00:00:00.000 A Safer Ontario means more police and prosecutors making sure my car doesn't get stolen.

00:00:30.000 welcome to friday we start with a charlie kirk trial um then i go to the war and i explain some
00:00:43.980 more um i used a lot of history today to teach um in fact with the charlie kirk trial i don't
00:00:52.480 know if it's going to make it to the best of but it's in the regular show i i told a story from the
00:00:56.740 1800s exactly the same thing has happened before we have to be very very careful on charlie kirk
00:01:03.780 and this trial but it does not look good for the guy who allegedly pulled the trigger and all of 0.56
00:01:11.080 those conspiracy theories now the jews did it all kind of going down the tube now aren't they
00:01:15.080 also uh with iran the man in the algiers hospital um and on socialism why doesn't it work you know
00:01:26.080 that has been tried in America in over a hundred different towns. I mean, honest to God, best case
00:01:34.120 scenario, try socialism. And I tell you a story of something that happened that had four presidents
00:01:40.060 involved in the thinking of it and listening and wargaming it out with the guy who went and did it
00:01:47.280 and he made New Harmony Indiana. And I tell you that story. And why would I tell you that story?
00:01:53.980 because the GOP is brain dead.
00:01:58.520 The DNC is the old school.
00:02:04.080 They're talking about old ideas
00:02:05.780 that nobody's interested in that.
00:02:08.600 They and the GOP are just protecting the machine.
00:02:12.440 We on, you know, if you're a supporter of MAGA
00:02:14.960 or you're kind of part of that Tea Party kind of mentality,
00:02:19.060 we're just trying to fix the voting
00:02:21.200 because we know that's crucial.
00:02:22.580 But the only one that's actually talking about the issues that people care about today are the democratic socialists.
00:02:29.880 And they're promising free stuff.
00:02:31.700 And that's going to win in the end if we don't understand socialism, how to show why it fails every time, and what is our message.
00:02:43.220 All of that on today's podcast.
00:02:52.580 You're listening to
00:02:54.880 The Best of the Glenn Beck Program
00:02:57.660 Alright, well
00:03:02.860 I thought we would
00:03:04.220 thought we'd start with something
00:03:06.540 you know, appropriate today
00:03:08.500 because we're going to talk about the Charlie Kirk
00:03:10.260 assassin
00:03:11.420 and of course, who really
00:03:14.500 did it

00:04:07.380 Pretty clear here.
00:04:08.340 Uh...
00:04:11.860 I can't take the John Lee Kirk thing.
00:04:14.740 My head's going to explode.

00:05:00.160 The Jews did it. 1.00
00:05:01.320 Hey! 1.00
00:05:02.800 The Jews did it. 1.00
00:05:04.360 It's Friday, and of course the Jews did it. 1.00
00:05:07.560 You know, wasn't it the Jews who first wrote down 1.00
00:05:11.180 that there was seven days in a week? 1.00
00:05:13.700 So they're responsible for so much that's going on. 1.00
00:05:17.760 every Monday every Monday just remember it was the Jews that gave you a Monday I don't know who 1.00
00:05:25.520 gave us Friday sure it kind of falls apart when you get a day you like but let's be consistent 0.94
00:05:30.520 the Jews did it um let me talk to you a little bit about what's going on in Provo Utah for 10 0.89
00:05:35.040 months now America has told the story of the murder of Charlie Kirk I mean it is it's more 0.71
00:05:41.100 than one story too which has been very interesting I mean you listen to some podcasters who are just
00:05:46.940 asking questions um and of course it was a deep state hit but it was a deep state hit 0.71
00:05:52.900 caused by the jews uh it was a false flag it was a crisis actor it was a convenient death
00:06:00.660 dressed up and assassinate as an assassination um one podcaster insinuated that maybe it was 0.75
00:06:07.180 my daughter that did it oh you caught me now so this week in the fourth district courthouse
00:06:14.960 Provo, Utah. None of those stories showed up, you know, none of them. It was weird. It was
00:06:23.200 really weird. When you look at the evidence, you're like, oh, wait a minute. Maybe it wasn't
00:06:27.220 my daughter. But actually what showed up was stranger, a little more terrifying because it
