Transcript

00:00:00.000 the blaze radio network on demand
00:00:05.840 i was going to start with saying that michael avenati is you know is is my cousin vinny but
00:00:16.480 my cousin vinny is even better than michael avenati he is the worst lawyer in in all of
00:00:24.620 the history the annals of ridiculously bad lawyers so i'm trying to figure out what national day this
00:00:33.460 should be because uh with avenati it could go either way right now it's a toss-up between the
00:00:40.140 no good very bad lawyer day or the no good very bad political operative day and a federal judge
00:00:47.160 was confused yesterday as well now in case you don't remember avenati is the guy who represents
00:00:53.980 stormy daniels in the defamation lawsuit against the president okay this is the this is the reason
00:00:59.040 why avenati this reason why we know this guy we know it because stormy daniels is his client and
00:01:06.120 says oh my gosh the president is defaming me and he didn't say you're a stripper uh i don't i don't
00:01:14.820 know we can defame strippers any more than you've defamed yourself anyway so he goes and he is the
00:01:22.900 infinite superstar lawyer he's full of awesomeness and he decided to build this case off of get this
00:01:31.300 a tweet a tweet from the president he's defaming me let me see the evidence right here it's a tweet
00:01:40.160 and he took the case trump trump tweeted back in april regarding a man allegedly sent by trump that he
00:01:49.240 had threatened her not to come forward with her story quote a sketch years later about a non-existent
00:01:56.740 man a total con job playing the fake news media for fools but they know it end quote that was the tweet
00:02:04.180 boom the hounds of hell are are unleashed in a defamation suit so yesterday we finally get to see
00:02:15.880 the case and the lawyer uh you know has to stand up avenati stands up and he tells the judge now the judge
00:02:22.660 isn't sure if this is just really bad lawyering or some kind of game of political football so the judge
00:02:29.240 opted to rule it as both the judge stated that the president's tweet was rhetorical hyperbole
00:02:37.400 protected under the first amendment and uh part of the quote politics and public discourse in the united
00:02:44.460 states so that's that's that's part of it that's part of it so you can't really get him on defamation
00:02:53.640 so forget for a moment that a federal judge has just highlighted that a defamation suit between a
00:02:59.720 sitting u.s president a porn star and a political activist masquerading as a lawyer is now considered
00:03:05.680 normal and business as usual consider for just a second that this lawyer is actually considering
00:03:12.580 running for president of the united states a man that has shown no qualms at all with parading women
00:03:19.760 first daniels and then sweat nick in front of the entire world embarrass them all for his own ugly
00:03:27.380 political greed the federal judge ordered the case closed and stormy daniels has to pay
00:03:36.300 all of the president's legal fees now this might be the funniest thing that has uh has come out of
00:03:44.260 all of it daniels has set up a crowd justice page kind of like a go fund me page back in april to pay for
00:03:51.280 all of her legal fees and as of today that page has raised five hundred and eighty six thousand dollars
00:04:00.560 so to everyone who just donated you just paid president trump's lawyers over half a million
00:04:08.640 dollars and as the kids as the kids say nowadays lol
00:04:14.380 it's tuesday october 16th this is the glenbeck program we need to have a powwow about elizabeth
00:04:25.520 uh warren too powwow chow we need to make that uh oatmeal soup that she made in powwow chow i don't
00:04:32.160 know but we should try that i hope that somebody smoke them peace pipe on this whole thing because
00:04:37.640 this is this is just outrageous don't you think yeah she released this big basically i would say
00:04:44.800 presidential audition video yesterday to show everyone that she was super native american yeah
00:04:51.640 super duper no she was uh she's cherokee she's cherokee and part delaware yes uh which is uh
00:04:58.860 is something that does not seem to be backed up by the facts now they first came out and said
00:05:04.940 well the dna test shows her to be 132nd uh cherokee and then they revised that to one
00:05:13.480 the media revised it and they actually looked at the report and it says 132nd to one 512th
00:05:19.260 then they realized oopsie doopsie we made a math error this is a serious correction they didn't say
00:05:25.060 oopsie doopsie in the correction but they they should have uh because that always makes everything
00:05:28.620 better sure um but it was between one uh one 64th and one 1024th i believe it was yeah one 1024th
00:05:38.660 now that of course in and of itself so if you cut the human body up to what 1024 pieces
00:05:45.040 that one of them one of those pieces would have a little bit of cherokee now this theoretically
00:05:51.860 right could at least give her a technical defense of her bullcrap over the past 50 years right where
00:05:58.860 she's lying and saying she's uh you know she's uh native american and she's uh getting benefits for
00:06:04.760 this and she's getting her stupid soup recipes and powwow chow which is the goal of almost everybody
00:06:10.380 powwow chow how powwow chow you want to talk about appropriating a culture powwow chow that's right
00:06:18.980 i'm going all i'm going all full i'm i'm just i'm gonna i'm just but let's all complain about the
00:06:25.160 names of football teams but let's let elizabeth warren get away with powwow chow i don't care anymore
00:06:29.680 from here on out our our audience is called our tribe and we mean it in the native american sense it's
00:06:36.740 a tribe it's a tribe well it does see i mean there are studies that show that the average person of
00:06:43.120 european descent has more native american blood in them than elizabeth warren is even showing in her
00:06:50.720 study the average person the average person because the i mean look this is not a it's a very dna is a
00:06:55.580 complicated matter and it doesn't exactly show what they try to make it out to show it doesn't show
00:07:00.320 any dna from an actual native american yeah what it shows we don't have any dna dna native american
00:07:08.360 tribes have said we're not participating in dna studies we don't want any dna studies so they've
00:07:15.100 never given any dna so we can't use actual native americans to test the dna against we have to use
00:07:23.840 people from peru mexico and columbia columbia yes well wait and they're the theory is that they
00:07:31.540 those the same people wind up migrating further south so you can use them as a stand-in right but
00:07:36.340 it does not show that she has native american blood that is not even what they tested uh and even that
00:07:41.620 is it's a weird thing dna doesn't really do that right like if you if you were born like ted cruz
00:07:47.400 right ted cruz was born in canada as many people have noticed and like to point out over the years
00:07:51.500 it would not show that he has canadian blood right like that's not the way this works it doesn't
00:07:56.660 oh well he was three miles over the border therefore he was canadian that's not what dna
00:08:00.780 does it shows a lineage again it shows it's it can be interesting in some ways to show migration
00:08:05.960 patterns and things i wonder if he would it would if his blood would show that he's a thousand times
00:08:11.900 more hispanic than uh robert francis o'rourke it's true it probably would show that yeah uh but so
00:08:20.200 it's interesting you know from that standpoint of her trying to put this issue behind her and
00:08:26.180 falling flat on her face first of all it's it does not even show the native american thing
00:08:30.720 second of all the other part which is interesting about this is they do have an idea who they believe
00:08:35.200 the native american relative was um it was uh her great great great great grandmother i think uh several
00:08:42.720 generations back and um when she registered was in the 1700s she registered as white now the theory
00:08:51.320 again as put forth by the the warren campaign and and and this is true that she would have had an
00:08:59.440 incentive at this time to identify as white instead of a native american because there's a lot of violence
00:09:04.320 against native americans at the time so if you could get out of saying you know it's like if you're in
00:09:08.240 nazi germany and you said you were not a jew right and you were able to get away with that
00:09:13.320 there'd be some serious incentives to do that number one obviously while that's true we don't
00:09:18.580 know that it's true with this person right we don't know that it was true with her great great great
00:09:22.520 great great great grandmother and secondarily yeah glenn what have we learned from progressives
00:09:28.240 we have learned that if you identify as something you are that thing this woman identified as white
00:09:35.080 and now we're denying her what she herself has identified as she said she was white and now we're
00:09:43.620 going to tell her she's not that was what i was told we were not allowed to apply to anybody no we can't
00:09:49.100 do that to her but elizabeth warren is identifying as cherokee so we have to accept that she is but we
00:09:56.420 can't accept what her great great great grandmother identified i know well it doesn't matter it doesn't
00:10:02.120 matter doesn't matter i mean really seriously this is so ridiculous this story is just so real i don't
00:10:08.100 really care i don't care either but i don't care that she's lying and the people should how do you
00:10:12.040 know she's lying let me just play look i want a cigar store indian with elizabeth warren's face
00:10:18.120 more than anybody else on the planet so don't get me are they selling those yet those gotta be no but
00:10:22.520 we've got to start making them uh i want one more than life itself okay so you know where i'm coming
00:10:29.500 from however you know we all have things i have a story in my family okay of uh one of my great
00:10:37.760 great great grandfathers now my my grandfather actually took a horse a big a full-sized horse
00:10:45.760 he was a he was kind of a vet and he took him and he grabbed him underneath the chin he didn't have
00:10:52.440 anything to put this horse down didn't have a gun or anything else but and he took him and he punched
00:10:57.380 him in the head and knocked the horse out okay so my family my on my mother's side they're big people
00:11:05.620 uh and they they they they had muscles in them that i don't have okay now the legend in the family
00:11:14.100 is that my great great great great grandfather uh was this guy i don't know why they always involve
00:11:21.360 horses but one of the neighbor's horses kept uh jumping over and getting into his garden or
00:11:29.840 whatever i don't even know what it is and he picked it up and threw it over the fence i don't know if
00:11:37.500 that's true i'm gonna go out and say it's not my family you don't know so it could be true it might
00:11:43.820 not be true who cares that's what i grew up hearing same thing with her she might have grown
00:11:49.800 up hearing oh yeah this is what it was but it was it was it was not true how many advantages through
00:11:54.920 your life did you get because you had people in your family who threw horses over over walls i was
00:12:00.060 i almost made it into wwe but how many times have you told that story you've been on the air for how
00:12:05.720 many years never never i've never told you you've you've yeah yeah yeah i get it i get it again it's
00:12:10.800 she is trying to play identity politics and if you're going to play identity politics you better
00:12:15.720 be right on these things and that's why i think it is okay i'll give you that it's valid it's valid
00:12:19.880 i'll give you that it's not a huge story i mean you know we well you know what is a huge part of this
00:12:24.860 story is the cherokee nation came out yesterday yes and said quote a dna test is useless to determine
00:12:33.380 tribal citizenship current dna tests do not even distinguish whether a person's ancestors were
00:12:38.940 indigenous to north or south america sovereign tribal nations set their own legal requirements
00:12:43.960 for citizenship and while dna tests can be used to determine lineage such as paternally to an
00:12:49.960 individual it is not evidence for tribal affiliation using a dna test to claim any connection to a
00:12:57.400 cherokee nation or any tribal nation even vaguely is inappropriate and wrong it makes a mockery out of
00:13:07.300 dna test and its legitimate uses while dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens
00:13:13.740 whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven senator warren is undermining
