00:00:17.700 Hello America and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:00:21.820 My, I'm, I'm, I'm not at a loss for words.
00:00:29.740 For what happened this weekend.
00:00:32.060 And we begin with a couple of celebrities.
00:00:35.120 And how the media reported on those celebrities.
00:00:38.440 We begin with Madonna and Ashley Judd.
00:00:41.380 Right now.
00:00:42.900 I will make a stand.
00:00:45.520 I will raise my voice.
00:00:47.780 I will hold your hand.
00:00:50.200 Cause we are one.
00:00:52.060 I will beat my drum.
00:00:54.260 I have made my choice.
00:00:55.740 We will overcome.
00:00:57.960 Cause we are one.
00:01:00.840 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:04.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:10.460 Hello America.
00:01:11.860 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:12.920 We're so glad that you're here.
00:01:14.880 I'm just reading the front page of the Blaze.
00:01:17.680 And I think this story is wrong.
00:01:19.740 Madonna's mouth gets the attention of the Secret Service.
00:01:22.080 Can somebody check with the Blaze?
00:01:24.000 Because I've, I've been reading this weekend, the, the liberal side, the Huffington Post side of these rallies.
00:01:33.440 And quite honestly, I think my head's going to pop.
00:01:36.100 I cannot believe the way these rallies have been treated by the press.
00:01:42.520 You want to know, press, why you have no trust in the center of the country.
00:01:49.320 This is it.
00:01:51.100 This is it.
00:01:54.080 This is AstroTurf at its best.
00:01:57.900 Remember when you tried to make the moms and the kids that just felt like they just wanted their voice to be heard, felt like they were a tool of the GOP?
00:02:06.820 Which, I will have you know, after 2012 or leading up to 2012, it had become a tool of the GOP.
00:02:15.040 And that's why the Tea Party fell apart.
00:02:17.800 Because it was no longer, it was AstroTurf.
00:02:22.800 It had been hijacked.
00:02:26.720 But for the first three or four years, that was absolutely moms and dads sitting next to each other.
00:02:34.240 Teaching their kids, paying their own way.
00:02:39.520 So you have an AstroTurf, an impressive AstroTurf, anti-Trump rally.
00:02:49.120 But you don't mention that it's AstroTurf.
00:02:51.200 And the things that you okayed through your reporting, the things that you dismissed when you were on week-long hunts for someone with a gun,
00:03:09.140 someone with a sign that said National Socialism, that Obamacare is National Socialism,
00:03:15.200 and how you would twist that and make that into, see, you're calling him Hitler.
00:03:22.240 How you would search.
00:03:24.800 How you would bypass every cute child in the crowd.
00:03:29.620 I saw a headline today of all of the cute children that were out holding signs.
00:03:36.460 You made sure you, every single story, had a picture of the guy who dressed up as Ben Franklin.
00:03:46.080 You would miss all the cute children.
00:03:48.460 You would miss all the real people.
00:03:50.420 And you would go to the one guy in the crowd that was dressed as Ben Franklin.
00:03:54.160 But I noticed you didn't concentrate on the women who were dressed as vaginas.
00:04:02.180 You want to know why the American people don't trust you?
00:04:06.440 There it is.
00:04:07.960 You have asked me into your own boardrooms.
00:04:13.560 What is it we're doing?
00:04:15.400 There it is.
00:04:16.360 Right there.
00:04:17.360 There it is.
00:04:20.480 You have two ways to go.
00:04:22.880 You can either heal and learn from the mistakes of the past
00:04:28.320 and start to be neutral observers.
00:04:34.480 Or you can continue with your agenda and pretend you're neutral observers.
00:04:39.300 But you have to overcorrect.
00:04:42.220 Do you understand that?
00:04:44.500 You have to overcorrect to gain any trust.
00:04:48.300 And I don't mean overcorrect by making them look bad.
00:04:55.160 I mean overcorrect by saying to us out loud on the front page,
00:05:01.300 we get it.
00:05:03.460 We made huge mistakes.
00:05:05.740 And we have changes in our policies.
00:05:08.460 We've done it here.
00:05:10.840 We've done it here.
00:05:11.900 You called me a conspiracy theorist for talking about Russia and how Russia is involved.
00:05:24.400 That they are not a friend of the United States.
00:05:27.880 When you were playing footsies with Russia, you called me a conspiracy theorist.
00:05:33.060 When I said that the unions were involved with AstroTurf against the Tea Party,
00:05:42.340 you called me a conspiracy theorist.
00:05:48.520 You're going to call us a conspiracy theorist again.
00:05:50.680 But you're going to have to call yourself.
00:05:52.620 Congratulations to the New York Times.
00:05:54.940 And everyone should go and click on this story for the New York Times.
00:05:58.580 I'll give you the headline here in a second.
00:05:59.980 Everyone should be aware of what the New York Times ran this weekend.
00:06:05.140 They ran a story.
00:06:07.280 They looked at the 50 groups, the main groups that were involved in this women's march.
00:06:15.260 And they found the ties to George Soros.
00:06:20.020 All of them are tied to George Soros.
00:06:22.940 And they exposed that this is not a spontaneous rally.
00:06:29.980 Now, that was one story out of many, but at least it was one.
00:06:40.980 Everything that we said, every word that was scrutinized,
00:06:46.260 how we had to watch every single word.
00:06:51.320 And if we got one word misplaced, it would be in the headlines,
00:06:56.940 and it would be nonstop coverage for days.
00:07:06.480 How we would say, you took that out of context.
00:07:10.060 You have to play the whole thing.
00:07:13.540 You took it out of context.
00:07:15.000 And I don't mean the whole thing.
00:07:16.180 I mean three lines before it.
00:07:18.800 Or just to say, that was a comedy bit.
00:07:23.600 You would never give us the benefit of the doubt.
00:07:26.620 Yet Madonna comes out on Saturday.
00:07:30.540 And let's start with what she had to say.
00:07:32.980 Yes, I'm angry.
00:07:37.660 Yes, I am outraged.
00:07:41.960 Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.
00:07:52.580 Now, that's where they would have left it.
00:07:54.380 But she goes on to say, but it, go ahead, play the rest.
00:07:56.980 But I know that this won't change anything.
00:08:02.780 Okay, stop.
00:08:04.400 Okay.
00:08:05.260 All right, good.
00:08:07.440 So what happens?
00:08:09.280 What happens?
00:08:10.400 The Huffington Post writes a story today that Madonna says she was taking out of context
00:08:15.760 because her whole thing was about love, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:08:21.220 Forgiven.
00:08:24.320 Excuse me?
00:08:26.620 I am willing to say, yes, she was taken out of context.
00:08:30.560 Does she actually, has she actually been plotting for the Secret Service?
00:08:36.100 Should they investigate her?
00:08:37.560 No, they shouldn't.
00:08:39.580 They said they were going to.
00:08:40.960 What?
00:08:41.660 They said they were going to.
00:08:42.460 Well, they were going to open an investigation, but it wasn't, that was it.
00:08:45.740 Did they say that?
00:08:46.580 Because, I mean, if you read the Blaze story, it pretty clearly says that that evidence came from a conspiracy site.
00:08:53.340 Yes.
00:08:53.720 The source for the supposed investigation came from a conspiracy site.
00:08:58.940 And, you know, they're essentially reporting on the page six reporting it.
00:09:03.560 Because that's what I, because that's what I had read, that it was a conspiracy website that started this nonsense.
00:09:10.880 There's no reason the Secret Service should investigate Madonna on this.
00:09:14.440 No.
00:09:14.960 And there is no reason, there is no reason that anyone should think that Madonna was actually saying, we should be violent, or that that would cause someone to be violent.
00:09:27.780 But that wasn't what you said about us, and we never said anything like that.
00:09:34.200 Right.
00:09:34.440 Even when, even when all Sarah Palin said was that we should target these districts.
00:09:39.840 Correct.
00:09:40.300 She meant for electing someone else.
00:09:43.060 Right.
00:09:43.480 For defeating the incumbent.
00:09:45.680 How dare you?
00:09:47.940 The press, how dare you?
00:09:52.840 Lecture us about anything.
00:09:55.620 Honestly, how dare you act rational about Madonna?
00:09:59.020 How dare you take it and apply logic to what she said?
00:10:05.020 How dare you?
00:10:06.220 Thank you.
00:10:07.240 Thank you.
00:10:08.520 You did exactly the right thing, but you never did it to us.
00:10:14.320 Never gave us the benefit of the doubt.
00:10:17.760 And I will tell you that you're going to sit around and go, that was completely logical.
00:10:22.860 There's nothing wrong with that story.
00:10:24.600 We reported it as it was.
00:10:26.440 Yes, you did.
00:10:27.880 But that's why I say you have to overcorrect.
00:10:31.820 You have to at least say, maybe in the past, we should have given the Tea Party credit.
00:10:39.640 When they didn't say things like this, we still went after Sarah Palin for the word targeting.
00:10:49.560 As if it was going to incite violence.
00:10:52.320 If we would have said anything like this, the whole weekend would have been nonstop coverage on how we were violent extremists who were, you never know who's listening to you.
00:11:04.460 You never know who's out there listening.
00:11:06.940 You don't know.
00:11:08.000 Remember those lectures?
00:11:09.360 Oh, yeah.
00:11:09.660 We have to vent this anger, honestly.
00:11:17.140 We have to be able to say, I'm really angry about this.
00:11:20.520 I'm really angry about this.
00:11:22.300 But I don't want to yell and scream at the press.
00:11:28.100 I want to beg the press, please, for the love of our country, for the love of stability, please, please listen to us.
00:11:46.100 Please listen to us.
00:11:49.800 Soon, the door is going to close, I fear.
00:11:53.860 And anyone interested in actually having a real conversation and the media having a chance of bringing this back from the brink, it's going to be over.
00:12:04.280 It's going to be over.
00:12:09.240 And let me tell you something.
00:12:12.260 These guys will win.
00:12:13.580 These guys will win.
00:12:16.100 This, as Van Jones tweeted, it took us eight years to get a crowd half this size under George W. Bush.
00:12:24.260 This is day number one.
00:12:26.300 Why?
00:12:27.420 Because, A, the left knows, I believe Obama said this when he was leaving, that the left should do the Tea Party, should learn from the Tea Party.
00:12:36.320 They did.
00:12:37.400 They did.
00:12:38.600 What are they good at?
00:12:40.280 What are we bad at?
00:12:41.580 What are they good at?
00:12:42.640 We're bad at protests.
00:12:44.040 They're great at protests.
00:12:46.100 They are going to master what the Tea Party did.
00:12:50.400 Remember how unwieldy our first rallies were?
00:12:55.560 Do you remember how, after modeling, they got better and better and better?
00:13:01.660 They've used us as the model.
00:13:05.180 This one was unwieldy.
00:13:06.740 But they're going to learn, and they have the organizing tools and all of the money in the world.
00:13:14.720 I'm afraid tomorrow I have to go back to my chalkboard.
00:13:20.920 We've been working on it this weekend.
00:13:22.620 We're going to give you some of the connections.
00:13:23.960 We're going to talk to the woman who wrote that article for the New York Times about the connections to George Soros and to radical Islam.
00:13:30.900 And have a talk with her.
00:13:35.080 Tomorrow I'm bringing the chalkboard in, because the connections are there.
00:13:40.760 And if you want to call me a conspiracy theorist again, you can.
00:13:44.140 I'm not going to accuse anybody of anything.
00:13:49.320 I'm just going to point out the facts.
00:13:51.460 Because somebody has to, and perhaps, perhaps, someone in the media will listen.
00:14:03.060 I don't know if they will.
00:14:05.980 But there's no such thing, and I'm sorry.
00:14:08.600 Donald Trump, you made a mistake by mocking them.
00:14:13.460 Please don't mock them.
00:14:15.820 You were on their side while we were going through this.
00:14:19.640 You were helped funding the anti-Tea Party stuff with Harry Reid.
00:14:23.920 So you don't know how we felt.
00:14:26.480 But we felt horrible when they mocked us and they didn't listen to us.
00:14:32.800 Please don't do that.
00:14:34.240 It will only ratchet it up more.
00:14:37.860 And I know that there are people, Steve Bannon calls himself a Leninist.
00:14:44.680 Not that he's a national socialist.
00:14:47.460 He is a nationalist.
00:14:49.640 But what he believes in is that Lenin was right.
00:14:53.600 Burn the entire thing down.
00:14:56.220 They want a war.
00:14:58.560 I'm not saying Trump does.
00:15:00.400 But Bannon definitely does.
00:15:01.900 He's on record saying it.
00:15:03.360 He wants an internal war between the press and the people.
00:15:08.480 I don't.
00:15:10.280 I don't.
00:15:11.240 I want reason to rule again.
00:15:13.780 Unfortunately, reason has become treason.
00:15:22.800 That has to change.
00:15:24.940 That rhymed.
00:15:26.840 Thank you.
00:15:28.040 Thank you.
00:15:28.780 Thank you.
00:15:29.120 I appreciate it.
00:15:29.740 That was a good.
00:15:30.580 Thank you.
00:15:31.160 It rhymes so people will remember it more easily.
00:15:33.520 And now this.

