's not much different than my current life.
00:02:35.380 It really isn't.
00:02:36.600 A little more technology involved.
00:02:37.920 Yeah.
00:02:38.300 Yeah.
00:02:39.000 Anyway, X chair.
00:02:40.980 For those who feel like they're living the life of Wally,
00:02:44.740 but you need a really comfortable chair.
00:02:47.060 That's the best chair you'll ever sit in.
00:02:48.400 It's 844-4X-CHAIR, 844-4X-CHAIR, or XChairBeck.com.
00:02:54.960 A felon from Washington State made a series of mistakes
00:03:09.700 when he shot himself in the testicles
00:03:12.460 and tried to hide the weapon,
00:03:15.520 all while storing drugs in his butt.
00:03:20.280 Cameron Wilfrey Wilson, 27,
00:03:23.200 was carrying a pistol in his front pocket
00:03:25.520 while in Kashmir, Washington.
00:03:28.060 He was in an apartment on April 5th
00:03:30.700 when the firearm accidentally discharged
00:03:34.080 and blew off one of his testicles.
00:03:37.780 Wilson, who is a 13...
00:03:41.000 It hurt to say that, Stu?
00:03:42.260 It did.
00:03:42.800 I could feel the pain.
00:03:44.100 Yeah.
00:03:44.560 Wilson, who is a 13-time convicted felon,
00:03:49.360 told his girlfriend to dispose of the weapon
00:03:51.760 before heading to the hospital.
00:03:54.280 When the ex-con finally went to the hospital...
00:03:57.120 Now, wait.
00:03:57.640 Hang on just a second.
00:03:58.620 Let me stop there.
00:03:59.520 Stu, why do you suppose
00:04:00.820 he wanted that weapon disposed of?
00:04:06.860 Being a 13-time felon.
00:04:09.620 There may be some criminal concerns there.
00:04:11.540 Right?
00:04:12.020 Like he doesn't have a right to own a gun.
00:04:14.280 Right.
00:04:14.860 And he also had already kind of disposed
00:04:17.300 of his own weapon.
00:04:18.200 Yeah.
00:04:18.640 Right.
00:04:19.580 This is not a good day.
00:04:20.660 So when he went to the hospital,
00:04:22.820 a balloon of drugs,
00:04:26.860 and I'm just...
00:04:27.980 slipped out of his anus.
00:04:30.820 While he was being operated on by the doctor.
00:04:33.900 Now, I don't know how it just slipped out of his anus,
00:04:36.940 but apparently it did.
00:04:38.860 Cops arrived at the hospital
00:04:40.360 when alerted of the gunshot wound.
00:04:42.480 They searched his car
00:04:43.800 where they discovered a bag of meth
00:04:45.800 in the bloodstained jeans
00:04:47.860 that he was wearing
00:04:48.700 when he shot himself to death.
00:04:50.160 There are so many things
00:04:51.920 that this guy's going to jail on.
00:04:54.120 They say men can't multitask.
00:04:55.840 No.
00:04:56.220 Here we go.
00:04:56.680 This is a really good...
00:04:59.020 As he was being processed,
00:05:00.820 at the County Regional Justice Center,
00:05:04.380 Wilson was strip searched
00:05:05.660 and another balloon of marijuana
00:05:08.040 was found.
00:05:09.180 How much?
00:05:10.060 No, I can't say it was found.
00:05:12.460 Let me quote the story.
00:05:13.660 Another balloon of marijuana
00:05:15.000 slipped from his anus.
00:05:17.800 While in jail,
00:05:18.980 he made a number of calls
00:05:20.240 to his girlfriend
00:05:20.980 and asked her not to cooperate
00:05:22.620 with investigators.
00:05:24.240 Another crime.
00:05:25.420 That is the worst.
00:05:29.340 The convicted felon
00:05:30.260 was charged with possession
00:05:31.400 of a firearm,
00:05:32.940 unlawful possession of meth,
00:05:35.480 possession of a controlled substance
00:05:37.200 in a correctional facility,
00:05:38.800 and four counts of tampering
00:05:40.120 with a witness.
00:05:41.080 Oh, wait a minute.
00:05:41.760 That's that.
00:05:42.360 I got to take issue
00:05:43.320 with the possession
00:05:44.380 in a...
00:05:45.420 What was it?
00:05:45.820 In a correctional facility?
00:05:47.120 I mean...
00:05:47.480 Yeah, that was a mistake.
00:05:48.800 Come on.
00:05:49.620 He had it in there long before.
00:05:51.200 Yeah, I mean,
00:05:51.940 Your Honor,
00:05:52.980 I was free
00:05:53.640 when I put that in my butt.
00:05:54.960 Yes.
00:05:55.620 I think that's a legitimate defense.
00:05:57.380 I think so, too.
00:05:58.360 There's got to be an attorney
00:05:58.940 who will take that one out.
00:05:59.820 Yeah, I think so.
00:06:00.780 I mean,
00:06:01.040 we can cut him some slack
00:06:02.300 on that one.
00:06:03.100 That's pro bono material, too.
00:06:04.720 I mean, that's just...
00:06:06.560 Wow.
00:06:08.100 You just...
00:06:08.940 You really have to...
00:06:10.180 At some point,
00:06:11.340 it's like...
00:06:11.880 You know,
00:06:12.160 it's like those people
00:06:13.100 that, you know,
00:06:14.100 go on, you know,
00:06:15.400 American Idol,
00:06:16.620 that somebody in their life
00:06:18.040 didn't just say to them,
00:06:19.460 you really suck at singing.
00:06:21.560 Somebody in his life
00:06:22.700 needed to say,
00:06:23.480 you're really not a good criminal.
00:06:25.620 I know you want to be a criminal,
00:06:27.620 but you're really a bad criminal.
00:06:29.800 And it is one of those things
00:06:30.600 like criminal life is...
00:06:32.660 You only really get into it
00:06:34.020 if you're good at it.
00:06:34.840 Right.
00:06:35.240 In theory, right?
00:06:36.120 I mean, like,
00:06:36.360 what's the point?
00:06:37.320 Well, you're only 13 times
00:06:38.380 you start to think to yourself,
00:06:40.220 I should apply my time
00:06:42.640 to something else.
00:06:44.000 Like, I should apply to, like,
00:06:45.520 a job and use...
00:06:47.260 Right.
00:06:47.300 Because there's plenty
00:06:48.440 of incompetent people
00:06:49.620 in regular life
00:06:50.720 that hold jobs down.
00:06:52.160 You could work
00:06:52.620 for the federal government.
00:06:53.640 Yeah.
00:06:54.020 You could run for office.
00:06:55.340 You'll never go to jail.
00:06:58.140 That's how you do it.
00:06:58.880 You could have anything
00:06:59.600 coming from your anus
00:07:00.620 and you're fine.
00:07:02.220 Yeah.
00:07:02.480 And you have, like,
00:07:03.040 a legitimate...
00:07:03.740 Like, you're above the law
00:07:04.680 in some of these circumstances.
00:07:05.700 Remember when Harry Reid
00:07:06.800 went on the Senate floor
00:07:07.840 and he was like,
00:07:09.220 look, you know,
00:07:11.020 Mitt Romney didn't pay his taxes.
00:07:13.020 He didn't pay his taxes,
00:07:13.740 just blatantly lying
00:07:14.840 with no evidence.
00:07:16.760 And later admitted it.
00:07:17.720 And later admitted it.
00:07:18.540 But he was on the Senate floor
00:07:19.560 so you can't really
00:07:20.140 do anything about him.
00:07:20.860 I mean, if something
00:07:21.540 were to slip out
00:07:22.400 when you were giving a speech
00:07:24.440 on the Senate floor,
00:07:25.100 I think you're exempt
00:07:25.840 from any crime.
00:07:26.640 I think a 10-pound bag
00:07:27.980 just slipped out of his butt
00:07:29.620 while he...
00:07:30.340 I was giving a speech.
00:07:31.840 I was giving a speech.
00:07:32.860 I was on the floor
00:07:33.400 of the Senate.
00:07:33.940 I'm fine.
00:07:35.240 This would encourage
00:07:36.080 some really interesting individuals
00:07:37.960 to get into politics.
00:07:38.660 It would.
00:07:39.060 I think that's where we...
00:07:40.420 I think that's where
00:07:41.440 we need to go.
00:07:42.180 So, if you were having
00:07:43.360 a bad day,
00:07:45.280 just realize,
00:07:47.240 most likely,
00:07:48.300 I was going to say nothing,
00:07:49.720 but most likely,
00:07:50.860 nothing is going to slip
00:07:51.980 from your anus today.
00:07:53.660 And you don't have to
00:07:55.200 tell your girlfriend
00:07:55.760 to hide a gun.
00:07:56.800 You're fine.
00:07:57.760 You're fine.
00:07:58.360 Today's a good day for you.
00:08:00.200 All right.
00:08:01.000 Relief factor.
00:08:03.320 In America,
00:08:04.580 50 million people
00:08:05.720 miss work due to pain.
00:08:07.120 Of these Americans,
00:08:10.220 they spend about $2,000
00:08:11.780 to combat their pain
00:08:13.140 and 66%
00:08:14.580 to expect to live
00:08:15.460 the rest of their life
00:08:16.540 with some pain.
00:08:17.960 I have to tell you,
00:08:19.120 I just got back
00:08:20.680 from vacation.
00:08:21.680 We were up at the ranch
00:08:22.960 and we were fixing fences.
00:08:25.700 By the way,
00:08:26.120 remind me to talk to you
00:08:26.980 about mending fences
00:08:27.840 because I thought a lot about.
00:08:29.480 It's amazing
00:08:30.280 when you are up
00:08:31.160 on a farm,
00:08:33.660 you're just out
00:08:34.640 in the middle of nowhere
00:08:35.520 and you are just
00:08:37.020 raising animals,
00:08:38.480 how much things
00:08:40.740 begin to just make sense
00:08:41.960 to you.
00:08:43.920 A, hard work
00:08:45.340 pays off.
00:08:47.480 There's nothing
00:08:48.300 that can replace hard work.
00:08:49.700 I want to talk
00:08:50.380 a little bit about that today.
00:08:51.680 And what was the thing
00:08:52.520 I just told you
00:08:53.060 to remind me of?
00:08:55.040 Mending fences.
00:08:56.080 Mending fences.
00:08:57.160 Remind me of that.
00:08:58.940 But we were out
00:08:59.900 and we were stringing fence
00:09:01.860 and barbed wire
00:09:04.020 and electric fence
00:09:04.940 and it was,
00:09:05.700 we're trying to keep
00:09:06.340 Stu off the property.
00:09:08.940 And I'm not going
00:09:10.560 to complain about pain
00:09:11.580 ever again.
00:09:12.820 Well, yes, I will.
00:09:13.800 But not today
00:09:14.700 because I'll remember
00:09:15.880 all the people
00:09:16.580 that are doing this
00:09:18.320 every single day
00:09:20.080 and they walk around
00:09:21.680 like, you know,
00:09:22.580 their eye hanging out
00:09:23.860 and they're just like,
00:09:24.480 yeah, I just,
00:09:25.660 I just snagged my eye
00:09:27.180 on some wire.
00:09:28.100 I just pop it back in.
00:09:29.420 They just keep going.
00:09:31.020 They just keep going.
00:09:32.440 How many Americans
00:09:33.240 are there?
00:09:33.880 We look at these
00:09:34.700 Americans that are living
00:09:36.280 in the cities
00:09:36.900 and we're like,
00:09:37.260 where are the tough Americans?
00:09:38.280 The tough Americans
00:09:39.280 are still out there.
00:09:40.940 The tough Americans
00:09:41.660 are still going,
00:09:42.540 yeah, no.
00:09:43.620 Yeah, I dislocated
00:09:44.760 my shoulder.
00:09:45.860 I just,
00:09:46.240 I just kind of leaned up
00:09:48.580 against the tree
00:09:49.200 and popped it back.
00:09:50.060 I'm good.
00:09:50.480 If you're somebody
00:09:53.240 that has reason
00:09:54.740 to live in pain,

00:10:18.300 Station ID.
00:10:18.860 So I saw a,
00:10:36.520 I saw a story
00:10:38.440 in the Huffington Post
00:10:40.100 about pro-Trump drawings.
00:10:47.400 Are pro-Trump drawings art?
00:10:51.380 This, it drove me out of my mind.
00:10:54.580 They take,
00:10:55.580 President Donald Trump
00:10:56.960 has inspired a range
00:10:58.760 of famous artists
00:10:59.540 across different mediums
00:11:01.180 to create works
00:11:01.960 criticizing his administration
00:11:03.400 and make a statement
00:11:04.280 about his place in culture.
00:11:06.220 But there's also
00:11:07.160 a lesser known group
00:11:08.600 of amateur
00:11:09.320 and professional artists
00:11:11.040 who laud the president
00:11:12.680 and depict him
00:11:13.520 as a strong,
00:11:14.240 sometimes superhuman leader.
00:11:17.160 Largely rejected
00:11:18.340 from the established
00:11:19.620 art venues,
00:11:20.820 these pro-Trump images
00:11:22.440 proliferate on social media
00:11:24.600 and have staked out
00:11:26.240 a place as the Trump administration's
00:11:28.140 unofficial iconography.
00:11:32.060 Okay.
00:11:33.260 So the premise
00:11:34.640 of this article is
00:11:36.140 if you don't like Trump,
00:11:38.960 you're a respected artist.
00:11:40.800 But if you do like Trump,
00:11:43.240 you're not really an artist.
00:11:44.540 You're not doing art,
00:11:45.580 you're doing drawings.
00:11:47.400 You're an amateur drawer.
00:11:48.780 Okay, that's what you are.
00:11:50.540 A few months ago,
00:11:51.200 we assembled a group
00:11:52.000 of editors and reporters
00:11:53.140 from our culture
00:11:54.040 and politics team,
00:11:55.580 some who are no longer
00:11:56.660 with the company.
00:11:58.020 I love that.
00:11:58.800 Why?
00:11:59.280 Why are they not
00:12:00.020 with the company?
00:12:00.740 We executed them.
00:12:01.660 They actually,
00:12:03.140 they said Trump's stuff
00:12:03.960 was good,
00:12:04.560 so they're no longer
00:12:05.700 with the company.
00:12:06.100 No longer with us.
00:12:06.760 Or the earth.
00:12:07.540 They're no longer here.
00:12:08.440 Right.
00:12:09.020 To discuss the pro-Trump art.
00:12:12.080 So they go through
00:12:13.960 these artists
00:12:15.600 and some of them are good,
00:12:18.420 some of them are bad,
00:12:20.960 but, you know,
00:12:22.440 like John McNaughton,
00:12:24.000 you know who John McNaughton is,
00:12:25.280 right?
00:12:25.420 Yeah, yeah.
00:12:25.940 John McNaughton
00:12:26.700 is a real artist
00:12:28.080 and has done
00:12:29.340 some really amazing
00:12:31.180 religious paintings
00:12:32.520 and everything else.
00:12:33.540 He's the guy
00:12:34.480 who most conservatives
00:12:36.380 will know
00:12:37.260 because he did
00:12:39.520 the painting of,
00:12:40.660 I think it was
00:12:41.440 Obama,
00:12:43.400 wasn't he standing
00:12:44.180 on the Constitution
00:12:45.360 and the founders
00:12:47.100 were behind him
00:12:48.360 weeping
00:12:49.060 and he did a lot
00:12:51.720 of different
00:12:52.460 political art,
00:12:53.660 but it's real art.
