The Glenn Beck Program - 'Addicted to Outrage' - 4⧸17⧸18

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

00:00:10.180 Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck.

00:00:16.700 Okay, Donald Trump just made the Arab countries in the Middle East an insane proposition.

00:00:22.540 You ready? Because it's just so ridiculous.

00:00:25.300 The goal, the goal he had to ask Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar to, you ready, take responsibility for their own land. 0.52

00:00:40.420 I know, I know, it's crazy, right? I mean, why would you even think that?

00:00:44.960 The Western world has not only assumed the role of Middle Eastern steward for, hmm, exactly 100 years ago this coming November,

00:00:54.580 but we're thinking about going for another 100 years.

00:00:59.660 I welcome this plan.

00:01:02.040 The Trump administration has proposed a plan to the Arab Gulf nations for them to provide funding and troops that would stabilize and patrol Western Syria.

00:01:13.740 Wait a minute. Instead of us being bogged down there?

00:01:18.020 Shut up. 0.95

00:01:19.020 It doesn't just stop there.

00:01:21.800 National Security Advisor John Bolton has also contacted Egypt to ask them to lend their support as well.

00:01:29.380 Now, I don't know if we can continue to look at this,

00:01:33.960 because we might see the beginning of a coalition of nations in the Middle East

00:01:38.940 that actually live in the Middle East.

00:01:42.540 This plan has a long way to go before it bears fruit,

00:01:47.820 and there's a lot of questions to be asked,

00:01:50.020 but the Trump administration is actually looking at options that scale back our ridiculously overstretched military.

00:01:58.180 Our men and women in uniform are exhausted.

00:02:01.740 And you know what?

00:02:02.620 It's time we bring them home.

00:02:04.360 They've been in near constant combat in this region for 17 years.

00:02:11.240 It is well past time for the people that call this region home to take the reins.

00:02:18.020 Since 2011, the Arab nations have been relatively non-existent in the Syrian crisis.

00:02:24.660 They don't care.

00:02:26.180 And I know what you're thinking.

00:02:27.680 They didn't lend a hand militarily,

00:02:30.240 but at least they took care of the refugees, right?

00:02:33.220 No, no, surprising.

00:02:35.180 Again, another shocker, but no.

00:02:39.680 If you leave out Jordan, Iraq, and Lebanon, 0.72

00:02:44.640 everyone else, the Saudis, Qatar, Oman, UAE, Bahrain,

00:02:49.420 they have contributed zero support for the Syrian refugees.

00:02:54.180 Zero.

00:02:55.080 They don't care.

00:02:56.880 So this is where the trouble comes.

00:03:06.940 You think they're going to stand for the Christians? 1.00

00:03:10.420 No.

00:03:11.440 They won't even stand for the Muslims. 1.00

00:03:15.300 But the truth is,

00:03:16.720 the Arab nations have grown comfortable knowing that somebody else is always going to take care of their problems.

00:03:21.260 It's like a person living on, you know, welfare their entire life.

00:03:24.420 Why work when you get something for free?

00:03:28.160 It's high time we broke this hundred-year cycle because it doesn't work.

00:03:33.720 It is time for us to get out,

00:03:36.140 and it is way beyond time that people that live in the Middle East 1.00

00:03:40.020 take responsibility for their own home and neighborhood.

00:03:44.640 It's Tuesday, April 17th.

00:03:53.920 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:55.820 Well, welcome to the program,

00:03:57.160 and let's say hello to Steve Regeer,

00:04:00.520 otherwise known as Stu, our executive producer.

00:04:02.720 Hello, Stu.

00:04:03.300 Glenn, how are you?

00:04:04.160 Very good.

00:04:04.760 Very good.

00:04:05.620 I went to Starbucks this morning.

00:04:08.860 Thank goodness they're all white people there. 0.97

00:04:11.020 You know what I mean?

00:04:11.620 That's the only reason I go to an establishment.

00:04:14.240 I'll tell you that.

00:04:14.920 You know, I was in Starbucks,

00:04:16.300 and I saw the no-coloreds sign,

00:04:18.680 and I thought,

00:04:19.480 You did?

00:04:20.140 Wow, that's...

00:04:21.480 What year were you in Starbucks?

00:04:22.960 It was, you know,

00:04:24.340 you know...

00:04:25.360 Before Starbucks existed, probably?

00:04:26.960 1955.

00:04:28.020 But I thought,

00:04:29.320 Okay, now there's a sign

00:04:30.980 that really, you know,

00:04:34.540 puts the policy of Starbucks

00:04:36.400 right out in the open.

00:04:38.140 No-coloreds allowed here. 1.00

00:04:40.040 I don't remember seeing that sign

00:04:42.000 at all at a Starbucks.

00:04:43.940 You would think there has been

00:04:45.440 that sign someplace.

00:04:46.620 You would,

00:04:47.040 because we're supposed to boycott it now.

00:04:49.820 Hashtag boycott Starbucks

00:04:51.860 is the new thing.

00:04:53.280 Uh-huh.

00:04:53.700 And it's just so...

00:04:56.220 Oh, I got up this morning,

00:04:58.300 and I have to tell you the truth.

00:04:59.340 I got up this morning,

00:05:00.080 and I thought,

00:05:01.020 I am freaking outraged.

00:05:04.440 It has been two days,

00:05:06.380 two days since I have had

00:05:08.740 something new

00:05:09.620 to be outraged about.

00:05:11.500 And I was so outraged

00:05:14.180 that I wasn't outraged,

00:05:16.120 but I'm glad that Starbucks

00:05:18.240 has provided the ability

00:05:20.880 for me to be outraged today.

00:05:22.820 They have,

00:05:23.400 and it all stems

00:05:24.380 from this incident in Philadelphia.

00:05:27.160 Mm-hmm.

00:05:27.860 And what happened was,

00:05:29.500 Yes.

00:05:29.800 two African-American individuals

00:05:31.960 came into a Starbucks right there.

00:05:33.980 You know there's going to be a problem

00:05:34.960 because Starbucks is so racist.

00:05:36.480 Well, every,

00:05:37.340 I was going to say,

00:05:38.080 every joke starts with two guys

00:05:39.940 walking into a Starbucks.

00:05:41.420 But this is no joke.

00:05:43.140 Don't laugh.

00:05:44.200 So they go in,

00:05:44.920 and they say they want to use the bathroom.

00:05:46.800 Yes.

00:05:47.560 And the person,

00:05:49.040 Uh-huh.

00:05:49.920 Shirley White,

00:05:51.140 worked at Starbucks,

00:05:52.320 reminded them that their policy was

00:05:54.260 that they were not allowed

00:05:55.400 to use the bathroom.

00:05:56.740 All right.

00:05:57.180 No coloreds. 1.00

00:05:58.660 No, no,

00:05:59.160 not because they're black,

00:06:00.140 but because they hadn't purchased anything.

00:06:01.920 They had this idea

00:06:03.000 that only paying customers

00:06:04.600 would be able to use the restroom. 1.00

00:06:06.300 Oh, man,

00:06:06.800 I got to tell you this.

00:06:08.060 That never happens

00:06:09.380 in the places

00:06:10.480 where white people go.

00:06:11.980 No.

00:06:12.580 You know what I mean?

00:06:13.520 I walk into any establishment

00:06:15.560 anywhere,

00:06:16.380 and I say,

00:06:17.680 Hey,

00:06:17.840 I need to use your bathroom.

00:06:19.120 And they say,

00:06:20.040 Oh, you're white. 0.99

00:06:20.880 It's right over there, sir.

00:06:22.080 Yes.

00:06:22.520 That is the...

00:06:23.420 Every time.

00:06:23.960 That's the way it works for us whiteys.

00:06:25.680 Yes, it does.

00:06:26.760 So they,

00:06:27.540 uh,

00:06:28.020 they,

00:06:28.900 they're not happy with that.

00:06:29.960 They decide to,

00:06:30.700 uh,

00:06:30.940 after they go to the bathroom,

00:06:31.980 which I,

00:06:32.440 it seems like they actually did go to the bathroom,

00:06:34.600 um,

00:06:35.760 in the,

00:06:36.580 in the restaurant,

00:06:37.240 in the actual bathroom.

00:06:38.300 Wait,

00:06:38.500 in the restroom,

00:06:40.020 not in the restaurant.

00:06:40.600 Not in the floor.

00:06:40.920 Okay,

00:06:41.020 yes.

00:06:41.360 Uh,

00:06:41.520 and then they came back out

00:06:42.300 and they sat down

00:06:42.920 and said they were going to wait for a friend.

00:06:44.360 Now,

00:06:44.440 they did not purchase anything.

00:06:45.680 Oh,

00:06:45.840 boy.

00:06:46.140 Now,

00:06:46.320 if you've ever been to a Starbucks or another...

00:06:49.060 You know how,

00:06:49.900 how they have a two pricing system.

00:06:53.040 One that is outrageous

00:06:54.500 for any kind of minority

00:06:56.460 and so cheap

00:06:58.520 that you could buy something for a dollar

00:07:00.980 and then just sit there

00:07:03.240 and be legitimate.

00:07:04.340 But that's only for white people. 0.64

00:07:06.140 No.

00:07:06.740 For,

00:07:07.320 for,

00:07:07.900 for any minority,

00:07:09.740 sometimes these people have to take out loans.

00:07:12.120 It's $10,000 for a cup of coffee.

00:07:14.480 Not,

00:07:15.000 no.

00:07:15.620 Uh,

00:07:15.880 same price for everyone.

00:07:17.080 Wait a minute.

00:07:17.480 Um,

00:07:17.680 but they decided they didn't want to pay any price

00:07:19.260 for anything.

00:07:19.920 Hang on,

00:07:20.280 we're talking Starbucks here.

00:07:21.680 We are.

00:07:22.500 Huh.

00:07:22.800 The racist Starbucks

00:07:23.780 with this long,

00:07:25.120 uh,

00:07:26.420 swirling history of racism.

00:07:28.460 Yes.

00:07:28.780 This deep,

00:07:29.340 uh,

00:07:30.180 just,

00:07:30.620 I mean,

00:07:30.920 look,

00:07:31.220 they're known.

00:07:32.200 They were,

00:07:32.400 it used to be,

00:07:33.000 the Starbucks used to have three K's in it.

00:07:34.700 I'll tell you that much.

00:07:35.480 Wow.

00:07:35.800 It used to have three K's in it.

00:07:36.980 I remember the day.

00:07:38.020 They changed that to hide it.

00:07:38.500 All the baristas had hoods. 1.00

00:07:40.840 So,

00:07:41.640 the guy,

00:07:41.980 the guy sit down,

00:07:42.740 they say they're waiting for a friend.

00:07:43.760 Mm-hmm.

00:07:44.180 The,

00:07:44.520 the people at the restaurant

00:07:45.820 who have told them

00:07:46.620 they were not allowed to go to the bathroom

00:07:47.740 and were not allowed to sit down

00:07:48.880 unless they purchased something,

00:07:50.320 uh,

00:07:50.740 call the police.

00:07:52.180 Now,

00:07:52.540 the police come

00:07:54.180 and handcuff the guys

00:07:55.540 and remove them.

00:07:56.520 At about that time,

00:07:57.700 their friend actually shows up.

00:07:59.180 Mm-hmm.

00:08:00.060 So,

00:08:00.940 the,

00:08:01.040 I hope an attorney,

00:08:02.400 no,

00:08:02.840 no,

00:08:03.100 I don't hope,

00:08:04.840 Al Sharpton.

00:08:05.800 I hope it was Al Sharpton

00:08:07.560 that showed up

00:08:08.300 and saw

00:08:09.180 this

00:08:10.180 travesty.

00:08:11.860 Now,

00:08:12.200 what has resulted from this incident

00:08:13.520 is hashtag boycott Starbucks.

00:08:16.220 Uh-huh.

00:08:16.700 And someone,

00:08:17.920 a great photo

00:08:19.000 of this Starbucks

00:08:20.500 with a,

00:08:20.940 with a protester

00:08:21.760 in line

00:08:22.500 at the Starbucks

00:08:23.140 with a megaphone

00:08:24.140 in the face

00:08:24.860 of an employee

00:08:25.500 screaming at the employee

00:08:27.260 who is standing there

00:08:28.400 straight-faced,

00:08:29.560 uh,

00:08:30.200 behind the counter

00:08:31.020 with,

00:08:32.100 having absolutely nothing

00:08:34.080 to do with this incident.

00:08:35.340 Surely,

00:08:35.800 he's just trying to sell people,

00:08:37.320 uh,

00:08:37.860 lattes.

00:08:38.300 You know,

00:08:38.920 you try to make this sound

00:08:40.540 like the baristas 0.99

00:08:41.980 are just these innocent people

00:08:44.020 that are just going up

00:08:45.080 every day to do their job.

00:08:46.940 When you know darn well

00:08:48.560 they are some of the most racist,

00:08:50.680 uh,

00:08:51.700 organizers

00:08:52.840 of all of the Klan.

00:08:56.100 You know that.

00:08:57.840 Okay,

00:08:58.020 right,

00:08:58.300 I know that.

00:08:58.980 Of course.

00:09:01.140 So,

00:09:01.620 so now

00:09:03.320 we,

00:09:03.760 we step back here

00:09:04.580 and look at this incident

00:09:05.360 for a moment

00:09:06.280 if we may,

00:09:06.920 if we must.

00:09:07.800 All right.

00:09:07.980 Because I have a,

00:09:08.620 we have a store

00:09:09.380 that,

00:09:10.060 that claims

00:09:11.620 they don't hang up signs

00:09:13.060 that say

00:09:13.640 coloreds only,

00:09:14.920 uh,

00:09:15.480 or coloreds,

00:09:16.360 uh,

00:09:16.580 no bathroom for coloreds. 0.98

00:09:18.220 Uh,

00:09:18.700 we have a,

00:09:19.740 we have a story here

00:09:20.860 that is trying to say

00:09:22.060 that

00:09:22.340 they don't allow

00:09:25.800 whites

00:09:26.520 to use the restroom

00:09:27.600 if they,

00:09:28.240 if they,

00:09:28.820 uh,

00:09:29.040 don't purchase anything.

00:09:30.020 They're trying to tell us

00:09:31.160 that there's no two

00:09:32.440 pricing system,

00:09:34.380 one for minorities,

00:09:35.660 one for whites. 0.53

00:09:36.620 And now you're,

00:09:37.840 now remember

00:09:38.560 we're,

00:09:39.120 we're pretending here

00:09:40.160 that all the baristas

00:09:41.160 aren't,

00:09:42.320 you know,

00:09:43.020 are not organizers

00:09:44.300 for the Klan.

00:09:45.240 Right.

00:09:45.580 Okay.

00:09:45.820 So we've,

00:09:46.220 now we've established

00:09:47.040 all these crazy lines

00:09:48.160 I've come up with.

00:09:49.040 Right.

00:09:49.960 We could talk about this.

00:09:53.760 Boycotting Starbucks,

00:09:55.240 yelling at them.

00:09:56.240 Start here.

00:09:57.300 Let's say

00:09:57.880 there was an employee

00:09:59.260 at Starbucks

00:09:59.820 who was racist.

00:10:01.620 Okay.

00:10:02.360 And they came out

00:10:03.280 and they said,

00:10:03.780 sir or madam,

00:10:05.320 you must be removed

00:10:06.900 from this restaurant

00:10:07.560 because you're black

00:10:08.500 and I'm going to call

00:10:10.300 the police

00:10:10.720 and have them come

00:10:11.300 handcuff you

00:10:11.880 because I don't want

00:10:12.640 black people

00:10:13.060 in my restaurant.

00:10:14.540 What,

00:10:15.040 what,

00:10:15.200 what should be

00:10:16.040 the response to that?

00:10:17.900 The employee

00:10:18.920 should absolutely

00:10:19.940 be fired.

00:10:20.900 Sure.

00:10:21.120 Probably breaking

00:10:21.980 multiple laws

00:10:23.100 as well.

00:10:23.920 Yeah.

00:10:24.120 Mr. Starbucks

00:10:24.800 would be pissed

00:10:25.680 because he's a progressive.

00:10:27.520 Right.

00:10:27.720 He's a,

00:10:28.220 he's very much

00:10:28.760 a progressive.

00:10:29.320 Yes.

00:10:29.820 But let's just say

00:10:31.460 it was this person

00:10:32.300 was racist. 0.59

00:10:32.980 Would this mean

00:10:33.880 that you should

00:10:34.320 boycott Starbucks?