00:06:34.400 is more human than any of the, the Jews did it kind of stuff. The evidence has, you know, come 0.91
00:06:42.780 in now i mean real evidence the way it always comes in slowly under oath on screens surveillance
00:06:50.560 video of a young man crossing a rooftop dropping into the shooting position firing one round
00:06:55.680 through charlie kirk's neck while 3 000 people watched and then started to run also a grandfather's
00:07:02.720 bolt action mauser uh wrapped in a towel ditched in the woods there was dna there was ballistics
00:07:10.220 and then there was also the voice of the person who knew him best his trans lover the roommate
00:07:17.240 and partner lance twigs now lance was granted immunity interviewed on tape told investigators
00:07:24.860 what happened in the hours after uh the text under the keyboard the messages where robinson uh where
00:07:33.880 robinson was uh admitting that it was him and he felt really bad i wish i wouldn't have done it i
00:07:39.520 wish i would have done it you're not the one who actually did it are you yeah i did i couldn't
00:07:44.380 take it anymore you know those kinds of things and then the morning after where he was pacing
00:07:51.240 back and forth in the apartment crying i gotta turn myself in with my parents there were no
00:07:59.540 handlers no grand design no shadow directing the shot no shoes surprisingly showed up in this i was
00:08:06.040 shocked that it looks like it was this guy everything the state put on those screens points
00:08:13.800 to one person who made one irreversible choice now this is a preliminary hearing it's not a
00:08:21.500 verdict the defense is still challenging the dna and they should you know but the shape of it is
00:08:26.960 pretty darn clear you know and the shape is not a movie plot this is where it gets frightening it's
00:08:34.040 a kid they showed the bullets and this is the part where the camera really kind of rushed past i think
00:08:41.160 the casings were not engraved with a manifesto they were engraved with jokes
00:08:47.460 a furry forum meme an old italian protest song that you know has curdled into an internet gag 0.71
00:08:59.980 a throwaway insult if you read this you're gay i mao uh he then texted his partner that the
00:09:10.160 messages were mostly a big meme then he worried the meme might show up on fox news then he worried 0.96
00:09:18.100 in writing he worried more about how he's going to explain the missing rifle to his dad
00:09:24.220 than about the man he just left dead on the stage see this is what's terrifying here this is not
00:09:32.720 ideology this is a human soul dissolved in irony a young kid who marinated so long in the world
00:09:42.420 where everything is a bit every belief is just a costume every horror is just a punchline for
00:09:48.820 an audience that isn't even in the room. That he carved jokes into the rounds he used to kill a
00:09:55.840 father of two. He couldn't tell the difference between a meme and a murder until he had already
00:10:03.200 committed one. It's terrifying because that can happen to any of our kids. Now watch what the
00:10:12.520 whole country is doing with him. The left wants him to mean one thing. The right wants him to
00:10:16.640 mean another the conspiracy theorists want him to be a puppet of the jews and the people debunking
00:10:23.360 the conspiracy theorists want him to be a lesson everybody everybody is united in a single demand
00:10:29.680 that this death resolve into a clean story
00:10:33.360 and the evidence this week is quietly refusing i mean we know who the killer is but the killer
00:10:43.960 doesn't have a clean story just irony and a rifle and a daddy drifted away from and a joke
00:10:49.980 residing in the place where his conscience should have been
00:10:55.140 last night i spent some time looking for places in history where this sickness has happened before
00:11:12.000 The hunger to make a crime mean the thing you already believe.
00:11:18.500 And you can find it.
00:11:23.240 You can find it in the Boston Massacre.
00:11:28.040 John Adams.
00:11:29.900 Everybody wanted that Boston Massacre to mean one thing.
00:11:33.080 That the British were evil and the British were just shooting innocent Americans.
00:11:37.020 And that's when John Adams said that's not true.