00:12:55.300 I mean,
00:12:55.440 it's beautiful art.
00:12:56.820 He did something
00:12:57.460 for the Underground Railroad
00:12:59.580 as a fundraiser.
00:13:01.640 He's done,
00:13:02.620 he's done a lot of,
00:13:03.840 a lot of famous,
00:13:05.220 famous art
00:13:06.060 if you're on the right,
00:13:07.420 but he never gets
00:13:08.780 any credit
00:13:09.400 because he's on the right.
00:13:13.740 This whole thing
00:13:15.080 is where they talk
00:13:17.060 about the pro-Trump art.
00:13:19.860 It's just propaganda.
00:13:21.320 It's not art.
00:13:24.240 Really?
00:13:24.880 Because do you remember
00:13:26.920 the Hope poster?
00:13:29.100 That's now hanging
00:13:30.600 in which museum?
00:13:33.200 In Los Angeles?
00:13:34.980 One of the big museums
00:13:36.560 is now hanging his work.
00:13:39.380 Now,
00:13:39.840 that truly was propaganda.
00:13:43.780 That was released
00:13:45.600 as street art,
00:13:47.720 if I'm not mistaken,
00:13:48.840 at first.
00:13:49.440 And it was
00:13:51.920 used
00:13:52.720 as propaganda.
00:13:53.980 It was
00:13:54.760 based
00:13:55.460 on propaganda.
00:13:58.380 And,
00:13:58.940 and that one's art.
00:14:00.240 But anything that,
00:14:01.560 anything that
00:14:02.360 makes
00:14:03.220 Trump
00:14:04.320 look good
00:14:05.760 is just
00:14:06.920 a drawing.
00:14:09.560 Yeah,
00:14:10.100 I mean,
00:14:10.320 it's
00:14:10.860 not surprising,
00:14:12.760 of course.
00:14:13.260 Now,
00:14:13.500 you as the 100th
00:14:14.480 most important man
00:14:15.520 in the world of art
00:14:16.420 as named by
00:14:17.260 some really highfalutin
00:14:18.680 art magazine.
00:14:19.140 I don't even remember
00:14:19.880 it's so highfalutin,
00:14:20.880 I don't even remember
00:14:21.440 which magazine it was.
00:14:22.420 That's actually
00:14:22.840 legitimately happened.
00:14:23.800 It really did.
00:14:24.580 Because you had
00:14:25.360 correctly talked about
00:14:27.420 the art at Rockefeller Center
00:14:29.120 and,
00:14:30.040 and they
00:14:31.020 wanted to demean you
00:14:32.740 and mock you
00:14:33.340 by putting you as 100th.
00:14:34.260 You actually were 100th,
00:14:35.380 though.
00:14:35.720 Yes, I was.
00:14:36.400 Was the most important
00:14:37.080 man of art.
00:14:37.680 As someone who knows
00:14:38.640 that, though,
00:14:39.200 I mean,
00:14:39.380 we all know,
00:14:40.220 you obviously know
00:14:41.080 what this world is,
00:14:42.020 right?
00:14:42.160 Like,
00:14:42.360 it's just a world
00:14:43.660 to promote
00:14:44.560 the hard left.
00:14:46.620 You know,
00:14:46.780 the idea of political
00:14:47.980 art at this point,
00:14:49.000 the reason why
00:14:50.140 you know,
00:14:51.260 you can name a few
00:14:52.240 of the conservative
00:14:53.000 artists
00:14:53.640 is because
00:14:54.620 they're so rare.
00:14:57.060 Right.
00:14:57.160 Like,
00:14:57.380 you can just be,
00:14:58.600 it's like,
00:14:58.900 you know the story
00:14:59.580 because it's a story,
00:15:01.340 you know,
00:15:01.780 the rarity makes it.
00:15:02.920 Yes, Sabo,
00:15:03.180 exactly.
00:15:03.720 Like,
00:15:03.960 when he comes out
00:15:04.580 and he does one of
00:15:05.080 his great posters
00:15:06.300 and they show up
00:15:07.300 at,
00:15:07.600 you know,
00:15:07.780 whenever there's
00:15:08.220 a big democratic event
00:15:09.340 somewhere,
00:15:10.400 you know about it
00:15:11.620 and it's a big story
00:15:12.360 because of the fact
00:15:13.560 that it's so rare
00:15:15.060 that someone actually
00:15:15.980 takes that stand.
00:15:17.480 I mean,
00:15:17.620 there's a lot of people
00:15:18.260 who are conservative
00:15:18.980 artists that just,
00:15:19.740 you know,
00:15:20.500 they don't get into
00:15:21.100 that world.
00:15:21.760 Like,
00:15:21.900 we've met a bunch
00:15:22.620 of people who
00:15:23.220 are real artists
00:15:24.420 and known for their art.
00:15:26.080 However,
00:15:26.460 they don't come out
00:15:27.200 and state their
00:15:28.020 political views.
00:15:28.980 No,
00:15:29.260 I know one of my
00:15:30.800 favorite artists
00:15:31.420 who shall not be named
00:15:32.580 and kind of
00:15:35.860 at a request of him,
00:15:37.320 please don't,
00:15:38.120 please don't ever,
00:15:39.040 please don't.
00:15:40.340 He's a big fan.
00:15:41.400 He listens every day.
00:15:42.600 He paints most
00:15:43.500 of his stuff
00:15:44.180 and it goes for
00:15:45.840 hundreds of thousands.
00:15:47.480 I can't afford
00:15:48.360 one of his paintings.
00:15:49.200 I want one of his paintings
00:15:50.620 really badly.
00:15:52.180 One of my favorite artists.
00:15:54.080 He sells for thousands
00:15:56.900 and thousands of dollars.
00:15:58.540 He's a huge fan.
00:16:00.840 He sells a lot of stuff
00:16:02.420 to most of his stuff
00:16:04.540 to the left,
00:16:05.780 to the hardcore left.
00:16:08.020 And they have absolutely
00:16:09.740 no idea.
00:16:10.540 And his paintings
00:16:12.000 are very American.
00:16:14.060 I love them because
00:16:14.920 it's,
00:16:15.520 do you know who I'm
00:16:15.920 talking about,
00:16:16.480 Stu?
00:16:16.900 They're very American,
00:16:18.280 but not red,
00:16:19.160 white,
00:16:19.300 and blue America.
00:16:20.700 They're very,
00:16:21.920 they're subtle
00:16:23.140 in their America.
00:16:24.380 You know,
00:16:24.900 when you think of
00:16:25.740 American painters,
00:16:27.160 you think of the eagle,
00:16:28.820 you know,
00:16:29.180 and the flag
00:16:29.960 and a soldier
00:16:30.920 and a jet
00:16:31.840 flying someplace.
00:16:32.700 Not that.
00:16:34.280 He does this
00:16:35.140 beautiful,
00:16:35.900 beautiful art,
00:16:36.740 but he can't be known.
00:16:38.760 He's like,
00:16:39.240 I'm doomed.
00:16:40.640 If it ever comes out,
00:16:41.920 I'm doomed.
00:16:43.100 He's in museums
00:16:44.100 and everything else,
00:16:44.800 and he's had to live
00:16:46.200 in hiding.
00:16:48.520 That is horrible.
00:16:51.320 Absolutely horrible.
00:16:53.220 But if you go to museums,
00:16:55.260 what you're seeing is,
00:16:56.780 I mean,
00:16:56.980 come on.
00:16:57.940 When I went,
00:16:58.920 they took down
00:16:59.740 the painting
00:17:00.800 of Washington
00:17:01.680 crossing the Delaware
00:17:02.720 one year
00:17:04.700 in the Metropolitan
00:17:06.160 Museum of Art,
00:17:07.100 and I went there
00:17:07.920 specifically
00:17:08.520 to take my kids
00:17:09.500 through the art museum,
00:17:10.440 and one of the things
00:17:11.240 I wanted to show them
00:17:12.000 was that.
00:17:13.040 But I also went
00:17:14.440 through all of their,
00:17:15.360 you know,
00:17:15.720 modern art
00:17:16.300 and everything else.
00:17:17.020 I'm a fan of art,
00:17:17.880 and we got to,
00:17:19.880 we got to where
00:17:21.100 the painting
00:17:21.860 was supposed to be,
00:17:22.900 and they're like,
00:17:23.540 oh yeah,
00:17:23.800 it's in a warehouse.
00:17:25.060 But you know what
00:17:25.740 wasn't in a warehouse?
00:17:27.400 A bigger painting,
00:17:28.820 and if you've ever seen
00:17:29.600 Washington crossing
00:17:30.380 the Delaware,
00:17:31.060 it's like 20 feet
00:17:32.260 by, I don't know,
00:17:33.280 15.
00:17:33.780 It's a gigantic painting.
00:17:36.120 What wasn't in the warehouse
00:17:38.600 was a piece of art
00:17:40.860 I like to call blue.
00:17:43.160 And I like to call it blue
00:17:44.500 because I believe
00:17:45.940 that was the name
00:17:47.200 on the card, blue.
00:17:49.200 Oh, okay.
00:17:49.660 Now,
00:17:49.920 I went up to read
00:17:51.440 the little card
00:17:52.300 on this entire wall
00:17:54.220 at the Metropolitan
00:17:55.400 Museum of Art
00:17:56.240 because I couldn't figure out
00:17:58.500 what it was supposed to be.
00:18:01.040 And then I read blue.
00:18:03.320 And I'm like,
00:18:04.320 well, yes,
00:18:05.980 it is blue.
00:18:06.920 I think it's Sherman
00:18:07.940 Williams number five.
00:18:10.920 I'm not sure.
00:18:12.300 But it was entirely
00:18:13.880 flat blue.
00:18:16.720 It was on a wall
00:18:18.060 I like to call
00:18:19.120 eggshell white.
00:18:22.500 Now,
00:18:23.160 at some point,
00:18:25.120 somebody,
00:18:26.240 and you know
00:18:27.020 this is happening,
00:18:27.820 somebody went,
00:18:30.280 I'm going to paint,
00:18:31.440 I'm just going to paint
00:18:32.160 this thing blue.
00:18:33.780 I'm going to,
00:18:34.420 I'm just going to take a roller
00:18:35.560 and I'm going to paint it blue.
00:18:37.920 I'm not talking about
00:18:38.800 Jackson Pollock
00:18:39.620 where the splatters
00:18:41.400 can be,
00:18:41.960 I'm talking flat blue.
00:18:44.460 I'm looking at the painting
00:18:47.580 now,
00:18:48.020 Glenn.
00:18:48.700 You see it?
00:18:49.200 Wow,
00:18:49.480 it's amazing.
00:18:50.220 It's blue.
00:18:51.040 Well,
00:18:51.520 that is,
00:18:52.200 you're using a shorthand.
00:18:53.740 And you,
00:18:54.440 because you're so familiar
00:18:55.620 with the world of art,
00:18:56.860 you feel comfortable
00:18:57.660 doing that.
00:18:58.400 I will call it by,
00:18:59.220 it's a full name,
00:19:00.120 Blue Panel 2.
00:19:01.780 Blue Panel 2,
00:19:03.180 yeah.
00:19:03.320 Painted in 1977.
00:19:04.960 Yeah.
00:19:05.300 Now,
00:19:05.880 I'm guessing that,
00:19:07.260 who's the artist there?
00:19:08.280 I'm pretending I don't know.
00:19:09.260 Ellsworth Kelly.
00:19:10.120 Ellsworth Kelly.
00:19:11.100 I'm guessing that Ellsworth Kelly
00:19:13.200 was very,
00:19:13.980 very popular on the left
00:19:15.500 at the time.
00:19:16.400 I don't know.
00:19:17.040 And,
00:19:17.460 that's interesting.
00:19:18.660 And,
00:19:19.000 and had,
00:19:20.360 at some point,
00:19:21.840 said to somebody,
00:19:22.880 maybe his husband,
00:19:24.120 maybe his wife,
00:19:25.100 I'm not judging,
00:19:26.720 whatever it is,
00:19:28.080 somebody that he really trusted
00:19:29.800 and went,
00:19:30.820 I just sold this
00:19:34.640 to a freaking museum.
00:19:36.360 Okay?
00:19:37.340 That's how stupid
00:19:38.680 this whole system is.
00:19:40.400 I just sold this.
00:19:43.400 It's Blue Panel 2.
00:19:46.380 Now,
00:19:46.780 can you understand
00:19:47.440 Blue Panel 2
00:19:48.020 if you didn't see
00:19:48.440 the original?
00:19:50.420 Yes,
00:19:50.960 you can understand.
00:19:51.400 If you didn't see
00:19:51.980 Blue Panel 1.
00:19:52.600 Right,
00:19:52.960 if you didn't see that.
00:19:53.860 Yeah.
00:19:54.100 Okay.
00:19:54.380 Blue Panel 1
00:19:55.360 is a little lighter
00:19:57.600 or darker
00:19:58.260 than Blue Panel 2.
00:19:59.680 Now,
00:20:00.040 would you like to hear
00:20:00.640 what he was doing?
00:20:01.200 Not that you don't know,
00:20:01.940 but for the audience.
00:20:02.640 Yeah,
00:20:03.060 what he was trying to do.
00:20:03.920 As Blue Panel 2 suggests,
00:20:05.640 he treated color and shape
00:20:07.080 in his painting
00:20:07.820 as synonymous
00:20:08.580 and an integral
00:20:09.420 with each other
00:20:10.520 in keeping with
00:20:11.560 a prevalent
00:20:11.980 mid-century philosophy
00:20:13.320 that illusionism
00:20:14.360 was a denial
00:20:15.200 of paint's flat essence.
00:20:16.920 Oh my gosh!
00:20:17.580 This guy spent more time
00:20:19.900 coming up
00:20:21.060 with what the meaning was.
00:20:24.220 Kelly's conflation
00:20:25.500 of shape and color
00:20:26.500 is especially evident
00:20:27.560 in his inventive exploration
00:20:29.120 of the shaped canvas.
00:20:30.840 In this case,
00:20:31.520 a trapezoid
00:20:32.480 that is nearly
00:20:33.400 a parallelogram.
00:20:34.980 This design
00:20:35.520 is based on collages
00:20:36.840 he made on a postcard.
00:20:39.360 Postcard views
00:20:40.040 of the island
00:20:40.800 of St. Martin,
00:20:41.620 which may account
00:20:42.180 for the painting's
00:20:42.840 seductive blue
00:20:43.660 evocative of sky
00:20:45.500 and water.
00:20:46.860 That's just blue.
00:20:47.620 Which is blue.
00:20:48.360 It's just a blue painting.
00:20:49.620 That's all it is.
00:20:50.680 That's all it is.
00:20:51.720 That's amazing.
00:20:52.100 I don't think I made
00:20:52.660 a billion dollars out of that.
00:20:53.780 So, you know what?
00:20:54.740 Get over yourself,
00:20:55.900 Huffington Post.
00:20:57.360 Get over yourself.
00:20:58.720 It's a scam.
00:21:00.700 Everybody knows
00:21:01.940 it's a scam.
