Transcript
00:00:00.000
Hey, welcome to the Monday podcast. That's Glenn and Stu, and we start right off with
00:00:06.040
the socialists. That's crazy talk. The socialists in the Democratic Party. They expose themselves
00:00:13.680
like nobody's business this weekend. We have that. Also, don't forget, tonight is a special
00:00:20.600
on Bernie Sanders. We get into a little bit on the podcast, but on Blaze TV, the Glenn TV
00:00:27.760
button will take you right to my show at 5 p.m. Eastern. That is part two of Bernie Sanders,
00:00:35.260
the people behind Bernie Sanders, and they are the radical, I mean, they make Van Jones
00:00:41.420
really look like somebody that was driven by a grandma, you know, only on Sundays.
00:00:47.140
Yeah, and this is basically the stuff that you were revealing about Obama and these people around
00:00:51.500
him who were saying all these crazy things publicly in the past, but then won't admit it now.
00:00:56.780
So this is all this stuff times 10, and what's interesting about it is you can see them now
00:01:03.580
that they're getting closer to campaign mode saying things like, well, look, we don't want
00:01:09.300
socialism. We don't want collective ownership. We're not like that type of socialist. Well,
00:01:13.680
they've all said that before. We have the video of it, and you'll see that tonight on TV.
00:01:17.320
It's blazetv.com slash Glenn. Use the promo code Glenn and save 10 bucks.
00:01:22.760
Also, a little history lesson on why it's important not to get into bed with radicals
00:01:27.280
and piss off your own side, and believe it or not, our Godzilla review, all on today's podcast.
00:01:33.640
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:57.560
No, just a couple of tweets, but apparently you can't expect anyone to actually think
00:02:08.820
I'm curious as to what you thought was going to happen.
00:02:13.240
Well, I defended two people this weekend, and that's where the trouble started.
00:02:18.860
Who, Steven, is in a war with NBC, Universal, and Vox.
00:02:24.620
There's this guy who, what's he called himself?
00:02:30.620
Gay geek would have been better, alliteration, but, you know.
00:02:36.120
So, he was, so he's in this battle back and forth, and they're making Steven look out like
00:02:46.260
Steven is not a hater, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:02:49.360
And so, this guy, NBC, Universal, Vox, went to YouTube and said, you have to investigate
00:03:03.940
Now, Steven's never, Steven has asked for people to, hey, can you look into this guy?
00:03:26.240
Now, you would think that when I say run in 2024 in that tweet, you would understand, don't
00:03:41.940
That did seem to be part of what you said, though.
00:03:58.080
I didn't even get into the nuance of my stance on impeachment.
00:04:02.720
I just said, don't agree with him on impeachment.
00:04:21.540
Maybe you just decide on a particular issue, how you feel.
00:04:30.940
Isn't collectivism supposed to be an aspect we criticize as conservatives?
00:04:40.060
It's like we've completely wholeheartedly accepted and embraced every piece of identity
00:04:48.780
We just disagree on which identities we should be behind.
00:04:54.520
Oh, the British, the Bridget, the Bridget Phetasy thing this weekend, which we also have to
00:05:00.440
She was hammered on Twitter and it's like, why, why is she, why did she do?
00:05:25.980
Uh, so I, I don't know, I don't know how we're going to get past this.
00:05:29.960
If we can't have, uh, if we can't think, see, this is what group think does.
00:05:40.520
Just shout people down and get them to shut up.
00:05:45.580
And if you don't understand subtlety and nuance and, you know, there are things that I agree
00:05:50.960
with this person on and there are things I don't, I'm not going to throw the baby out
00:06:00.800
In fact, I think the only guy that actually has cut spending, not cut the rate of increase,
00:06:13.220
I believe there's five of them out of the 535 out there, five of them that have done
00:06:29.400
Now, when it comes to impeachment, I think this entire thing, first, let me say this.
00:06:34.960
The reason why they haven't impeached him yet is because they know it will be very unpopular.
00:06:41.780
There's a poll today that says that 60% of Democrats want Donald Trump impeached.
00:06:52.720
If you look at the, they, they might say, Oh, it'd be nice if he was impeached, but they
00:07:00.600
If you look at the ratings from cable news last week, last week was a very big, Hey Democrats,
00:07:15.120
And I mean, Democrats, no Democrats are watching it.
00:07:19.920
Now they may say they want it, but they don't want to look at it.
00:07:25.740
And the, of the 40%, I would bet you 35% are saying enough, enough of this.