00:18:25.780 Welcome to it.
00:18:26.320 Glad you're here.
00:18:27.300 We thought we'd start this season.
00:18:28.740 Usually we start on January 3rd.
00:18:30.660 But we thought we'd start the new season this year with a new season with the president.
00:18:35.700 Fresh start for everything.
00:18:37.720 And I even, I went the extra mile for a stew and got him a fireplace and got it early and
00:18:43.480 built a roaring fire and you're still cold.
00:18:45.800 I mean, I'll switch places with you.
00:18:47.140 I'm a little bit closer.
00:18:47.700 It's not throwing off as much heat as you might think.
00:18:50.380 Really?
00:18:50.740 Yeah.
00:18:51.360 It's, I mean, it looks like.
00:18:53.000 Well, you put a fan in it or something to bring out some of the heat.
00:18:54.520 Yeah, we'll have to do that.
00:18:55.900 Try to get some of the heat thrown.
00:18:56.960 Not effective.
00:18:57.860 Not effective.
00:18:58.280 It was good to see that the left wanted a fresh start, too.
00:19:01.360 And that's, they were, they were great over the weekend in fresh starts, weren't they?
00:19:06.920 They were wonderful.
00:19:09.040 They were wonderful.
00:19:09.700 It's such a weird strategy.
00:19:11.220 It's so weird that the, that the, that the, the tea party just didn't catch on except for
00:19:18.240 any place except the old iron, behind the iron curtain and Italy.
00:19:22.640 Um, but all of a sudden on inauguration weekend, the entire world spontaneously got together.
00:19:33.780 Amazing.
00:19:34.440 Mm-hmm.
00:19:34.940 It was amazing.
00:19:35.900 Such a weird approach.
00:19:36.800 I mean, they really have, uh, it just shows that this is just naked partisanship.
00:19:41.700 Yes.
00:19:42.320 Because, I mean, if you look at Donald Trump objectively, the man has offered a $680 billion
00:19:48.440 paid maternity leave program funded by the federal government for women.
00:19:53.480 There has never been a more opportunity for the left to get things out of a Republican
00:19:57.780 president's for sure.
00:19:58.820 Than this guy.
00:19:59.520 I mean, he's so heavily influenced by his daughter who is with the Women's March people
00:20:04.500 on all of these issues, and yet they still act like it's the apocalypse.
00:20:09.700 I mean, you'd think...
00:20:11.240 Play Ashley Judd.
00:20:11.820 Play Ashley Judd.
00:20:12.460 Yeah.
00:20:12.700 Do we have time?
00:20:13.260 By the way, we have the woman who wrote the...
00:20:15.520 Don't.
00:20:16.340 We don't have time.
00:20:17.240 We have the woman coming up next, uh, Azra, uh, Nomani.
00:20:21.960 She is the woman who wrote the story for the New York Times about the connections to
00:20:25.940 George Soros and the radical left.
00:20:27.500 It was 15 years ago today that, uh, uh, Danny Pearl was kidnapped and executed.
00:20:37.480 He left to go to the Middle East from her house.
00:20:43.200 Um, we're going to talk to her.
00:20:44.780 We might talk a little bit about Daniel Pearl, um, as well, but she wrote a very brave article
00:20:50.840 on who's actually behind this big march.
00:20:55.760 And if the press wants to have any credibility, they have to report this and, and start being
00:21:08.900 neutral.
00:21:09.600 And if the press on the right wants to have any credibility, we also have to report the
00:21:16.420 things that are not necessarily good for our side.
00:21:19.860 There has to be someone with credibility.
00:21:21.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:21:24.740 Mercury.
00:21:25.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:21:29.360 Here is Ashley Judd from this weekend.
00:21:33.600 As confederate flags being tattooed across my city, maybe the South actually is going
00:21:42.580 to rise again.
00:21:44.400 Maybe for some, it never really fell.
00:21:48.160 Blacks are still in shackles and graves just for being black.
00:21:54.640 Slavery has been reinterpreted as the prison system in front of people who see melanin as
00:22:01.440 animal skin.
00:22:02.760 I am not as nasty as a swastika painted on a pride flag.
00:22:09.160 And I didn't know devils could be resurrected, but I feel Hitler in these streets.
00:22:17.080 But she's not as nasty.
00:22:18.040 I'm a stash.
00:22:18.900 Keep in mind.
00:22:21.400 She's comparing him to devils and Hitler, but she's not as nasty as he is.
00:22:26.220 And when she said, I feel Hitler in the streets, I thought, well, you're kind of the one in the
00:22:29.960 street right now.
00:22:30.920 All right.
00:22:31.420 You're reciting awful poetry that I think the Nazis wouldn't have even done.
00:22:36.880 I saw in the New York Times, congratulations to the New York Times for running this story.
00:22:43.220 It is by Azra Nomani.
00:22:45.700 She is a former Wall Street Journal reporter.
00:22:49.060 Here's the headline.
00:22:49.760 Billionaire George Soros has ties to more than 50 partners of the Women's March on Washington.
00:22:56.080 What is the link between one of Hillary Clinton's largest donors and the Women's March?
00:22:59.440 Turns out it's quite significant.
00:23:01.880 That's the headline.
00:23:03.900 Azra is with us now to tell us a little bit about the connections.
00:23:07.000 Azra, thank you for writing this story.
00:23:09.940 Oh, my gosh, Glenn.
00:23:10.780 You must be thinking, see, I'm not crazy.
00:23:14.500 Somebody else has figured it out.
00:23:16.040 I know.
00:23:16.840 You felt lonely, right?
00:23:18.680 Yes, I did.
00:23:21.820 Now it's your turn to feel lonely.
00:23:23.920 Yeah, I got to tell you, it is a machine out there that wants to shut down this conversation.
00:23:31.320 I just got done telling one of my fellow journalists, a woman who supports the march, you know, there are supposed to be no sacred cows in journalism, and that includes the Women's March, and that includes George Soros.
00:23:44.560 And what's she saying?
00:23:45.280 They tell me that I am biased, and, you know, and I say to them, but this is the point.
00:23:53.560 The Women's March was a biased march.
00:23:56.720 I mean, Ashley Judd, when I, you know, was looking back at another spreadsheet I'm doing on the speakers, was a clear Hillary Clinton supporter.
00:24:06.160 You know, so she said, she has a famous quote during the campaign, are there any other qualified candidates?
00:24:13.740 Absolutely, but I think Hillary Clinton is the most overqualified candidate we've had since Thomas Jefferson or George Washington.
00:24:20.480 So, you know, they put forward this march as a women's march, but really it was just for women who are anti-Trump.
00:24:27.300 And that's what I was noticing, because I had come out of the closet right after the election and wrote a piece for the Washington Post that I, as a Muslim, a woman, an immigrant, had voted for Trump.
00:24:39.980 And I did so largely influence by eight years of burying our heads in the sand on the issue of Islamic extremism.
00:24:49.120 Many other Muslims have also voted the same way because we're fed up of the Saudis and Qatar and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, you know, shoving this extremist interpretation of Islam down our throats.
00:25:04.060 And so then when this women's march emerged, I thought, you know what, I'm a feminist, I'm for women's rights.
00:25:09.400 But I noticed that there wasn't any room for people who didn't agree with the platform of Hillary Clinton and the very strong identity politics of the left.
00:25:22.460 And there are many of us who are liberal who refuse that politics.
00:25:27.040 And so I started doing my investigating, and that's how I've got this spreadsheet that folks can view.
00:25:32.940 You know, I've got it open on Google Docs, that amazing, you know, technology that we can use today.
00:25:41.860 And I saw the numbers, and I saw that, you know, there is a real bias in this march, and we should be honest about it.
00:25:49.260 So what was the reaction first from the New York Times?
00:25:53.300 Was it hard to get the Times to write this or print this?
00:25:57.000 Well, the wonderful thing is that Tina Brown, you know, a former publisher and editor at the Daily Beast, Vanity Fair,
00:26:05.840 has created this platform of the New York Times called Women in the World.
00:26:10.000 And it is a unique place where voices of, you know, I believe the spectrum of analysis is allowed
00:26:20.180 in a way that it's not even allowed on the pages of the opinion pages of the New York Times anymore.
00:26:27.000 And so, fortunately, we've got these outlets where we can still have, you know, the kind of straight, you know,
00:26:39.180 clear reporting and analysis that I tried to present with this piece.
00:26:44.220 So where are you going from here with this?
00:26:46.720 Because one of the co-chairs, and I think you point this out in your article, is someone that, you know,
00:26:54.700 most people would not look to as somebody who is looking at a favorable view of Islam from the Western point of view.
00:27:05.420 Yeah, the person you're speaking about, one of the co-chairs, is Linda Sarsour.
00:27:08.720 And she has, you know, been a really polarizing and, you know, controversial figure in our Muslim community,
00:27:20.860 as well as in the country.
00:27:23.600 There is a photo in which she has a young boy with rocks in his hand aimed toward Israeli soldiers.
00:27:30.700 And her message on this photo is that this is an image of courage.
00:27:39.460 And so I have been aware of the way that you, for example,
00:27:46.380 and many other people have been targeted by individuals like Linda Sarsour, including myself.
00:27:52.320 I have also been a target, you know, from the left to the right.
00:27:56.680 We've been targets when we have a serious conversation about Islamic extremism.
00:28:02.200 You know, Glenn, I know you're a very understated person, right?
00:28:06.740 Yeah, that's me.
00:28:08.360 You know, and so you have your flourishes, right, and how you present information.
00:28:13.420 But I know that I've read your work, I've followed your work,
00:28:16.760 and I know that at the heart of it is, you know, a very sincere effort to try to educate people
00:28:22.240 about an extremist ideology inside of Islam.
00:28:25.720 And we need to have that conversation.
00:28:28.400 But you have been targeted, Bill Maher has been targeted, you know, from the left to the right.
00:28:33.300 And I call these individuals the Honor Brigade.
00:28:37.620 They silence anybody who defames the supposed honor of Islam.
00:28:43.960 And so Linda Sarsour has been a character in this network.
00:28:49.340 And my effort now is to try to really expose the workings of this network
00:28:57.080 that has existed for the last 15 years since the 9-11 attacks
00:29:02.380 and brings us to this place where we're still debating whether there's an Islam in Islamic extremism.
00:29:09.960 We're still debating whether there's an Islam in the Islamic State.
00:29:13.120 And to me, all these issues come together because, you know, 15 years ago,
00:29:19.000 my colleague and friend Danny Pearl was kidnapped off the streets of Pakistan.
00:29:24.720 I was pregnant by a boyfriend there in Pakistan.
00:29:29.920 I didn't even know it as I waved goodbye to Danny.
00:29:33.780 My boyfriend bailed on me that day, and so I was left single.
00:29:37.940 I was a criminal as a woman, according to the interpretations of Islam that are put forward by the government of Pakistan.
00:29:46.140 And then Danny was murdered because he was Jewish.
00:29:50.160 And so there is a casualty for women, for others, if we don't deal with this issue of Islamic extremism.
00:29:57.560 And my hope and intention as a journalist is to try to show the propaganda that silences this conversation,
00:30:05.440 you know, including you, Glenn.
00:30:07.920 So, Ezra, where do you go from here?
00:30:09.780 Because I am trying to change my tone, not my principles, but change my tone,
00:30:16.020 and to admit my mistakes, and to really try to listen.
00:30:22.620 But it's going to take people on the other side to do the same thing.
00:30:28.620 And I saw this march this weekend, and I thought,
00:30:32.060 Donald Trump is going to go to war with the press,
00:30:35.760 and the press is going to go to war with him,
00:30:37.900 and the left, the activists, will stir it up on the streets,
00:30:41.920 and we're in trouble.
00:30:43.640 We're just, the hate is just going to grow more and more out of control.
00:30:48.380 Are you seeing any movement at all from the liberal circles in the press
00:30:53.740 that are starting to say, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:30:57.060 Maybe we have some of this wrong.
00:31:00.960 Well, you know, first I want to say, you know,
00:31:03.740 thank you for your own personal journey to coming to this place,
00:31:06.980 because, you know, we all do that.
00:31:08.520 Like, you know, we have, we're passionate about issues.
00:31:12.520 Our voices express it.
00:31:14.800 And I appreciate, you know, the soul-searching that you've done
00:31:17.680 and sharing it with people.
00:31:19.340 I think that takes a lot of moral courage,
00:31:21.420 and I just want to thank you for that.
00:31:24.120 You know, and the fact that we're even having this conversation,
00:31:27.200 you know, Glenn, you and me, we're both of completely different identities.
00:31:31.120 But I really do believe that we both stand on this middle path
00:31:34.760 where we don't want to be, you know, pulled and stretched by the extremes.
00:31:42.040 We all, you know, grow in our lives.
00:31:44.920 You evolve.
00:31:46.080 I evolve.
00:31:46.920 We all evolve.
00:31:47.700 And I think it's on us, you know.
00:31:50.160 I don't know if we can have much hope in a lot of our media outlets,
00:31:54.720 but I do know that I hear personally, secretly, from fellow journalists
00:31:59.940 who thank me for the work that I'm doing,
00:32:02.380 because they're sick and tired of the bias also.
00:32:06.520 You know, I couldn't even watch CNN's coverage of the Women's March.
00:32:11.520 I can barely, you know, watch anything but C-SPAN nowadays, right,
00:32:15.560 because it's just there.
00:32:16.060 Yeah, it's just the raw fact.
00:32:18.260 Yeah.
00:32:18.760 Yeah.
00:32:19.520 And, Glenn, it's on us.
00:32:21.120 You know, I really believe that, you know,
00:32:23.040 we have to be the civility we want to see in the world,
00:32:26.760 to use the Mahatma Gandhi quote,
00:32:30.660 but continue, you know, to have very clear analysis,
00:32:35.480 like not pull our punches, you know,
00:32:37.180 when it comes to clear reporting.
00:32:39.740 And I want to, you know,
00:32:44.060 invite everyone to also, you know,
00:32:45.980 walk on that middle path with us
00:32:47.900 and, you know, not engage in name-calling or vitriol,
00:32:51.340 but really be the civility we want to see.
00:32:55.000 Ezra, I hope we get a chance to meet someday.
00:32:57.180 I am a huge fan of your courage,
00:33:03.480 and I truly believe courage is contagious.
00:33:06.480 We just have to see more examples around it, around us,
00:33:10.500 and people will join in.
00:33:12.540 And I'm so grateful that the New York Times
00:33:16.040 gave you the space to run this article
00:33:18.500 and that you took the time to do the research on it
00:33:21.320 and spoke the truth.
00:33:22.360 Thank you so much.
00:33:23.560 No, and thank you, Glenn, for your courage,
00:33:25.500 because it takes a lot to grow in this world,
00:33:28.040 and you're always doing it as we all are.
00:33:30.060 Thank you.