00:10:35.900 Can we start there?

00:10:37.080 Because the way

00:10:37.740 you started this

00:10:38.220 I think is the perfect way.

00:10:39.380 Are we addicted

00:10:40.520 to outrage?

00:10:41.860 Yes,

00:10:42.120 we are.

00:10:42.600 Are we addicted

00:10:43.380 to outrage?

00:10:43.880 Because we

00:10:44.540 stand here

00:10:46.200 and we look

00:10:47.580 at a story

00:10:48.400 like this

00:10:48.920 and our immediate

00:10:50.220 idea is to

00:10:51.180 act as if

00:10:52.540 this is the entire

00:10:53.980 corporate policy

00:10:55.340 that Starbucks

00:10:56.920 they're having

00:10:57.560 meetings in Seattle

00:10:58.800 of all places

00:11:00.120 and they're all

00:11:01.460 deciding what

00:11:02.280 we're going to do

00:11:03.620 is call the police

00:11:04.840 on black people

00:11:05.740 who want to use

00:11:06.280 the restroom.

00:11:07.720 We all,

00:11:08.480 even if it was

00:11:09.720 a case

00:11:10.320 in which there was

00:11:11.180 a hood wearing

00:11:12.380 employee that they

00:11:13.760 had hired

00:11:14.220 that was trying

00:11:15.080 to discriminate

00:11:15.620 against black people 1.00

00:11:16.520 this obviously

00:11:18.020 is not the

00:11:19.180 corporate policy

00:11:20.460 of Starbucks.

00:11:21.160 there is not

00:11:23.680 a pattern

00:11:24.420 of behavior

00:11:25.460 at Starbucks

00:11:26.860 in which they

00:11:27.440 are constantly

00:11:28.200 in the news

00:11:28.940 for throwing

00:11:30.980 black people

00:11:31.660 out of restaurants.

00:11:32.900 In fact,

00:11:33.800 the exact opposite

00:11:34.780 seems to be

00:11:38.460 the case

00:11:38.880 in which there's

00:11:39.720 this incredibly

00:11:40.440 progressive company

00:11:41.840 that makes all

00:11:42.620 sorts of annoying

00:11:43.700 political stances

00:11:44.600 to make everyone

00:11:45.520 feel good

00:11:46.540 about their

00:11:47.560 lack of

00:11:48.180 prejudice

00:11:49.420 about how

00:11:50.120 wonderfully

00:11:50.740 open-minded

00:11:51.520 they are.

00:11:52.440 That is their

00:11:53.040 actual pattern

00:11:53.940 of behavior.

00:11:55.340 So there is

00:11:55.920 absolutely

00:11:56.820 no reason

00:11:57.880 to boycott

00:11:59.120 this restaurant,

00:12:00.340 to boycott

00:12:00.900 this entire

00:12:02.820 chain of

00:12:04.480 restaurants,

00:12:05.400 and because

00:12:06.280 we are addicted

00:12:07.220 to outrage.

00:12:08.520 It is all

00:12:09.700 about us.

00:12:11.200 We want to

00:12:11.900 think that we're

00:12:12.960 doing something.

00:12:13.860 No, no, no.

00:12:14.220 We want to take

00:12:14.940 steps that we've

00:12:16.120 changed something.

00:12:16.860 It's all about us.

00:12:17.800 I definitely want

00:12:18.920 to stop a coffee

00:12:20.000 place that wants

00:12:20.880 all blacks in jail. 0.92

00:12:22.180 They think all

00:12:23.040 black men

00:12:23.680 belong in jail.

00:12:25.060 I heard it from

00:12:25.720 Black Lives Matter.

00:12:26.940 Right.

00:12:27.120 They don't want

00:12:27.760 that.

00:12:28.320 There's no evidence

00:12:29.120 that they want

00:12:29.800 that.

00:12:30.200 Black Lives Matter

00:12:31.220 just going to say

00:12:31.860 that?

00:12:32.200 There's no pattern

00:12:32.960 of behavior

00:12:33.660 that supports that.

00:12:35.080 But beyond that,

00:12:36.340 now let's take

00:12:37.180 another step back.

00:12:38.520 Is there any

00:12:40.180 evidence

00:12:41.560 whatsoever

00:12:42.860 that this

00:12:44.100 incident had

00:12:45.160 anything to do

00:12:46.360 at any time

00:12:47.800 with race?

00:12:49.260 No.

00:12:49.660 Was there,

00:12:50.060 is there,

00:12:50.460 is this guy

00:12:51.040 on his,

00:12:51.420 whoever,

00:12:52.120 whatever manager

00:12:53.020 is,

00:12:53.320 are they on

00:12:53.720 their Facebook

00:12:54.140 page posting

00:12:54.920 racist memes?

00:12:57.960 Did they say

00:12:59.080 anything about

00:13:00.300 race at any

00:13:01.680 point?

00:13:02.440 So here is,

00:13:03.180 are you trying

00:13:03.820 to tell me

00:13:04.620 that there has

00:13:05.360 not been a

00:13:05.860 white person

00:13:06.620 who's been

00:13:07.040 removed from

00:13:07.760 a restaurant

00:13:08.440 because,

00:13:09.720 they wouldn't

00:13:10.840 pay for it.

00:13:11.240 They wouldn't

00:13:11.480 pay for something.

00:13:12.320 They would sit

00:13:12.700 down.

00:13:13.080 Now, that's

00:13:13.520 called loitering.

00:13:14.280 Of course,

00:13:14.860 since this

00:13:15.360 happened,

00:13:15.900 people have

00:13:16.400 posted many

00:13:17.620 times where

00:13:18.640 people have

00:13:19.100 been removed

00:13:19.500 from Starbucks

00:13:20.180 and other

00:13:20.620 places that

00:13:21.540 were white

00:13:22.020 because they

00:13:22.700 didn't listen

00:13:23.360 to the person

00:13:23.980 who was at,

00:13:25.440 who was running

00:13:25.800 the store.

00:13:26.240 How many times

00:13:26.680 have we seen

00:13:26.980 the sign,

00:13:27.700 no shirt,

00:13:28.340 no shoes,

00:13:29.180 no service,

00:13:29.960 right?

00:13:30.640 What happens

00:13:31.540 in that situation

00:13:32.200 if you try to

00:13:32.740 come in with

00:13:33.160 no shirt and

00:13:34.080 no shoes?

00:13:34.800 The manager

00:13:35.440 would try to

00:13:36.020 remove you.

00:13:36.540 What if you

00:13:36.880 just sat down

00:13:37.600 though?

00:13:38.760 What if you

00:13:39.180 had no shirt

00:13:39.760 and no shoes

00:13:40.240 and you just

00:13:40.620 sat down at

00:13:41.220 a table?

00:13:41.740 What would

00:13:42.100 they do?

00:13:42.820 Now, there's

00:13:43.280 probably about

00:13:44.260 80% of managers

00:13:45.220 who would roll

00:13:45.800 their eyes

00:13:46.160 and get angry

00:13:46.760 and not do

00:13:47.220 anything because

00:13:47.660 they were

00:13:47.860 afraid their

00:13:49.040 restaurant chain

00:13:50.100 would be boycotted

00:13:50.840 if they did

00:13:51.300 something.

00:13:51.980 However, they

00:13:53.040 would have the

00:13:53.580 right at that

00:13:54.260 point because

00:13:54.760 you were violating

00:13:55.540 the rules of

00:13:56.340 the restaurant

00:13:57.840 to call the

00:13:58.640 police.

00:13:59.000 The police

00:13:59.340 don't have to

00:13:59.780 listen to the

00:14:00.360 manager, by

00:14:01.060 the way.

00:14:01.820 Police don't

00:14:02.160 have to come

00:14:02.480 in and say,

00:14:02.800 okay, well,

00:14:03.220 we agree, we're

00:14:03.800 going to remove

00:14:04.180 this person.

00:14:04.620 They don't have

00:14:04.980 to.

00:14:05.500 No, it's

00:14:05.760 corporate police.

00:14:06.860 The corporate

00:14:07.260 police did that.

00:14:08.080 Yeah, you

00:14:08.700 don't understand.

00:14:09.300 They all listen

00:14:09.740 to the corporations.

00:14:11.680 Boy, Stu, you

00:14:12.400 are so misguided.

00:14:13.040 I am.

00:14:13.060 I guess I'm

00:14:13.580 now.

00:14:13.820 Here's why

00:14:14.540 history is really

00:14:15.420 important in this.

00:14:17.880 Believe it or

00:14:18.660 not, once upon

00:14:20.420 a time, there

00:14:20.980 was this guy.

00:14:22.320 He was a

00:14:22.680 reverend.

00:14:24.100 He was also a

00:14:25.620 doctor.

00:14:26.400 He was a

00:14:27.040 reverend doctor,

00:14:28.660 Martin Luther

00:14:29.140 King.

00:14:29.520 And in his

00:14:32.100 day, black

00:14:33.260 people were

00:14:34.360 asked to

00:14:35.860 leave restaurants

00:14:36.840 because the

00:14:38.600 only reason

00:14:39.180 they were

00:14:40.020 black.

00:14:41.620 They would

00:14:42.380 sit at a

00:14:42.920 lunch counter

00:14:43.500 where everyone

00:14:44.320 else was being

00:14:45.120 served and no

00:14:46.980 waiter would

00:14:47.600 come and serve

00:14:48.600 them.

00:14:48.980 Not because they

00:14:49.960 didn't have

00:14:50.320 money, not

00:14:51.080 because they

00:14:51.520 weren't being

00:14:51.980 polite.

00:14:52.580 They sat

00:14:53.400 there just

00:14:54.000 like every

00:14:54.460 other customer

00:14:55.080 and they

00:14:55.580 were polite.

00:14:56.300 They were

00:14:57.060 respectful.

00:14:58.440 They dressed

00:14:59.500 like all the

00:15:00.180 other customers.

00:15:01.360 They did

00:15:01.720 everything to

00:15:02.740 fit in, except

00:15:04.420 they were

00:15:05.240 black.

00:15:07.700 They had a

00:15:09.000 reason to

00:15:10.380 stand or to

00:15:11.680 sit at that

00:15:12.680 counter.

00:15:15.020 They had a

00:15:16.200 reason to

00:15:17.140 protest because

00:15:19.120 they weren't

00:15:19.920 being served

00:15:20.740 solely because

00:15:22.300 they're black.

00:15:23.100 They wanted

00:15:24.240 to pay for

00:15:25.140 their meal and

00:15:26.560 they just

00:15:27.300 wanted to be

00:15:28.640 recognized

00:15:29.500 as a human

00:15:30.880 being.

00:15:32.500 We have

00:15:33.400 now so

00:15:33.880 distorted

00:15:34.620 what Martin

00:15:36.120 Luther King

00:15:36.700 and what

00:15:37.080 civil rights

00:15:37.920 actually mean

00:15:39.000 that now

00:15:39.920 people are

00:15:40.840 walking in

00:15:41.700 and claiming

00:15:42.820 luxuries

00:15:43.780 that no one

00:15:45.120 else gets

00:15:46.000 without paying

00:15:47.240 for the

00:15:47.740 product.

00:15:49.520 They're

00:15:50.140 demanding

00:15:50.840 luxuries.

00:15:53.040 And I

00:15:53.820 know, well,

00:15:54.440 I've got to

00:15:54.960 go to the

00:15:55.500 bathroom.

00:15:56.140 Yes.

00:15:56.440 And they

00:15:57.240 have a

00:15:57.720 right to

00:15:58.180 say you

00:15:59.080 have to

00:15:59.560 be a

00:15:59.900 paying

00:16:00.200 customer.

00:16:01.380 Otherwise,

00:16:02.620 they don't

00:16:03.580 have bathrooms

00:16:04.600 for all the

00:16:05.540 paying customers

00:16:06.280 because people

00:16:07.360 are coming in

00:16:08.100 because no

00:16:09.120 one provides

00:16:10.160 restrooms for 0.99

00:16:12.260 non-customers.

00:16:13.940 we really

00:16:18.100 need to

00:16:18.540 learn history

00:16:19.280 because we

00:16:21.040 are perverting

00:16:22.160 or it's

00:16:22.520 already been

00:16:23.420 done.

00:16:25.660 The same

00:16:26.580 people of

00:16:27.100 America, both 0.84

00:16:27.840 left and

00:16:28.320 right, need

00:16:30.260 to recognize

00:16:30.940 how far

00:16:31.820 away from

00:16:32.480 the actual

00:16:33.020 civil rights

00:16:33.640 movement we

00:16:34.260 are, and

00:16:35.920 we need to

00:16:36.440 calmly and

00:16:37.160 rationally

00:16:37.900 remind people

00:16:39.200 there was

00:16:42.000 a deep

00:16:42.720 problem in

00:16:44.240 America.

00:16:45.180 In some

00:16:46.220 cases, there

00:16:47.060 still is, and

00:16:48.700 we have a

00:16:49.200 long way to

00:16:49.780 go.

00:16:50.800 But we

00:16:51.680 progress.

00:16:52.800 We get

00:16:53.220 better.

00:16:55.040 But we're

00:16:55.900 not going to

00:16:56.680 get better.

00:16:57.180 We're going to

00:16:57.680 get worse

00:16:58.360 if people

00:17:00.300 demand extra

00:17:02.000 things only

00:17:04.180 because of

00:17:05.100 their race.

00:17:06.660 When they

00:17:07.500 demand, and

00:17:08.460 everybody

00:17:08.880 kowtows to 0.99

00:17:10.400 one race

00:17:11.280 over another

00:17:12.100 because they

00:17:13.440 have the

00:17:13.860 power not

00:17:14.920 to lift up

00:17:15.520 but to

00:17:16.040 destroy, that

00:17:18.480 is going to

00:17:18.940 cause even

00:17:19.720 more divisions

00:17:20.720 in our

00:17:21.420 country, and

00:17:22.580 we can play

00:17:23.480 no role in

00:17:24.840 it.

00:17:29.240 Liberty

00:17:29.960 Safe, the

00:17:31.420 safe, the

00:17:32.860 safes that are

00:17:33.300 all built here

00:17:33.940 in America,

00:17:34.800 they build

00:17:35.540 every Cabela's

00:17:36.620 safe.

00:17:37.100 in fact,

00:17:38.720 they're

00:17:39.100 becoming such

00:17:39.740 a brand

00:17:40.200 name that

00:17:40.880 people are

00:17:42.420 going into

00:17:42.820 Cabela's, and

00:17:43.840 they're saying,

00:17:44.260 no, I want

00:17:44.620 the one that

00:17:45.000 says Liberty

00:17:45.500 on it, and

00:17:47.460 they're like,

00:17:47.780 well, no, it's

00:17:48.200 the same safe

00:17:49.700 except it

00:17:50.180 says Cabela's.

00:17:51.760 No, I want

00:17:52.440 the one that

00:17:52.800 says Liberty

00:17:53.300 on it.

00:17:54.080 Liberty

00:17:54.320 Safe, they're

00:17:54.940 made here in

00:17:56.080 America, and

00:17:56.800 they are the

00:17:57.240 best built

00:17:58.100 safes on

00:17:59.700 the planet.

00:18:00.480 They are

00:18:01.020 really, really

00:18:02.140 good.

00:18:03.280 We have

00:18:04.000 seen all

00:18:04.520 kinds of

00:18:04.940 demonstrations

00:18:05.400 over the

00:18:05.840 last 10

00:18:06.280 years of

00:18:06.760 dropping a

00:18:07.500 competitor's

00:18:08.220 safe, they're

00:18:08.860 really heavy, on

00:18:10.100 a Liberty.

00:18:10.800 Doesn't dent,

00:18:11.540 doesn't open.

00:18:12.480 We've seen

00:18:13.020 them in

00:18:13.440 fires.

00:18:14.380 The contents

00:18:15.060 are still

00:18:15.420 good, even

00:18:15.940 though only

00:18:16.600 thing that

00:18:17.080 remains of

00:18:17.880 the house

00:18:18.340 is the

00:18:18.880 chimney.

00:18:20.600 Everything

00:18:20.980 else is

00:18:21.520 burned down

00:18:21.980 to the

00:18:22.160 ground.

00:18:22.400 It's the

00:18:22.760 chimney and

00:18:23.320 the Liberty

00:18:23.680 safe.