00:07:35.740
Um, so impeachment is just a political poison pill for the democratic party.
00:07:43.760
I actually kind of hope that they take it, um, because I think Donald Trump is good enough,
00:07:52.360
As long as the economy stays, stays strong, I think it would lead to a massive win for him,
00:07:59.340
but I could be wrong and I don't want to risk it.
00:08:04.320
Um, the, the, the other thing about impeachment that people are like, there was no crime.
00:08:15.340
Impeachment is whatever anyone wants to make it.
00:08:19.960
So in other words, uh, you don't like this guy because he's changed his hairstyle.
00:08:26.840
If you could convince the American people that that's bad enough, that's a betrayal.
00:08:45.920
Nobody's going to impeach him because the American people won't be for it.
00:08:59.060
Then whatever they say is impeachable is impeachable.
00:09:11.740
Remember Watergate, uh, Watergate was going fine for Nixon.
00:09:20.100
It was only when they discovered the 18 minutes of missing tape that the Republicans started
00:09:29.040
to say, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:09:33.300
Now you're editing a tape and we know who you were meeting with.
00:09:44.800
And it was only when the opinion of the people, uh, changed and the opinion of the Republicans
00:09:58.540
I'm, I'm sorry, but I don't see that happening with this president and I don't see it happening
00:10:04.520
with anything that they have on this president.
00:10:09.880
And again, it's not like the Democrats are making a great case for it.
00:10:16.000
Most people are sick of this and they don't think that there is anything to it.
00:10:22.080
And I think Donald Trump is good enough to be able to say, I've got to go back to work
00:10:27.740
for the American people, especially if the economy starts to go soft.
00:10:31.580
This is where it gets really dicey and really risky, but he could make the point.
00:10:37.940
These people have obstructed me from the day I got into, before I got into office, they were
00:10:50.140
I need people who will pay attention to the country, not to this nonsense.
00:10:56.380
And I think he might actually be able to pull that off because nobody's, nobody's watching
00:11:07.040
And I think, I mean, I, you know, I know this audience has this ability to be able to
00:11:11.080
look at things and, and kind of a bigger picture sense.
00:11:15.440
It's like, you know, look, I think he's wrong on the impeachment thing too.
00:11:18.160
If I was in, you know, I would not be on his side of the impeachment thing if I was in
00:11:22.020
However, like look at the rest of, of, of what Justin Amash has brought to the table.
00:11:26.760
He said, let me give you some of these scores, uh, heritage action.
00:11:29.480
He's got a life, a lifetime, 86%, which is very high.
00:11:33.560
Um, in, uh, for eight, the ACU, uh, conservative rating lifetime rating, 87.1%.
00:11:39.680
Conservative review, of course, part of the blaze.
00:11:44.600
Most of that before it was part of the blaze, uh, freedom works.
00:11:55.140
I was, I said five, seven, um, uh, out of 535 who voted to cut spending.
00:12:00.840
Uh, you've got, uh, of course in the Senate, only two Rand Paul, Mike Lee period.
00:12:08.400
You have John Duncan, um, uh, Raul Labrador, um, Griffith, Thomas Massey, who's another really
00:12:14.800
good one, and Justin Amash, who's actually cut it more than anyone in the entire Congress,
00:12:21.760
just slightly ahead of Massey, and I know it bothers Massey.
00:12:26.280
I mean, like, these things, to say that you, you have to throw out someone who is one of
00:12:31.040
the seven people, basically in our government, who take fiscal responsibilities seriously.
00:12:37.680
You have to throw him out because I, and I think he's wrong on this issue, but still,
00:12:42.480
you're going to throw him out and get rid of him because of that?
00:12:45.540
I mean, like, I just don't, I, I don't understand.
00:12:51.800
Even if it passes the House, they can do it with just Democrats.
00:12:54.540
If it gets past the House, it's not gonna happen in the Senate anyway.
00:13:01.320
Like, I love Justin, but basically this is a CNN issue, where they just get to trot out the
00:13:05.740
one Republican who doesn't, you know, who disagrees with Donald Trump on impeachment,
00:13:09.520
and, and then they get to say it's bipartisan, right?
00:13:13.360
But you're going to take a guy who's actually taking all of the issues that we, you know,
00:13:17.820
the Tea Party was formed on, that, you know, conservative values have been, he's got the
00:13:22.380
most libertarian voting record, I would say, in the entire Congress.
00:13:26.520
You're gonna get rid of that guy and, and, and target him as a big part of the problem
00:13:32.260
I just, I don't, it doesn't seem to make sense.