00:13:20.640 tribal interest with her continued claims of tribal heritage okay look it's not a good look yeah
00:13:27.700 they're they're not uh they're not offering the peace pipe here to her uh she should probably zip it
00:13:33.960 and it does this not glenn this whole saga of the last two days with this as you point out ridiculous
00:13:38.900 story does this not prove uh serve as a gigantic warning sign to democrats to not nominate her this is
00:13:48.300 a no no no no no i look i want no no no no this is this is a sign this is she's she should be your
00:13:54.480 candidate i really hate her she's great she's great she's great she'll get the the minority vote
00:14:01.720 she'll get the native american vote oh yeah and uh huge huge wow anybody who is one 1026th of
00:14:12.240 anything is going to be voting for her i'm afraid of her she should run she should be the nominee
00:14:16.960 were we convincing because i think and i'll and avanati should be either her spokesperson or vp or both
00:14:25.160 or both that's a scary ticket warren avanati i think they should do it i think they should
00:14:32.380 should have a powwow about it they should get together all right filter by stew i brought this
00:14:38.000 in i changed my filters because i got my filter by in oh okay they arrived yes okay remember i said
00:14:43.540 i don't even know where my filter is well i found it okay i found it
00:14:47.360 that started as white that's very dirty that's yeah i i went upstairs and i said see the white in
00:14:58.820 there i mean i have the i should have brought the other filter in that i had that i replaced it with
00:15:03.560 but but see how it started as white yeah it's it's dark charcoal gray now it's bad i pulled that out and i
00:15:10.620 was ashamed to say you know the truth so i said honey why have you not told me that we needed to
00:15:18.260 change the filter before now look at what we've been breathing you're just a bad person yeah that's
00:15:24.340 a good way to go that's a good direction she just looked at it she's when i pulled that out she just
00:15:28.300 looked at me and just shook her head like you're pathetic anyway now i'm not pathetic because the
00:15:33.220 filter by filter by.com they're going to send it to you they'll send i don't have to worry about it
00:15:37.640 again because another one's going to come to my door and when the other one comes to my door i
00:15:40.540 pull it out and i just push this one in it's really simple filter by.com made here in america
00:15:46.420 you get five percent off if you um uh you know if you sign up like i did that you just have them
00:15:52.420 recurring filter by.com make it really simple for yourself it is filter by.com
00:15:58.840 you know here's a here's a problem with elizabeth warren for the democrats um people are sick of this
00:16:08.620 now the you know the the the left is not sick of this but i think the average democrat is just as
00:16:13.800 sick of this as as the uh the republican and independent is i mean you know it starts with
00:16:19.820 shout your abortion shout your abortion nobody wants to shout their abortion nobody thinks that's a good
00:16:25.580 idea except for the extremist and the and the revolutionaries and the marxists and you know the
00:16:31.860 the post-modernists everybody else is like don't shout your abortion that's not something to be proud
00:16:37.400 of so you have this you have antifa you have you know hating cops hating whites hating men hating
00:16:46.980 capitalism shutting down a free speech hate god people aren't people are not into you know oh in third
00:16:55.760 grade there's a transition party because all genders are fluid they're not into that and they've had
00:17:01.280 enough of it and with elizabeth warren doing this whole i'm native america nobody cares nobody cares
00:17:09.620 if she is nobody cares if she isn't i mean what difference does it make and so by playing into it
00:17:18.640 she's just making it about identity politics more and more and nobody cares people are done with
00:17:24.820 identity politics i'm telling you they're done with it and the the the first candidate and well we
00:17:30.760 already know the first candidate was donald trump that said i don't care i don't care i don't care
00:17:35.920 i don't care what you say about me i don't care what you accuse me of i don't care that's why he won
00:17:43.120 because he that's why 20 percent of the people who voted for donald trump and you'll never hear this
00:17:49.280 from mainstream media because they don't they don't the democrats don't want this known 20 percent of
00:17:56.720 the people who voted for donald trump voted for barack obama at least once many twice so they came
00:18:05.940 over from the democratic side they're sick of it they're sick of it now they may not like his extreme
00:18:13.880 tweets and everything else but they definitely don't like the idea that yeah we're going to get rid of
00:18:19.620 capitalism because it's an old outdated idea yeah you know we think we should shut down free speech oh i
00:18:25.820 hate those cops they're all murderers men boy men are trouble especially white men did you know that
00:18:32.340 i'm indian and that's really great i shouldn't have said indian it really should be native american
00:18:37.480 because indian shut up nobody cares with all of the stuff that is going on in the world shut up
00:18:45.480 the issue here is you don't win that 2020 primary with 20 or 30 candidates in it without appealing to
00:18:53.740 those activists who do believe all that craziness so and they're they're so they're stuck they're
00:18:58.380 hardcore incentivized to win those people over early which is why they're all coming out and you know
00:19:04.140 it's why the spartacus moment happened it's why kamala harris was so crazy during the kavanaugh thing
00:19:09.020 it's why avenatti's on tv with you know with the crazier crazier stunt every day but you know stew how do
00:19:14.480 you see what used to happen is you'd have to you'd have to go over to the extreme and then you'd moderate
00:19:20.180 you're not going to be able to moderate with those people how do you moderate how do you go over to
00:19:25.580 the side of antifa and say hey i don't think anything is wrong with antifa and shout your
00:19:30.640 abortion and then when you get the nomination come back close enough to the center to where people are
00:19:36.860 going oh she didn't really mean the shout the abortion thing oh she didn't really mean antifa
00:19:42.000 because antifa and the shout your abortion people are not going to let you get away with it
00:19:46.060 you're you've been eaten you've been eaten by the hard left and democrats are waking up to it
00:19:55.620 they don't like what's happening on campuses they don't like what's happening in the news
00:19:59.180 they may not like what's happening in the white house either but they're not about shouting their
00:20:04.780 abortion this is the glenn beck program will stanford welcome to the program glad you're here

00:20:18.280 so uh will thank you for having me on you're welcome uh welcome to the program what's on your
00:20:25.440 mind well um you know i had uh written you an email and wanted to say thank you very much for being an
00:20:33.780 inspiration um you know i followed politics since i was 11 years old and i see you as one of the
00:20:39.800 the great minds in political commentary today and um recently i i saw an interview between you and ben
00:20:48.560 shapiro yeah um and you came out and spoke about your past with alcohol and uh how that you had
00:20:56.700 entered aa and it helped you and uh struggling with alcohol myself um and even being drunk when i
00:21:04.320 watched that video um you know i i stopped and i went you know this this man with all the stress
00:21:10.640 that he goes through uh he's he's managed to overcome this problem and become a better person
00:21:16.500 and really i've seen a good change in your personality um you've become much more humble
00:21:20.820 and so because of your inspiration i decided to step out and go to aa myself and uh it's been a huge
00:21:29.900 help good for you when did you go to aa when did you just start uh about three weeks ago and you're
00:21:38.100 still so and you're still sober oh absolutely yes i'm having a great time at that yeah really that
00:21:45.600 wasn't my experience but good for you good for you so uh so uh what was it that was said in that that
00:21:53.840 that turned you uh you know it was um you're talking about the it was funny you know of course
00:22:02.920 it was it was really impacting to to hear you be so honest i mean it's got to be tough uh being in
00:22:09.200 the public eye to come out with something so personal and that that really hit me like a ton
00:22:13.460 of bricks and um and then you were talking about the uh the the lady in your in your group that said oh
00:22:20.820 honey we're all drunks in this room and uh i you know i'd always seen aa meetings as probably
00:22:28.160 something lame or or people that wouldn't understand me or anything like that and that
00:22:33.320 was the one moment that really turned my attitude and made me go well i can walk in the door and i
00:22:38.220 can do this and i'll be in good company and i i found that to be true well i tell you well um
00:22:44.340 every aa meeting is different it just depends on where you are and if you don't find one that you
00:22:49.120 relate to go find another one uh because they are wildly wildly different uh you've walked into a
00:22:55.540 a meeting in midtown manhattan and uh you know i had a hard time relating to people because they
00:23:02.180 literally were in the the gutter and just coming out and i never experienced that and so it was it
00:23:08.300 was different for me um but you'll you'll find the people you relate to i'm so happy for you
00:23:13.880 did did people in your life know that you were having a problem will uh yes you know my my problems
00:23:20.760 have been um pretty obvious for a long time i've struggled with alcohol for uh almost 20 years
00:23:27.440 and uh i first i first got drunk when i was 15 i've always struggled from self-confidence issues
00:23:33.640 which is kind of the undercurrent that uh hasn't helped me and um when i was around 19 i was in a
00:23:40.840 terrible relationship and had a bad breakup and and got into alcohol to kind of cope with it and
00:23:46.580 try and get over it and get over the emotions and um i made a terrible drunk decision and kind of
00:23:53.560 in retaliation i i committed a crime and um my parents helped me through that time got me counseling
00:24:01.200 got me things that i needed but um with the self-confidence issues i had a lot of self-hatred
00:24:08.000 that came from committing that crime and uh coming out of that i was drunk uh every day for about
00:24:14.480 seven years you know and i i held my life together i i would sober up to go to work i would come home and
00:24:21.120 just get tanked and start all over again yes and then um back in um it was 2008 i had a terrible accident
00:24:30.140 and i was drunk again uh messing around with fireworks uh from wyoming and lost uh 50 of my
00:24:38.280 left hand oh my gosh and that didn't get you to sober up i i sobered up for four years and i got married
00:24:47.600 uh took on three step kids and walked into a different life rebuilt my relationship with god
00:24:55.480 and uh i came to a point of stress as comes in marriage and um fell off the wagon and it was
00:25:04.120 really because i had forgotten god that i didn't keep my eyes on the future and what was good and uh
00:25:11.000 i've i've kind of bobbed in and out of alcohol problems and and thank god for my wife she's been
00:25:15.700 so patient i i don't deserve this woman she's wonderful um and so you know i i sobered up for a
00:25:23.980 while probably a year and a half um and over this past summer i walked away from the family company
00:25:30.260 and got into a job that i thought i wanted and those people at that job just ate me alive you know
00:25:36.880 and that really hit my self-confidence bad and so i was drunk for six months you know again i was
00:25:42.880 working uh staying sober just enough to work and then i come home and get drunk i was isolating
00:25:48.380 myself from my family in my office sleeping in my office and it uh really hampered my relationship
00:25:54.780 with my wife and my kids and uh you know so by the time i saw this interview between you and ben
00:26:01.500 um i was at my own rock bottom you know i was a wreck but i was keeping my life together
00:26:07.600 and i was very honest with my wife about my problems with uh my parents you know and recently i've
00:26:15.120 you know stepped back into the family company and when i take it over i know that that life is for
00:26:20.580 me and um you know i'm i've like i said i've followed politics since i was a kid and really one of my aims
00:26:28.460 is i'd like to write a book and uh despite my past which i might get eaten alive for i'd like to enter