00:21:03.200 Gee,
00:21:04.420 how come the ones
00:21:05.520 that reflect the values
00:21:07.180 of the left
00:21:08.100 are in museums
00:21:08.940 and it's just
00:21:10.120 a caveman
00:21:11.100 drawn over here?
00:21:14.860 Blue.
00:21:15.980 You're listening

00:22:59.120 I think,
00:22:59.400 is pretty inspirational.
00:23:00.580 Is it?
00:23:00.980 I think so.
00:23:01.880 Yeah.
00:23:02.360 I call it
00:23:03.480 Black.
00:23:06.080 Ooh.
00:23:07.420 Now.
00:23:08.340 Horizontal elegram.
00:23:10.080 Horizontal elegram.
00:23:10.920 Yes.
00:23:11.240 This is one of the days
00:23:12.080 that you just,
00:23:12.780 you must be a member
00:23:13.820 of BlazeTV.
00:23:14.640 You have to see Black.
00:23:15.720 To see Black.
00:23:15.740 To see Black.
00:23:17.480 Black from Pat Gray.
00:23:18.600 Now,
00:23:18.940 how long,
00:23:19.440 when you were painting that,
00:23:20.820 yeah.
00:23:21.000 First of all,
00:23:21.420 how long did that take you?
00:23:22.600 Oh my gosh.
00:23:24.080 17 weeks.
00:23:25.240 17 weeks.
00:23:25.760 17 weeks.
00:23:26.780 Really?
00:23:27.340 Yeah.
00:23:27.700 I had to think it through first.
00:23:29.420 Uh-huh.
00:23:29.920 Uh-huh.
00:23:30.440 Carefully arrange.
00:23:32.700 The lines.
00:23:33.420 Those people who look.
00:23:34.360 What do the lines represent?
00:23:36.560 I'm sorry.
00:23:37.480 Horizontalness.
00:23:38.940 Horizontalness.
00:23:39.400 Yes.
00:23:40.120 Uh-huh.
00:23:40.820 I see what you're saying.
00:23:41.660 Right.
00:23:42.020 But they're not all perfect.
00:23:42.840 I'm noticing they're not all
00:23:43.740 perfectly horizontal.
00:23:44.840 And that's the choice you made.
00:23:45.980 No, that's the choice I made.
00:23:47.320 Exactly right.
00:23:48.000 Thank you, Stu.
00:23:48.500 For the reason of.
00:23:49.940 Well, because we're not all perfect,
00:23:51.300 are we?
00:23:51.940 And that's kind of my statement in this.
00:23:53.560 Oh my gosh.
00:23:53.880 So deep.
00:23:54.500 So deep.
00:23:55.160 So very deep.
00:23:56.560 And the reason why we're.
00:23:57.600 Sometimes the sun rises,
00:23:59.040 and in the extreme north,
00:24:00.740 sometimes it doesn't.
00:24:01.940 Wow.
00:24:02.360 Sometimes in this extreme south.
00:24:04.320 Is that another painting that you might be doing?
00:24:05.820 Yes, that's another one.
00:24:06.740 Yeah.
00:24:07.020 That will be called Aqua.
00:24:09.820 Aqua.
00:24:10.480 Now there's some people that don't read
00:24:12.280 the Huffington Post.
00:24:13.700 Right.
00:24:14.400 That might look at your painting.
00:24:16.820 Yeah.
00:24:17.020 And say that's a draw.
00:24:17.620 I would say that that is just you with a Sharpie five minutes ago.
00:24:20.460 Wow.
00:24:20.720 Those are the ignorant, Stu.
00:24:22.760 Yes.
00:24:23.000 Those will be the people that won't be in the museum.
00:24:25.060 The non-sophisticated.
00:24:26.080 They will not be in museums.
00:24:27.500 Yeah.
00:24:29.380 So I did.
00:24:30.220 It was raining most of my trip.
00:24:32.460 In fact, every day except two.
00:24:35.500 Really?
00:24:36.240 Yeah.
00:24:36.920 Oh, that sucks.
00:24:38.160 And it was just a mud bath the whole time.
00:24:43.040 That always happened.
00:24:44.500 I know.
00:24:45.080 And then I got home yesterday.
00:24:46.940 Did anybody go to the hospital, though?
00:24:48.620 Wait a minute.
00:24:52.260 I know.
00:24:54.040 Not this time?
00:24:55.080 Well, there were two doctor visits, but that's because we were all sick for the first five
00:25:00.060 days.
00:25:00.540 That's incredible, though.
00:25:01.320 You went through an entire vacation without going to the hospital.
00:25:03.600 Yeah.
00:25:03.960 Not me.
00:25:04.920 Anyone in the family.
00:25:05.880 Yeah.
00:25:06.280 Yeah.
00:25:06.480 Nobody in the family went.
00:25:08.040 I mean, obviously, you're all still sick.
00:25:09.400 There was a discussion of it.
00:25:09.860 There was a discussion.
00:25:10.480 There was?
00:25:10.920 Yeah, there was.
00:25:11.700 At some point, we're like, should we go to the hospital?
00:25:13.900 I'm like, no.
00:25:14.660 And I don't remember what that was for.
00:25:16.120 But anyway.
00:25:16.660 Anyway, we're in the part of the country where, honest to God, one of the guys that works
00:25:23.680 with us, he had to have like 30 stitches in his head.
00:25:28.320 A drill bit broke off, drilling through these giant logs.
00:25:33.240 And drilling through a drill bit breaks off, and he cuts his forehead.
00:25:37.360 And the head bleeds a lot.
00:25:39.760 Yeah.
00:25:40.340 And so he had like 30 or 35 stitches.
00:25:43.760 He says, this happens while we're gone.
00:25:46.980 We come back, and his head is just a bloody bandage.
00:25:50.480 And I'm like, dude, what happened?
00:25:53.000 And he's like, ah, this drill bit.
00:25:54.640 And I said, should you go to the hospital?
00:25:57.880 I mean, blood caked all over his face.
00:25:59.660 And this bandage that just looks like he just took a rag and just tied it around his head.
00:26:05.240 I mean, that's how bad it looked.
00:26:06.340 And he's like, no, no.
00:26:08.180 He said, I went.
00:26:09.300 I had to get, I think it was like 35.
00:26:11.220 I had to get like 35 stitches.
00:26:12.880 And I'm like, I don't think you should be here.
00:26:15.560 Did the doctor say you should come back to work?
00:26:17.720 And he said, no, I didn't go to a doctor.
00:26:21.640 Who stitched up your head?
00:26:23.840 I just, doctors are a pain in the ass.
00:26:25.740 I just went down to the vet down the street.
00:26:27.540 You went to a vet.
00:26:29.700 You're a vet.
00:26:30.860 Oh, man.
00:26:31.740 Yeah.
00:26:32.700 Yeah.
00:26:33.240 I wouldn't go to a vet if I met the kind that was doing medicine in Iraq.
00:26:37.380 I wouldn't go to that kind of a vet to be able to get stitches.
00:26:41.160 He just went to the dog.
00:26:42.340 You know, he's like, ah, you don't have to wait.
00:26:45.420 Yeah.
00:26:46.000 Yeah.
00:26:46.280 That's one way of looking at it.
00:26:47.620 Not a huge human line forming for the vet.
00:26:50.060 No.
00:26:50.480 No.
00:26:50.640 Except one vacation.
00:26:51.960 We did go.
00:26:53.380 We were in, I don't remember.
00:26:55.560 The Bahamas or something.
00:26:56.840 And we're on the first day of vacation and absolutely everything has gone wrong.
00:27:03.540 And I have this splitting migraine headache and I hit my head.
00:27:12.680 And so I've got a gash in my head.
00:27:15.380 We just band-aids on that.
00:27:16.760 And I'm having a horrible day.
00:27:19.080 Somebody else gashes their head, does the same thing I did, breaks open their skin.
00:27:24.360 And they need stitches.
00:27:26.080 But he's like, nah, I'm not going.
00:27:27.840 I'm just going to hold it together for a while.
00:27:29.660 I'm like, no, dude.
00:27:31.160 Then we're standing out there and we're standing in the sunlight.
00:27:34.200 And Tanya's eyes are just pinpoint pupils.
00:27:38.600 And I said, I've never seen your eyes like this.
00:27:44.140 And she's like, ah, it's just probably the brightness of the sun.
00:27:46.240 I said, come over here.
00:27:47.040 Come in the shade for a second.
00:27:48.740 They don't change.
00:27:50.040 Okay.
00:27:50.560 She goes into the dark.
00:27:51.800 They don't change at all.
00:27:53.260 We go inside and I close all the curtains and I take a flashlight and I'm like, let me
00:27:58.240 see your eyes are changing.
00:27:59.540 Your eyes aren't changing.
00:28:00.480 There's something wrong.
00:28:01.200 To be fair, you are a doctor.
00:28:02.400 I'm a doctor.
00:28:03.040 You can do this.
00:28:03.480 So I just never seen this.
00:28:05.900 And so I call a doctor friend of mine in New York and he happens to be a neurologist.
00:28:11.300 And he's like, okay, Glenn, I don't want you to panic.
00:28:15.420 And I'm like, okay, I'm panicking just from that.
00:28:18.280 What do you mean?
00:28:18.720 Don't panic.
00:28:19.840 And he said that that could be very bad.
00:28:23.020 That that could be a brain tumor.
00:28:25.060 There could be some real problems there.
00:28:27.200 So you took her to the vet.
00:28:28.720 So he said, you have to come back right away.
00:28:31.660 And I'm like, we're just, we just, we just got, are you sure?
00:28:35.800 Like, like you, I mean, there couldn't be anything else.
00:28:38.000 And he's like, are you guys doing drugs?
00:28:39.560 And I'm like, no.
00:28:40.780 And he said, okay, well then there's nothing else.
00:28:43.600 And he said, I want you to get cat scan right away.
00:28:46.720 Just there on the Island, find a place cat scan.
00:28:48.960 So we go.
00:28:50.080 So she's in this cat scan and they're doing the, the, you know, the cat scan thing.
00:28:56.040 And the guy working the cat scan said, it's pretty cool.
00:28:59.640 And I'm thinking, what's cool.
00:29:04.260 And I said, this machine with all these buttons.
00:29:07.200 So this is pretty cool.
00:29:08.440 And I'm like, well, what, what, what, what's cool.
00:29:12.440 And he said, this is the first time we've ever had a human in this.
00:29:15.780 And I said, what?
00:29:18.300 It was a hospital.
00:29:19.720 I said, what?
00:29:21.200 And he said, yeah, usually dolphins.
00:29:23.300 Usually we just do dolphins.
00:29:24.700 So I'm like, are you qualified to tell me what should be in her head?
00:29:30.880 I mean, dolphin brains and human brains, I don't think are alike.
00:29:35.360 Are they?
00:29:37.160 So we have a lot of, she, the doctor kept saying, it's okay.
00:29:43.400 You can tell me you guys are doing drugs.
00:29:45.560 And I'm like, we're not doing drugs.
00:29:48.500 And he's like, okay.
00:29:50.700 All right.
00:29:51.220 We're like, it's not drugs.
00:29:53.840 And he's like, I got it.
00:29:55.040 I got it.
00:29:55.480 You have no idea how boring we are.
00:29:56.840 We're not doing drugs.
00:29:58.660 And he's like, have you had any Japanese blowfish?
00:30:01.860 And I'm like, no.
00:30:03.880 That's even, that's even less ridiculous than us doing drugs.
00:30:09.240 If we ate Japanese blowfish, we would tell you we were on drugs.
00:30:12.060 So it turns out that I had had seasick, you know, that the seasick patches, and if you
00:30:21.020 even just touch them and you're sensitive to it, it can change the pupils, the dilation
00:30:27.860 of your eyes.
00:30:28.680 And so it turns out we were doing drugs.
00:30:32.020 I didn't even know it.
00:30:33.160 We're doing drugs.
00:30:33.760 Without any of the fun of doing drugs.
00:30:36.240 Right.
00:30:36.580 Just cutting out the vomiting, which.
00:30:39.580 Was there any point while you were at the veterinarian that something slipped out of
00:30:42.960 you?
00:30:43.880 No, nothing slipped out of my butt.
00:30:45.900 Did you hear about the stupid criminal earlier?
00:30:47.820 I heard a portion of that.
00:30:48.960 Yeah.
00:30:49.280 Yeah.
00:30:49.800 Drugs slipping out of his butt.
00:30:50.820 I tuned in in time to hear slipping out of his anus.
00:30:53.220 Yeah.
00:30:53.760 Well, that was the actual text of the story.
00:30:56.720 That was the text of the story.
00:30:58.000 All right.
00:30:58.260 So.
00:30:58.560 They wouldn't use butt.
00:30:59.780 That would be ridiculous.
00:31:00.980 Anyway, I got to get the, because I want to take these things down.
00:31:03.380 I, we were talking about, uh, we were talking about the, the art, uh, of the, the left and
00:31:09.760 the, the drawings of the right and how it's just propaganda and, uh, wait, yes, that's
00:31:18.640 what you guys were doing with Barack Obama.
00:31:21.080 You were doing it with photography.
00:31:22.580 You were doing it with the written word.
00:31:24.780 You were doing it on everything.
00:31:26.260 Remember all the halos over Obama's head.
00:31:29.100 Yeah.
00:31:29.340 We took pictures of it.
00:31:30.220 And they were like, oh, that's ridiculous.
00:31:31.380 Oh, really?
00:31:32.220 You didn't see that, Mr.
00:31:34.140 I see all kinds of deep meaning in a blue panel.
00:31:38.600 Um, so, uh, they didn't include me and I'm really upset, uh, that they didn't include
00:31:44.380 my drawings.
00:31:45.140 And, uh, these are just two things that I did while on vacation.
00:31:48.120 Uh, I want to show you the first one.
00:31:49.960 I like to call this, uh, China and Biden play set.
00:31:54.300 Cause that's what it says on it.
00:31:56.060 Uh, China and Biden play set strings included.
00:31:59.120 Uh, it's not finished because I haven't put the, uh, the golden girl, uh, action grab hands,
00:32:06.340 uh, on it yet, but you see that's, uh, chairman Mao as Geppetto and, uh, Joe Biden as a Pinocchio
00:32:15.100 grabbing the gold and the cash.
00:32:16.980 Uh, so I like it, uh, Hunter Biden action figure sold separately.
00:32:22.140 And, uh, this is actually a direct ripoff of a propaganda piece, uh, done in the Ukraine.
00:32:29.320 Uh, I just made it more American.
00:32:31.740 Uh, this is, uh, Putin controlling the actions of, I like to say that's almost Jake Tapper,
00:32:39.540 but not quite.
00:32:41.500 My son says that that is Anderson Cooper.
00:32:44.480 And I say, no, it's actually more of a Charlie McCarthy, but you can interpret it any way
00:32:49.780 you want.
00:32:50.560 Uh, and the banner underneath is Dems and peach and, uh, Putin's controlling the, uh, the
00:32:57.720 strings of CNN.
00:32:58.400 I like those.
00:32:59.220 You like those?
00:32:59.840 Yeah.
00:33:00.160 That should move you up the chart a little bit.
00:33:01.640 I think.
00:33:02.040 I think so.
00:33:02.780 And I, uh, I think they're, I think they're going to, I think the Huffington Post will enjoy
00:33:07.420 all of these.