00:18:24.480 We've seen

00:18:25.000 them picked

00:18:25.380 up by

00:18:25.940 tornadoes and

00:18:27.540 dropped a

00:18:28.020 block or two

00:18:29.140 away from

00:18:29.760 their original

00:18:30.340 place.

00:18:30.840 still closed.

00:18:33.460 Liberty

00:18:33.660 safe.

00:18:34.240 You want to

00:18:34.540 make sure

00:18:34.900 that nothing

00:18:35.500 happens to

00:18:36.280 the property

00:18:37.060 that you care

00:18:37.860 about or

00:18:38.520 your guns and

00:18:39.400 nobody gets

00:18:40.040 in but you.

00:18:41.400 You get a

00:18:41.820 Liberty safe.

00:18:42.820 And right now

00:18:43.220 you can get it

00:18:43.620 at a great

00:18:43.960 price.

00:18:45.780 payments with

00:18:46.400 zero down and

00:18:47.380 zero APR.

00:18:48.800 They even offer

00:18:49.400 Liberty safes for

00:18:50.140 as low as

00:18:50.660 $20 a month.

00:18:52.480 Liberty safe.

00:18:53.340 Go to

00:18:53.660 libertysafe.com

00:18:55.000 right now.

00:18:55.760 That's

00:18:56.020 libertysafe.com.

00:18:58.080 Let me take

00:19:11.280 Ross quickly.

00:19:12.580 He may have

00:19:13.340 a substitute

00:19:14.060 outrage for

00:19:14.960 me.

00:19:15.560 Go ahead,

00:19:16.040 Ross.

00:19:17.340 Yes,

00:19:17.900 Stu's wrong

00:19:18.460 about something

00:19:18.980 about Starbucks.

00:19:19.840 There's one

00:19:20.260 thing that

00:19:20.660 Starbucks

00:19:21.120 consistently has

00:19:22.940 a microtransaction

00:19:23.980 transgression

00:19:25.020 against and

00:19:26.700 just a racist

00:19:27.740 attitude towards

00:19:28.680 spelling people's

00:19:29.980 names right.

00:19:31.360 For example,

00:19:32.120 my wife's name

00:19:32.720 is Cammie.

00:19:33.660 How do you

00:19:34.140 get Gabby out 1.00

00:19:34.900 of that?

00:19:35.400 So I think

00:19:35.800 we need to

00:19:36.160 do a hashtag

00:19:36.820 my name

00:19:37.620 right or

00:19:38.020 hashtag put

00:19:39.280 that in your

00:19:39.720 pipe and

00:19:40.100 smoke it.

00:19:40.720 Yeah.

00:19:41.000 Yeah.

00:19:41.220 Thank you for

00:19:41.740 the outrage.

00:19:42.380 Now, I don't

00:19:43.360 use Starbucks,

00:19:44.560 so I can't

00:19:45.080 get around it.

00:19:45.720 I need something

00:19:48.340 to really be

00:19:49.000 outraged by

00:19:49.600 today.

00:19:50.760 You know,

00:19:51.320 the Cohen

00:19:52.220 thing.

00:19:53.220 You can't get

00:19:53.960 through a day

00:19:54.360 without outrage.

00:19:55.220 That's the only

00:19:55.680 thing that fuels

00:19:56.360 us today.

00:19:56.920 This is the way

00:19:57.020 that America

00:19:57.620 lives now.

00:19:58.760 You were

00:19:59.440 addicted to

00:20:00.060 outrage and

00:20:00.620 I need my

00:20:01.220 fix.

00:20:02.460 Now, I

00:20:03.160 have a

00:20:04.340 possible

00:20:05.020 contender

00:20:05.960 and it

00:20:07.860 may sound

00:20:08.420 like a joke,

00:20:09.440 but believe

00:20:10.180 me, it's

00:20:10.900 not.

00:20:12.260 I'm going to

00:20:12.940 share that

00:20:13.460 one next.

00:20:22.680 Glenn

00:20:23.240 Beck

00:20:24.100 Mercury

00:20:25.200 this is the

00:20:42.240 Glenn Beck

00:20:42.560 program.

00:20:44.080 Okay, I'm

00:20:44.960 going to try

00:20:45.920 to remain calm

00:20:47.000 and collected

00:20:47.600 and maybe it

00:20:51.040 is just me,

00:20:52.160 but I don't

00:20:52.820 think it

00:20:53.280 is.

00:20:54.180 And I

00:20:54.720 know this

00:20:55.160 is an old

00:20:55.600 joke, but

00:20:56.320 this is no

00:20:57.160 joke.

00:20:57.640 I am not

00:20:58.360 joking.

00:20:58.940 This is not

00:20:59.700 a funny monologue

00:21:02.100 on Apple.

00:21:02.880 No, this is not

00:21:04.100 a funny monologue.

00:21:05.380 This is a dead

00:21:06.620 serious monologue

00:21:07.860 on Apple

00:21:09.160 cords.

00:21:10.380 I want

00:21:11.580 answers.

00:21:12.920 And if I

00:21:13.720 were in

00:21:14.100 Congress, I

00:21:14.860 would call a

00:21:15.700 congressional

00:21:16.180 hearing on

00:21:17.660 why Apple

00:21:19.940 refuses to

00:21:21.140 make a

00:21:21.580 cord that

00:21:22.780 just acts

00:21:23.720 like a

00:21:24.360 regular cord

00:21:25.320 for any

00:21:26.180 other device.

00:21:27.600 They have

00:21:28.520 reimagined

00:21:30.040 our entire

00:21:30.980 world.

00:21:31.860 They have

00:21:32.140 made our

00:21:32.580 life so

00:21:33.320 easy.

00:21:33.980 It's such

00:21:34.560 an amazing

00:21:35.360 product until

00:21:37.540 you go to

00:21:38.520 charge it.

00:21:39.620 Now, if you

00:21:40.380 have a little

00:21:40.780 charger station,

00:21:41.780 that's fantastic.

00:21:42.960 I love those

00:21:43.680 little charger

00:21:44.320 stations.

00:21:44.820 Now, for

00:21:45.580 those of us

00:21:46.280 humans that

00:21:47.560 use our

00:21:48.400 phones or

00:21:49.120 our devices

00:21:49.740 all the

00:21:50.380 time, and

00:21:51.280 we need to

00:21:51.980 plug them

00:21:52.460 in, I

00:21:53.560 don't know.

00:21:54.360 I need a

00:21:55.080 plug that is

00:21:55.920 a little

00:21:56.300 longer than

00:21:57.480 three feet.

00:21:59.020 Now, I

00:22:00.480 know you're

00:22:01.080 thinking to

00:22:01.500 yourself,

00:22:02.000 Glenn, they 0.93

00:22:02.640 sell them at

00:22:03.460 the Apple

00:22:03.860 store.

00:22:04.540 Do they?

00:22:05.520 Do they?

00:22:06.760 Okay.

00:22:07.440 What they do

00:22:08.340 is they hire

00:22:09.500 some other

00:22:10.240 company to

00:22:11.460 make cords,

00:22:12.560 and then they

00:22:13.280 approve them.

00:22:14.820 Although, I

00:22:15.800 have recently

00:22:16.760 purchased three

00:22:18.300 separate cords,

00:22:19.740 all from the

00:22:20.920 Apple store, and

00:22:22.000 they work for a

00:22:22.840 while, until

00:22:23.920 they don't.

00:22:26.040 I'd like one

00:22:26.760 that actually

00:22:27.300 works like a

00:22:28.600 cord.

00:22:29.280 I'd like to

00:22:30.160 not have to

00:22:30.840 stand in line

00:22:31.780 at the

00:22:32.360 freaking Apple

00:22:33.300 store for a

00:22:34.660 cord, and I

00:22:35.760 know the people

00:22:36.560 behind the

00:22:37.080 counter would

00:22:37.980 like to stop

00:22:38.800 seeing me.

00:22:40.320 I'd like to

00:22:41.420 know why.

00:22:42.720 why they

00:22:44.140 can't make

00:22:44.840 a cord

00:22:45.360 longer than

00:22:46.580 my arm.

00:22:47.500 Now, a lot

00:22:48.260 of people, I

00:22:49.540 think probably

00:22:50.100 most people,

00:22:51.460 you know, sit

00:22:52.380 on the floor

00:22:53.600 right next to

00:22:54.960 the baseboard

00:22:55.840 and the outlet

00:22:56.780 when they're

00:22:57.400 reading or, you

00:22:58.700 know, just

00:22:59.140 surfing the

00:22:59.800 web or doing

00:23:00.820 their work,

00:23:01.340 whatever it is

00:23:02.000 you're doing

00:23:02.460 with an Apple

00:23:02.920 product.

00:23:03.640 I know most

00:23:05.340 people sit

00:23:06.340 right at the

00:23:08.500 outlet.

00:23:08.900 I don't.

00:23:10.800 I don't.

00:23:11.940 Now, white 0.92

00:23:13.420 privilege, sure.

00:23:15.400 Here at the

00:23:16.380 office, I have a

00:23:17.540 radio desk that

00:23:18.520 we built with a

00:23:19.960 plug at my

00:23:21.500 station.

00:23:22.440 Do you know

00:23:23.200 why?

00:23:24.320 Because behind

00:23:25.560 me, about, I'd

00:23:27.280 say that's five

00:23:28.160 feet away, there

00:23:29.580 is an outlet.

00:23:31.000 But that's far

00:23:32.740 too far away for

00:23:34.520 an Apple plug.

00:23:35.500 So, white 0.99

00:23:36.960 privilege, we

00:23:38.320 all have plugs

00:23:39.940 either in our

00:23:41.440 bed, or we

00:23:42.620 have a plug in

00:23:43.880 the nightstand, or

00:23:45.240 we have a plug in

00:23:46.720 our desks.

00:23:47.640 But that's just

00:23:48.520 white people.

00:23:51.160 I don't know

00:23:52.480 why they can't

00:23:53.780 make a plug

00:23:54.740 longer than my

00:23:56.240 arm, because I

00:23:58.040 am usually more

00:24:00.120 than arm's length

00:24:01.440 away from the

00:24:02.780 outlet.

00:24:03.120 outlet.

00:24:04.420 This has been

00:24:05.360 the bane of my

00:24:06.380 freaking existence

00:24:07.560 since I started

00:24:09.320 using Apple, and

00:24:10.220 they're not getting

00:24:10.840 better.

00:24:11.860 Now, I've

00:24:12.800 purchased the

00:24:13.880 new plug.

00:24:14.900 It didn't work.

00:24:16.440 It worked for a

00:24:17.060 while, and then it

00:24:17.620 stopped working.

00:24:18.300 It's about three

00:24:18.900 weeks over-under on

00:24:20.200 a plug that's not

00:24:21.140 an Apple plug.

00:24:21.980 I feel like three

00:24:22.660 weeks is about the

00:24:23.740 length of time to

00:24:24.520 get out of them.

00:24:25.080 But I mean, not an

00:24:26.420 Apple plug that you

00:24:27.280 bought at the

00:24:28.180 Apple store.

00:24:28.960 I understand if you

00:24:29.900 just try to, you're

00:24:30.780 just trying to find a

00:24:31.700 plug that fits, you

00:24:33.200 know, at a

00:24:34.020 Target.

00:24:34.800 I get it.

00:24:35.960 You gotta go to

00:24:37.100 Apple to get it,

00:24:38.700 you know, because

00:24:39.460 that's the most

00:24:40.020 convenient thing for

00:24:41.220 you.

00:24:41.780 I'm talking about the

00:24:42.740 ones you buy at

00:24:43.820 Apple, but are not

00:24:44.820 made by Apple.

00:24:45.620 But about three

00:24:46.360 weeks over-under on

00:24:47.300 that, would you say?

00:24:48.220 Yeah.

00:24:48.400 About three weeks,

00:24:49.500 because it does seem

00:24:50.420 to work initially.

00:24:51.920 Yes, it does.

00:24:52.640 Then it stops

00:24:53.180 working.

00:24:53.900 Before the calendar

00:24:54.960 turns, you're back at

00:24:56.840 the Apple store buying

00:24:57.900 another thing.

00:24:58.540 I buy them in bulk.

00:24:59.440 We should point out

00:25:00.460 that these are not

00:25:01.540 just cords that you

00:25:03.240 buy at the Apple

00:25:03.800 store.

00:25:04.420 They are, let's say,

00:25:05.340 six-foot cords made

00:25:06.920 by other companies

00:25:07.620 that charge you

00:25:08.920 $59 for the cord.

00:25:10.840 Yeah.

00:25:11.040 The cord is never,

00:25:11.940 it's not an irrational

00:25:13.700 human amount that you

00:25:15.160 pay for a power cord.

00:25:16.520 Of course not.

00:25:17.140 This is an Apple

00:25:17.720 price.

00:25:18.140 It's $59 for a

00:25:19.720 six-foot cord.

00:25:20.440 Sure.

00:25:20.760 Okay, so you have a

00:25:21.840 six-foot cord.

00:25:22.480 Now, this is the

00:25:24.140 third time in the last

00:25:25.760 two and a half months

00:25:27.240 that I have purchased a

00:25:29.160 cord.

00:25:29.500 In fact, I thought it

00:25:30.600 can't be the cord.

00:25:31.640 It's got to be my

00:25:32.660 iPad.

00:25:33.460 So I went out and I

00:25:34.980 bought a new iPad

00:25:36.780 because I thought for

00:25:39.280 sure it had to be the

00:25:40.540 iPad and the geniuses

00:25:42.900 behind the counter were

00:25:44.500 wrong because they were

00:25:45.620 like, no, there's

00:25:46.360 nothing wrong with the

00:25:46.940 iPad.

00:25:47.640 Well, I just bought my

00:25:49.200 third cord, so it

00:25:50.840 must be either the

00:25:52.480 cord.

00:25:52.900 No, it's not the

00:25:53.560 cord.

00:25:53.880 It seems to work.

00:25:54.600 I know it's weird.

00:25:55.600 It works sometimes.

00:25:56.760 It doesn't work all the

00:25:58.060 time, but it always

00:25:59.440 works here when you

00:26:00.680 plug it in.

00:26:01.720 Weird, isn't it?

00:26:03.100 So I buy another

00:26:04.240 iPad.

00:26:04.880 This is my second

00:26:05.820 iPad now in about a

00:26:07.420 month.

00:26:08.580 What a surprise.

00:26:10.200 It's not working.

00:26:12.420 I'm yesterday.

00:26:13.320 I was if Steve Jobs

00:26:14.640 were in my house

00:26:16.040 yesterday and alive,

00:26:18.500 you'd be mourning his

00:26:20.220 death again today.

00:26:21.800 I can't take it anymore

00:26:24.580 because it's not just

00:26:25.860 the cord.

00:26:26.580 It's not just the

00:26:27.300 cord that is short.

00:26:29.480 Have you ever used one

00:26:30.520 of these newfangled

00:26:31.380 devices called a

00:26:33.100 vacuum?

00:26:35.480 Oh, I've heard of

00:26:35.900 those.

00:26:36.180 Yeah.

00:26:36.340 Yeah.

00:26:36.520 OK, so you know how

00:26:37.580 you plug a vacuum in

00:26:38.960 and then there's always

00:26:40.560 a place in the room

00:26:41.980 that you're vacuuming

00:26:42.940 that's just a little

00:26:44.540 too far away from the

00:26:45.740 cord, but you're so

00:26:46.680 lazy.

00:26:47.320 You know, when you were

00:26:48.380 a kid, you were like,

00:26:49.100 I want to vacuum the

00:26:49.820 living room and the

00:26:50.580 hallway and I'm too

00:26:51.520 lazy to unplug the

00:26:52.520 damn thing.

00:26:53.600 And so you just try to

00:26:54.680 get it and you're

00:26:55.380 stretching the cord to

00:26:56.920 its maximum length

00:26:58.440 and you just about

00:26:59.480 have it.

00:27:00.020 And then finally that

00:27:00.880 cord, which is really,

00:27:01.940 really taut and kind of

00:27:03.200 coming through two

00:27:04.040 doorways and you're

00:27:04.900 like, ah, and you

00:27:06.720 got to go back and

00:27:07.460 plug it in.

00:27:08.160 Or that's when you

00:27:08.640 stop vacuuming.

00:27:09.680 That's what I did.

00:27:10.580 But I, but I, well,

00:27:13.000 my mom's dead now,

00:27:13.700 so I can admit that

00:27:14.800 anyway.