00:26:35.780 the political realm and kind of get on board with you and and other people in political commentary
00:26:42.060 and use my experiences to inspire people as well well that is a uh a great goal and uh i'm so glad
00:26:51.260 to hear that you said that um you know that god is a part of your life because i would not have made
00:26:56.860 it without my faith um and my and my wife so uh would you do me a favor listen to uh i want you to
00:27:04.440 listen to a couple things um there there was a interview that i did a couple of weeks ago
00:27:09.640 stew stew stew it's his name he's the pastor uh he was wrongly accused went to jail um mcguire um
00:27:18.760 gene mcguire um go to my podcast and listen to gene mcguire he was wrongly accused spent 34 years
00:27:27.040 in jail in prison um and uh his attitude uh and his story of redemption and also uh sobriety is
00:27:37.760 remarkable um and then also you might find it useful i did an interview with lewis hows uh from
00:27:45.820 the school of greatness a few weeks ago uh and that kind of goes into things a little more i was
00:27:52.760 operating on about three hours sleep when i did that interview and i listened to it and i went oh
00:27:57.860 dear god what am i doing uh so there's it's very frank on that one uh you might want to uh you might
00:28:06.260 want to listen to those do me in one more favor you have your wife call me if uh you fall off the
00:28:13.200 wagon just to just for a little just because when we can we can we can chat on the air and then you
00:28:18.420 know maybe that'll provide a little incentive for you for you not to know my wife my wife told me if
00:28:24.020 i ever drink she'll leave me and i believe her uh and that that does cross my mind i believe even if
00:28:29.680 you don't start drinking she may yeah yeah she's she's probably getting up to the point now where she's
00:28:33.980 like i'm gonna start drinking or i'm gonna leave you uh but uh but best of luck to you will when
00:28:40.320 you least expect it expect it uh if you just remember that that your mind will knows you better
00:28:48.360 than than you think and it will play all kinds of games with you you will make it when you least
00:28:54.860 expect it expect it i've made a book uh out to you and we're going to put it into uh into the mail
00:29:00.160 for you thank you so much great thank you glenn appreciate it i you know i want to spend some time
00:29:07.120 maybe on tomorrow's show i want to spend some time about this i'm getting so much
00:29:12.000 mail now on people who are trying to go through recovery but more importantly i'm getting a lot of
00:29:20.440 mail about depression and um uh and suicide yeah and i don't know why this is happening but suicide
00:29:29.900 is a huge spike and i don't think people understand it uh and i want to share some of the things that i
00:29:36.740 have seen in the uh mail and some of the things that i've heard i don't know if you saw a star is
00:29:42.200 born i have not no it's bradley cooper and lady gaga yeah it's supposed to be an oscar contender
00:29:48.480 oh i think they're both going to win oscars i mean they should it's it's it's fantastic um but it is
00:29:55.220 um i don't want to i don't want to wreck anything but uh it um it deals with alcoholism uh and and
00:30:04.540 suicide and it's uh it's very powerful in its portrayal of that and um i don't know suicide is
00:30:14.260 in our is in the zeitgeist right now um and uh so we'll we'll talk about it possibly tomorrow
00:30:22.040 you mentioned you signed a book uh for uh for him and the book of course addicted to outrage which we
00:30:27.420 talked about about 25 zillion times in the past couple months you may know that it is available
00:30:32.140 in bookstores however one thing we don't mention often is the subtitle and you know it's about how
00:30:39.320 treating the country right and admitting that we have a problem not like us but like the country
00:30:46.600 as as a whole as a whole has an issue with the way they're dealing with problems um and if you if
00:30:52.380 you look at that because it's about what's i don't have it in front of me it's uh yeah it's uh uh how
00:30:57.060 thinking like a recovering addict can help you heal the country yeah i mean it's it's it's those
00:31:01.280 principles that are helping him get through that alcoholism right a lot of those same principles
00:31:06.420 would work on our country no they definitely would and that's you know you get into some of
00:31:12.720 the addiction issues in the book but also how that applies to everything we have to deal with
00:31:17.680 on a daily basis you know with a cure for michael avenatti like this is that's what's the book is
00:31:23.220 about right it's about being able to apply those principles to other situations it starts at the and
00:31:31.700 it starts at the beginning it's not just admitting you have a problem that we all have a problem that
00:31:35.520 the nation has a problem and i think we can all admit that um but it really it really it it's i think
00:31:44.480 there's a section in here that in the book that really came before as an alcoholic i had to decide
00:31:50.480 is life worth living and in the book there's a chapter of are we good or are we bad is this republic
00:31:59.280 is the american experiment worth saving and we're not talking about that we're seeing people tear it
00:32:08.020 down but nobody who's talking about is it worth saving so how do we answer that question
00:32:15.300 and the book goes through that and i i think the road to recovery of of our ills in this nation
00:32:25.140 start there you know you can say hillary clinton can say well i can't compromise with people you
00:32:32.280 know i can't even talk to those people because they want to destroy everything i believe in
00:32:35.880 well what is it you believe in and and really believe in don't tell me the trite little things
00:32:42.240 tell me about america tell me who you are now she can't do that because i don't i i just don't think
00:32:48.680 that she's uh she's honest enough to tell me she's she's a politician she's calculating and and so are
00:32:57.380 most politicians right and left it's up to us we have to say that to our neighbors that we think we
00:33:03.540 disagree with can we just can we not talk about politics for a second is america worth saving is it
00:33:09.880 a good place or a bad place and the book shows you how to have that conversation and gives you some
00:33:16.520 some facts both on good and bad because both sides have to have to step to the plate both sides
00:33:23.540 republicans generally see rah rah all of the good things red white and blue and we're patriotic as we
00:33:30.440 believe and we don't want to hear the bad things because usually the bad things are being told to us
00:33:36.320 by people who hate the country we have to go out and learn the bad things about the country and those
00:33:44.100 people who just know the bad things about the country have to go and honestly look for the good
00:33:48.560 things because i don't know about you but i'm both good and bad and my struggle every day is to be more
00:33:57.240 good than bad to be a little better than i was yesterday and if i let myself go i'll be a bad guy
00:34:03.800 well we've let ourselves go we're not trying to balance that anymore we're saying we want to save
00:34:12.000 this well why why what's worth saving what is it what are we saving and can you save quote the free
00:34:20.820 market system by violating the free market system the answer to that is no so what is it we're saving
00:34:30.780 and is it worth saving and once we decide on that we'll know the path forward
00:34:35.420 want to thank our sponsor this half hour it's x chair just bought uh new chairs for the studio

00:36:48.080 get his take on that and harvard and racial balancing i think they're about to lose this
00:36:55.780 back mercury glenn beck is coming live to talk about the right path forward and to make fun of
00:37:03.580 the people standing in the way he might not be able to save the country but at least we can all go down
00:37:07.980 laughing glenn beck live the addicted to outrage tour on tour this fall glenn beck
00:37:16.280 a little election by the numbers so let's start with the senate uh glenn and right now uh it is
00:37:26.420 looking very good for uh republicans uh to control the senate and potentially even expand their majority
00:37:33.440 in fact the chances are pretty good that they're going to be able to do that um let me give you the
00:37:37.480 we have a little uh graphic here you can kind of set up here and we'll see we'll let everyone on
00:37:41.540 the radio know as well there are 46 seats that are pretty much assured for republicans right now
00:37:47.080 um if you kind of use the solid republicans seats you're up to about 47 and then there's three seats
00:37:53.700 that are leaning republican right now there's texas uh tennessee and north dakota all three of those are
00:37:58.920 leaning to the republican side all they have to do is win the leaning states and they're to 50 which gets
00:38:03.560 them control of the senate for at least a couple of years um there are six races in the toss-up category
00:38:09.300 and each one of those is going to expand that majority if they can do that so i mean like arizona
00:38:14.960 seems to be going in the right direction right now there's a couple like florida and nevada which
00:38:18.200 are really close easily you know total toss-up races these are very close right now but you could
00:38:23.360 easily see a scenario where republicans can get to 53 or 54 seats it all comes down to
00:38:28.620 this question in my mind do you want to shout your abortion or not do you want to shout your
00:38:35.800 abortion i'd rather do you do you believe that it is a healthy direction for the country to be
00:38:43.380 to have representatives and senators who stand right next to people who say shout your abortion
00:38:50.580 be proud of your abortion no no no no what happened is safe and rare what happened oh that's dead
00:38:57.180 the rare part of it is dead yeah the rare part is dead shout your abortion be proud of it let's
00:39:02.360 make a comedy of it and i got news for you by the way all abortions are not safe in fact they are
00:39:06.720 100 effective at killing something yes uh so it never was safe uh it is currently legal uh but they
00:39:13.480 don't care about rare anymore that one has gone out the window and it's not just that it's extremist
00:39:17.620 on all fronts if you if you look at what's happening in portland and you think this i you know i want
00:39:23.420 more of that well you know who to vote for that's it it's yeah if you want i mean look at all the
00:39:31.120 things we've seen over the past few years i mean from everything occupying wall street occupied
00:39:35.280 scott walker's state house occupying uh the the keystone pipeline fbi buildings in portland
00:39:42.320 you want that to continue there's a way to get it there's a way to get it in fact turn the volume up
00:39:47.340 uh spartacus and his friends will do it all right we uh we wanted to bring gavin mcginnis in
00:39:52.620 uh gavin uh is a crtv host get off my lawn which is i think my favorite name of any show
00:40:00.520 uh and uh he's in trouble now because uh the press has decided he's he's very very violent he's a
00:40:08.300 canadian writer actor and comedian he is the co-founder of vice media and vice magazine
00:40:13.120 uh and now on crtv and we welcome him to the program gavin i really appreciate you coming on
00:40:19.440 oh i'm i'm really happy to be here it's one of the few places telling the right stories
00:40:24.100 well um i i will tell you this i i mean um your tribe believes in take them on and i and and that's
00:40:34.240 totally fine my tribe reluctantly is more of the you know stand with uh peace and more of
00:40:43.040 martin luther king you're kind of malcolm x i want us to be able to understand each other and live
00:40:49.300 with one another because you're not the enemy uh and and what what you guys are doing i totally and
00:40:57.780 completely understand you've had enough and you want to stand up and say because nobody else is
00:41:05.060 am i right is that what what's happening yeah well look at those two those two versions uh wouldn't
00:41:11.940 have been that different on friday night the the guys who were looking for a fight they got in some
00:41:17.900 extra kicks right and so that's maybe five seconds of violence that wouldn't have happened if it went
00:41:24.460 your way that's five seconds out of three days of terror uh antifa was was threatening the venue
00:41:31.840 they were giving death threats to this old lady who answered the phone there okay hang on hang on
00:41:36.580 hang on start let's go back to what you were doing what the venue is what and you have to hit on the
00:41:43.480 poster because uh i i think the poster is uh just uh entertaining but go ahead well i otoya yamaguchi