00:11:38.980 And he was stubborn
00:11:40.380 And he tried it
00:11:42.300 And he proved that it wasn't true
00:11:44.460 But we're in a time now
00:11:49.940 Where everybody wants it to mean something
00:11:51.980 And what we have to be
00:11:56.820 Wanting
00:11:58.620 Is just the truth
00:12:00.920 Let the chips fall where they may
00:12:03.540 And it's pretty clear to see
00:12:05.880 Where the chips are falling
00:12:07.220 But I want to take you to France
00:12:10.180 And I want to tell you a story about a spy in France
00:12:13.960 Right around the turn of the century
00:12:16.220 This story is terrifying
00:12:20.720 Because it shows humans haven't changed
00:12:24.720 I'll show you here in just a second
00:12:27.540 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program
00:12:32.100 all right so let's start where i left this yesterday yesterday i told you that donald
00:12:39.660 trump is hunting he is actually hunting for something in iran and he's not hunting for
00:12:46.180 a moderate uh he is uh not hunting for a good man he is hunting for an albert spear you don't
00:12:53.440 know who albert spear is he was good friend of uh uh hitler uh he was the architect for hitler
00:13:00.640 a really bad guy, just escaped the noose in the Nuremberg trials because in the end, 0.65
00:13:07.740 he was the guy that Hitler said, I want you to do the Nero doctrine, which was burn everything down 0.83
00:13:14.540 in Germany. The German people had betrayed us and the West is not going to get their hands on 0.90
00:13:20.120 anything. So burn it all to the ground. And Albert Speer wanted to survive. He knew this was over. 1.00
00:13:27.640 You know, it was four weeks from the end and he was talking to Hitler. He's like, I don't think that's a good idea. You'll do it. Yes, sir, I will. And then he didn't. He actually became a roadblock and that's why he escaped the noose in the end. 0.77
00:13:46.160 so that's what he's looking for okay um now the question is what are the odds that this is going
00:13:53.780 to work what if this doesn't work what happens if there's nobody there to find so let's start
00:13:59.300 where we actually stand because it has moved since the beginning of this thing the bombs have
00:14:04.140 already fallen um ali khamenei is dead now killed in the opening strike back in february his son
00:14:11.600 apparently he's alive no real proof of that but installed inside of 10 days by the revolutionary
00:14:19.640 guard that wanted its own man in the chair before anybody could argue there's now a signed memorandum
00:14:25.460 60-day clock oil moving through Hormuz again and the thing that started all of this the enriched
00:14:32.500 uranium is still in the ground it's buried under sites that we cratered but we did not empty it
00:14:38.160 the stockpile is the whole game. Everything else is scenery here. So the spear that we need,
00:14:46.180 the Albert spear that we need, is now very, very specific. It's not a defector with a conscience.
00:14:54.140 Whatever or whoever is inside that battered structure decides to hand over the uranium
00:15:01.120 and let inspectors prove that it's gone
00:15:03.620 is what we're looking for.
00:15:06.240 Now, here's why it may not work.
00:15:10.300 So far, we don't see a lot of wavering
00:15:12.940 from China and Russia,
00:15:15.620 the patrons of Iran.
00:15:18.040 Putin has pledged unwavering support
00:15:19.840 for the sun within days.
00:15:21.500 Beijing warned everybody,
00:15:23.320 you know, hands off.
00:15:26.700 However, that has decayed
00:15:28.720 since the trip with Donald Trump.
00:15:30.460 He made some real good moves with Beijing, and he is in talks with Moscow now, and I'm not sure how solid their support for Iran really is.
00:15:43.660 But as long as Moscow and Beijing look like they're going to catch the regime if it falls, nobody on the inside of that regime is going to wake up and conclude that the ship is sinking.
00:15:54.340 Because from where he would be sitting, if he's got Beijing and he's got Moscow, it's not.
00:15:59.520 It's not going anywhere.
00:16:02.200 The man at the very top is the wrong man to reach for.
00:16:05.580 A hardliner who lost his wife and his felon family in the strike.
00:16:09.620 They made him the leader.
00:16:11.040 He's promised vengeance.
00:16:13.080 This is not hard arithmetic, okay?
00:16:15.660 But the 60-day clock cuts both ways. 0.97
00:16:18.280 It pressures the regime, but it also gives the regime time to find its own wavering men and shoot them.