00:27:15.560 Uh, so you know,

00:27:17.180 the cord thing.

00:27:18.080 Yeah.

00:27:18.360 Okay.

00:27:18.680 That seemed to have

00:27:19.740 some give to it.

00:27:20.720 It had staying power.

00:27:23.100 You have a three foot

00:27:24.260 cord and you move 0.99

00:27:26.380 your iPad just slightly

00:27:29.260 too far, like a quarter

00:27:30.480 of inch too far.

00:27:31.680 The plug falls out.

00:27:33.440 These plugs have zero

00:27:35.340 staying power.

00:27:36.600 They're like not built

00:27:37.820 to stay in the, in the

00:27:39.280 actual outlet.

00:27:39.820 No, it's not like

00:27:40.720 they're built for

00:27:41.920 American outlets.

00:27:42.860 I don't know what kind

00:27:43.880 of outlets they're built

00:27:44.760 for, but not American

00:27:46.180 outlets.

00:27:46.840 Now you can't use them

00:27:47.960 in Europe or anyplace

00:27:48.920 else because they

00:27:50.220 look like they're

00:27:51.320 supposed to work in

00:27:52.100 American outlets, but

00:27:53.240 they never stay in.

00:27:56.220 I have a, I have a, a

00:27:58.400 power strip that I've

00:27:59.760 had to take my

00:28:00.920 extension cord and

00:28:01.900 bring it out and then

00:28:03.500 tape it to the side of

00:28:05.240 my, my nightstand.

00:28:07.400 Okay.

00:28:08.300 It's nicely done.

00:28:09.820 It's beautiful.

00:28:10.480 Tape it to the

00:28:11.400 nightstand.

00:28:11.860 So the plug is there.

00:28:14.760 It's right there at the

00:28:16.500 nightstand.

00:28:17.420 Well, God forbid, I want

00:28:19.280 to read my book and roll

00:28:21.180 over about 60% of the

00:28:23.400 time I roll over and the

00:28:25.480 damn plug falls out.

00:28:26.960 It's right there.

00:28:29.140 Sometimes I don't even

00:28:29.940 have to move.

00:28:30.780 Sometimes just in the

00:28:32.020 middle of the night, I

00:28:32.860 get up and there's no

00:28:33.880 charge on my iPad.

00:28:35.040 Why?

00:28:35.580 Because the plug has

00:28:36.580 fallen out of the wall.

00:28:37.640 Like there was maybe a

00:28:39.120 stiff wind in the middle

00:28:40.320 of the night or the

00:28:41.380 alarm clock when it

00:28:42.520 went off.

00:28:44.040 It just was, it was

00:28:45.340 causing too much of

00:28:46.600 vibration and a shimmy on

00:28:48.400 the table.

00:28:49.260 And so the plug fell out.

00:28:50.500 I have no idea what the

00:28:53.260 hell is going on, but I

00:28:55.900 just, I just want an

00:28:56.760 answer.

00:28:57.060 I just want, why, why

00:28:58.500 you can even say, because

00:29:00.020 we hate people actually.

00:29:00.980 And it's our way to just

00:29:02.180 way to show them, you

00:29:03.180 know, you're so stupid. 0.98

00:29:04.240 We thought you'd never

00:29:05.380 pay a thousand dollars

00:29:06.480 for a phone.

00:29:07.720 Look what we've made you

00:29:08.900 do.

00:29:09.260 You'll go out and you'll

00:29:09.820 buy a thousand dollar

00:29:11.060 phone.

00:29:11.560 You'll wait in line.

00:29:13.220 There's no reason to

00:29:14.140 wait in line anymore.

00:29:15.380 We make you do it

00:29:16.520 because we think you're

00:29:17.400 a bunch of rubes.

00:29:18.880 And you know what?

00:29:19.820 You did all those

00:29:20.780 things.

00:29:21.400 So we tried to, we

00:29:22.960 said, Hey, you know

00:29:24.020 what they won't put up

00:29:24.720 with a, just a

00:29:26.440 ridiculously short cord

00:29:28.480 that won't even stay in

00:29:30.440 the wall socket.

00:29:32.220 And yet you still pay a

00:29:34.160 thousand dollars for a

00:29:35.260 phone.

00:29:35.600 I'll accept that answer

00:29:37.000 from you.

00:29:37.500 I just want an answer

00:29:39.420 because I'm beginning to

00:29:40.680 think that Steve Jobs is

00:29:42.180 alive.

00:29:43.020 He's just being held

00:29:44.320 hostage by some

00:29:45.600 ridiculously bad

00:29:47.260 communist cord company

00:29:49.320 that is like, I swear to

00:29:50.640 you, if you stop selling

00:29:51.580 our cords, we kill him.

00:29:52.840 We kill him.

00:29:53.280 And I mean it, we're

00:29:53.920 going to kill him. 0.70

00:29:54.800 And if that's the case,

00:29:56.240 let them kill him.

00:29:58.620 Let them kill him.

00:29:59.820 We've already kind of

00:30:00.540 mourned that one.

00:30:01.240 We've moved on from him.

00:30:02.780 It's okay.

00:30:04.360 Let him go.

00:30:05.760 We need a cord that 0.93

00:30:07.240 works.

00:30:12.660 And the only thing that

00:30:14.400 would make your frustration

00:30:15.500 worse is the 500 tweets

00:30:18.140 that I have received about

00:30:19.680 how other people have

00:30:20.880 purchased cords, not from

00:30:22.300 the Apple store that

00:30:22.880 work perfectly well.

00:30:24.260 Shut up. 0.95

00:30:25.220 Don't even, don't write to

00:30:26.520 me and say, oh, this one

00:30:27.920 works.

00:30:28.400 No, it doesn't.

00:30:28.960 It never works for me.

00:30:30.220 None of them.

00:30:30.720 I've got literally a

00:30:32.720 drawer full of cords that

00:30:34.840 do not work for my Apple

00:30:37.060 products.

00:30:37.680 If they work for you, good.

00:30:39.380 Give me your address.

00:30:40.280 I'll send one to you.

00:30:41.840 They don't work in my

00:30:43.480 household for some reason.

00:30:46.400 Don't even write unless

00:30:49.060 you're writing from Apple

00:30:50.880 with an explanation.

00:30:53.320 All right.

00:30:54.540 Let me tell you about

00:30:55.580 American financing.

00:30:57.920 Refinance your mortgage.

00:30:59.120 Now is the time to do it.

00:31:01.500 30, you know, you don't

00:31:03.060 loan again.

00:31:04.540 Well, American financing

00:31:05.420 can help.

00:31:06.820 mortgage insurance, lower

00:31:08.000 your rate and consolidate

00:31:09.720 your high interest debt.

00:31:20.580 13 or 18 year loan.

00:32:07.100 Glenn Beck

00:32:10.100 Oh, everybody solved this

00:32:17.180 but me, huh?

00:32:18.080 Oh, yeah.

00:32:18.620 No, no, no.

00:32:22.400 Glenn Beck.

00:32:23.920 I'm serious.

00:32:24.940 I mean, I just,

00:32:25.800 I think duct tape works. 1.00

00:32:27.560 I'm just going to duct tape

00:32:28.460 it to the wall.

00:32:29.400 So all I'm going to do

00:32:29.920 is take that apple cord

00:32:30.880 and I'm going to duct tape

00:32:31.660 it to the wall.

00:32:33.460 A lot of people are suggesting

00:32:34.620 wonderful alternatives,

00:32:36.040 Glenn.

00:32:36.560 A lot of people have had

00:32:37.260 really good luck.

00:32:38.300 Yeah.

00:32:38.700 With?

00:32:39.360 Well, Amazon Basics

00:32:40.760 and a lot of people

00:32:41.660 suggesting that

00:32:42.360 because they make their own,

00:32:43.240 they have their own

00:32:43.660 sort of line of,

00:32:44.560 you know,

00:32:46.060 batteries and cords

00:32:47.200 and things like that.

00:32:48.220 And it works for an Apple product.

00:32:50.040 That's what it says.

00:32:50.940 It's,

00:32:51.580 and they're obviously

00:32:52.700 a lot cheaper as well.

00:32:54.340 Oh.

00:32:55.080 I will say,

00:32:55.920 I have had the same problem.

00:32:57.300 I just bought the ridiculous,

00:32:59.540 because I had the same thing.

00:33:00.360 It kept not working.

00:33:01.380 And it was one of those issues

00:33:02.220 where you look at your iPhone

00:33:03.120 when it's charging

00:33:03.760 and it's just sitting there.

00:33:05.540 Mm-hmm.

00:33:05.760 And it's sitting there

00:33:07.080 like as still as can be

00:33:08.620 on a flat surface.

00:33:10.520 Yeah.

00:33:10.760 And you look,

00:33:11.360 and you look at it

00:33:11.920 and you're watching it

00:33:12.700 and you just see it go

00:33:13.720 zzz,

00:33:15.020 zzz,

00:33:15.620 zzz.

00:33:16.640 And what's happening

00:33:17.540 is it's somehow

00:33:18.720 actually unplugging itself

00:33:20.960 and plugging itself back in.

00:33:22.560 Yeah.

00:33:22.840 It's gaining and losing

00:33:24.440 the connection

00:33:25.080 in front of your eyes.

00:33:26.600 Yeah,

00:33:26.800 in real time not moving.

00:33:28.480 And then,

00:33:28.820 you know what always happens is

00:33:29.780 when you charge it

00:33:30.760 next to your bed

00:33:31.520 and it drives you crazy.

00:33:36.940 Mm-hmm.

00:33:37.100 And eventually you fall asleep

00:33:38.120 and you know what happens

00:33:38.700 once you fall asleep?

00:33:39.540 It finally stops.

00:33:41.020 You know where it stops?

00:33:41.860 On the not charging option.

00:33:43.760 Yes.

00:33:44.120 So then,

00:33:44.760 your alarm doesn't go off.

00:33:46.060 Right.

00:33:46.440 And you wake up with a phone

00:33:47.520 that has no batteries

00:33:48.360 at the charge.

00:33:49.700 Boy,

00:33:50.180 have I lived there.

00:33:51.100 Yes.

00:33:51.260 I've got my alarm.

00:33:52.720 You know,

00:33:52.880 I've fixed that.

00:33:53.740 I've got my alarm.

00:33:55.320 It actually goes off,

00:33:57.660 but no matter what I do,

00:33:59.260 it will not make sound.

00:34:02.600 So when I wake up naturally,

00:34:04.740 it's just showing,

00:34:06.000 you know,

00:34:06.300 hit the snooze or cancel.

00:34:08.060 Hit the snooze or cancel.

00:34:09.240 Yeah,

00:34:09.660 no need now.

00:34:10.540 It's been going off

00:34:11.420 for an hour and a half,

00:34:12.360 but it didn't make a sound.

00:34:15.220 Not a single sound.

00:34:16.760 I've turned up the volume.

00:34:17.940 I've done everything.

00:34:18.820 Love it.

00:34:19.480 Love it.

00:34:19.800 Now,

00:34:20.320 this may be operator error.

00:34:22.620 That one maybe.

00:34:23.420 Probably.

00:34:23.900 That one maybe,

00:34:24.600 but I can't figure it out.

00:34:25.520 My wife can't figure it out. 1.00

00:34:27.140 But I mean,

00:34:27.500 you should at least try.

00:34:28.700 What I,

00:34:29.260 there's two ways to go.

00:34:30.880 Buy the super pricey cord,

00:34:32.480 which I attempted at Apple,

00:34:34.120 which looks like a rope.

00:34:34.900 Because you always think,

00:34:35.420 well,

00:34:35.700 Apple just will want

00:34:37.060 the super pricey one.

00:34:38.260 Right.

00:34:38.440 Like my thought is,

00:34:39.300 maybe I'm not paying Apple enough.

00:34:42.340 Did you get the Apple rope?

00:34:43.460 So I got the one

00:34:44.140 that looks like a rope.

00:34:45.100 Yeah.

00:34:45.260 That is like,

00:34:46.320 you know,

00:34:47.100 $50.

00:34:48.800 Yeah.

00:34:49.260 And it's like eight feet long.

00:34:51.220 Uh-huh.

00:34:51.600 And it worked for about six days.

00:34:53.880 And then it stopped working.

00:34:55.640 The rope one did.

00:34:56.640 The rope one did.

00:34:57.520 The nice thing about the rope one,

00:34:58.820 for no extra money,

00:34:59.900 you can fashion it into a noose.

00:35:03.480 So...

00:35:03.800 It's true.

00:35:04.720 That's something I may attempt soon.

00:35:06.600 Yeah.

00:35:07.000 Well,

00:35:07.400 I'm there.

00:35:08.100 I'm there.

00:35:08.700 The other way to go is to buy,

00:35:11.080 like,

00:35:11.400 for example,

00:35:11.760 I was just on the Amazon basic site.

00:35:13.340 They have a 24 pack.

00:35:14.520 So let's say you're getting three weeks

00:35:16.580 out of each one.

00:35:17.980 I mean,

00:35:18.380 then you're,

00:35:19.020 you know,

00:35:19.400 you're out to 72 weeks.

00:35:20.400 Isn't that,

00:35:20.820 seriously,

00:35:21.380 a 24 pack,

00:35:22.340 isn't that just a sign of failure?

00:35:25.820 It's just a sign that company's like,

00:35:27.700 yeah,

00:35:28.080 they only last about three weeks.

00:35:29.900 Let's sell them as bundles.

00:35:32.040 But again,

00:35:32.840 if you have to throw,

00:35:33.980 if you just throw it out,

00:35:35.660 you're probably still paying less than one Apple cord.

00:35:38.600 I'm fine.

00:35:39.360 I really,

00:35:39.860 I really am fine with it.

00:35:41.240 I'm even fine with my wife,

00:35:43.520 her little Apple cord.

00:35:44.640 It's so frayed.

00:35:45.820 You could actually see the wires.

00:35:47.460 That damn thing is still working.

00:35:49.380 And I'm fine.

00:35:50.480 If it would fray,

00:35:51.520 I'd be like,

00:35:52.100 okay,

00:35:52.360 well,

00:35:52.700 you know,

00:35:53.040 it's just being used all the time.

00:35:55.420 Like it's a supposedly,

00:35:56.880 you know,

00:35:57.260 supposedly designed to do,

00:35:58.940 but I would still be like,

00:36:00.540 okay,

00:36:00.980 maybe there's something there.

00:36:02.180 Maybe,

00:36:02.500 you know,

00:36:02.880 at night I get up in the middle of night and I've got a little file and I'm,

00:36:05.900 I'm filing down the rubber coating or something.

00:36:08.220 I would be okay with that.

00:36:10.180 I'm not okay with treating it better than I treat my children or my dogs.

00:36:17.620 Like lay it out.

00:36:18.760 Are you okay?

00:36:19.880 Okay.

00:36:20.120 You're going to go.

00:36:20.620 I'm going to,

00:36:21.100 I'm going to just set you right here.

00:36:22.860 Cause I'm just going to be really gentle with you.

00:36:25.680 And no,

00:36:27.840 no,

00:36:28.140 can I get you something?

00:36:29.400 Do you need anything?

00:36:30.580 Want a snack?

00:36:31.200 I mean,

00:36:32.300 I treat that cord like it's the most important thing in the world and it still

00:36:37.520 doesn't work.

00:36:38.540 Well,

00:36:38.580 if you're being that creepy to the cord,

00:36:39.940 maybe it's playing dead.

00:36:42.000 Just hoping you throw it away so it can get away from you.

00:36:44.520 Yeah.

00:36:45.320 Look,

00:36:45.740 and you could say,

00:36:46.320 Hey,

00:36:46.440 I've got a Samsung,

00:36:48.160 right?

00:36:48.740 I've got,

00:36:49.280 I don't even have an iPhone.

00:36:50.200 I don't even have an iPad.

00:36:51.140 Why do I want to hear some guy talk about his iPad for a half an hour?

00:36:55.600 You want us talking about James Comey?

00:36:57.540 You want to hear more about stormy Daniels?

00:36:59.880 Is that what you want?

00:37:00.780 We could.

00:37:01.340 Because we could go on about that.

00:37:02.760 We could.

00:37:03.380 You know,

00:37:03.920 we'll shoot ourselves before the end of the segment,

00:37:05.940 but we could talk stormy Daniels for,

00:37:08.420 for at least a minute or two.

00:37:09.960 Hey,

00:37:10.120 he's got the apple rope cord.