00:41:52.480 killed the socialist with a samurai sword in 1960 and it's a funny troll that a lot of right-wing guys do
00:41:58.840 it's sort of like the pinochet thing free rides free helicopter rides for commies really satire right
00:42:05.580 right so it's it's that kind of setup i announced it on tuesdays call myself otoya yamaguchi and i
00:42:11.740 photoshopped myself into his mugshot um the second we announced that and anyone who knows me too knows
00:42:19.120 that it's satire antifa goes full blast they start attacking the venue attacking the old lady there
00:42:24.900 the calls are coming from all over the country by the way so this is a planned attack that antifa has
00:42:30.820 worked i think dnc and antifa working in a hand because this was well organized and well
00:42:35.420 funded so then that those attacks continue night before the venue totally trashed window smashed
00:42:41.520 big ridiculous pretentious manifesto nailed to the door that says that we put the republicans on notice
00:42:47.840 uh this is only the beginning we are not civil which by the way is a hillary quote
00:42:52.760 uh then i get to the venue that night sorry the next night total and utter chaos beautifully made
00:43:00.340 sign screaming hurling bottles of urine which one of them hit my car on the way out uh organized
00:43:07.240 rallies like there's this guy in a mets hat you'll see if you really get deep into the the foxhole
00:43:13.220 where he's calling antifa and saying you know you guys go over there over there a citizen journalist
00:43:17.720 gets beat up they take his backpack the police arrest him and then uh wait they they arrest the
00:43:24.220 citizen journalist yeah no no sorry they arrest three of the of the 10 who mobbed this guy okay
00:43:30.300 but i had i interviewed him today and he was talking about coordinated attacks it seemed very military
00:43:36.300 so this isn't anarchy these anarchists are pulling off well you you know i i don't know if i'm sure you
00:43:42.840 are um antifa austin is uh on their facebook page has called for guerrilla style tactics they they've called
00:43:53.280 for a what do they call it a black shirt army or something a red a red shirt army i can't remember
00:43:59.860 um but they're calling for people that just want to go out and do what antifa normally does but they're
00:44:07.700 also calling now for a an actual standing army and they were looking for people that know military
00:44:14.680 tactics that could teach people so that's that's happening and of course facebook doesn't have a
00:44:19.180 problem with with covering that but well that must be the mets hat guy the police are looking for that
00:44:24.620 my citizen journalist told me about um so yeah that's those guys were charged with assault and
00:44:30.160 robbery because they took his backpack so now you and i by the way peaceful uh martin lucikin guy
00:44:35.320 are still having the same experience right up till now and it's been days and then it's time to leave
00:44:40.880 i come out there i've got my plastic sword i make a toy yamaguchi joke and they that's when they
00:44:47.020 hurl the urine at me i jump in the car and then uh this group of proud boys are are the last ones to
00:44:53.640 go they they leave and the video just came out yesterday i'm breaking 9-1-1 on twitter they are
00:44:59.860 attacked by antifa fully clad with all their gear and they throw a bottle at them and a huge fight
00:45:05.420 breaks out and now in your world that fight would have been you know hey cops cops or something like
00:45:11.520 that in the malcolm x world it's a little bit longer but again five to ten seconds difference so
00:45:16.440 we're splitting hairs here yeah the real issue is we are up against homicidal lunatics with no
00:45:23.840 agenda no plan it's not like they know where we're going to get you know our our gas and oil from
00:45:29.340 after the revolution these guys just want to burn america to the ground and the media is on their
00:45:35.080 side yeah i know so it's so frustrating because um we had the same kind of thing happening out in
00:45:41.640 in portland oregon and uh you know portland has i don't know who this mayor is what i mean
00:45:49.500 what the hell is he doing where they're already directing traffic antifa the police are standing
00:45:56.380 a block away and then they do nothing well my understanding with these super left-wing towns
00:46:02.140 like berkeley and portland is the mayor allows antifa to wreak chaos and then he can say sorry trump
00:46:09.200 supporters are trouble i mean look at all the chaos that happens when somebody likes trump shows up when
00:46:14.180 when republics and conservatives are around so let's just you know if you don't want antifa around
00:46:19.680 stop being fa that's their sort of motto and it works it's interesting gavin because because the initial
00:46:26.540 video seemed to indicate that your guys were in the wrong that they had they started this and and they
00:46:33.400 started the violence the second video that was released however shows clearly someone from antifa
00:46:38.340 throwing something uh at uh at uh the proud boys and and and that's when the fight breaks out it was
00:46:45.940 not something that you guys at least the main one that has been covered it was not something that you
00:46:50.060 guys instigated isn't it strange how quick the media is to run with the evil nazi narrative without
00:46:57.060 doing any research whatsoever and isn't it strange too how the media takes a five second clip and makes
00:47:03.260 that the total story when we have days and days and days of subterfuge days and days of domestic
00:47:11.000 violence it's almost like i'm at the point now i think they don't just like antifa they are antifa
00:47:17.220 i think a lot of these journalists these little huffpo bloggers will go to rallies with masks on i'm
00:47:22.740 convinced i will tell you i i uh i'm having a very hard time defending uh the press which i have
00:47:31.820 tried to be more moderating uh on my on my words with the press but the the deeper we get into
00:47:40.520 the violence on the streets and the calls for kick them when they're down and all of this stuff
00:47:45.780 uh there's no excuse when when when the when they will not call a mob a mob an angry mob when
00:47:55.940 everybody knows what that means i i don't know what i i don't know what to say i mean how you and i
00:48:02.820 you and i can't go to restaurants tucker carlson just today said he can't go to restaurants so no
00:48:07.600 known conservative can go to a restaurant today that's a new one and it's because the the media will
00:48:13.440 throw around white supremacist like it it means absolutely nothing a white supremacist is someone
00:48:19.200 who sees white people as above all other races just inherently better and wants all the other races
00:48:24.600 out of america that is a remarkably esoteric view to have it's it's a crazy view to have and they just
00:48:32.220 throw it on us and it sticks like glue and it affects our families affects our lives affects our
00:48:37.500 personal lives there's got to be some culpability there okay so gavin hold on for a second i want to
00:48:43.260 i want to take you over across the break and and just ask you what it is you believe what is the
00:48:49.880 america that you see and that you're fighting for back with gavin mcginnis coming up in just a second
00:48:58.020 let me tell you a little bit about gold line if you think this stuff is going away quickly it's not
00:49:04.780 uh if the republicans lose one or both houses of congress we are in we're in for a real wild ride
00:49:12.380 um they are going to subpoena the tax records and when they don't get the tax records from the
00:49:18.480 white house the white house will bring it to the supreme court and then the uh democrats will say the
00:49:25.260 supreme court doesn't have you know doesn't have a right to do this because of of uh kavanaugh on and
00:49:31.760 kavanaugh needs to recuse himself and he's not going to recuse himself then they're going to try to
00:49:36.400 impeach kavanaugh and then they'll impeach donald trump i mean it's this is what's happening
00:49:41.000 this is what's happening these people are playing for keeps and they are not paying attention to
00:49:47.600 things like oh i don't know the economy is it has any really heard you know i see the tweets from
00:49:52.760 donald trump all the time i see all the stuff they're saying about donald trump has anybody really
00:49:57.280 heard what's going on with the stock market does anybody really paying attention to what's happening
00:50:03.160 with saudi arabia that's a pretty big deal especially when you look at the price of oil
00:50:08.420 uh anybody paying attention to that nope not in the media gold line has put together a um a report
00:50:16.500 for you on all of the scenarios that could happen if they take one or both of the houses and they're
00:50:21.220 they're pretty you need to be aware of them uh because things can change quickly i buy gold and
00:50:28.300 silver as an insurance against chaos i and i we're becoming more and more chaotic get your copy of
00:50:35.280 this report now what is coming next due to this election 866 gold line 1-866 gold line inform yourself
00:50:44.420 now 1-866 gold line or goldline.com
00:50:48.180 we're with uh gavin mcginnis who is uh the host of get off my lawn on crtv uh he is the writer actor
00:51:01.620 comedian he is the founder co-founder of vice media and vice magazine uh and uh also the leader of the
00:51:08.980 proud boys uh which the media is saying um you know they're they're violent uh and racist activists
00:51:16.740 so tell me who you really are gavin tell me what you're really fighting for what is your vision of
00:51:23.220 america well first of all i'm not the leader of the proud boys i just started it they they grew
00:51:29.100 organically i just happened to be there and they grew organically as someone who wanted to stand
00:51:34.000 up to the violence of antifa who were pepper spraying and coulter and lawrence southern and
00:51:39.600 me and all these other people who just wanted to go do a talk and they haven't stopped with this
00:51:44.520 violence and inevitably when you're that violent i mean if you had a group slashing tires you're going
00:51:49.060 to have the tire boys at some point right so so this group would not exist if antifa wasn't trying
00:51:56.220 to shout people down and trying to um uh take them out i don't think so i think you just they just be
00:52:04.540 at a bar like the elks launch they wouldn't be coming out to defend people but more importantly the
00:52:09.040 way i feel personally is america is the greatest country on earth because it's not about identity
00:52:15.620 politics because it's not about your accent like it is in britain or or where you come from it's about
00:52:22.240 meritocracy you come here you bust your ass you at least appreciate judeo-christian values you can be
00:52:27.860 an atheist but you have to understand that that is the backbone of the country and as long as you
00:52:32.540 you're part of us you're in we don't care if you're from uganda singapore you bust your ass
00:52:38.280 you're into american values you're in and there's not a lot of places like that in the world it's it's
00:52:43.940 very rare to have that total lack of classism and that admiration for independence and liberty and hard
00:52:49.940 work and we got there through a horrible list of ups and downs and and rights and wrongs and trying to
00:52:56.460 correct things we had slavery our treatment of the indians was not uh it was not what you'd expect
00:53:01.580 for someone to whom the sermon on the mount mount was divine command as you can and says but we've we
00:53:07.360 we got here all together through all this mess and all this suffering and here we are in the freest
00:53:12.500 country of the world and we get people complaining saying america was never great
00:53:17.280 and and that's what pisses me off and it's ironic that we we get called white supremacists because
00:53:23.440 the reason we love america is it doesn't bother with all of that crap
00:53:27.120 gavin we had this for a long time i think the media basically just said antifa was they didn't exist
00:53:33.480 they ignored them completely and as the violence has escalated their new tactic seems to be well yes
00:53:40.100 there's violence but it's it's the proud boys fault or it's it's the right wing's fault have you noticed
00:53:45.600 or they're just exercising my favorite is they're just exercising their first amendment right of uh
00:53:51.600 assembly and petition of course of course i'm curious gavin if you detected a difference recently
00:53:56.080 um in the approach from the media as is trying to make your group the real uh villain the real
00:54:04.480 villain in this because i mean i i they were you know there was a tweet a tweet string going on about