00:33:45.760 Billionaire George Soros has ties
00:33:47.440 to more than 50 partners
00:33:48.780 of the Women's March in Washington.
00:33:51.100 What is the link between Hillary's largest donor
00:33:53.720 and the Women's March?
00:33:55.020 Turns out it's quite significant.
00:33:57.320 A huge story for the New York Times to run.
00:34:00.840 It doesn't seem to be a conspiracy theory anymore.
00:34:05.180 Please look that up.
00:34:06.460 I'll post it at glennbeck.com,
00:34:08.460 and I'll post it up on my Facebook page.

00:34:15.620 Now this.
00:34:17.380 Imagine losing $40,000 in a single burglary.
00:34:22.260 You come home,
00:34:23.020 and I don't even know what you have in your house
00:34:24.620 that would be worth $40,000.
00:34:25.920 They steal everything in your house.
00:34:27.360 $40,000, gone.
00:34:30.260 That's what happened to one homeowner
00:34:31.780 in Los Angeles last month.
00:34:34.280 The perp dragged the homeowner's safe
00:34:36.500 all the way down the stairs,
00:34:38.360 out the door,
00:34:39.560 and into the getaway car.
00:34:42.520 So how'd he break in?
00:34:44.160 He broke a windowpane.
00:34:46.100 One single windowpane,
00:34:47.820 reached in,
00:34:48.620 unlocked the back door,
00:34:50.280 and came in.
00:34:51.340 Doesn't have glass break sensors.
00:34:52.980 Doesn't have motion sensors.
00:34:54.300 Has nothing.
00:34:54.680 Has $40,000 in a safe?
00:34:56.600 But no security?

00:35:56.520 I find it amazing
00:35:58.260 that this woman

00:36:04.380 Billionaire George Soros

00:36:13.940 of the American Humanist Association,
00:36:15.980 a March partner,
00:36:18.020 told me his organization
00:36:18.920 was nonpartisan

00:36:21.000 quote,
00:36:21.080 many concerns
00:36:21.740 about the incoming
00:36:22.380 Trump administration
00:36:23.200 that include
00:36:23.760 what they see