00:37:11.580 We could hang ourselves.

00:37:12.680 It's like looking at the news,

00:37:14.580 man.

00:37:14.760 I don't even know.

00:37:15.480 I'd rather,

00:37:16.560 these are real problems.

00:37:18.260 You know,

00:37:18.600 we can talk all about porn stars.

00:37:20.100 These are ones that I would think we could fix.

00:37:22.940 That one should be solvable.

00:37:23.980 I don't understand.

00:37:25.160 The whole point of the company is that we make things easy.

00:37:27.920 It's ergonomically designed.

00:37:29.180 I don't know how they,

00:37:29.880 they're the most,

00:37:30.300 I don't know how they're the most beloved company on the earth.

00:37:33.200 They suck.

00:37:33.980 They suck.

00:37:34.700 They really do.

00:37:35.300 As people,

00:37:35.900 they suck. 0.95

00:37:36.500 They're,

00:37:36.880 they're treating us like dogs.

00:37:40.280 Go stand in line.

00:37:41.300 Go stand in line.

00:37:42.780 Mercury.

00:37:43.180 So we have news of another big data breach.

00:37:48.060 It was recently reported that hackers stole information for more than 5 million credit and debit cards used for in-store purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue, Saks Off Fifth, and Lord & Taylor stores.

00:37:57.620 Some of the card information was put up for sale on the dark web as soon as the breach went viral.

00:38:02.420 There are so many threats in today's connected world.

00:38:05.340 And it takes just takes just one week link for criminals to get in.

00:38:09.060 Good thing that the new LifeLock identity theft protection adds the power of Norton Security to help protect you against threats to your identity and your devices that you can't easily see or fix on your own.

00:38:18.580 I don't think they can fix problems with your power cords, but they can fix this.

00:38:21.900 If you have a problem, they have agents who will work to do just that.

00:38:24.880 No one can stop every cyber threat, prevent all identity theft, or monitor transactions at all businesses.

00:38:30.060 But new LifeLock with Norton Security is able to uncover threats you might otherwise miss.

00:38:34.360 Go to LifeLock.com or 1-800-LIFELOCK and use promo code BEC for an additional 10% off your first year.

00:38:39.580 That's promo code BEC for an additional 10% off at LifeLock.com.

00:38:48.580 In several states, the number of women who die after giving birth has been on the rise in America for the past 15 years.

00:39:05.680 The uptick in maternal mortality rates has baffled experts, doctors, healthcare professionals.

00:39:11.340 They have no idea what's going on.

00:39:13.960 Now, one of the theories is, is that it's tied to the growing opioid crisis and drug overdoses,

00:39:20.660 as well as an unexplainable increase of suicides among women who have just given birth.

00:39:26.980 We don't know.

00:39:29.300 They have concluded that recent cuts to Planned Parenthood are not the cause.

00:39:35.740 How could they be?

00:39:37.120 The rates have been increasing for the last 15 years.

00:39:41.100 But Minnesota Democratic Representative Keith Ellison wants you to know that the experts are wrong.

00:39:48.740 And we need to stop looking for actual medical, scientific reasons because Republicans are murdering these women. 1.00

00:39:58.820 His latest rant at an event hosted by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee.

00:40:03.980 Did you know that in Missouri and in Texas and maybe other places, maternal mortality has risen?

00:40:12.440 Women are dying because we are losing elections. 1.00

00:40:18.960 We don't have the right to lose a damn election.

00:40:22.680 We have to win.

00:40:24.180 Unfortunately, in America in 2018, facts and empirical data don't often pass as truth anymore.

00:40:35.160 Narrative has become the truth.

00:40:37.200 And that narrative is always tied to winning.

00:40:41.400 The narrative of the day holds Republicans and Trump out as the villains who are now killing women.

00:40:47.620 Villains who are out to harm women and kill them by cutting funds to Planned Parenthood.

00:40:52.340 The organization responsible for roughly 300,000 killings of children every year.

00:41:00.200 I would guess those would be pretty harmful, certainly for the child, but also for the mother.

00:41:07.680 But that's just another fact that doesn't fit the narrative.

00:41:16.920 It's Tuesday, April 17th.

00:41:19.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:22.340 Rand Paul just came out and said that he doesn't think that those chemical weapons were used by Assad.

00:41:30.200 Did he say that?

00:41:32.500 He said Assad would have to be the dumbest person on the planet because he knew that the rest of the world would turn against him.

00:41:41.020 So there's only two choices.

00:41:42.600 He's either that stupid or it wasn't him.

00:41:45.980 Okay, Rand.

00:41:49.160 All right.

00:41:50.640 I'm disturbed by the growing number of people who, and I'm not putting Rand in this, you know, let Rand speak for himself.

00:41:58.800 I think he's on with us tomorrow, is it?

00:42:00.780 Is he?

00:42:01.120 He's on this week with us, I think.

00:42:02.320 I'd like to talk to him about that.

00:42:03.920 But, you know, there is a history of Russia duping people.

00:42:08.960 I don't know if you know that.

00:42:10.000 I want to talk a little bit about that, but I want to come in through a side door that, you know, most people, most Americans don't even remember anymore.

00:42:20.980 Chappaquiddick, Mary Jo Kopechny, just about a week ago or a few days ago, we had her relatives on with us for about half an hour.

00:42:31.900 They're going to come down and spend some more time with us because their voice has not been heard on a national stage until now.

00:42:40.520 And we talked to them about Mary Jo Kopechny, the young staffer that was left to die in a car by Senator Ed Kennedy and wanted to know who she really was and what is the truth.

00:42:56.180 She idealized Bobby, and that was the only thing that brought her out of the South.

00:43:01.640 She was down South during the civil rights days, and we were very worried about her teaching school in Alabama.

00:43:06.740 But when she had the opportunity to work in Washington with the people who were making the rules, making the laws, and making things better for everyone and equal rights, she came right up to Washington.

00:43:20.180 Yeah, she was a speechwriter for Bobby, right?

00:43:23.260 She helped him write his speech announcing he was going to run for president.

00:43:29.300 Yes.

00:43:29.560 Wow.

00:43:30.180 Yeah, she was smart.

00:43:31.700 Well, she was one of the older boiler room girls, too, though. 0.88

00:43:34.380 The one thing we all walked out of this movie saying is, how did she not get out, and he did?

00:43:42.300 Is there any thoughts on this?

00:43:46.360 I wish I knew that.

00:43:47.920 Mary Jo was a wonderful swimmer, and her face couldn't have been more than a foot from air, even though she was inside the car trying to breathe the air that was in there.

00:43:59.720 Why didn't she get out?

00:44:01.080 If you want my opinion on it, when they did the inquest, there was blood that went down the back of her blouse, probably to the small of her back.

00:44:13.080 They dismissed it as some sort of nonsense as foam from her mouth. 0.90

00:44:17.180 But I always wondered that.

00:44:18.640 Why didn't she get out of the car?

00:44:20.440 And I personally think that she was injured inside that car, and she may not have been all the way conscious either.

00:44:26.500 I think instinctually, when John Farrar pulled her out of the car, instinctually, she had found an air pocket up by what would be the foot hole because the car was upside down, so it would be where you would put your feet.

00:44:40.100 That's a question that's puzzled us for years, and we don't have a lot of answers about Chappaquiddick, but what we've done is we'll give you who Mary Jo was.

00:44:48.380 So we can tell you what probably didn't happen, for instance, this rumor about her being in an affair with Ted Kennedy.

00:44:55.300 There's a good chance that that never happened because of who Mary Jo was and her upbringing and her Catholic and her values and things like that.

00:45:02.960 So when you find out what didn't happen, it kind of leads you down the path of what possibly could happen.

00:45:08.040 And I wish more people would do that that were there or that know things.

00:45:11.200 I wish more people would come forward with whatever little pieces of information that they may have, and that at least we know are fact.

00:45:17.960 These girls all came together because they had scattered, and this was their last chance to see each other.

00:45:23.280 Bobby had died.

00:45:24.340 A few of them, including Mary Jo, had been chosen to clean up the office, send things to the museums, send things home, send things to the office.

00:45:33.560 It was a very tragic task for them because they had loved the senator.

00:45:41.160 And so this was a chance for them to be together.

00:45:44.000 But no one has ever come to Gwen and Jo and said, I saw Mary Jo.

00:45:48.780 She was happy.

00:45:49.880 We were looking forward to this or that.

00:45:52.280 And so they've never had the last few hours of their daughter's life.

00:45:56.260 And I think that's a terrible tragedy.

00:45:58.020 So wait, so wait, none of the boiler girls ever got together with the family and... 0.84

00:46:04.680 No.

00:46:05.180 They were at her funeral.

00:46:07.400 But Gwen and Jo were so sedated, to tell you the truth, that...

00:46:12.800 And none of them were ever introduced to any of us, so we never got a chance to talk to them either.

00:46:19.120 And afterward, when it was calmed down and they thought that, well, now the senator will come forward and talk to them,

00:46:26.460 he did call them, ask them to come to Hyannis Port, and they thought, well, now we'll find out what happened that night.

00:46:34.860 But when they got there, they walked into a cocktail party.

00:46:38.040 He came over and said hello and disappeared.

00:46:41.240 And so they turned around and went home and more or less hibernated the rest of their lives.

00:46:46.820 But he never, as far as I know, never even said, I'm sorry.

00:46:50.840 The name of the book is Our Mary Jo.

00:46:53.160 So it's available everywhere.

00:46:55.760 And I haven't read it yet, but I hope that it picks the story up before and after the movie Chappaquiddick.

00:47:08.040 Yeah.

00:47:08.960 Yeah, it starts from actually her heritage and where she came from.

00:47:14.500 It continues up past her death into Gwen and Jo's life without her.

00:47:18.380 It's a comprehensive look.

00:47:20.460 And what we did is we took all the letters that we had received from people around the world,

00:47:24.600 well, Gwen and Jo had received, and we had actually inherited them.

00:47:27.800 And we put them in the book to tell Mary Jo's story through the eyes of other people, through her friends, her co-workers.

00:47:34.660 Now, she was great, but not because we say so, but because everyone who knew her said so.

00:47:39.500 So all the people surrounding her had an opportunity to go on and be lawyers and be publicists and have very successful lives.

00:47:46.280 So we'd only assume Mary Jo would also have done that, too.

00:47:49.040 So this gives her a second chance.

00:47:50.900 The name of the book is Our Mary Jo.

00:47:53.380 It is Mary Jo Kopechny's story.

00:47:55.860 The name of the movie is Chappaquiddick.

00:47:58.020 You need to see it.

00:47:59.340 It's unbelievable.

00:48:00.820 Thank you so much.

00:48:01.860 Paul Kangor, he is an author of a book called Dupes, How America's Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for a Century.

00:48:12.980 And I want to talk to him a little bit about how the Soviets manipulated people in Congress and the media here in just a minute.

00:48:21.180 But I want to stop real quick and ask him about Senator Kennedy and the Chappaquiddick story.

00:48:28.180 Hi, Paul.

00:48:28.560 How are you?

00:48:30.020 Good, Glenn.

00:48:30.740 Hey, thanks for having me on.

00:48:31.860 I was shocked at that interview.

00:48:35.980 They've never really done a national interview before and that nobody ever talked to the family about it.

00:48:45.860 And so they kind of just the parents just died in isolation and nobody ever said anything.

00:48:51.920 And most people don't know the story now.

00:48:55.040 Yes, no, that's exactly right.

00:48:56.520 In fact, I had caught the interview at the Blaze.

00:48:58.840 I saw that you had posted it there.

00:49:00.200 And, you know, the original book that I think a lot of the movie seems to be based on, I haven't seen the movie yet.

00:49:06.800 It's really good.

00:49:07.840 It's really good.

00:49:08.780 Yeah, that's what I hear.

00:49:10.460 It was Leo DeMore's book, which was called Senatorial Privilege, the Chappaquiddick cover-up.

00:49:16.740 And that came out in the late 80s.

00:49:19.080 And I remember at the time, I was an undergrad.

00:49:22.320 I was totally apolitical.

00:49:25.960 I was like a pre-med major.

00:49:27.960 I had no interest in politics.

00:49:29.640 And I was just flipping the channels one night.

00:49:31.600 And I think it was on Larry King Live.

00:49:33.860 Leo DeMore, the author, was on.

00:49:36.520 And he's the guy that broke a lot of this.

00:49:39.160 And his original publisher, I think it was Random House, had spiked the book after giving him $150,000 advance.

00:49:48.260 And that was after pressure from the Kennedy family.

00:49:50.720 And it was Regnery, Regnery that published the book.

00:49:55.240 That finally came out.

00:49:57.280 Leo DeMore would have a tragic end, too.

00:49:59.520 He actually took his own life in the late 1990s.

00:50:04.400 But it was the first time that I heard all that information.

00:50:08.320 I went out.

00:50:08.980 I got the book.

00:50:09.780 I read it.

00:50:10.860 And you probably know this as well as I do, at least from what we know.

00:50:15.080 But she appears to have suffocated.

00:50:18.060 Right, Glenn?

00:50:18.640 I mean, I don't think she drowned.

00:50:21.060 And she suffocated because there was...

00:50:23.600 I mean, my understanding is that the car didn't go into Cape Cod.

00:50:28.360 It went into a pond.

00:50:29.780 Yeah, it did.

00:50:30.620 The bottom of the vehicle was actually exposed.

00:50:34.080 And she had just enough air.

00:50:38.420 They thought that she might have lived for up to three hours.

00:50:41.300 And help was literally steps away.

00:50:44.400 He just walked away from the scene.

00:50:45.880 And so nobody knew until the morning.

00:50:47.380 And he went away from the scene or walked away or ran away because he didn't want to get hit with drunk driving, surely, right?

00:50:57.380 And had he done that and he would have been accused of drunk driving and killing somebody in the process, that would have hurt his career.

00:51:05.760 He was in line.

00:51:08.140 He hoped to be the next Kennedy who would run for president of the United States.

00:51:12.980 So following JFK, following RFK. 0.65

00:51:17.180 And I mean, the tragedy of the Kennedy family.

00:51:19.320 Bobby Kennedy was assassinated just the year before.

00:51:23.280 That was in June 1968.

00:51:26.740 And then you go back even a couple more Kennedy boys. 0.67

00:51:30.960 JFK was assassinated.

00:51:32.780 But Lee Harvey Oswald, November 63.

00:51:36.440 And then there was also another Kennedy boy, Joe Jr., who some people say this was the most impressive Kennedy boy of all of them.

00:51:44.840 And he got killed in World War II.

00:51:46.300 Yeah, it's you know, it's now that there were tragedies that happened, but this was not one of the tragedies.

00:51:51.840 This was this was Ted Kennedy being a bad guy.

00:51:56.000 So, you know, you can't link this to the the the Kennedy curse.

00:52:00.720 This one happened because Ted Kennedy did it.

00:52:04.220 I want to stop there.

00:52:05.520 We're talking to Paul Kangor.

00:52:06.920 He's the author of Dupes, How America's Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for Over a Century.

00:52:12.040 I want to take a quick break and come back and talk to Paul.

00:52:15.060 He's a he's a political science professor and has written extensively on on history.

00:52:21.480 And we go back to Ted Kennedy and his relationship with the Soviet Union and how he was, I think, willingly duped by the Soviet Union and how this has happened before.

00:52:35.100 And and I, I think, Paul, and I'd love to hear your opinion.

00:52:38.980 It's happening to members of the press and members on the right and the left right now in Syria with Russia.

00:52:46.400 We go there next.

00:54:02.200 Mercury.

00:54:09.660 Glenn Beck.

00:54:12.340 We go to Paul Kangor.

00:54:16.620 Paul, I'm I'm watching the news come out today where I'm watching some media people start to hold up Russia as the good guys in this in this battle over in the Middle East.

00:54:33.040 And they are they are siding with Iran and Syria.

00:54:38.880 You know, your allies would tell you a little bit something about if you're on the right side or not.

00:54:43.520 This isn't the first time that Russia has used members of Congress or politicians or the media or people on the streets and turn them into little advocates for them.

00:54:57.880 Right.

00:54:59.360 That's exactly right.

00:55:00.500 Yeah.

00:55:00.660 The Russians are great at doing this. 1.00

00:55:02.720 Glenn.

00:55:03.360 I mean, they they've been masters of manipulation for decades.

00:55:06.560 They they had a department of agit prop agitation and propaganda.