00:54:09.480 the alleged violence by proud boys members and it was retweeted by people like maggie haberman like the
00:54:15.040 big time reporters were going after this you've become i think a central target in this is that do
00:54:20.420 you feel that definitely i think the the dnc put their uh hate is not hate has no home here that's
00:54:27.860 the only thing they have to say to america and it's an idiotic thing to say that's like saying
00:54:32.460 we we are sick of albino violence like they just chose this really weird concept these evil nazis
00:54:39.960 and they said we're going to rid america of the clan and nazis now there are none so they go uh-oh
00:54:46.120 uh we got to expand the net here so now anyone who disagrees with them is part of this evil hate they
00:54:52.120 have to stop and i unfortunately have fallen into that that definition and it's it's it's amazing that
00:55:00.800 antifa and the media and the dnc are all in cahoots like cuomo was saying hate is is like a match and you put
00:55:08.760 it on dry dry grass and then the wind just takes it i think the match is antifa the wind is the media
00:55:15.140 and the dnc are starting fires i don't i i i have to tell you i have a hard time disagreeing with that
00:55:23.560 um seeing the way the uh the left has just consumed the dnc i mean there there's you know when you when
00:55:32.500 you're into a an organization where you're starting to say you know shout your abortion and um and and
00:55:40.040 that kind of really despicable kind of uh uh behavior you're bound and determined to start just going
00:55:48.520 way off the rails and they're they are they're they're the extremist party now and it's it's all
00:55:56.240 getting so gray i mean they used to and it's the same as in britain by the way the way that
00:56:01.160 the dnc uses antifa as their paramilitary paramilitary wing here uh the media uses the
00:56:08.000 jihadists over there and and the attitude in both cases is the enemy of my enemy is my friend
00:56:12.820 and antifa's language and the dnc language getting more and more similar just like that note it said we
00:56:18.380 are not civil that's what hillary said when we go low uh when they go low we kick them or maxine
00:56:24.240 water saying no no freedom no no peace or whatever go to their homes attack them we got
00:56:29.580 people on cnn saying that sarah huckabee songers should be harassed for the rest of her life that's
00:56:34.500 a life sentence they said the same thing about susan collins they're sending ricin to republicans
00:56:40.100 we got rand paul's wife sleeping with the gun we got senators getting the texts of beheading
00:56:45.760 after kavanaugh comes in i mean can you tell the difference in all those stories between antifa and
00:56:51.000 the dnc they sound pretty similar to me gavin mcginnis thanks brother appreciate it
00:56:57.080 cheers god bless gavin mcginnis uh from crtv get off my lawn uh
00:57:03.520 these are the conversations we should be having we should be looking inside and saying
00:57:11.580 what is it i believe what works what doesn't mercury
00:57:15.480 you know in the uh in the book addicted to outrage i i some people who haven't read the book
00:57:26.420 think that it is about um uh surrendering or or just making friends with the left and it's not
00:57:34.280 that's not what this is about at all this is about knowing what you believe and then taking a strong
00:57:40.240 stand but with a different approach because times have changed and um and they're getting more and
00:57:47.560 more dangerous and i have talked to you about martin luther king for a long time uh uh somebody who
00:57:56.040 wrote uh read my book who um i really respect they they read it and they said uh you're about a year
00:58:03.680 to a head i'm not sure um maybe maybe because i think more people will look at this as things become
00:58:12.780 crazier and crazier maybe but it's not about it's not about uniting with the left because i don't think
00:58:20.200 you can unite with the the left the left has gone insane i think you can with a lot of democrats and
00:58:27.040 i'm not talking about the ones in washington i'm not talking about political people i'm talking about
00:58:30.140 your neighbors but the first thing we have to do is unite with each other we have to unite people
00:58:36.640 people who uh are on the right part of the spectrum need to come together we have to come together
00:58:45.380 and i'm i'm really i i'm i don't like the hey you're on the train or you're not on the train what
00:58:52.840 are you talking about what train where's the train going here's the train that we should all be on
00:58:58.980 the declaration of independence the constitution and the bill of rights because that's why people
00:59:04.440 came here in the first place people die in the middle of the night in the desert to get here
00:59:10.500 because we have a a rule of law b we do not have a class system you can break out if you work hard
00:59:18.720 you're smart and you're a little bit lucky you can break out you can change the world you can invent
00:59:25.860 something in your garage and become bill gates that's america that's great that's why people
00:59:32.280 come here and we're losing sight of that and so the first thing we have to do is ask are we worth
00:59:38.140 saving and i think the answer across the board i'll bet you 80 percent maybe 90 percent of america says yes
00:59:45.180 america is worth saving so what does that mean well capitalism capitalism but not necessarily the way
00:59:52.120 we're doing it not where it's playing favorites the constitution but we haven't been on the
00:59:59.060 constitution or the bill of rights in a long time but we do need a rule of law let me start asking you
01:00:06.180 just a few questions and i don't care who you voted for i don't care what side of the aisle you're on
01:00:11.380 just answer yes or no do you hate men do you hate white people do you hate black people
01:00:25.260 do you hate jews do you hate cops do you hate capitalism do you want to shout down others that have
01:00:39.980 a different opinion do you want to shout down god or hate god
01:00:46.980 do you believe street violence is the way we solve things in america
01:00:58.760 if you answered yes to any of those things i don't think i have much in common with you
01:01:05.580 but i don't care who you voted for i'll bet you the vast majority said no to all of those things
01:01:11.540 and it wasn't a hard well i don't know it was no no no no no no no no no that's who we are
01:01:20.960 those are the people we you need we need to unite with but the easy ones to get are the ones on our own
01:01:31.060 side gavin mcginnis and i may disagree on a lot of things we disagree i i believe that it would be
01:01:39.420 much more helpful to take the martin luther king pledge and go and walk through antifa
01:01:48.580 singing hymns and let them club you in the head go ahead let them club you in the head i know that's
01:01:54.680 not fun i don't want that but that video of not breaking ranks and not punching back that video
01:02:04.440 will speak to 80 percent of americans that video will cross all barriers and people will say okay
01:02:12.820 look at these guys they're not even defending themselves look at what they're doing to them
01:02:17.600 you put evil versus good side by side and people in america at least still at this point will choose
01:02:25.700 good but it has to be really good it has to be a shining example of good it has to be over the top good
01:02:33.560 that's why this is where we disagree i understand you know gavin and uh the proud boys what they're
01:02:42.540 doing i don't think they're wrong for wanting to do it and i don't think they're wrong for thinking
01:02:49.680 that it's the right thing because how is it right how is it wrong to stand up to bullies how is that wrong
01:02:57.680 how is that wrong if the police won't stand up if the media won't stand up who's going to so i
01:03:07.640 completely understand that and i can't blame you can't i get it i just think it's not effective
01:03:18.280 because what happens is the media then just takes the piece of the video that they have
01:03:23.140 where somebody's swinging back and then they say it's their fault so it's just not as effective
01:03:29.420 do i want to get clubbed in the head no no
01:03:33.840 but if gavin and i can't come together even though we have big disagreements
01:03:43.660 our disagreements are not on the things that actually matter
01:03:49.520 we're not talking tactics the things that actually matter are the principles
01:03:56.260 bill of rights constitution declaration of independence judeo-christian ethic
01:04:02.760 i mean fundamentally the left is you talked about this before shouting their abortion they're proud
01:04:09.380 of their abortion and they're heroes the proud boys are proud of the west right and they're the
01:04:14.840 villains uh you know i think you and gavin would agree completely on on what to be proud of uh the fact
01:04:22.500 that uh you know western the western way of life is is something to cherish it's a miracle it is and
01:04:29.600 there's nothing wrong with with defending that at all uh you know tactics are tactics aside we have
01:04:36.160 to if we don't defend it it's going to go away you know we're all you know we're only one generation
01:04:40.860 away from losing this as we all know and maybe a generation seems like it could be a week or two away
01:04:45.680 at this at this rate so we have to sit there and defend it it's it's just you know what's the best way
01:04:51.260 of doing it and i think that there's a there's a discussion there um because i think you know i
01:04:55.980 think as um gavin would acknowledge and we kind of talked about it in the interview they're going to
01:05:00.140 be they're going to be under the microscope now they're going to be on their absolute best behavior
01:05:03.260 as when the tea party was going on right when we went out and did these rallies if there were you said
01:05:07.920 don't bring signs because we know if there's one sign that's out of place if one person makes
01:05:13.580 one sign that has any hint of something bad it will be the entire story don't even bring signs
01:05:19.240 make sure you clean up when we when we walk away we want to we want this uh this area to be cleaner
01:05:24.580 than when we got here and time after time after time that happened and they weren't able to show
01:05:31.080 to say with any evidence that they were violent so here's the thing i think we were way ahead
01:05:37.240 roger ales told me once he said you're so far ahead of the parade you're about four blocks ahead
01:05:43.720 they can't even see you that's just you walking by yourself when you're four blocks ahead of the
01:05:47.660 parade you're just that was his point you're on a stroll that was his point and he said you're so
01:05:52.460 far ahead and i said well i i don't know i'm just doing what i feel is right and he said slow down
01:05:57.920 you're way too far ahead that was the best advice he ever gave me i never listened to it but uh it was
01:06:06.300 good advice and i think you know when we were talking people used to say all the time why are you
01:06:10.700 talking about martin luther king why are you talking about martin luther king when we went to birmingham
01:06:13.540 i said i want everybody here i want you to sign that that martin luther king thing well there was
01:06:18.780 nobody shouting us down there was nobody doing that and i said on stage there will be there will be
01:06:25.800 there's going to come a time soon where you're going to have to decide there will be these times in
01:06:35.320 our future and you have to decide now we're just ahead imagine doing imagine doing a rally now we
01:06:45.720 were afraid of the restoring honor rally because if you remember right the black panthers were going
01:06:52.840 to come and they were going to engage us well the black panthers joined with uh with al sharpton and
01:07:01.220 they tried they just marched through they didn't cause trouble they just marched through and we let
01:07:08.520 them go and there's video of people saying good things as they're saying bad things to us we're saying
01:07:14.520 good things to them now at the time it wasn't like antifa in portland and antifa wasn't there
01:07:24.420 if you do a rally and it is peaceful and antifa comes to attack and and we're the ones and we don't oh
01:07:37.640 my gosh what am i saying good god and we don't turn away we don't raise a fist that's a different story
01:07:48.840 now and one that people want to hear because people aren't believing the media anymore and they're
01:07:55.220 seeing these words come out of there are democrats i'm telling you all over the country that say look
01:08:00.880 i maybe i believe in abortion but i don't believe in that i don't believe in partial birth abortion
01:08:06.500 i don't believe in hey abortion should be you know you should be proud of it go shout it it's great