00:16:25.020 That's the other thing that I think the Trump administration is looking for.
00:16:28.700 Are they shooting anyone inside of the team?
00:16:36.320 This has been done before, several times.
00:16:41.520 So let me take you back to the war in Germany.
00:16:46.840 1942, there's a hospital in Algiers.
00:16:49.680 There's a French admiral sitting in his son's bedside.
00:16:52.760 His boy had polio.
00:16:54.400 And the admiral is the single most important man in North Africa.
00:16:58.360 but he doesn't know it yet okay his name is francois darlin he's a collaborator 18 months
00:17:06.660 earlier he had gone on the radio and told france that german uh that germany was a much better
00:17:12.900 friend than britain would ever be he's vichy to the bone okay he's a collaborator with the germans
00:17:18.680 on the night of november 8th a hundred thousand american and british troops come out of the dark
00:17:25.600 onto the beaches of Morocco and Algeria in what was called Operation Torch.
00:17:31.480 Every one of those landings could turn into a bloodbath
00:17:35.640 because the French forces on that coast might fight.
00:17:41.860 That invasion had been wired for two years, not by a general,
00:17:46.520 but by Robert Murphy, a career State Department guy,
00:17:51.420 sent by Roosevelt as his personal man in North Africa.
00:17:55.600 And Murphy's cover really was a grocery list.
00:17:59.340 It was an agreement to ship American food and goods into the French colonies monitored by 12 new vice consuls, 12 amateurs, an Ivy League guy, wine merchants, and lawyers, oh, and a Coca-Cola salesman, all fluent in French, itching to be useful.
00:18:21.340 Washington called these guys the 12 apostles.
00:18:23.920 their real job was not providing groceries and coca-cola it was to move quietly through the
00:18:31.700 officer corps and take the temperature of every colonel and every general on that coast to find
00:18:38.220 the men who had changed sides when the day came okay and they had a hero picked out uh general
00:18:46.980 Henri Girard, I think.
00:18:50.020 He had escaped from a German prison,
00:18:52.380 smuggled into Gibraltar by submarine.
00:18:55.460 He was a clean guy, brave guy,
00:18:57.900 exactly what you would want on a liberation day, okay?
00:19:03.000 And when the moment came, Girard gave his orders
00:19:06.280 and the French officers looked at him and shrugged.
00:19:10.020 And here's why.
00:19:10.780 He didn't have the authority.
00:19:12.840 The good man that they had could not deliver.
00:19:16.980 Nobody listened to him.
00:19:18.820 The man who could deliver was the collaborator
00:19:22.120 at the hospital bedside.
00:19:25.020 He was the Vichy commander-in-chief.
00:19:28.360 He was the only guy whose word the troops would obey.
00:19:34.940 So Eisenhower's looking at this guy and he's like, 0.76
00:19:37.240 he is a collaborator with the Nazis. 0.98
00:19:38.980 He is horrible. 0.85
00:19:41.420 We have this other guy who was a hero.
00:19:44.000 He's perfect.
00:19:45.680 And nobody's going to listen to him.
00:19:46.980 so eisenhower said plug your nose make the deal recognize the guy at the bedside as the high
00:19:56.540 commissioner let him keep his chair in exchange he has to order the guns down he did the shooting
00:20:05.960 stopped the allies got their springboard into europe okay the american press lit eisenhower
00:20:14.240 on fire for it you are cutting a deal with a pro-nazi does any of this sound familiar
00:20:18.800 this is going to sound familiar i'm telling you you're making a deal with
00:20:22.560 the answer roosevelt and churchill gave was the coldest truest thing of the whole war
00:20:30.400 we're not here to reward a good man we are here to stop the shooting and get on with a beating
00:20:38.360 of germany so they looked at darlin as an instrument by the way six weeks later young
00:20:47.340 guy comes into his office and shoots him dead history moves on without him you know which is
00:20:53.220 about you know what a guy like that earns okay now take this back to terran
00:21:00.740 how does trump send the message that he needs a spear well he doesn't send the message you can't 0.95
00:21:10.060 stand at a podium and announce you're shopping for a traitor you'll get the honest men killed
00:21:14.140 and the regime put on alert so what roosevelt did was build a channel quietly
00:21:19.660 so when the crisis would come there was already a wire running to the men who might move that's
00:21:27.280 the work. And I'll bet you that we're not doing that work. I'll bet you the ones who probably
00:21:32.360 have the people in place to lay that path are the Israelis. But the Qataris, the Omanis, 0.86
00:21:40.160 they're doing back channels as well, I'm sure. Private assurances, personal and specific to
00:21:47.380 individual figures. Look, you're going to survive. You help, you'll survive. Your family will survive.