00:13:34.380
He's protecting Second Amendment rights better than anybody in Congress.
00:13:42.160
So we need to be able to say, you know what, that's, his strength is right over there.
00:13:49.520
I mean, we, we are never, I don't agree with everything my wife says.
00:13:54.480
My wife is like, no, we're not gonna, oh my gosh.
00:13:57.840
Trying to watch television in my house is such a nightmare.
00:14:01.360
Trying to watch anything in my house is such a nightmare.
00:14:05.880
Have you seen Good Omens, Good, Good and Bad Omens or something like that?
00:14:11.140
It's a new one on Netflix and my son and I started watching it last night.
00:14:18.060
And it's, it's the, an angel and a devil that are, have been there since the Garden of Eden.
00:14:24.700
And they follow, they kind of, they don't want to admit it, but they both love earth.
00:14:29.800
And they're just kind of digging the whole earth thing.
00:14:35.880
And so they're supposed to bring in the Antichrist.
00:14:39.380
And they're actually both kind of working together to make sure the end of the world doesn't happen.
00:14:51.920
We would be divorced if I had to agree on everything between what we watch on television,
00:14:59.120
where we go on Friday nights and the fricking temperature of the house.
00:15:06.840
Since when are we supposed to agree with absolutely everything somebody says, you know what?
00:15:15.660
Some people are, are right more than they're wrong, but no one is right.
00:15:33.540
And you're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:15:35.520
If you like what you're hearing on this show, make sure you check out Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:15:40.120
It's available wherever you download your favorite podcasts.
00:15:43.220
We're just watching Trump take a tour of Buckingham Palace in the picture gallery.
00:15:51.320
I mean, I don't think we need the wall-to-wall live coverage on every station of him looking at pictures with the queen.
00:16:00.320
I mean, I don't want to look at pictures, you know, with my own family, let alone look at people looking at pictures.
00:16:06.440
But it is important because it shows that she is, I don't want to infer that she's embracing him, but she's not.
00:16:17.160
She's, they seem to be getting along really well.
00:16:21.080
Which is, which is a great message for the queen to, to send.
00:16:42.480
He said, I didn't realize she had gotten so nasty, meaning I didn't know she had said all those nasty things about me.
00:16:51.840
It was in the context of what she said about him.
00:16:55.400
If he had wanted to say she is a nasty person, he would have said it that way.
00:17:07.460
Well, if he thinks you're nasty, he is not that polite.
00:17:10.700
He would have called her something much worse than nasty.
00:17:17.980
My first thought was, why would he say that she's nasty?
00:17:22.100
I can't imagine the context where he's going to England and he says that.
00:17:32.120
And when you listen to the, you listen to the audio, it's like, that's clearly not what he said.
00:17:44.960
And for the press to turn and turn that in, there's not an honest one among them.
00:17:51.840
The headline on CNN this morning was, um, Trump insults his hosts on his way to meeting or something.
00:18:04.900
You didn't even mention that Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, started calling him a fascist before he even got there.
00:18:18.320
The other thing, the other thing that drives me nuts is every time Melania goes out, she looks remarkable.
00:18:36.620
You hear about the Royals and the Obamas and everything else about Michelle's arms.
00:18:45.260
And constantly of who she was wearing and who's this and who's that.
00:18:59.000
I think she's more beautiful than Jackie Onassis.
00:19:00.800
Jackie Onassis is, she's just the epitome of the American first lady that was beautiful and had great taste.
00:19:16.220
It's not fair to compare Melania to anybody else who's been first lady because there's never been anyone even close.
00:19:33.600
I mean, you look at her and it's not that she's just beautiful.
00:19:43.520
And for them to never ignore, again, not an honest person among them.
00:19:49.980
Because I always think that is the most pure example of bias.
00:19:55.840
For example, you can say, look, yes, we give Donald Trump a hard time on his immigration policy.
00:20:08.960
And you can at least come to the point where you're saying, yes, we're being tough.
00:20:12.940
But we're being tough for what's right in the end.
00:20:19.080
You freaking praise Michelle Obama like she looked like a supermodel.
00:20:22.640
Now you have a supermodel and you don't even acknowledge it.
00:20:27.600
No wonderful spreads in the style section of the Washington Post.
00:20:33.860
When she went to Africa, they were actually making fun of her outfit and claiming how colonialist her outfit was.
00:20:42.520
She looked like she had walked off a Ralph Lauren fashion shoot.