01:08:12.040 there's nothing wrong with it no normal people look at that on the democratic side i mean
01:08:18.260 the voter that lives next to you they look and say look i don't want to be involved in those decisions
01:08:24.380 but you know i i'm i don't agree with that i don't agree with that out of compassion medical
01:08:33.880 because i don't know people's situation yes but if that's your version of the pill and you're proud of
01:08:41.380 that's a problem that's who america is and they're looking they're looking for a movement
01:08:50.880 they're looking for someone they can stand with who just will call balls and strikes who are not going
01:08:56.740 to say yep that's right when donald trump tweets something stupid just say it's stupid i don't agree
01:09:05.860 with that but when he does something right yeah he did that look at that huh call balls and strikes
01:09:12.820 that's where america is but the first thing we have to do is come together behind those principles i
01:09:22.820 don't care if you are on the democratic side or the republican side or the independent side i don't
01:09:27.960 care i don't care who you voted for in the past i don't care what you believed in the past what do you
01:09:32.960 believe now do you believe we're on the ropes do you believe this system of government is worth saving
01:09:38.900 do you believe this this capitalism is worth saving do you believe the the scientific method is worth
01:09:47.520 saving great then let's stand together and put our our differences of approach aside because we got a
01:09:58.780 lot of work to save this thing right now
01:10:01.660 by the way gavin has already been silenced on twitter and if voices don't start coming together
01:10:11.800 uh more are going to be silenced what was it five or six hundred uh were silenced last week
01:10:19.200 from facebook and i don't see anybody talking about it i don't see anybody talking about it yeah it kind
01:10:23.700 came and went in just a couple of days no big deal 60 million followers just disconnected from the
01:10:32.100 voices that they were following last week 60 million nothing all right let me tell you about relief
01:10:39.520 factor relief factor has been helping uh me alleviate uh or alleviate pain um starting almost a year ago
01:10:50.040 now it was in december i was getting ready to go on vacation and uh we almost didn't go because my
01:10:56.200 pain was so bad and i was just so desperate and uh you basically given up it seemed like i had you just
01:11:02.060 resign yourself to this is just your life and i was starting to resign i was like i was at the time
01:11:08.820 saying this will concern my wife i was at the time saying i can't live this way anymore i just can't do it
01:11:12.560 i can't do this every day uh and so i started taking relief factor and within three weeks
01:11:18.680 uh i saw great improvement and i thought okay well maybe this is maybe this isn't i don't know i
01:11:26.220 started taking it every day i continued 100 drug free created by doctors four key ingredients that help
01:11:33.040 your body fight against inflammation after three weeks i saw a difference and i'm getting better and
01:11:39.000 stronger every single day now it's amazing not on anything else but relief factor three week quick start
01:11:45.760 try it you have nothing to lose nothing to lose you have everything to gain you can get your life
01:11:52.120 back try it relieffactor.com go there now relieffactor.com
01:11:58.460 stew what is it going to take i mean when you listen to uh gavin mcginnis about a half hour ago on the
01:12:08.900 program and you listen when i said what so what is it you believe in what is the america that you see
01:12:14.100 i don't see anything that should be shut down i don't think i don't see anything that is dangerous
01:12:19.820 or or any good that comes out from silencing not only him but you know even a crazy man like
01:12:27.020 alex jones but gavin is not saying things that are dangerous you know we've always said more voices
01:12:37.540 not less not less or probably should be not fewer i get those confused all the time i think it is
01:12:42.840 but uh you want i mean that's the whole thing here you're supposed to be able to talk about these
01:12:48.920 things openly with people that you disagree with and ideally right like if you care about something
01:12:55.020 and you're passionate about it you're working on persuading someone else right yeah i don't know
01:12:59.500 that you can get into a situation where you're on the streets talking to antifa that anyone's going
01:13:04.000 to ever get convinced of anything no so i mean i it's not that's not where i direct my attention
01:13:08.020 typically but i understand that like you can't have i mean if i lived in portland right now i would be
01:13:12.920 happy that uh organizations were showing up to defend me against antifa um i i can see that you know when
01:13:21.160 you get to this you get to this point and you you mentioned this earlier when we talked about it in
01:13:26.340 what was it 2015 in alabama about how you know some point there's going to be these groups doing
01:13:32.680 these things they're going to be ripping people out of their businesses they're going to be doing
01:13:35.840 terrible things they're going to be destroying property it's all here that's all here and you
01:13:41.840 know someone has to stand up for it and if the mayor's not going to direct the police to do it
01:13:46.420 what happens to the average citizen so we're going to go to brazil next because there is a
01:13:51.840 there's a presidential um election going on in brazil that appears to be pretty frightening
01:13:58.680 and steve bannon surprise surprise is in the heart of it mercury glenn beck is coming live to talk
01:14:07.300 about the right path forward and to make fun of the people standing in the way he might not be able
01:14:11.660 to save the country but at least we can all go down laughing glenn beck live the addicted to outrage
01:14:16.800 tour on tour this fall glenn beck it's tuesday october 16th this is the glenn beck program i want to talk
01:14:27.720 you a little bit about brazil and the elections that are going on there um nobody's paying attention
01:14:32.620 to this because you know it's it's it was far more important than we talk about somebody's you know
01:14:37.020 cherokee heritage but something is happening in brazil that um can really upset the americas both north and
01:14:45.080 south they are they were in an election now uh and the guy that might win has some scary earmarks and
01:14:55.960 the press if you ever hear talk about him says oh this is uh brazil's donald trump no no i don't think
01:15:02.160 so although i believe steve bannon is involved in this this brazil remember when uh who was it uh lula
01:15:12.360 president wasn't it president lula uh he was really popular things were going well for brazil everything
01:15:18.100 seemed to be going great for brazil yeah unfortunately there was this huge corruption scandal in the
01:15:24.080 government and i think it was in the oil industry uh and it was massive just massive and a lot of
01:15:33.260 people uh went to jail because of that um the some of the districts the police had no fuel for their cars
01:15:42.800 hospitals didn't have basic medication street crime is uh off the charts and when that happens then you
01:15:51.060 start to get radicals only 56 percent of brazilians now say that democracy is the best form of government
01:16:00.240 we we wanted to talk to somebody who could explain this to us and talk down to us because uh honestly i
01:16:07.820 know very little about this uh clarissa olivera is uh with us now she is um covering the brazilian
01:16:17.260 general election uh in brazil uh for the you know the new york times if you will of brazil clarissa welcome
01:16:24.320 to the program thank you glenn for having me sure um do we have a reason to be concerned about let me see
01:16:32.300 his name is uh bol bolsonero bolsonero yes uh the fact is that brazilian voters uh are now responding
01:16:42.500 to approximately a decade of corruption scandals uh and the workers party that is the party from
01:16:51.340 former president lula was deeply impacted in the process uh they are definitely not the sole
01:17:00.120 responsibles for uh these scandals but as almost every large party in brazil was reached
01:17:06.740 uh in some way by the car wash operation the scandal you mentioned that started in the oil business
01:17:13.060 this generated in brazil a completely different situation regarding uh the political class right
01:17:22.460 seven 70 of brazilians say they don't have faith in any political party right exactly and so what we
01:17:30.260 are seeing here is more of a movement against the workers party and the old way to make politics in
01:17:38.220 brazil not only workers party uh several traditional uh parties were impacted in these elections and this
01:17:45.460 created an environment that allowed jair bolsonaro to grow unexpectedly nobody saw this coming uh in this
01:17:54.740 way uh i believe every other all the other candidates were expecting him to um stay small at least until the
01:18:05.140 the middle of the uh first race and what happened he was the victim of a knife attack and this allowed him
01:18:15.300 to stay far from the cameras and he was kind of protected so he wasn't exposed and the fact is i believe
01:18:24.260 uh yes uh every country that has relations uh with brazil uh has a reason to be concerned because we
01:18:32.940 still don't have any clarity on how will be a bolsonaro's government okay so you don't know exactly what's
01:18:41.100 coming he he grew up in a time where there was military rule in brazil and that was that was overthrown
01:18:48.820 uh and democracy came uh and he has hinted in the past that uh that's the way you know you should run
01:18:57.820 a government he has he has called for in what i think 99 a civil war um and the liquidation of about
01:19:05.600 30 30 000 brazilians he is extraordinarily divisive but he is not he is not talking about a smaller
01:19:14.200 government he is talking about a government run by the military or at least he has in the past correct
01:19:20.600 and he's surrounded by military so uh his closest advisors today are uh militaries so uh an exception is
01:19:32.220 uh paulo guedges uh that is appointed as his minister of economy this guy is a liberal so we have several
01:19:40.780 differences regarding president trump as you mentioned he's a he's a liberal and he uh comes
01:19:49.000 he had strong relationships with financial markets in brazil so this is the man that he points out as
01:19:56.320 uh the base of the trust in his government but uh he said he uh it's not clear uh how he will manage
01:20:05.840 his own team he he has had some trouble controlling uh his advisors that have given uh interviews uh
01:20:14.140 saying things that he had later to uh unauthorize them so uh it is possible that uh he will close down
01:20:24.000 and keep a very close government regarding the press for example he has been using social media as his
01:20:30.680 basic communication tool now this is the kind of the kind of the same thing that hugo chavez said
01:20:38.100 when he was running the first time he said oh no it's not going to be this way i'm not going to do
01:20:42.660 and he immediately uh came in and he started taking over the media and and uh nationalizing everything
01:20:50.640 is is there um is that what we're looking at are we looking at a a dictatorship possibility
01:20:59.980 with him that is a military and is it when you say he's liberal is that is that mean a socialist
01:21:08.160 marxist or what does that mean exactly in brazil what we expect here most analysts uh don't see an
01:21:16.360 immediate uh risk to democracy as he will uh take office and immediately he will shut down congress
01:21:24.300 that's not what has been uh discussed here at this time what is expected is that maybe he could uh promote
01:21:32.080 some change in constitution uh it is not clear how he would do it he has uh suggested that he could
01:21:40.540 create a council that would uh create a new constitution for brazil and that would be submitted uh to uh vote
01:21:50.160 uh after it so uh in in a consult to to people to uh electors in general so it he had to to take back
01:22:00.820 this this proposal but it's not clear if he will uh bring it back once he takes office because the fact
01:22:07.640 is that he's not going to debate he uh is giving uh just a few interviews uh usually he controls the
01:22:17.540 process he has been speaking mainly through social media so he has no confrontation from the press
01:22:24.540 and this uh creates a an unknown territory we don't know what's coming but uh analysts most analysts don't
01:22:33.720 expect something so drastic uh right at the time including because uh in the legislative elections