00:21:53.520 You know, your money will survive.
00:21:55.620 And you're going to be able to say, I'm the guy who saved Iran. 0.69
00:22:02.640 You have to hold a door open for one man at a time.
00:22:07.040 And you accept the thing that stung the newspapers in 1942.
00:22:12.920 The man who can deliver the uranium may be a man we may never want to stand next to. 0.51
00:22:18.960 The clean insider may not have the power.
00:22:22.100 the powerful insider
00:22:24.100 may not be clean
00:22:25.500 you don't get to pick the one you want
00:22:28.440 you take the one that can make
00:22:30.540 this stop
00:22:31.520 now the question is what if there's nobody there
00:22:36.680 well
00:22:38.380 the operation torch
00:22:39.660 it also answered this
00:22:41.440 if Murphy had come ashore with no channel
00:22:44.420 built, no apostles, no officers
00:22:46.460 cultivated, the landing would
00:22:48.480 have been a slaughter
00:22:49.740 and it would have happened because nobody had given anybody the chance to think that there
00:22:58.220 was a door out of that nobody inside is not a it's not weather that happens to you it's what
00:23:07.760 you get when you never built a channel or when you wait so long that the regime finds its own
00:23:13.700 darlings in the first place and purges them and kills them and now you're left negotiating with
00:23:18.700 a room full of believers. That's the North Korea ending, a room where everybody left 0.99
00:23:24.120 is a believer because the survivors are the ones who never wavered. 0.50
00:23:32.500 Now, I've been going over this the last week, and I've been doing a lot of thinking of this,
00:23:36.020 and I'm like, wow, is this really the best card that we have? I mean, is this it? And the answer
00:23:41.100 is yes, because all alternatives are worse than that, and it's not even close. The alternative
00:23:48.260 to finding iran's darlin is going back and digging through that or uranium by force and we just ran
00:23:56.740 that experiment it's not good it's not good um the strait of hormuz is shut oil markets are in a
00:24:04.940 panic largest emergency release of oil reserves in the history of the iea and the and at the end
00:24:12.420 of all of that, the stockpile is still in the ground. More war isn't the clean option sitting
00:24:19.600 next to the insider bet. It's the same gamble, but at a much higher price with the same lousy odds.
00:24:26.580 The Spears strategy isn't the hopeful play. It's the least bad play. So here's what Trump has to do.