00:20:46.720
This is a woman who was born under the thumb of the Soviet Union.
00:20:52.020
She was devastated by huge governments taking over countries.
00:21:01.080
And, again, I go back to my McDonald's fry thing.
00:21:04.740
You can say whatever you want about McDonald's.
00:21:12.880
But if you can't admit that their fries, before the government made them change the recipe, their fries are the best fries made.
00:21:27.120
You can even say their fries might be made out of lead paint and baby children.
00:21:35.000
But still, you have to say, but that baby leg in the shape of a fry, best fry I've ever had.
00:21:43.640
And if you can't admit that, you are not an honest broker.
00:21:47.900
Here's Donald Trump on what he said that the press is saying he called Meghan Markle nasty.
00:21:55.720
Meghan, who's now the Duchess of Sussex, we've given her a different name.
00:22:02.680
She can't make it because she's got maternity leave.
00:22:05.100
Are you sorry not to see her because she wasn't so nice about you during the campaign?
00:22:15.380
She said she'd move to Canada if you got elected.
00:22:36.020
I never heard him so nice about somebody who is, he, look, this was him, this was, this
00:22:47.200
I mean, that's absolutely statesman-like for Donald Trump, right?
00:22:52.180
I mean, to say that someone's highly critical of you, all you can say basically is, look,
00:22:57.420
And, you know, I didn't realize they said those things, but, you know, whatever.
00:23:02.620
Usually he lashes back out, but he didn't at all here.
00:23:05.940
He's like, I didn't realize she said something that nasty.
00:23:14.700
Again, the press, again, tries to get in their gymnastic sort of contortions to try to figure
00:23:20.620
out a new thing they can say that's bad about this guy every day.
00:23:23.320
It's like, just pick the ones that actually are bad.
00:23:25.560
If you find something that is actually bad, then do that.
00:23:27.800
You don't need to have a new alert on the bottom of your screen all the time with whatever
00:23:33.060
You know, that was like the same thing that happened at the end of last week with her
00:23:35.400
like, Donald Trump seems to say that Russia helped him win the election.
00:23:40.240
And you read the tweet and he absolutely did not say that.
00:23:44.360
It's absolutely ridiculous for anyone to think that he said that.
00:23:48.500
He's talking about how everyone else was discussing the election.
00:24:06.340
There's, I mean, look at the number of people that believe in the press.
00:24:16.460
I think people like cockroaches better than they do the press.
00:24:21.420
And it's interesting to watch the press implode and the Democrats implode.
00:24:26.700
You know, you've got them falling all over themselves to make Trump out to be the devil.
00:24:32.740
And then you've got Democrats embracing socialism.
00:24:37.600
This couldn't be set up any better for Donald Trump for 2020.
00:24:43.340
I mean, if a socialist is elected in the United States of America in 2020, then we get what we deserve.
00:25:04.040
She was on with Chris Wallace in a town hall kind of thing.
00:25:08.720
And he said, look, you know, you want to pull guns off the street.
00:25:12.720
But anything you're proposing wouldn't have stopped the Virginia shooter.
00:25:21.800
But when you were a congresswoman representing a conservative district in upstate New York,
00:25:27.300
you took pretty conservative positions on guns and immigration.
00:25:32.080
Once you became the senator for the entire liberal state of New York,
00:25:35.880
you flipped and took much more liberal positions on guns and immigration.
00:25:43.620
It's because I came from a district that was really rural.
00:25:51.280
My mom, of course, she cooked the Thanksgiving turkey, but she also shot the Thanksgiving turkey.
00:25:55.760
So I understand the importance of having a hunting culture and preserving our Second Amendment rights.
00:26:03.060
And that's why I'm in the best position, Chris, to lead this country into a place where we can have common sense gun reform.
00:26:13.580
I heard the three points you specifically made.
00:26:17.980
Having said that, none of them would have prevented what happened in Virginia Beach.
00:26:23.280
This gentleman, he didn't buy an assault weapon.
00:26:30.380
I understand that you this all of your plans aren't going to stop all of them.
00:26:34.700
But is there anything you could have done that would have stopped this terrible incident?
00:26:40.160
Stop being beholden to the NRA like President Trump is.
00:26:52.480
How about the stat on just Bloomberg's organization?
00:26:56.400
Michael Bloomberg has an anti-gun organization, as you may know.
00:27:00.280
He spent 50% more in the 2018 election than the NRA did.
00:27:06.240
Just his organization spent 50% more in that election than the NRA.