00:36:29.500 of American Atheists,
00:36:30.880 another March partner,
00:36:31.800 told me this is not partisan.
00:36:33.980 Dennis Wiley,
00:36:34.740 pastor of the Covenant
00:36:35.500 Baptist United Church of Christ,
00:36:37.220 another partner,
00:36:38.060 returned my call
00:36:38.700 and said it's not
00:36:39.300 a partisan march.
00:36:41.340 Really?
00:36:42.520 UniteWomen.org,
00:36:43.700 another partner,
00:36:44.340 features videos
00:36:45.000 with hashtags,
00:36:46.120 quote,
00:36:46.460 I'm with,
00:36:46.900 I mean,
00:36:47.160 hashtag I'm with her,
00:36:48.640 hashtag Dems in Philly,
00:36:50.400 and hashtag Thanks Obama.
00:36:52.500 Following the money,
00:36:53.520 I poured through
00:36:54.020 the documents
00:36:54.600 of billionaire George Soros
00:36:55.740 and his open society
00:36:56.660 philanthropy
00:36:57.200 because I wondered
00:36:58.260 what's the link
00:36:59.220 between one of Hillary's
00:37:00.260 largest donors
00:37:00.940 and the Women's March.
00:37:02.140 I found out plenty.
00:37:05.220 But a draft of my research,
00:37:06.880 which I'm opening up
00:37:08.100 for crowdsourcing
00:37:08.980 on Google Docs,
00:37:10.100 Soros has funded
00:37:10.940 or has relationships
00:37:12.360 with at least 56
00:37:13.600 of the march's partners,
00:37:14.960 including key partners,
00:37:16.680 Planned Parenthood,
00:37:17.480 which opposes
00:37:18.020 Trump's anti-abortion policy,
00:37:20.260 the National Resource
00:37:21.140 Defense Council,
00:37:22.000 which opposes
00:37:22.500 Trump's environmental policies,
00:37:24.500 and other Soros ties
00:37:25.660 with women's march organizations.
00:37:27.940 See,
00:37:28.180 this is the deal.
00:37:29.520 You couldn't write this
00:37:31.260 about the Tea Party.
00:37:32.140 When the Tea Party
00:37:32.840 first started,
00:37:34.460 and really all the way through
00:37:36.240 until the GOP
00:37:38.440 started co-opting
00:37:39.740 some of them,
00:37:41.280 you couldn't write this.
00:37:43.440 They didn't have
00:37:44.260 groups behind them.
00:37:46.820 We didn't have
00:37:47.700 the Soros groups
00:37:48.740 or any connection
00:37:50.160 to any groups.
00:37:51.360 It was Steve
00:37:53.160 and Bill
00:37:53.900 and Mary.
00:37:55.620 They were
00:37:56.480 just regular people.
00:37:58.660 And the Koch brothers.
00:38:00.080 What about the Koch brothers?
00:38:01.300 Koch brothers.
00:38:01.960 Just to my knowledge,
00:38:03.700 at least on
00:38:04.120 the 912 project,
00:38:06.600 didn't ever give a dime.
00:38:09.040 Except for the Koch brothers.
00:38:11.220 This is
00:38:12.140 the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:44.500 Hello and welcome
00:38:45.560 to the program.
00:38:46.640 A lot to cover today.
00:38:48.180 We want to talk
00:38:49.260 a little bit about
00:38:50.200 alternate facts.
00:38:53.560 Do alternate facts
00:38:55.340 exist
00:38:56.060 or in a world
00:38:58.400 where reason
00:38:59.120 is not treason
00:38:59.980 they are just
00:39:01.340 lies.
00:39:04.720 We'll decide.
00:39:06.060 And then
00:39:06.620 Chuck Todd,
00:39:08.660 you wanted to know
00:39:09.980 why the president
00:39:11.820 would send somebody out
00:39:13.140 with a lie
00:39:14.260 and you wanted,
00:39:15.840 as the press,
00:39:16.660 wanted to get
00:39:17.420 to that right away.
00:39:19.180 But
00:39:20.960 did you notice
00:39:23.000 all the other lies
00:39:24.460 that have been told
00:39:25.360 in the last eight years?
00:39:26.560 They don't make
00:39:27.260 these lies right,
00:39:28.420 understand.
00:39:29.800 But it also makes
00:39:31.200 you look like
00:39:32.120 a total hypocrite.
00:39:33.900 And that's where
00:39:34.760 I want to begin
00:39:35.480 right now.
00:39:36.260 I will make a stand
00:39:39.560 I will raise my voice
00:39:41.840 I will hold your hand
00:39:44.080 Cause we are one
00:39:46.060 I will beat my drum
00:39:48.260 I have made my choice
00:39:50.480 We will overcome
00:39:52.200 Cause we are one
00:39:54.980 The fusion of entertainment
00:39:56.820 and enlightenment.
00:39:58.920 This is
00:39:59.580 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:03.760 If you're watching
00:40:05.280 the program
00:40:05.960 on Dish
00:40:07.940 or any of the other
00:40:08.740 cable networks
00:40:09.480 that carry us
00:40:10.600 or you're watching online
00:40:11.480 you just saw Chuck Schumer
00:40:12.740 and Mike Lee
00:40:13.420 singing our theme song
00:40:14.540 together
00:40:14.860 which took a lot
00:40:16.920 to get them to do
00:40:17.860 but that's a different story.
00:40:19.740 Welcome to the program
00:40:20.400 Glad you're here.
00:40:22.560 Let's
00:40:23.040 let's start
00:40:24.620 with alternative facts.
00:40:27.020 Now
00:40:27.220 Chuck Todd
00:40:30.180 and the rest of the media
00:40:32.620 there are
00:40:36.080 I'm trying to
00:40:37.860 I don't want to
00:40:39.020 critique you.
00:40:40.880 What I want to do
00:40:42.440 is
00:40:43.480 see if you will
00:40:45.920 look at things
00:40:46.920 from a different
00:40:48.280 point of view.
00:40:49.720 How am I doing Pat?
00:40:51.120 It's pretty good so far.
00:40:52.400 Better than I could have done.
00:40:53.500 Yes.
00:40:54.200 So
00:40:54.760 I want you to look at it
00:40:56.460 from a different
00:40:57.120 point of view.
00:40:57.720 I need you to look
00:41:00.340 at
00:41:00.920 the way
00:41:02.520 half of the country
00:41:04.140 if you're trying
00:41:05.140 to figure out
00:41:06.020 why don't we have
00:41:07.540 any credibility
00:41:08.220 then it requires
00:41:10.760 you to do some
00:41:11.480 actual soul searching
00:41:12.700 and not talk to
00:41:14.260 the people in your office
00:41:15.760 because
00:41:16.260 as Einstein said
00:41:18.160 the people
00:41:20.020 who created
00:41:20.760 the problem
00:41:21.360 cannot solve
00:41:22.800 the problem.
00:41:24.020 So come out
00:41:25.200 of that echo chamber
00:41:26.360 and let's have
00:41:27.440 a discussion.
00:41:29.040 This is a good
00:41:29.960 example.
00:41:31.500 When you said
00:41:32.760 when you said
00:41:34.600 to Kellyanne Conway
00:41:36.280 this weekend
00:41:37.300 this
00:41:38.220 and you did not
00:41:39.000 answer the question
00:41:40.040 I did answer your question.
00:41:42.400 You did not answer
00:41:43.080 the question of
00:41:43.820 why the president
00:41:44.660 asked the White House
00:41:46.140 press secretary
00:41:46.980 to come out
00:41:48.820 in front of the podium
00:41:50.160 for the first time
00:41:52.280 and utter a falsehood.
00:41:54.640 Why did he do that?
00:41:55.400 It undermines
00:41:56.240 the credibility
00:41:56.880 of the entire
00:41:58.060 White House
00:41:59.080 press office
00:41:59.760 on day one.
00:42:01.440 Stop.
00:42:01.760 When you said that
00:42:02.960 about
00:42:04.060 40%
00:42:05.800 of your
00:42:06.640 available audience
00:42:07.780 did this.
00:42:10.080 You have
00:42:11.260 got
00:42:11.900 to be kidding me
00:42:13.080 and here's why.
00:42:15.420 Lie
00:42:15.720 after lie
00:42:16.620 after lie
00:42:17.540 came out
00:42:18.640 of the White House
00:42:19.560 press room
00:42:20.800 during the Obama
00:42:22.560 administration
00:42:23.400 and you all
00:42:24.720 sat there
00:42:25.300 like bumps
00:42:26.000 on the log
00:42:26.600 and you
00:42:27.620 you either
00:42:28.660 reported it
00:42:29.680 or you just
00:42:30.800 let it slide.
00:42:32.660 And some
00:42:33.540 of us
00:42:33.880 were saying
00:42:34.280 guys
00:42:34.620 you cannot
00:42:35.940 do this
00:42:36.760 because the
00:42:37.660 next guy
00:42:38.300 if you let
00:42:39.140 this go
00:42:39.800 the next
00:42:40.700 guy
00:42:41.120 will be
00:42:41.820 even worse.
00:42:42.740 now here's
00:42:45.900 how
00:42:46.140 Kellyanne
00:42:46.720 Conway
00:42:47.220 answered that
00:42:48.460 proving
00:42:49.700 by point.
00:42:50.880 So don't be
00:42:51.580 so overly
00:42:52.140 dramatic
00:42:52.580 about it
00:42:53.100 Chuck.
00:42:53.520 What
00:42:53.620 you're saying
00:42:54.560 it's a
00:42:54.860 falsehood
00:42:55.300 and they're
00:42:55.740 giving
00:42:56.040 Sean Spicer
00:42:56.820 our press
00:42:57.240 secretary
00:42:57.700 gave
00:42:58.540 alternative
00:42:59.740 facts to
00:43:00.460 that.
00:43:00.800 But the
00:43:00.960 point.
00:43:01.280 Stop.
00:43:02.280 What?
00:43:04.760 Alternative
00:43:05.400 facts?
00:43:07.240 So good.
00:43:08.040 Those are
00:43:08.360 lies.
00:43:09.040 Wow.
00:43:09.620 And what
00:43:10.000 they're talking
00:43:10.620 about is
00:43:11.420 and this is
00:43:11.900 the most
00:43:12.460 ridiculous
00:43:13.240 lie.
00:43:14.400 Why
00:43:14.780 Donald?
00:43:16.280 Why would
00:43:17.060 you do
00:43:17.340 this?
00:43:18.880 Donald Trump
00:43:19.520 set the
00:43:20.020 press secretary
00:43:20.640 out to say
00:43:21.480 this was the
00:43:22.140 largest crowd
00:43:23.260 of any
00:43:23.940 inauguration
00:43:24.680 ever.
00:43:26.200 No it
00:43:26.660 wasn't.
00:43:27.240 The pictures
00:43:28.080 clearly show
00:43:29.220 it wasn't.
00:43:29.700 But it
00:43:30.460 doesn't
00:43:30.980 matter.
00:43:32.460 First of
00:43:33.260 all it
00:43:34.120 was the
00:43:34.500 first black
00:43:35.600 president
00:43:36.280 inaugurated
00:43:38.360 in Washington
00:43:39.700 D.C.
00:43:41.420 It was
00:43:41.960 historic
00:43:43.040 for African
00:43:44.540 Americans
00:43:45.180 alone.
00:43:46.600 People who
00:43:47.400 wanted to
00:43:47.920 bring their
00:43:48.340 kids there
00:43:49.040 to see
00:43:49.880 history.
00:43:50.880 The first
00:43:51.900 time it
00:43:52.960 had ever
00:43:53.320 happened.
00:43:54.080 I got news
00:43:54.560 for you.
00:43:55.560 Except for
00:43:56.180 the last
00:43:56.660 one every
00:43:57.620 single one
00:43:58.240 of them was
00:43:58.720 a white
00:43:59.140 guy.
00:44:00.680 Almost
00:44:01.000 every single
00:44:01.760 one of
00:44:02.120 them was
00:44:02.420 a rich
00:44:02.820 white guy.
00:44:03.580 There was
00:44:03.780 no first
00:44:04.300 tier.
00:44:05.700 Yes it
00:44:06.400 was you
00:44:07.260 could say
00:44:07.680 that it
00:44:07.940 was historic
00:44:08.640 in different
00:44:09.500 ways but
00:44:10.960 not the
00:44:11.820 way it
00:44:12.160 was with
00:44:12.580 Obama.
00:44:13.560 Plus it
00:44:14.980 was in
00:44:15.360 the District
00:44:15.960 of Columbia.
00:44:17.740 A.
00:44:19.080 Very heavy
00:44:20.100 black
00:44:20.540 population.
00:44:22.520 B.
00:44:23.180 The surrounding
00:44:24.140 area is
00:44:25.520 flame throwing
00:44:26.840 liberal.
00:44:27.460 liberal.
00:44:28.460 It leans
00:44:28.760 liberal
00:44:29.660 definitely
00:44:30.680 progressive.
00:44:32.400 Of course
00:44:33.280 he had a
00:44:33.840 bigger crowd.
00:44:34.960 If you
00:44:35.620 would have
00:44:35.940 done the
00:44:36.580 inauguration
00:44:37.200 in Texas
00:44:38.880 you would
00:44:40.480 have had a
00:44:40.900 bigger crowd.
00:44:41.580 Trump earned
00:44:43.880 4% of the
00:44:45.140 vote in
00:44:45.600 Washington
00:44:46.140 D.C.
00:44:46.780 4.
00:44:46.980 Of course
00:44:48.320 he's not
00:44:48.840 going to
00:44:49.040 have a
00:44:49.440 bigger crowd.
00:44:49.880 It's meaningless.
00:44:50.600 It doesn't
00:44:51.000 mean anything
00:44:51.360 about his
00:44:51.720 presidency.
00:44:52.480 It doesn't
00:44:52.700 mean anything
00:44:53.200 about people
00:44:54.620 aren't inspired
00:44:55.480 by him.
00:44:56.200 It means
00:44:56.700 absolutely
00:44:57.680 nothing.
00:44:58.560 Here's
00:45:00.480 something else.
00:45:01.260 Everybody
00:45:01.620 who voted
00:45:02.520 for you
00:45:03.040 Donald
00:45:03.400 I shouldn't
00:45:04.580 say everybody
00:45:05.060 a lot of
00:45:05.620 people
00:45:05.840 they despise
00:45:07.320 Washington D.C.
00:45:08.320 now.
00:45:09.240 They don't
00:45:09.720 like the
00:45:10.340 Capitol.
00:45:10.900 They don't
00:45:11.220 like the
00:45:11.560 people in
00:45:12.060 the Capitol.
00:45:13.120 They're sick
00:45:13.760 of it.
00:45:14.040 They think
00:45:14.340 the whole
00:45:14.860 thing is
00:45:15.460 corrupt.
00:45:16.660 Why would
00:45:17.320 they be
00:45:17.660 going to
00:45:18.240 Washington?
00:45:19.360 They want
00:45:19.780 to see you
00:45:20.240 as the
00:45:20.580 outsider
00:45:21.100 not as
00:45:21.540 the grand
00:45:22.060 insider.
00:45:24.200 So they
00:45:24.860 don't
00:45:25.020 they're not
00:45:25.340 connected
00:45:25.880 to it.
00:45:27.000 It's
00:45:27.500 different
00:45:28.100 than it
00:45:28.700 was with
00:45:29.220 Ronald
00:45:29.500 Reagan.
00:45:30.180 And it's
00:45:30.840 meaningless
00:45:31.560 Donald Trump.
00:45:32.740 It's
00:45:33.020 meaningless.
00:45:33.940 I should
00:45:34.140 start calling
00:45:34.620 him Mr.
00:45:35.040 President.
00:45:35.880 It's
00:45:36.260 meaningless.
00:45:38.180 It says
00:45:39.060 nothing about
00:45:39.780 you.
00:45:40.540 It says
00:45:40.860 nothing about
00:45:41.340 your
00:45:41.500 administration.
00:45:43.700 But to
00:45:44.540 send somebody
00:45:45.340 out to
00:45:46.300 lie does
00:45:48.220 say something
00:45:48.840 about you
00:45:49.500 and not
00:45:50.060 good things.
00:45:51.840 Why would
00:45:52.740 you do
00:45:53.000 that?
00:45:53.780 Why?
00:45:55.040 Stop it.
00:45:56.400 Please.
00:45:57.120 For the
00:45:57.420 sake of the
00:45:57.900 republic.
00:45:58.780 For the
00:45:59.340 sake of
00:45:59.740 your
00:46:00.060 administration.
00:46:01.700 Stop with
00:46:02.400 the easy
00:46:03.040 lies.
00:46:05.120 You're not
00:46:05.760 going to get
00:46:06.080 away with
00:46:06.460 them.
00:46:06.740 I mean I
00:46:07.240 know Barack
00:46:08.020 Obama you
00:46:09.020 can keep
00:46:09.580 your doctor.
00:46:10.380 If you like
00:46:10.760 your doctor you
00:46:11.240 can keep
00:46:11.660 it.
00:46:12.100 That was a
00:46:12.920 lie but it
00:46:13.460 wasn't even
00:46:14.080 an easy
00:46:14.760 lie.
00:46:20.620 You got to
00:46:21.380 stop and
00:46:22.540 you got to
00:46:23.000 be president.
00:46:23.520 government.
00:46:24.860 Now back
00:46:25.920 to Chuck
00:46:26.360 Todd.
00:46:27.640 Chuck are
00:46:29.340 you out of
00:46:29.680 your mind?
00:46:31.260 Really?
00:46:32.120 I like you.
00:46:33.220 I like
00:46:33.560 Meet the
00:46:33.920 Press.
00:46:34.220 I think you
00:46:34.560 guys have
00:46:34.880 credibility.
00:46:36.560 Whatever's
00:46:36.940 left of
00:46:37.580 credibility in
00:46:38.500 Washington you
00:46:39.560 have some.
00:46:40.980 Please know
00:46:43.420 that when you
00:46:44.340 say things
00:46:45.320 like that you
00:46:46.840 need to say
00:46:47.900 look I know
00:46:50.400 the press
00:46:50.920 let a lot
00:46:51.400 of stuff
00:46:51.840 slip with
00:46:52.700 Barack Obama
00:46:53.360 but we've
00:46:54.620 talked about
00:46:55.100 it here and
00:46:56.320 there's a new
00:46:56.780 era.
00:46:57.340 If we had
00:46:57.640 Obama to do
00:46:59.060 over again
00:46:59.660 there are
00:47:00.200 some things
00:47:00.820 that we
00:47:01.200 wouldn't do.
00:47:02.340 Do you
00:47:02.640 notice that
00:47:03.200 the press
00:47:03.680 asks me
00:47:04.480 every single
00:47:05.600 time you
00:47:06.820 say you're
00:47:07.280 sorry can
00:47:08.060 you be
00:47:08.380 specific about
00:47:10.080 what?
00:47:10.900 What was it
00:47:11.440 that you said
00:47:11.960 that you
00:47:12.180 didn't every
00:47:12.800 single time
00:47:13.700 for five
00:47:14.700 years they've
00:47:15.620 been doing
00:47:15.860 that to me.
00:47:16.620 I mean I
00:47:16.900 finally said
00:47:17.660 I'm not saying
00:47:18.460 it anymore you
00:47:19.400 go look up I've
00:47:20.160 done plenty
00:47:20.620 of interviews
00:47:21.100 everywhere look
00:47:22.480 those things
00:47:23.080 up I'm done
00:47:24.020 you've never
00:47:25.700 said it Chuck
00:47:26.800 nobody in the
00:47:27.840 media has said
00:47:28.900 these are the
00:47:30.260 mistakes we
00:47:31.160 made that would
00:47:32.340 go so far
00:47:33.680 too because
00:47:34.680 so far thing
00:47:35.360 is being
00:47:36.020 critical of
00:47:36.620 Chuck Todd
00:47:37.220 on this
00:47:37.700 particular clip
00:47:38.740 we just played
00:47:39.380 is a little
00:47:40.020 weird because
00:47:40.780 he didn't do
00:47:41.380 anything wrong
00:47:41.980 on that clip
00:47:42.380 nope he did
00:47:43.240 he handled that
00:47:44.360 the correct way
00:47:45.520 Kelly Ann Conway
00:47:46.820 is is doing
00:47:48.000 something she
00:47:48.440 should not be
00:47:49.060 doing correct
00:47:49.640 which I mean I
00:47:50.420 understand it's
00:47:51.060 your job
00:47:51.480 and I like
00:47:51.920 the president
00:47:52.340 Kelly Ann
00:47:53.200 I like she's
00:47:55.020 a very nice
00:47:55.580 person behind
00:47:56.160 the scenes
00:47:56.420 I don't
00:47:56.980 necessarily agree
00:47:57.860 with what she's
00:47:58.440 doing now
00:47:59.000 publicly but I
00:48:00.300 like her behind
00:48:00.980 her on the
00:48:01.740 cruise campaign
00:48:02.240 yeah she
00:48:02.780 worked for a
00:48:03.480 cruise super
00:48:03.860 pack
00:48:04.040 yeah
00:48:04.220 and so but
00:48:05.640 I mean the
00:48:06.000 idea here is
00:48:06.920 that you I
00:48:09.500 understand it's
00:48:09.960 your job to
00:48:10.360 defend the
00:48:10.860 president but
00:48:11.700 to come out
00:48:12.320 and and with
00:48:13.160 you know
00:48:13.400 alternative facts
00:48:14.240 it's bizarre
00:48:14.900 and it should
00:48:15.640 be wrong and
00:48:16.320 I guarantee
00:48:16.800 you everyone
00:48:17.980 here there
00:48:18.760 would be 100%
00:48:20.140 agreement if
00:48:21.400 Barack Obama
00:48:22.340 or Josh
00:48:23.660 Ernest came
00:48:24.480 out and said
00:48:25.060 by the way
00:48:25.760 yeah I know
00:48:26.880 every piece of
00:48:27.760 evidence points
00:48:28.380 to a but we're
00:48:29.180 giving you B as
00:48:29.900 an alternative
00:48:30.380 fact I mean
00:48:31.880 they did it
00:48:32.800 constantly we
00:48:33.860 didn't accept it
00:48:34.580 even when they
00:48:35.420 didn't define it
00:48:36.160 as an alternative
00:48:36.840 fact they just
00:48:37.460 said it was the
00:48:37.880 truth it was wrong
00:48:38.840 then it's wrong
00:48:39.440 now and Chuck
00:48:40.680 Todd is right to
00:48:41.440 call her out on
00:48:41.960 this but he
00:48:42.620 should have been
00:48:43.260 doing it more
00:48:43.840 and should I
00:48:44.760 think take the
00:48:45.220 extra step and
00:48:45.760 say look we
00:48:46.580 did let that
00:48:47.200 stuff slide that
00:48:47.960 would go so
00:48:48.500 far so far on
00:48:49.800 the other on
00:48:50.220 the right it
00:48:50.780 would say look
00:48:51.420 okay well at
00:48:52.020 least they're
00:48:52.340 acknowledging that
00:48:53.520 they did these
00:48:54.040 things wrong
00:48:54.780 before as well
00:48:55.720 just you can't
00:48:57.460 just stop and
00:48:59.600 say oh I'm
00:49:01.180 I'm this no what
00:49:02.660 got you there
00:49:03.560 where was your
00:49:04.980 pivot point now
00:49:06.460 you've said you
00:49:08.060 have a logical
00:49:09.080 pivot point your
00:49:10.900 pivot point is we
00:49:12.520 just got our ass
00:49:13.460 handed to us and
00:49:14.880 it's because nobody
00:49:16.440 trusts us okay why
00:49:19.280 don't people trust
00:49:20.340 us well it's
00:49:21.560 Russia it's not
00:49:23.140 Russia it's you
00:49:25.400 you know when the
00:49:26.960 you know when
00:49:27.660 somebody used to
00:49:28.380 break up or you'd
00:49:29.160 break up with
00:49:29.640 somebody and they
00:49:30.720 you would always
00:49:31.960 say look it's it's
00:49:34.580 not you it's me I
00:49:36.680 want you to know
00:49:37.620 that you can't say
00:49:38.920 that with this
00:49:39.520 breakup it is you
00:49:41.020 it's not us it's
00:49:42.720 you and all you
00:49:44.960 have to do is
00:49:45.900 come if you want
00:49:46.680 to start the
00:49:47.200 relationship again
00:49:48.060 say here are the
00:49:49.600 mistakes that I