00:33:08.740 Oh, absolutely.
00:33:09.600 They will, and we'll see them in museums real soon.
00:33:14.800 Oh my gosh.
00:33:15.780 Right around the corner.
00:33:16.680 I mean, right next to a blue splotch, Pat Gray's black, black, uh, and horizontal, horizontal
00:33:26.080 to lelogram and some horizontal to lelogram.
00:33:29.580 There it is.
00:33:30.660 And perhaps maybe some, uh, you know, well-known religious icon in, in urine or some other terrible.
00:33:37.140 Well, we still have Obama and PP, uh, which I remember all that's right.
00:33:41.940 Obama and PP.
00:33:42.840 They went crazy over that.
00:33:44.100 They went nuts over that.
00:33:45.340 You put, you put a cross or Christ in PP.
00:33:49.100 They're fine.
00:33:49.600 And they put it in a museum.
00:33:51.220 I put a bobble head of Barack Obama in PP and they went nuts.
00:33:56.840 At least we know who their God is.
00:34:00.960 Uh, welcome to the program.
00:34:02.340 Let me tell you about simply safe recent Gallup.
00:34:05.380 Excuse me.
00:34:06.660 A recent Gallup survey shows Americans.
00:34:10.060 Worry more about burglary than almost any other crime.
00:34:14.340 Um, burglary is, is, is not that common.
00:34:19.500 I mean, we're, we're actually in really good, uh, standing right now, far as crime, crime
00:34:25.700 is going to get worse.
00:34:27.600 I think as things get worse here in America, but over 10% of breakouts, uh, break-ins are
00:34:33.600 planned beforehand, only 10%.
00:34:35.840 So these are spur of the moment things, mostly what turns the criminal away is a security
00:34:43.220 system.
00:34:44.640 Two million burglaries are reported every single year.
00:34:48.400 Only 10% was like, Hmm, how do we get into this house?
00:34:51.880 The rest of them walk up, they look through your door, they look through your windows and
00:34:56.100 they see if they, you have a security system.
00:34:58.080 And if it's on, if it's on, you have one and it's on, they go to the next house.
00:35:04.700 You want to turn it on.
00:35:05.600 That's a, that's a key part of this equation as well.
00:35:08.600 Simply safe is the home security system that you need.
00:35:11.600 It's not a little, you know, gadget that, Oh yeah, I can see my front door.
00:35:15.720 What good does that do?
00:35:17.300 I mean, that's nice, but that's really not all you need.
00:35:21.200 Simply safe has little gadget.
00:35:22.820 If you want to see what's at your front door.
00:35:24.020 I love this.
00:35:25.220 I went over to my son's house.
00:35:26.460 He has simply safe.
00:35:28.100 And he's like, you have to see this.
00:35:29.540 Look at this.
00:35:30.780 It, it shows the, not only front door, but he has cameras in the house, shows the front
00:35:35.240 door.
00:35:35.460 If you ring the doorbell, it will alert him and he can see who's there, even at work.
00:35:41.460 And he can say, Oh, you know what?
00:35:42.880 Leave that package just inside the door.
00:35:44.880 Hang on.
00:35:46.860 And it unlocks the door.
00:35:49.140 It, he goes in, it turns off the alarm, unlocks the door.
00:35:53.440 The guy can put the package in.
00:35:54.880 He can see what the guy is doing the whole time.
00:35:57.360 Close the door.
00:35:58.100 He can relock it and turn on the alarm system.
00:36:01.200 It's amazing.
00:36:02.420 That's a really cool.
00:36:03.040 Yeah, simply safe.
00:36:04.160 It's more than just a little gadget.
00:36:06.520 It is the secure system that you need for your home security, the right way and at a price
00:36:14.260 that you can afford and $14.99 a month for the 24 seven monitoring.
00:36:19.960 It's simply safe back.com go there now simply safe back.com.
00:36:24.680 It's fascinating what happened over in Europe last week, the results of the European elections.
00:36:33.040 It was a real big loss for the European Union.
00:36:38.340 These so-called traditionalists, the ones who are not traditionalists, they're the ones
00:36:43.980 who want the European Union to continue to stand.
00:36:48.200 They're starting to be in the vast minority.
00:36:51.680 These elections, did you follow them at all, Stu?
00:36:53.920 Yeah, we did a little bit on this last week.
00:36:55.440 And it's a fascinating thing of, I just don't understand the system at all.
00:36:58.660 Like, it's like, oh, I didn't get the thing I wanted to get done.
00:37:01.100 So I'm just going to resign.
00:37:02.140 And then we'll just have new elections.
00:37:04.120 And like, it's so weird.
00:37:05.620 Oh, the parliamentary system.
00:37:07.380 Yeah.
00:37:07.720 Talking about Britain?
00:37:08.620 Yeah, with Britain.
00:37:09.220 And then the EU, the reason why Britain's kind of in the news with these EU elections
00:37:13.180 is the Brexit party won, I think it was 31.5% of the vote.
00:37:18.440 It was the number one party in Britain.
00:37:20.880 The party did not exist six weeks ago.
00:37:23.860 It was created six weeks ago.
00:37:26.280 And now it's the biggest party from Britain in the EU.
00:37:29.740 I think it's fantastic.
00:37:30.700 I mean, I think it's which one is that weird system.
00:37:33.080 Because there's Nigel Farage, and then there's the other guy, Daniel Hannon, right?
00:37:39.040 And Farage is the guy who's kind of in with the Bannons of the world.
00:37:45.400 I think that's accurate.
00:37:47.120 And Hannon is not.
00:37:48.060 Yeah.
00:37:48.420 I mean, I love Daniel Hannon.
00:37:49.720 I do, too.
00:37:50.460 He's great.
00:37:51.480 And Farage has a lot of good, you know, he's not like a, he's one of those guys that gets
00:37:55.840 beat up in the media a lot.
00:37:57.060 Sometimes, I think, unfairly.
00:37:58.920 Yeah.
00:37:59.100 But he was a very big Brexit guy as well.
00:38:02.060 But there's a couple different approaches on Brexit.
00:38:04.260 Right.
00:38:04.760 But yeah, he's.
00:38:06.080 One is more nationalist, more, I can't even say nationalist.
00:38:09.780 It's not, it gives the wrong flavor to it.
00:38:13.800 I guess one is more.
00:38:14.840 Populist.
00:38:15.320 Yeah, more populist and does have a tinge of race to it.
00:38:22.220 The other is like, the system doesn't work.
00:38:25.000 The system is just bad for Great Britain.
00:38:27.220 Um, and, uh, and, and I think that is, that one is the Daniel Hannon, uh, side.
00:38:35.280 Yeah.
00:38:35.800 He's saying that it's just bad for Great Britain.
00:38:37.620 Just bad for Great Britain.
00:38:38.100 I mean, look, if you're a country, you should be able to make your own freaking decisions.
00:38:41.240 These are basic things.
00:38:42.880 This swept Europe now.
00:38:45.360 I mean, the European Union is in real trouble.
00:38:48.580 And both.
00:38:49.140 Both ways, too.
00:38:50.000 I mean, it's, you've seen this.
00:38:51.320 Yes.
00:38:51.600 Because a lot of the, there's the, the far left, the socialists, the green parties in
00:38:56.120 Europe also did very well.
00:38:57.620 And then what they're finding is people just abandoning those, the major parties and going
00:39:01.740 to these more parties.
00:39:02.620 It's going to happen here.
00:39:03.360 Everything that is happening in Europe is just ahead of us.
00:39:08.000 Just ahead of us.
00:39:09.080 It's going to happen here.
00:39:10.920 These parties are, it's over.
00:39:13.940 It's just over.
00:39:15.860 When it will happen here in the United States, I don't know.
00:39:18.820 It's harder to happen here because the two-party system controls everything.
00:39:23.560 But it's going to come here.
00:39:25.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:31.980 No, it's.
00:39:34.480 I know.
00:39:35.120 But maybe we don't want to disclose that, too.
00:39:36.780 I know.
00:39:37.360 It will go away.
00:39:38.720 We're just sitting here talking about, I was, I was at a gun store up in Idaho.
00:39:46.220 And I think it's Remington that's making this new gun.
00:39:50.040 And we're just talking about, Stu just said, I said, we got to talk about it.
00:39:54.180 And he said, no, maybe we shouldn't.
00:39:55.920 I'm like, well, no, but it's in gun stores now.
00:39:58.500 I mean, you should let me get mine first.
00:40:00.320 Right.
00:40:01.380 It's quite an amazing discovery that I made.
00:40:06.020 And it just shows how little Washington knows about guns and how ridiculous the idea of trying
00:40:16.660 to regulate or stop.
00:40:18.260 It's just not going to happen because, first of all, they don't understand them.
00:40:24.180 We'll go there.
00:40:24.920 Also, the elections in Europe and how you can help those who are in real dire need today
00:40:33.140 in Ohio.
00:40:34.180 All coming up in one minute.
00:40:38.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:34.660 You know, my son in law, he's has been working on this.

00:42:00.160 Real estate agents, I trust dot com.
00:42:13.860 I don't know if I'm ever going to come back, but one of these one of these times I go on
00:42:17.460 vacation and I'm just not going to come back because I just I learn so much on a farm.
00:42:25.900 We.
00:42:29.000 We are fortunate enough to be able to have a farm and and not be in the farmer's position.
00:42:36.140 These farmers are really going through really tough times.
00:42:40.680 I had one I had one farmer, a dairy farmer, try to explain to me how the price of milk
00:42:47.500 could be below the cost of production for like the last nine years like that's not possible.
00:42:57.680 Well, it is if you start to, you know, screw with the system, we start to tinker with the
00:43:04.640 free market, then it is possible.
00:43:08.320 And these dairy farmers, the small dairy farmers, man, they are really, really struggling.
00:43:14.800 And the farms are struggling all across the country.
00:43:18.300 Part of it has to do with with trade.
00:43:22.080 But, you know, you learn so much about our farm is in this this dry area.
00:43:29.060 That's a almost a desert that's brought to life every year by just irrigation.
00:43:34.860 And so you pray for rain.
00:43:37.240 And if you don't have the right amount of rain, it's just you're not going to everything dies.
00:43:42.880 Everything dies.
00:43:43.940 If you have rain at the wrong time, you cut your hay, you cut your alfalfa, whatever you cut
00:43:51.780 your crop, and then it has to lay there and dry in the sun for a while.
00:43:55.800 If it rains in those three to five days that you have it sitting there, it's all bad.
00:44:01.560 I mean, there's just so many things that could go wrong.
00:44:04.080 There's a joke in the area that that we have our farm that it's only rained twice this spring.
00:44:10.120 And it rained.
00:44:11.440 It rained from February until April.
00:44:14.640 And then from April, middle of April till now, it's been raining nonstop.
00:44:22.100 So people can't plant their fields.
00:44:25.480 Now, we planted our fields in a in a in a rare dry area in between those two rain spells.
00:44:31.480 So ours is growing, but there's been no sun.
00:44:34.000 So it's not growing enough.
00:44:35.140 And if we cut it, it's going to sit there and it will rot in the field.
00:44:39.420 Everybody else, they haven't been growing their field.
00:44:42.020 They haven't even had them planted yet.
00:44:43.700 So we're both stuck.
00:44:44.900 But here's how it's all trickled down.
00:44:46.900 The people who are raising cattle, they don't have feed because they plan on feed until around, you know, the end of May or June when the new hay starts to come in.
00:45:01.020 So there's nothing to feed these animals.
00:45:03.620 It's crazy.
00:45:05.480 It's crazy how delicate and how insane it is to be a farmer.
00:45:12.900 But when you're a farmer, you understand everything.
00:45:17.680 Anybody who is talking about gender identity, go spend a summer on a farm.
00:45:24.840 You want to know how things work?
00:45:28.060 Go spend a summer on a farm.
00:45:30.880 You're having problems with your son or daughter.
00:45:34.840 Go spend a summer on a farm.
00:45:37.320 My son changed over two weeks.
00:45:44.960 Getting him out of bed, getting him to do anything is like insane.
00:45:49.940 He's a 15-year-old kid going all through the normal 15-year-old boy stuff.
00:45:56.700 Getting him on the farm where he was getting up and actually accomplishing stuff, having to build or mend fences, was amazing.
00:46:08.820 And it changed him.
00:46:10.620 I mean, he was climbing mountains.
00:46:11.860 By the end of the two weeks, we were over at a friend's house, and he has this big, huge, literal mountain in his backyard.
00:46:19.580 And my son said, hey, do you mind if I just climb that?
00:46:25.560 And he's like, no.
00:46:26.780 And nobody thought anything about it.
00:46:27.980 I was not around when he said that.
00:46:30.680 Nobody thought two things about it.
00:46:32.760 He's a 15-year-old boy.
00:46:33.840 Sure, go climb the mountain.
00:46:35.060 It's a big mountain.
00:46:37.260 And I come around because it was a big gathering of people.
00:46:40.480 And I come around the corner, and a bunch of people are looking up at the mountain.
00:46:44.860 And I said, what are you looking at?
00:46:46.040 I said, see that red dot up there?
00:46:47.640 And I could just barely make out this red dot.
00:46:50.040 That's your son.
00:46:50.820 What?
00:46:51.360 When did that happen?
00:46:53.000 What's going on?
00:46:53.880 Who told him he could climb the mountain?
00:46:56.740 He climbed the mountain.
00:46:58.860 Came back down.
00:47:00.540 I was both thrilled and freaking out the whole time.
00:47:07.120 We don't.
00:47:09.500 Our society does not allow our kids to grow up.
00:47:16.380 Ever.
00:47:17.640 I am convinced that our 15-year-olds could be fixing all kinds of stuff, could be actually
00:47:26.500 really making an impact in a positive way in our society if they weren't so trapped in
00:47:35.020 these schools that are teaching them nonsense.
00:47:37.660 We treat our kids like they're kids, and it's hard, because today's society, everything's
00:47:44.940 like that.
00:47:45.480 I'm standing around a group of farmers, and no one said, oh, no, I don't know.
00:47:51.340 Ask.
00:47:51.920 Ask.
00:47:52.480 You know, ask his dad.
00:47:53.340 He asked his dad.
00:47:54.880 They were just like, yeah, go ahead.
00:47:56.880 It's just the backyard.
00:47:58.040 No, it's a mountain.
00:47:59.220 There's something wrong with our society.
00:48:07.840 And what's wrong with our society is we have gotten away from how things actually work.
00:48:15.500 We're living in this theoretical world.
00:48:20.460 When you're out on a farm, there is no theory here.
00:48:23.600 If it rains, the crops will grow.
00:48:29.180 If it rains too much, the crops won't grow.
00:48:33.460 If there's no sun, they won't grow.
00:48:36.640 If there's too much sun, they'll shrivel up and die.
00:48:42.280 There's no theory.
00:48:45.640 We were out mending fences.
00:48:49.640 Now, when I say the phrase to you, mending fences, what does that mean?
00:48:54.380 When you think of mending fences, you think of what?
00:48:59.120 Coming together, bringing people together, repairing arguments and, you know, I'm sorry.
00:49:07.860 No, no, it's my fault.
00:49:09.300 It's your fault.
00:49:10.620 Mending fences.
00:49:12.000 Well, I've never mended a fence before until I started stringing a fence.