01:22:40.500 he got a strong uh performance in uh from his allies in congress so we expect that he has some
01:22:49.280 some level of governability and he will be able to do some of the changes that he intends to but we
01:22:55.760 still don't know exactly what would be those changes um can you tell me steve bannon's involvement in
01:23:01.540 this uh the jair bolsonaro's son eduardo bolsonaro uh he posted online uh a while back a photo of him
01:23:11.820 uh next to bannon and said that bannon uh said he would be glad to help in the campaign or something
01:23:19.280 like this uh this generated a strong repercussion that bannon was involved and was responsible in a
01:23:26.660 in a great part of uh bolsonaro's strategy but uh bolsonaro himself uh came to public afterwards and
01:23:34.620 said it was fake news that has nothing to do with it what we know for a fact is that bannon has given
01:23:41.080 some indications that he considers uh bolsonaro an expression of this right-wing movement that we see
01:23:48.700 in other parts of the world and he includes uh donald trump in this uh movement so he understand that
01:23:55.440 it's uh it's a clear wave in this direction and bolsonaro would be an expression of this but we have
01:24:02.620 no uh clear indication that he would be involved there's a picture of him close to the president's
01:24:08.700 presidential candidate's son uh and some sort of a message that he took part in this somehow but we
01:24:15.900 don't know exactly at what point and clarissa when when is the election finalized when do we know
01:24:22.920 uh now at the end of the month uh on sunday 28th uh we'll have the final results it's very likely
01:24:31.560 the considering the current polls that bolsonaro will be elected uh we uh yesterday we had a recent
01:24:40.320 poll that gave bolsonaro 59 percent of valid votes and fernando adage that is the candidate from the
01:24:46.960 workers party only 41 so it's a big difference and uh bolsonaro uh poll after poll has indicated that
01:24:55.760 uh his electors are very sure of their votes so uh we we would have to have a new fact something
01:25:05.660 that would be strong enough to change the scenario but um it's very likely that he wins the election
01:25:12.980 clarissa we'll talk to you again after the election and uh find out uh some more we'll be following
01:25:19.660 okay thank you so much appreciate it okay thank you so much for having me you bet uh what is disturbing
01:25:28.580 about this is his history uh he has uh he has a very very strong history of um of dictatorship
01:25:40.980 uh love and passion uh love and passion and uh he is not uh donald trump he's not he has time in the
01:25:50.380 government and he is on record now he says he's a changed man uh you know but this is the way things
01:25:57.840 happen you don't come in as a dictator you know even hitler didn't come in as a dictator he came in as a
01:26:05.060 public servant and uh and things are bad in brazil the other thing that is we should pay attention to
01:26:12.460 is steve bannon steve bannon is flying all over the world and he is uh helping cobble together this
01:26:20.200 um populist movement and populism is neither good nor bad it's what are the aims
01:26:30.840 and uh what are they what what what's you know what does someone use populism to get through
01:26:40.120 populism is the patriot act make it so it sounds populist make it so it sounds popular make it so it
01:26:48.820 sounds like something everybody will want that's populism and you can use that for good or evil
01:26:54.940 and um in my opinion bannon is on the dark side of this one and he is definitely someone to keep your eye on
01:27:05.860 and so are all the candidates that he chooses and chooses to engage with um because um in the rest of
01:27:15.540 the world the the believe it or not softness and uh tempered donald trump doesn't necessarily exist
01:27:26.740 our sponsor this half hour is simply safe simply safe is the way to guard your home to watch over
01:27:37.540 you and your family and it's the craftsmanship the craftsmanship that actually helps um uh simply
01:27:47.080 safe beat out all of the other competitors and it makes it so worth it when you when you see simply
01:27:54.740 safe and you see the price of it and then you see the quality of simply simply safe and then you see
01:28:00.760 the quality uh and the lack of craftsmanship and more importantly how much you've been paying for the
01:28:07.300 other system it'll blow you away it's also uh really good for renters uh that's something we
01:28:12.420 don't talk about often but my my sister-in-law has a new baby another one on the way uh and is renting a
01:28:19.200 home and you know this is something you can install in your rental home and then take it out when you
01:28:24.460 leave and put it in the new rental home and you don't have to pay for it again you don't have to deal
01:28:28.160 with all these new fees it's 14.99 a month and when you know we have a you're building a family this is
01:28:33.920 this is a step you have to take this is not this is not optional in today's world right like you got

01:28:59.960 simply safe back.com go there now you'll get 10 off your system it's simply safe back.com
01:29:08.000 so i want to get into the khashoggi case uh this is the case of that washington post journalist he
01:29:17.460 was a saudi citizen he's not you know despite what the journalists will tell you they they leave out
01:29:22.700 the part that he is actually uh muslim brotherhood and uh his problem with saudi arabia is that they
01:29:28.900 wouldn't you know uh protect or sanction the muslim brotherhood well you know saudi arabia knows who
01:29:35.300 the muslim brotherhood is um and uh so he had a falling out with the kingdom and then he had to go get a
01:29:42.640 uh you know divorce certificate he divorced his wife in saudi arabia had to go into the saudi embassy
01:29:50.860 in istanbul turkey and he disappeared his fiancee was waiting for him outside it appears as though
01:29:58.200 saudi's came landed a jet on the tarmac came with a bunch of empty suitcases and a bone saw chopped
01:30:05.380 him up and put him in the suitcases took him out of the embassy put him on a plane and he's
01:30:10.760 probably scattered over some desert in saudi arabia saudi arabia said that's outlandish that's crazy
01:30:17.300 yada yada the turks went in uh apparently there was a massive cleaning crew that went in right before
01:30:24.360 the turks could go and investigate uh the some more things were leaked by the fbi or sorry about the
01:30:30.800 cia etc and uh now our secretary of state is over with the king of saudi arabia and it looks as though
01:30:38.380 they are going to admit that yes they did kill him uh but it was an interrogation that just went
01:30:44.880 horribly wrong and we're going to punish all the people that were involved
01:30:47.500 so now like a 24 episode oh it's it's crazy yeah this is i mean this is honestly rear window
01:30:55.900 alfred hitchcock this exactly alfred hitchcock with somebody sitting outside going wait i i i think they
01:31:05.220 chop her up in that case it's a woman i think they chopped her up and then took her away in the middle
01:31:10.380 of the night and everybody's like no that's crazy well it yep turns out it was and uh and it's the
01:31:17.520 same thing here somebody's sitting outside going i think they chopped him up and took him out in
01:31:20.880 suitcases it's it is the hitchcock rear window and this has obviously gone very awry for the saudis
01:31:26.720 because you don't do things like this and expect to admit to an interrogation gone wrong two weeks
01:31:31.280 later like this is something you do and you deny i mean russia does this all the time they're
01:31:36.200 constantly killing journalists and they're like i don't even who i don't even know who that was what
01:31:40.020 is polonium i've never even heard of the thing you know like that that's their pattern and they never
01:31:44.720 admit it if saudi arabia actually comes out and admits yeah we kind of killed that journalist that's
01:31:49.940 a big moment uh in you know geopolitics that's not a that's not a tiny thing today or how today or
01:31:56.220 tomorrow the way the president answers saudi arabia when when they admit to doing this this is an ally
01:32:05.320 uh this is one of our bigger backers this is probably our best friend next to israel in the
01:32:12.220 middle east they stand against a lot of the stuff that we stand against they're a big supporter now
01:32:19.300 of israel um we're in a proxy war in yemen with them most people don't even know that but we're fighting
01:32:26.020 a war in yemen at their request and they're fighting with us um they keep iran at bay we're about to
01:32:35.160 sell them a whole buttload of arms they also dump money into our tech industry yeah tech is taking a
01:32:41.580 beating right now because of this um they also dump a lot of money into our banking system uh they also
01:32:47.840 have that cool orb that which is okay that's okay sure it's pretty sweet sure okay did the orb predict
01:32:54.120 this do we know that has anyone asked the orb why hasn't anyone interviewed the orb about this
01:32:58.360 incident notice how the orb is uh shockingly stuffed inside of it he's stuffed inside of it
01:33:04.440 now how they said they hide so um what does the president do what do we do this way you don't get
01:33:10.820 involved in these things because it's none of our business i mean i don't want it to be any of our
01:33:16.000 business i don't want to have our whole economy and everything else hinge on what they just did
01:33:21.760 we don't like that we don't want to endorse it we don't want to be anywhere near it
01:33:25.720 it certainly feels different but help me quantify the difference here for a minute
01:33:29.580 these regimes are killing people all the time yes uh we know bad things are happening uh all the time
01:33:35.880 and you know saudi arabia is not innocent of these things yes is it just because it's a journalist is
01:33:40.560 it just because it was on foreign territory in an embassy is it just because you know like the
01:33:45.120 washington post really cares what happens to this guy so therefore it's become a big issue
01:33:49.320 they can go after a kushner and and and trump because of the relationship what do you think
01:33:55.600 i'd say yes on all of that i'd say yes to all of that okay um i don't think if this guy was a
01:34:01.160 preacher nobody would have been paying attention we got one back and no one yeah nobody seemed to
01:34:06.160 care this one because it's one of theirs uh the press cares more about it but also foreign soil and
01:34:12.780 you know the suitcase thing it's a pretty amazing story mercury
01:34:17.200 this is the glenbeck program so stew can you help me war game this a bit talk about this saudi arabia
01:34:27.760 thing because right now congress is saying we want to slap major sanctions on them okay um you know
01:34:35.600 that we're we're at a point to where uh i said you know back in the early 2000s you're going to get to
01:34:41.440 a point where if you haven't dealt with these problems it's going to be too late and there isn't
01:34:45.860 going to be a single good option you are not going to like the options and so right now you have
01:34:52.060 people saying you know i just go we're just we're not going to sell them the arms we're going to slap
01:34:56.780 sanctions on they admit this this is horrible and it is it is and that's probably what america should
01:35:03.920 do however let me play devil's advocate oil is already up at 80 some some uh oil is headed up to
01:35:14.760 a hundred dollars a barrel we've pretty much shut down the texas oil reserves where i mean we're
01:35:20.540 slowing them down because of the price of oil they couldn't make enough money so they kind of slowed
01:35:25.480 them down we have to open those things back up again which we can do but we're not held hostage by
01:35:32.040 oil but a a spike a severe spike 120 140 a barrel that's what collapsed us last time in 2008 was a spike
01:35:43.320 to 130 or 140 a barrel you also have turkey this is coming from turkey and istanbul um turkey is no fan
01:35:55.740 of saudi arabia um the balance of power with turkey is a little frightening economically the saudi royal
01:36:05.040 funds are big in silicon valley and that's why one of the reasons why our stock market is taking a hit
01:36:12.360 at least in the tech sector because they think if this goes the wrong way then the the fund the
01:36:18.640 funding is not going to come from saudi arabia anymore and you know where are they going to go
01:36:22.740 to get it now obviously there's other places for them to get money for the tech industry but
01:36:26.460 it was easy money uh from the saudis it was uh easy to get they had plenty of it they were looking
01:36:32.240 to invest it and when you lose a huge source of funding like that it's you know it can hurt the