00:55:10.560 They specialize in disinformation.

00:55:13.200 The Russian word for it was desinformatsia, which is a long, clunky word.

00:55:18.220 But I mentioned it because because they practically pioneered it.

00:55:22.040 I mean, they they were great at learning how to work people in the American media, people in the American Congress.

00:55:29.540 And they they always targeted progressives because, you know, they figured progressives being on the left were far less anti-communist.

00:55:37.700 They were far less anti-Russian.

00:55:39.520 And those are the people that they could dupe and sucker.

00:55:42.060 And in fact, it would have been Vladimir Putin's KGB.

00:55:47.520 Putin was there throughout the 1980s that that that that duped and used and hoodwinked Ted Kennedy, you know, just to carry over from our last segment and Chappaquiddick.

00:55:58.320 They they worked Ted Kennedy over a really good a number of times in the 1970s and 1980s.

00:56:06.280 And at the word, the worst example of this was when Kennedy and we actually have now a May 14th, 1983 memo from the head of the KGB, Viktor Chebrukov.

00:56:18.060 This would have been Putin's boss at the time.

00:56:20.860 And it was directly addressed to the head of the Soviet Union, Yuri Andropov.

00:56:25.540 And you remember Andropov was a bad dude.

00:56:29.200 This was a really bad guy.

00:56:32.380 And this was all about, as the actual document says, quote, regarding Senator Kennedy's request to the general secretary of the Communist Party and drop off.

00:56:44.000 And and that request, I think this fits perfectly with with exactly what you're talking about.

00:56:49.180 Kennedy in in this note, again, communication directly from the head of the KGB.

00:56:55.540 To the head of the Soviet Union. 0.82

00:56:57.100 And it was communicated directly on the scene by by John Tunney, who is a former Democratic senator from California.

00:57:05.340 He had been a law school roommate of Ted Kennedy.

00:57:08.300 And Kennedy there tells the Russians that there's this bad situation internationally where the situation is deteriorating in U.S.-Soviet relations.

00:57:19.780 He's very troubled by this, but he blames it on Reagan.

00:57:23.540 He doesn't blame it on the Russians.

00:57:25.860 He blames it on Reagan.

00:57:27.700 The memo says the problem was Reagan's belligerence compounded by Reagan's stubbornness.

00:57:33.640 And here's the exact language, Glenn.

00:57:35.200 According to Kennedy, wrote Chebrakov, the current threat is due to the president's refusal to engage any modification to his politics.

00:57:45.160 And so that being the case, Kennedy actually offers and it says here, Kennedy believes that given the state of current affairs and in the interest of peace, it would be prudent and timely to undertake the following steps to counter the militaristic policies of Reagan.

00:58:03.360 And among those steps, Kennedy offered to connect Andropov and the Russians and the Kremlin with sympathetic people in the American media.

00:58:14.200 And the memo actually even notes Walter Cronkite and Barbara Walters as two people that the Russians could be connected to.

00:58:23.680 So kind of the moral of the story and the overarching angle here that continues to this day, the Russians always knew and always understood, and this is going on now with Syria, that if there's a Republican in the White House that they don't like and who's doing something in foreign policy that they don't like,

00:58:45.640 they could always count on sympathetic people, liberals, progressives in the American media, in Congress, and in the Senate, to step up and help them out to be dupes.

00:58:57.180 Paul Kangor, the name of the book is Dupes, How America's Adversaries Have Been Manipulating Progressives for a Century.

00:59:05.020 Available now.

00:59:05.840 Glenn Beck, Mercury.

00:59:07.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:59:17.280 You know, talking about the Syrian thing, this is why it's so important for you to understand what's happening in Syria.

00:59:24.560 This is not about Syria.

00:59:28.000 It's really not.

00:59:28.680 It's not even about the United States and Russia.

00:59:32.680 It is about Israel.

00:59:35.180 Well, Hamas and Hezbollah, Hezbollah is the army of Iran. 0.64

00:59:48.100 Hezbollah has come out and along with the Al-Quds fighters, which means Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Quds meaning Jerusalem.

00:59:55.620 They are the armies that are being sent in from Iran.

01:00:00.700 Iran sees weakness in Assad, and Assad is allowing them to come in and occupy this space, and they are trying to take and build a crescent-shaped Iran and trying to come over to the top of Israel. 0.89

01:00:23.980 And we know this because in Israel, I'm sorry, in Syria, the commander of the Iranian troops has just said recently their action is almost complete.

01:00:39.960 Their encirclement of Israel is almost complete. 0.99

01:00:44.340 They have Syria, they have Lebanon, they now have Gaza as well.

01:00:50.120 The protesters in Gaza sent a viral love letter out to the head general of the Al-Quds fighting brigade, which is Iranian, saying, you know, we love you, we're waiting for you, hurry soon.

01:01:05.460 And the plan is to overwhelm Israel and take Jerusalem. 0.97

01:01:16.820 This is in their end times theology.

01:01:22.780 It happens to be in ours as well, but they believe they are enacting their end times theology.

01:01:29.980 This is the way they hasten the return of the promised one.

01:01:33.340 This is really about Israel.

01:01:36.520 The Palestinians are being stirred up by Iran right now, and they're being used to try to penetrate the border wall in the Gaza Strip. 0.74

01:01:49.040 They are causing all kinds of distress there, where a proxy war between the United States and Russia is happening, and no one is talking about Israel.

01:01:59.260 Israel's 70th birthday or anniversary is right around the corner.

01:02:04.480 In fact, next week, here at our studios in Las Colinas, Texas, there is a Israel's 70th celebrate the miracle dinner that is going on.

01:02:20.400 We don't open our doors for everybody, but we wanted to open our doors for this group that is celebrating the 70th birthday of Israel.

01:02:33.300 I'm going to be speaking.

01:02:35.000 Daniel Lappin, I think, is speaking.

01:02:38.620 Rafael Cruz, I think, is speaking.

01:02:40.620 If you've never heard Rafael Cruz speak, he is fantastic.

01:02:43.680 But it's a dinner in support of Israel, and that is happening, I believe, is it next Thursday, April 26th?

01:02:52.700 It's a cocktail reception, dinner, and then the program and dessert and everything else.

01:02:57.500 You can find your tickets at hayovel, H-A-Y-O-V-E-L, yahovel.com, slash Israel70, or at glennbeck.com.

01:03:08.640 We will point you in the right direction.

01:03:10.520 Interesting you bring up Rafael Cruz after a segment about the Kennedys.

01:03:15.200 Yeah, I know.

01:03:16.280 Isn't that crazy?

01:03:17.100 I'm sure that was a coincidence.

01:03:18.120 Yeah, I'm sure it was.

01:03:19.520 I thought you were going to say, interesting, you bring up Rafael Cruz and Israel, and we're just six days away from the rapture.

01:03:30.280 Right, and you get this speech in?

01:03:32.780 It's more than six days away.

01:03:34.200 Why are you bothering?

01:03:35.300 You know, just, I'm probably going to stay.

01:03:38.700 I mean, I'll be chosen to go, but I'm probably going to stay.

01:03:41.640 Oh, really?

01:03:42.220 Yeah, yeah.

01:03:43.320 David Mead has come out and said that April 23rd, the sun and the moon will be in Virgo, as will Jupiter, which represents the Messiah.

01:03:51.100 Isn't this the same guy?

01:03:53.120 Yeah, what?

01:03:54.320 Isn't this the same guy that we had on?

01:03:56.000 Don't pay attention to that.

01:03:57.080 What are you talking about?

01:03:57.580 Remember, we had the guy on who was saying that the end of it.

01:04:00.980 No, he's somebody completely discredited.

01:04:03.460 It's a totally different guy with the same name.

01:04:05.980 Oh.

01:04:06.500 And voice.

01:04:08.260 But you haven't even heard him.

01:04:09.620 How did you?

01:04:10.080 Hmm?

01:04:10.260 Anyway, he says that the date of the rapture is April 23rd, and it's the alignment of the stars.

01:04:21.360 And so expect the rapture.

01:04:25.100 You don't have to pack anything, because you're going as you came.

01:04:30.540 But for the rest of us, we'll still be broadcasting on Friday.

01:04:36.220 That's sad.

01:04:37.020 Or is it April 23rd?

01:04:38.800 When is April 23rd?

01:04:39.780 What day?

01:04:40.940 Monday.

01:04:41.980 This coming Monday?

01:04:43.500 Six days away.

01:04:45.460 Yeah.

01:04:46.000 There's a giant sign behind you that says, Rapture Countdown, six days.

01:04:49.360 So you should know that.

01:04:51.660 Oh my gosh, there it is.

01:04:53.360 Rapture Countdown, six days.

01:04:55.760 That's an internal message, just so we all know.

01:04:58.440 Oh, that's not for the show?

01:04:59.600 No.

01:05:00.380 No.

01:05:02.160 Stu, I know you want to get to...

01:05:04.980 I know you want to get to some politics today.

01:05:10.380 I do.

01:05:11.120 There's more important things than politics, though.

01:05:13.020 What is it?

01:05:14.240 What fossil fuels are doing to our world.

01:05:17.740 See, you don't understand.

01:05:19.100 That's not a political issue.

01:05:20.320 Is that more important than the tiger that is running amok in Manhattan?

01:05:23.980 Um, I think they're probably related.

01:05:28.700 Give me a little bit of yours.

01:05:30.080 Give me a little bit of yours.

01:05:30.980 A green activist who was a pioneering lawyer for gay and transgender rights, including the

01:05:35.120 notorious Boys Don't Cry rape murder case, committed suicide by setting himself on fire

01:05:41.120 on Saturday morning in Prospect Park in Brooklyn to show how bad fossil fuels were.

01:05:47.920 He burned himself to death using fossil fuels to reflect how mankind was likewise killing

01:05:54.620 itself.

01:05:55.840 Police sources say he left a note in a manila envelope, which killed trees.

01:06:01.760 No, I don't think it was.

01:06:03.500 Oh, it was just away from the body?

01:06:04.940 It was just away.

01:06:05.360 Okay.

01:06:05.780 All right.

01:06:06.160 I assume he wasn't pulling onto it.

01:06:07.420 It's a terrible way to happen.

01:06:08.240 Don't let this blow into the fire.

01:06:09.920 I'm going to leave this here, but don't let it blow into my fire.

01:06:14.760 I'm sorry.

01:06:15.360 Go ahead.

01:06:15.560 My early death by fossil fuels reflects what we are doing to ourselves.

01:06:20.540 It's interesting because if people really were dying because of fossil fuels, why would

01:06:25.940 you need to kill yourself?

01:06:27.200 Right.

01:06:27.620 You would just say, hey, let me show you this video.

01:06:30.500 Or let me go to this area where everyone's dying of fossil fuels.

01:06:34.280 Instead, he had to set himself on fire because fossil fuels aren't doing the thing he says they're

01:06:39.000 doing.

01:06:40.200 A senior attorney with Lombada Legal Defense.

01:06:43.480 He was a lead lawyer in a 2000 lawsuit about boys don't cry.

01:06:47.520 Of course, you remember, you're a big fan, Glenn, of that movie, 1999, Hilary Swank.

01:06:51.260 Oh, gee.

01:06:51.960 I love that.

01:06:53.180 Also fought for the rights of gay high school students in Salt Lake City to organize a club.

01:06:59.280 He argued against discrimination in the Boy Scouts of America and the military.

01:07:04.560 And then decided, you know, the temperature's gone up by 0.9 degrees.

01:07:08.380 Let's let myself on fire.

01:07:09.560 Yeah, makes sense.

01:07:11.020 Makes sense.

01:07:11.580 You know, like, I feel like if you're going to light yourself on fire, but we know this

01:07:15.380 from the Arab Spring, right?

01:07:17.620 Guy lights himself on fire, starts the Arab Spring. 1.00

01:07:20.900 There's a big movement that kind of is, that comes out of that, right?

01:07:24.880 There's been other examples of this.

01:07:26.740 The lighting yourself on fire usually signifies, I think I'm starting something big.

01:07:31.180 I'm telling you about the story on Tuesday.

01:07:34.540 This occurred on Saturday.

01:07:36.720 Kind of a failure.

01:07:39.080 It seems like you're going to burn yourself alive.

01:07:41.500 Yeah, you make sure a camera's there or something.

01:07:43.160 Right.

01:07:43.420 Like, you don't do it in the middle of the night and leave a manila envelope next to you.

01:07:46.880 Yeah.

01:07:47.100 I'm going to say you shouldn't set yourself on fire.

01:07:52.480 Just blanket statement?

01:07:53.600 A blanket statement.

01:07:54.460 Yeah.

01:07:54.780 Just don't do it.

01:07:56.020 Just don't do it.

01:07:57.460 Do you want to expound?

01:07:58.520 Why?

01:07:59.220 No, I just think I'm just going to, I think it stands on its own.

01:08:02.400 However, not in New York.

01:08:04.700 In New York, everything is different.

01:08:07.320 Some stories, some stories from New York, they don't even, no matter how big, imagine

01:08:14.480 if, let's say your town, there was a lion, was it a lion, a tiger?

01:08:20.760 There was a tiger loose in your town.

01:08:23.760 Do you think that would make big news?

01:08:25.780 I mean, at least all of the, it'd be front page of the paper, don't you think?

01:08:28.620 Sure, probably.

01:08:29.480 Okay, New York Times, this is how crazy New York is.

01:08:32.020 Tiger is loose in the streets of Manhattan.

01:08:34.420 Manhattan, it's not on the front page of the New York Times, okay?

01:08:39.020 Helicopters were out because they had several residents call and say, there is a tiger loose

01:08:44.660 on the streets of Manhattan, and it was a, it was a, it's a social media frenzy, but things

01:08:52.260 are so crazy, this guy's setting himself on fire.

01:08:54.340 Yeah, yeah, yeah, tiger, we'll get to that.

01:08:55.640 We're trying to put this guy out first.

01:08:58.860 So it, it, uh, it was happening, uh, this tiger was loose.

01:09:03.540 Between 166th, uh, street, uh, in, in, in Harlem and, uh, and St. Nicholas Avenue.

01:09:14.220 It happens around 830 in the morning and they, the, the fire department, everybody, I mean,

01:09:21.260 who do you call?

01:09:21.760 There's a tiger.

01:09:23.160 Who do you call?

01:09:24.640 Well, they call police.

01:09:25.700 Who do the police call?

01:09:26.580 They call the firemen and the firemen don't have anybody else to call.

01:09:28.920 They're like, oh crap, I got to do this too.

01:09:30.800 So they go out and they start searching for this tiger.

01:09:36.260 Now these people in Manhattan, you know, they've lived in the city all their life, but they're

01:09:41.400 not idiots, right?

01:09:43.460 Of course not.

01:09:46.620 Fire, fire, firemen, uh, capture the, uh, the tiger.

01:09:51.680 And it is identified, um, by, um, Tony.

01:09:57.640 No, no.

01:09:59.040 Uh, by the, the, the, um, by the people who, uh, called, uh, police as the tiger that they

01:10:06.100 had seen it.

01:10:06.860 Uh, a problem is it, uh, it wasn't it.

01:10:10.160 It was, it was, uh, it's what we would call a raccoon.

01:10:13.680 So, no, I mean, they're from the city.

01:10:20.140 You can't expect them to be able to tell the difference between a tiger and a raccoon.

01:10:24.060 I mean, come on.

01:10:25.200 That's pretty large difference between.

01:10:27.740 I don't see it.

01:10:28.260 They both have stripes.

01:10:31.520 It's true.

01:10:32.900 So, I mean, I've seen, I've seen Tony the tiger.

01:10:36.200 He's, he's as big.

01:10:37.580 I mean, look how big he is.

01:10:38.460 He's, he's, he can fit on your, your cereal box.

01:10:41.180 I mean, that's how big tigers are.

01:10:42.860 No, that's not.

01:10:44.520 Pretty sure that's right.

01:10:45.140 Not life size.

01:10:46.040 Yeah.

01:10:46.300 Tony.

01:10:46.800 This is not a normal, this is a normal size raccoon, by the way.

01:10:49.600 You may have lost sight.

01:10:51.680 You may have lost touch with nature if you're living in New York, I think is the lesson

01:10:54.820 here.

01:10:55.180 Yeah.

01:10:55.440 I think, I think you might've lost touch with reality if you live in Manhattan and you

01:10:59.160 think a, a, a tiger, uh, is raccoon, uh, or, you know, or it was just a really cute

01:11:05.480 tiger.