00:24:35.480 and it's two things at once
00:24:37.860 and they only look like their intention
00:24:40.580 keep the pressure on
00:24:42.200 do what he's doing
00:24:43.340 hard, visible, unrelenting
00:24:45.980 diplomatic, economic
00:24:48.880 and military pressure
00:24:50.580 that's the only thing
00:24:52.800 that will build the private thought
00:24:54.840 inside the one guy's head
00:24:56.580 like this ship is going down 1.00
00:24:58.080 I'm going to be dead
00:24:59.000 and underneath it
00:25:00.620 run the quiet wire
00:25:01.960 I don't even know how we do that
00:25:03.160 but you keep an off-ramp open
00:25:05.000 personal credible so that some morning some senior man might look around and see the water is
00:25:11.560 this ship is sinking and he knows there's a lifeboat and he knows he's going to get him
00:25:17.420 and his family into that lifeboat the men who save countries at the end are not heroes they're
00:25:23.580 usually not heroes there's the survivors who decided one ordinary tuesday morning they'd
00:25:29.880 rather be remembered as the man who stopped the shooting than the man who went down with the ship
00:25:33.400 Trump's job is not to find the good men in Tehran 0.96
00:25:37.600 because he said they're all crazy 0.75
00:25:40.020 and I believe he believes that 1.00
00:25:41.760 they're all crazy 1.00
00:25:42.560 his job is to find the one crazy guy 1.00
00:25:46.200 who is more self-interested 0.97
00:25:48.740 who has done the math already
00:25:51.960 sees that the light is on
00:25:54.660 a welcome lifeboat is welcome for him
00:25:57.300 find that guy
00:25:59.560 now
00:26:00.700 why didn't we just keep hammering them why this 60 day thing president said something to me on
00:26:11.600 friday um that i think is really important that you understand because things can change for all
00:26:20.260 of us all over the world quickly overnight i'll explain that in 60 seconds this is the best of

00:26:37.620 High prices are here to stay. Gas, groceries, insurance. And if you're a homeowner,
00:26:41.940 you've probably thought, should I call American Financing to refinance and pay off this credit
00:26:45.500 card debt? And then you second guess yourself because of your current low mortgage rate.
00:26:49.360 Listen, that low rate, it's not saving you if you're drowning in credit card interest at 25%
00:26:53.600 or more. It's costing you thousands. And here's the truth. If you're only making minimum payments,
00:26:58.020 That debt will follow you for years.
00:27:00.180 That's why people are calling American Financing,
00:27:01.860 because they're saving customers an average of $800 a month
00:27:04.600 by using their equity to finally break free from credit card debt.
00:27:08.120 You owe it to your family to see what's possible.
00:27:10.520 No upfront fees, no pressure, and it costs you nothing to find out
00:27:12.920 if you could save something big every month.
00:27:15.060 And if you start today, you may be able to delay up to two mortgage payments.
00:27:18.320 So call American Financing, 800-906-2440.

00:28:32.700 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program,
00:28:34.660 and we really want to thank you for listening.
00:28:39.960 Well, here's the latest.
00:28:41.140 This came from an insider today.
00:28:44.080 They were talking about the sad, soggy dino, Mitch McConnell.
00:28:48.140 And I just thought that really, I mean, that piece of set to music.
00:28:51.560 It's Soggy Dino, Mitch McConnell in the rain
00:28:55.520 Mumbling through the ages, but they swear he's feeling no pain
00:29:01.240 Everybody's talking to him this week, 20 minutes deep
00:29:05.400 Solving all the problems while he stares into the deep
00:29:08.220 Am I the only one that hasn't had a 20-minute conversation with Mitch this week?
00:29:13.100 It's Soggy Dino, doing the prehistoric creep
00:29:17.140 Woke up to the spin, spoke to Mitch, 20 minutes sharp as a tack
00:29:23.840 He's quoting Shakespeare while the turtle just stares into the black
00:29:29.300 On camera he looks like a Jurassic Park exhibit left out in the rain
00:29:33.380 But privately he's Einstein, best chap they've ever had, they claim
00:29:39.400 Like your grandpa at Thanksgiving after too much eggnog
00:29:43.900 and applause. They all got the memo. He's fine, guys. Totally fine. Like fine wine left open
00:29:53.100 since the Reagan years. Aged just right. Sad Soggy Dino. Am I the only one? Sad Soggy Dino.
00:30:04.360 Still running the machine. Oh, he is. He's running that machine and he's so good at it.
00:30:10.900 And he is just fabulous, fabulous.
00:30:14.080 This is the problem with the Republicans.
00:30:16.520 Republicans are playing the same game the Democrats are playing.
00:30:19.160 Didn't we see this movie with Joe Biden?
00:30:22.160 No, he's sharp as a tack.
00:30:23.740 I just had a 20-minute phone call with him.
00:30:25.340 I mean exactly the same playbook.
00:30:27.640 And the Republicans are now doing it with Mitch McConnell.
00:30:30.000 Why? Because they have to have Mitch's vote.
00:30:31.900 They got to have it, got to have it, got to have it.
00:30:34.600 So let's just keep him alive as much as this.