00:27:23.880
She goes on to claim that they don't care about money.
00:27:35.140
By the way, I don't believe that your mom went out and shot the turkey, too.
00:27:43.320
Well, the reason why you think I flip-flopped is because when I was in a conservative district,
00:27:49.400
then I voted conservative, but now I'm not, so now I'm voting liberal.

00:28:31.500
Now, this is a video that was just put out this last week from the campaign on what Bernie Sanders says Democratic Socialism really is.
00:28:42.560
What Democratic Socialism means to Bernie is having a government which represents all people, not just the very wealthy.
00:28:50.380
Democratic Socialism is making sure that all of our people have health care as a right, education as a right, housing as a right, and child care as a right.
00:29:01.480
For Bernie, Democratic Socialism does not mean that government should own the means of production.
00:29:07.360
It means that the middle class, the working families, and the working people who produce America's wealth deserve a fair share of it.
00:29:16.320
In 1965, when President Johnson passed Medicare and Medicaid, conservatives like Trump attacked these programs as a socialist threat to our American way of life.
00:29:26.820
We can look at the example of countries like Denmark, Finland, and Sweden, where working people came together to make sure everyone benefited from the wealth being generated,
00:29:37.020
and all people are guaranteed health care, a good education, and the ability to take care of their family.
00:29:44.600
Both Costa Rica and Colombia guarantee health care to their citizens with almost no co-pays or deductibles.
00:29:51.560
Both countries' health care systems have been ranked higher than the U.S.
00:29:55.720
Donald Trump partners with war criminals, rips babies from their mothers, and puts children in cages.
00:30:02.460
While Trump lies, Bernie asks the important questions, like,
00:30:06.580
Why do we have grotesque levels of income and wealth inequality?
00:30:11.300
Why are millions of people leaving school deeply in debt?
00:30:16.340
Why do we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of almost any major country on Earth?
00:30:22.340
Why do we have more people in jail than any other country?
00:30:28.000
I love his questions, because they're interesting questions.
00:30:40.800
Do you know we're $22 trillion in debt right now?
00:30:44.180
Do you know how much we have spent on the war on poverty since Johnson?
00:30:50.440
We've spent $22 trillion on eradicating poverty, and poverty is right where it's always been.
00:31:09.560
You say that he believes that democratic socialism represents all people, not just the rich.
00:31:28.400
The problem is, is if you have 1%, 1%, if in bed with all the politicians, can control everyone else.
00:31:37.700
But 1%, if it's not in control of all the politicians, can be easily deemed the target, the scapegoat,
00:31:45.080
and you can round them up and do whatever you want with them.
00:31:49.060
That's why we believe all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.
00:31:56.800
Meaning, you have this right, and no one can take it away from you.
00:32:02.700
See, our government is different than all other governments ever conceived by man.
00:32:08.440
Our government said, there are rights that the people start with.
00:32:13.180
And the job of the government is just to protect those rights.
00:32:18.060
Where what Bernie Sanders is saying, all people have the right, according to her, to health care.
00:32:28.780
All people have a right to education and housing.
00:32:32.520
If housing, education, child care, and health care are all a right,
00:32:38.660
then the government must ensure that everyone has that.
00:32:46.120
Everyone, no matter what you do, no matter you work, you don't work,
00:32:56.680
Because once you insure all of those rights, you then have to pay for all of those rights.
00:33:05.520
You could just take all of the wealthiest 1% and shoot them in the head, take all their money.
00:33:16.760
Well, you have to take then the remaining 4% of the top 5% and shoot them all in the head
00:33:30.460
And by the way, once you've done that, you've also stopped the production of new money.
00:33:37.640
It would be great if we could just pay for everything once.
00:33:42.700
Just take everybody's money away and just pay for it once.
00:33:52.720
But once you start taking the money away from the people who are actually responsible for making most of the money,
00:34:03.560
Because who's going to get up and put up with all the crap?
00:34:11.720
Who's going to go to medical school, lose that amount of money, lose that amount of sleep,
00:34:22.540
dedicate their life, spend half of their life just trying to get into being a doctor.
00:34:36.100
You don't let them have a nice life for what they've sacrificed?
00:34:53.620
You can't have all of these rights and insure the rights of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
00:35:05.280
You can't have free government health care, because it's not free, universal child care, universal education, universal housing,
00:35:25.960
The biggest thing it's in conflict with is you're going to get the tax-paying 50% of the country saying,
00:35:36.800
You're going to get those who believe in the free market saying, I don't want this.