01:11:05.760 That would be a cute, that would actually, no, that would just be a cat.

01:11:08.880 So let me tell you about a gold line.

01:11:11.500 Uh, there's a couple of stories here that I pulled today for future shows that you, uh,

01:11:17.380 should know about.

01:11:18.460 Here's, here's one.

01:11:19.940 Um, first domino falls in Illinois.

01:11:24.200 The, uh, the, I think it's, uh, Danville pension.

01:11:30.920 The Illinois comptroller intercepted the municipality tax revenues, more than 400 police and fire

01:11:37.300 pension funds, 63% of Illinois, 651 total downstate public safety funds received less

01:11:44.820 funding than was required from their cities.

01:11:46.860 The first city has gone, uh, belly up here with their, uh, with their pension fund.

01:11:53.080 More than 400 funds are to follow.

01:11:56.480 Also, there's a story about how the dollar is falling, and this is a victory for Trump

01:12:02.140 because it will mean more saving, more, um, uh, spending by other countries.

01:12:06.740 Our trade imbalance will, will change.

01:12:09.100 But what that means is your dollar, your dollar is falling, which means if you left money in

01:12:15.980 the bank, you're losing money every day because we're devaluing the dollar.

01:12:21.160 So you have less purchasing power.

01:12:23.080 People overseas, as their money goes up against the dollar, they can buy more of our stuff,

01:12:28.560 but we can buy less.

01:12:31.140 This is the game that's being played in Washington and it could be spun, you know, any way you

01:12:36.060 like, but the truth is when the dollar loses value, you lose money and purchasing power.

01:12:42.600 And that's when gold goes up.

01:12:45.340 If I may suggest, please call Goldline, 1-866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.

01:12:53.980 Apparently the administration is very thrilled and so are some that are just looking at the

01:12:59.140 trade imbalance saying, oh, this is great.

01:13:01.120 The dollar is, is caving and, uh, it's, uh, the, the currencies all around the world are

01:13:06.220 going up.

01:13:07.800 No, that's, that's not a good thing for you.

01:13:10.300 It might be a good thing for the stats, but for you, it's not good.

01:13:15.080 Call Goldline now, hedge your bet, spread your risk out a bit and have some physical

01:13:21.580 gold on hand.

01:13:23.240 1-866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.

01:13:29.500 Glenn Beck, Mercury.

01:13:32.040 Glenn Beck.

01:13:43.420 So there's been a ruling in the Supreme Court and it was split across, uh, party lines.

01:13:49.500 Well, except for one, uh, voting with the now majority and making it the majority, um,

01:13:56.500 was Gorsuch and it was on immigration and the majority was the, the liberal side.

01:14:03.840 Kagan, Breyer, uh, Sotomayor, Ginsburg and Gorsuch voting together on an immigration law.

01:14:10.280 I'm sure this isn't pissing Trump off today.

01:14:12.020 Oh my gosh.

01:14:12.780 Uh, and you know, the, the law basically says you get an automatic deportation if you commit

01:14:18.780 a crime of violence and the Gorsuch argument is essentially crime of violence is too vague.

01:14:24.020 It's, it's, what is a crime of violence?

01:14:25.760 You need to actually list exactly what you, what you're, it's actually what, what I thought

01:14:29.960 of when I first heard the story.

01:14:31.940 I was like, what, what is a crime of violence?

01:14:33.840 Is a, is drunk driving a crime of violence or not?

01:14:39.800 You know, what, what is it?

01:14:41.440 Right.

01:14:41.780 What, what's the threshold here?

01:14:43.180 And that's kind of the argument that Gorsuch makes, which I think does make some sense though.

01:14:47.720 Um, it's not going to make Trump's day.

01:14:50.820 It's certainly not.

01:14:51.720 And also, I mean, you know, I'm just kind of, you know, we're just skimming the basics

01:14:54.900 of this case.

01:14:55.640 I mean, I think there's an argument to be made that that can be true.

01:14:58.860 Um, though, you know, there's a separate dissent.

01:15:02.660 There's a, there's separate, several dissents and several opinions.

01:15:06.560 Um, Clarence Thomas writing one of them.

01:15:09.120 I was, I was watching, um, I was reading an article yesterday about how the, the, the court

01:15:13.440 has turned, uh, more to the left over the years.

01:15:16.560 Um, and they show a ranking of where these guys vote and you see every one of them has

01:15:22.620 these wild swings, you know, even Scalia was more conservative than he, where he was at

01:15:27.480 the end.

01:15:28.020 You see people like Kennedy, uh, Stevens, who was actually started on the slightly conservative

01:15:33.540 side and then went completely liberal.

01:15:35.780 You look at the line of Clarence Thomas.

01:15:38.040 It is always the most conservative and the most consistent.

01:15:43.900 It shouldn't change, right?

01:15:45.140 You shouldn't, you shouldn't be going up and down on these scales.

01:15:47.340 They should, you should be, your, your, your line should look like Clarence Thomas's line.

01:15:51.760 And, uh, you know, it's hard to argue.

01:15:53.380 Well, you could be, you could be constitutional, which would sometimes put you into the, uh, social

01:16:00.600 liberal category.

01:16:02.280 Possibly.

01:16:02.640 You know what I mean?

01:16:03.760 Uh, but, uh, you know, Clarence Thomas has gone through a wall of fire.

01:16:07.260 He knows exactly who he was when he got in Glenn and he hasn't changed.

01:16:12.060 Mercury.

01:16:19.200 Love courage.

01:16:22.120 Truth.

01:16:23.840 Glenn Beck.

01:16:24.640 Have you noticed how many politicians don't know when it's time to call it quits?

01:16:30.100 I mean, the career politicians, like 75 year old Joe Biden, guys like Joe cannot let it go.

01:16:36.200 He is only surpassed by, I think, pro athletes, uh, and Hillary Clinton as to, you know, knowing

01:16:43.020 when it's time to walk away.

01:16:44.860 Apparently out of work, Joe needs something to do because he was there Sunday keeping his

01:16:50.680 foot in the door for a 2020 presidential run by showing up on Al Sharpton's MSNBC show.

01:16:57.540 I, I, I, I didn't know he even had one still, but apparently he does.

01:17:02.200 And Joe Biden knew about it, or at least one of his advisors or somebody knew about it,

01:17:07.160 had heard rumor that Al Sharpton had a show.

01:17:09.680 And so he showed up Biden's eight year paid vacation as Obama's vice president.

01:17:15.140 Apparently wasn't enough of a victory lap for this former Senator from Delaware.

01:17:18.780 He needs one more go around.

01:17:21.500 And I guess the prospect of a schoolyard rumble with president Trump is just too good to pass

01:17:26.840 up.

01:17:27.200 Part of me would like to see it.

01:17:29.940 Part of me is two junkyard dogs going at it.

01:17:32.660 There's part of me that says, yeah, let him fight.

01:17:36.340 But old habits die hard for career politicians.

01:17:39.320 If we concede that guys like Biden cannot let go of the limelight, couldn't it at least make

01:17:47.480 it interesting and try to be original?

01:17:50.480 Because he's not doing that.

01:17:52.380 He hasn't even officially announced his candidacy yet, but on Sharpton's show, he pulled out the

01:17:56.860 same old tired party lines about Republicans trying to keep working class people and back 0.87

01:18:00.860 black people down. 1.00

01:18:02.760 You know, they don't want any black people voting for them. 1.00

01:18:05.140 Listen to this.

01:18:06.640 You realize just this past year in 24 states, the administration's allies have have introduced

01:18:14.700 60 pieces of legislation or maybe 70 pieces of legislation to curtail the franchise.

01:18:22.640 Look, it's what these guys are all about, man.

01:18:25.220 Yeah.

01:18:25.660 Republicans don't want working class people voting.

01:18:28.580 They don't want black folks voting. 1.00

01:18:30.140 I mean, it's just like, hey, let's roll a doobie, man.

01:18:36.640 He's just a man of the people.

01:18:37.740 He can't finish those G's.

01:18:39.280 He's not going to get to the G in the world.

01:18:40.940 It's voting.

01:18:41.560 He doesn't have time for that.

01:18:42.680 He's a man of the people.

01:18:44.120 Yeah.

01:18:44.200 He's a man.

01:18:45.340 Hey, man.

01:18:46.540 All right.

01:18:47.260 Right on.

01:18:48.440 Keep on trucking.

01:18:49.740 I mean, he is.

01:18:50.980 I just got to see him in his keep on trucking t-shirt from the 1970s.

01:18:54.740 And I am set.

01:18:56.580 Now, this particular line is frayed and full of holes.

01:19:00.980 It doesn't even make sense.

01:19:02.480 But, you know, that doesn't stop him from trotting it out, man.

01:19:06.620 All right.

01:19:07.840 Are you the man?

01:19:09.660 Of course, Republicans want as many black people to vote as possible.

01:19:13.080 They just want him to vote for Republicans.

01:19:15.460 Funny how the same strategy applies regardless of race, isn't it?

01:19:19.240 Can you vote?

01:19:20.620 Yeah.

01:19:21.420 Will you vote for us?

01:19:22.560 Yeah.

01:19:22.960 If Joe Biden really wants to keep score over which party has fought more for fundamental

01:19:28.600 rights of black Americans, it's not really going to like the historical evidence all that

01:19:33.020 much.

01:19:33.340 But then again, it's on the Al Sharpton show.

01:19:37.340 So evidence and truth doesn't matter.

01:19:41.660 This is a guy who had to drop out of the race in 1988.

01:19:44.720 He was running for president.

01:19:46.440 He was caught plagiarizing speeches.

01:19:48.400 Too many career politicians like Joe Biden.

01:19:54.520 Too many of them just can't walk away.

01:19:57.120 And it's amazing to me.

01:19:58.740 The two biggest one, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.

01:20:02.900 The truth plays no role in their life.

01:20:06.040 They're living in a in a complete made up world where the truth only matters when it's

01:20:12.580 convenient.

01:20:12.980 It's Tuesday, April 17th.

01:20:21.500 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:20:23.360 I read a great article on Medium the other day that I want to share parts of it with you

01:20:29.340 because it is.

01:20:30.080 It is the problem and the solution.

01:20:34.980 You know, we always just.

01:20:38.880 We live in a world that is run by a pendulum, I think, you know, the.

01:20:44.760 The deists during the early enlightenment believed that there was a God, but he was a watchmaker

01:20:53.060 and he assembled the watch and then he walked away.

01:20:56.320 He set the time, started it going, and then he walks away from it.

01:20:58.980 It's just running like, you know, clockwork.

01:21:01.460 And that's that's the role that God plays.

01:21:05.980 Well, let's use that analogy here for a second, because in some ways it does work that way.

01:21:12.320 The system does work that way.

01:21:14.440 It's a it's a clock and it just it doesn't change no matter how much you want it to change.

01:21:19.880 You know, I need another hour.

01:21:21.300 It doesn't matter.

01:21:21.900 It just continues to tick and it's 60 minutes is never rubber.

01:21:26.860 It is always 60 minutes.

01:21:29.540 And we as a society always are on a pendulum.

01:21:32.980 And when we get too far on the outside, it's it's crazy unstable and it's never good.

01:21:41.800 It's when that pendulum is just right towards the six o'clock, if you will, right at the bottom.

01:21:47.580 That it's the strongest and the best, right?

01:21:53.140 Because there's these extremes.

01:21:56.560 Where where where we are being pushed to those edges.

01:22:00.860 And right now, the extreme is being pushed so far to the left.

01:22:08.260 And it's so far to the to the collective.

01:22:12.660 That the individual doesn't matter anymore.

01:22:16.320 It's all about the group, my group.

01:22:19.300 And yet that group is getting smaller and smaller and smaller until you're going to eventually range, you know, right.

01:22:24.020 You're going to land on the individual again.

01:22:25.980 My group, my group, my group is my group is Asian-Americans.

01:22:31.200 Well, not all Asian-Americans, Asian-Americans whose family has come here in the last two generations, but not just any last two generation, Asian-American, Asian-American generation that migrated from China.

01:22:46.760 And they came here because they were all missing one left foot.

01:22:52.040 And eventually you get to just you and your case.

01:22:56.660 Because if you noticed, they're all starting to eat each other now.

01:23:01.080 I mean, when RuPaul is called out by transgendered people.

01:23:06.680 As being transphobic, you've got an issue.

01:23:09.940 OK, it's transport.

01:23:11.680 It's I mean, it's it's RuPaul for the love of Pete.

01:23:14.340 So let me let me just share this medium article.

01:23:19.300 The biggest oversight of today's pro-diversity extremists is that they forget that literally diversity cannot be sustained without coexistence.

01:23:30.120 Remember those bumper stickers that used to piss people off?

01:23:33.200 Coexistence like we're going to live together.

01:23:35.480 Coexistence.

01:23:36.080 All of these one world religion. 0.71

01:23:39.660 Yeah.

01:23:39.820 Coexistence is actually pretty important.

01:23:41.660 You know, I don't mean I have to agree with you, but I pretty much have to live next door to you.

01:23:47.480 It's like a pretty low hurdle to clear as well.

01:23:49.940 It really does.

01:23:50.480 You're just kind of both existing at the same time.

01:23:52.900 Yeah.

01:23:53.440 Yeah.

01:23:53.840 We can't all have, you know, white, black, Asian, male, female, intersex, trans, gay, straight, cis, tall, short, fat, skinny, liberal, conservative, all living together exactly the same way.

01:24:08.960 Because they're not they're different people.

01:24:11.060 And if they don't tolerate one another, what happens?

01:24:15.400 They kill each other.

01:24:17.360 This is the way you go to war. 0.86

01:24:19.460 The article says, let me give you two types of people in this world.

01:24:25.240 One, those who can tolerate people who don't think, look, live, or feel like them within the confines of the law.

01:24:34.000 I'm that person.

01:24:36.200 Or two, those who cannot tolerate who don't think, look, live, or feel like them within the confines of the law. 0.96

01:24:44.640 But those are the only kind of two people.

01:24:46.380 And if you're a number two person in any shape or form, then you are not pro-diversity.

01:24:53.440 You're pro-self.

01:24:55.380 You're pro-tribe.

01:24:57.680 And it doesn't matter if you're black or white, gay or straight.

01:25:00.380 It doesn't matter.

01:25:02.640 You're not really diverse.

01:25:04.420 The author says, let me put it this way.

01:25:07.500 If black people resent and mock white people for their white privilege and gay people resent and mock straight people for their privilege, 0.68

01:25:16.460 and women resent and mock men for their privilege, and trans people resent and mock cis people for their privilege,

01:25:23.800 and poor people resent and mock rich people for their privilege,

01:25:27.040 submissive men resent and mock dominant men for their privilege,

01:25:30.700 Unattractive people resent and mock attractive people for their privilege.

01:25:36.240 Bald people resent and mock fully maimed people for their privilege. 1.00

01:25:40.760 Disabled people resent and mock able-bodied people for their privilege. 1.00

01:25:44.400 Liberals resent and mock conservatives for their privilege.

01:25:46.960 Vegetarians resent and mock meat eaters for their privilege.

01:25:49.860 Vegans resent and mock vegetarians for their privilege.