00:49:52.440 going to have to do
00:49:53.180 that almost all the
00:49:54.420 time for a while

00:49:57.460 me five years you're
00:50:00.660 going to have to say
00:50:01.360 that for a while

00:50:05.580 yesterday tweeted so
00:50:07.680 much stuff about the
00:50:08.780 press and I still
00:50:10.820 said look I
00:50:13.480 recognize the
00:50:14.620 problems I've made
00:50:16.700 is there anyone in
00:50:19.360 the press that will
00:50:20.300 recognize the
00:50:21.180 problems they are
00:50:22.300 currently making
00:50:23.400 it's out of control
00:50:26.560 and what people will

00:51:00.760 now if you will
00:51:02.380 accept that you

00:51:08.020 we'll give you some
00:51:09.480 of them coming up in
00:51:10.720 a second we have a
00:51:12.060 new president early
00:51:13.160 signs point to some
00:51:14.340 potential positive
00:51:15.520 outcomes of the new
00:51:16.400 administration some of
00:51:17.720 the things he did
00:51:18.400 right after he was
00:51:20.460 sworn in it was kind
00:51:21.860 of exciting when it
00:51:23.140 to see him go right to
00:51:24.900 work sit down right in
00:51:25.880 the capital and and
00:51:27.120 sign some sign some

00:51:35.320 they did there you
00:51:36.320 go yeah yeah he but
00:51:38.200 he was repealing
00:51:39.240 executive orders was
00:51:40.580 he not yeah one of
00:51:42.160 the repeals that he
00:51:43.660 made was a like a
00:51:45.380 a tax cut for middle
00:51:48.400 income people trying to
00:51:49.260 buy homes it was weird
00:51:51.120 it was it was so
00:51:52.220 anyway to start with
00:51:52.980 yes today is day one
00:51:55.900 today's the official
00:51:56.700 day one and if they do
00:51:58.560 the things they have
00:51:59.340 promised it's going to
00:52:00.300 be for good for the
00:52:01.080 economy however I want
00:52:03.480 you to know globalism
00:52:05.040 well it's done a lot of
00:52:06.300 good things like you
00:52:07.820 know help lift two
00:52:08.600 billion people out of
00:52:09.480 poverty around the
00:52:10.140 world capitalism and by
00:52:11.620 us sharing globally
00:52:12.700 that's good globalists
00:52:15.160 want to move towards a
00:52:16.620 cashless society and a
00:52:18.380 one world order that's
00:52:19.920 not good cashless society
00:52:22.560 a cashless society
00:52:24.360 would give the
00:52:24.900 governments of the