00:35:46.160
Because they've got to be an enemy of this utopia, right?
00:35:50.260
I mean, we'd be able to do it if we could just get them to come along with us.
00:35:54.940
Well, if they won't go along, what are you going to do?
00:35:59.020
Well, you have to first silence them and alienate them.
00:36:16.640
See, this is why the American system has lasted this long.
00:36:20.860
Because how far are you willing to go for somebody else's right?
00:36:28.620
I don't have to fight because if my philosophy is, you do what you want.
00:36:39.700
That's why it was so easy for me when everybody said, you're against gay marriage.
00:36:50.280
Because I believe that's your right to conduct your life the way you see fit.
00:36:56.000
Now, don't tell me what my church can and cannot do.
00:36:59.900
Don't tell me what I have to believe because I'm not telling you what you have to believe.
00:37:09.360
I don't want the government involved in any of these things.
00:37:18.740
And the federal government would guarantee the rights.
00:37:39.180
Now, Bernie Sanders, he can tell you that, you know, health care is so great elsewhere.
00:37:44.960
Well, health care is good in the Netherlands because it's a free market system.
00:37:55.240
But socialized medicine and all of this medicine, it's all falling apart.
00:37:59.780
Because that used to be countries full of nothing but white people.
00:38:03.500
And white people who had exactly the same heritage.
00:38:09.880
And so it was very easy to get a small country to agree that all of the people that they're pretty much related to, they can share.
00:38:28.480
But now that they have new people coming into their culture that don't want to behave like the rest of the people in their culture, it's starting to fail.
00:38:37.320
We are the most diverse country ever on the face of the earth.
00:38:47.480
We have to learn how to live with one another and not force each other's points of view and lifestyles down each other's throats.
00:39:11.760
You're not a member of the knighthood of whatever.
00:39:41.260
I ask you, if you're on the other side of the rights argument and you say you want all of these things, you have 50% of the country that's not going along with you.
00:40:00.760
How are you going to get the other 50% of the country on your side?
00:40:26.760
What is it you're going to do with the half of the country that wants nothing to do with universal everything and democratic socialism?
00:40:37.680
Do you remember when we thought the Center for American Progress was the center of all that was unholy?
00:40:55.440
Maybe they're not the center now, but you're not saying they're that far from the center.
00:40:58.900
Yeah, I mean, they're, yeah, the Center for American Progress.
00:41:01.940
They're the ones that did all the spending bills for Barack Obama.
00:41:13.580
And it was for the, not the bailout, what came after it, the stimulus package.
00:41:24.120
And I remember walking in and I said, and Barack Obama had only been in office like two months.
00:41:31.420
Because there's no way a bunch of guys who just came off an election wrote this.
00:41:40.680
Well, as it turns out, it was the Center for American Progress.
00:41:47.280
All of that stuff came for Center of American Progress.
00:41:50.520
That's a George Soros, Hillary Clinton kind of place.
00:41:57.600
That is now at war with the other side of the Democratic Party.
00:42:04.400
They're the conservatives of the Democratic Party now.
00:42:10.940
That's the old guard is Center for American Progress.
00:42:14.480
And I want to show you how this is, how this is morphed into something very, very dangerous.
00:42:22.840
And it is Bernie Sanders and his campaign that is on the other side of Center for American Progress.
00:42:35.380
John Podesta, good friend of Hillary Clinton's, right?
00:42:45.180
So, it wasn't really a surprise when the Center for American Progress came out and said,
00:42:58.000
However, when they did that, they assumed that everyone at the Center for American Progress was a friend.
00:43:04.700
Now, Center for American Progress put together a website, their news site, called Think Progress.
00:43:22.320
At least we used to think that they were the most left.
00:43:27.100
But the Center for American Progress had their chief editor for the website, Think Progress, go and interview Hillary Clinton.
00:43:39.320
And in the interview, the interviewer, the chief editor, asked her about her support for the war in Iraq.
00:43:47.840
Well, that wasn't supposed to happen because that was one of her Achilles heels.
00:43:53.400
That was one of the things she didn't want to talk about.
00:44:03.700
Did you not tell him, hey, we're on friendly territory here?
00:44:07.900
That's one of the biggest things that's coming out against me.
00:44:12.000
Well, that's exactly the question that the lead Hillary person had for the interviewer.
00:44:20.500
In fact, went and punched him in the chest after the interview and said, what the hell were you doing?
00:44:33.680
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:44:42.000
Steven Crowder is being targeted now on YouTube.