01:25:53.000 Christians resent and mock Jews for their privileges. 0.99

01:25:56.160 Muslims resent and mock Christians for their privilege. 1.00

01:25:59.640 atheists resent and mock theists for their privilege uh and pentecostal christians resent

01:26:05.340 and mock catholic christians for their privilege on and on and on and on this is a recipe for

01:26:12.080 conflict not peace not unity this is what causes wars

01:26:20.320 now what happens is people will say well wait a minute here

01:26:30.520 you want me to live side by side with a racist

01:26:35.820 no if they are actually promoting the idea of racial supremacy and the violent subjugation of

01:26:48.640 people well no you do resist those people the the sexists that believe they are superior and

01:26:57.660 entitled to have power over another sex no matter which of the 94 or 114 genders it may be uh no 0.93

01:27:06.160 no i resist those who make decisions based solely on gender homophobes people that have believe that

01:27:13.800 uh the the the lifestyle of gay people has to be exactly what you decide no i i don't i don't know

01:27:24.200 i don't think we we do that other than that yeah i think we all have to get along that's interesting

01:27:33.580 it's similar to what amy chua was saying yesterday um on the show in that we've come to a point where

01:27:39.820 the people who claim to be diverse are so strident in their opposition to any other viewpoint

01:27:47.540 diversity is a joke i mean it's really even when you were reading that when you were talking about 0.96

01:27:53.400 diversity you kind of cringe at the word not because you don't you cringe at the idea of actual

01:27:58.560 diversity diversity is great we i mean in in real terms as the word actually means

01:28:04.740 from a dictionary it's great but what it is in political terms today is just a way to beat up

01:28:12.280 on people who are too conservative here's here's the thing diversity makes you stronger okay real

01:28:19.260 diversity makes you stronger you know that there are some animals that are both and neither x nor y

01:28:26.820 chromosome male or female yeah okay and they can procreate they can become a female or a male doesn't 0.88

01:28:33.880 matter they can play both it's creepy right it's creepy however they um they do that for survival

01:28:43.240 they actually physically change for survival all right but here's the problem they clone themselves

01:28:52.860 because they have nobody to mate with so they clone themselves and what happens all of a sudden

01:29:00.620 there's this population explosion it's happening with the crawfish in europe yeah it's happening now

01:29:06.980 this explosion where everybody's like there's gonna be a world covered in crawfish no you're not you know

01:29:13.600 why because it's inherently weak it will come against a predator or it will come against a disease or

01:29:22.160 something and they will all die because one thing will kill all of them because there's

01:29:30.560 no diversity there's no genetic diversity whatever that one has they all have it whatever the one 0.99

01:29:37.960 weakness is they all have it we need diversity we need genetic diversity and we need mental diversity

01:29:48.800 i don't know anybody who's against that except when you start talking politics and then everybody

01:29:56.180 seems to be against it guys we need each other we have to live with each other we have to stop trying

01:30:04.480 to criminalize somebody else's point of view there's a there is a um a free speech survey that was just put

01:30:12.380 put out on to the uh university presidents 471 college presidents how do you value free speech 82 percent of

01:30:25.240 university presidents believe it is important to promote an inclusive society that is welcome to

01:30:30.620 diverse groups although 85 percent said shouting down speakers or trying to prevent them from talking

01:30:37.780 is never acceptable and 74 percent said that protecting citizens free speech rights is extremely

01:30:43.960 important 96 percent answered that they believe it's more important to allow students to be exposed to

01:30:50.340 all types of speeches even if they may find it offensive or biased than to protect students by

01:30:56.580 prohibiting speech they may find offensive or biased 96 percent of all university presidents say that it is

01:31:06.080 more important for them to be exposed to speech they may find offensive or biased why first of all because

01:31:14.120 diversity makes you stronger but if you happen to be a university president i've seen what's going on in campuses

01:31:22.360 it doesn't match the 96 percent of you that are saying that you need to protect that so i just want to say

01:31:29.680 how are things going and and blink twice if you're in danger

01:33:22.360 so they're already in real time rewriting history and it's the history that our kids are studying

01:33:30.400 if you're not reading the history books with your kids and going over their tests with them

01:33:34.160 and talking to them every night um you you shouldn't be surprised at the product that you

01:33:40.160 get at the end of their schooling nyu professor james frazier is rewriting history uh and he's he's

01:33:47.160 making it a progressive narrative he penned by the people a history of the united states it's a

01:33:52.720 textbook for advanced placement american history high school class um and it is it's riddled with

01:33:58.900 thinly veiled criticism of president trump uh blatant insults aimed at those who voted for him

01:34:04.260 and anti-police rhetoric now i've read this and some of this is really bad some of it is

01:34:09.980 i guess you have to take it as a whole because some of it is like i don't know you could read it

01:34:17.460 that way i guess but if you take it to if you look at it as a whole it's it tips the scales i mean here's

01:34:25.220 one of the really bad ones um most thought this talking about the last election most thought that

01:34:30.800 trump was too extreme a candidate to win the nomination but his extremism his anti-establishment

01:34:36.900 rhetoric and some said his not very hidden racism connected with a significant number of primary

01:34:43.200 voters okay well who are the some some said who are the some how many people said that

01:34:50.480 his not so hidden racist comments is his attitudes i mean i think that leads needs a little more

01:34:59.020 explanation or needs to be left out some is a nice way to say it's what i think yes um but i don't

01:35:06.680 want to take responsibility for it so i'll just reference random others that may have said

01:35:11.480 something similar now he detests stereotyping but listen to this trump supporters saw the vote as a

01:35:16.720 victory for the people who like themselves had been forgotten in fast-changing america okay i don't have

01:35:22.880 a problem with that you mostly older often rural or suburban and overwhelmingly white clinton supporters

01:35:32.380 feared that the election had been determined by people who were afraid of rapidly developing

01:35:38.140 ethnic diversity of the country discomfort with their candidates gender and nostalgia for an earlier

01:35:44.820 time in the nation's history they also worried about the mental instability of the president-elect

01:35:50.160 and the anger that he and his supporters brought to the nation holy cow why don't you just take

01:35:55.140 hillary clinton's india speech yeah pretty much quoting i mean it is it is there's there's more uh in

01:36:04.340 this and i just want to share it uh with you and and and and go over it because you have to go over

01:36:11.240 this with your kids you have to go over this with your kids and and to find a way to talk to your kids

01:36:18.520 about this in a balanced way where they won't take the side of the teacher automatically we'll talk

01:36:26.840 about that when we come back

01:36:28.040 glenn beck mercury

01:36:35.880 you're listening to the glenn beck program so reading this textbook

01:36:47.760 uh that is now in classrooms called by the people a history of the united states it's a textbook for

01:36:53.940 advanced placement american history high school classes and by the way do you know that now to

01:37:00.180 get a history major world history major you don't have to take a single course in american history

01:37:09.060 not one not one how how do you understand world history if you don't understand the united states

01:37:17.560 how do you understand if if we don't have to take any world his any american history to

01:37:25.560 to qualify as a as a history teacher a world history teacher how how is that possible did the united

01:37:34.020 states not play a role in anything that's happened the last 220 years it would not play any role i mean

01:37:40.040 how is that possible it's really the only important role to understand correct right it's the by far the

01:37:46.600 most dynamic change correct i mean we've tried things that no one had tried before we are now no longer

01:37:53.200 teaching the founders in fact some school districts are now only teaching american history

01:37:58.160 post 1900 what a surprise because that's when oh the progressive era started isn't that interesting

01:38:06.700 history history is written by those in power and the good news is you have the ability to

01:38:18.020 to to to teach history it's being made every day to teach history to your kids and it's imperative

01:38:26.760 that you do in this advanced uh placement textbook for high school by the people is the name of the

01:38:33.960 book um i gave you a couple of things one is uh most thought that trump was too extreme of a candidate to

01:38:40.140 win the nomination but his extremism his anti-establishment rhetoric and some said his not very hidden

01:38:47.220 racism connected with a significant number of primary voters so i would agree with i'd say 90 percent of

01:38:56.060 this most thought that trump was extreme candidate who couldn't win the nomination i contend even

01:39:01.140 donald trump's people didn't think he could win the nomination but he went in as an extreme candidate

01:39:05.540 to shake up the system his his uh anti-establishment rhetoric yeah that connected with a lot of people

01:39:13.260 now his extremism and his not very hidden racism no no uh did some people perceive some of the things

01:39:24.080 he said as racist yeah yeah they did who are those people i don't know do they exist yeah in what

01:39:31.580 number i don't know i mean that that shouldn't be in that textbook that's not you could say some

01:39:38.460 people felt that he had hidden racist tendencies as long as you say others vehemently denied that

01:39:45.660 he says he goes on clinton supporters feared the election uh had been determined by people who were

01:39:54.640 afraid of a rapidly developing ethnic diversity of the country can we stop with this i don't know a soul 0.89

01:40:02.640 that is afraid of the country changing because there are all these black people here 1.00

01:40:09.680 i see brown people no nobody i don't know of anybody that is feeling that way i don't know

01:40:17.460 anybody that is like whites are going to be in the minority we got to start killing me some of those 1.00

01:40:22.620 other colored people you know people in the media you know the richard spencers of the world of course

01:40:27.580 like that they do exist they're in small numbers here's what people are feeling

01:40:31.700 the american culture the culture that we've had from the beginning of neighborliness decency honor

01:40:41.700 integrity we've failed all of those things over and over again but for the most part you could

01:40:48.800 predict america you could predict what your neighbor would do and we all generally agreed on

01:40:56.040 the bill of rights even though we wouldn't live up to them all the time we were always progressing

01:41:01.140 and getting better there's no finish line and so we're always progressing and getting better but

01:41:05.800 generally we all agreed on those things well here's what i'm afraid of and it has nothing to do with the

01:41:12.340 color of skin it does have something to do with people coming in from other countries let's say sweden

01:41:19.340 sweden i don't want a bunch of swedes in here that want to make america like sweden no then live in 1.00

01:41:27.640 sweden i want you to come here if you're like you know we had some really good things you know but

01:41:34.160 it may not work here because it's diverse there's no diversity in sweden or what a surprise as soon

01:41:41.100 as we started introducing some some sort of diversity the whole thing started to shimmy apart 1.00

01:41:46.280 huh wonder if that had anything to do with it i don't want people here who want to recreate

01:41:51.840 their country i don't want people here who just want to be an american because you can become rich

01:41:58.160 by the world's standards i want people here who understand the opportunity that our constitution

01:42:05.640 provides and that's what we're losing but we're losing it with white people and black people and 1.00

01:42:11.280 young people and old people we're losing it everywhere there's nobody generating those kind of people and 1.00

01:42:17.540 that's what i think people fear and they saw donald trump as a guy who's like i love the country you

01:42:23.020 say whatever you want but he loves the country i'm sorry i don't think that was a universal opinion

01:42:31.740 under barack obama now you may not agree with donald trump's version of the country but he loved it

01:42:41.860 and people wanted they want a president who's like i'm on i'm on our side i'm on our side that played

01:42:50.120 to a lot of people they felt that he loved the country that's important it does it has less to do

01:42:59.120 with race i think he goes on to say uh uh it was uh afraid of rapidly developing ethnic diversity of

01:43:08.380 the country or discomfort with their candidates gender look it's not 1970 anymore and hillary

01:43:16.240 clinton is not mary tyler moore she's more like an angry mod for the love of people can you love 1.00

01:43:23.180 a p can you hippies stop living in the 1960s and 70s you did you're the one that made the mod reference

01:43:31.080 i don't know because they'll understand it that's true though this idea that i mean is there again

01:43:39.780 is there someone out there in the sound of my voice that didn't vote for hillary clinton because she

01:43:44.960 was a woman maybe maybe i've never met anyone who's like that but it's possible okay try try this

01:43:51.860 on for size that's like me saying you know that melania hasn't been on uh on on magazine fashion 1.00

01:43:58.120 magazine covers any no she's been on one but i don't remember which one it was it wasn't a fashion

01:44:04.380 magazine but she was she was on vanity fair mexico yeah you're right you're right you're right you're

01:44:10.260 right it doesn't count because it's not american vanity fair mexico she has not been on the cover of

01:44:16.940 any women's magazine and think about the extensive propaganda we receive of the arms you must believe 1.00

01:44:26.380 michelle obama is beautiful you must she's on every fashion magazine she's on magazine after magazine

01:44:31.600 if you question her abs you were a monster a monster and then they put a super model in the white house 0.99

01:44:40.560 and she's on zero magazine covers i think that's because she's a woman stew 1.00

01:44:45.940 that's a dumb point exactly right making here it is the same point it is so if i said that with a

01:44:54.580 straight face to the left you're only doing that because she's a woman you would roll your eyes 0.94

01:45:00.220 rightfully so and say that's ridiculous and you'd bring up the point i liked when michelle obama was

01:45:06.460 on fashion magazines like we'd say well we liked carly fiorina but you would never give us any points

01:45:11.740 for that no you would never say remember who used to lead the polls you know a couple it was a couple

01:45:16.760 elections ago now but condoleezer rice used to be the person they would talk about leading the polls

01:45:20.800 have no problem no problem with women none stop it stop it then he says and uh there is a there was a

01:45:34.700 nostalgia for an earlier time in the nation's history yeah you know what that's true of everybody

01:45:40.340 that's true of everybody because we all look back the older you get the you look back and you're like

01:45:45.420 you know it was simpler those days no it wasn't it was simpler those days yeah you had to pump your

01:45:52.300 own water you had to go outside and crap in a box you had to wipe yourself with leaf it was never better

01:46:00.140 back then it was never better back then we have better things now we have easier times now we have

01:46:09.340 connection around the planet like we've like we've never ever had yes in your old timey memories you

01:46:17.820 can be like oh i remember going down to the fruit cellar in grandma's house and how i wonder grandma

01:46:23.840 worked her ass off to pick all of that food and then she spent all summer canning it and every time

01:46:30.060 she would look at you and say hey you know i gotta go down and get some beans you'd be like why can't

01:46:34.180 somebody else do it because you were freaked out about grandma's basement because it was dark and

01:46:39.100 spooky not like most basements today so please stop with the it was better in the old days it wasn't

01:46:46.200 it wasn't and and stop with this well you know what we need to do let me tell you i gotta i've got to

01:46:54.880 do you know i watched i watched who was that what's that chick's name who bill mark play in fact play

01:47:04.040 bill maher bill maher made this point on uh on uh watching old movies and the hashtag um me too

01:47:14.160 listen to this a recent article by molly ringwald got a lot of attention because she revisited the

01:47:19.860 breakfast club and her other 80s movies and found them troubling in the age of me too she said she was

01:47:26.260 taken aback by the scope of the ugliness oh please they were teen comedies not snuff films you can't

01:47:32.740 blame someone for not being woke 30 years before woke was a thing 20 years ago the jokes on friends

01:47:39.260 were just funny now some millennials some i applaud the sane ones 0.92

01:47:45.800 but some find the jokes sexist transphobic and fat shaming okay but if you spend your time combing

01:47:54.720 through old tv shows to identify stuff that by today's standards looks bad you're not woke you're

01:48:00.260 just a douche bag we're never finished evolving i hate to break it to you but no matter how woke

01:48:05.680 you think you are you are tolerating things right now that will make you cringe in 25 years

01:48:12.460 amen now let me speak to all the douche bags as bill maher has described and labeled those people who

01:48:20.320 want to look back in time and be outraged by something that was said or done 20 years ago

01:48:27.160 because i'm assuming that that douche bagginess continues beyond 20 years to perhaps 250 years

01:48:36.080 to our founders who definitely never you could go up to the ministry say you're not woke man

01:48:44.540 and they wouldn't know what the hell you were talking about joe biden could say hey dude man 0.51

01:48:52.520 keep on trucking just without all the african americans okay he wouldn't understand that 0.99

01:49:01.280 because he was in a different time so if we can lecture molly ringwald about her evolving standards 0.70

01:49:11.360 maybe we can do the same with those who want to say you know those founding fathers they were just evil

01:49:20.800 no they were a product of their day just like molly ringwald now the difference is she's a woman 1.00

01:49:29.680 so i'm gonna come down oh no wait i'm applying the same standard to a woman that i am an old dead guy 0.98

01:49:38.100 yeah but he was white and a man what happened there i don't know i'm so nostalgic for the for the good old

01:49:48.100 days when right was right and wrong was wrong and let's just go lynch him what the hell what the hell 0.80

01:49:54.820 is wrong with us this is the only show that will tie molly ringwald to the founders today and i am

01:50:00.260 anywhere else and i am thrilled to do it because it is the loss of american culture not white not black 0.99

01:50:09.780 not male female cisgen none of that it's none of that it is the loss that we all feel something's not

01:50:20.400 right something's not right i feel like we're we're our country is slipping through our fingers

01:50:29.120 because what i'm watching on tv would not have been acceptable and what's really i would love for this

01:50:37.960 guy to to write because he he wrote uh those who had long thought of a nation as a white and christian

01:50:43.760 country found it difficult to adjust to president barack obama really really because i don't think

01:50:49.020 that's what it was i think it was his policies i think it was his communist ties i think it was his

01:50:55.520 constant insistence on saying that america was bad and that you couldn't make it without government

01:51:03.960 help i think that's what it was but what's weird is the tea party didn't march on inaugural weekend

01:51:09.840 we didn't do that that was the democrats that seemed to have a problem with something beyond his policies

01:51:16.460 and they can't let it go and i think the textbook for american history should end this chapter on

01:51:24.100 what's strange is half the country felt the way under barack obama that the other half would soon feel

01:51:33.100 after the election of donald trump yet with so much in common