00:49:17.800 And then I'm like, I ain't doing this again.
00:49:19.760 Where is it broken?
00:49:21.080 Can we just tie another piece of barbed wire together and pull it taut again?
00:49:27.200 Yeah, that's called mending fences.
00:49:29.120 And why do you mend fences?
00:49:33.180 You mend fences so your animals don't get out and start to graze on somebody else's land.
00:49:42.140 When your fence goes down, your cow is now on somebody else's land and your cow is now eating their food, their grass.
00:49:53.840 We look at the phrase mending fences as saying, hey, you know, we're both wrong.
00:50:05.280 No, mending fences has nothing to do with that.
00:50:09.940 Mending fences means build a wall.
00:50:13.340 My neighbors and I, we're going to get along fine as long as my cows don't go and steal their food or their cows don't come over and steal my cow's food.
00:50:27.940 We're going to be fine.
00:50:30.000 We're perfectly neighborly with each other until one of us needs to mend a fence because, dude, you got to mend that because your cows keep coming over and eating my food.
00:50:45.900 You know what we need to do with Mexico?
00:50:50.560 Mend fences.
00:50:51.560 Now, that's a phrase you hear build a wall.
00:50:56.740 That's horrible.
00:50:57.620 No, no, no.
00:50:58.380 We need to mend fences.
00:51:02.860 In a farming community, that means putting up an electric fence.
00:51:07.420 That means putting up barbed wire.
00:51:11.700 So the cows, because the cows will, they'll stick their head through barbed wire and they'll eat the grass close to the road or they'll eat the grass on the other side of the fence and they'll get their heads in between those fences and they can't get out sometimes.
00:51:30.080 Because the grass is always greener on the other side.
00:51:33.400 You look at these damn cows and you're like, turn around, cow.
00:51:36.560 There's plenty of stuff over here.
00:51:40.280 Nope.
00:51:40.800 They want the grass on the other side of that fence.
00:51:45.400 And you mend it.
00:51:49.600 And if it's really bad, you do what we do.
00:51:52.880 We had to put an electric fence up.
00:51:57.180 Now, imagine putting an electric fence up.
00:52:01.080 That seems pretty radical.
00:52:03.400 Expensive.
00:52:05.020 A thousand acres.
00:52:07.500 And an electric fence.
00:52:12.260 Does it really work?
00:52:13.880 Does it shock them?
00:52:14.880 What does that even feel like to a cow?
00:52:17.740 No, the cows actually, they hit it once and then they don't hit it again.
00:52:23.920 They hit it once.
00:52:26.020 And they can actually hear the buzz of the electric fence.
00:52:32.000 There's a warning.
00:52:32.920 Don't do it.
00:52:33.640 Don't do it.
00:52:34.120 It's not like a cow's just walking around all of a sudden.
00:52:35.860 A cow can hear it.
00:52:40.080 A horse can hear it.
00:52:42.460 They hear the current and they've hit it once.
00:52:46.180 And they're like, I ain't going to do that again.
00:52:47.900 So you mend fences, which means keep your stuff on your side.
00:52:56.280 I like you.
00:52:56.900 We're good neighbors.
00:52:58.080 Keep your stuff on your side.
00:52:59.620 I'll keep the stuff on my side.
00:53:01.460 That's mine.
00:53:02.000 And we'll get together, you know, at the town hall or, you know, church or wherever.
00:53:07.480 We'll see you in the grocery store because we're good neighbors.
00:53:10.680 But what stops us from fighting is knowing that there is a fence there.
00:53:18.380 This is my stuff.
00:53:20.340 That's your stuff.
00:53:22.620 We can trade.
00:53:24.260 We'll help each other.
00:53:28.260 Let's stop talking about building a wall.
00:53:32.000 Because that has all kinds of all kinds of images.
00:53:36.760 The Berlin wall.
00:53:39.640 Mending fences is what we need to do.
00:53:44.580 You can have a tough fence.
00:53:46.660 It could be a giant wall.
00:53:47.900 It could be an electric fence.
00:53:50.100 But you need one.
00:53:53.160 And that's how you come together.
00:53:57.180 The side that's having the problem.
00:53:59.360 Men's the fence.
00:54:09.720 All right.
00:54:11.480 People, you know, you don't give stuff away, you know, that you really want.
00:54:16.640 You don't put it out on the curb because, you know, you put it on the curb.
00:54:20.580 Somebody's going to come by and you're like, all of a sudden you're like, wait a minute, maybe that couch wasn't so bad.
00:54:24.840 Somebody just took it in 10 minutes.
00:54:26.500 People put stuff out on the curb and that means, you know, it's either trash or you can come and, I guess, go through it.
00:54:34.520 You don't do that with stuff that you really need protected.
00:54:37.460 The things that you value.
00:54:38.620 You don't put your information out on the curb.
00:54:41.840 But that's what you do every single time that you go on a public Wi-Fi.
00:54:46.820 You go on public Wi-Fi and you're putting your information and your life out on the curb.
00:54:52.200 And there are people out there that want that damn couch.
00:54:55.620 And you're like, hey, you don't really want it.
00:54:57.300 I don't have that much to lose.
00:54:58.760 You actually do.
00:55:00.600 You actually do.
00:55:01.720 And there are people you go to a coffee shop.
00:55:04.120 There are people that want that information.
00:55:06.400 So what you need is a virtual private network, a VPN.
00:55:12.300 Norton is the company that we've we've come to associate with, you know, security online.
00:55:19.160 Norton has now developed a VPN.
00:55:21.740 It starts at three dollars and thirty three cents a month.
00:55:24.600 If you sign up for the year, it is a virtual private network.
00:55:27.700 It means that you are secure when you are online.
00:55:30.520 Nobody's going to come in and be tracking you.
00:55:33.240 And Facebook is not gathering information on you.
00:55:37.460 Norton dot com slash VPN.
00:55:40.480 Norton dot com slash VPN.
00:55:43.960 Go there now.
00:55:45.420 Sign up.
00:55:46.000 You download the app.
00:55:47.060 You sign in once.
00:55:48.060 And now you're online with all your devices through a virtual private network.
00:55:52.700 Norton dot com slash VPN.
00:55:55.540 We break for 10 seconds.
00:55:56.780 Station ID.
00:55:57.700 You know, every time I, I leave the city and I go out into the real world because I don't think cities are the real world.
00:56:26.960 I really don't.
00:56:29.120 I just have a different perspective and I like it so much more.
00:56:35.780 I like living in a city and having access to everything, you know.
00:56:40.460 But I don't like living in a city, having access to everything.
00:56:44.680 We live in a paradox right now.
00:56:48.180 We know what's causing a lot of our problems.
00:56:51.280 Social media.
00:56:52.760 Absolutely.
00:56:53.200 Remember all the talk about how damaging talk radio was to society.
00:56:59.360 Talk radio is destroying our country, our national dialogue.
00:57:04.200 Really?
00:57:06.300 How come we're not hearing that about social media from the same experts?
00:57:11.900 And we all know it.
00:57:13.520 When it comes to social media, we all know we have changed because of social media.
00:57:19.680 It's changed us.
00:57:20.780 And even the people who have developed social media, they're not on social media.
00:57:28.140 They don't do it because they know it changes their family.
00:57:33.380 It's really revealing when you think about it that way.
00:57:35.440 It really is.
00:57:35.960 I think, too, there's an element of it.
00:57:37.720 And being in this business in particular gives you, I think, a unique window into it.
00:57:42.660 And that, like, if you're in radio or television, you've been in it for, what, a thousand years, Glenn?
00:57:46.420 Thank you.
00:57:46.760 I've been seemingly a thousand.
00:57:49.100 Not that much less anymore, it feels like.
00:57:52.160 But it's like, you know when you're in radio, for example, that most of the people around you are generally speaking insane.
00:57:58.320 Like, this is just a known fact of television, radio, any, I think, entertainment industry.
00:58:05.120 Basically, everybody you're surrounded by is insane.
00:58:07.500 And you're probably insane, too.
00:58:09.440 Like, there's a certain insanity that leads you into this world.
00:58:14.240 And there is some sort of defect.
00:58:15.660 Yeah, I think it's true.
00:58:17.060 It is.
00:58:17.660 And what's interesting is as you go through your life in entertainment, you look at the world completely differently.
00:58:26.140 Like, you're constantly mining it, essentially, for material.
00:58:28.820 I mean, like, you're mending fences.
00:58:30.760 Like, most people go out and they freaking fix the fence and they go back inside.
00:58:34.360 Right?
00:58:34.540 You're looking for some analogy.
00:58:36.600 And you're not doing it intentionally.
00:58:38.060 It's just part of who you are now.
00:58:39.440 You're looking for what is the larger meaning.
00:58:41.300 How can I explain something interesting based on this?
00:58:43.440 It all happens.
00:58:44.180 And in a way, you're looking to take what's in your life and turn it into engaging content.
00:58:50.740 Right?
00:58:51.160 That's what you do.
00:58:52.540 And I think part of the sickness with social media is now everyone is in the broadcasting industry.
00:58:58.880 Every single person has their own show.
00:59:01.620 And that brings weird things out of people.
00:59:04.420 It does.
00:59:05.200 It makes you...
00:59:06.220 I mean, you've heard, like, you know, Howard Stern's doing this big...
00:59:08.700 Have you read his book yet?
00:59:09.600 I haven't read it yet.
00:59:10.440 It's really good.
00:59:11.220 It's really good.
00:59:12.200 He's doing this big media tour and then people...
00:59:13.940 One of the things they're trying to do, the media is trying to do what they, you know, do all the time to politicians.
00:59:20.340 And they're, like, looking back at his past works and past jokes and past comments and trying to pick the worst ones out and say to him,
00:59:26.540 Hey, like, you know, you're a bad person and we shouldn't allow you in the mainstream.
00:59:31.360 Look at this thing you said in 1991, right?
00:59:34.060 That's incredible.
00:59:34.980 From the same people.
00:59:36.280 Who praised him.
00:59:37.220 I mean, the entire time.
00:59:38.240 Who praised him as a genius.
00:59:38.800 But what's interesting about it, too, is, like, you know, his response is, like, look, I do a show in which, yes, it's me, but I'm also trying to incite reactions out of the audience.
00:59:48.760 That's my job.
00:59:49.920 Well, now that's everyone's job.
00:59:52.340 Everyone hops on Twitter and is trying to incite reactions out of the audience to get retweets or whatever else it is.
00:59:57.940 I think this was in my last book where I talked about the problem is everybody was focused on talk radio and how bad talk radio is.
01:00:05.880 But when I first got into radio and talk radio, I had to develop an audience.
01:00:12.900 Now my audience has an audience.
01:00:16.720 So everyone, and I don't mean everyone, but, I mean, so many people are developing audiences.
01:00:22.800 They worry about the clicks.
01:00:24.640 They worry about the likes.
01:00:25.780 How many people like this?
01:00:26.680 How many people shared this?
01:00:27.940 Blah, blah, blah.
01:00:28.840 That's you looking at ratings.
01:00:31.100 So everyone who ever said, all these talk radio people, all they do is they look for, they're saying it for ratings.
01:00:37.020 If you're liking, sharing, or worried about clicks, you're in the same boat.

01:02:12.200 I grew up in the Pacific Northwest where extreme weather was 20 days of sunshine.
01:02:18.800 The only thing that we had in regards to natural disasters that I recall, I remember I was about 17 years old, I think, when Mount St. Helens blew up.
01:02:31.460 And I was on the other side of the state, and I heard it.
01:02:34.360 It shook the windows.
01:02:36.760 But on that, really nothing.
01:02:39.880 I mean, we don't have a fly problem or a mosquito problem.
01:02:42.660 It's pretty sweet in the Pacific Northwest.
01:02:44.320 You move around the country, and you get a real sense of how different people are and how different the areas are.
01:02:56.420 And you start to appreciate weather.
01:02:59.680 I remember because we didn't, it rained all the time in Seattle, but if you have ever been in Seattle or lived in Seattle, you know it doesn't ever rain really hard.
01:03:06.980 It's just always misty and drizzly.
01:03:08.860 And I remember 18 years old, moving out to Washington, D.C., and people must have thought I was crazy.
01:03:14.700 I'm 18.
01:03:15.620 I'm in this rental apartment that I had an Apple box, a little, like, 12-inch screen TV.
01:03:24.820 I had a mattress and a refrigerator full of beer and macaroni boxes.
01:03:31.720 That was it.
01:03:32.240 And it rained in August, and it rained like a Washington humidity thunderstorm.
01:03:42.520 I had never seen lightning before.
01:03:46.280 We have what's called, I can't even remember now, sheet lightning.
01:03:51.080 It would be up above the clouds in Washington State, so you never saw a bolt.
01:03:54.320 And I stood out, like an idiot, stood out in the rain, just watching these bolts come down, thinking, this is unbelievable.
01:04:04.880 The one place that I have lived that scares the hell out of me is Texas.
01:04:10.940 Because they have one weather event that is completely unpredictable and so destructive.
01:04:18.500 It's terrifying.
01:04:21.060 They're tornadoes.
01:04:22.360 When a tornado goes off here, and we're in kind of a suburb of Tornado Alley, when we have tornado warnings that happen, and when they happen, at least for me, it still freaks me out in the family.
01:04:42.300 It means get into the center of the house.
01:04:44.200 Like, oh, okay.
01:04:46.020 All right, the center of the house where there's no glass.
01:04:48.860 Oh, okay, sure.
01:04:49.880 That's going to, I don't know if you know this, it's up above the house.
01:04:53.160 It could set down in the middle of the house and suck us up into it.
01:04:59.640 And they are so random.
01:05:01.880 If you've ever seen the effects of a tornado, something on one side of the street can be absolutely fine.
01:05:09.620 And a corner of the house across the street is completely gone.
01:05:16.000 They jump, they jump fast.
01:05:18.660 And the destructive power is unlike anything I've ever seen.
01:05:23.040 A massive tornado tore through Dayton, one of Ohio's largest cities last night, levels home, leveled homes, entire apartment complexes, knocked out power, knocked out water.
01:05:38.860 There are tens of thousands of people, about 140,000 people in this area, trying now to figure out their lives as this tornado, massive tornado, just hopscotched across Ohio.
01:05:55.980 Last week, it was bad.
01:06:00.940 Indiana, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio now, destruction all across the country, Oklahoma.
01:06:10.880 And it's been a busy week for Mercury One.
01:06:13.520 And to tell us what we can do is Suzanne Grishman.
01:06:18.440 She is here.
01:06:19.360 She is the executive director of Mercury One.
01:06:25.280 Welcome to the program, Suzanne.
01:06:26.640 How are you?
01:06:27.240 I'm good.
01:06:27.720 Good morning, Glenn.
01:06:28.400 So I know you guys were out last week for the storms in Oklahoma.
01:06:33.020 What do we have going on and what do people need?
01:06:37.080 So it's been a busy week for our partners on the ground.
01:06:40.940 People need food.
01:06:42.360 They need water.
01:06:43.760 There are mucking out homes right now.
01:06:46.000 A lot of the areas have been flooded very badly in the Midwest.
01:06:50.040 But the trail, the devastation of destruction is really what's the worst right now on the ground.
01:06:56.560 We have Team Rubicon working real hard.