01:36:37.280 industry you also have saudi arabia being the massive check on um uh on iran if they are weakened
01:36:46.160 if uh they are uh weakened in the area not only with iran but also the muslim brotherhood
01:36:53.100 that's a significant force in our favor in that i mean saudi arabia has remained the least bad option
01:37:00.900 in the region for a while next to israel israel israel and jordan there's others that are that i would
01:37:06.020 say are better options but with that amount of power yes and uh you know again credibility in
01:37:12.140 the arab world obviously israel doesn't necessarily have that um but you know saudi arabia you know
01:37:17.640 is a is the big uh sort of backstop right so what do we do they can stop the worst of the things
01:37:24.760 you're president you're president's president stew what do you do today i uh uh resign no uh i i think
01:37:35.700 um you have to figure first of all we need i would certainly the first thing i would do is have more
01:37:40.800 information than i currently do um so i see her over there with the king and the king says oh she's
01:37:45.620 screw up total screw up this guy they were out of control you know i wanted him brought over here
01:37:51.360 they got out of control they started torturing him for answers he died then they just chopped him up put
01:37:58.780 him in a suitcase yes all of that stuff is true and i can't believe and these guys they've all
01:38:03.180 they're already dead or whatever uh you know but yes we did it jeez i mean i think you at the very
01:38:12.420 least are going to do something public right you're going to do potentially sanctions or something of
01:38:17.380 that nature um you're probably also uh going to tell them they need to be uh incredibly uh open about
01:38:25.740 punishing these people uh and sending that signal uh and i think uh you probably wind up
01:38:33.380 as a president with everything that you have to uh deal with i mean i think it's okay to take a stand
01:38:39.820 and say you know this sort of stuff can't happen anymore we still have relations with a lot of a lot
01:38:43.740 of countries who have done much worse than having killing one journalist as sad as that is i mean
01:38:47.960 this is you know this happens all over the world this isn't this guy is not just a journalist he is a
01:38:55.080 he is a member of the muslim brotherhood that's really the problem here is that uh they believe
01:39:02.640 that he was um you know helping the muslim brotherhood against saudi arabia and possibly even
01:39:10.640 helping the muslim brotherhood here in the united states so he's not just a journalist this let's let's
01:39:16.200 let's clear that up this isn't saudi arabia columnist really yeah and it's not that they
01:39:21.460 were killing him because he was a journalist but because of his ties to the muslim brotherhood
01:39:26.300 right we think i mean it's you know it's literally impossible to be able to judge all the moving
01:39:32.140 parts behind the scenes that we don't know about right and you know that's just why you this is why
01:39:35.740 you hire a president that you trust and and you know this is why you vote right because it's these
01:39:41.020 situations we know this with bush i mean you you met with him during the war and he informed
01:39:46.040 you of nothing top secret or anything but a lot of the different uh things that you had to consider
01:39:52.960 when making these decisions and you know it's easy to say well we should just never talk to saudi
01:39:57.040 arabia again and throw him out there's a lot of things behind the scenes that they're doing for
01:40:00.360 example helping in the fight against terrorism they've been uh while obviously as we all know
01:40:05.780 9-11 uh many of the people came from saudi arabia there's been all sorts of questions on that and
01:40:10.720 we've talked about distancing ourselves for a long time and this is probably a great uh opportunity to do
01:40:15.660 that a little bit um but you know there's there have been they've also arrested and killed a lot
01:40:20.880 of terrorists uh that have assisted us over the years as well um on those efforts so i mean it's
01:40:28.000 a tough one i think you have to you have to send the signal you have to make sure i think probably
01:40:32.240 sanctions or something if this is actually uh proven um you have to you have to do something publicly
01:40:38.380 but you look at i mean russia's done terrible things like that and we haven't uh we haven't
01:40:44.280 acted uh anymore not selling arms to russia no no it's true not selling arms to russia and you know
01:40:50.820 the idea that okay well arm sales help jobs is not a great argument this is the one thing that we have
01:40:55.840 to we can't really consider the economy first when you're talking about arm sales yeah um but you know
01:41:00.540 i think taking that step of of probably sanctions and maybe that's what it is maybe it's arms um is this
01:41:07.240 going to be an important really really important decision for us what does president glenn do um
01:41:13.500 first i go back in history and i look at uh the archduke ferdinand moment because this is the exact
01:41:20.200 kind of moment that the world thinks is no big deal that could spiral out of control so quickly
01:41:24.780 um i send my secretary of state over which is exactly what trump did yesterday um i gather all of
01:41:31.920 the evidence and then i am as strong as i possibly can uh understanding and weighing everything uh
01:41:39.760 that is currently going on trying not to weaken them but not necessarily empower them uh as well
01:41:48.900 and try to get myself out of it in a long-term strategy of getting away from the bad guys and i think
01:41:54.560 you know we're both going back and forth a little bit because we just don't know what's going on behind
01:41:58.520 the scenes there's not enough information to make this decision logically but what i'll say is that
01:42:01.760 while i am not a fan at all of this slogan american america first and i think it has a terrible history
01:42:08.520 um in this situation that is your priority here is to make sure that whatever happens is whatever is in
01:42:16.820 america's best interests you can't start a war you can't start um uh you can't go crazy and to just to
01:42:24.100 make a statement if the long-term effect of this is a negative for the united states we've seen this
01:42:30.800 with uh north korea right like i mean in north korea you can i think make a serious argument that
01:42:35.760 and i don't think trump wants to go out there and be i talking about how he loves kim jong-un
01:42:40.500 publicly i think he thinks that's the best way to avoid negative consequences and if we're if i got
01:42:47.580 to say a bunch of words to make this better good we were saying this last night on the news and
01:42:52.180 why it matters again south korea the time to take care of that was under the bush administration
01:42:57.240 we didn't or clinton or clinton we didn't do it and now you're in a situation where you have no
01:43:03.400 good options well welcome to the world that we ourselves created or allowed it to be created for
01:43:08.380 us same situation in saudi arabia let me go to chad quickly in south carolina hello chad

01:45:52.720 uh and uh just a great story i saw it with my wife on friday and we went and there was a whole row
01:45:59.400 of 40 something year old woman women uh all coming in with a glass of wine uh and uh it wasn't pretty
01:46:08.920 it wasn't pretty uh you know they just wanted him with his shirt off and uh it just wasn't it was done
01:46:15.040 and they drank and they drank and they drank and they drank and they drank and uh when we walked out
01:46:19.900 i'm not going to give away anything but it it happens in his home in a garage with the last
01:46:24.580 couple of scenes and you know it's it's kind of the climax of the whole movie and uh and you
01:46:31.360 you know it it kind of is a thread that weaves throughout the entire movie okay and uh they
01:46:37.140 were standing in the lobby on the end going i don't i didn't what what what happened in the garage
01:46:43.400 what happened and they're like and the other one's like i don't know i didn't understand it i'm like
01:46:49.200 oh my god how did you they were so blasted this is why you don't they did see him with his shirt
01:46:57.000 off so that was good for them stay away from alcohol yeah i know you could do some really good
01:47:01.760 you should see it uh yeah uh and uh it did it's doing very well uh at least as far as the reviews go
01:47:08.180 people are talking about it as a big time oscar movie have you seen what is it first didn't
01:47:12.080 first man first man have you seen that i haven't um though i'm fascinated by the sort of cultural
01:47:17.760 controversy around surrounding that movie which i mean we talked about it when the story came out
01:47:22.640 that they didn't put the scene of them planting the flag in the moon right um in the movie which
01:47:29.860 is the iconic moment of this story i mean but the argument was it's not it's showing it's making it
01:47:35.100 into a global thing and i said if they have the patches of the flag on their arms yep they have the usa
01:47:40.080 on the rocket and the and the flag on the you know the the lunar lander what's the problem
01:47:46.660 right it's it's an odd choice i thought you know it's the iconic moment of that movie why wouldn't
01:47:53.060 you put it in the movie it's the iconic moment of that whole situation i don't think so i think the
01:47:58.620 iconic moment is the one step for man that's another one yeah i mean there's a couple yeah um but
01:48:04.320 now uh now i've not seen the movie um but there's a couple articles that are out talking about the
01:48:09.880 flag and first of all the flags all over the movie i mean they they can cite you know 15 20 examples of
01:48:16.360 the flag all over the place and some of it is like just a patch or is that yeah you know which which
01:48:20.140 you kind of understand would be really obvious if they took out but it's not even only just that for
01:48:24.000 example uh apparently they don't show them planting the flag into the moon however in the scene
01:48:30.940 you can see the flag planted in the moon in the background like it's already been planted there
01:48:35.760 and they show it it's not like they're avoiding the flag they just don't show that moment not good
01:48:39.860 enough what if those 40 year old women are there like i don't understand how did the flag get there
01:48:44.760 was it there already did somebody else come and put it in how did they can't even get there a couple
01:48:51.280 bottles of chardonnay you might not understand this but i mean are we not just a victim here of
01:48:57.360 of of addiction outrage right like this does not seem to be a thing no it's most of it's not most
01:49:04.140 of it's this this okay today there's a tweet from donald trump oh did he say something crazy of course
01:49:10.800 he did it's a tweet from donald trump today we're also talking about uh warren elizabeth warren's
01:49:16.580 cherokee heritage why does this matter why does this matter i mean you know again we have the saudi arabia
01:49:25.280 thing going on that is much more important i mean you know not to mention that we're going to hit a
01:49:30.260 trillion dollars in debt again for this year another trillion dollars in debt there's no sign of that
01:49:36.560 letting off despite the fact that we are in a good economy we're popping a trillion plus on the books
01:49:42.620 when the unemployment rate is almost at full employment we're almost at the peak of our employment
01:49:49.060 uh situation we are at a point where we are the stock market despite a couple bad days this week
01:49:54.940 uh has been raging for a very long time uh housing prices are up everything you know everything is
01:50:01.560 pointing in the right direction and we're still throwing a trillion dollars on the fire let me just
01:50:06.540 put this up this new banner from cnn a disappearance of journalists put spotlight on trump's business ties
01:50:13.880 he is because candidate trump talked about uh uh doing business with the saudi arabians yes he's
01:50:22.000 talked about that for a very long time oh my gosh are you kidding me now the only reason why they care
01:50:27.160 about the saudi arabian thing forget about you forget about gas prices forget about the economy forget about
01:50:32.940 the tech sector forget about all of that this is just another way for them to talk about donald trump
01:50:39.960 don't play that game just don't play that game i wish i cared about anything in the world as much
01:50:44.980 as cnn cares about what donald trump tweets i i mean if they are absolutely chemically obsessed with
01:50:51.960 this man they are it's it's incredible they are chemically addicted they cannot break the spell
01:50:58.840 and unfortunately the one who loses in that is them
01:51:03.080 glenn beck mercury
01:51:09.240 you