00:54:16.140 here in just a second I
00:54:17.360 just want to show the
00:54:18.240 press some of the things
00:54:20.080 that were said by Barack
00:54:21.420 Obama that you were
00:54:22.520 silent on and this is what
00:54:24.660 we heard and we wondered
00:54:26.680 why you didn't stop and
00:54:28.040 say hey that wasn't true
00:54:29.600 here's just a couple of
00:54:30.620 things you can keep your
00:54:31.520 plan if you are satisfied
00:54:32.740 with it if you like the
00:54:33.680 plan you have you can keep
00:54:34.940 it if you like your plan
00:54:36.440 knew that that wasn't true
00:54:38.100 from the very beginning we
00:54:39.600 knew that was over and
00:54:40.960 over again right you didn't
00:54:42.300 get there until it was too
00:54:43.560 late you could have done
00:54:45.760 the homework that we did
00:54:47.580 and said read the bill
00:54:50.080 there's no way you'll be
00:54:52.080 able to keep your doctor
00:54:53.980 there's no way but you
00:54:55.980 didn't you called us
00:54:57.620 conspiracy theorists until
00:54:59.180 it was too late but once
00:55:00.960 you got there and it was
00:55:01.860 too late it no longer
00:55:03.240 mattered it had already
00:55:05.080 passed I'm in this race to
00:55:07.240 take tell the lobbyists in
00:55:08.780 Washington that their days
00:55:09.980 of setting the agenda are
00:55:12.780 over they they have not
00:55:16.540 funded my campaign they
00:55:18.800 will not work in my
00:55:19.700 White House lie they won't
00:55:21.440 work in his life other than
00:55:22.860 the 64 he hired to work in
00:55:24.540 his White House they held
00:55:25.400 them they held his feet to
00:55:26.820 the fire over that and the
00:55:28.120 number one person that went
00:55:29.620 to visit him was Richard
00:55:30.820 Trumka and number two I
00:55:32.600 think was SEIU Andy Stern I
00:55:35.780 mean Andy Stern and his
00:55:37.780 people and where were you
00:55:39.640 on the Trumka saying I
00:55:41.500 talked to the White House
00:55:42.720 every single day where
00:55:45.620 were you on that when we
00:55:47.560 were debating health care
00:55:48.840 who was pushing it SEIU and
00:55:52.920 the AFL CIO and they were
00:55:55.000 in touch with the White
00:55:55.860 House every single day but
00:55:58.460 you didn't report on that
00:55:59.640 and when you did report on
00:56:01.260 the the fact that he was not
00:56:04.240 going to put any of these
00:56:05.100 lobbyists in the White House
00:56:06.180 it was very small and
00:56:08.700 almost angelic well no
00:56:10.400 president can really do
00:56:11.500 that at the very beginning
00:56:12.880 at least that's the way I
00:56:14.220 remember it now here's the
00:56:16.540 next one as a society we
00:56:18.400 choose to under invest in
00:56:20.600 decent schools we allow
00:56:23.320 poverty to fester so that
00:56:25.360 entire neighborhoods offer
00:56:27.240 no prospect for gainful
00:56:28.680 employment not true we refuse
00:56:31.020 to fund drug treatment and
00:56:33.180 mental health programs and
00:56:37.400 here it comes no we flood
00:56:39.840 communities with so many
00:56:42.040 guns that it is easier for a
00:56:43.880 teenager to buy a Glock than
00:56:45.840 get his hands on a computer or
00:56:47.760 even a book I mean that okay
00:56:49.560 absolutely where were you that
00:56:51.200 was really ludicrous where were
00:56:53.260 you on that that is the most
00:56:55.840 outrageous thing you could say at
00:56:58.520 a time when the country was
00:57:01.020 trying to get our arms around
00:57:03.940 school shootings the president
00:57:06.700 comes out and says it's easier to
00:57:08.980 get a Glock than a book or a
00:57:12.400 computer now here's what you're
00:57:14.320 thinking what he didn't take that
00:57:17.400 he didn't mean that literally you
00:57:21.740 just listen to the the overall
00:57:23.640 message he didn't mean that
00:57:24.880 literally well wait a minute isn't
00:57:27.800 that the argument that Trump
00:57:29.340 people are saying he doesn't mean
00:57:31.180 that literally it's the overall
00:57:33.860 direction why is it okay for your
00:57:36.880 side to say I've been thinking a
00:57:38.980 lot about bombing the White House
00:57:40.380 and them not being marked as a
00:57:42.280 terrorist but if somebody on the
00:57:44.200 right would have said I'm thinking
00:57:45.720 about blowing up the White House
00:57:47.100 they would have forever been
00:57:48.680 marked as a terrorist and if you
00:57:50.660 don't think that's true Sarah
00:57:53.020 Palin we're targeting these
00:57:54.880 districts that's the problem
00:57:58.540 press it's it's not that complex
00:58:00.420 you don't need a focus group it's
00:58:02.800 not that complex and if you if
00:58:07.920 there isn't someone if there isn't
00:58:10.720 someone with the authority I warn
00:58:13.840 you either this president or the
00:58:17.380 next president will start to say we
00:58:20.260 need to license reporters and
00:58:23.100 journalists we need to shut down
00:58:26.220 those outlets that are telling
00:58:29.360 alternative facts now those
00:58:32.740 alternative facts are only are get to
00:58:36.520 be designated by the person in power
00:58:39.120 press you think you have the handle on
00:58:46.200 the truth but someday there will be
00:58:48.620 someone in that office who says
00:58:50.220 that's not the truth what I say is
00:58:53.160 the truth and I will deem what you
00:58:56.020 can report and what you can't now you
00:58:58.600 will believe this now but I've been
00:59:02.160 saying the same thing and warning you
00:59:04.340 of this under Barack Obama not about
00:59:07.560 Obama that it will be him or the next
00:59:12.640 guy or the next guy after I don't know
00:59:15.420 who it will be it will be this
00:59:18.420 president the next one or the next
00:59:20.840 one after if we don't fix a the
00:59:25.340 civility and plant reason firmly in
00:59:29.880 her seat back in a minute
00:59:32.440 the Glenn Beck program you're listening to
00:59:53.940 the Glenn Beck program I'm gonna go to
00:59:58.260 bill in North Carolina hello bill you're
01:00:01.060 on the Glenn Beck program thank you so
01:00:03.240 much for taking my call Glenn I enjoy
01:00:04.820 the show very much thank you and I'd
01:00:07.960 like to offer just a little bit
01:00:09.240 different perspective and just you can
01:00:11.540 take it for what it is all right when I
01:00:14.600 listen to your show and your show is
01:00:18.140 based on alternative facts I get a lot of
01:00:20.940 quote-unquote facts from the news I get
01:00:23.060 quote-unquote facts from my liberal and
01:00:26.160 progressive friends here in good old Chapel Hill
01:00:28.540 North Carolina which is floating with them
01:00:30.240 and I use the information and I gather
01:00:33.840 from your show my own research other
01:00:36.380 shows on talk radio here in Raleigh that
01:00:38.760 as an alternate is alternate fact that's
01:00:42.640 what I say they are you have that I have
01:00:44.960 alternate fact no there's an interpretation
01:00:47.080 no you can know there's a different
01:00:49.080 analysis and they're the existing facts
01:00:51.080 there there might be additional there might
01:00:53.060 be additional facts is that what you mean
01:00:55.240 additional facts there's there's additional
01:00:57.920 facts and they're just absolute
01:00:58.960 alternatives to the facts that are given
01:01:00.820 in other places and you've done it rush
01:01:02.640 does it other people do it you have to
01:01:04.660 give me an example listen to well I went
01:01:06.860 back and listen to the videos when we
01:01:09.160 hours this morning I watched the the press
01:01:11.200 secretary come out and do a thing and
01:01:13.180 then I also watch it but it was after I
01:01:15.100 watched this ridiculous exchange I use the
01:01:17.260 term ridiculous carefully with Chuck Todd
01:01:19.520 and um Kelly and Carlson so when I went
01:01:23.380 back and tried to listen carefully some
01:01:25.100 of the things he said was it was the most
01:01:27.720 huge inauguration worldwide is what I
01:01:31.520 heard him say and that also the
01:01:33.520 alternative facts were the number of
01:01:35.060 people that had traveled to the area we
01:01:36.980 know here in North Carolina we had
01:01:38.360 thousands of people that they witnessed
01:01:40.200 thousands of people that couldn't even
01:01:41.240 get on the mall which is fine but the
01:01:43.460 alternative facts were we had a lot of
01:01:44.920 people here that couldn't even get in and
01:01:46.540 you're presenting the fact that it wasn't
01:01:48.320 real represented was it was the fact
01:01:50.340 there's a picture that was taken it had
01:01:52.220 less people in it he was given an
01:01:54.380 alternative set of facts saying we know
01:01:56.640 the number of people that have traveled
01:01:57.860 to the area we know he got that wrong
01:02:00.060 too but but I mean those weren't factual
01:02:02.700 either the numbers he quoted on the DC
01:02:04.940 Metro were not accurate yeah but we've
01:02:08.100 known since the Million Man March that
01:02:09.800 the National Park Service doesn't give
01:02:12.060 numbers we've known that I didn't say
01:02:13.980 we're not look we we're not we're on
01:02:16.940 your side on this I think it's a stupid
01:02:19.160 argument to have because it doesn't
01:02:21.420 matter it says nothing about President
01:02:24.040 Trump or his support nothing even if 15
01:02:27.000 people were there but it wouldn't say
01:02:28.720 anything but that's not what he was
01:02:30.440 talking about he did mention that there
01:02:32.940 were people that couldn't get in he did
01:02:34.660 mention all of that which was all the
01:02:36.500 way not also also not backed up by facts
01:02:39.380 but that is what he is saying but Bill he
01:02:42.200 said it was the most it was the largest
01:02:45.780 inauguration in attendance ever now not
01:02:50.920 not what I heard was and you can correct
01:02:53.840 me to get back and play it again and
01:02:55.300 correct me we're about to but it was yeah
01:02:58.340 that he said that this was the most viewed
01:03:00.460 no no he said that he said that that was
01:03:04.200 an additional he said that too but then
01:03:06.120 then you would be selecting facts and
01:03:09.300 playing the game we have to deal with the
01:03:11.400 fact of is this the largest attended
01:03:14.760 inaugural address ever the answer is no
01:03:18.500 the additional fact is it doesn't matter
01:03:21.580 and it shouldn't be it would be bizarre if
01:03:24.120 it was right it would be bizarre if it
01:03:26.180 was but here's what the here's what the
01:03:28.540 press secretary said so the inaugural
01:03:30.480 proceedings were intentionally framed in
01:03:32.220 a way in one particular tweet to minimize
01:03:35.040 the enormous support that had gathered on
01:03:37.300 national stop in one particular tweet now
01:03:43.640 it probably was wrongly cited in one
01:03:46.840 particular tweet one particular didn't
01:03:49.380 even say who's we really need to have our
01:03:52.740 president take a step back and look at a
01:03:56.020 bigger picture than one particular tweet go
01:03:59.260 ahead it was the most it was the most
01:04:00.720 proper day doesn't matter it's one
01:04:03.160 particular tweet and there's more of course
01:04:05.800 this is the first time people run nation
01:04:07.760 hang on hang on that floor coverings have
01:04:09.940 been used to protect the grass in the
01:04:11.300 mall stop not true not true 2013 they
01:04:14.140 used them i mean again there's pictures
01:04:15.840 all over the internet from the time that
01:04:18.380 they use the same floor coverings in 2013
01:04:20.880 so go ahead multiple inaccuracies here that
01:04:23.320 had the effect of highlighting any areas
01:04:25.220 where people were not standing that's
01:04:26.960 true past but the grass eliminated this
01:04:29.500 visual that's not also the first time some
01:04:32.260 fencing and magnetometers went as far back
01:04:34.720 on the wall preventing hundreds of
01:04:36.340 thousands of people from being able to
01:04:38.440 access them all as quickly as they had in
01:04:40.900 inaugurations past that's true secret
01:04:42.780 service says they did not use them
01:04:44.980 well they did not use them also yeah i mean
01:04:48.280 uh they did not use them secret service
01:04:50.920 denies the use of magnetometers to
01:04:52.540 reporters um i mean well caller for north
01:04:56.680 carolina today did say that they had
01:04:58.660 checkpoints that were manned by mps that
01:05:01.000 they only had two people on each side
01:05:02.860 letting people in individual and that
01:05:04.200 they were using different devices to
01:05:06.240 check people coming in and that's why
01:05:07.560 they stood there for four hours before
01:05:08.880 they went back out and it does seem like
01:05:10.840 to watch they did have some security
01:05:12.700 uh checkpoints however they've had
01:05:14.280 security checkpoints in the past so they
01:05:15.840 i would imagine they always okay go ahead
01:05:18.280 next one inaccurate numbers involving
01:05:20.740 crowd size were also tweeted no one had
01:05:23.720 numbers because the national park service
01:05:26.420 true which controls the national mall does
01:05:28.820 not put any out here we go this was the
01:05:31.160 largest audience to ever witness an
01:05:33.000 inauguration period the largest audience
01:05:36.500 to ever witness an inauguration period
01:05:40.360 untrue that's just why we went back and
01:05:42.940 said later that he talks about the online
01:05:45.000 presence it says witness but there's not
01:05:47.200 there's no there's no number to measure
01:05:49.120 the online viewers right and there's
01:05:51.380 of course you can't measure that and i will
01:05:54.180 tell you that i would have a hard time i
01:05:57.060 mean look bill you seem like a reasonable
01:05:58.880 guy it is very reasonable i'm a numbers
01:06:01.680 guy right it's very reasonable to say
01:06:04.520 that barack obama was a historic first
01:06:08.700 left right it doesn't matter that there
01:06:11.620 are people there just because of it there
01:06:13.580 were people in africa that wanted to see
01:06:17.160 the first african-american elected
01:06:20.280 president like huge swaths of people all
01:06:24.280 around the world that will never watch
01:06:26.600 another inauguration just watched it
01:06:29.100 because it was almost like the man on the
01:06:31.140 moon will you agree with me of course
01:06:34.120 absolutely so it may it doesn't even stand
01:06:38.180 to reason to say that it was the most
01:06:41.740 watched ever i'll give you an alternative
01:06:44.900 theory to that too because this came up
01:06:47.280 alternative theory
01:06:48.420 hang on alternative theory i'll get
01:06:51.020 blow up honestly people were watching this
01:06:53.360 thing on their phones people watching on
01:06:55.080 their on their computers trust me where i
01:06:57.340 work they were everywhere on the computers
01:06:59.220 watching this thing all day long because
01:07:01.960 they were waiting for something to blow up
01:07:04.100 they were waiting for the protesters to do
01:07:05.700 something ridiculous they're waiting so i'm
01:07:07.280 going to take a shot they were watching this
01:07:09.320 thing in numbers that i definitely did not
01:07:11.860 see with the last two even at the same job
01:07:14.140 even for something that historic it has
01:07:16.360 nothing to do with the history as much as
01:07:18.360 it has to do with theatrics it had to do
01:07:20.500 with the fact that they wanted to see
01:07:22.020 something blow up but again but that's your
01:07:24.820 experience that's your experience those are
01:07:26.960 not national numbers those are not right
01:07:28.640 that's your experience and quickly my
01:07:30.180 experience was i will tell you that my
01:07:32.560 experience was just the exact opposite
01:07:34.500 nobody around here watched it nobody watched
01:07:37.000 it nobody watched it um so but that's my
01:07:39.800 experience i mean i understand but that's
01:07:41.820 my experience even in liberal chapel hill
01:07:43.880 it was loaded with people watching this
01:07:46.200 guy some people cussing at their screen
01:07:48.260 yeah some people just i mean talking about
01:07:51.180 it at the for the rest of the day that's
01:07:53.620 all they talk but again and that is your
01:07:56.140 experience if you're in numbers guy you're
01:07:58.860 not gonna fall for that yeah i mean that's
01:08:00.540 that's anecdotal evidence which is not you
01:08:02.440 know again like we know from tv ratings that
01:08:05.940 it was i believe the fifth most watched which
01:08:08.660 is still good right i mean there's nothing
01:08:10.060 wrong with me which tv nobody around here
01:08:12.320 watches tv anymore nobody does bill bill bill
01:08:15.380 bill bill bill bill bill bill bill can i ask
01:08:19.400 you i thought you were a numbers guy not an
01:08:20.760 emotion guy yeah i mean it seems like
01:08:22.000 everything every time i bring up a number
01:08:23.460 we get something that's not a number from
01:08:25.040 the numbers guy i have another number
01:08:26.660 wait wait wait there's numbers bill can i
01:08:29.900 ask a question yes why does this matter so
01:08:33.460 much um i think for those of us who watch this
01:08:38.540 thing go up and and you give a different
01:08:40.900 perspective on the trump presidency than some of
01:08:43.140 the other people obviously on top ratio and the the gauntlet that was
01:08:48.400 thrown down it yes it wasn't pretty it wasn't smart to a certain extent it
01:08:53.440 wasn't perfect by a long shot but to come out of the gate and say
01:08:58.000 we're just not going to lay down and take a whip and and let you just roll
01:09:02.940 over us when you didn't do anything for the last eight years with what you
01:09:05.920 just played right before i came on that's good
01:09:08.160 that you know it's just there's there are a lot of people out here that are
01:09:12.540 just obviously fed up with you you're right it's not the best way to go
01:09:15.340 bad especially when you're throwing out so i think okay so you can't be fed up
01:09:18.340 with facts i mean facts are facts so so bill i think i understand what you're
01:09:22.560 saying and i think it plays into what matt is about to say matt in florida go
01:09:26.720 ahead you're on the glenbeck program
01:09:28.000 matt are you there
01:09:31.320 okay matt's not there what trump what he was going to say was trump
01:09:37.120 exaggerates because the press exaggerates well my mother used to say
01:09:42.800 two wrongs don't make a right and so we can't if you want to have credibility
01:09:47.880 you can't exaggerate and you can't be emotional about it now i know i'm an
01:09:54.200 emotional guy i get it but this times are too serious now
01:09:59.800 we if we're going to come together ever
01:10:03.780 then we have to we have to agree that there is such a thing
01:10:09.520 as measurements as facts as math there wasn't a such a thing as math
01:10:15.120 to barack obama right i mean the the the it was immoral and un-american to raise
01:10:22.800 the deficit and we he doubled it in eight years
01:10:26.080 math is math uh first of all fact check you're an emotional guy uh zero
01:10:31.040 pinocchios uh you nailed that one yes uh secondly okay because we could talk
01:10:35.500 about every radio station you heard when the
01:10:38.020 internet started coming on used to say things like we broadcast worldwide on the
01:10:41.660 internet because theoretically someone in uganda could
01:10:45.420 i guess turn on the radio station in your local town correct it was a sort of a bs
01:10:49.800 claim um and wanted to make you sound bigger
01:10:52.360 and that's sort of what spicer's doing here right like okay
01:10:55.380 because he said after he said period in the clip we played he said both
01:10:58.720 in person and worldwide so he said in person
01:11:01.280 as the biggest ever period period however
01:11:04.900 those are claims the worldwide claim yes we don't know the exact amount of people
01:11:09.480 who streamed it on god only knows how many sites were out there with technology
01:11:12.640 that wasn't available previously i you know you can make claims like that but
01:11:16.880 here's one you can't make okay we this is a quote from sean spicer
01:11:20.720 we know that 420 000 people use the dc metro public transit yesterday
01:11:26.380 which actually compares to 317 000 that used it for president obama's last
01:11:32.060 inaugural okay the actual numbers for president obama's last
01:11:36.780 inaugural was 783 000 not 317 so 783 000 he lied
01:11:44.280 completely on that number and for trump it wasn't 420 000 it was 571 000
01:11:50.480 so obama 2013 783 000 trump this year 571 000
01:11:57.520 then 1.1 million for obama in 2009 so 1.1 million is
01:12:03.600 double trump's uh number from uh this past week the actual number for an average day
01:12:11.000 on the dc metro is 639 000 trips which is more than trump's from from the inauguration day
01:12:17.640 does that mean anything about trump's presidency no it means nothing he might be the greatest
01:12:23.560 president of all time who cares if local people in that area where he got four percent of the vote
01:12:29.100 showed up to his inauguration who cares the point is why lie about it when you have actual people
01:12:36.500 in organizations that report the numbers all the time he's trying to do something different
01:12:41.560 glenn it's it's it's there's another goal here and remember all of that that you heard was in a
01:12:47.300 prepared statement it wasn't like he was caught off guard with some random question where he tried
01:12:52.700 to fudge his way through it that was a prepared statement to start the press conference all right
01:12:56.940 so look it's insanity so here's what's happened here's what's happened what were we planning on
01:13:02.300 talking about this hour do you remember
01:13:03.700 i don't listen to you in the breaks i know do you remember this hour uh chuck todd and the press
01:13:14.220 yeah and the way the press has turned this around i made one comment at the top and we talked about it
01:13:22.540 before we went on the air should we mention uh what spicer said yes because we have to be fair
01:13:30.860 we have to say he did that now let's concentrate on chuck todd the calls are all coming in about
01:13:39.740 spicer and defending the alternative fact do you see what you've just done donald trump has taken the
01:13:49.420 argument away you are defending a alternative fact instead of saying look at how the press has reported this
01:14:01.740 it's foolish you're giving them ammunition just just be happy with the facts as they are it was strong enough
01:14:14.140 it was good he doesn't have to be god just let it be sponsor this half hour is lifelock for now the