01:06:58.780 A lot of our veterans that volunteer their time through Team Rubicon, they're deployed all over the Midwest right now.
01:07:04.480 And they're responding.
01:07:05.720 For people who don't know what Team Rubicon is, this is the greatest charity.
01:07:09.280 It is, they're all veterans.
01:07:12.400 And these veterans, you know, they come home and they feel like they're not making a difference.
01:07:16.660 And they want to make a difference.
01:07:18.560 And Team Rubicon is usually the first on the ground and they're the last to leave.
01:07:22.860 There's a lot of people still on the ground with Team Rubicon, with Hurricane Harvey still rebuilding homes.
01:07:28.680 It's amazing.
01:07:29.360 And so they come in and the first thing they do is muck out homes.
01:07:33.680 And if you've never had to do that, it's an awful experience to do it for somebody else's house.
01:07:40.060 I can't even imagine doing it for your own house.
01:07:42.800 But Team Rubicon is great.
01:07:45.280 Operation Blessing is there.
01:07:46.740 They're really food and disaster relief kind of stuff, right?
01:07:50.360 They are food, disaster relief.
01:07:52.220 They actually are a volunteer organization as well.
01:07:55.060 So they go in with people and they work through some of the local churches there.
01:07:58.920 And they try to lift people up in a time of crisis.
01:08:02.080 And you can imagine a lot of trauma.
01:08:04.220 Minuteman disaster relief and city impact.
01:08:06.660 What Mercury One does is we give 100% of whatever we collect to these charities.
01:08:14.640 We've vetted these charities.
01:08:16.120 We've worked with these charities.
01:08:17.480 We know that this is actually your money is going to the right place.
01:08:22.420 Nothing against the Red Cross, but, you know, you're funding sometimes their phone system when you give to the Red Cross.
01:08:30.360 This we know 100% goes to these impact.
01:08:33.900 And you can go to natural disasters if you want to just fund natural disasters.
01:08:39.940 We know that that money will go right directly to the people and not to some big institution.
01:08:47.260 And so we really need your help.
01:08:48.960 You can go to mercuryone.org.
01:08:50.900 Donate to our humanitarian relief fund.
01:08:53.340 Did you see also, Suzanne, there was a story that came out today that says, here it is,
01:08:59.660 genocide of Christians reaches an alarming stage.
01:09:05.120 Christian persecution is now, quote, at near genocide levels.
01:09:09.620 This according to a report in the BBC, a lengthy interim study ordered by the British former secretary, blah, blah, blah, says one in three people around the world suffer from religious persecution,
01:09:22.880 with Christians being the most persecuted religious group.
01:09:27.560 That's crazy.
01:09:28.680 It is unfortunately the truth.
01:09:30.520 It is happening all around the world.
01:09:31.960 They're saying that nobody is talking about it and they're not talking about it for politically correct reasons.
01:09:38.840 And so.
01:09:39.480 Which is the wrong reasons.
01:09:40.480 Exactly.
01:09:40.900 This is when you do stand up and take a stand.
01:09:44.060 That's exactly right.
01:09:44.920 And I know we're doing a lot around the world on Christian persecution.
01:09:50.220 You can get involved on that at mercuryone.org.
01:09:53.060 And one last thing.
01:09:55.080 We do these pop-up museums.
01:09:57.580 And the collection at Mercury One has grown is quite an amazing collection already.
01:10:05.320 And it's about to get even bigger as we move forward.
01:10:09.120 But we're also partnering with other museums.
01:10:12.140 The African-American Museum in Dallas, the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, the Frontiers of Flight Museum, the Dallas Historical Society, the Old Red Museum, blah, blah, blah.
01:10:24.460 And we are we've we've partnered with them to put together something called 12 score and three years ago based on Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address four score and seven years ago.
01:10:35.700 So it's now been 12 score and three years ago that our founders got together and said, hey, we have an idea for a country.
01:10:44.000 And Lincoln had a goal.
01:10:46.560 And Lincoln's goal was, can we actually do all men are created equal?
01:10:51.680 Can we free slaves?
01:10:53.800 It's been a fascinating journey.
01:10:55.900 And many people will focus on the really bad things about slavery or they will take it out of context.
01:11:03.480 It's important that context is is put in around slavery.
01:11:08.920 So you really, truly understand what was going on and how it affects us today.
01:11:14.020 But also those who did something with their freedom, those who said, I'm not going to sit around.
01:11:21.900 I'm free now.
01:11:23.660 What am I going to do with it?
01:11:26.280 We look at the Gettysburg Address will be here.
01:11:29.520 The Emancipation Proclamation coming.
01:11:32.460 That's amazing stuff that you will be able to see 12 score and three years ago.
01:11:37.760 The unfinished promise promise of unity.
01:11:41.380 And when does that happen?
01:11:43.020 So it's going to happen on the 29th and 30th of June.
01:11:46.000 And then we'll be also here the 4th through the 7th.
01:11:48.880 So come spend your 4th of July weekend with us.
01:11:51.800 They can go on a tour with you, too, Glenn.
01:11:53.540 I know.
01:11:54.180 David Barton is going to be giving tours.
01:11:56.280 I'm going to be giving tours.
01:11:57.880 Stu will give his usual crappy tour where he really doesn't know anything.
01:12:01.440 I'm just saying, if you don't want your kids to learn anything, you just want to have fun, we all want a Stu tour.
01:12:06.680 That's what I do.
01:12:09.380 But anyway, grab your tickets now.
01:12:10.940 You can get them at mercuryone.org.
01:12:14.340 And just look for 12 score and three years ago.
01:12:17.100 And come see us as we open up the studios again this year for a really fantastic look at American history and the promise of unity that has not been fulfilled yet.
01:12:31.280 And what we have done in the past and what we need to do in the future going forward.
01:12:37.300 Thank you so much, Suzanne.
01:12:38.280 I appreciate it.
01:12:38.920 You're welcome.
01:12:39.860 All of this can be found at mercuryone.org.
01:12:43.380 And by the way, if you don't have any money that you can donate, that's okay.
01:12:49.180 We will take your prayers.
01:12:51.140 The prayers for all those who are affected and all those who are going out trying to heal those communities.
01:12:57.880 We could really use your prayers.
01:12:59.980 All right.
01:13:00.540 Patriot Mobile is our sponsor this half hour.
01:13:03.880 Patriot.
01:13:04.920 I'm sorry.
01:13:05.600 It's what?
01:13:06.180 SimpliSafe?
01:13:06.860 Okay.
01:13:07.260 SimpliSafe.com is our sponsor.
01:13:10.980 And SimpliSafe is a great alarm system for your home.
01:13:17.920 SimpliSafe will keep your home protected the smart way.
01:13:22.680 Now, this was an amazing company that I think had five employees a few years ago, 10 years ago when they first started with us.
01:13:31.040 Now, they are changing the industry.
01:13:34.300 I think they're one of the largest security companies out there now.
01:13:41.140 They're just changing everything.
01:13:43.380 There's no contracts.
01:13:44.900 There's no wiring of anything.
01:13:46.520 This is not a gimmicky device.
01:13:48.140 In fact, they've just upgraded to now.
01:13:50.400 They'll give you.
01:13:51.040 I think it's.
01:13:51.700 Are they still doing it?
01:13:52.420 Yeah.
01:13:52.580 You get a free security camera when you order now.
01:13:56.000 Those security cameras are really important because.
01:13:58.560 And I didn't know this when you call when your alarm system goes off and it calls 9-1-1, your home goes to the bottom of the 9-1-1 calls.
01:14:08.260 Okay.
01:14:08.680 Because it's automated and it's usually just something has triggered it.
01:14:12.700 However, with SimpliSafe, they can verify that somebody has tried to break in or is breaking in and they have the photographic evidence.
01:14:20.940 And because they have that photographic evidence, SimpliSafe is the only security company that puts you on the same footing as IBM.
01:14:30.920 Because when IBM has a break in, they have somebody that's monitoring the cameras and they say, yes, we see the person.
01:14:37.060 And they go to the top of the 9-1-1 call.
01:14:40.280 Now your house will go to the top of the 9-1-1 call.
01:14:44.960 SimpliSafe is the only company that is offering this.
01:14:49.520 SimpliSafeBeck.com.
01:14:50.560 Go there right now.
01:14:51.680 You'll get a free security camera when you order.
01:14:53.880 It's $100 value.
01:14:55.280 You'll have eyes on your home 24-7.
01:14:57.380 Video evidence if somebody tries to get in.
01:14:59.780 Get the free security camera now at SimpliSafeBeck.com.
01:15:04.080 That's SimpliSafeBeck.com.
01:15:07.120 There is a real change that happened over in Europe.
01:15:12.840 If you look at it country by country, Angela Merkel's middle-of-the-road governing coalition
01:15:19.140 lost significant ground.
01:15:21.320 She's holding on.
01:15:22.260 She says she's going to hold on until, I think, 2021.
01:15:26.360 But that's to be seen.
01:15:29.240 The Green Party surged and the far right made some modest gains.
01:15:34.780 In France, it was the far right that surged and handed President Macron a massive defeat.
01:15:43.400 France is in trouble.
01:15:45.140 France is in real trouble.
01:15:46.240 United Kingdom, the two long-dominant parties took a hammering, while the new anti-EU party,
01:15:54.660 the Brexit party, won the biggest share.
01:15:57.440 Would you say 30 more seats?
01:15:59.900 I think it was 31.5% of the vote.
01:16:02.040 So they're the biggest.
01:16:02.880 That's crazy.
01:16:03.580 They did not exist six weeks ago.
01:16:07.380 How insane is that?
01:16:08.980 The Interior Minister of Italy, his far right party, won the Italian vote, quadrupled their
01:16:17.940 representation.
01:16:19.900 In fact, he, now the Prime Minister, said, Italy's not going to change an awful lot, but
01:16:25.260 the EU begins to change tomorrow because of the vote in Italy.
01:16:29.500 The Socialist has always won in Spain.
01:16:32.000 In Poland, it was the right-wing party that was the big winner.
01:16:38.040 Romania, the National Coalition, lost ground there.
01:16:42.400 In the Netherlands, Gert Wielder's, his right-wing populist, lost all four seats that they did
01:16:48.920 hold.
01:16:49.740 It was the center-left that pulled off a surprise victory.
01:16:53.180 A lot of these were real surprises.
01:16:55.000 In Belgium, the extreme-right anti-immigrant party made a massive surge in Dutch-speaking
01:17:05.000 Flanders, while Greens made new inroads in Brussels.
01:17:11.680 The good thing is, when you have parties who are kind of in the extreme in Europe, they
01:17:14.760 never wind up fighting with each other.
01:17:16.240 No, the Socialists and the Fascists, they never fight.
01:17:19.160 Nice relationship they usually have.
01:17:23.760 Let's see.
01:17:24.480 Portugal, almost nobody showed up.
01:17:29.320 It was historic low turnout in Portugal, and the Socialists, who have been governing, continue
01:17:36.460 to govern there.
01:17:37.420 Yeah, that was one of the things that they said about these elections.
01:17:39.860 Basically, it's a way for these countries to kind of give their state of affairs how they
01:17:43.640 feel without having to feel massive repercussions from it, because they don't have as much control
01:17:48.260 over their daily lives.
01:17:49.240 So they wind up turning out a lot more, a lot differently than the national elections go.
01:17:54.480 So the populist Euroskeptics in Finland, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Denmark, Austria, all kind of surged.
01:18:05.560 Ireland, still counting their votes.
01:18:10.140 Seven, eight.
01:18:14.400 What Europe said last week was interesting.
01:18:21.440 There was a surge with socialism, but there was a bigger surge with nationalism and anti-EU.
01:18:32.760 And I think that's the one thing that no politician is really paying attention to.
01:18:39.480 They're all looking to socialism, but they're not paying attention to what people are actually
01:18:44.400 feeling.
01:18:45.160 How can so much of the country and so much of the world feel so differently than perhaps
01:18:57.920 you do?
01:19:00.180 Well, first of all, they don't necessarily feel differently than you do.
01:19:04.880 We're being made to believe that we have huge differences where I don't think we actually
01:19:11.660 do.
01:19:12.700 And I want to start with the abortion debate and then what Gillette has just put out a new
01:19:19.640 a new razor commercial.
01:19:22.680 And you're going to learn a lot, America, on how we should be.
01:19:27.180 That's coming up in one minute.
01:19:32.420 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:19:34.640 So consumer advocates are raising the alert about a Social Security imposter scam.
01:19:40.560 Scammers are using technology to spoof your caller ID, making it look like the Social Security
01:19:47.140 Administration is calling.
01:19:49.500 Then they warn you that your Social Security number has been suspended because of suspicious
01:19:53.440 activity or it's been used in a crime.
01:19:55.800 And so this has led 76,000 people to complain about the Social Security imposters because
01:20:04.900 what they're doing is they're saying, can you verify your Social Security number?
01:20:09.060 Just go ahead and read it back to me.
01:20:11.000 Don't do that.
01:20:12.460 No, no.
01:20:12.840 They should have your Social Security number.
01:20:15.520 Anyway, the cybercrime is on the rise and LifeLock stands against it.
01:20:20.800 They detect a wide range of identity thefts like your Social Security number.
01:20:25.660 They're being on sale at the dark web.
01:20:28.260 And they have a U.S. restoration-based specialist that is going to fix this with you.
01:20:34.760 Do everything they can.
01:20:36.280 And that's really, to me, that's where the rubber hits the road.
01:20:40.120 Calling me up and saying, hey, somebody stole your ID.
01:20:42.580 Well, that doesn't help me.
01:20:44.260 Somebody's saying, hey, somebody stole your identity.
01:20:46.540 And we're going to put a specialist on it to fix it.
01:20:50.140 That means something.
01:20:51.760 That's what LifeLock does.
01:20:53.480 Nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses.
01:20:57.560 But they can see the threats that you might miss on your own.

01:21:22.160 You know, what happened in the elections last week in Europe took a lot of people by surprise.
01:21:30.600 And it took people by surprise exactly the same way the Donald Trump win took people by surprise.
01:21:38.040 And it shouldn't.
01:21:40.080 Because what the EU is, is an artificial entity.
01:21:43.940 It was an entity that was maybe started with good intentions.
01:21:47.820 It was started because after World War II, they were like, okay, these countries, it's, you know, Belgium.
01:21:53.680 You're not really even a country or a Waffle House at best.
01:21:57.360 Uh, and, you know, we're just going to put you into one group.
01:22:01.960 Well, the Belgians are like, yeah, we do make waffles, but we also do a couple of other things that are really cool.
01:22:07.580 And, uh, the EU was starting to erase those things and starting to call people names.
01:22:15.240 You're a racist if you were a proud Belgium.
01:22:18.420 You were a racist if you were proud of your Swedish flag.
01:22:22.420 Well, that has nothing to do with racism.
01:22:24.600 And this is by erasing and folding everybody into this artificial EU.
01:22:33.160 People started to push back on it.
01:22:35.400 That doesn't mean that they hate France or hate Italy.
01:22:39.240 It means that they're proud of who they are.
01:22:42.300 And they don't like this artificial argument.
01:22:46.880 That they're racist.
01:22:49.780 That's only making things worse.
01:22:52.640 No, we just don't want to be controlled by a foreign body.
01:22:56.680 We don't want the Germans telling us in France what to think or do.