00:44:51.640
And he's being targeted by NBCUniversal and Vox.
00:44:57.220
Vox has this radical guy who calls himself Gay Wonk.
00:45:04.080
And so, he, you know, Steven Crowder, he's a comedian.
00:45:09.560
He's making fun of the way this guy talks and being gay and everything else.
00:45:21.640
If the guy doesn't have a problem with, you know, shouting from the rooftops, hey, this is who I am.
00:45:28.760
Okay, well, you know, if that's who you are, that's totally fine in real life.
00:45:34.040
But if a comedian's going to get a hold of you, he's going to make fun of you.
00:45:50.240
What was it that he was doing to Steven Crowder?
00:45:58.760
He was doing nothing to Steven Crowder, who was completely guilty, and everybody at NBC is completely innocent.
00:46:05.520
That's what always happens in these situations.
00:46:07.500
Like, for example, you know, it's completely fine for the Daily Beast to go in and find a guy who posted a video of Nancy Pelosi speaking slowly,
00:46:19.200
who's just a working-class guy who's a Trump supporter in New York, not really part of the media at all.
00:46:28.160
They can expose him and give all his personal details, all of his post history.
00:46:35.200
And they can go to Facebook, and they can go to Facebook and ask Facebook for details of his postings, and Facebook will give those details to the Daily Beast over this guy that nobody's ever heard of in the entire world.
00:47:01.380
You can criticize Giuliani for posting it and not knowing.
00:47:06.240
The person who posted this video did anything consequential to the United States is completely ridiculous.
00:47:12.280
And they'll go and they'll dox him, and they'll go through his entire history and act as if he's running for president.
00:47:21.480
But God forbid you actually go after a public figure and you make fun of him, that's enough to just overturn your entire account.
00:47:36.960
And they'll do something else tomorrow if they want to, and they feel it'll help them.
00:47:45.080
We're trying to uncover the stories that no one else will.
00:47:48.240
I don't know anybody else who has done this extensive of work on a couple of these candidates, Bernie Sanders being one of them.
00:47:58.680
I mean, literally, we could do shows all summer long just on the people around Bernie Sanders.
00:48:05.080
I think we could do it all summer long and still have you by the end of August going, you've got to be kidding me.
00:48:14.300
There's a lot of people who have surrounded him.
00:48:16.480
No, but I mean the ones that are currently surrounding.
00:48:20.680
You can watch that show on Faiz right now on demand at Blaze TV, and then at 5 o'clock, make sure you're watching tonight's episode because we will show you the rest of the people or some of the rest of the people that are around Bernie Sanders that should make America go,
00:48:41.840
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, if he's surrounded by those people, what are his actual policies if he gets elected?
00:48:53.600
Did you see the person that marched up on stage this weekend?
00:49:00.140
This guy had his hair in a bun, and he was like, I want everybody to listen to a bigger picture here and took the microphones away from Kamala Harris.
00:49:08.700
I want to talk about that because we're entering a new time, and this has played out over and over and over again, and Kamala Harris and everybody on stage actually did the right thing the way they treated him, and they treated him at first with respect, and that was the right thing to do.
00:50:12.040
When they realize, wait a minute, you didn't really mean any of those things, they're going to turn, and they already are.
00:50:20.620
Now, we played the audio of Kamala Harris on stage.
00:50:27.360
She's on stage this weekend, and she's having a conversation on a move on stage, and somebody who likes global warming decided that's not far enough.
00:50:38.700
One of your first big idea on the gender pay gap.
00:50:45.060
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:50:50.000
The guy could have, if it wasn't for the man bun, the guy could have just gone up on stage and just killed her.
00:50:55.840
If he had a gun or a knife or something, he could have killed her.
00:50:59.120
I mean, he could have killed her with his bare hands if he didn't have a man bun and had no ability to do such things.
00:51:08.340
Anyway, so this this is a sign of things to come.
00:51:15.180
How many times have we seen people on stage in Seattle, even Bernie Sanders is on stage and radicals take over and they're not the Bernie Sanders of the world or in these politicians, not radical enough.
00:51:29.120
You want more evidence that things are really kind of out of hand on the radical side.
00:51:35.400
If anybody, anybody actually believes that the Democratic, the people who are really involved in this process are not total radicals.
00:51:45.740
I want you to listen to what happened this weekend in California.
00:52:00.580
If we want to beat Donald Trump and achieve big progressive goals, socialism is not the answer.
00:52:21.100
Now, let's listen to Democrat John Delaney also running for president.