01:19:52.840 i'm gonna start right here i'm gonna start with it i'm gonna start with i get to the ran paul thing
01:19:57.800 it wasn't long ago when gwyneth paltrow raved about the benefits of
01:20:01.720 i'm gonna be very technical here not probably not a good idea i have no idea what it is will
01:20:09.640 that with a steaming of your private parts how's that okay wait steam steaming non-scientifically
01:20:17.480 proven process of sitting over a hot pot of boiling water filled with herbs for up to 45 minutes
01:20:26.040 i told you man i told you come on yes women should do that over a hot pot of boiling water
01:20:35.720 with herbs for 45 minutes to cleanse your uterus that's awesome and to balance your female
01:20:41.880 home or a whole hormone levels oh my god okay people would do anything oh my gosh she is she's
01:20:48.280 crazy i can't tell you the number of times i came home and found my wife standing on top of her stone
01:20:53.400 no boiling water i said honey why don't you come down off the stone oh no i've got another five
01:21:05.080 minutes is it cleansing time again i have to tell you that doesn't sound safe or sanitary no does it no
01:21:15.000 neither one of those two things no i mean the burns that one might get what a dumb i mean boiling
01:21:22.760 water too i mean it pops up oh no it's bad that's a bad i mean okay it will go above the water level
01:21:29.960 like there's bubbles okay she doesn't say hot water she doesn't say you know okay she doesn't say boiling
01:21:35.640 okay so most recently her lifestyle website goop which that's her lifestyle she has a lifestyle
01:21:46.360 website called goop.com don't pretend like you don't subscribe come on you're on goop all the
01:21:51.400 time how do you smell that g-o-o-p goop is your home page we all know what it is come on this is the
01:21:58.120 one that had the this is the website that promoted the the steaming the steaming okay
01:22:07.240 anyway she's out again on goop with some new advice for women and the new advice is that you need to go
01:22:16.440 out and buy a jade egg okay okay it's a solid made of solid jade at least the size of a golf ball
01:22:28.120 how do you well that's bad i i'm just afraid of what's coming all right you're supposed how much
01:22:35.800 would a jade egg i don't know but if you're gwyneth paltrow yeah you don't care you don't
01:22:40.280 care let the why doesn't everybody have a jade right right that's true come on it's like a
01:22:46.520 looks like you can go anywhere from 40 to 140 sort of dollars in that general is that a real jade
01:22:52.600 egg okay i don't know i don't know what i think you have to have a real jade egg i mean there are
01:22:58.120 a bunch of jade eggs um advertised okay uh as for goop is probably selling them you know what i bet
01:23:05.560 they are i bet they are anyway she suggests that you put that you insert that inside of yourself
01:23:12.840 wow and keep it there all day or while you're sleeping oh yeah yep yep yep for 66 a piece
01:23:23.800 the jade eggs once the strictly guarded secret of chinese queens and concubines to please their
01:23:29.960 emperors right will help you boost things and increase muscle tone and hormone balance and feminine
01:23:39.240 energy in general so they're only like 50 bucks you said still i will say right now you're thinking
01:23:44.040 to yourself i should google that i should google the goop thing the stupid site and see if they
01:23:50.360 talk about jade eggs which of course they do however you may if you're at work you may want to avoid the
01:23:55.240 diagrams they have created to show you exactly what to do with it i i have to tell you i i wish i could
01:24:04.040 insert a jade egg in me just so i just so at some point i could laugh so hard i would lay a jade egg
01:24:15.960 walking down that would be fun you're wearing a skirt walking down the road and just an egg falls out
01:24:20.840 of you and you know that's gonna happen oh my gosh oh that would be why are you walking for for
01:24:29.960 why are you walking so weird oh i've got a jade egg jade egg day yeah oh no this answers it though
01:24:36.200 it can cause toxic shocks oh yeah no they say it's really bad you might not want to do this yeah what
01:24:42.280 i am happy to say i don't believe anyone in our audience would ever do this it causes that even after
01:24:49.160 steaming i i'm not sure now the combination of the two i don't know okay no that's not covered um
01:24:55.720 so steaming would make bacteria grow even more would it not not with the special herbs and spices
01:25:02.200 you put in the water it's not there's 11 of them just like kentucky fried chicken it's great you know
01:25:07.400 just get a bucket of chicken pour some hot water over the chicken in the boiling water and then just
01:25:13.560 stand over it got oregano now you're talking yeah now you're talking you just have to crouch down
01:25:19.720 close to the chicken and then serve it to the kids all right go ahead um so you might be worried about
01:25:29.080 certain safety uh features of jade a yeah it might be a little strange right um they have a q a to help
01:25:36.360 you uh go through this excellent process uh can the egg get stuck or lost now yes one of them is
01:25:43.960 this in the article called jade eggs for your yoni uh yes i mean yoni yoni i don't yoni was the
01:25:52.440 this is the most common question no it can't get lost uh but these ones have a hole drilled in
01:26:06.680 them which you can then thread with unwaxed floss oh good to make it easier to take out right uh and
01:26:13.480 to generally ease any anxiety about about it right so you just gotta put the the floss in there and so
01:26:20.360 it's like the other thing and thread the women have to use wow there you go i wish she was marching
01:26:25.640 this weekend that's a weird freaking thing and yes by the way every doctor in america is saying
01:26:32.040 don't do this whatever you do but again we're in that point where i mean we are in a post uh fact
01:26:37.880 they've got alternate facts and they they talk about this all the time right they're going to sit here
01:26:41.560 and bash uh kelly ann conway for saying alternative facts all day but i mean this is the sort of stuff
01:26:46.840 the left does all the time particularly with medicine and the environment no no no these things
01:26:51.640 no no no look you are such a science denier i am the scientists are saying no you don't do it
01:27:00.840 chinese medicine trumps all the chinese medicine is such a weird thing it's like maybe this made sense
01:27:07.160 in like 1800 like an ancient chinese secret if it was good we would have been doing it a long time
01:27:11.720 correct it wouldn't have been kept a secret right here's the thing i saw an article this weekend
01:27:17.640 and i didn't even click i read the headline and all i said was no and i moved on with my life
01:27:23.720 i couldn't believe somebody actually took the time i think it was on huffpo to actually write the
01:27:28.440 article is it time we begin to eat crickets i saw that well that's no and now you had the same
01:27:35.640 response no it's not you need to read your stupid article it's not but for the past five years or so
01:27:41.400 it may be longer but for sure the past five or six years the united nations has been a strong
01:27:47.000 proponent of eating uh bugs around the world and wanting the united states to come along that road
01:27:52.760 yeah yeah i don't think so the insect insect eating because of it's a food source and uh food is so
01:28:00.760 scarce oh yeah no high in protein you can't find food in america yeah yeah there are other animals
01:28:07.640 that eat bugs man is not one of them so all right now this may sound like we're not compassionate
01:28:15.960 to those who want jade eggs and to eat crickets but that's only if you listen to bernie sanders
01:28:25.160 here's bernie sanders talking about how not compassionate americans are the united states of america
01:28:34.440 america is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care to all people as
01:28:40.360 a right dang proud of that canada does it every major country in europe i know they don't they were
01:28:45.320 first of all canada is not a major country can we get that straight well wait okay canada
01:28:52.440 i'm very upset about that however too you have to remember notice the words he uses guarantees
01:28:58.760 health care no they don't absolutely don't carry health care they guarantee you to believe you have
01:29:03.480 insurance whether you can get in care or not is a completely different issue yeah if if health
01:29:08.440 care around the world like the chinese ancient chinese secret if it was so good capitalism would
01:29:14.840 embrace it yeah the market would run towards it if it was so great we would all run towards it it's not
01:29:22.600 good here's who it's good for it's good for the very lowest of poverty levels because they get
01:29:30.440 something well we already they already got something they already could go to the hospital
01:29:35.640 now that's breaking the hospital system but let's fix that problem okay so it's good for the very we
01:29:42.680 also have medicaid by the way yes which is a giant government system specifically designed to help those
01:29:47.480 people to get insurance so there you go you already have the bottom ladder the top of the ladder they don't
01:29:53.480 care they'll get health care they'll just pay for it they'll just go out and i need to go see a doctor
01:29:59.480 okay i'll write a check so the top of the health care they don't care who does it hurt everyone in
01:30:07.640 between that's what socialized medicine does hurts everyone in between it's bad all right anyway believe that
01:30:17.560 health care is a right of all americans whether they're rich or they're poor this is why it's
01:30:24.920 important this is why it is important to understand that we are based on the declaration of independence
01:30:33.560 our rights come from our creator now how do we get a right of health care from our creator
01:30:42.920 huh we don't huh there's no way i'm trying to think of any way you could interpret anything in
01:30:52.040 nature to tell you that you have a right to health care may i also ask how it's compassionate for any
01:30:59.400 country forced to provide health care for anyone else how is that compassion it's not i've been forced i
01:31:07.880 didn't volunteer that money and it makes you less compassionate act makes you less compassionate
01:31:12.680 our nurses our nurses and doctors here in america i believe are the most compassionate
01:31:17.880 in some of them in the world they're great they're really great they're great and why because they have
01:31:23.080 a desire to do it and the things they do are remarkable remarkable and the in in at least in in our
01:31:30.680 recent experience they all did it with such professionalism and and compassion now you could go over to
01:31:36.600 the netherlands and say well the netherlands they have better health care well in some ways they might
01:31:42.120 in some ways they might but could we just look at the netherlands here for a second if you look at
01:31:48.520 sweden up until recently it was the most homogenized group of people of all time let's see they're all white
01:31:58.680 blonde hair blue eyed with the same background in culture it's not hard to move one group of people
01:32:07.720 who are all exactly alike and fit them into this little package now that they have to serve two cultures
01:32:16.440 it's completely falling apart america is the entire world coming together it doesn't work it's harder to do
01:32:25.800 things in america there is no one who is as diverse as this country is in thought and in lifestyle and
01:32:35.400 that's good why should i celebrate diversity in everything except when it really counts
01:32:44.600 celebrate diverse answers in math with common core no no
01:32:49.400 there's more should people because they are americans be able to go to the doctor when they need
01:32:57.640 to be able to go into a hospital because they are americans yes we're compassionate society no we're
01:33:03.880 not a compassionate society in terms of our relationship to poor and working people our
01:33:08.520 record is worse than virtually any other country on earth i mean should they be able to go to the
01:33:13.400 the doctors when they want to that's the exact thing social socialized medicine can't come
01:33:17.560 accomplish you die there's long if you want socialized medicine we have it are we compassionate
01:33:23.400 to our veterans no that's socialized medicine there it is that's what when they finally kill the free
01:33:32.600 market and we only have a single-payer health care system that's what it is that is the least