01:23:00.880 We're different.
01:23:02.240 Doesn't mean we hate Germany.
01:23:03.560 But because it's been set up this way and because the media and everybody else has been been saying, well, you're a racist if you believe this.
01:23:12.700 The Bubba effect is coming into play in Europe.
01:23:17.840 The Bubba effect is is really happening.
01:23:21.040 And you can see it in things like Nazis punching Nazis.
01:23:26.260 We all know punching Nazis.
01:23:27.840 Punching anybody is wrong.
01:23:29.840 Yeah, but you don't get that reaction from the left because they say, well, you know, punching someone.
01:23:34.100 I mean, look, the Nazis deserved it.
01:23:36.040 Sure, punching people is wrong, but, you know, they deserved it.
01:23:39.360 And someone needed to stand up and you're not going to step in and tell us we can't do that.
01:23:43.280 And that is the effect that's, you know, it's been long rumored that it would happen to somewhere, you know, in some southern, you know, city.
01:23:50.560 And after some effect, a bunch of racists would would be involved in it.
01:23:56.180 And it's been the opposite.
01:23:58.460 It's been in, you know, San Francisco where you're seeing it happen.
01:24:02.540 But the point is, like, people get to that level where they don't care anymore.
01:24:06.860 And they know they know that, for instance, are Nazis a problem?
01:24:11.500 Yeah.
01:24:12.660 Are Nazis really one of the biggest problems in the United States?
01:24:16.260 No.
01:24:16.620 There's a rally scheduled this this week weekend in for the KKK.
01:24:21.380 It was headlines everywhere.
01:24:23.580 It's like I thought it was in Dayton.
01:24:26.560 I thought it was in Ohio someplace like nine people, nine people, nine.
01:24:30.540 How endless coverage previewing an event where nine people show up.
01:24:37.040 Now, there should be zero people.
01:24:38.500 We all realize that.
01:24:39.660 But you can't account for stupidity that much.
01:24:42.420 I mean, like, you can't be able to find, you know, there are racists.
01:24:45.260 There are always be racists.
01:24:47.020 There are always be racists.
01:24:48.800 And we do.
01:24:49.520 We like them.
01:24:50.140 No, we don't.
01:24:50.980 But we don't blow it out of proportion.
01:24:52.840 And that's what everything that's everything right now.
01:24:56.220 Everything is blown out of proportion.
01:24:58.320 And what happened in Europe is happening here and is going to continue to happen on a bigger and bigger scale until we either get it or destroy ourselves.
01:25:07.780 Let's take abortion.
01:25:12.200 Where are most people on abortion?
01:25:15.440 Most people are.
01:25:17.120 Look, I mean, I don't want to if there's rape or incest, I don't.
01:25:23.000 I guess it's a baby.
01:25:25.240 I don't want to even think of it that way.
01:25:27.200 But most people, and I'm giving the benefit of the doubt on this, because I don't think this is most people, but it's close.
01:25:34.960 But I'm going to throw the scale in their favor.
01:25:38.420 Most people are safe, rare, and legal.
01:25:42.360 That's where most people are.
01:25:43.700 And legal for a short period of time.
01:25:45.460 Short period of time.
01:25:47.020 Short period of time.
01:25:48.420 When, you know, when you're into 25 weeks, dude, you've already carried the baby.
01:25:54.640 What kind of scars are you?
01:25:55.940 I mean, hello?
01:25:57.780 What are you talking about?
01:25:59.940 So if you were raped or there was incest and, you know, that's where most people are.
01:26:07.560 That's not where, that's where I want to be.
01:26:12.280 But it's not really where I think I am.
01:26:16.220 Life is life.
01:26:18.540 And I'm changing on that.
01:26:20.500 And people are changing.
01:26:21.780 And if you have, when you stop changing, you're dead.
01:26:27.240 You're either dead physically or you're dead mentally.
01:26:30.820 If you're not changing, if your views aren't evolving someplace and you're dead, why get up in the morning?
01:26:39.360 You're not learning anything new.
01:26:41.740 So the problem is, is that just like the EU, you are either in the EU and for the EU or you're a racist.
01:26:53.460 That's not true.
01:26:55.860 That is not true.
01:26:57.420 And people have had enough of it.
01:27:00.540 And it's not going to end in a good way when it comes to abortion.
01:27:05.520 You either hate women or you're for whatever the latest is, right before birth, right after birth, two years after birth.
01:27:17.000 You're either for that or you hate women.
01:27:21.840 It's not true.
01:27:23.940 And here's why it's effective for the left, because they always make it about that one person.
01:27:32.120 They make it about a story.
01:27:33.540 For instance, does anybody think giving your kids access to gender and hormone treatment is a good thing as a parent?
01:27:48.580 Does anybody think that?
01:27:51.000 Now, what they want to do after they went, your brain stops developing.
01:27:56.880 You're fully developed, I think, at 24.
01:27:59.380 Or, you know, legally, 18, okay, you're on your own, you can do your own thing, whatever.
01:28:07.500 But I would caution that you don't do anything when you're a kid that lasts forever.
01:28:12.660 We don't let our kids go into a tattoo parlor, you know, at five or six or eight.
01:28:19.360 Why?
01:28:19.800 Why?
01:28:23.000 Because it's permanent.
01:28:26.240 Don't make any permanent decision.
01:28:28.620 Don't let your kids get married at nine.
01:28:31.020 Why?
01:28:31.880 It's not about sex.
01:28:32.840 It's about they're not fully developed.
01:28:35.800 They can't make that decision.
01:28:37.880 Now, here's Gillette framing gender therapy in a completely different way.
01:28:48.740 And they when they do this, how do you argue?
01:28:54.520 Here's yes, the sexist razor company trying to show you just how evil you are.
01:29:03.340 Listen.
01:29:04.600 Growing up, I was always trying to figure out what kind of man I wanted to become.
01:29:07.680 And I'm still trying to figure out what kind of man that I want to become.
01:29:11.000 I always knew I was different.
01:29:12.840 I didn't know that there was a term for the type of person that I was.
01:29:17.160 I went into my transition just wanting to be happy.
01:29:21.340 I'm glad I'm at the point where I'm able to shave.
01:29:24.900 South, south, north, north, east, west, never in a hurry.
01:29:32.160 Right.
01:29:33.280 One.
01:29:36.000 Now, don't be scared.
01:29:37.480 Don't be scared.
01:29:38.940 That's his problem.
01:29:39.400 Shaving is about being confident.
01:29:41.540 Oh, you're doing fine.
01:29:43.300 You are doing fine.
01:29:45.820 I'm at the point in my manhood where I'm actually happy.
01:29:49.000 It's not just myself transitioning.
01:29:51.160 It's everybody around me transitioning.
01:29:55.660 Whenever, wherever, however it happens, your first shave is special.
01:30:01.960 Gillette.
01:30:02.920 The best a man can get.
01:30:05.120 Now, how do you argue about that?
01:30:08.100 You see that.
01:30:10.600 And if you say, wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:30:12.260 Can we not jam transgenderism down everybody's throat?
01:30:16.360 You're immediately a hater.
01:30:18.100 Why?
01:30:18.980 Well, the feeling of that is nice, right?
01:30:20.980 It's a dad and it's a kid and they're having a nice moment.
01:30:24.160 And, you know, how can you fight against that?
01:30:27.320 So I read this story.
01:30:28.780 I didn't see.
01:30:29.340 That's the first time I've seen the commercial.
01:30:31.080 But I read the story.
01:30:32.160 And when I read the story, it was an anti-Gillette stance.
01:30:37.900 Okay.
01:30:38.360 But as I read the story and I read the transcript, they're selling love.
01:30:42.960 That's what they're selling.
01:30:44.680 They're selling love.
01:30:46.880 Just like they sold love.
01:30:49.960 Who are you to judge?
01:30:51.680 You're going to stop?
01:30:52.620 This is about love.
01:30:53.720 Love always wins.
01:30:56.280 No.
01:30:57.380 No.
01:30:58.500 Gay marriage was not about love.
01:31:00.940 If it was about love, we should have said the federal government shouldn't have anything to say about anybody's marriage.
01:31:09.460 Because love, if you love a tree and you want to marry a tree, marry a tree.
01:31:14.500 It's not the government's business.
01:31:17.340 But it wasn't about love.
01:31:19.580 It was in some particular cases, it was about love.
01:31:24.420 It was at the individual level in most cases about love.
01:31:29.780 But in the political arena, at the level of the activist, it wasn't.
01:31:40.460 It was about change.
01:31:42.260 Not a change in me.
01:31:44.220 About change in everyone else.
01:31:47.740 It's a change of everyone else.
01:31:50.840 You now must agree with me.
01:31:54.300 So we've just taken, you must agree with me.
01:31:57.940 Gay marriage is wrong.
01:31:59.780 To you must agree with me.
01:32:02.220 Gay marriage is right.
01:32:04.080 Neither of those is good.
01:32:07.560 Because it rules out people being different.
01:32:14.400 I may not hate people who are gay.
01:32:17.860 I may not hate people who are married.
01:32:25.400 But that doesn't mean that I want that in my life.
01:32:30.800 That I want to teach that in my life.
01:32:33.080 It means I'm tolerant of people who are different.
01:32:36.080 But are the people who are different than me tolerant of me?
01:32:39.820 In my particular case, yes.
01:32:44.120 Unless they are politically motivated, yes.
01:32:48.440 Every gay person I personally know, we don't have a problem at all.
01:32:53.760 None.
01:32:55.880 Married.
01:32:56.700 They have children.
01:32:57.780 I don't care.
01:32:59.060 They're my friends.
01:33:00.060 That's the way it is with most Americans.
01:33:05.240 But you are made to feel like you hate.
01:33:10.520 If you're not for abortion in the extreme,
01:33:14.600 you hate women.
01:33:17.000 If you're not for hormone therapy for your 6-year-old, 8-year-old, 15-year-old,
01:33:27.300 you hate people who are different than you.
01:33:29.960 That's not true.
01:33:31.760 That's not true.
01:33:35.540 If you don't agree with them on abortion up until the last minute of birth,
01:33:42.780 you're pro-life, which means you're a hater.
01:33:45.540 And I want to talk to you a little bit about how that has been flipped around on us so much
01:33:52.160 that now people want to be pro-choice, even though they're really not.
01:34:02.020 They're more pro-life than a lot of Republicans.
01:34:06.040 But because this media has made this, has done such an effective job
01:34:11.740 that you, if you are truly pro-life and are willing to say it,
01:34:18.040 you are made to feel completely alone,
01:34:21.240 even though many of those people who are pro-choice
01:34:24.800 may in some cases be more pro-life than even you are.
01:34:31.000 But they fail to recognize it, and they certainly won't admit it.
01:34:41.620 We have a new sponsor this week.
01:34:43.140 It's Omaha Steaks, America's original butcher.
01:34:45.920 I have to tell you, I love Omaha Steaks.

01:36:26.820 10-second station ID.
01:36:28.080 Some of these stories are so bad and just devastating,
01:36:45.460 if you're a parent to listen to.
01:36:47.680 When they go through these transgender procedures early on in life,
01:36:53.020 and this one's actually a little bit later than some of the stories you hear normally,
01:36:56.020 but listen to this story.
01:36:57.000 This is from someone, a parent whose kid went through this.
01:37:00.120 At age 16, my daughter ran away and reported to the Department of Child Services
01:37:03.960 that she felt unsafe living with me because I refused to refer to her using male pronouns
01:37:09.340 or her chosen male name.
01:37:11.400 Although the department investigated and found she was well cared for,
01:37:14.200 they forced me to meet with a trans-identified person to educate me on these issues.
01:37:19.360 Soon after, without my knowledge, a pediatric endocrinologist taught my daughter, a minor,
01:37:25.440 to inject herself with testosterone.
01:37:27.680 Oh my gosh.
01:37:28.480 My daughter then ran away to Oregon, where state law allowed her,
01:37:33.400 at the age of 17 without my knowledge or consent,
01:37:35.780 to change her name and legal gender in court
01:37:38.240 and to undergo a double mastectomy and radical hysterectomy.
01:37:43.500 Oh my gosh.
01:37:44.640 My once beautiful daughter is now 19 years old, homeless, bearded, in extreme poverty,
01:37:51.360 sterilized, not receiving mental health services, extremely mentally ill,
01:37:56.300 and planning a surgical procedure that removes part of her arm
01:38:00.780 to construct a fake male appendage.
01:38:04.580 That is, I mean, how devastating for a parent to go through that,
01:38:12.020 not to mention what's happened to the kid going through that.
01:38:15.860 So is that love?
01:38:18.080 Is that love?
01:38:18.800 Is that the compassionate part of this argument?
01:38:21.940 That doesn't seem like it.
01:38:23.760 And, you know, stuff like this I think is as important as what the left tries to do.
01:38:28.340 It is, because the truth is somewhere in between.
01:38:32.080 The truth is, some people, some people are born differently, okay?
01:38:39.100 And in time, they might want to live another life.
01:38:44.360 Is it healthy to say you're a man when you're really a woman?
01:38:50.600 I don't think so.
01:38:52.340 But I'll have compassion on people like, again, like Caitlyn Jenner.
01:38:56.620 I felt horrible, horrible that this guy that I grew up with was tortured his whole life.
01:39:05.960 That's not compassion either.
01:39:08.680 But just using him politically and saying, oh, beautiful woman,
01:39:15.540 when in reality, he's not a beautiful woman.
01:39:18.540 He's not.
01:39:19.720 Sorry.
01:39:20.700 How dare you?
01:39:21.600 I know.
01:39:21.940 How dare you, sir?
01:39:23.180 So that's not compassion.
01:39:24.520 You know, that's the kind of compassion that gets you on, you know,
01:39:29.020 America's Got Talent when you ain't got no talent.
01:39:31.800 Yeah, right.
01:39:32.480 That's everybody going, oh, no, you are a lovely singer.
01:39:34.820 No, you're not.
01:39:36.100 And Simon's going to say it.
01:39:37.880 There's something, too, about this word, the capitalism always wins type of thing.
01:39:41.440 It's like, hey, we have this really, you know, difficult issue of transgender.
01:39:45.400 Your movement is really important to us.
01:39:47.040 By the way, help us, you know, sell these sharp pieces of metal.
01:39:51.540 I mean, like, I mean, the Gillette thing is so transparent.
01:39:59.000 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:40:02.080 When we come back, we want to, I want to talk a little bit more about this
01:40:05.000 and how we're failing to make the right, the right argument.

01:41:25.580 Welcome to the program.
01:41:29.060 There's been some breaking news from the Supreme Court in the last hour or so.
01:41:33.360 We're going to do our best to wade through this.
01:41:35.980 We think it's both good and bad for pro-life people.
01:41:41.280 The bad part is the Supreme Court decided not to even consider an overturning of a law that was passed by Mike Pence when he was the governor of Indiana
01:41:58.000 that said you cannot abort based on sex.
01:42:04.960 Well, gender.
01:42:07.460 I think disability is in there as well.
01:42:09.860 Disability, which is really remarkably bad.
01:42:12.200 And race, I think, is in there, too.
01:42:14.360 So you can't say, oh, it's a white baby.
01:42:16.620 I don't want a white baby.
01:42:17.720 You can't say, oh, well, they're handicapped, so I don't want a handicapped kid.