00:30:36.600 i mean you get a when you get your your congressional pen you know or your senate
00:30:43.880 pen that you wear on your lapel it should come with a little drool cup now at this point
00:30:47.520 for the love of pete what are we doing and this is not going to appeal to any voter
00:30:53.660 no voter wants this let me just let me just lay this out for you
00:30:58.440 as i said you have the republicans and the democrats that are cut from the same cloth
00:31:04.620 all in denial that anything has changed they're operating honestly like they have operated the
00:31:09.840 whole time nothing has changed we control the machine nothing's going to move we'll tell them
00:31:15.380 what they want we'll just we'll just pass a you know we'll just bring up a flag burning amendment
00:31:20.800 and we'll get all the republicans and all of the then they'll be all in our corner again no we're
00:31:25.900 not buying that anymore you're not doing anything and what are we arguing for we're trying to get
00:31:31.520 them to pass voter id something that is so simple it should have been done months ago
00:31:37.940 so we can actually talk about the real issues like the price of a house
00:31:42.720 the price of groceries what are we doing on housing we're not talking about that because
00:31:52.560 we can't because we're trying to get basics done that are no-brainers which you'd think 0.91
00:31:58.460 they'd be able to do because i don't think the republicans have brains anymore so give us the
00:32:05.100 no-brainers like hey id when you go in to vote can you get that one done for us no apparently not 0.57
00:32:11.480 and so the ones who are doing something they're trying to work on that which stops us from talking
00:32:19.340 to voters who are not engaged at the level that you and i are engaged at every day they're worried
00:32:27.200 about the future they're worried about their kids being able to afford a house them being able to
00:32:32.720 afford a house a job etc etc who's talking about that well not the democrats the democratic
00:32:40.300 socialists are talking about it and it's being presented as a new and exciting idea and it's not
00:32:46.620 a new and exciting idea it's an old idea that never ever ever works and they've wrapped it up
00:32:53.200 into all this new language you know fairness and and uh equality and you know we're actually
00:33:01.160 having our kids talk about living on stolen ground show me an inch of the earth that hasn't
00:33:08.660 been taken from somebody else it that's the way of the world it's always been that way you want
00:33:15.260 to damn the united states then you have to damn everybody else but we're not talking about that
00:33:23.040 because we're just trying to get a fair election and the republicans are just trying to hold on 0.99
00:33:30.620 to their machine and the democrats are just trying to hold on to their machine and so all that's left
00:33:35.580 it's really talking about things that people care about like housing are the democratic socialists
00:33:41.300 let me tell you a story and i'm going to tell these every day because there are literally
00:33:47.980 hundreds of these stories. I could not believe I started doing my research on hundreds of these
00:33:53.840 stories in the United States. We take you back to 1825. This is before Marx, because socialism is
00:34:01.800 not a new idea. 1825, a rich man buys a town, very wealthy, and not a lot, not a block, an entire
00:34:11.100 town, 20,000 acres on the river in, or what is it, Wabash River in Indiana. He buys 180 buildings,
00:34:23.360 mills that are already working, orchards that are already bearing fruit, dormitories that have
00:34:28.820 already been built. He pays $150,000 for that. And that day in 1825, that was a fortune.
00:34:36.180 He was a very wealthy guy
00:34:38.900 His name is Robert Owen
00:34:40.520 And he didn't buy the town to get richer
00:34:42.560 He bought the town to prove a point
00:34:45.760 And here's the point
00:34:47.940 He believed that private property
00:34:50.400 Was one of the three great evils
00:34:52.620 The other two 0.99
00:34:54.080 Organized religion 0.85
00:34:55.720 And marriage
00:34:56.960 Does this sound familiar? 0.52
00:35:01.140 Organized religion 0.95
00:35:02.380 Marriage and private property
00:35:04.380 And he believed that if you take really good people and give them shared ownership of everything, you erase the line between what's mine and what's yours, they would stop competing and people would start cooperating and a new and better world would be born.
00:35:19.940 He called it New Harmony.
00:35:21.620 It still exists and it's an amazing town.
00:35:24.920 By the way, it's not socialist.