01:36:15.800 yeah uh and this is a big moment this is a big moment top five moment in the history of the
01:36:19.960 country yeah it's his story it's not just big it's his story this will be the biggest crowd ever
01:36:26.600 assembled on planet earth for anything for anything period yeah period period we have assembled everybody
01:36:34.040 for this all right we assembled them all in their respective places worldwide it's because it's on
01:36:38.600 the internet okay so anyway uh it's the douche hall of fame induction of well not induction the vote
01:36:44.280 to see if he will be inducted into the douche hall of fame barack obama now you might say to yourself
01:36:49.240 how the heck did barack obama get through his entire presidency without getting into the douche
01:36:53.240 hall of fame sitting president no sitting president can be inducted into the douche hall of fame we had
01:36:57.640 to wait until he's finally out of office we've been talking about this for years it's an exciting day
01:37:03.480 remember there are two things that are interesting number one you need to get 95 to get into the
01:37:07.880 douche hall of fame 95 of the vote so this is much more difficult than getting into the crappy
01:37:12.120 baseball hall of fame or whatever that's really hard actually it's very difficult to do and there
01:37:16.760 has never been anyone who has received 100 of the vote it won't happen this we've had 99 of the vote
01:37:24.680 don't know there'll be oh there'll always be somebody who's just like i'm not i'm just i want
01:37:29.160 him in the douche hall of fame but i'm not gonna let it be unanimous well there are purists like that
01:37:33.320 you'll notice there's never been a a unanimous vote for the baseball hall of fame either which there obviously
01:37:37.560 should have been now we have people who anthony wiener got 99 for example no one's ever had 100
01:37:42.840 barack obama has that chance today in one of the most momentous moments in probably our nation's
01:37:48.680 history that might be an alternate fact patentstu.com patentstu.com back in a minute
01:38:05.560 the glenn beck program mercury the glenn beck program pat is trying to figure out the catch
01:38:19.880 i really am because um i just it took you up on on your offer to go to upside down dot com and and
01:38:27.560 check it out and i haven't even coupled i haven't even paired the the flight with the hotel yet for
01:38:33.800 even extra savings uh and found a flight from from dallas to salt lake city which you have to go to
01:38:40.760 this week or somebody in your family yeah yeah uh for 480 bucks first class 480 first class how much is
01:38:47.720 it usually uh 1200 1200 holy cow that's huge yeah and you haven't coupled it with the hotel yet
01:38:55.000 haven't even done that yet when you couple it with a hotel the the interesting thing about this is you
01:38:58.840 couple it with a hotel and then they'll give you options um you know if you're willing to go
01:39:04.760 an extra 10 minutes and maybe just take an uber um because you're not staying in the hotel that
01:39:09.400 your convention's at or whatever you uh couple it with another hotel it gives you options to say you
01:39:15.480 you want to save more money the lower you drive the price which your company is going to like
01:39:20.520 the more incentive they give you by giving you money in amazon gift cards i mean this is such a
01:39:28.040 this is such an amazing thing to make to make money to save money for the company and to make money for
01:39:33.560 you it's the it's the greatest thing everybody in this scenario wins the hotel wins the airlines win
01:39:39.880 you win your company wins amazon wins how does this how is this bad i think it's
01:39:45.320 great i mean i've never i mean i it is one of those things that you sit there and you're like
01:39:49.080 what what exactly is what's happening here right it's too good right it's yeah yeah so i asked so
01:39:55.800 the guy who started this is the guy who started price line and i asked him i said okay if i'm my
01:40:04.520 listener and i know i'm gonna ask you the same thing because this is all i'm thinking and i know my
01:40:10.120 listeners have to think what's the catch here he's like no catch we use the major airlines because we
01:40:16.840 know that we're trying to appeal to business travelers so we're not going to put you on a
01:40:19.720 crappy airline so use the major airlines and great hotels and i'm like yeah right so how is it because
01:40:26.120 he started price line how is it price line to this and you are clobbering them in prices and he says it's
01:40:33.720 the combination of the two he said if you combine the hotel and the airfare both of them will give a
01:40:41.480 lower rate and um the airline isn't having to say i cut the rate x number of dollars right you know so
01:40:50.440 nobody nobody knows who's cutting the rate is it the airline or is it the is it the hotel you know what
01:40:57.800 i mean i know too they you know um business travelers love uh the air because you you get
01:41:03.000 obsessed with points when you do a lot of business travel and so everyone wants to book the travel on
01:41:07.240 their cards so they can get the points and then spend the points on their own even though it's the
01:41:11.640 company paying for all the trips but here i mean if you could start racking up 200 amazon gift cards
01:41:16.840 that's uh i think that's better than points oh it's way better than points you get actual dollars
01:41:23.240 points are fake dollars they're like they get you excited you have 975 000 points which is nine
01:41:29.960 dollars and 75 cents of actual money so i have i haven't i've never spent my points i've been a
01:41:35.880 member since like 1996 i've never spent my amex points oh my oh holy crap i can't even i don't tell
01:41:45.640 us but i can't even imagine how many points you know everything almost all the business stuff all the
01:41:50.840 business stuff when i had to when i had to buy studio stuff i just put it on the amex i mean
01:41:55.800 it was all on my personal amex you should travel free for the rest of your life no no what no no i
01:42:04.280 started spending some of it and i'm like all right well we could buy a really nice patio set and we could
01:42:11.560 go here and we could do this but it's not i mean the points are not for all of those years yeah oh my gosh
01:42:20.440 yeah it's unbelievable it's pretty amazing you've had something pretty amazing huh you've had some
01:42:24.680 stolen i don't know if you have to use them don has been using them not telling you thank you for
01:42:30.760 planting that seed what is it uh no man shall uh put asunder what was that part of the yeah because
01:42:36.920 i think i mean honestly with the just the amount of uh dollars you spent uh right putting into this
01:42:42.680 particular room we now sit in which is now all redecorated i will tell you thank you overstock.com
01:42:49.320 everything in this room with the exception of the art overstock everything wow i noticed there's
01:42:55.080 where's the plaques for the douche hall of fame there's no place for the plaque darn it no place
01:43:00.600 for the plaque huh well it's when all of this furniture came in beautiful it sat in the hallway
01:43:04.600 and everybody was every i think everybody thought i was insane they were like uh none of this works i
01:43:10.280 don't see this coming together and i'm like no no trust me it'll work well this is your game right
01:43:16.440 right i mean you know you might you might know this by listening to the show but glenn cares much
01:43:21.640 more about how the set looks than the actual show uh so uh this is your passion i would say you love
01:43:28.680 this yeah i do you do and i mean i'd love to go decorate somebody's house i was thinking that is
01:43:33.640 what you want to do so maybe we could get overstocked just to do a show where i go to some listeners house
01:43:39.240 and let me fix let me let me let me change your house i'll be great because we've done i've done
01:43:44.040 all of the sets for the blaze yeah all of the sets have been and as long as you have a blank check
01:43:49.720 uh it'd be great right that's the secret that's the key is that's the secret yeah being able to go
01:43:54.840 yeah i mean sure you get those guys you're on a two thousand dollar budget yeah you're gonna have
01:43:59.160 to get one of those guys from hgtv right but if we have an unlimited budget oh i can make your house
01:44:04.520 look sweet because that's that is exactly it all all of us would say we've imagined our entire life
01:44:11.720 playing me in the major leagues being the person who you know catches the ball in the end zone to
01:44:16.440 go to the super bowl you think i would love to go to a listener's house and decorate their family
01:44:21.720 rooms be an interior decorator that has not been a dream of mine yes oh my god yeah well it's what you
01:44:28.840 would leave and do right like if i was gonna leave this life and i could go throw knuckle balls for the
01:44:33.400 toronto blue jays i'd be thrilled with the world i can't do those things if you could leave this life
01:44:38.360 and not worry about money and not worry about doing anything and just disappear into the middle and
01:44:41.720 just be a middle america uh uh where you don't have to deal with annoying uh uh coastal uh elites
01:44:49.640 and go to middle america and decorate people's family rooms you'd be thrilled with that life
01:44:53.880 at least i mean yeah absolutely no i would be too much like frank lloyd wright i would be like you
01:44:59.320 you ever heard the story of frank lloyd wright when when he um that you you didn't tell him what
01:45:05.400 you wanted he let the earth speak to him okay so he would go on the ground and he would be like this
01:45:10.840 is what the ground is saying this building needs to be and and so he'd make beautiful places but you
01:45:16.440 know you want to sit in them or live in them it's not so easy right so this woman went to him and said
01:45:21.960 look i only i only have one request i have a lot of art and i just want space to hang my art some place
01:45:32.360 there has to be space to hang my art fine so she's not allowed to see the house until it's finished okay
01:45:41.000 frank lloyd wright fine not a good answer so she comes there is not one place no wall
01:45:50.200 wall he's built it so every single wall cannot have art on it and she's walking through and she's like
01:45:58.280 um i you know i have a lot of art he said yeah i've i fixed that for you it's over here you walk
01:46:05.560 through this area and you go into this separate like room all by itself and he's built easels in the
01:46:14.360 center and a staircase with a second floor balcony so if you want to see the art go upstairs stand on
01:46:23.400 the balcony and look down at the art crazy crazy i think i'd be too much like that oh man oh i doubt
01:46:31.640 that because that you please we look at facebook pictures of families and go oh that's a nice looking
01:46:37.000 family and you go man they could use new curtains shut up okay it's very true it's true well i don't i'm

01:49:00.760 week and of course over the past eight years uh we've been making the case strongly but we've
01:49:05.240 been making there yes we've reminded people reminded people we have more of that today on pat and stew
01:49:09.160 pat and stew.com by the way is where you can vote on the douche hall of fame induction of barack obama
01:49:14.600 very important day in our nation's history um i think an important day for world history the first
01:49:19.960 time a president's name will appear on the douche hall of fame plaque there may be no there's some
01:49:25.560 technicalities we shouldn't get into here on that particular thing but yes i mean the question is
01:49:30.840 joe biden would become eligible as well it's another uh nothing we can discuss hillary clinton is in
01:49:35.720 british hall of fame uh she was we we inducted her the day before the election just in case she just
01:49:40.920 in case she uh uh it was kind of she only got in on 96 96 of the vote we thought she might be the
01:49:50.280 first 100 vote but obviously she fell short now will barack obama get in with 100 of the vote i don't
01:49:57.320 know it's an exciting show it's an exciting do you give the stats right away oh yeah wow as they're
01:50:03.640 coming in yes or do you wait until all polls are closed we wait until the poll is closed there's
01:50:07.880 a one minute voting period all right one minute one minute so how many how many calls do you take
01:50:12.920 or how many people are oh it's on the feed how many on the feed many thousands many thousands really
01:50:18.920 for this particular vote there'll probably be millions probably millions probably the biggest vote
01:50:23.880 of all time yeah there was about 130 million votes cast in the u.s election we do expect to exceed
01:50:29.960 that right that might not be true period uh let's go to chris in alabama hello chris hi guys hi thank
01:50:37.960 you you're welcome yeah i just want to think i figured out now why my husband gave me a jade necklace for
01:50:43.160 christmas he also gave me he also gave me uh a pot of hot water and some herbs i went in the kitchen
01:50:52.040 put on my necklace and made him soup what can i say oh my god thank you chris i appreciate it
01:50:59.240 not really it's kind of icky in its context yes if you know the context and i don't think we need to
01:51:04.280 explain it here if you missed it you can go back to the third hour of the podcast today and uh
01:51:11.000 say it it uh it involves uh gwyneth paltrow and some things that she is suggesting people do now uh let
01:51:19.240 me go to kendra hello kendra you're on the glenn beck program hi glenn hi um i am a true feminist
01:51:25.960 who voted for trump and um i um was kind of irritated with the press conference because um
01:51:33.960 with the inaugural numbers because i just feel like the press is going to lie about him and he needs to
01:51:39.640 save his protestations for the big things yes yes um because he can't give them any more ammunition
01:51:48.200 they're already going to be after him and i like that he's not pc but i feel in this case he kind
01:51:54.680 of needs to show a little more restraint with some of his knee-jerk reaction what you're saying maybe
01:52:00.200 is pick your battles yes yes i have to do it as a mother all the time yes we all do we all do so
01:52:07.880 you're a feminist what did you think about the march this weekend um well i believe that those are
01:52:14.920 fake feminists um by true feminists i mean i believe in the god-given rights of all women
01:52:21.240 including the unborn one and i believe in um you know women being um held in high esteem as um
01:52:32.360 we have differences from men and that's what makes it beautiful you know we if we're equal to men then
01:52:39.560 it doesn't god made us to be different to complement each other and so that's why i call
01:52:47.080 myself a true feminist those women yesterday i i have never seen so much hate and confusion and all
01:52:54.680 the trash they left afterwards and um you know i i feel very strongly about you know why would they
01:53:04.840 march to kill babies that's essentially what they were doing and if we took all those babies