01:42:23.240 They've overturned that.
01:42:24.980 So you can do those things, which I don't understand yet.
01:42:30.640 We haven't read.
01:42:31.380 Clarence Thomas concurred with that, but it's a long statement.
01:42:37.560 It's like 25 pages long.
01:42:38.900 So we haven't read it yet, but we will by tomorrow.
01:42:41.480 And I'll have that for you because I don't understand that.
01:42:44.860 Yeah, and they're basically, race, sex, and disability are the three main ones.
01:42:48.160 And they're basically saying they have no opinion on that.
01:42:50.840 They didn't take it up.
01:42:52.780 I think you would have an opinion on that.
01:42:54.440 If you ask the average person, you would have an opinion on that.
01:42:56.660 Yeah, you know, there's complicated reasons why they do these things.
01:42:59.200 I know, I know, I know.
01:43:00.560 And so not necessarily a bad ruling, but you would have wanted a ruling in, you know, you would want them to hold up the law.
01:43:08.600 So that will now have its legal challenges on its own.
01:43:11.520 Now, the Supreme Court did overturn an overturning of the law that Mike Pence did on fetal remains.
01:43:22.500 Yeah, so just to make it understandable, it went the good way for pro-life people on the fetal remains part of the law, which basically says, hey, it's a person, so you kind of have to bury it with all the laws of burying a person, cremate or bury, right?
01:43:37.520 But you can't just, I don't know, you know, sell it for parts or, you know, put it on, you know, whatever they're doing, whatever weird, twisted thing Planned Parenthood is doing these days with the remains.
01:43:49.600 They have to bury it like it's a person.
01:43:51.320 And it's a respectful thing, obviously.
01:43:53.220 They don't want that to happen because they're trying to argue it's not a person.
01:43:57.220 So it went to the Supreme Court.
01:44:00.260 That's a big deal.
01:44:01.040 Yeah, and it's interesting because I think one of the things it does is it puts another burden on Planned Parenthood, right?
01:44:08.600 So if they're having 10,000 abortions at a clinic, they now have to have 10,000 cremations or 10,000 burials.
01:44:16.340 But that's not what they really argued.
01:44:18.200 They didn't argue it was an undue burden, which is one of the reasons why it seemingly went through.
01:44:22.980 So basically the law was, does the government have any reason to look at how people are buried?
01:44:32.980 And they said, yes, they do.
01:44:34.560 And so they upheld the law.
01:44:36.480 So that one I think is good.
01:44:37.620 And I think it is good anytime Planned Parenthood has another burden to deal with.
01:44:42.620 You know, the way they approach that, I kind of wonder, does the federal government have any place?
01:44:48.920 Well, remember, this is state-state.
01:44:50.300 It is a state law.
01:44:51.120 So, you know, so that's a whole other situation.
01:44:54.440 So there's been some good and some bad on that.
01:44:56.740 There's still a few big cases.
01:44:59.200 We can go over this.
01:44:59.700 Maybe we should spend some time on this because we're getting to the end of the session here.
01:45:02.500 We're going to have some of the bigger rulings coming out.
01:45:06.240 You know, there was –
01:45:07.280 Before we move off of abortion, let's just wrap up what we were talking about on abortion and how we are focused on the wrong things.
01:45:16.760 And even people who are really, truly pro-life say they're pro-choice because they don't want to say that they're pro-life.
01:45:29.040 Yeah.
01:45:29.280 And they are viewing it differently.
01:45:31.380 Yeah, a friend of mine was talking about, you know, the pro-choice, pro-life thing.
01:45:35.380 And he says he's pro-choice.
01:45:36.580 And, you know, you investigate these things and you realize that, like, the people even that say that they're pro-choice are so far away from where the debate is actually happening.
01:45:45.120 And certainly so far away from anything the Democratic Party is advocating for these days.
01:45:49.780 You know, he said it was basically the first trimester, which is, you know, kind of where Roe versus Wade was.
01:45:55.140 That's where the ruling initially was, unlimited ability to get an abortion in the first trimester.
01:46:01.460 And he was saying – talking about cognitive abilities and how far along it was.
01:46:07.120 And as you talk to him, you're like, well, what – the position he's describing and what a lot of pro-choice people are describing is something considerably to the right of what most Republicans are trying to do in their states.
01:46:18.960 Most – the typical Republican position – and this is different than the last week or so of debates where people are talking about Alabama going for six weeks.
01:46:29.120 Most Republican states are trying to get a ban on abortion at 20 weeks.
01:46:34.420 20.
01:46:35.500 And what we're talking about here with people who consider themselves pro-choice, they're saying, well, I think that it should be allowed up to 12 weeks or 10 weeks.
01:46:44.020 I mean, the polling on it is really incredible.
01:46:46.840 As we talk about the first trimester, about 60% of Americans think abortion should be legal in some form.
01:46:55.040 And the reason why, I truly believe, is because it's been drilled into our head – rape, incest, I don't want to make that decision, I'm not that person.
01:47:07.720 It is the emotional argument there.
01:47:09.400 Right.
01:47:09.940 And so I think that is the argument of compassion, people think.
01:47:15.620 And it is – it's normal, I think, to be there because you want to say – and it's actually in some ways very American to be there.
01:47:25.840 I'm not in your situation.
01:47:27.720 Right.
01:47:28.180 I don't want to make that call.
01:47:30.020 And that's what people – because it has not been made about life –
01:47:34.100 The left gets all libertarian, aren't you?
01:47:35.860 Yeah.
01:47:36.120 Oh, yeah, we don't want anything to do with our body.
01:47:38.300 I mean, sure, we want to micromanage this type of straw and how much soda you drink every single day.
01:47:44.640 Yeah.
01:47:44.860 But we don't want to be involved in your health decisions.
01:47:47.840 Right.
01:47:48.060 Sure, we want to take over the entire healthcare system.
01:47:50.660 But gosh, you and your doctor, that relationship is so important.
01:47:54.100 Right.
01:47:54.360 It's so insultingly fake.
01:47:56.960 I mean, they don't argue this point on any other issue.
01:47:59.360 But it works for a while.
01:48:02.140 Yeah.
01:48:02.420 It works because if they are there and you keep the argument there, most people are there.
01:48:10.400 If you can do that, yeah.
01:48:12.100 So 60% of people in the first trimester think abortion should be legal.
01:48:16.580 In the second trimester, generally legal or not, only 28%.
01:48:21.460 So you're down to an incredibly unpopular position.
01:48:25.600 So you're an incredibly, you are very much alone if you believe in the second trimester.
01:48:32.300 But the word trimester means there's another trimester that's coming.
01:48:37.800 And you're at 13%.
01:48:39.500 13% of people believe in the stated democratic position, right?
01:48:46.000 That you should be able to have an abortion in the third trimester, generally.
01:48:53.240 That's incredibly terrible.
01:48:56.300 And this is a position, can you believe that they have 24 candidates and they can't find
01:49:00.160 one who's going to side with the 80, I think it's 84 to 13, technically.
01:49:05.500 84% of people who believe third trimester abortion should be illegal.
01:49:10.140 They can't find a person.
01:49:12.480 There's not one of the 22 dozen candidates.
01:49:15.280 You can't find somebody who's going to stand up and say, yeah, by the way, that third trimester
01:49:18.400 thing, that's a little nuts.
01:49:19.740 Nobody.
01:49:20.080 And all they can do is find people who come out and say, well, look, five minutes before
01:49:24.720 birth, yes, it's the woman's choice.
01:49:28.060 For any reason, the woman's choice.
01:49:30.920 That is, I mean, I think a huge problem because number one, people want to describe themselves
01:49:40.760 oddly to me as pro-choice.
01:49:43.560 Even when they're taking positions to the right of where George W. Bush was or where, you know,
01:49:50.360 where most Republican states are, right?
01:49:53.300 Like people want to be able to say that they're pro-choice instead of pro-life.
01:49:57.860 And in a way, it's, it's, I mean, I would not certainly consider someone who's for abortion
01:50:04.160 in the first trimester to be pro-life.
01:50:06.280 But when you look about the scale of debate right now, most of the debates happening in
01:50:10.360 the ninth month of pregnancy where there's supposedly a controversy and isn't.
01:50:14.260 And then the rest of it, people are like, well, okay, 20, 20 weeks, that's a Republican
01:50:18.840 position.
01:50:19.520 Every time that gets trotted out, the media beats on them like they're psychotic.
01:50:24.200 They just want to steal women's ovaries and use them for sport.
01:50:27.520 And it's like, well, that's not what's happening at all.
01:50:29.720 They're a pool with ovaries?
01:50:31.180 Yes.
01:50:31.660 It's fun.
01:50:32.260 Ovary pool?
01:50:33.000 Ovary pool.
01:50:33.480 I figured you'd play before because you're an evil conservative.
01:50:35.900 Right.
01:50:36.080 Yeah.
01:50:36.260 So, I mean, they want to play ovary, ovary billiards.
01:50:39.740 That's one way to go.
01:50:41.160 But in reality, the, the conversation is to the, you know, the reality of the situation
01:50:46.260 is if you could, if you went with all these Republican states and they said 20 weeks, you
01:50:51.180 would get rid of a massive amount of some of the most horrific things we allow as a society.
01:50:59.000 And it would not, you know what, the job wouldn't be done.
01:51:00.800 And people will say, well, it's just a Trojan horse.
01:51:02.360 You're trying to get no more abortion.
01:51:03.720 It's not a Trojan horse.
01:51:04.680 I'm telling you, it's right there.
01:51:06.260 I'm telling you, that's what I'm going for.
01:51:08.600 Absolutely.
01:51:09.360 I consider this, all of these things, a step towards never having another one of these
01:51:13.560 happen.
01:51:13.700 And that's why people will say they're pro-life because they get bogged down.
01:51:19.640 Pro-choice.
01:51:20.280 Pro-choice.
01:51:21.840 Yes.
01:51:22.240 Because they get bogged down in that first six weeks and they'll be like, I, you know,
01:51:27.040 I don't want to make that decision.
01:51:29.300 And the left will say, well, they're just trying to get rid of it all entirely.
01:51:34.460 And they, they're stuck there at that point of compassion.
01:51:38.920 And because they are compassionate, Americans are compassionate people.
01:51:43.040 They will look at people who say, yeah, the night before, yeah, go ahead.
01:51:47.820 Kill the baby the night before.
01:51:48.980 Kill him.
01:51:49.520 Let him die after birth.
01:51:51.880 We tried to kill him and we didn't kill him.
01:51:54.020 We can let him die.
01:51:54.920 What they'll say to themselves is that's not, that's not real.
01:51:58.880 That's not going to happen.
01:51:59.740 Yeah.
01:52:00.020 That's not, it's just that the people aren't going to do that.
01:52:02.540 No, no, no.
01:52:03.060 People are doing that.
01:52:04.440 People are shouting their abortions.
01:52:06.300 People are happy about abortions.
01:52:08.600 And so they live in this safe, but rare kind of world where they're like, it's, it's rare
01:52:15.320 and it should be safe and it should be legal.
01:52:17.360 And so I don't want to be, I don't want to be pro-life because that means, you know, that,
01:52:22.320 that it's all going to be back alley abortions.
01:52:25.520 And so they get stuck there.
01:52:28.560 I, I, that, that point is really, it bothers me because I mean, you're, I've heard people
01:52:33.280 say this before, like, oh, well, look, you're talking about these last minute abortions.
01:52:36.700 There's almost none of these things that happens, like one to 2% of abortions.
01:52:40.960 That's one way of thinking about it.
01:52:42.280 And I bet that way makes you feel good.
01:52:43.940 How about this other way?
01:52:45.000 How many 9-11s are you willing to excuse?
01:52:47.380 Six, seven, eight, 10?
01:52:49.080 Because that's what we're talking about.
01:52:49.960 We're talking about tens of thousands of babies that could be born in weeks that are fully
01:52:55.220 formed in the womb that you're killing.
01:52:57.760 So yeah, you can say one to 2% because that feels a lot better than saying seven or eight
01:53:01.600 9-11s.
01:53:03.040 I mean, it feels a lot better, but let's just say all we did was save the 20,000 kids that
01:53:10.040 were killing within the last few weeks of pregnancy.
01:53:12.420 And by the way, this, there was a big story while you were out, Glenn, the NPR has their
01:53:17.100 language of how you're supposed to talk about abortion.
01:53:18.760 You might've caught a little bit of that.
01:53:20.160 The one thing they did say in there was don't call them rare because we don't know how many
01:53:24.520 of them occur.
01:53:25.760 That's NPR.
01:53:26.880 All of that was all left-wing propaganda except that one point.
01:53:30.080 They said don't call late-term and third-term trimester abortions rare because we don't
01:53:34.440 know if they're rare.
01:53:36.200 So we know we're talking about tens of thousands.
01:53:38.580 We don't know how many there actually are.
01:53:41.620 And even if it was just that, if you could just get off this like little debate thing
01:53:46.060 where you're saying, well, I don't know.
01:53:48.120 Donald Trump seems to not want them, so I want them.
01:53:50.800 If you can get past that sort of thing, you could save tens of thousands of actual children.
01:53:56.540 And wouldn't that be great?
01:53:57.460 And you know what?
01:53:57.860 You can go in front of Congress and say, well, what about these kids that are in cages and
01:54:02.680 the shiny blankets?
01:54:04.360 They aren't being treated as well as we should on the border.
01:54:07.780 That's a great point.
01:54:09.400 Seems secondary to the tens of thousands of kids that are dying.
01:54:13.100 Seems secondary.
01:54:14.460 You know, get rid of that first.
01:54:16.100 Then come talk to me about the color of their blankets.
01:54:21.460 It's the only way you could argue about the color of the blankets because they are children.
01:54:28.800 And and we hear from the left all the time.
01:54:31.820 If we can just save one.
01:54:35.700 It's worth it.
01:54:36.720 So I said in my I said in my old studio chair the other day and wow, was that uncomfortable?
01:54:51.360 I had forgotten.
01:54:52.540 I was like, whoa, what happened to the chair?
01:54:55.220 Then I come in this morning and I sit in my ex chair and I say the same thing.
01:55:00.660 Whoa, what happened?
01:55:02.560 Pat came in.
01:55:03.460 Now, he claims he didn't, but somebody did and they adjusted my chair and adjusted ways.
01:55:09.900 I didn't even know it could be adjusted and I had to readjust it.
01:55:13.560 It's like getting into a car.
01:55:14.840 You know, you have to reset it for you.
01:55:17.360 What felt good to Pat was horrible for me.
01:55:20.140 What feels good for me apparently was horrible for Pat, but that's the deal.
01:55:25.800 We're all different and X chair knows that.
01:55:29.140 And so they give you more adjustments than you could put that.
01:55:32.100 I've never seen this many adjustments on an office chair.
01:55:34.840 They are great.
01:55:36.680 They fit you and they make sure that when you get up, you're not like, oh, OK, I got to stand up.

01:56:45.340 Our government is so dispassionate, so anti the wall that the American people have put their own money behind it and hired a construction team to build a secure wall in the El Paso sector.
01:57:04.420 Also, was there one in New Mexico that they're building as well?

01:58:00.260 I don't think so.
01:58:01.560 We watch the economy as the economy goes.
01:58:05.340 So will this next election.