00:35:27.180 So this guy was not a crank on the corner street.
00:35:30.020 It's not Mom Donnie.
00:35:31.280 It's somebody who is, I mean, in that year, in February, he stood in the hall of the House of Representatives in Washington, D.C., and he laid his plan out for a society without private property.
00:35:43.600 And to show you how much of not a crank he is, sitting in that room were three former presidents of the United States, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, the sitting president, James Monroe, the incoming president, John Quincy Adams.
00:36:00.980 The most respectable audience socialism has ever had in one room on American soil.
00:36:10.140 He lays it all out.
00:36:12.420 He goes to Indiana and he builds it.
00:36:15.940 Now, he didn't fail because he was poor.
00:36:19.520 Remember, he was rich. 1.00
00:36:21.860 He didn't fail because the people that he had in the town were stupid. 1.00
00:36:25.880 He brought the finest minds in the country. 1.00
00:36:29.080 He had Thomas Say, the father of American entomology.
00:36:32.280 He had naturalists and educators and scientists,
00:36:35.100 all true believers who sold their businesses,
00:36:39.160 put all of their money into this,
00:36:41.660 moved their families across the wilderness
00:36:43.440 because they believed.
00:36:45.300 There was 900 of them,
00:36:47.280 and every single one of them was a volunteer.
00:36:49.940 Every one of them was there
00:36:51.700 because they wanted to be on paid-for land
00:36:55.060 with a working economy
00:36:56.900 that would be handed to them like a finished house
00:37:02.280 and they could all live in this utopia.
00:37:05.560 If cooperation could ever beat competition anywhere,
00:37:10.360 this is where it should have worked.
00:37:12.980 How long did it last?
00:37:16.760 Two years.
00:37:18.980 Why?
00:37:20.820 For the same reason it always collapses.
00:37:24.520 the people who worked the hardest looked around and saw the people who who were eating the same
00:37:31.580 bread sleeping under the same roof wearing the same clothes answered to the same nobody
00:37:37.600 we're not working and so they're like he's not working why am i working so hard so they stopped
00:37:43.600 working why wouldn't you production falls food starts to run short buildings begin to rot because
00:37:52.620 when everyone owns the mill, no one repairs the mill. No one loses when it breaks. No one gains
00:38:00.140 when it's fixed. So the meetings replaced the work. Owen wrote seven different constitutions
00:38:09.780 in two years, trying to legislate his way out of human nature. None of them held because human
00:38:16.360 nature is human nature one of the guys who was there was an inventor his name was josiah warren
00:38:23.260 and he walked away and spent the rest of his life on the opposite idea okay their united interests
00:38:29.900 he said were directly at war with the individualities of persons and the instinct of
00:38:37.000 self-preservation. That is a natural instinct. Preserve yourself, okay? And again, the collective.
00:38:47.380 He spends his whole life going, the collective doesn't work. Instinct to survive wins. It always
00:38:55.340 wins. Owen's own son who lived through the whole thing, he wrote later, any scheme that plays
00:39:02.060 the industrious and the idle exactly the same works on its own downfall now let me tell you
00:39:10.700 why i'm telling you that story i think it's pretty obvious but i want to be more clear on why i'm
00:39:14.780 telling you that story because something that is not new has arrived in america again so what do
00:39:22.540 we do about it you know look at except for war notice we don't have a problem with energy we're
00:39:28.380 not talking about the energy crisis except for the war we know what's causing our price of gas to go
00:39:33.800 up now why because he said drill baby drill free it all up that's what he's got to do on housing
00:39:42.280 and everything else free it up and on the rich the ones you're told to hate i'm not going to ask you
00:39:49.520 to feel sorry for a billionaire but i will ask you one question has envy ever built a house for you
00:39:55.100 has resentment ever lowered a single price for you or or filled a single job
00:40:01.320 the question is never if some man across town has too much the question is do you have a road
00:40:08.720 to more socialism offers you the warm feeling of pulling him down freedom offers you the road
00:40:15.440 to get it yourself only one path feeds those families come on america come on republicans
00:40:24.320 get on the message