00:52:28.460
But we need, as Democrats, to build an economy that works, but it's got to be with smart policies.
00:52:36.560
Medicare for all may sound good, but it's actually not good policy, nor is it good politics.
00:52:54.520
We should have universal health care, but it shouldn't be a kind of health care that kicks 150 million Americans off their health care.
00:53:08.660
So both of them were booed because they both said, don't shut down private insurance.
00:53:30.040
The reason why I led with that is the guy coming up on stage.
00:53:35.040
There's one president that we lost, and we lost because he thought, the guy who killed him, thought that the president was a real radical.
00:53:48.540
And now this guy was also a little nuts, but don't you have to be to kill somebody else?
00:54:02.120
So this guy, and I don't remember what it was, but he wrote to the president, wrote to the president's people and said, hey, I've got this idea, and this will help you win.
00:54:13.440
And he heard the president use similar kinds of things, and there's no evidence that he took this guy's idea.
00:54:23.120
But this guy thought, ah, yeah, see, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's me.
00:54:29.480
And so the president's going to love me when I come down and I see him, because I gave him the winning strategy, and I've got some more stuff for him.
00:54:38.800
And I know he's going to reward me, and I want an ambassadorship to, like, I don't remember where it was.
00:54:44.440
So he goes into the White House, and he demands a meeting, and he gets one with the then, you know, equivalent of the chief of staff.
00:54:54.780
He just gets one because nobody knows what to do with him.
00:54:58.160
And so the chief of staff comes out, and he's caused all kinds of problems.
00:55:01.280
And the chief of staff says, you know, what is the deal, dude?
00:55:03.820
He's like, hey, the president used my philosophy.
00:55:06.320
And he's like, the president didn't use your philosophy.
00:55:11.980
He's going to want to meet with me, because he's going to want to appoint me to an ambassadorship, because I really helped him.
00:55:17.760
He's like, dude, the president doesn't want to meet with you, and he's not going to give you an ambassadorship.
00:55:23.340
And no, well, the guy left, and he felt as though this president was a fraud, and he had to be a fraud, because he said all these things, and now he's either denying that I helped him, which I know that he did, or he's sending these bullies out.
00:55:47.840
And you can't have bullies like this on your team if you're a good person.
00:56:05.700
The Democrats have gotten into bed with people, and what we're creating now is exactly what we warned about years ago with the French book, The Coming Insurrection.
00:56:19.620
The progressives decided that they would bring in the Marxists, the communists, the revolutionaries, the anarchists, and that they would use them to be able to further their agenda.
00:56:39.980
Well, they have used them, and those people know they've been used, and they were used willingly.
00:56:57.320
And what they're getting is more politics that are the same.
00:57:02.440
They're seeing that it's going to be a Joe Biden, which is basically, to them, a Hillary Clinton.
00:57:23.220
And if the Democrats don't continue to play nice and give them many things that they want, I mean, I don't know how long it lasts.
00:57:37.280
In France, it's lasted really since for about 30 or 40 years it's lasted.
00:57:43.080
And I don't think it's going to last that long here.
00:57:57.800
If the message of the Democratic Party is, okay, we're not going to take away your health care,
00:58:07.660
One, the radicals believe that they're only saying that.
00:58:13.900
Because they're a politician and they just have to get elected.
00:58:17.760
But every time they've heard that kind of talk.
00:58:21.660
And they've said, well, let's keep quiet because they're going to do these things.
00:58:28.900
So they're either going to say this person is just lying and he's on our side.
00:58:34.800
He's going to do these things, which if he doesn't do them when he is in the Oval Office or she is in the Oval Office, then she's even in more trouble.
00:58:44.060
Or they're going to say, like the Republicans have started to say, I'm not a Republican anymore because you guys are full of crap.
00:58:52.040
You don't say you don't do anything you say you're going to do.
00:58:55.820
But the problem is when it comes to the Republican, that usually means it's a family standing there, you know, you know, with their picture of Ronald Reagan or whoever.
00:59:12.040
We wanted lower taxes and they're not going to chop your head off.
00:59:15.480
They're not going to build a guillotine and they're not going to put fences up and throw smoke bombs and everything else.
00:59:23.080
The left has embraced those who do those things and like to do those things.
00:59:31.180
Once they cross the Rubicon with that and they are they are at the bridge.
00:59:36.400
I don't know if even they're on the bridge yet, but they are at the bridge ready to cross the Rubicon.
00:59:45.580
But once they cross it, the Democrats, as we know it, are over.
